“D-Did he just make it through?”

The humanoid Statue Shen Ji glanced at the initial position on the third floor of the Black Tower, then at the ‘end point’ where Lin Yuan was now standing, finally realizing something.

“How was it so fast?”

The humanoid Statue Shen Ji was incredulous. He had long suspected Lin Yuan had made some breakthrough to dare continue onto the third floor of the Black Tower.

After all, the third-floor challenge was different from the first and second floors, where challengers had to withstand ubiquitous pressure.

This pressure could be used to temper oneself, but the third floor? The test was about occupying the Spatial Layers, a rigid standard: either you could, or you couldn’t.

So, when Lin Yuan descended again, the humanoid Statue Shen Ji was certain he had made a significant breakthrough.

If he had not improved, Lin Yuan wouldn’t have needed to come back.

But this breakthrough… it was terrifying.

Even though the humanoid Statue Shen Ji had witnessed the Magic Jade Tower’s glorious era, he was still startled by Lin Yuan’s speed in conquering the tower.

The humanoid Statue Shen Ji could confirm that the essence of Lin Yuan’s mind and will still resided at the ninth tier.

But, a ninth-tier could clear the third floor of the Black Tower within a second? According to the standards left by the Moyu Tower Master back then, the difficulty of the third floor corresponded to special ninth-tier entities that had developed eighty to ninety million layers, or even straightforward tenth-tier beings.

Among ninth-tier beings, even those who had developed nearly a billion spatial layers had to be extremely cautious, continually shifting through the layers to evade the omnipresent pressure in an attempt to clear the third floor of the Black Tower.

But Lin Yuan?

The humanoid didn’t know how to describe Lin Yuan’s speed in conquering the tower because he didn’t even use any time; he simply took a step to reach the ‘end point.’

“How many layers of space did he occupy?”

The humanoid Statue began to backtrack the image, repeatedly slowing down the step Lin Yuan had taken.

In the main space, Lin Yuan had taken a simple step, yet instantly occupied innumerable spatial layers, with at least over five hundred million layers simultaneously controlled.

It was precisely due to this that Lin Yuan could effortlessly cover the distance from the third floor’s initial position to the end point of the Black Tower.

“This monster…” The humanoid Statue Shen Ji repeatedly shook his head.

Freak.

Such a freak.

*If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, the humanoid Statue Shen Ji would never have believed that such a freak as Lin Yuan could be born in just a single universe.*

Those who could develop more than five hundred million spatial layers were indeed heard of during the Magic Jade Tower’s illustrious period, but how long had it been since Lin Yuan stepped into the ninth tier until now?

Whoosh.

The humanoid Statue Shen Ji’s form appeared at the ‘end point’ of the Black Tower’s third floor. As the guardian of the nine-story Black Tower, he had the authority to appear on any floor.

“Little one, you are the fastest ninth-tier being to clear the third floor.” The humanoid Statue Shen Ji managed a smile as he spoke.

The reason he limited the scope to the ninth tier was that the beings who had cleared the third floor of the Black Tower included tenth, eleventh, and even twelfth-tier ultimate beings.

“Do you want to attempt the fourth floor?” the humanoid Statue Shen Ji suddenly asked.

If it were any other ninth-tier being, he definitely wouldn’t have asked this question after they cleared the third floor.

The Black Tower’s third floor primarily targeted tenth-tier beings, and a few ninth-tier entities who had developed nearly a billion spatial layers had a chance of clearing it.

And the Black Tower’s fourth floor targeted tenth-rank summit beings and eleventh-tier beings, the fifth floor was for eleventh-tier beings who had comprehended the complete Rule of Time, and the sixth floor was for those eleventh-tier beings who had begun to merge the Rule of Time with the Space Rules.

As for the seventh, eighth, and ninth floors of the Black Tower…Only twelfth-tier beings, or ultimate powerhouses, could clear them.

The leap from the ninth to the tenth tier was a major realm transition, a qualitative change; even if a ninth-tier being had developed a billion, tens of billions of spatial layers, they could not clear the fourth floor of the Black Tower.

Because the fourth floor of the Black Tower tested not the occupation of spatial layers.

“Okay.” Lin Yuan nodded. He wanted to see what the fourth floor of the Black Tower was like.

It would be good if he could make it through; if not, there was nothing to lose.

Whoosh.

Lin Yuan’s form disappeared, appearing on the fourth floor of the Black Tower.

“The test of this floor is…” Lin Yuan’s expression tightened slightly, “time?”

With his current understanding of the Rule of Time, he immediately noticed the variations in time flow between different regions on the fourth floor.

In some regions, time flowed faster; in others, it flowed slower; in some, time simply paused.

There were even regions where time seemed to be slowly reversing.

“Let me see.”

Lin Yuan observed carefully for a while, then took the first step.

…

Outside the Black Tower, seeing this scene, the humanoid Statue’s expression subtly changed, “This little one has highly developed insights into the Rule of Time, too?”

The humanoid Statue Shen Ji was utterly shocked. *The Rules of Time… Ninth-tier beings could indeed sense time fluctuations, but they were far from comprehending them.*

Generally speaking, only tenth-tier beings started to sense the Rule of Time. Now, as Lin Yuan stepped across regions with warped time, his grasp of the Rule of Time was no less than that of those tenth-rank summit beings.

“How on earth did this monster cultivate?”

*The humanoid Statue Shen Ji was puzzled. In such a short time, even if he had entered a place with exaggerated time flow, it shouldn’t have resulted in such rapid cultivation progress.*

After about half an hour.

Lin Yuan, with a cautious expression, finally arrived at the ‘end point’ of the Black Tower’s fourth floor after traversing the last region where time reversed.

“Made it through.” A smile appeared on Lin Yuan’s face.
