Xu Ning stepped on the muddy ground, surrounded by dense branches and trees that were about a hundred meters tall.
The sky was basically covered, with only the gaps between the branches and leaves present, allowing some sunlight to seep in, preventing this place from turning pitch black.
āLetās go up and take a lookā¦ā
Xu Ning began to climb.
Cha cha chaā¦
Xu Ning moved upwards using the branches and leaves and soon arrived at the top of a giant tree.
He looked into the distance and all he saw was a sea of trees.
āIs this the environment of this independent spaceā¦ā
Xu Ning had a rough idea.
Xu Ning learned from his experience over the past half month.
The environment in every independent space was basically uniform throughout.
It was either a continuous volcanic area, a never-ending grassland, or a lone island on a lakeā¦
The scenes didnāt have many elements.
āThere are no signs of life in this sea of treesā¦ā
Xu Ning looked up at the sky. There were no birds in the sky, only a glowing sphere that emitted light like a sun.
āLetās go down and take a lookā¦ā
Xu Ning went down from the top of the giant tree and landed on the ground again.
Just like before, he began to explore the giant forest.
While searching for resources and hidden fragments, he also found the teleportation portal here.
Xu Ning walked in the dense forest.

Whoosh!
Suddenly, Xu Ning heard a strange sound, and a sense of danger rose in his heart.
Xu Ning turned around subconsciously and saw more than a dozen tentacles sticking out from a short tree, whipping at Xu Ning.
The dozens of tentacles were covered in spikes, and the surface of the spikes was glowing with green light.
āArcane domain!ā
Xu Ning immediately activated his arcane domain and covered his body with a light membrane.
Pata! Pata! Pata!
The tentacles hit the arcane domain light membrane.
āA plant with its own consciousnessā¦ā
This was the first time Xu Ning had encountered such a creature after coming to the tower.
However, although this plant with tentacles was strange, it did not cause any substantial damage to Xu Ning.
After all, its tentacles were unable to break Xu Ningās arcane domain light membrane.
Whoosh!
Xu Ning counterattacked.
More than a dozen wind blades slashed across, cutting off the tentacles.
Afterwards, Xu Ning stepped towards the short tree and pierced the tree trunk with a spiral wind spike. The wind attribute power destroyed most of the short treeās vitality.
āThere seems to be something in this treeā¦ā
Xu Ning used his perception to cut open the short tree and took out a transparent solid object.
āWhat is thisā¦ Could this be the essence of this tree?ā
Xu Ning sensed that the vitality of the tree was waning.
After his palm touched the transparent solid object, a notification came from the Martial Arts Panel.
ā¦
Discovered 2 million units of energy, absorb?
Yes / No
ā¦
ā2 million unitsā¦ā
Xu Ning smiled. āWhat a coincidence. After gathering 2 million units of energy, I can advance to rank eightā¦ā
Without hesitation, Xu Ning absorbed the 2 million units of energy.
Whoosh!
After Xu Ning absorbed the energy, the transparent solid substance in his hand instantly turned into a viscous liquid and fell onto the ground.
Xu Ning activated his arcane power and a water ball condensed in his palm.
The ball of water dispersed and washed away the viscous liquid in Xu Ningās hand.
The current Xu Ning had learned many arcane techniques of various attributes and integrated them into his arcane domain.
The greater the number and the stronger the arcane techniques were, the more powerful his arcane domain would be.
āItās time to advance to a rank eight arcanistā¦ā
Xu Ning clicked ā+ā beside the realm.
ā¦
Consume 25 million units of energy to advance to a rank eight arcanist?
Yes / No
ā¦
After Xu Ning confirmed the advancement, he felt the pleasure of advancing his realm.
āIām rank eightā¦ā
Xu Ning expanded the range of his arcane domain to more than a hundred meters.
āThe limit of my arcane domain should be five hundred meters nowā¦ā
Just like the void realm true domain in the Martial Arts World, arcane domains were used to cover the enemy in oneās arcane domain and then attack and kill them.
āIām only one realm away from breaking through to rank nine and understanding the world origin of the Arcanist Worldā¦ā
Xu Ning was a little excited.
However, Xu Ning knew very well that it was definitely not easy to advance to rank nine.
Because the energy required to advance from rank eight to rank nine was 120 million units!
This was a terrifying amount of resources.
āIām just one step away. I have to do my best to gather the resources, but I also have to proceed steadilyā¦ā
The more he traveled, the more Xu Ning felt that he couldnāt be complacent. He had to stay alert at all times.
But after advancing to rank eight, Xu Ning was more confident.
āStop, hand over all the hidden fragments and I will spare your life!ā
After advancing, Xu Ning was about to explore again, when he heard a shout from a distance.
āIs there a conflict between the arcanists of the different factionsā¦ā
Xu Ning thought about it and decided to take a look.
In the dense forest.
A bald young man fled frantically, occasionally throwing out a few arcane techniques to obstruct the pursuers behind him.
The three pursuers behind him looked fierce. They looked as though they would not stop until they caught up with him.
āWhere is the teleportation gate? Why havenāt I found it yet?ā
The bald youth looked at the approaching enemies behind him and was very anxious.
This bald young man was one of Xu Ningās companions, Gao Qixuan.
āYou guys are breaking the rules!ā
As Gao Qixuan fled, he roared, āBefore entering the tower, all parties have agreed that no one is allowed to attack each other, but you still attacked me!ā
āWhat a joke!ā
A brown-clothed pursuer sneered. āA superficial promise can be taken seriously? Over the years, the Arcanist Tower has opened countless times, and every time there is such a promise, but no one abides by it. You are using this to restrict us, what a joke!ā
The three pursuers were unmoved, instead they gradually accelerated.
āItās over, Iām going to die here!ā
Gao Qixuan felt helpless.
He was only in his thirties, but he was already a rank seven arcanist.
With his aptitude, he could definitely fight for the position of the Gao family head in the future.
It would be a shame to die here.
āIām warning you one last time, hand over the hidden fragments and I will spare your life!ā
The pursuers shouted again.
āNo!ā
Gao Qixuan roared.
He knew that the pursuers behind him were not trustworthy.
āSince I canāt escape, Iāll go all out!ā
Soon, Gao Qixuan realized that he couldnāt escape and steeled his resolve. āIāll take them down with me!ā
Gao Qixuan suddenly turned around and was about to fight to the death.
The three pursuers saw this and also pounced towards Gao Qixuan.
