Chapter 326 Demon Suppressing Tower Third Layer
Wayless Sect, Discipline Hall.
Giant Tower second layer.
At this moment.
Su Xi and Divine Doctor Hua had arrived here.
The two had walked up from the first floor, wanting to see what differences there were between the second layer and the first.
However, after the two of them ascended, they were somewhat disappointed.
Because the second layer and the first didn't have any differences.
It was still that same road, then a portal, and then a clearing.
Just like the first layer.
Divine Doctor Hua looked at the clearing ahead and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Senior Sister, it seems that this tower is nothing much after all."
"According to the rules, there's probably another 'Illusory Realm' here."
Divine Doctor Hua shook his head as he spoke.
"Hmm."
Su Xi answered with just a word and didn't say much more.
The two quietly gazed forward.
As expected.
After a short while.
Both their minds trembled simultaneously.
The Illusory Realm seemed about to appear.
Only this time, the two of them didn't give the Illusory Realm a chance to emerge.
Both employed their respective methods.
Before the Illusory Realm had appeared, they shattered it.
"Senior Sister, this Illusory Realm really isn't much, I wonder what it could possibly stop..."
Divine Doctor Hua once again voiced his criticism.
"There's still the third layer."
Su Xi, looking at the staircase entrance that appeared after the Illusory Realm broke, spoke up.
"The third layer might also be an Illusory Realm of this caliber."
Divine Doctor Hua rolled his eyes as he spoke.
Talk as he might, he was still ready to head towards the Demon Suppression Tower Third Layer.
Since Respected Master had sent them here, no matter what, they had to attempt to conquer the Giant Tower. Discover stories at My Virtual Library Empire
"Wait a moment, Junior Brother, don't you feel that, with each barrier we overcome, we have become stronger?"
Su Xi called out to Divine Doctor Hua and spoke slowly.
"Ah? Stronger?"
Divine Doctor Hua had not paid attention to this aspect at all.
It was only after Su Xi pointed it out that he began to examine himself.
He paid a bit of attention and indeed found out, just as Su Xi had said, his body had been enhanced...
Or rather, not the body, but... Mental State!
Mental State is something intangible; enhancement doesn't show on the surface, so if you don't pay attention, it's really not easy to detect.
"Can this tower enhance Mental State? With each layer passed, Mental State is enhanced?"
Divine Doctor Hua's eyes lit up.
He thought as much, Respected Master wouldn't have sent them to the Discipline Hall for no reason.
So Respected Master intended for them to enhance their Mental State in the Discipline Hall.
In their cultivation, their strength was the only thing being enhanced, their own Mental State was difficult to elevate; it seems Respected Master considered this and hence sent them to the Discipline Hall.
Respected Master, I understand!
Divine Doctor Hua's eyes shone brightly as he looked towards the staircase leading to the third floor.
"Let's go, to the third layer."
Su Xi's small hand pointed towards the staircase to the third floor and uttered a sentence.
"Alright, Senior Sister, let's go!"
Divine Doctor Hua answered eagerly.
This time he didn't wait for Su Xi to go first, stepping towards the direction of the staircase immediately.
Su Xi followed behind Divine Doctor Hua.
The stairway from the second to the third layer was not like the one from the first to the second.
The entrance to the third layer was a curtain of light that made it impossible to see what was actually inside.
Divine Doctor Hua walked in without hesitation.
Su Xi also hurried to follow.
Together, they stepped into the curtain of light.
All they felt was a blinding flash passing before their eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves above the clouds.
Around them, countless mists twined, and beneath their feet, it was like a mirror. With every step, ripples fanned out.
"Is this...is this another space? Did the third layer of the tower directly bring us to an alternate dimension?"
Divine Doctor Hua paused, speaking somewhat astonished.
He hadn't anticipated the tower's capability to be so immense.
The first and second layers were unremarkable.
The third layer brought them directly to an alternate space.
Divine Doctor Hua was about to say something to Su Xi beside him.
Suddenly, a globe of light fell from the sky, drifting directly in front of the two of them.
Almost simultaneously, they both moved, retreating backward.
Divine Doctor Hua went even further, waving his hand to release billowing Death Qi to protect both Su Xi and himself.
However, the globe of light showed no sign of activity, merely floating in mid-air as if harboring no ill will.
Hum!
The globe of light trembled slightly when it noticed Su Xi and Divine Doctor Hua backing away.
A voice emanated from within the globe of light.
"This is the Demon Suppression Tower Third Layer."
"After a stick of incense burns down, the Demon Suppression Tower Third Layer will activate. This layer will create a form based on the person you fear most in your hearts, which you must defeat to pass this level."
"Be fully aware of this!"
Having delivered these words, the globe of light dispersed into countless sparkles, vanishing as if it had never existed.
On the other side, Su Xi and Divine Doctor Hua were stunned upon hearing these words.
Does this tower possess sentience? Or was that merely a manifestation of the rules?
The two exchanged glances, both somewhat surprised.
"Senior sister, it seems this tower is no simple matter."
Divine Doctor Hua took a deep breath and retracted all the Death Qi around him.
"Hmm, are you scared?"
Su Xi suddenly turned her head to look at Divine Doctor Hua, revealing a pair of canines with a smile.
"Scared of what? After all, we're in the Wayless Sect. It's hardly like they could actually take our lives."
Divine Doctor Hua shook his head as he spoke.
"Well then, that settles it. If you're scared, Junior Brother, just tell me, and your Senior Sister will protect you."
As Su Xi said this, she even lifted her hand, intending to pat Divine Doctor Hua's head, but found herself to be too short to reach him.
This left Su Xi feeling awkward.
With her small hand hanging in mid-air, she seemed unsure whether to advance or retreat.
"Senior sister, stop joking around. We should prepare ourselves."
Divine Doctor Hua waved his hand and stepped back.
Upon hearing this,
Su Xi didn't say anything more, retracting her hand and straightening out her clothes.
After that, the two didn't converse much, quietly waiting for the third layer of the tower to activate.
They were both curious about the words of the globe of light.
To create a form based on the person they feared most in their hearts.
They were eager to know who that person was.
The two waited quietly.
After a stick of incense had burned down.
A sudden change occurred in the previously tranquil cloud layer.
A strong burst of light beamed down from above.
With the speed of lightning, it pierced right through both Su Xi and Divine Doctor Hua.
This burst of light caused them no harm.
Instead, it made the two feel as if the light were probing their innermost feelings.
They reacted quickly, but the light was faster. In just an instant of illumination, it retracted.
The burst of light disappeared once again.
The next moment, countless sparkles gathered from all directions, forming a figure.
With its back to Su Xi and Divine Doctor Hua, a sense of an ethereal, exiled immortal's presence spontaneously emerged, shaking their spirits.
The two exchanged a glance, both filled with dread...
