Chapter 1449 Blessings City (1/2)

After the Nine Nine Blessings Tower was opened, Blackwater became the busiest place in the entire Cangxuan Heaven.

Travellers would often arrive from far away, crossing numerous continents like pilgrims on a holy pilgrimage, filled with faith, zealotry, and of course the wish to become stronger.

To deal with the enormous influx of people, Zhou Yuan personally took action, and a city quickly took shape in a few days.

He named it Blessings City.

It was a place of rest for the dao seekers who had travelled great distances to reach here, and a place to recuperate for the people who had failed the tower’s trials.

The city’s management was passed to the Great Zhou Empire and Zhou Qing swiftly sent an army to take charge. The Great Zhou Empire’s armies were of course no threat to these practitioners that had gathered from all over Cangxuan Heaven. However, their main purpose was not to subdue and deter but to maintain order in the city.

After all, as long as Zhou Yuan was the master of Cangxuan Heaven, no one would dare to cause any mischief or trouble in Blessings City.

A certain villa stood in the western district of the city. It was filled with lush greenery from which corners of a building peeked out from time to time, appearing both low-key and impressive.

At the center of the villa was an extremely tall tower. The tower was the tallest building in the city, and allowed one to overlook the entire city. In the backdrop, one would see the giant heaven-pillar-like Blessings Tower in the distance.

The top of the tower was always surrounded by mist, blocking any peeping eyes.

Amidst the mist, Zhou Yuan and Yaoyao were seated before a small tea table, while Tuntun lazily lay on its belly by the side. It would roll around from time to time, finding a better position to enjoy the warm sunlight.

A mini light tower hovered in front of Zhou Yuan, countless glowing dots visible within.

It was a real-time interior view of the Blessings Tower, and every dot represented a tower challenger.

A month had passed since the tower was opened.

Over this month, countless people had continued to flood into the Blessings Tower. Despite the mind boggling numbers, the tower easily swallowed them all like a bottomless black hole, shocking the various factions with its capacity. In a sense, the Blessings Tower was an independent domain of its own.

Such a creation was beyond the means of an ordinary Saint expert, and only a Saint expert like Zhou Yuan, who was also heaven master, was capable of such a feat.

Zhou Yuan’s hand gestured at the light tower and offhandedly said, “Seventy percent of the people who entered the Blessings Tower to train have grown stronger, while seven percent among them have successfully broken through their cultivation bottlenecks and advanced to the next cultivation stage.”

Yaoyao glanced over and said, “However, there’s still too few people who have managed to reach floor seventy and above.”

Floor seventy and above of the Blessings Tower was dubbed by Zhou Yuan as the Law Domain levels, because only a practitioner that possessed strength at the Law Domain stage could reach these floors.

For the past month, the highest tower climbers had been sect master Qing Yang, the Heaven Sword Sovereign, Venerable Lord Gu Jing and a few other veteran Law Domain experts.

There were all third stage Law Domain experts. However, even they were stuck at the eightieth floor.

Over the past month, they had challenged the eightieth floor more than ten times. Unfortunately, all their attempts had ended in defeat.

“It seems that it won’t be easy for sect master Qing Yang and the others to pass the eightieth floor.” Zhou Yuan chuckled.

“Your eightieth floor guardian is too unreasonable for them,” remarked Yaoyao as she poured herself another cup of alcohol.

An evil smile rose from the corners of Zhou Yuan’s lips. The eightieth floor guardian was the strongest opponent he had met in the Stone Dragon Secret Domain, the Sacred Race’s Tai Xuan.
