Fan Xuexuan explained the general rules and various aspects of Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower to Yi Tianyun along with the gist of the situation on Ancient Netherworld Divine Nation. Yi Tianyun didn't push for any specific matter regarding the Ancient Netherworld Divine Nation as he knew that it was up to Fan Xuexuan whether or not she'd trust Yi Tianyun later.
"This Flame Imprint turns out to be so useful later!" Yi Tianyun said as he looked at the Flame Imprint on his hand. He got it when he entered the 1st Layer City, and it would be used to challenge the platform later to get access to 2nd Layer City! Yi Tianyun learned that the Ancient Netherworld Divine Nation had this system from the beginning to filter out the 'geniuses' among cultivators.
To reach the 9th Layer City, where the Tower Lord resided, he had to clear the Challenge of the 8th Layer City, where the Elder resided, the 7th Layer City, where the Master resided, and the 6th city, where the Deacon resided. Each city was huge, demonstrating that Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower was really massive in size! It was no laughing matter as Yi Tianyun realised how powerful Ancient Netherworld Divine Nation really was in the past, but he was still not sure how could the Ancient Netherworld Divine Nation have fallen.
Yi Tianyun also learned that the Tower Lord had the power to kill anyone inside the Tower, but he couldn't use it anytime he wanted. Unfortunately, there was no Tower Lord at the moment, so this power was unusable. The strongest cultivator right now inside the Tower would be among the Elders. The election of Tower Lord wasn't so simple as it required layers of assessment before one could be considered a candidate to become a Tower Lord. The key that became the basis of all criteria would be the Pure Bloodline. This key was a major factor that would cause the Evil Spirit Race unable to elect themselves to become the Tower lord as the Evil Spirit Race would never have a pure bloodline.
The highest position that Evil Spirit Race could attain inside the Tower was only Elder Rank, but it was still good enough as they had a lot of power to create various rules inside the Tower. This was where the Flame Imprint came in handy as it was used as a sort of currency inside the Tower. Any cultivator could use their flame imprint to enjoy a lot of resources and even could use it to gain access to Cultivation Room according to the level of their Flame Imprint.
The most noticeable use of this Flame Imprint would be the ability to control the Netherworld's Fire, which couldn't be controlled with any normal means otherwise. The only downside from entering the Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower was the obligation to pay at least 5 Flame Imprints for those who wished to leave.
"Five Flame Imprints? The Evil Spirit Race won't let these people leave if that's the case. The Evil Spirit Race would rather absorb their blood essence for themselves before letting such a good cultivator go!" Yi Tianyun said to himself. This made sense as those who possessed 5 Flame Imprints would already be in 5th Layer City, meaning they were at least a genius cultivator with a good innate ability!
When Yi Tianyun was inside the city, he didn't see anything special as he saw many residents were selling things on the side of the road, like Treasures and Spirit Medicine. The 1st Layer City was a huge place where people grew various Spirit Herbs, and even Demon Beast appeared once in a while. Moreover, the Spiritual Energy inside the Tower was far better than the outside, making it a suitable place to grind cultivation! Even so, there were still quite a number of people at the Spirit Refinement Stage as they couldn't find suitable cultivation that could push their cultivation ahead.
Yi Tianyun also learned that there was barely any cultivator coming in nowadays. The Tower population has been thriving since the Ancient Netherworld Divine King's time, so there was no problem there. Moreover, the cultivator with good evaluation had a chance to obtain a good Heaven Level Martial Arts. As a result, the cultivators inside the Tower were even more hesitant to leave the Tower anyway!
"That propaganda is the reason why these people are reluctant to leave this place. Little did they know that they were just cattle waiting to be butchered once they are mature enough!" Yi Tianyun said as he sighed. He knew that Evil Spirit Race must've been already inside the Tower, and they would be at the Elder Rank right now.
"Now, we have to climb up one layer at a time. Even if there are Elders up there, they shouldn't have absolute control over the Tower. We have to rush up and kill the Elder to become a Tower Lord! Once we do, the Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower should return to what it was supposed to be!" Fan Xuexuan said determinedly.
"Are you already aware that your elder is an Evil Spirit Race?" Yi Tianyun wondered.
"I had my suspicion in the past, but there is no way to really prove it, especially with their cultivation being so high. I can hide my own Bloodline, but it was still tough to do so." Fan Xuexuan explained.
"I understand. Now we must make haste! I don't have much time here!" Yi Tianyun said, and Fan Xuexuan nodded before walking towards the centre of the city. A huge platform was in the centre of the city, and many people were already fighting there. Killing the opponent or throwing them off of the platform would earn you a Flame Imprint. If you were out of Flame Imprint, you no longer had the right to challenge others and had to wait until you got another Flame Imprint.
It wasn't that long after Yi Tianyun walked towards the centre of the city, but the Iron Necklace on his chest began to glow red, meaning that an Evil Spirit Race cultivator was nearby! He looked around and noticed a dozen of cultivators that might be Evil Spirit Race Cultivators on the side. They were just silently watching the participant on the platform instead of joining the fight.
