Chapter 202 The Hand Falling from the Sky
Ye Yang's spirits lifted, and he carefully used 'Resonance Spacetime' to sense his surroundings.
This range of perception is quite large.
Ye Yang didn't sense any other life force besides the two of them around him, so he confidently broke through the surrounding flesh and blood and emerged from the massive body of the mountain.
"Is this the inside of the Dragon Tower?"
Ye Yang looked around in surprise. The interior of the Dragon Tower was an incredibly vast world, with mountains, plains, and lakes.
Enveloped in a more abundant primordial cosmic aura, the plants and trees here are more resilient and vibrant than those on Dragon Tower.
"My mother told me that the baptism site was in a canyon in the first layer of the world, and warned me that I must never enter the second layer of the world, saying that only the peak of the world lord could enter the second layer of the world."
Fu Shan honestly replied, "She said that a dragon like me, who has just entered the realm of world lords, wouldn't survive a day in the second layer of the world."
"Is there a time limit?" Ye Yang asked.
Fu Shan replied, "Yes, all life forms that enter the Dragon Tower will be removed after one year, whether it's the first or second baptism, it only lasts for one year."
Ye Yang nodded. It's normal to have a time limit; otherwise, what's the point of talking about a first or second baptism?
If you cultivate within this Dragon Tower until you reach the peak of the Realm Lord level, you can continue to delve deeper.
"Let's go, let's go to your baptismal site first," Ye Yang said.
"The place of the first baptism is also the entrance to the second world," Fu Shan continued, recounting the information he had heard from his mother.
The man and the dragon quickly arrived at the canyon.
Standing on the ridge, Ye Yang looked down at the canyon below. He could only see pale purple clouds swirling around, making it impossible to see anything inside the canyon. "What are those purple clouds?" Ye Yang frowned.
It wasn't easy for him to get in, so he had to be extra careful. "I don't know either," Fu Shan shook his head.
Ye Yang then sent him to scout ahead—and soon discovered that the purple mist had the effect of promoting physical improvement and stabilizing one's foundation.
"Is the potential you damaged due to rapid leveling up being repaired?"
Hearing Fu Shan's words, Ye Yang was somewhat surprised. Even the mist that filled the entire valley had the effect of repairing the foundation of a Realm Lord. It seemed that the benefits inside were indeed considerable.
However, when Ye Yang entered the fog, he was choked and coughed repeatedly. He felt his eyes were dry, his throat was numb and itchy, and his skin was itchy.
"An allergy? No, it's that this purple mist is somewhat corrosive!"
Ye Yang glanced at Fu Shan, who was sitting there contentedly. Fu Shan was his soul slave and would not lie.
And judging from its current appearance, the fog is indeed of great benefit to it.
"It seems that due to their race, as an extremely special dragon race on Dragon Tower Star, their bloodline is closely related to this 'Dragon Tower'."
Therefore, it's understandable that this fog, which is unfriendly to humans but beneficial to the Thunder Dragon, is plausible.
Thinking about this, Ye Yang felt quite helpless.
He reluctantly released his first Golden Horn clone, but the result was the same: the mist was very irritating and somewhat corrosive.
The man and the dragon arrived at the edge of a lake. The lake radiated seven-colored light from its depths, appearing dreamlike amidst a vast purple mist.
"Master, this is it. This lake has the effect of purifying impurities and refining bloodlines," Lei Longfushan said with some anticipation.
"Oh?"
Looking at the lake's purplish-red water, Ye Yang, having learned from his previous experience, felt that the lake water might also be unfriendly to him.
As the mountain stepped into the lake, its muscles began to contort and even explode, yet it emitted a groan of unparalleled enjoyment on a spiritual level.
From Ye Yang's perspective, he could see that a certain transformation was taking place deep within its life genes.
"So amazing?" Ye Yang couldn't help but reach out and dip his hand into the lake water.
A few bubbles appeared, but I didn't feel anything—because the hand instantly turned into bones.
Ye Yang's face darkened. This lake was a place full of highly toxic and corrosive substances for humans!
Looking at the seven-colored light beneath the lake, even if there were benefits, I probably wouldn't be able to get them.
"Fushan, try diving down and see what those seven-colored lights are?" Ye Yang ordered after Fushan finished its transformation.
While Ye Yang was diving down to the bottom of the lake, he took some lake water to the Immortal Alliance world to see what the laws of energy would mutate into.
When they arrived in the Immortal Alliance world, the lake water turned into ordinary sewage, with extremely high levels of various pollutants, making it no different from the water in a stinking ditch!
Soon, the mountain floated up and handed some glowing stones from the bottom of the lake to Ye Yang.
Upon testing, it turned out to be just an ordinary energy crystal.
"The first layer of the world probably doesn't offer any real benefits, except for this lake, which is beneficial for the evolution of the dragon race on Dragon Tower Star."
Ye Yang felt somewhat helpless.
This lake water does indeed have the effect of purifying blood.
But the purified bloodline is the bloodline of the Dragon Clan of Dragon Tower Star!
There might be one in ten thousand 'bad bloodline' in Fu Shan's body, but it would be purified and eliminated once he entered.
Ye Yang, on the other hand, possessed 100% "bad bloodline," and soaking in this lake water directly purified all his flesh and blood.
