Cultivators continually entered the Alliance Dao Tower, while others were relentlessly cast out. When Joe Di walked into the Alliance Dao Tower, no one paid him any attention at all.
As soon as Joe Di stepped into the Alliance Dao Tower, he found himself inside a vast circular hall. Instantly, he sensed the power of cosmic laws—countless foundational laws interwoven into myriad rules. Due to the confined space, the aura of these laws was exceptionally distinct within the hall.
Because the aura of laws was so clear, the hall was packed with cultivators meditating on Dao Rhythms. However, since Joe Di cultivated the Dao of Laws itself, he scarcely needed to sit down. With just a sweep of his divine sense, he effortlessly perceived several foundational laws he had never encountered before.
Joe Di didn’t even pause. When he found a place where the cosmic laws grew more profound, the staircase to the second level appeared before him.
On the second level of the Alliance Dao Tower, the power of laws was noticeably stronger, and the aura of rules far surpassed that of the first level. Here, the foundational laws were even more densely concentrated.
Joe Di’s Dao of Laws had long since entered the second stage—and he had already achieved mastery in it. The power of laws and foundational rules here were practically insignificant to him.
The second level of the Alliance Dao Tower wasn’t a place for him to linger either. With some experience now, Joe Di located the area where laws converged and advanced to the third level.
A handful of cultivators who hadn’t begun meditating yet watched in shock as Joe Di vanished almost as soon as he entered—clearly ascending to the third level. Those familiar with the Alliance Dao Tower began to sense that a top-tier powerhouse might once again emerge from its depths.
The third level seemed little different from the second, except that the aura of cosmic laws was more profound, and some rules were even clearer. Yet, this still offered little benefit to Joe Di. He felt that such a place was best suited for cultivating law-based divine abilities.
But since he already cultivated the Dao of Laws, there was no need for him to meditate on the power of laws here or to train in various law-based divine abilities.
When Joe Di reached the fourth level of the Alliance Dao Tower with a hint of disappointment, he was swept by a wave of law power twice as strong as that of the third level.
Joe Di closed his eyes and circulated his energy for one complete cycle, a trace of anticipation appearing in his eyes.
The fourth level of the Alliance Dao Tower was extremely helpful for cultivators training in law-based divine abilities, but it didn’t offer him much benefit. What excited him was the realization that cultivating in such a place would allow him to progress faster than outside.
If the power of laws here grew even greater, and the cosmic laws became more profound and distinct, what would happen if he cultivated inside? He might even break through to the late-stage Chaotic Origin Realm.
The more Joe Di thought about it, the more likely it seemed. He quickly sped up, realizing that to achieve the effect he desired, he would have to reach even higher levels of the Alliance Dao Tower.
......
As Joe Di charged up to the ninth level of the Alliance Dao Tower, the plaza outside had become completely abuzz. Alliance Star was not a commercial planet, nor an important cultivation city in the void. The reason so many cultivators gathered here was simply because of the Alliance Dao Tower.
Thus, cultivators who came to Alliance Star were mostly concentrated around the Alliance Dao Tower.
Now that someone had reached the ninth level of the Alliance Dao Tower, it was causing a sensation across the entire Outer Heaven Void Domain.
Cultivators kept sending messages out, and more and more people rushed toward Alliance Star.
Unaware of all this, Joe Di grew increasingly excited. With each level he ascended, the aura of cosmic laws became clearer and the pressure from the laws intensified. However, it was still impossible for the tower to force him out.
In the blink of an eye, Joe Di had already reached the eleventh level.
Wild surges of law power swept over him as Joe Di operated the cycle of laws with all his strength. With each completed cycle, he could sense his cultivation advancing to a new level, making him even more eager to reach the top of the Alliance Dao Tower.
At this rate, if he reached the top of the Alliance Dao Tower, he would absolutely have a chance to break through to the late-stage Chaotic Origin Realm in the shortest time possible.
