Realm-Hopping Martial Master-Chapter 765 - 424: Failure! Which Floor Did Jiang Shu Reach? (Part 2)

In this Fourth Layer, the clone's improvement is not the initial 40% battle power that geniuses have when entering the Eternal Tower but rather 30% upon stepping into the Fourth Layer!

What's more important is that the clone in the Fourth Layer, with combat instincts no weaker than theirs, is a complete and relentless crush with a 30% enhancement.

Through these repeated attempts, they finally understand the gap between the Outer and Inner Circles.

It's not only about the difference in cultivation techniques and secret techniques, but also about combat instincts and cultivation talent.

At the very least, geniuses from the Inner Circle can break through the Fourth Layer, and some even reach the Sixth Layer!

The terrifying time flow of 64 to 1!

640 years of cultivation, but only ten years have passed in the outside world!

"How can the Fourth Layer be so easy to pass? I spent five years grinding continuously in the Fourth Layer before, by chance, breaking through a bottleneck and reaching the Fifth Layer."

A cultivation genius from the Inner Circle shook his head and said, turning to sell some of his experiences from passing the Fourth Layer in the Trading Building in exchange for other useful cultivation resources.

Compared to geniuses from the Outer Circle, the geniuses of their Inner Circle forces, although finding it easier to enter the Eternal Tower, still require a large amount of cultivation resources to exchange for a spot every hundred years.

If within this century, he fails to step into the Forget Form Realm, entering the Eternal Tower is a losing proposition.

However, now it seems that everything is still worth it, even if he doesn't break through the Fifth Layer later, the time flow ratio of just the Fourth Layer should suffice for his subsequent cultivation.

"Inner Circle genius... broke through the Fourth Layer in just five years!"

On the arena, Yu Heng watched as the Inner Circle genius walked out of the Trading Building, a battle spirit filling his eyes.

In five years, he has also made extraordinary progress within the Eternal Tower!

A year ago, he even received a summons from Luo Venerable, who gave him some guidance on cultivation, furthering his understanding of the Space Origin Principle.

He has a premonition that in less than a year, he will be able to break through the Third Layer of the Eternal Tower and reach the Fourth Layer!

By then, he will be on the same level as the Supreme Geniuses within the Business Association.

After all, till now, none of the four Supreme Geniuses has formally broken through the Fourth Layer.

"Certainly can't match it, the Inner Circle geniuses broke through, the Supreme Geniuses in the Business Association should be close too. For example, Porter from the Business Association, being the number one genius this time from the Spirit Clan, is naturally strong in Soul Power and spiritual power. As long as he breaks through the Fourth Layer, cultivating in the Fourth Layer with a time flow of 16 to 1, he is very likely to rush for the Forget Realm within a hundred years."

"Among the Supreme Geniuses, only Jiang Shu is without any news, is it because he's deliberately cultivating in the Third Layer and hasn't attempted to challenge the Fourth Layer?"

In the Eternal Tower, if a cultivation genius isn't in battle, they can stay inside indefinitely.

For example, after defeating the Third Layer's clone, as long as you don't step into the Fourth Layer, you can cultivate in the Third Layer as long as you want.

Once you step into the Fourth Layer, there's no turning back, you can only fight the clone in the Fourth Layer.

The victor stays in the Fourth Layer.

The loser is expelled from the Eternal Tower, waiting to recover strength for the next entry.

Of course, upon re-entry, naturally, one starts again from the Third Layer.

Presumably, Jiang Shu is currently in the Third Layer, or else with Jiang Shu's strength, it wouldn't be possible to currently fight the Fourth Layer's clone or even to win and stay in the Fourth Layer.

That would be too absurd.

Even Inner Circle geniuses took five years to grind through the Fourth Layer.

In the process, who knows how many times they were expelled from the Eternal Tower.

Yu Heng lowered his eyes. Even now, he suspects that Jiang Shu gained immense benefits in that Void Realm encounter.

Whether inheritance or related opportunities from a Void Venerable.

Otherwise, it doesn't explain how such an unknown guy could break through to the Eighth Floor of the Genius Trial Tower in one go.

