On the Seven Towers

"Why doesn't he leave? Master Banderas said that his spiritual power is very vast, far beyond that of ordinary people. But now he is only at the twelfth level." Celinda saw Xiao Chen standing on the steps, with his eyes closed and motionless, just standing there quietly.

"A mage should seize every opportunity to understand the way the world works. He finally did not waste this path of spiritual cultivation. It is best not to disturb him now." Master Kona said.

He summoned a golem and came to Xiao Chen to guard him.

"Let's go, maybe we should come after lunch. I have a feeling that this will be a long wait."

However, Xiao Chen stood there for much longer than Master Kona expected. After lunch, Celinda came to see him twice more, and Xiao Chen still stood there motionless, without even changing his expression.

However, for Xiao Chen himself, he was so focused at this moment that he was completely unaware of the passage of time. He was just concentrating on thinking and trying how to release the meditation space.

Xiao Chen slowly realized that if he wanted to project the meditation space like he projected ordinary mental power, his consciousness must be able to observe both real time and the meditation world, which requires splitting the consciousness into two. And this is the way to move from the intermediate level to the advanced level, the separation of the mind.

Xiao Chen had not learned the secret method of the separation stage, so he could only find a way to do it himself. Xiao Chen was like a child who got a Rubik's Cube for the first time, constantly trying various possibilities. After failing countless times, he suddenly found a trace of feeling at the moment of entering and exiting the meditation world, relying on the barrier of the meditation world...

Another hour passed, and strange changes occurred around Xiao Chen.

The first thing that came was the sound, the clattering sound, like the waves in the distance. Then, with Xiao Chen as the center, a circle of blue phantoms appeared around him. The phantom was like a sphere that wrapped Xiao Chen in it, with a radius of more than one meter. The blue was fluctuating, as if he had summoned a water ball.

"It's actually the meditation space that is projected..." Master Kona sensed the changes around Xiao Chen through the golem at the first time and appeared above the stairs.

Xiao Chen opened his eyes at this time, and he looked around curiously. At this time, his state of consciousness was very strange, as if he was half in the meditation world and half outside the meditation world. He could perceive things in the meditation world and the real world at the same time, and the two images intertwined in front of his eyes.

The blue shadow around him was just a corner of the sea in the meditation world, but it was enough to resist all mental attacks.

He nodded to the golem on the side to express his gratitude, and then started running.

He ran up quickly in the surprised eyes of the people around him. Twelve floors, thirteen floors... He ran all the way up, the attacks around him became stronger and stronger, and the meditation space around him became smaller and smaller. When he ran to the seventeenth floor, the meditation space had become a layer of blue light that could only slightly penetrate his body. Xiao Chen felt that he had reached his limit, and the meditation space was not enough to resist the invasion of mental attacks. He felt a pain in his abdomen, and an ice spear formed by an illusion had already pierced his abdomen.

"The trial can be over, come to me." Master Kona's voice appeared in Xiao Chen's ears. He suddenly felt dizzy, and he disappeared from the road of soul refining and appeared in a reception room.

The room was simply furnished, with only a coffee table and chairs in the middle of the room, and a few low cabinets around it.

A middle-aged man with a stern look stood in the middle of the reception room, looking at Xiao Chen quietly.

"Who are you?"

"Kona, the master of the Soul Refining Tower." The middle-aged man said, "Mr. Xiao Chen, you have taken the opportunity of the Soul Refining Road to gain some insights, which is good."

"The golem that guards me was arranged by you, right? I am very grateful for this." Xiao Chen bowed slightly.

"Your meditation space is an ocean? I didn't expect that I would have the chance to see a meditation space descend into this world."

Xiao Chen was shocked and asked, "Do you know the meditation space?"

Master Kona pointed to the seat and said, "Sit down."

The two sat down face to face, and a smile appeared on Master Kona's cold face. He said, "Not only do I know that it is a meditation space, I also know that you have the inheritance of the Dream Tower and the Soul Forging Tower, and some of your spells were learned from the Saint Mage Antonio Gregorio."

"I just got some scattered inheritances by chance." Xiao Chen said calmly. The other party saw him so clearly that there was no point in lying.

"Coincidence?" Master Kona shook his head and said, "It was fate that made me see you."

"Do you think my appearance here is destined?"

"When you reach my level and know a lot of things, you will have a feeling that there is a force behind the world. Many things happen for their meaning and purpose. When I saw the spiritual barrier magic, I suddenly understood a lot of things. Your coming to the capital and the Royal Magic Tower has become a very interesting thing."

"I don't quite understand."

Master Kona nodded and said, "Speaking of which, do you know the origin between us?"

Xiao Chen said, "I know that the inheritance of the Soul Forging Tower comes from the Dream Tower, and the Spirit Refining Tower..."

"That's right. Rafael Gomez, the creator of the Tower of Refining Gods, is also the magician of the Tower of Dreams. He is Antonio Gregorio's junior brother. When the God-killing War failed, the Tower of Dreams finally The powerful magicians disappeared into the God Realm. They were the only two holy magicians left in the Dream Tower. They realized that the situation was over, so they dismissed the middle and low-level magicians in the Dream Tower and hid the Dream Tower. . Then he took several great magicians to escape from the pursuit of the Natural Temple."

"The Tower of Dreams actually still exists?" Xiao Chen asked.

"No one knows. But there is no record that any of the Seven Holy Towers fell into the hands of the Temple of Nature." Master Kona sighed softly, seeming to be lamenting the fate of the ancients, "Gregorio brought "Knowledge" Sea Shadow Volume" chose to go to the sea and go north, escaping the pursuit of the Natural Temple, and ran away from the influence of the Natural Temple. He found an island in the sea and founded the Soul Forging Tower.

Gomez chose to go south with the "True Form of the Illusion World", but he was not so lucky. In the end, he was blocked by three golden branch priests and more than a dozen silver leaf priests from the Natural Temple on the outskirts of the Elf Forest. "

"Are these Golden Bough priests also saints?"

"That's right."

"But Gomez won in the end?"

"No, they are three very powerful holy-level magicians. Gomez alone cannot defeat them, but the magicians of the Tower of Dreams always have some weird and unpredictable abilities, which makes the three of them very afraid. So in the end the two sides Choosing to compromise. Gomez handed over the "True Form of the Illusion World" and then got the opportunity to establish a sect here. "Master Kona looked at Xiao Chen with a hint of uncertainty in his eyes.

Note: The practice of distraction here has nothing to do with the state of distraction in cultivating immortality.

In addition, the meditation space is the meditation world, but the space of Xiao Chen and others is large enough to be called a world.
