System: "Congratulations on completing the challenge of the [69]th floor of the Endless Tower. Would you like to continue with the next floor?"

[Continue to the next floor: Floor 70][Cancel]

Lin Yi stood quietly in the ’Refugee Camp’, looking at the prompt in front of him, and suddenly felt a bit hesitant.

As usual, after completing this [70]th floor challenge, a special storyline quest should be triggered again, right?

The storyline quest triggered by Lin Yi after clearing the [60]th floor was to find the key to ’Paradise Island’, which conveniently unlocked a new plane, the Nine Nether Continent.

So if he completes this [70]th floor, what kind of storyline quest would be triggered then?

Currently, in the Endless Tower rankings, despite Lin Yi, the highest rank other than him is not Satan J from the United States War Zone, but the already reclusive Yamada Miki: [65]th floor.

At this time, Satan J’s rank has already dropped to third at the [61]st floor.

It’s estimated that for a long time in the future, unless Lin Yi himself gives up, no one should be able to surpass him and contend for the first place.

And Lin Yi also doesn’t need to worry about anyone reaching the top of the tower before him.

After all, the most important secret for Lin Yi is still kept there.

Because whether it’s the Elder Hong Meng;

Or the Guardian of the Endless Tower;

Even the Dragon-man Morman all mentioned this point consecutively.

Now, the distance to the highest [99]th floor can be said to be a distant view.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi took a deep breath and pressed directly:

"Continue!"

Lin Yi then appeared in a strange place, with sharp gales whistling past his ears.

"This is..."

Lin Yi looked up, surprised to see the surroundings covered in a cloud and mist scenario.

It looked like he must be on some mountain peak.

At the same time, Lin Yi also discovered that beneath his feet was a massive altar engraved with densely packed runes.

When Lin Yi concentrated to gaze at those mysterious runes, he instantly felt dizzy, almost unable to stand.

But strangely enough.

When Lin Yi closed his eyes and stopped looking at those runes, his mind would clear up again, as if what happened before was just an illusion.

But when Lin Yi looked at those mysterious runes again, that dizzy sensation came back.

Forcing Lin Yi to give up the idea of studying those runes.

It seemed as if there was a power preventing him from observing those runes, leaving Lin Yi feeling perplexed and uncertain.

Although Lin Yi didn’t fully understand the things within those runes.

However, Lin Yi knew that there must be some secret hidden within these runes.

Just as Lin Yi temporarily gave up observing those runes, a sudden shock came to his heart.

Soon, Lin Yi noticed a very important issue:

"Strange, why are there no quest prompts?"

Usually, when a player is teleported into the Endless Tower, they receive system information about the mission objectives and prompts for that floor almost simultaneously.

But since Lin Yi arrived here, a few minutes have passed, and there has still been no task prompt.

Lin Yi frowned, puzzled, saying:

"Could it be a BUG?"

This was the first time Lin Yi encountered such an issue.

Seeing that the system provided no information about this floor, Lin Yi could only temporarily shift his attention to the current place he was in.

Within the entire altar, aside from those mysterious runes above, there was nothing else worth noting.

Lin Yi tried to walk to the edge; below the altar was a bottomless cliff, but along the cliff’s edge, lush trees and flowers grew.

Besides that, when Lin Yi cast his gaze outside the altar, he was enveloped in a thick layer of cloud and mist.

Lin Yi tried to fly, but he received a prompt that flight was restricted.

At the same time, Jade Qilin, White Tiger, and Guderian did not come along.

Now it was silent except for Lin Yi.

Apart from the howling mountain wind, there was no other movement.

Though he couldn’t see the whole picture here, Lin Yi’s mind already had a rough outline of his location.

Under his feet should be a mountain peak severed in half.

And the altar was set at the break, where Lin Yi stood.

When Lin Yi walked around the altar, he found that aside from a fist-sized hole in the center, the entire altar seemed to have seamlessly merged with the mountain peak.

Because of the runes’ presence, Lin Yi didn’t dare to observe too closely.

Only the hole in the center of the altar didn’t affect Lin Yi when he looked at it.

However, upon close inspection inside, nothing out of the ordinary was found.

After fiddling for half a day, Lin Yi stood on the altar with a face full of speechlessness:

"What’s going on?"

"Could it be that the test on this level is just to come here and enjoy the mountain wind?"

Lin Yi tried selecting [Exit].

But as soon as he pressed [Exit], the interface in front of him popped up a message:

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

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

Lin Yi stared at the options in front of him, dumbfounded:

"What is going on?"

How did the challenge of this [70]th floor just get skipped over so straightforwardly?

This sudden turn of events left Lin Yi momentarily stunned and dumbstruck.

Even though he skipped over one floor, to be honest, Lin Yi didn’t feel a single bit of excitement.

Instead, he felt something off.

There was a vague sense of awkwardness that made Lin Yi feel a bit irritated.

Just as Lin Yi was about to select [Continue], his hand stopped mid-air, hesitating to press it down.

According to the rules of the Endless Tower, if he chooses [Continue], then he will never have the opportunity to return to this [70]th floor.

With Lin Yi’s understanding of this game, such an obvious BUG couldn’t possibly exist.

This meant that there was definitely something special about this [70]th floor that he hadn’t discovered yet.

If he chose to enter the next floor, the secrets of the [70]th floor would not be his to unveil, leaving it to the next person to discover.

But if he selected [Cancel], then it seemed he would have to wait 30 days to challenge the Endless Tower again.

The [Cancel] option even carried such a penalty?

And a cool-down time of 30 days at that.

Nowadays, with the Demon Forest and later Paradise Island opening, players’ strength will see significant leaps.

Who knows what might happen during these 30 days.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi stood there dumbfounded:

"How on earth am I supposed to choose?"
