Chapter 806: Chapter 491: Trial Tower Town

Ten years have passed.

Yang Qiangjing still hasn’t been able to break through the 90th floor.

After clearing the 80th floor, on the 81st floor, the Trial Tower would once again transport her to the Demon Realm, with the task being to survive for 10 days.

Each day is a level.

After 10 days, she could reach the 91st floor.

Back then, when Yang Qiangjing first entered, she was immediately targeted by a Foundation Establishment Flower Demon upon opening the door. She used a tank to blast a hole in the big Flower Demon’s belly, and then a drone went over and bombed it into bits.

She thought she was safe, but it resulted in attracting more Foundation Establishment demons.

Yang Qiangjing’s brain quickly worked out… she couldn’t win.

With her abilities combined with firearms, handling one Foundation Establishment Demon was manageable, two or three would require a fight.

But being targeted by around a dozen Foundation Establishment demons… that was death.

Afraid of getting badly injured and affecting her plans for the next year, she chose to exit the challenge directly.

The second year, she made more thorough preparations, maneuvering a swarm of drones in, but after taking out ten Foundation Establishment demons… she was noticed by more and had no choice but to withdraw with regret.

The third year, she tried a different approach by stealth, but lacking strength… she was quickly spotted, and after a day of desperate escaping, she failed.

In the sixth year, she designed a more novel mechanism fortress, using Second Grade Spirit Materials as a base, creating a fortress with defense comparable to Third Grade. Upon entering, she quickly assembled it with Mechanical Insects, using it as a base, unifying three forces, harnessing extremely high Spiritual Sense to control avatars and the Heart Demon avatar of ‘I Split Pill’, supplemented by Mechanical Insects, deploying heavy firepower to safeguard Athena.

This time, she persisted the longest, a full three days, firing all the bullets in her stock, taking down 50 Foundation Establishment demons, but ultimately collapsed…

It was also this time that made her realize that head-on clashes with Foundation Establishment demons using firearms was not feasible, as the massive commotion from firearms would only attract more Foundation Establishment demons, resulting in downfall.

In the following years, she tested some other methods, but none were ideal.

Throughout these ten years, she kept tweaking strategies and optimizing combat techniques, but the longest she managed was three days…

The 83rd floor had become her limit.

After all, she was merely a Qi Cultivation sixth-level cultivator, and she studied many miscellaneous techniques, so her combat power was far weaker than Foundation Establishment demons. Once caught in close quarters, she had no ability to resist and could only be forced to withdraw.

Oh, and Yang Qiangjing realized she would always end up facing Foundation Establishment demons, and with her current firepower, there wasn’t much fundamental difference between demons at Qi Cultivation first level and Qi Cultivation ninth level… so she began to advance rapidly in cultivation.

During these ten years, she cultivated from Qi Cultivation first level to Qi Cultivation sixth level.

If not for the many preparations regarding the establishment of the Danai Dynasty, her realm might have been one level higher, after all, she was a genius cultivator with Dual Spirit Roots.

A family darling like Yang Feng only needed to focus on cultivation, whereas Yang Qiangjing had much more to consider.

Upon hearing this, Yang Qiangzheng had a question.

“Strange… so what exactly do levels 81~90 test for? Crossing realms to kill? That’s too outrageous, the gap between Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment isn’t that pronounced, and it is possible, as many prodigies have existed before… but if Foundation Establishment cultivators were to challenge Golden Core demons??? That’s simply impossible! In a one-on-one, perhaps a genius could transcend realms and defeat, but killing a Golden Core? Too difficult… I know Murong Ancestor defeated Golden Core cultivators during Foundation Establishment but had no records of slaying them, right? Are Golden Core cultivators supposed to fight Nascent Souls???”

Yang Qiangzheng gaped in astonishment, feeling the matter was incredibly absurd.

Crossing realms to kill is fine, but you should do it one by one!

81 one, 82 one, perhaps human clan top prodigies can exert maximum effort to achieve.

But thrown into the Demon Realm, surrounded by demons a whole realm higher, how to deal with that?

“I’m not smart, but… I can deduce that, even I… can’t complete this 10-day challenge.”

Yang Qiangzheng was indeed at the Foundation Establishment stage.

“Once… I, too, wondered what was truly being tested in these ten days, Crossing realms to kill? Stealth? Movement techniques? Defense? It wasn’t until recently that I roughly grasped the meaning of these ten days, realizing… I can’t successfully challenge it now, Brother, only you can.”

Yang Qiangzheng: “?”

…

Half a month later, Yang Qiangzheng arrived outside the Ancient Secret Realm in Devil Wind Forest.

The annual group challenge of the Ten Thousand Realms Trial Tower had become the biggest event of the entire Danai Dynasty each year.

Unlike the earlier days when everyone was tense, wary of demon clan ambushes, while also letting the Yang Family allocate entrance order, it was completely different now.

After experiencing several timely ambushes by the demon clan, the four major factions of the Danai Dynasty reached a unified agreement.

They must seize the territory at the Ancient Secret Realm’s entrance, establishing a city with defense there, and connect with the primary activity areas of the human clan.

Currently, there are four activity areas for humans.

Coffin Town of the Yin Family.

Wood House Matrix of the Liu Family.

Demon Suppression Mountain of the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect.

And the biggest and strongest… Bright City!

Ten years, in the years of Immortal Cultivators, were like the blink of an eye, passing swiftly.

But as a frontline battlefield, wars and changes occurred at every moment, vastly different compared to ten years ago.

Firstly, the Yin Family and Liu Family, after observing for several years, seem to have set down a strategy to stay long-term in the Danai Dynasty, gradually deploying more personnel since nine years ago.