Yi Tianyun immediately jumped onto the platform and challenged one of the Evil Spirit Race to be his opponent. "You, come here and duel me!" Yi Tianyun said confidently. Obviously, Fan Xuexuan was startled by what Yi Tianyun did as she didn't understand why Yi Tianyun decided to make a move right away instead of assessing the situation at hand first!

Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower had a wide range of cultivators, many cultivators that still couldn't move out to the city, and some people that were just hanging around. Most of the cultivators there were at the Spirit Core stage, while some of them were at Core Transformation Stage or higher. But mostly, it was just the Spirit Core Stage cultivator as it seemed they were born in this city.
The Evil Spirit Race that Yi Tianyun saw was at the 5th Layer Core Transformation Stage, and he was the most powerful cultivator in their group. "Wow, this brat is certainly new around here. He just challenged a Patrol Envoy without any hesitation." One of the Evil Spirit Race said mockingly while the other snickered mockingly.
Other cultivators were surprised by Yi Tianyun's sudden challenge and shook their heads as they thought Yi Tianyun must be crazy.
"Did you seriously just challenge me, kid?" Inspector Zhao, the Evil Spirit Race Cultivator that Yi Tianyun challenged, said with a mocking expression on his face. He stroked the two flame imprint on his arms to show that he was different from an average cultivator in the 1st Layer City. This platform was the only place where killing people wasn't considered breaking the law of Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower, so a brutal battle among the cultivators was the common way to solve their differences.
That ws one of the rules that Ancient Netherworld Divine King enforced to the tower as it was part of his own belief! Murder was such a cowardly move that he condemned it throughout his territory!
"I am sure, but are you brave enough to step up to the challenge?" Yi Tianyun said indifferently.
"Why would I? You didn't have the qualification to challenge me!" Inspector Zhao said mockingly. He rejected Yi Tianyun's challenge without any hesitation even though everyone encouraged him to accept it. Some people understood that someone with a high status like Inspector Zhao wouldn't accept a challenge for a duel from some random guy as he didn't gain anything from it.
"Wow, I don't know that inspectors are such a coward. How can a coward like you be chosen to be a patrol? It just doesn't make any sense, right?" Yi Tianyun said sarcastically. It was only a provocation, but Yi Tianyun knew that Inspector Zhao would take the bait as there was no way the Evil Spirit Race would just sit idly after being humiliated like that!
"Careful now boy, are you really sure you want to do this?" Inspector Zhao said coldly. He, at first, didn't want to accept the challenge as he wanted to preserve the cultivator as much as he could until they reached the peak of their power. That way, they would be able to reap the cultivator at their best, harvesting the best quality Blood Essence from them for Evil Spirit Race to consume.
"Of course, I am sure, so what are you waiting for? I am waiting up here!" Yi Tianyun said tauntingly. Everyone shook their head as they thought that the young man was done for now. The inspector would surely kill him after taunting him impertinently like that!
Yi Tianyun knew what these cultivators were thinking, but he didn't care! He just wanted to kill the Evil Spirit Race as soon as he could! In actuality, Yi Tianyun didn't even care if the inspector refused his challenge as he would kill him in the end nonetheless!
Inspector Zhao looked at Yi Tianyun coldly and jumped over to the platform. The field instantly lighted up and created a dim barrier, meaning that no one could escape the battle, and the only way to get out was to kill the opponent or force them to surrender!
"Congratulations, you have successfully made me mad!" Zhao coldly said as he walked slowly toward the platform. Two flames appeared in his hands, and as the flame's intensity increased, it turned into Netherworld's Fire!
The cultivators knew that the power that Inspector Zhao was using was the privilege of the patrol, and it had the absolute power to suppress people! This ability was the reason why people in the layered city hesitated to challenge any of them!
Unless the young man in front of the inspector right now was some kind of genius, he wouldn't be able to win against the inspector!
The inspector looked at Yi Tianyun with the intention to attack, but he was suddenly gone! He tried to find Yi Tianyun, but he couldn't find him on the platform! Suddenly, he felt something hit him, and he lost his consciousness. He didn't feel any pain at all, but it was clear that he wouldn't be waking up again in this world!
People were startled by what happened as Inspector Zhao's head was cut off from his body with one attack. It was an insane scene as no one ever expected an inspector to be killed so easily! The inspector's powerful fire didn't even play any part as Inspector Zhao couldn't even react to the young man's attack!
Yi Tianyun sighed as he felt a little bit cruel challenging a Core Transformation cultivator while he himself was already Saint King Stage expert! But to be fair, Yi Tianyun did hold back considerably,, but clearly, it didn't change anything!
After killing Inspector Zhao, his flame imprint flew towards Yi Tianyun, and thus added another Flame Imprint on Yi Tianyun's arm.
Yi Tianyun was actually satisfied with the Flame Imprint System as it was so easy to follow. He just have to defeat 5 more cultivators to upgrade his Flame Imprint to earn the qualification to enter 3rd Layer City! And of course, this was the standard procedure way, not an alternative that might immediately take him to the top!
Yi Tianyun's provocation to challenge the Evil Spirit Race to take their Flame Imprint was his own way to reach the top quickly. It was like killing two birds with one stone! This way, he could also cull out the Evil Spirit Race inside the Tower ahead of time!
