These disciples had all braved the Demon Suppressing Tower and knew of the hardships and dangers within. The demonic beasts in the tower harbored no emotions; they were driven by the simplest instinct to kill. Disciples who were even slightly weaker not only failed to pass the levels but might also risk their lives.

Even the strongest disciples faced immense crises upon entering the Demon Suppressing Tower, as the demonic beasts fought with no regard for their own lives.

But Ye Chen overturned everyone's understanding, barreling through the Demon Suppressing Tower and reaching the top in a matter of dozens of breaths. His performance stunned everyone present.

"How can Ye Chen be so powerful? Holy Maiden Feng Wu wasn't even this fast when she challenged the tower!" Ye Chen's performance shocked ordinary disciples and even more so the True Disciples present.

True Disciples had a broader perspective and could grasp the significance of this feat—they knew what it meant!

"Ninety floors!" A disciple suddenly exclaimed, witnessing the miracle.

"My God, is another Saint Heir about to emerge?"

In such a highly-anticipated event, Ye Chen's ascent to the ninetieth floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower was incredibly cool and impressive. It was as if he were following the rhythm of becoming a Saint Heir all along!

"Such young supreme figures are rare in history; I had never imagined that our Baihua Palace would gain another!"

"Everything happened so quickly; it feels like I'm dreaming!"

Ye Chen's vigorous performance was dreamlike. His rapid rise was so fast that it was almost blinding.

"Damn it! I bet a million Vajra Elixirs on you becoming a True Disciple, and you're going all the way to become a Saint Heir. Can't we play this game properly?" A male disciple wailed, seemingly heartbroken, as if he was about to die.

"Your million is nothing, Miss here lost eight million!" A female disciple spoke up, her loss even greater.

Almost no disciple present had faith in Ye Chen reaching the ninetieth floor, so they had all placed their bets on Inner Sect Disciples, Core Disciples, and True Disciples. Now that Ye Chen had shot up to the ninetieth floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower, those who had placed bets were clearly wiped out by Ye Chen.

"Hahaha, thankfully I'm brilliantly wise and saw Ms. Tao as a goddess. I followed her and bet on the ninetieth floor!" Among the thousands of disciples, a male cultivator laughed wildly. "I bet a full million Vajra Elixirs, with odds of one to one hundred; that's a win of one hundred million Vajra Elixirs. Now I'm truly rich!"

"..."

Some disciples, seeing the man's wild behavior, wished they could go up and strangle him to death; show-offs are the worst!

"Boom!"

Just then, the Demon Suppressing Tower suddenly erupted with terror, spreading an inscrutable divine authority that shocked the heavens. Centered around the tower, waves of dread radiated, shaking Baihua Palace and impacting each disciple's spirit.

"My God, what's happening? The Demon Suppressing Tower...?"

This endless disturbance alarmed the entire Baihua Palace, astonishing countless disciples who all turned their gaze towards the tower.

"What formidable pressure!"

Within a secret land of Baihua Palace, Holy Maiden Feng Wu was deep in secluded cultivation when she suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.

"Something's not right, the pressure is coming from the Demon Suppressing Tower. Someone has surpassed the ultimate limit and reached the final nine floors!" Holy Maiden Feng Wu's expression changed as she stood and headed toward the tower.

"Something big is happening at the Demon Suppressing Tower, I have to go see..." A Core Disciple felt the pressure and immediately rushed towards the Demon Suppressing Tower, where it seemed a world-shaking event was taking place.

"What's with the fluctuations coming from the direction of the Demon Suppressing Tower; what on earth happened?" Some disciples hesitated for a moment before also making their way to the tower.

"Let's go, quickly to the Demon Suppressing Tower; something big must have happened!"

The pressure from the Demon Suppressing Tower involved the entire Baihua Palace, stunning many. A large crowd of Baihua Palace disciples surged towards the tower, eager to find out what was happening.

"My God, Ye Chen, he... he has ascended to the ninety-first floor!" Outside the Demon Suppressing Tower, countless disciples gasped in horror as if they had seen something more terrifying than ghosts.

The Demon Suppressing Tower radiated a horrifying aura, impacting everyone's spirit. On its ninety-first floor, a slender figure emerged to contend with a terrifying demonic beast, clearly visible to the disciples outside the tower.

"Holy Maiden couldn't reach the ninety-first floor; how could Ye Chen possibly make it?"

The man who had boasted about winning a hundred million just moments ago had his eyes bulging out, looking as if he had just eaten feces.

"You want to win a hundred million, go home and eat shit!" A female disciple mocked.

"..."

"The final nine floors of the Demon Suppressing Tower have been untouched for nearly a thousand years; how could Ye Chen possibly climb them?"

Ye Chen's figure appeared on the ninety-first floor, clearly engaged in battle with a fearsome demonic beast. But Ye Chen's overwhelming strength was inconceivable, beyond understanding.

"The difference between the ninetieth and ninety-first floors seems like a single step, yet it's like the difference between heaven and earth. Not even Holy Maiden Feng Wu or Fairy Qin Yan could take this step; how could Ye Chen have the capability to surpass them?"

Just a moment ago, Ye Chen was an unknown nobody, and the next he had become a super tycoon, a twist of fate too much for some to accept.

The phantom on the ninety-first floor became more and more substantial. Ye Chen seemed like a young Divine King, battling a huge beast with its body flame-wrapped, its spiky tail, and terrifying maw spewing divine flames as if capable of crumbling all worlds.

"Immortal supremacy, one punch through the heavens!"

