System: "Congratulations on completing the challenge of the [70th] floor of the Endless Tower. Would you like to continue to the next floor?"

[Continue to the next floor: 71st floor] [Cancel] (Cancel: You can try again after 30 days)

At the peak of a mountain, at the center of a mysterious altar, a tall figure stood.

Suddenly, a ray of golden light broke through the clouds and shone down.

Bringing a touch of warmth and color to this cold altar.

It was at this moment that Lin Yi suddenly spoke:

"Cancel"

When Lin Yi clicked [Cancel], a dialog box appeared once again before him:

System: "Would you like to exit the current instance?"

[Exit] [Cancel]

This time, Lin Yi didn’t hesitate and directly chose:

[Cancel]

If he were to choose [Exit] at this moment, Lin Yi would have 30 days where he couldn’t re-enter the Endless Tower.

It also meant that if Lin Yi wanted to unravel the mystery of this floor, this was his last chance.

Because even if he returned after thirty days, he would go directly to the [71st] floor instead of the current [70th] floor.

...

The reason Lin Yi made this decision was exactly because.

Just when Lin Yi was still hesitating, it was that ray of light from the sky that changed his mind.

As soon as the light shone on the runes of the altar, those runes that used to cause Lin Yi a severe headache suddenly appeared to come alive and began to wriggle.

It was this very discovery that made Lin Yi make this decision.

Soon, Lin Yi found out that despite the runes being previously unbearable to stare at, under the light they seemed totally normal.

When Lin Yi looked at them again, the dizziness and nausea were no longer present.

Of course, this only applied to the part illuminated by the light.

For the surrounding areas not touched by the light, Lin Yi still couldn’t look at them directly.

What puzzled Lin Yi even more was that if he didn’t closely examine the runes, everything was fine.

But if Lin Yi tried to study a particular rune, the intense discomfort would return.

In other words.

Only when Lin Yi earnestly observed those mysterious runes would he experience that unpleasant abnormal reaction.

If Lin Yi didn’t focus on them, everything was normal.

Yet the less than ten centimeters spot that the light touched was not restricted by this.

Under Lin Yi’s apprehensive gaze.

The spot illuminated by the light, the runes on it wriggled, quickly transforming from incomprehensible symbols into a large and a small line.

This change left Lin Yi completely perplexed.

However, Lin Yi realized, the key to unraveling this mysterious altar lay in the enigmatic light behind the clouds.

Unfortunately, the sky was covered with dense clouds, and even the opening where the light had shone was soon blocked.

The world plunged back into gloom and silence, with only the howling mountain winds whispering something.

What shocked Lin Yi even more was that as the light faded, the previously wriggling runes reverted to their original state.

When Lin Yi looked at them, the dizziness returned.

This forced Lin Yi to avert his gaze.

Clearly, to solve the secret of the [70th] floor, the thick clouds above needed to be dispelled.

Only by bathing the entire altar in light might the answer reveal itself.

However, even though Lin Yi grasped the key to this floor, he was still at a loss.

How could he dispel the shadowy coverage hovering over the sky?

At that moment, Lin Yi suddenly spotted a shadow moving back and forth above the clouds.

Seeing this, Lin Yi’s heart raced:

"Who!"

Lin Yi shouted loudly, trying to draw the other’s attention:

"Who’s there!"

The loud voice echoed through the valley, uncertain if the shadow above the clouds heard it.

Seeing the shadow moving further away, Lin Yi quickly grew anxious:

"Whoever’s there, stop!"

But the shadow didn’t stop moving.

Seeing something finally moving besides himself on this desolate altar, Lin Yi certainly didn’t want it to just slip away.

In that split second, Lin Yi immediately:

[Switch to Flight Mode]

Two pairs of pure Feather Wings suddenly unfolded behind Lin Yi.

Now with Jade Qilin, White Tiger, and even Guderian un-summonable, Lin Yi could only fly up himself to investigate.

As soon as the wings spread, Lin Yi vigorously flapped them, shooting towards the sky like an arrow off the string.

As Lin Yi left the altar, he immediately felt a gust of air rushing towards him.

While Lin Yi ascended, the air was like a freezing Gale slicing across his face.

Lin Yi endured the chilling, piercing pain, feeling himself getting closer to the clouds above.

But soon Lin Yi realized a harsh reality.

As he moved further from the altar, his body felt heavier and heavier.

What should have been rapid progress with outspread wings now felt arduous with each meter gained.
