Unfortunately, after the giant fox died, its fiery red fur was no longer as bright as before. Its color had turned dark red like blood, and it wasn't as glossy as before.
Yang Tian had originally planned to skin the giant fox after killing it so that he could use its skin to make clothes in the future. However, after seeing the current situation, Yang Tian lost interest.
With the storage bracelet, Yang Tian was no longer afraid of having too many good things and not being able to store them all. The backpack he had previously used had already been stored in the storage bracelet.
Next up was the third floor of the underground palace.
Even Qu Yan Gu Ying, who had been here before, didn't know how many checkpoints there were in this underground palace. The only thing they could do now was to go through them one by one until they saw the final teleportation array disk.
Qu Yan Gu Ying was already full of confidence in Yang Tian since he had been able to pass two checkpoints in a row without much difficulty.
The entrance to the third checkpoint had already been opened.
This time, the entrance wasn't on the ground, but on the side of the stone room.
After the giant fox died, the entrance had already been opened.
Yang Tian, Qu Yan Gu Ying, and Qu Yan Gu Ying entered the entrance one after the other.
What appeared in front of them was the same winding stone steps that led downwards.
Just like before, after Yang Tian and Qu Yan Gu Ying entered the passageway, the entrance they had come from automatically closed after walking for a short while.
There were no traps on the stone steps. Yang Tian and Qu Yan Gu Ying stepped on the stone steps and smoothly reached the third checkpoint.
The third checkpoint was also a stone room.
This time, what awaited Yang Tian and Qu Yan Gu Ying wasn't a mutated beast, but a muscular man in black armor.
No, it couldn't be called a man. It was similar to the three-meter-tall black armored man from before. It was a monster that was controlled by an intelligent system.
No matter how precise a machine was, it couldn't reach the speed of a powerhouse in the universe.
This was because it was limited by its body size, and it didn't have enough energy. On the other hand, a human's cells could grow infinitely stronger. Also, the machine was limited by the materials it was made of …
This black armored man was muscular. After removing the armor on his body and measuring his height, he was about two meters tall. He was even taller than Yang Tian.
The weapon used by the black armored man was a long, curved saber. It was like a sword, and there were edges on both sides of the saber.
When Yang Tian's group arrived, the black-armored man was quietly standing in a stone room about 30 meters in length, width, and height. Behind him was an entrance to the ground.
What was different from the other stone chambers was that this stone chamber was filled with human skeletons. It was unknown if all the dead people had died under the black armored man's blade …
"Go … back …" The black armored man did not move. Just as Yang Tian was about to make a move, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Yang Tian's group as he said those two words, "Go … back …"
Go back?
How was this possible?
"Kill …" After slowly uttering these two words, he saw that Yang Tian and the others didn't return. Thus, he spat out another word filled with killing intent. "Kill …"
Yang Tian had just advanced to the next realm and needed someone to practice on.
This black armored man was perfect for the job.
Ever since entering this underground palace, Yang Tian's group had encountered obstacles that were harder than the previous one.
If there were many people at the first obstacle, they could pass it.
As long as they had the strength of a Star King, they could also pass the second obstacle smoothly.
Now, they probably needed the strength of a Star King.
Every obstacle in the underground palace was definitely harder than the previous one. It was impossible for the exiles or their descendants to pass through here easily.
This time, Yang Tian was prepared to use his mental power!
He wanted to see how much combat power he could unleash if he combined his mental power and the power of the Dragon Ball.
"Buzz …"
Yang Tian raised the red saber named "Fifteen". Under the infusion of the power of the Dragon Ball, the saber made a trembling sound.
Fortunately, Yang Tian had obtained this strange saber. If it was the saber made of YT elemental alloy from before, with Yang Tian's current realm, the saber would be destroyed immediately if he used it like this.
…
On the purple planet.
On the high mountain peak, the fierce cold wind had never stopped. In the wind, there were still monotonous cracking sounds.
Suddenly, the bald old man sitting cross-legged at the entrance of the temple said indifferently, "We can't trap him anymore."
The Immeasurable Starlord had returned to the temple and was enjoying the delicacies made by his two subordinates in the warm environment.
From this, it could be seen that his two subordinates were definitely not the strongest among his many subordinates, but they were definitely the best at cooking.
Hearing the bald old man talking to himself outside, the Immeasurable Starlord laughed and said, "How can my daughter's taste be compared to that of an ordinary person? I've already expected this. Otherwise, why would I wait for him here?"
The bald old man said, "What I didn't expect was that during this process, he would actually possess powerful mental power. That underground palace can no longer trap him. Next, it's up to the six guards of the temple."
The six guards of the temple?
When the Immeasurable Starlord heard this, he frowned and said, "The temple guards of the temple have all been sent to the Death Starfield?"
The bald old man said, "Originally, there was no need for the six guards, but he cleared the level too quickly. According to the rules, this is the only way.
The six guards I'm talking about aren't humans. If he can defeat the six guards, the benefits he'll obtain will be so great that even you, the Immeasurable Starlord, can't imagine it. "
"If they're not humans, then they're exotic beasts?" The Immeasurable Starlord smiled and said, "This is also prepared by your missing goddess, right?"
After the Immeasurable Starlord finished speaking, the bald old man curled his lips and didn't say anything else.
…
Looking at the black-armored man in front of him, Yang Tian narrowed his eyes slightly.
Powerful mental power instantly erupted from Yang Tian's spiritual world. A large number of azure dragons transformed from mental power rushed out of his spiritual world and entangled the black-armored man.
"Bzzt bzzt bzzt …"
The black-armored man, who was entangled by Yang Tian's mental power, suddenly emitted dense electric arcs and black smoke, making sizzling sounds.
During this process, Yang Tian sensed the black-armored man's immense power and felt that the black-armored man could break free of his mental power's restraint at any time.
This was the first time Yang Tian used his mental power to trap something that could move. He didn't expect that his mental power also carried the attributes of dragon flames and lightning.
At this moment, Yang Tian didn't have time to care about this. When the black-armored man was trapped by his mental power, his figure flashed and appeared in front of him. The red saber in his hand swept across the black-armored man's neck.
"Crack ~"
Yang Tian's saber slashed through the armor on the black-armored man's neck, and the blade passed through the man's neck.
When Yang Tian stopped, the black-armored man's head tilted, and the head wrapped in the helmet fell to the ground.
Then, there was a "bang", and the black-armored man's headless corpse fell to the ground.
This black-armored man was the same as the previous one — he was actually lifeless. After losing his head, thick, transparent liquid flowed out of his neck.
Even Yang Tian didn't expect that the combination of his mental power and the Dragon Ball's power would produce such a powerful combat power.
This was equivalent to using the power of two people against one person.
Moreover, it wasn't as simple as one plus one.
This was because no matter how good the cooperation between two people was, it was impossible to reach such a perfect state.
If Yang Tian had been a step later, the black-armored man would have been able to break free of his mental power's restraint. Yang Tian's actions were not the slightest bit slower.
