　　At these words, pairs of eyes around fixed on Ye Wushuang, waiting for him to continue.
　　Without further ado, Ye Wushuang clenched his palm, and suddenly, glowing patterns emerged and swirled around the walls of the first floor of the tower.
　　Then, amidst the dazzling radiance of the patterns, they transformed into swimming fish figures, shimmering with various colors, darting around inside the tower.
　　Subsequently, tiny dots of starlight flickered across the first floor’s space.
　　It was as if the first floor had become an ocean—a sparkling sea filled with lively, swimming fish.
　　At the same time, the mural on the ceiling of the first floor descended like a mirror, shedding specks of radiant light.
　　Simultaneously, the ancient tower’s doors sealed shut, and from the first to the ninth floor, the entire tower erupted with a soaring light.
　　Even from dozens of miles away, one could look up and see the shimmering glow of this ancient tower.
　　Not far off, a group of people halted their steps.
　　The middle-aged man at the lead gazed at the flickering light of the ancient tower and couldn’t help but say, ‘That place…’
　　’Sect Leader, it’s the place we visited, but we didn’t notice anything unusual,’ a middle-aged man spoke up. ‘However… just now, it seemed like the Lin family from the Sheng Tian Sect headed that way！’
　　Hearing this, the leader’s eyebrows raised slightly.
　　This man was none other than Wu Shanze, the Great Cauldron Master of the Nine Cauldrons Sect, a renowned Star-Plucking Realm figure in the Tianyuan Continent.
　　’With that Ye Wushuang in the Sheng Tian Sect, they”ve really transformed beyond recognition,’ Wu Shanze remarked coolly.
　　A tall man beside him chuckled, ‘We also have Ye Feifei. Given time, her strength and cultivation will surely surpass Ye Wushuang”s！’
　　Mentioning Ye Feifei, Wu Shanze sighed, ‘Zixiu, you must understand—the more outstanding Ye Feifei becomes, the more worried I feel.’
　　’Worried？’
　　The tall man immediately grasped his meaning. As the Second Cauldron Master of the Nine Cauldrons Sect, Zhuo Zixiu was not only gifted in cultivation but also a force to be reckoned with.
　　Zhuo Zixiu smiled and said, “The Great Cauldron Master’s meaning is, if the Sacred Heaven Sect and the Spirit Sword Pavilion really come to blows, our Nine Cauldrons Heavenly Sect…”
　　”Of course, we’ll stay out of it.”
　　Wu Shanze said indifferently, “I admire Ye Wushuang, but I can’t help the Sacred Heaven Sect at all costs just because I admire him or because his sister is training within our Nine Cauldrons Heavenly Sect！”
　　”As the Great Cauldron Master, it’s impossible for me to do so.”
　　Zhuo　Zixiu　nodded.
　　”However… I doubt we can stop that child, Ye Feifei. If we really try to restrain her, she won’t feel any gratitude toward our Nine Cauldrons Heavenly Sect when she grows stronger in the future.”
　　The others nodded one after another.
　　Zhuo Zixiu couldn’t help but say, “Then this is quite a dilemma…”
　　”Indeed！”
　　Wu Shanze sighed, then turned to look at another woman beside him.
　　”Qinghe！”
　　”Hmm？”
　　The Ninth Cauldron Master, Luo Qinghe, looked at Wu Shanze.
　　Wu Shanze then said, “We may not be able to stop Feifei, but we can protect her. If it really comes to that, you understand, right？”
　　Luo Qinghe nodded in response.
　　Ye Feifei was brought into the Nine Cauldrons Heavenly Sect by her when she passed through the Qingyun Empire.
　　Now that Ye Feifei’s strength has grown, but after all, she is still young and hasn’t reached the moment of full eruption. If the Sacred Heaven Sect and the Spirit Sword Pavilion really start fighting, and Ye Feifei wants to help her brother, that’s only natural.
