Chapter 056: Going to the Next Level (2)

  This level was all densely packed with elves and monsters, some were like tree roots with a round eyeball sprouting from the root; some were flat and round, covered in folds; and others were like greyish-white fleas, jumping around. I operated my puppet demonic technique, and the two puppet watermen opened the way in front of me, criss-crossing the path, killing a pathway hard among the elves and monsters. I didn't stop moving my feet, turning my eyes up to the fourth floor.

  Before I could stand still, a hot wind hit my face, and a fierce tiger with a glowing red light pounced towards me. This tiger has wings on its back, spreading out a dozen feet wide, its wings are like two balls of fire, flowing with blazing flames. I sprayed a mouthful of samadhi true fire, the tiger opened its mouth and swallowed the true fire in return, as if it were a tonic.

  Moon Soul said: "This is the mount of a demon in the former Devil's Shakra Heaven, called the Flying Flame Tiger, after death the soul escaped from the Yellow Spring Heaven by a fluke. The Flying Flame Tiger is a monstrous beast of supreme yang, so its soul isn't afraid of the Samadhi Flame."

  "Day his grandmother, you didn't say so earlier!" I watched as the Flying Flame Tiger pounced up and flapped its wings, quickly vaporising the two water people. This guy's soul was so fiery after death, so you can imagine in life.

  Moon Soul leisurely said, "The Flying Flame Tiger's soul can also neutralise the yin nature of the Biju, the efficacy is better than the Red Training Grass, it depends on whether you can eat it or not."

  Such a big guy, how am I going to swallow it? As I was thinking of a way, the Flying Flame Tiger had already flown up in the air and pounced at me aggressively. I activated the Xuan Gui Secret Dao Technique, and my Qi Circle swung out layer by layer, wrapping around the Flying Flame Tiger's wings, and it immediately lost its balance and fell down. Not waiting for it to pounce again, the Xuan Gui Qi Circle trapped it heavily.

  At the same time, several hundred ghosts of monsters ferociously lunged at me, and while I fought with them, my mind quickly flashed through all the secret books I had learnt, thinking hard about the spell to devour the Flying Flame Tiger.

  "In the beginning of life, the spirit is in the form of a foetus in vain, the foetus is the source of essence, refining and eating the foetus, one can achieve longevity." Suddenly, I remembered a passage from the Fetalisation Eternal Life Demon Scripture. This demonic art is very evil, believing that the foetus nurtures the essence of life, and eating it is a great tonic. Therefore, the Fetal Transformation Eternal Life Demon Technique was able to re-refine the living being back into its foetal form and consume it again. It's just that this demonic art is very sinister to use, once the other party's power is stronger than one's own, then the person who casts the art will instead turn into a foetus. Staring at the Flying Flame Tiger, I thought in my mind that my own demonic power should always be stronger than the Flying Flame Tiger, so I might as well give it a try.

  "Cluck cluck cluck cluck ......" I activated the Fetal Transformation Eternal Life Demon Technique, my bones emitted a dense thunderous sound, and my body's qi and blood pumped frequently. "Hoo" sound, my palms slapped towards the Flying Flame Tiger, my palms became as white as jade, exuding a sinister lustre. When my palms landed on the top of the Flying Flame Tiger's head, it immediately roared miserably, its body convulsed, and its body shrank a little bit. In a short while, it shrunk into a tiny tiger foetus.

  I was relieved, it seems that the Fetalisation Eternal Life Demon Technique works on ghosts as well, grabbed the Flying Flame Tiger, according to the Fetalisation Eternal Life Demon Technique's edible method, lips aligned with the mouth of the tiger fetus, and gently sucked on it. Abruptly, the Flying Flame Tiger foetus turned into a stream of flame rushing into the throat, and the internal organs were immediately hot.

  Moon Soul called out, "Quickly serve the Biju!"

  I hurriedly pulled out the Biju and swallowed it in one gulp. My body was jolted, and the Biju transformed into a stream of eerie air that filled my body, fused with the flame flow, travelled along the meridians of my back, and rushed all the way to the door of my head. "With a click, my brain was dazed, and it was as if a small bone in my head had been broken by the stream of chi. Afterwards, the air current also disappeared without a trace. I was shocked, "What happened?"

  Moon Soul smiled faintly, "Congratulations on removing the mundane bone."

  I touched my head and found that there was no abnormality before I asked with confidence, "What are mundane bones?"

  Moon Soul said, "Regardless of human or demon, there is a mundane bone in the brain. When cultivating spells, once the qi and blood run near the mundane bone, it will be difficult to flow again. Therefore, the operation of any spells can only circulate in the internal organs and cannot pass through the brain. The Biju of the Xuan Turtle Red-eyed Beast is mainly spiritual and is able to melt the mundane bone so that the qi and blood can truly flow throughout the body. From now on, you will be able to cultivate all kinds of spells a hundred feet further, reaching a brand new realm that is completely different from that of your predecessors."

  I scratched my ears in joy, "You're really something, old me didn't love you for nothing."

  Moon Soul glared at me and said, "Phantom was born without vulgar bones."

  I froze for a moment and didn't ask any more questions, only feeling that the Qi and blood in my body was unusually smooth and comfortable. At this point, winning the lottery no longer meant much to me, but in order to make a name for myself and become one of the three winners, I still rushed up to the fifth floor of the Soul Suppressing Tower.

  "Duk Duk ......" Hundreds of white ghosts jumped and hopped, bouncing towards me, their sharp claws suffused with black gas, and at a glance, they knew they were poisonous. On the ground lay the corpses of several contestants, all bloodied. I executed the Weapon Armour Royal Art, my left arm transforming into a steel blade, sweeping and slashing across, cutting the ghosts in half. Without waiting for their limbs to reintegrate, I had already rushed out of the encirclement and made my way up to the sixth floor with a forceful momentum.

