Mortals cultivate immortality, I have a Chaos Tower

Lin Fan followed her gaze and saw a familiar scene vaguely visible in the distance outside the cave entrance - the outline of Xueting Village. The once peaceful and ordinary town now appeared in their sight, as if it was particularly abrupt in this silent world.

"Xueting Village?" Jiang Shuiling was also stunned, then looked into the distance, with a hint of disbelief in her eyes.

"How is it possible? Aren't we in the Holy Ruins? Why are we back to Xueting Village again?" Jin Buke's face was also full of confusion. They thought they had long been away from the mortal world and entered the mysterious world of the Holy Ruins, but now they are back to the mortal world again?

"There must be some truth hidden in all this." Lin Fan's eyes were firm. He could feel that things were far from as simple as they seemed.

The emergence of Xueting Village, the abandonment of the teleportation array, the dead silence in the cave...all of this seemed to indicate some kind of change, and behind this change, perhaps, was the core secret of the Holy Ruins. He had a vague premonition in his heart that everything he was experiencing was just part of a bigger game.

Just as Lin Fan was thinking, the Chaos Tower in his body suddenly vibrated slightly. Lin Fan's expression changed, and his mind immediately sank into the sea of ​​consciousness, and he found that the third floor of the Chaos Tower had quietly opened.

Just as the four of them stood in the desolate cave, lost in deep thought about the strange situation before them, Lin Fan suddenly felt a strange vibration coming from the Chaos Tower in his body. This vibration came from the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness, as if awakening some long-dormant power.

Lin Fan's expression changed slightly, and he immediately became alert. His gaze instantly became deep, as if he had penetrated the reality in front of him and reached the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness. Then, his consciousness sank into the sea of ​​consciousness to explore the source of this sudden movement.

Deep in the sea of ​​consciousness, the magnificent and ancient figure of the Chaos Tower stood quietly, emitting a deep and mysterious aura. Lin Fan had felt the protection and strength brought by the Chaos Tower countless times in critical moments. It was his most powerful magic weapon and the sustenance of his soul. Every time the tower moved, it often meant that he would gain stronger power.

But this time, things are a little different.

Lin Fan stared at the Chaos Tower intently, and suddenly found that the originally tightly closed third-floor door had quietly opened a gap. The gap was extremely small, but the breath emanating from it made Lin Fan feel a strong vitality rushing towards him.

"The third floor of the Chaos Tower... is actually opened!" A hint of shock and joy flashed in Lin Fan's eyes.

The Chaos Tower's seals gradually unlocked as Lin Fan's cultivation level improved. The tower contained countless unknown powers and secrets. Lin Fan had long felt that there was some mysterious connection between the Chaos Tower and the Holy Ruins. And now, after experiencing the thunder tribulation and the abnormal changes in the jade pendant, the third floor of the Chaos Tower was finally opened, which seemed to indicate that a bigger secret was about to be revealed.

Lin Fan controlled his consciousness and carefully sent his consciousness deep into the third floor of the Chaos Tower. As his consciousness entered the tower, the scene in front of him slowly emerged.

The space inside the third floor of the tower was not large, but it was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. The surrounding stone walls were engraved with mysterious runes, which seemed to contain the laws of the universe and emitted a faint light. Lin Fan's eyes swept through the tower and noticed that in a corner of the central area, there was a slender seedling growing quietly.

Although this seedling looks weak, there is a faint spiritual energy around it, as if it is protecting this fragile life. The leaves of the seedling are slightly green, and the veins are flowing with a crystal luster, as if they are born with extremely powerful spiritual power.

"Spiritual herbs?" Lin Fan was shocked.

He took a few steps closer and used his spiritual sense to carefully examine the seedling. Although this spiritual herb was only a seedling, it exuded a pure and ancient aura, as if it had grown in this Chaos Tower for countless years. This aura made Lin Fan feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if it had some kind of destined connection with him.

This spiritual herb is definitely not an ordinary herb. The spiritual power it exudes far exceeds any natural treasure that Lin Fan has ever seen. Even a fairy-level spiritual herb cannot show such a magnificent vitality in such an initial state. Lin Fan realized that the existence of this spiritual herb may mean that the third floor of the Chaos Tower hides a more important secret, and this spiritual herb may be the key to unlocking this secret.

Lin Fan stood in the tower, looking at the spiritual herb, his heart was filled with ripples. He knew that everything in the Chaos Tower was closely related to his cultivation realm. Each floor of the tower contained a power beyond his current cognition, and the appearance of the spiritual herb on the third floor might be a sign that he would embark on a new stage of cultivation.