However, in front of the Eternal Tower, which values talent, all good luck will be useless.

Without sufficient talent, Jiang Shu can't break through the Fourth Layer and can only remain in the Third Layer!

Perhaps he himself might even progress further than Jiang Shu!

On the path of cultivation, reaching the end is victory! His understanding of the Space Origin Principle, already profound, deepened further with Luo Venerable's guidance. He completely has the opportunity to advance to the Forget Form Realm within the Inner Ring of Star Ruins.

Rushing for the Forget Realm in the Eternal Tower!

Yu Heng watched Jiang Shu's movements, while the other three Supreme Geniuses were also paying attention. However, they were more concerned with their own progress. After coming out of the Eternal Tower, they immediately entered seclusion to recover and then rushed back into the Eternal Tower to battle the clone, aiming to break through the Fourth Layer faster.

Each of them thought to break through the Fourth Layer sooner than the Inner Circle geniuses, to prove the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance.

However, still fighting in the Fourth Layer of the Eternal Tower, they are unaware that an Inner Circle genius has already passed the Fourth Layer. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

More so, they don't know that like them, Jiang Shu, ranked among the Supreme Geniuses of Jiuyu Commerce Alliance, had been able to cultivate freely in the Fourth Layer of the Eternal Tower three years ago.

...

"Fifth Floor... truly difficult... then give myself another five years, after five years, I should leave the Ancient Demon Sect Relics. By then, if I still can't pass the Fifth Layer of the Eternal Tower, I'll focus entirely on cultivating in the Fourth Layer. After reaching the Vientiane Realm, we'll see."

Jiang Shu didn't find it surprising that he couldn't pass the Fifth Layer, the pressure of the Fifth Layer is much greater than the Fourth.

To pass, he needs a new enhancement in his battle understanding of the Power Dao Primordial Form and Space Dao Embryo.

At his current realm, such an enhancement is akin to directly entering the Vientiane Realm.

The time for enlightenment is calculated in decades, making it hard to break through in battle!

The only possibility is to ensure stable improvement during combat, prolong the battle time, and continuously comprehend during battle.

"I wonder how things are at the base now?"

Jiang Shu's figure appeared at the entrance of the Eternal Tower, both his arms were wasted, shattered completely by the clone, and his internal organs were upside down and destroyed, with his entire blood essence almost dried up.

In this state, even the geniuses back at the base,

not to mention some Ninth Rank Cultivators from the Inner Circle, might gang up and completely kill Jiang Shu.

This is also why every force's genius entering the base must have a Venerable in charge.

Before entering the Eternal Tower, geniuses are powerful, leading by far over cultivators of the same realm.

But once they fail in the Eternal Tower, the injuries to geniuses are extremely severe, and in this base filled with Ninth Rank geniuses, there isn't a shred of a sense of safety.

Without a Venerable overseeing, without certainty of passing, a genius would choose to retreat, conserving strength and leaving the Eternal Tower.

Under these circumstances, how could they possibly defeat a clone whose battle power is several levels above theirs?

"Is this the supreme genius of the Eternal Tower, Jiang Shu?"

"Seems like it! He's finally out, I wonder which layer he reached. The previous Supreme Geniuses of Jiuyu Commerce Alliance only reached the Third Layer. I reckon he must also be in the Third Layer. It's quite interesting; although Supreme Geniuses can't quickly break through the Fourth Layer, they shouldn't be injured this severely. It seems his talent ranks among the lowest of these Supreme Geniuses."

"I thought the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance could enter the Inner Circle with this opportunity, but judging by these geniuses, only that number one Spirit Clan Porter can be expected to potentially rush for the Forget Realm in a hundred years. The rest of the geniuses are mediocre. This Jiang Shu, even as a Supreme Genius, is merely on par with the Super Geniuses of Jiuyu Commerce Alliance. Since he's just a Human Clan member, there's no need to go out of the way to associate with him."

As Jiang Shu stepped out, some Inner Circle geniuses quickly swept their gazes over him, exchanging looks, and conveying their thoughts telepathically.
