Chapter 830
“You are disqualified from continuing the Assessment for leaving the barrier!” The Illusory Spirit said as Fan Hongde left the barrier. The barrier immediately disappeared as the loser was determined.
“Little Brother Yi, if it weren’t for you, I would’ve died by now!” Fan Hongde said as he looked at the ground under Suo Te’s feet. He would never be able to win against a Divine King as he himself was still at Saint King peak Stage! But he knew that if the Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower fell to the Evil Spirit Race hand, the three realms would fall along with it!
The Three Realms didn’t have any Divine King, so a Divine King from Evil Spirit Race was enough to make them fall on their knees! The gap between Divine King and Saint King was too big! In front of a Divine King, Saint King was like an ant that was not worth getting serious about! It would be impossible for a Saint King stage to kill a Divine King unless it was a sneak attack or other underhanded methods!
“Rest assured, I will deal with him myself!” Yi Tianyun said solemnly, but he himself was having a hard time withstanding a Divine King’s attack! In particular, Suo Te still didn’t use his full power as he didn’t want to completely obliterate Fan Hongde! In this case, Heaven Swallowing Divine Treasure was enough to withstand his attack, but if he went all out, Heaven Swallowing Divine Treasure wouldn’t be enough!
Demon God Suo Te began to roar as he was furious that he was being thrown aside by Fan Hongde. He then walked towards Fan Hongde, but Fan Hongde wasn’t afraid at all because if Suo Te attacked him, Suo Te would be immediately disqualified by the Illusory Spirit! Even though Suo Te was at the 2nd Layer Divine King stage, Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower itself was a powerful Divine Treasure that a Divine King couldn’t ignore!
“If you want to fight here, hit me first!” Yi Tianyun said indifferently.
“Shit! I didn’t expect you to lend him your Divine Treasure! Why aren’t you selfish and greedy like the rest of the humans?” Suo Te said as he tried to calm down.
“You’ve only met the trash that called themselves human so far, but don’t worry, only a small portion of people would behave that way!” Yi Tianyun said indifferently. Fan Hongde gave Heaven Swallowing Divine Treasure back to Yi Tianyun and smiled at him.
“Little Brother Yi, be careful. Although you are not a descendant of Ancient Netherworld Divine King, I hope that you will become the next Tower Lord!” Fan Hongde said with a smile on his face. When he was done talking, he was immediately teleported back to the 8th Layer City as he no longer had the right to be there. Now the only candidate to become a Tower Lord was down to 2 people, and thus Yi Tianyun began to wonder what test would the tower give next!
“Huh, you become a Tower Lord? Do you even know what the last test would be? Let me tell you one thing! The last level is to climb the tower to the top! You can interfere with each other during the process, so it is no different from fighting against each other! I will not let you take a step forward later!” Suo Te said coldly.
“Is this true?” Yi Tianyun asked the Illusory Spirit.
“Yes, the last test would be climbing the tower to the top! Your goal is reaching the 9th Layer City, and any type of obstruction is allowed on the way there. Whoever gets there first will attain the final victory!” the Illusory Spirit said with a smile on its face.
“The test is too simple! I can become the Tower Lord just by climbing to 9th Layer City?” Yi Tianyun said as he was confused about the test.
“You idiot! If it was just that simple, we would already become the Tower Lord from a long time ago! Even if you get there, without a sufficient Bloodline, there is nothing out there! Now, I know that your innate ability is good, but you will soon become my food, boy!” Suo Te said coldly.
“Let’s see if you can really live up to your words this time!” Yi Tianyun said tauntingly.
The Illusory Spirit reached out his hands to the sky, and a winding staircase appeared before Yi Tianyun and Suo Te. This staircase was no different from what Yi Tianyun saw before. It was the staircase that would lead them to the next layered city! No wonder Yi Tianyun didn’t see any staircase in 8th Layer City as it was here all along!
Yi Tianyun believed that it wouldn’t be as simple as Fan Hongde said earlier. To become a Tower Lord, one must have a pure Bloodline. Otherwise, what Suo Te said earlier would happen to him! But even so, Yi Tianyun knew that he was on the right track as he already had the special Flame Imprint on his head that no one had before him.
At the same time, the entire Ancient Netherworld Divine Tower shook, which made the cultivators within the tower stop everything they were doing and look around in confusion. A Phantom Shadow appears in the air on each floor, depicting the situation of Yi Tianyun and Suo Te.
“What is that creature? Why does it have 8 arms? It looks so disgusting!” a cultivator said as he didn’t know of the existence of Evil Spirit Race just yet. Many other cultivators beside him also said the same thing as they didn’t recognize the appearance of Evil Spirit Race!
“What did you just say? Apologize right now!” a cultivator said as he was part of the Evil Spirit Race.
“Apologize? Why do I have to do that? Are you also from the same race or something?” the previous cultivator said with a smirk on his face. Many cultivators started to discuss the appearance of the hideous creature they saw among themselves, ignoring the existence of the Evil Spirit Race cultivator that was around them. But still, they didn’t know about the existence of the Evil Spirit Race just yet.
Some of these cultivators did know about the Evil Spirit Race, but they didn’t say anything as they were afraid of what Evil Spirit Race would do! Meanwhile, the people on the higher floor knew about the existence of the Evil Spirit Race, and they were startled to see this phenomenon themselves!
“Big Brother Yi appeared on the air?” Fan Xuexuan said as she stopped and looked at the sky. 12 Golden Hairpins also stopped their hands as they reached out to 3rd Layer City to look at the sky. Their cold demeanour suddenly changed as they saw their master was fighting against the Evil Spirit Race somewhere else!
At the same time, Yi Tianyun looked around in confusion as he could see everything on each layer from there. “What is this? why can I see the outside from here?” Yi Tianyun said loudly.
“It is because you have the qualification to be the next Tower Lord. Everyone in the tower should bear witness to your success!” Illusory Spirit said reverently.
“Is it about the flame imprint that I got earlier?” Yi Tianyun asked as he pointed to the Flame Imprint on his Forehead.
“Yes, that is a sign that you pass the test that was given earlier. It would be the proof of your qualification to become the next Tower Lord!” The Illusory Spirit said with a smile on its face.
“But what about him?” Yi Tianyun said as he pointed towards Suo Te.
“He didn’t qualify as the Tower Lord!” Illusory Spirit said indifferently.
“But, why is he here with us?” Yi Tianyun asked curiously.
“Because he has strong cultivation! If he beats you, he won’t become the next Tower Lord, but you will also lose your qualification to become the Tower Lord! He will serve as the last wall between you and the Tower Lord seat!” Illusory Spirit explained his intention of letting Suo Te stay.
Yi Tianyun smirked as everything became clear now. Suo Te was here to get in his way from becoming the next Tower Lord, but it turns out the Illusory Spirit also let Suo Te disturb Yi Tianyun too! This was just too bizarre!