**"Could this spiritual herb be related to the Holy Ruins?"** Lin Fan pondered in his heart. Since they entered the Holy Ruins, it has been full of weirdness and unknowns, and every clue seems to be constantly guiding him towards a deeper secret.

Why is the third floor of the Chaos Tower open now? What does this spiritual herb represent? Lin Fan felt that the answers to these questions might be right in front of him. However, to solve these mysteries, he needed not only to improve his cultivation, but also to have a deep understanding of the great way of heaven and earth.

Lin Fan's consciousness returned to reality, and the Chaos Tower in his body still exuded that warm breath, as if it was resonating with him. The power in the tower made him feel at ease, but it also brought him more doubts and challenges.

"Lin Fan, what's wrong?" Jiang Shuiling's voice brought Lin Fan back to reality.

He looked up and found that Jin Buke, Jiang Shuiling and Zhong Ling'er were all looking at him with confusion and concern on their faces. Obviously, they had noticed that Lin Fan's aura had changed.

Lin Fan took a deep breath and a faint smile appeared on his face: "Nothing, it's just that the third floor of the Chaos Tower suddenly opened."

"The third floor of the Chaos Tower?" Jin Buke raised his eyebrows, obviously curious about this mysterious magic weapon. "What does this mean?"

Lin Fan shook his head slightly, his eyes deep: "I don't know either, but this is obviously related to our experience in the Holy Ruins. A spiritual herb in the tower seems to be the key. I have a hunch that the real secret of the Holy Ruins may be closely related to this spiritual herb."

Zhong Ling'er's eyes flashed with surprise, and she whispered, "You mean, there are spiritual herbs growing in the tower? What is its origin?"

Lin Fan pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Although the spiritual herb is only a seedling, I can feel that it contains extremely powerful vitality. Its appearance may mean that I am about to enter a new realm, but its true meaning, I cannot fully understand it for the time being."

Jiang Shuiling nodded slightly, with a thoughtful look in her eyes: "Everything in the Holy Ruins is full of unknowns. Perhaps this spiritual herb is the key to solving these mysteries."

The four of them focused their attention on Lin Fan, and the atmosphere became silent and solemn. Although none of them could fully understand the true meaning of this spiritual herb, they all realized that they would face even more severe challenges, and Lin Fan's Chaos Tower seemed to play a crucial role in all of this.

Lin Fan gently closed his eyes, feeling the warm breath coming from the Chaos Tower. The power in the tower flowed through his body, gradually merging with his true essence, as if providing him with endless support. This power made him feel at ease, and at the same time made him realize that his cultivation would usher in a qualitative leap.

He sank into the sea of ​​consciousness again, his soul closely connected with the Chaos Tower. The spiritual grass seedlings on the third floor of the tower trembled slightly, emitting a soft light, as if responding to Lin Fan's breath.

Lin Fan stretched out his hand and gently touched the leaves of the spiritual herb. A cool breath passed from his fingertips into his body and instantly spread to his limbs. He felt as if his body had been washed. All the fatigue and heaviness disappeared instantly, replaced by an unprecedented clarity and lightness.

**"This spiritual herb... actually has such powerful power!"** Lin Fan was shocked. He had never seen such pure spiritual power. The power of the spiritual herb seemed to be integrated with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, carrying a mysterious aura that transcended the mundane.

As the power of the spiritual herbs continued to merge into his body, Lin Fan felt that the true essence in his body had undergone a qualitative change. The golden elixir became more solid, and the true essence flowed more smoothly. His cultivation seemed to have broken through a hidden bottleneck at this moment and entered a whole new level.

As Lin Fan's cultivation level increased, the spiritual herbs in the Chaos Tower gradually stopped releasing spiritual power, and the atmosphere in the tower gradually became quiet. However, Lin Fan's heart was in turmoil.

He knew that the opening of the third floor of the Chaos Tower was no accident. The appearance of this spiritual herb meant that he was about to enter a new stage of cultivation, and this spiritual herb might be the key to unlocking the true secret of the Holy Ruins.

"Is the secret of the Holy Ruins... related to this Chaos Tower?" Lin Fan pondered in his heart.

The Chaos Tower was his most important magic weapon, and the Holy Ruins were the most hidden ancient ruins in this world. There seemed to be some kind of secret connection between the two, and even his experience in the Holy Ruins was guiding him step by step towards the core power of the Chaos Tower.