Joe Di’s cycle of laws protected him, yet the overwhelming power of the laws still tore at his sacred body, making cracking sounds. The force grew ever more immense, but it still couldn’t drive Joe Di out of the eleventh level.
Joe Di wasn’t content to remain and cultivate on this level. In no time, he found the staircase to the twelfth level and stepped into it.
Boom! The moment he entered the twelfth level, a nearly suffocating surge of law power swept over him. Compared to the eleventh level, this force was more than twice as strong—it felt as if the entire universe had split apart, with violent cosmic Dao Rhythms crashing onto him.
For the first time, Joe Di summoned the Tian Sable Blade and slashed out with the Rift Blade technique.
Crack! Joe Di immediately felt the pressure ease around him as the surrounding laws shattered, and the rules of the twelfth level of the Alliance Dao Tower became even clearer and more vast.
Yet the violent surge of law power continued relentlessly, crashing against Joe Di like raging waves. Even his sea of consciousness was swept by the force, and his soul felt an extreme suppression that nearly left him unable to breathe.
Joe Di was certain that even the slightest lapse would see him swept out of the Alliance Dao Tower at any moment. His cycle of laws spun frantically, and at the same time, his divine sense refinement continued unabated.
Soon, Joe Di noticed that with each completed cycle of laws, the terrifying force suppressing him weakened slightly.
Moreover, Joe Di even discovered that his law cultivation method seemed to have a faint connection with the Alliance Dao Tower itself—a connection rooted in the vast cosmic laws.
As Joe Di cultivated this way, the wild surge of law power swiftly diminished, his cultivation rose once again, and his sea of consciousness began to strengthen rapidly as well.

In just ten days, Joe Di’s cultivation had advanced another level. He was certain that if he stayed on the twelfth level and used a few supreme divine spirit veins, he’d have full confidence in breaking through to the late-stage Chaotic Origin Realm.
But Joe Di knew this would take many years. What he lacked most was time. Besides, from the moment he entered the Alliance Dao Tower, the higher he climbed, the stronger the cosmic law power became, and the resonance between the tower’s laws and his own cycle of laws grew ever tighter.
Since that was the case, why not ascend to the top level of the Alliance Dao Tower and then cultivate at his leisure?
Joe Di immediately abandoned the twelfth level and entered the thirteenth. He was already thinking that if Geng Ji ever arrived in this void, he must let Geng Ji cultivate here for a while. This place was perfect for him to improve his cultivation, and for Geng Ji, it was ideal for training divine abilities.
......
When the golden mark for the thirteenth level lit up on the Alliance Dao Monument, the entire plaza outside the Alliance Dao Tower erupted in excitement.
How many years had it been? Since the Alliance Dao Tower first appeared, no one had ever reached the thirteenth level. The highest anyone had gone was the twelfth. When did someone manage to reach the thirteenth? Yet today, someone had finally ascended to the thirteenth level.
Almost everyone wanted to know: who was the cultivator that had stepped into the thirteenth level of the Alliance Dao Tower?
Alliance Star was large, but the liveliest place was always the Alliance Star Plaza. The rest of the star was sparsely populated, mainly because it was not a sacred land for cultivation.
At that moment, in a humble cave dwelling at the farthest corner of Alliance Star, a young man with a red crown and a hint of demonic aura in his eyes suddenly stood up. He stared excitedly in the direction of the Alliance Star Plaza and murmured, “I’ve waited so many years, and finally someone has once again reached the twelfth level of the Alliance Dao Tower.”
The next moment, he rushed out of the cave dwelling and sped toward the Alliance Dao Tower plaza.

(Recommendation for two books: One is 'Nine Dragons Swallowing Pearl' by Qi Jia Qige, a xianxia novel I’ve read—it’s a bit lean now, but you can bookmark it and come back when it’s fatter. The other is 'Pay-to-Win Immortal' by Wu Zhi. As the name suggests, it’s also a xianxia novel.)
