In a moment of desperation, Fang Chen grabbed Luo Liuli's small, fair hand and stopped her from moving.
Luo Liuli's face flushed as Fang Chen held her hand. She lowered her head, feeling a little shy.
Only now did Fang Chen realize his rudeness. He hastily let go of her hand and said, "This glowing stone isn't the inheritance. It's just a decoy. Once you touch it, it'll be very dangerous."
Luo Liuli's expression gradually returned to normal. She curiously asked, "How did you know?"
Fang Chen smiled. "It's a secret."
Fang Chen continued forward with Luo Liuli. However, Fang Chen continued to chat with Ancestor Bronze as they walked.
"Ancestor, since you recognized this glowing stone as a decoy, do you know where the true inheritance is?" asked Fang Chen.
"Of course I do. Don't you know who I am?" said Ancestor Bronze.
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier? You made me bitterly search for half a month." Fang Chen was speechless for a moment.
"I'm tempering you. I can't let things go so smoothly for you," said Ancestor Bronze.
In truth, even Ancestor Bronze hadn't been able to find the inheritance when he first entered. He had only vaguely sensed where the true inheritance was after half a month of searching.
Of course, he naturally wouldn't tell Fang Chen who he was. He was Ancestor Bronze, an existence who had suppressed an era. How could he lose face in front of a junior?
After chatting with Ancestor Bronze for a bit, Fang Chen quickly followed the direction Ancestor Bronze had pointed out.
Although this was a natural illusion, it wasn't much for Ancestor Bronze.
Given Old Ancestor Bronze's current state, it would be impossible for him to break through the illusion. However, seeing through the illusion was a piece of cake for him.
After walking for about two hours in the dreamland, Fang Chen finally came to a stop.
Seeing Fang Chen stop, Luo Liuli asked, "Did you find the inheritance?"
"The inheritance should be here."
Fang Chen said faintly. He frowned and looked around. It was empty. There was nothing.
"Ancestor, where is the inheritance?" Fang Chen secretly asked.
"Follow your current direction and take three steps forward. Then, turn left and take one step. Then, turn right and take two steps," Ancestor Bronze said.
Fang Chen nodded. Then, he followed Old Ancestor Bronze's instructions and walked slowly.
At this moment, the Tower Spirit was observing all the cultivators in the Tower amidst the gray mist.
When he saw Tie Yun and Shen Jiang appear, his eyes turned cold, and a murderous intent emerged from the illusion.
"Remnants of the Yellow Springs Sect, I didn't expect you to hide so deeply."
The Pagoda Spirit muttered to himself. Even though he now knew of the existence of the remnants of the Yellow Spring Sect, he was still the Pagoda Spirit. There was no way he could deal with the remnants of the Yellow Spring Sect. He could only rely on the help of others.
"I wonder which warrior will be able to obtain Master's inheritance. If it's really not possible, I can guide them a little." The Tower Spirit's face was filled with anxiety as he turned to look at the location of the inheritance.
When he saw what he saw, he was incomparably shocked.
That was because there were two figures in the inheritance. Those two figures were naturally Fang Chen and Luo Liuli.
"Did they find the inheritance? Or did they just happen to pass by?" The Tower Spirit was filled with anxiety as he stared at the two of them.
However, just as Fang Chen stepped forward, a smile appeared on the Tower Spirit's face. He was very excited. Fang Chen's steps were exactly the same as the location of the inheritance.
"How is this possible? He actually found it in such a short time!" The Tower Spirit was incomparably shocked.
Under the Tower Spirit's gaze, Fang Chen successfully found the inheritance.
At this time, Fang Chen was on the ground, following Ancestor Bronze's guidance. When he stood on a very inconspicuous ground, the ground suddenly trembled and the pagoda spirit appeared.
"Little fellow, you're not bad. You were actually able to find the inheritance." The Tower Spirit looked at Fang Chen with satisfaction.
This sudden change caused Luo Liuli's face to reveal a shocked expression.
"He really found the inheritance!"
Luo Liuli looked at Tie Niu with a complicated expression.
"Senior."
Fang Chen recognized the Tower Spirit and respectfully greeted him.
"Little fellow, since you found the inheritance, you have the qualifications to accept my master's inheritance. However, my master's inheritance is extremely powerful. If you can't accept it, you'll suffer a cultivation deviation," said the Tower Spirit.
Fang Chen nodded, and then the Tower Spirit looked at Luo Liuli. "Little fellow, according to the rules, you should be the one to find the inheritance. But my master once said that if someone else finds the inheritance at the same time, then the lady has to go first."
Hearing the tower spirit's words, Luo Liuli was stunned. The master of the Floating Tower had actually set such a rule.
"Since it's your master's rule, then let Luo Liuli go first." Fang Chen nodded.
"Tie Niu, you found it first. You should be the one to accept it," said Luo Liuli a bit embarrassedly.
"This is my master's rule. How can it be changed? You can go first. But I can tell you with certainty that with your strength, it'll be a bit difficult for you to obtain my master's inheritance," said the Tower Spirit directly.
