Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

690. Charging Through Eight Levels

With a hum, Lin Fei's figure twisted, and then, when he reappeared, he had arrived at the second level of the Forbidden Tower. This level, much like the first, was populated by numerous Supremes, albeit in lesser numbers.

Despite being only the second level, many Supremes still failed to conquer the first; those too weak for Lin Fei seemed formidable adversaries to many, insurmountable despite their best efforts.

Upon reaching the second level, Lin Fei once again attracted attention. After all, he was no longer an unknown; his reputation in the Chaos was now illustrious, having effortlessly slain top-tier Supremes.

"It's Supreme Lin Fei. He's reached the second level of the Forbidden Tower."

"He'll probably reach the third level soon," whispered the Supremes.

Lin Fei did not immediately act. He was still reflecting on the reward he received after conquering the first level—yes, he had received a reward. However, such a reward was trivial to him.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"A cultivation technique of the Supreme level?"

A technique materialized in Lin Fei's mind. He examined it carefully, hoping to discover something unique. Yet, after careful consideration, he was disappointed; it was just an ordinary cultivation method. But that was to be expected from just the first level of the Forbidden Tower—ordinary and normal.

Lin Fei was not particularly disheartened. "Let's see what the second level of the Forbidden Tower has to offer in terms of rewards."

With that thought, Lin Fei stepped directly into the combat zone of the second level. With a swish, his figure flickered and then vanished. He knew he had been transported to another separate space. However, this time he was experienced and thus remained calm, quietly waiting for his opponent.

The opponent on the second level of the Forbidden Tower would undoubtedly be stronger. Lin Fei sensed a faint hint of danger, but before he could see anyone, a streak of golden light flew directly toward him.

"Boom."

The golden light smashed against Lin Fei's Eternal Light.

Lin Fei reached out and grabbed it, and it turned out to be a short sword.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh."

Simultaneously, one short sword after another turned into golden light, flying crazily towards Lin Fei.

Lin Fei easily countered the barrage of short swords controlled by the distant special Supreme. Each of these blades was as formidable as a Supreme in its own right, and their combined assault would have overwhelmed any ordinary Supreme.

"Extinguish!"

For Lin Fei, however, such an attack was trivially easy to repel. This level of assault was incapable of breaching his defenses. With a mere flick of his hand, Lin Fei directed the Eternal Light to sweep across the area. The radiant wave engulfed the mysterious Supreme.

With a wet sound, the next moment, the Supreme was obliterated by Lin Fei's Eternal Light, reduced instantly to dust. Lin Fei's figure subtly shook as he found himself back on the second level of the Forbidden Tower. Before him, a staircase leading to the third level materialized.

In his hand, almost imperceptibly, appeared a cyan fruit.

"The Flesh Essence Fruit?" Lin Fei murmured to himself. "It can enhance the physical body, making a Supreme's flesh stronger. Indeed, a treasure, but seemingly of no use to me..."

He had received another reward from the second level of the Forbidden Tower—a Huayuan Fruit capable of enhancing a Supreme's physical body. However, Lin Fei's physical form was already of the Eternal Realm. How could it be further enhanced? At least, not by a single Flesh Essence Fruit.

Lin Fei continued his ascent, stepping calmly up the staircase toward the third level of the Forbidden Tower. Soon, he reached the third level, and, just like the first and second levels, Lin Fei effortlessly overcame his opponent.

The same pattern continued through the fourth, fifth, and sixth levels...

"The eighth level—latest news, Supreme Lin Fei has entered the eighth level!"

"Has he really reached the eighth level? That's the limit only the most top-tier Supremes can challenge."

"Just one more step to the ninth level, and so far, only the Supreme of Doomsday has made it past."

"Can Supreme Lin break into the ninth level of the Forbidden Tower, just like the Supreme of Doomsday?"

"Unlikely! The Supreme of Doomsday is an Invincible Supreme, after all. Supreme Lin Fei is certainly strong, but is he an Invincible Supreme?"

"Indeed, the difference between a top-tier Supreme and an Invincible Supreme isn't just in title. There's a monumental gap in strength."

"The eighth level of the Forbidden Tower is likely Supreme Lin's limit."

Many Supremes kept a keen eye on Lin Fei's progress.

With a swish, Lin Fei now appeared on the eighth level of the Forbidden Tower.

On the eighth level, there was only one Supreme present. This Supreme sat cross-legged, seemingly in meditation or adjusting his state. Not everyone could breeze through the Forbidden Tower like Lin Fei. Many Supremes needed thorough preparation and certainty of success before daring to challenge the tower.

This Supreme was unknown to Lin Fei. Upon Lin Fei's arrival at the eighth level, the seated Supreme glanced at him. While Lin Fei did not recognize this person, the other clearly knew who Lin Fei was.

"Supreme Lin. The eighth level of the Forbidden Tower confronts you with a foe nearly as powerful as an Invincible Supreme. Moreover, this opponent is decisive and lethal; a moment's carelessness could lead to death. If you are not strong enough, do not force it. Otherwise, you might die." This Supreme kindly warned Lin Fei. The eighth level was not easily conquered.

"Infinite proximity to an Invincible Supreme?" Lin Fei's eyes sparkled with a sharp gleam.

"Is it a real living being?" Lin Fei inquired further. He had progressed through the tower, facing many opponents—some of whom were not alive, while others were genuine living beings.

"It is alive!" The Supreme confirmed.

Lin Fei nodded thoughtfully, yet he resolutely stepped into the combat area.

"Boom."

As soon as Lin Fei entered the combat zone, he was again transported to an unfamiliar space, a vast one at that. Looking up, Lin Fei saw a formidable Chaotic Behemoth looming before him.

Yes, a Chaotic Behemoth—adorned with tentacles yet covered in spines like a hedgehog, exuding faint traces of a destructive aura. It was a creature that many Supremes dared not provoke, being nearly at the level of an Invincible Supreme, making it one of the most formidable existences among Chaotic Behemoths.

However, Lin Fei simply smiled upon seeing this scene. To him, a genuine living Chaotic Behemoth was not a threat but an opportunity. Not just an opportunity—it was like a gift enhancing the foundation of his Eternal Realm, potentially accelerating his cultivation progress within the Eternal Realm.

As for the opponent's closeness to an Invincible Supreme? Lin Fei paid it no mind. He had battled true Invincible Supremes before; what was a nearly Invincible Supreme Chaotic Behemoth to him?

Thus, Lin Fei smiled.

He stood motionless, yet the Eternal Light had already begun to spread, rolling out toward the distant Chaotic Behemoth.

"Swoosh."

The Eternal Light flashed past. The Chaotic Behemoth struggled only briefly before its massive body vanished, swept away into the Eternal Realm by Lin Fei in a single motion.
