The Ku family had contacted Lu Yin after the Extreme Events had appeared on the ninth floor of the fifth tower, but their tone had been unpleasant.
Back then, Lu Yin had told the Ku family that he did not know how to pass on the Extreme Events. How long had it been since then, and now he had placed the Extreme Events on the fifth tower?
Lu Yin's answer was simple. The Extreme Events on the ninth floor was not true, and it was just a promise. He did not have a way to pass on the Extreme Events, but he could in the future. Currently, no one could reach the ninth floor, but if someone did, they would receive Lu Yin's promise that he would pass on the Extreme Events.
This was Ku Lei's true goal; he wanted to enter the ninth floor and obtain Lu Yin's promise. When Lu Yin passed on the Extreme Events, the Ku family would be the first to obtain the Extreme Events.
Ku Lei was the first to reach the foundation, and he walked step by step towards the entrance of the fifth tower. There was a giant statue in front of the fifth tower; it was Lu Yin. On another floor, there was a small giant sitting cross-legged; it was Brute Force.
Brute Force had joined the Great Eastern Alliance from the Sixth Mainland, so Lu Yin could not be completely at ease. It was best to place him in the fifth tower as a guard.
Lu Yin was not afraid of Brute Force stealing the fifth tower's inheritance, as the true guardian of the fifth tower was Half-Progenitor Drunkard. Aside from him, there was also Willow Flower secretly guarding the fifth tower.
Ku Lei glanced at Lu Yin's statue and did not show any respect as he walked straight into the fifth tower.
Xing Kai then leaped out and entered the fifth tower.
After that, one famous cultivator after another entered the fifth tower, including Yuhua Mavis and a few others whose names could not be identified. They were clearly older cultivators.
When a middle-aged man reached the foundation, Brute Force opened his eyes. "Do you know the rules?"
The man looked at him. "Yes."
"Target."
The man did not hesitate. "Golden battle force cultivation notes." He then walked into the fifth tower.
Behind him, several cultivators reached the foundation, and one of them was shocked. "Isn't that Senior Guan?"
"Who?" Another cultivator was confused.
The cultivator replied, "He's an Emissary powerhouse from the Neoverse, Senior Guan. He was invited by the Hall of Honor several times as a wandering cultivator, but he refused to join."
"I remember now. He's one of the few wandering cultivators who can become an Emissary. I heard that he refused to join the Hall of Honor because he wanted to maintain his status as a wandering cultivator..
"Yes, that's him."
"I wouldn't have thought that Master Guan would come. What do you want? The fifth tower is different for each level of cultivation. The requirements for envoys are very strict. One of the requirements is that you can't compete with other envoys. Another requirement is that you have to explain what you want before you enter the fifth tower. Even if you get the rest, you have to give it up. And even if you get the inheritance you want, it has to be valuable."
"That's right. The fifth pagoda is indeed harsh for Emissaries, but that's normal. Emissaries are already considered experts in the Fifth Mainland, so it's too much to ask them to enter the fifth pagoda to fight for the inheritance. Who can compete against an Emissary? I just don't know what Senior Guan wants."
"It should be golden battle Qi. It's said that the reason why Master Guan became an Emissary was because he cultivated battle Qi. As an independent cultivator, he didn't have any powerful battle skills, so he could only rely on battle Qi."
"That's right. I've never seen golden battle force before. I never thought that there would be golden battle force above nine-lined battle force. Let's go in quickly. The first level of the tower already has battle force insights.
There must be an introduction. "
"Alright, let's go in quickly."
The fifth pagoda did not have an age restriction. Since it was said to increase the power of all human cultivators, there was no age restriction. However, there were restrictions on cultivation levels and the number of times one could enter. These rules had been set by Wang Wen, and anyone who violated them would be punished with brute force.
The fifth pagoda was not a place that just anyone could casually enter. Furthermore, it could be entered an unlimited number of times. This was especially true for Emissaries, as the restrictions were especially severe.
Lu Yin was not afraid that those who had obtained the inheritance would publicize it. First of all, the inheritance obtained from the fifth pagoda was recorded in jade, and there were no words. Second of all, humans were selfish. Who would be willing to publicize the inheritance that they had painstakingly obtained from the fifth pagoda?
Outside the abyss, a screen rose up, and the scene within the fifth pagoda was displayed.
The fifth pagoda was being monitored from all angles. Although it did not forbid death and slaughter, it also prohibited the formation of factions. Lu Yin had established the fifth pagoda for himself and the Great Eastern Alliance, not for the sake of helping others.
If the heirs of the Seven Courts teamed up, who would be able to defeat them?
The Emissaries also had to be monitored, but the Emissaries would not arrive so early.
Eh?
There's an Emissary?
Lu Yin was astonished, as Emissaries had actually entered so early. He looked at one of the scenes on the screen and saw a middle-aged man. Did this person require golden battle force?
Actually, the cultivation of battle force depended on whether or not one's heart could break through a certain limit. The Fifth Mainland could cultivate battle force as well, but because there was a lack of common knowledge on how to surpass nine-lined battle force, even some powerhouses with strong willpower could not take that final step. They did not know what was possible or how to break through.
Lu Yin had only broken through because he was standing at the peak of his peers and could not control himself. How many people in history had been able to achieve such a feat?
This middle-aged man should have reached nine-lined battle force long ago, which was why he wanted to obtain the cultivation method for golden battle force.