The Tower Spirit immediately saw through Luo Liuli's strength. Although she was very strong, she was the weakest of the nine people who had entered the floating tower.
Luo Liuli didn't say anything else. She looked apologetically at Fang Chen and then sat down to accept the inheritance.
The moment Luo Liuli sat down in a lotus position, a greyish aura suddenly entered her body from the ground.
At this moment, a trace of pain appeared on Luo Liuli's face.
"Senior, she should be fine, right?" asked Fang Chen.
"She's fine," said the Tower Spirit.
Time slowly passed. In the blink of an eye, six hours had passed. During those six hours, Luo Liuli had been accepting the inheritance.
However, as time passed, Luo Liuli's aura became more and more chaotic. In the end, her body began to tremble. Her situation was very dangerous.
"She's unable to accept my master's inheritance. She's about to go crazy," said the Tower Spirit.
"Then what do we do?" asked Fang Chen hastily.
"Place your hands on her body and absorb my master's aura. Then she'll slowly recover," said the Tower Spirit.
Fang Chen nodded and did as the tower spirit said. He sat behind Luo Liuli and placed his hands on her back. Immediately, a wild suction force appeared and sucked away all the aura of the tower's master from Luo Liuli's body.
About fifteen minutes later, Luo Liuli woke up from the brink of going berserk. When she realized that Fang Chen's hands were on her back, a blush appeared on her face.
"Little girl, you were unable to accept my master's inheritance and almost went crazy. He was the one who saved you," said the Tower Spirit as it looked down at Luo Liuli.
When Luo Liuli heard this, a trace of surprise appeared on her face. She immediately stood up and nodded at Fang Chen, her heart filled with gratitude.
After Luo Liuli woke up, Fang Chen's acceptance of the inheritance was on the right track. At this moment, the golden heart in Fang Chen's body was beating rapidly. A wild aura was constantly drilling into Fang Chen's mind.
Fang Chen felt a large amount of information appear in his mind. That information was all about the tower's master's inheritance.
Fang Chen felt that his mind was like a vast ocean, filled with seawater.
Time passed by slowly. The aura around Fang Chen's body continued to increase. One day later, Fang Chen's aura reached a critical point. At this time, Fang Chen had already accepted the inheritance.
Boom
A loud sound came from Fang Chen's body. In an instant, Fang Chen's Qi Sea began to expand rapidly. Following that, Fang Chen's cultivation reached the middle stage of the sixth level of the Qi Hai realm.
Of course, this was not the end. When Fang Chen's cultivation reached the middle stage of the sixth level of the Qi Hai realm, it continued to increase and break through.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Chen's cultivation reached the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm.
After reaching the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm, Fang Chen's aura began to stabilize. At this time, the aura around Fang Chen's body disappeared. It was as if he was an ordinary person, quietly sitting there with his legs crossed.
"He is now in a deep state of cultivation. I think he will be in this state for a long time."
Seeing Fang Chen's current state, the Tower Spirit finally let out a sigh of relief and said to Luo Liuli.
Luo Liuli blinked her beautiful eyes and said: "He saved my life. Then I will guard him here and wait for him to wake up."
After that, Luo Liuli sat cross-legged beside Fang Chen and closed her eyes.
While Fang Chen was accepting the inheritance, many warriors in the Floating Tower were frantically searching for the inheritance. They did not know that the inheritance had already been obtained by Fang Chen and was in the process of accepting it.
At the same time, Protector Wu Xuan and Tie Yun were also hiding in the dark. They were waiting for the Floating Tower to open again. Once the Floating Tower opened again, they could leave safely.
As long as they could leave the Floating Tower safely, Protector Wu Xuan's cultivation would be completely restored. The entire Jin Guan Country would be under his control.
Thinking of this, Protector Wu Xuan's heart was filled with excitement.
Time passed bit by bit.
One day, two days, three days, half a month, one month, two months.
Finally, when the Divine Illusion Space was about to close, Fang Chen successfully accepted the inheritance.
In these two months, Fang Chen's cultivation did not break through again. He remained at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm. For him, these two months were to strengthen his foundation.
In the early stages of accepting the inheritance, his cultivation had increased by leaps and bounds, causing his foundation to be unstable. Therefore, in these two months, he was strengthening his foundation.
And because of these two months of strengthening, his foundation had become even more solid. The current him even had a change in his aura.
It was as if every movement of his could affect the surrounding air.
Fang Chen slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Luo Liuli's beautiful face. Seeing that Fang Chen had woken up, Luo Liuli's beautiful face revealed a trace of a smile.
"You're awake?" Luo Liuli asked.
Fang Chen nodded and then cupped his hands towards Luo Liuli. He did not need to think to know that Luo Liuli had been protecting him during this period of time.
"Kid, you've finally finished accepting the inheritance." The Tower Spirit suddenly appeared with a face full of joy.
"Senior." Fang Chen cupped his hands and thanked the Tower Spirit.
"Since you've finished accepting the inheritance, then I need you to do something for me."