　　But Ye Feifei can’t really make much of a difference, and Luo Qinghe only needs to use protecting Ye Feifei as an excuse to get involved, which won’t provoke the Spirit Sword Pavilion’s anger either！
　　This balance is easy to control.
　　The group glanced at the light from the tall tower, then dispersed one by one.
　　At the same time, over at the Spirit Sword Pavilion, Xu Mingxiu also received the news.
　　”We’ve been to that tower before！” Yun Changzhong exclaimed in surprise： “But there wasn’t anything special about it.”
　　”Now　there　is.”
　　Xu Mingxiu frowned and said： “This Ye Wushuang, we really underestimated him.”
　　”Keep investigating, see what kind of opportunity they’ve actually encountered.”
　　”Yes！”
　　Yun Changzhong was also feeling furious at this moment.
　　Damn it, why does this Ye Wushuang keep going to places he’s been to？
　　If they didn’t find anything, that would be one thing, but if they really stumbled upon some heaven-defying opportunity, then… trouble would be huge！
　　Inside the ancient tower.
　　The shimmering light of stars surrounded them, and fish of all shapes and colors swam about, leaving everyone stunned by the sight before them.
　　”What exactly is this？”
　　”It’s a cultivation ground！”
　　Ye Wushuang spoke up： “The Thousand Fish Mysterious Mechanism Diagram！ This scroll records a formation, condensed into a wondrous place for cultivation. Such cultivation offers different enhancement benefits for martial artists of various realm levels.”
　　”For those in the Deluded Self Realm, entering this diagram will multiply the speed of their spiritual energy condensation severalfold.”
　　”For those in the Star-Plucking Transformation Realm, the rate of their spiritual energy intensity enhancement will accelerate.”
　　”For those in the Sage-Entering Heaven Realm, the growth of their soul power will also speed up！”
　　In short, this is a formation that can accelerate the enhancement speed of whatever power one lacks.
　　Ye Wushuang continued： “The first to the ninth layers represent different enhancement speeds.”
　　”Based on a martial artist’s innate talent, comprehension, foundational solidity at each realm level, and the depth of their personal insights into each realm, it can determine which layer they enter！”
　　Hearing this, Huang Yu excitedly asked： “How much of a boost can the first layer provide？”
　　”At　least　double！”
　　The crowd was overjoyed upon hearing this.
　　Ye Wushuang added： “Moreover, reaching higher layers may bring unexpected changes. The mysteries of the Thousand Fish Mysterious Mechanism Diagram are only superficially understood by me. What other transformations may occur depends entirely on everyone’s individual opportunities.”
　　”Then how can one tell which layer suits them best？” someone else asked.
　　Ye Wushuang said with a smile, “See these wandering fish？ On this first level, empty your mind, and these fish will automatically gather around you. Then, whichever cultivation condition you meet, a fish will merge with you. If enough fish merge, you’ll automatically advance to the second level.”
　　”If the number of merged fish isn’t sufficient, moving to the second level on your own won’t bring any benefits.”
　　”To enter the second level, you must merge at least nine fish.”
　　”To enter the third level, it’s eighteen fish or more！”
　　Huang Yu, hearing this, exclaimed in surprise, “So doesn’t that mean this so-called Thousand Fish Mystic Diagram tests nine aspects on the first level and eighteen on the second？”
　　That’s way too exaggerated！
　　Ye Wushuang chuckled and said, “Not quite. It only tests nine aspects. Meeting the first stage of these nine aspects allows entry to the second level, and meeting the second stage allows entry to the third, and so on！”
　　Ah,　I　see！
　　Seeing everyone’s eagerness, Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “No need to worry. This is the Thousand Fish Mystic Diagram’s test of your own self. You don’t need to do anything.”
　　”After the test, following the guidance the diagram provides will greatly benefit the stabilization and advancement of your cultivation realm, including your willpower and mental fortitude！”
　　”In fact, realm advancement isn’t even the main focus—the improvement in willpower and mental fortitude is far more significant.”
　　Hearing this, everyone nodded one by one.