Actually, he only needed to obtain the first level's battle force cultivation experience. The first level's battle force cultivation experience introduced the Warring States Period, and the first level had a lot of information about the Eternals, the Fifth Mainland, and the Sixth Mainland. Just as Lu Yin had said before opening the pagoda, these cultivators would understand why they needed to increase the overall power of the human race.
The golden battle force cultivation experience was on the fifth level, and with an Emissary's strength, it was reasonable to say that they could reach it. However, whether or not they could reach the next level of the fifth pagoda depended on both strength and luck.
If a normal cultivator wanted to reach the next level, they would either have to find a stairway that randomly appeared or rely on their own strength. There were barriers between each level, and if one was not strong enough, they would not be able to reach the next level. But if one was strong enough, they might not be able to reach the next level due to other reasons.
Just as Lu Yin was thinking about this, Ku Lei encountered another scene on the screen.
This unlucky child was the first to enter the fifth pagoda, and he was also the first to break through the barriers between the first and second levels with his own strength. He was about to break through the second barrier and enter the third level when someone could not stand by and watch.
Just as Ku Lei was about to break through the barriers between the second and third levels, his body suddenly froze, and the void froze. This was Ku Lei's innate gift, and Lu Yin had suffered from it before. Now, it was Ku Lei's turn.
Ku Lei looked down and saw a sword qi inexplicably appear below him. It was extremely sharp and fast, and its power surpassed that of an Enlighter's.
Ku Lei's eyes trembled, and lightning flashed as he shattered the sword qi.
In front of him, a figure tore through the void and sent a palm strike at him.
The figure's appearance could not be seen, and all that could be seen was a set of universal armor.
Ku Lei's void froze, but it could not trap Ku Lei.
The palm strike struck out with a finger, using the Ku family's battle technique — Finger Tap.
Not only did Finger Tap possess a terrifying destructive power, but it also caused people to not want to fight.
There was a thump, and the figure was struck down by Ku Lei. Ku Lei gasped in surprise, as his attack had not broken through the universal armor?
With his strength, any casual attack from him had the power of an Enlighter, so the armor's defense was quite good.
Underground, Ku Lei exhaled and looked up in shock. How could this person be so powerful?
Although he knew that this person was the first to reach the Foundational Realm, which meant that this person was definitely an expert, he was still too young, and Ku Lei had not paid much attention to him. Now, he had suffered a loss.
"Interesting." Ku Lei's figure flickered, leaving behind only thunder and lightning as he landed on the ground. He faced Ku Lei and reached out to grab him. "Let me see who you are."
Ku Lei raised a hand, and a Money Bomb appeared in his palm as he released it at Ku Lei.
Ku Lei casually slapped out, but the Money Bomb only had the power of an Enlighter with a power level of 200,000, so it was not a threat to him. "You have quite a few things."
At this moment, several streaks of sword qi swept over from the distance and shot towards Ku Lei.
Ku Lei frowned and sent Ku Lei flying with a kick. He then raised a hand and caused thunder to explode, tearing the sword qi apart. He then casually waved his hand, causing a strong gale to distort the void. It was all Enlighter sword qi. Where had so many sword-wielding Enlighters come from?
Five cultivators wearing universal armors appeared in front of Ku Lei.
When Ku Lei tore apart the sword qi, the five cultivators simultaneously raised their hands, each holding a Money Bomb, and shot it at Ku Lei.
Ku Lei did not care about the power of an Enlighter with a power level of 200,000, but he was more concerned about these cultivators, as they were all just Explorers. How could mere Explorers possess external objects with the power of an Enlighter and even release sword qi with the power of an Enlighter?
There was something strange about this.
"I'd like to see who you people are." Ku Lei opened his hand, and lightning flashed. Five streaks of lightning pierced through the void and viciously struck the five cultivators.
Ku Lei's universal armor immediately cracked. Back in the Mountain and Sea Realm's Star Tower Battle, he had been able to match the power of the Ten Arbiters and defeat ordinary Enlighters. Now that so much time had passed, he was able to fight against an Enlighter with a power level of 400,000.
How could these universal armors withstand his attacks?
Ku Lei leaped towards the five cultivators. In front of him, the five cultivators raised their arms and five beams of Sword Qi appeared out of nowhere.
Ku Lei's pupils shrank. How was this possible?
How could they release sword qi from their arms?
What the hell?
Mere Explorers were nothing more than ants in his eyes. Now, not only had their universal armor withstood his attacks, but it had even been able to counterattack. This had completely overturned his common sense.
There was something wrong with the universal armor.
Ku Lei barked, "Stay!" His body was wrapped in lightning as he smashed through the sword qi and grabbed at the five cultivators.
This was a powerhouse from the Neoverse. They were already quite strong, but they were still not a match for him.
In the distance, flames filled the sky as an undying bird chirped. Serati Phoenix appeared and waved his flames to clash with the lightning, forcing Ku Lei back.
Ku Lei stared at the youth who had appeared in front of him. "Serati Phoenix?
The former Ten Arbiters? What do you mean? "
Serati Phoenix smiled. "I'm a member of the fifth pagoda's assessment." As a member of the Phoenix family, his entire family had joined the Great Eastern Alliance, so it was normal for Serati Phoenix to be recruited by Wang Wen to join the fifth pagoda's assessment. He was not the only one, as many people within the Great Eastern Alliance had been invited to join the assessment.
