When Lu Yuan walked into the nine-story pagoda, many surrounding cultivators immediately looked at him.
However, for Lu Yuan to be there, he could not be a nobody.
Therefore, although they were curious about Lu Yuan, they did not ask.
Cultivators considered it very impolite to directly ask another cultivator about their cultivation.
Such behavior was comparable to directly asking others private questions upon the first meeting.
Hence, it was almost the consensus of cultivators to hide their strength.
Even if one asked, others might not necessarily answer.
After realizing that Lu Yuan did not attract the attention of the people around him, he no longer paid attention to those people.
After all, he was different from them.
Their core goal was to attempt to enter the Upper Realm rather than get cultivation techniques and divine abilities of the Upper Realm.
After all, they likely thought that upon entering the Upper Realm, they would have as many cultivation techniques and divine abilities as they wanted.
At least, that was what many heavenly prides thought.
Relying on their talent, they should be able to become superior when they enter the Upper Realm and be valued by the various sects.
Within the nine-story pagoda, Lu Yuan quickly figured out the distribution of the pagoda.
Firstly, the entire pagoda was divided into two parts, the cultivation technique area and the divine ability area.
Every level had cultivation techniques and divine abilities stored.
On the first three floors of the pagoda, there were some Qi Cultivation Stage cultivation techniques and divine abilities.
For things like cultivation techniques and divine abilities, the higher the level, the better.
Some Qi Cultivation Stage cultivation techniques could help one condense a new spiritual root or cause a special effect.
Some Qi Cultivation Stage divine abilities were also the prerequisites for other special divine abilities.
Without cultivating the pre-requisite divine ability first, there was no way to cultivate some of the more powerful divine abilities that followed.
The middle three levels of the pagoda contained some Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation techniques and divine abilities.
The last three levels were the cultivation techniques and divine abilities of the Core Formation Stage.
The reason why there were so many people wandering around the first three levels was that many of these people had just participated in the third test of the Immortal Ascension Assembly.
They only returned to the first three levels of the pagoda for a short rest to prepare for their next attempt.
After all, the entire pagoda was basically in the shape of a pyramid. The higher one went, the smaller the space.
Only the first three floors had a place for cultivators to rest.
Not only were there no resting places on the last six floors, but one couldn’t even stay there for a long time.
The reason was very simple. Naturally, the Upper Realm did not want their cultivation techniques to be exposed too much.
Perhaps some people would be able to break through the restrictions placed on their cultivation techniques and divine abillities and learn the contents.
After Lu Yuan briefly glanced at the contents of the first three floors, he decisively walked toward the next three floors.
There, Lu Yuan saw many familiar cultivation techniques.
For example, the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique that he was currently cultivating and the special divine ability he had previously cultivated, the Green Flame Technique.
Lu Yuan speculated that the reason why the Qingyun Sect had those two cultivation techniques was probably that a senior of the Qingyun Sect had brought them out from the pagoda to present to the sect.
Thinking of that, Lu Yuan became even more expectant of the last three levels.
Currently, his strength had reached a bottleneck.
Although Lu Yuan had Core Formation Stage cultivation and was a terrifying nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core cultivator, without a suitable cultivation technique, he could not advance his cultivation well.
The reason why Lu Yuan was able to reach the Core Formation Stage Second Level was that he completely relied on the help of Divine Soul Pills and Blood Qi Pills. It was a forced upgrade. However, if Lu Yuan could not continue to find a suitable cultivation technique, it would be very difficult for him to advance in the future.
That was why Lu Yuan was still willing to participate in the Immortal Ascension Assembly even though he suspected that there was an Apotheosis Stage powerhouse present.
It couldn’t be helped. That was how the cultivators of the Lower Realm were.
In the absence of sufficient cultivation techniques and divine abilities, the cultivators of the Lower Realm appeared to be blocked from advancing.
Unless one’s talent was really terrifying to a certain extent, without a suitable cultivation technique, one would need to put in many times more effort to reach the same level as the cultivators of the Upper Realm.
When he arrived at the last three levels of the nine-story pagoda, Lu Yuan encountered an unexpected situation.
The layout of the sixth to ninth levels was completely different from the previous three levels.
They were not separate floors, but a whole space.
Layers of bookshelves were stacked on the surrounding walls.
The only thing that could distinguish the location of cultivation techniques and divine abilities was the number under each bookcase tier.
Lu Yuan looked at the bookcase on the wall that was clearly divided into three tiers.
Lu Yuan was somewhat stunned for a moment.
He did not expect that the layout after the sixth level would actually be like this.
Such a setup made it impossible for outsiders to see the contents of the cultivation techniques and divine abilities, let alone pick out a specific cultivation technique.
Lu Yuan was shocked by the layout there.
A voice came from beside him, “Fellow Daoist, this should be your first time seeing this area, right?”
Lu Yuan turned his head and realized that the person he was talking to was Zhuang Yangbing in disguise.
Lu Yuan looked at the other party. He actually didn’t know what to say.
One had to know that when they first met, they were both in disguise as well.
Such coincidences were part of life..
