Chapter 120: Jiaozi's Choice

  This was the eighth day that many had entered the Tower of Heaven's battlefield, yet only nine cultivators remained on the battlefield, and one of them was clearly unable to hold on any longer.

  It turned out that after the cultivators of Tian Xuan Sect entered the sect, fourteen disciples from various schools rushed into the sect. They also faced three large gates, one larger than the other.

  A young cultivator who has just emerged from his humble abode, the pride of his sect, stands before the three great gates. Every cultivator would think that the higher and larger the gate, the more precious the treasures inside. Which gate to enter? Is there even a need to ask?

  Nature is entering from the right side of that largest door! Twelve out of fourteen proud sons made this choice.

  Pushed the door and found it couldn't be pushed open, then used brute force to attack, the door opened, and the arrogant ones were drawn into the battlefield.

  A gigantic arena, crystal clear and transparent, with a pale blue light screen above. The atmosphere was thick with an otherworldly energy. Before they could even react in awe, a cold voice rang out, informing them of their task as challengers and the final reward.

  Learning that there was indeed a reward, they all opened their mouths to ask about the details of the reward, but that cold voice did not respond at all.

  Inquiring about challenge details, but only hearing a cold voice repeat the previous task, and no longer responding to further questions.

  "The challenge begins!" A cold female voice announced the start of their tragic fate.

  The first scene features a late-stage Qi-refining enemy, lasting around one minute to five or six breaths, and the proud ones will shatter the enemy into a rain of light.

  However, the proud sons had a bad premonition, for the enemy's strength was stronger than that of an ordinary late-stage Qi-refining cultivator.

  The second scene features an enemy with a full Ki gauge, of moderate difficulty, who is defeated after two minutes.

  The proud ones started to feel suffocated. This is far from the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, it's clearly only at the beginning stage of Foundation Building with ordinary strength!

  The third round brought two powerful enemies, perfectly coordinated, who suppressed the proud son at first. Fortunately, the proud son was indeed the proud son, how could he not have some trump cards? The proud son played a few trump cards and struck the two white-clothed women into fragments of light.

  Most of the proud sons are clever people, standing in the light rain, trying their best to absorb the light rain, but failing. Only when they turn their minds, a few sparse light points are absorbed into the body, but they also can't detect any special effects of this substance.

  At this moment, the proud sons are worried, the enemy's cultivation is getting higher and higher, the number of people is increasing, but their strength cannot be improved in a short period of time. How to proceed with the remaining thirty or so battles?

  Taking the Therapeutic Injury Pill, he regulated his breath to heal his injuries; he took out the Supplementing Spirit Pill to replenish his spiritual energy; and swallowed the Gathering Spirit Pill to enhance his cultivation. Time passed quickly, and Jiaozi got up to respond to battle.

  After killing the fourth batch of enemies with great difficulty, Jiaozi was worried and anxious; after killing the fifth, sixth and ninth batches of enemies, Jiaozi had almost exhausted all his tricks and was severely injured. His spiritual power was almost depleted.

  When he was calculating and thinking of a countermeasure, preparing to fight against the nine enemies who had achieved great perfection in their cultivation, he found that an enemy at the initial stage of foundation establishment appeared in the center of the battlefield, which made Jiaozi feel panicked and desperate.

  But it's just the tenth game, why did the enemy appear in the early stages of building the foundation? The strength is comparable to that of the current mid-term foundation-building enemy. Even if he is confident and arrogant again, he can only kill one or two ordinary mid-term foundation-building cultivators in the current cultivation world by crossing the ranks. By analogy, he can at most kill one or two early-stage foundation-building ancient cultivators.

  There are still 27 battles left, what kind of enemy will appear in the last battle and how many enemies will there be? Based on speculation, the best case scenario is that 26 enemies will appear in the last battle. The cultivation base is at the early stage of foundation building.

  Twenty-six foundation-building ancient cultivators are equivalent to twenty-six mid-term foundation-building cultivators in today's cultivation world! How can such a battle be fought, how can such an enemy be killed?

  The proud sons are on the verge of collapse, and the enemy of the tenth round has already killed to the front, some people are dazed. Instantly killed; Some hastily counterattacked, fought hundreds of rounds, blood splattered on the battlefield, finally killing the enemy.

  The proud sons of the living, without even bothering to treat their wounds, shouted loudly on the battlefield, demanding to leave the Tower of Heaven, but received no response; they cursed and swore loudly, yet saw no change on the battlefield.

  On the empty and desolate battlefield, only one's own voice can be heard, with no other sounds present. Fear has dyed the arrogant one's eyes red, despair has gripped the arrogant one's heart tightly. They are suffering, they are suffocating, they are almost driven mad.

  Like a trapped beast, the crazy attack on the war platform and light shield, hoping to create an opening to escape from this cage, but the war platform is still crystal clear, and the light shield remains undisturbed.

  Spiritual power was squandered, energy gradually consumed, the proud son who had exhausted his spirit and strength lay on the battlefield, his emotions slowly calming down.

  After calming down, Jiaozi started taking various pills and elixirs to enhance his cultivation, but no matter how good the pills were, without time to absorb them, they would be useless.

  In the following days, the proud son burst forth with unprecedented fighting power, but only managed to prolong a few battles, ultimately dying in all of them.

  Eight days ago, Zǐ Xī stepped into the mysterious door of 'Qì', entering a 100-square-meter enclosed space. Facing three doors, he entered the middle one without hesitation because Luò Yù had written a 'middle' character on his palm.

  Luoyu can be said to have been raised by him. Since Luoyu was born, Ziyun took care of her, then brought her to the clan school, and later brought her into the sect together, teaching her hand in hand how to live in the sect, how to fight against demons, and how to survive in the trial forest. The time spent between the brother and sister is longer than with their parents, and their feelings are extraordinary.

  So he trusted Luo Yu very much, and since she let him choose the middle door, she must have known something beforehand and was certain that he would not be able to survive in the right door, so she reminded him.

  Luoyu's reminder was very subtle, and he became more mature in his dealings, which made him feel relieved, and he could finally relax a bit.

  As for how the sister knew in advance that there would be three doors, and learned about the difficulty of each door, these are not important. What is important is that the informed sister must choose the most suitable door, smoothly gain the opportunity, and safely leave the Tower of Heaven.

  Attacked by the middle gate, Zi Ye was drawn into it and fell onto a giant battlefield. He also heard a cold female voice say something similar to what Luo Yu had heard, except that the 36 battles were changed to 27, the resurrection opportunity was changed from once to twice, and the reward was changed from Gongfa Jade Slip to Lianqi Technique Jade Slip.

  Zi Yun has always been a steady person, he first spent three days completing three battles, with the extra time, he kept studying his opponent's attacking techniques and combat methods, gaining inspiration from them to improve his own strength.

  Afterwards, he spent five days completing nine battles, at which point he found himself in a very precarious situation.