Ye Chen was most skilled with fist Divine Skills. With one punch, he could disperse spirits and gods, using this to fight the formidable beast.

However, Ye Chen's strongest move was the Heavenly Emperor Fist. This fist could surely devastate the beast if released.

But at this moment, he dared not use it carelessly, fearing it would bring disaster upon him and cast him into an unimaginable crisis.

"Roar!"

Ye Chen's boxing technique unleashed an unrivaled brilliance, dispersing the divine flames on the giant beast's body, that aroused its fury. The terrifying tail came sweeping towards him erratically, intent on shattering Ye Chen.

Before the tail could hit him, Ye Chen felt the imminent danger, his thoughts racing as he quickly sidestepped to avoid the devastating strike.

"Roar!"

The colossal beast let out a roar akin to that of a dragon as it failed to hit its target. Spewing scorching divine flames from its mouth, it aimed to incinerate Ye Chen.

"Buddha's Anger Lotus, Immovable King!"

A radiant Buddha's light burst forth from Ye Chen, forming a protective circle around him, and behind him materialized an Immovable King, who hurled a fist violently at the giant beast.

"Boom!"

Ye Chen's punch was fierce and dazzling, extinguishing the divine flames breathed out by the beast, and sending its body reeling from the impact.

"Kill!"

Ye Chen maintained the Path of All Things. Although he could not utilize his strongest Divine Skills, he still fought with valor and had the might of a young Supreme Being.

"Roar!"

The beast's roar made the Demon Suppressing Tower shake, its mighty hooves threatening to burst the 91st floor as if it wanted to break free from the tower.

"Boom!"

Ye Chen's punch shook heaven and earth, the beast's divine flames burned fiercely, and their intense clash made the Demon Suppressing Tower tremble, startling the entire Baihua Palace.

The battle within the Demon Suppressing Tower grew more and more ferocious; its beasts were mighty and even stronger than a typical young Supreme Being.

Moreover, the titan's body was shrouded in divine flames, its defenses were so strong that not even young Supreme Beings could break through them!

Ye Chen's body transformed into a soaring dragon, with divine beast phantoms occasionally bursting forth to suppress the giant beast wildly. Although the efforts were in vain, they created numerous dangers for it.

However, with the monstrous strength of the giant beast and Ye Chen's need to sustain the Path of All Things, preventing him from unleashing his strongest Divine Skills, it was difficult to slay the creature.

As Ye Chen fiercely battled on the 91st floor, the area outside the Demon Suppressing Tower was teeming with disciples, all stirred by the commotion and gathering to see what was happening.

"Someone has ascended to the 91st floor, surpassing Holy Maiden Feng Wu, surpassing all the recent Holy Maidens!"

"Ye Chen? That's a rather unfamiliar name!"

"This person is actually a male cultivator, a male from Baihua Palace?!"

Shadows flitted across the 91st floor, locked in fierce battle with a giant beast. The earth-shattering fight caused the Demon Suppressing Tower to quiver, leaving the observing disciples stunned.

The Demon Suppressing Tower is a crucial place for Baihua Palace, where countless disciples have soared to great heights, becoming the most dazzling among their peers.

The 99 floors of the Demon Suppressing Tower each hold their own significance, especially the final nine floors. For nearly a thousand years, no disciple had managed to reach them, making their meaning profound, laden with glory, brilliance, and splendor!

Within Baihua Palace, there were young Supreme Beings like Fairy Qin Yan and Holy Maiden Feng Wu, but they had all come to a halt at the 90th floor, unable to take a step further—a gap that seemed insurmountable!

Yet, no one had touched the final nine floors in a millennium, and today, someone had forcefully entered them, and what was more, that person was a man?!

"Holy Maiden Feng Wu has arrived!"

More and more disciples gathered, and suddenly, an exclamation erupted from the crowd as someone recognized the Holy Maiden of Baihua Palace—Feng Wu!

Feng Wu was the pride of Baihua Palace, an undefeated young Supreme Being. Even though she was defeated by the Heavenly Emperor, she remained invincible in the eyes of her fellow disciples.

"Holy Maiden!" A few True Disciples approached Feng Wu, all wearing serious expressions and bearing an indescribable sense of gravity.

"Who is this Ye Chen?" Holy Maiden Feng Wu inquired, looking towards the shadow on the 91st floor.

"He is Leng Aofu's attendant!" one True Disciple explained.

"An attendant?" Feng Wu frowned, perplexed.

"Leng Aofu arrived at the Demon Suppressing Tower today and set up a betting game with odds of one to a hundred, drawing countless disciples into frenzied betting…"

A True Disciple narrated the events of the day, not a single detail omitted, informing Holy Maiden Feng Wu of the entire ordeal.

Baihua Palace had three major Core Disciples: Qin Yan, Feng Wu—as young Supreme Beings—and Leng Aofu, whose combat power was just a notch below. Yet, she had many supporters, hence the equilibrium of power among the three was on a knife-edge.

But now, Leng Aofu had suddenly disrupted the balance by taking on a young Supreme Being as an attendant, causing bewilderment and consternation among the others.

"Did you all place your bets on the 90th, 91st, 92nd, 93rd, and 94th floors?" Holy Maiden Feng Wu, seemingly unconcerned with Ye Chen's meteoric rise, was more interested in the betting event.

"With those odds, 50 million could turn into 5 billion. Even with Leng Aofu's all-encompassing bets, it wouldn't cover her loss this time!"

The stakes of this betting game were astronomical, and as large as they were frightening. With a single misstep in her strategy, Leng Aofu could lose everything, landing herself in a debt too grand to pay.