"We can only proceed to the second layer of the world—"
The entrance to the second world is nearby; the lake's water comes from a stream that originates deeper within the purple fog.
The man and the dragon followed the stream deeper and soon arrived at a huge rock archway.
The archway emitted a faint purple light, leading to an unknown world.
Since the second level of the world was extremely dangerous, Ye Yang didn't let Fu Shan go to scout ahead, but instead went in himself.
Passing through the world passage formed by the archway, Ye Yang arrived at the second level of the Dragon Tower.
The first thing you see is a torrential downpour.
In the heavy rain—on the mountains and in the plains, golden dragon skeletons lay prostrate on the ground.
These are the remains of world lords!
What shocked Ye Yang the most was the sky—? The gloomy sky was filled with heavy rain, but there was one spot in the sky that was not like that.
A giant hand descended from the sky, piercing through the clouds and bringing slivers of light to its edge.
The surface of this large hand is covered with silvery-white scales, and you can even see countless complex patterns on the scales.
Unlike humans, the tips of the thumbs are sharp, pointed blades!
That single hand exuded an overbearing will, which surged into Ye Yang's consciousness the moment he looked up.
Long!
It was as if there was a roar in his ears, but Ye Yang only frowned slightly.
The giant hand was extremely far away from him, so the impact on Ye Yang's will was only equivalent to the peak level of a Realm Lord.
This was a test of will, not a pressure on consciousness, so I easily withstood it.
"What kind of being is this? A cosmic sovereign? A cosmic overlord?"
"The will emanating naturally from a single hand, even from such a great distance, is comparable to that of a Realm Lord?"
Ye Yang held his breath slightly, as if afraid of disturbing this great being.
But then he noticed that the dragon marrow around him was moving.
"How can dead corpses move? What's the underlying principle?"
He frowned as he watched one of the dragon corpses that had gotten up first stagger toward him, and he made the first move.
After three moves, the skeleton was shattered into pieces on the ground.
"His strength is equivalent to that of a second or third-tier World Lord."
Ye Yang looked at the other skeletal monsters that were still approaching this side:
"No wonder it's said to be dangerous here. There's a constant assault on the mind by wills comparable to the peak of a World Lord, and a large number of World Lord-level monsters attacking from above."
"This is indeed very troublesome; only a true powerhouse at the peak of the Realm Lord level could resolve it."
Instead of continuing the fight, he used his movement skills to move among the monsters.
The skeletal monster seemed to be unconscious and lacked intelligence, so it was easily overtaken by Ye Yang, a small human.
"My willpower far surpasses that of ordinary realm lords, making it difficult to continue progressing at my current level."
"But in the second layer of this Dragon Tower, there exists an environment where only pure willpower is challenged! Perhaps we can use this environment to hone our skills."
Ye Yang had this idea.
That giant hand descending from the sky is very likely already a corpse, after all, this is inside the core territory of humanity, in the Primordial Secret Realm.
How could a powerful being from another race possibly survive here?
Even if they didn't die, they were definitely under suppression.
Ye Yang mustered his courage and began to explore this second layer of the world.
When he encounters skeletal monsters that he has "awakened," he uses his agility to escape.
These monsters, which are not very intelligent, will stop bothering you once you leave a certain area.
Using this characteristic, he lured a large area of skull dragons to one place by "luring monsters" and then quickly shook them off.
They wandered around aimlessly for a moment, then lay down and remained motionless.
Ye Yang then carefully observed the world within this area.
Aside from torrential rain, there is no other kind of weather in this world. Under the scouring of the rain, all the mud and sand are washed away, leaving only bare rocks.
Ye Yang wandered around the perimeter for a few days without making any discoveries, so he turned his attention to the hanging hand.
"Let's see how far my willpower can hold out."
He began to move downwards from where the large hand was located.
The closer you get to that giant hand, the lower the chance of the skeletal monster appearing.
When Ye Yang was still 80 kilometers away from the giant hand, he felt that the impact of the will had put a lot of pressure on him, so he slowed down.
Fortunately, at this distance, there were almost no skeletal monsters around.
When the distance is reduced to 400,000 kilometers, the impact on one's will increases fourfold!
"I'm almost at my limit," Ye Yang had to stop flying and land on the ground to walk.
Finally, at a distance of 38 kilometers, it reached its limit.
"This is ten or even a hundred times more painful than fusing with the Blood Crystal, but this is exactly what I wanted!"
"My only Achilles' heel is my consciousness and will!"
"As long as my will doesn't crumble, I am immortal as I devour the world!"
Ye Yang worked hard to concentrate his consciousness and will.
Growth is always faster when facing pressure.
Under this continuous impact of his extreme will, Ye Yang could feel that the progress of tempering his true intent was gradually starting to rise again.
Now that we have reached the third stage of true Nirvana, every step forward is not easy!
It's not just about the lack of time to mature, but also about the change in mindset.
The further you go, the higher you stand, the harder it is to break through your own limitations!
Unless one sees higher mountains and larger oceans, realizes one's own insignificance, and recognizes the gap, one can not make targeted improvements and grow.
As time passed, Ye Yang moved forward steadily, step by step.
There was no sudden leap, no transformation, only steady and slow progress.