This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

  A group of short and small ghosts lunged at me, their tongues sticking out and spitting at me. The spittle was colourful, sticky and thick, emitting a pungent smell. I turned my arms into shields to block the spittle, and my body scurried and leapt to the seventh floor.

  The surroundings were empty, not a single evil spirit in sight, but dozens of corpses lay on the ground. I carefully scanned round before sweeping towards the stairs. Just as I stepped on the first step, a sharp wind whistled behind me, and seven sharp auras shot straight at me.

  My heart was in a state of shock, I couldn't cast any spells in time, I could only jump out of the Phantom Dance, my body moving deftly in the air, before I could avoid it. Back to use the mirror pupil secret Taoist art to look again, only to find seven ghosts sitting quietly in the corner, they are almost transparent, if not for the mirror pupil secret Taoist art, I simply can not see them. The seven ghosts looked like seven people joined together, each ghost's right arm and another ghost's left arm were linked together, and their mouths were thin and long, like a spike. Aimed at me, the seven ghosts' pointed mouths shot out sharp spikes once again.

  I operated the Mirror Pupil Secret Dao Technique, my eyes as clear as mirrors, bouncing the sharp spikes back, and rushed towards the eighth floor immediately afterwards. After fighting with the evil spirits for so long, the seventh floor was the most dangerous, in retrospect, after removing the mundane bones, my Phantom Dance was much more fluid than in the past, so I avoided the seven spikes' surprise attack with ease.

  On the eighth level, a dark and heavy fog was shrouded. The black mist was flashing with blue light and sword qi, I saw Liu Cui Yu at a glance, his eyebrows were shooting out sword awns, chopping dozens of elves and monsters apart at the same time. To be honest, his power far exceeded mine, but I was superior in that I was well versed in all sorts of spells. Seeing me, Liu Cui Yu's face was very ugly, I smiled cheekily, "I heard that you kid is very crazy, how dare you drive our Weaponry Armour Royalty Sect out of Luosheng Heaven."

  Liu Cui Yu snorted coldly, the sword qi between his eyebrows swirled back, cutting off several ghosts that were approaching from behind, saying, "Your Excellency is not a member of the Weaponry Armour Sect at all, why are you pretending to be a god?"

  I arrogantly said, "Old me says yes. Listen carefully, I'm now telling your Eyebrow Sect to get the hell out of Lusheng Heaven, or else I'll come to your door and kill your arses!"

  Liu Cui Yu's face was a shade of red and a shade of white, she wanted to fight, but couldn't beat me, her turquoise-coloured sword awns angrily decapitated a huge monster, and rushed up to the top of the ninth floor of the tower without looking back.

  I then followed, this layer was the easiest to break through, Liu Cui Yu all but laid out the evil spirits for me. On the ninth floor, there is not a single evil spirit, the water waves flow around, flashing with strange coloured light. Three sides of the tower wall engraved with dense incantations, in the three tower corners embedded niches, respectively, a pair of thin as cicada wings, a fire-red grass, and a rounded grain of insect eggs. I know that this is the three pieces of lottery, Liu Cui Yu grabbed the first to the white bone insect eggs, I have no interest in that thing, so I took the fire locust wings. Translucent fire locust wings into the hand warm, only the size of a finger, dark born reddish-red beautiful lines, very lovely. I think it can be sold for a thousand taels of silver, but not for nothing.

  A few moments later, a gnome with a pockmarked face rushed up, seeing Liu Cui Yu and I, he smiled grimly, "Fortunately, I squeezed into the top three." Carefully cupping the Red Reinforcement Grass, he placed it in his arms.

  On the east side of the top of the tower, there was a small iron door, Liu Cui Yu and the gnome pushed the door open one after another and left in a hurry. I went over to take a look, it turned out that this door led directly to the outside of the tower, but could only be pushed open from inside the tower. I laughed, "If I had known that the jackpot was at this location at the top of the tower, I would have cast the Chaos Armour Royal Art and taken the jackpot directly without having to go through so much trouble fighting with the evil spirits and ghosts."

  Moon Soul hummed, "How can it be that easy? The Soul Suppressing Tower is made of ten thousand year old basalt iron, and the top of the tower is even covered with a boundary of runes, so with your attainments in the Chaotic Armour Royal Art, you are simply incapable of passing through the ten thousand year old basalt iron and the boundary. Take a look, which evil spirit can get to the top of the tower?"

  Curiously surveying the surrounding runes, I asked, "Are these runes also carved by Charm?"

  Moon Soul nodded, "Look carefully."

  I suddenly shouted, "The shape of these runes kind of looks like Phantom Dance's posture!"

  Moon Soul smiled mysteriously, "Phantom Dance, it's far more magical than you can imagine. Let's go, maybe you'll dance the real Phantom Dance in the future."

  "Whoosh ......" A few human demons quickly scurried up to the top of the tower, swept their eyes, and exclaimed in disappointment, "Oh no, they've all been taken."

  A burly man glanced at the Fire Locust Wings in my hand and revealed a greedy gaze as he slowly walked towards me. Want to snatch it? I laughed out loud and performed the Charming Dance, floating up in a dashing manner and flinging my sleeves, knocking him out. With a straightening of my waist, my person has rushed out of the tower door and floated towards the river.

  The blue waves flowed, the howls of the evil spirits of the Soul Suppressing Tower gradually faded away, and a thought turned in my mind, the real Phantom Dance, what should it be like?
