Dragon Blood Saint Emperor
Chapter 102: Strange Tower Spirits
Charge!
The disciples of the three families had long been ready to go. The moment the main gate opened, they charged through.
The Ouyang Family was led by Ouyang Hao.
The Luo Family was led by Luo Tianfeng.
The Ye Family was led by Ye Cheng.
As for Ye Wushuang, Ye Rou, and Ye Dong, they followed closely behind the main group and rushed into the Void Saber Tower.
The instant they stepped inside, the scene shifted, and the three of them appeared in a vast, empty space.
This was the interior of the Void Saber Tower.
Spirit Communication Treasures possessed profound abilities, and having a vast internal space was one of them. Ye Wushuang was well aware of this. His Evil Moon Thunder Order also contained an internal space, one filled with Thunder Power.
"Watch out, there are Tower Spirits!"
The moment they entered the first floor, Ye Rou shouted a warning as a horde of bizarre creatures swarmed them from all directions.
These creatures were shaped like lions, but they were hairless and emaciated, with their skin stretched taut over their bodies. You could clearly see their protruding bones, making for a particularly ghastly sight!
A cavernous, bloody maw took up half of their faces, from which two fangs, like the Grim Reaper’s scythes, glinted with a cold, sinister light!
Even more peculiar, they all had two pairs of blood-red eyes, filled with the aura of slaughter and death!
ROAR!
Ear-piercing shrieks constantly erupted from their mouths, and a savage, crimson light shone from their four eyes!
"What are these monsters?"
Ye Wushuang was astonished. He swept the area with his Divine Sense and found that there was a huge number of them—a dense, teeming mass. Ye Cheng and the others were already surrounded.
Fortunately, these monsters were only at the First and Second Layers of the Qi Vortex realm!
Ye Rou explained, "These are monsters born from the Earth Power absorbed by the Void Saber Tower. Their numbers increase every three years, and the level of monsters on each floor is different. It’s all designed to test the participants."
"Absorbing Earth Power?"
Ye Wushuang was shocked. ’The methods of a Yin Yang Realm expert are too terrifying! To think they can absorb Earth Power!’
"Sister, what if our Ye Family took control of this Void Saber Tower and turned it into a training ground for our disciples? Wouldn’t that greatly increase the family’s strength?"
As his thoughts raced, Ye Wushuang suddenly latched onto a key idea. The Void Saber Tower was simply too miraculous; it was the perfect trial ground.
Suddenly, Ye Rou’s and Ye Dong’s eyes lit up, and they both turned to look at Ye Wushuang.
Both of them understood what Ye Wushuang meant. The Void Saber Tower produced Tower Spirits every three years, and these spirits were distributed across the floors according to their strength. If the Ye Family controlled the Void Saber Tower, their disciples could challenge the floors corresponding to their own levels, enhancing their strength and tempering their Dao Hearts through Cultivation.
In the long run, how could the Ye Family not rise to prominence!
However, as if remembering something, the light in their eyes quickly dimmed.
Ye Wushuang noticed the change and asked curiously, "What is it?"
"Brother Wushuang, you might not know this, but to control the Void Saber Tower, you have to reach the ninth floor and take over its control center. But the ninth floor is filled with a terrifying killing intent. No one dares to go up there," Ye Dong replied.
"The ninth floor?"
Ye Wushuang’s brow furrowed. His father, Ye Xuan, had also mentioned a terrifying killing intent.
’This ninth floor is so mysterious!’
While he was pondering, Ye Wushuang sensed the Tower Spirits launching their attack. He immediately shouted, "Let’s put this aside for now! We need to deal with these Tower Spirits and get to the second floor."
ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!
While the three of them were talking, the members of the other families had already started cutting down the Tower Spirits in their path and rushing toward the second floor.
On the first floor, the Tower Spirits weren’t powerful, but they were numerous. A moment’s carelessness could still get you killed. Therefore, none of the groups attacked each other, instead focusing on heading for the second floor.
As the other parties made their move, the Tower Spirits near Ye Wushuang and his group also launched their attack!
SWISH SWISH SWISH!
Beams of blood-red light shot out from their four bloody eyes like lasers, piercing through the air with power that could not be underestimated!
"Thunder Sword!"
A cold light flashed in Ye Wushuang’s eyes. He drew his Ancient Sword, which was wreathed in countless phantoms of lightning-fast sword strikes, and slashed forward.
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
Every time a lightning sword phantom collided with one of the blood-red beams, a deafening explosion erupted. Meanwhile, Ye Rou and Ye Dong covered Ye Wushuang’s two blind spots behind him, constantly blocking the incoming beams.
"Find the passageway!" Ye Wushuang shouted to the other two. They formed a triangular formation and began moving swiftly through the first floor’s space.
ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!
The Tower Spirits roared furiously. As if aware that their mission was to stop these people from reaching the second floor, they surged forward, treading on the void and wreathed in blood-red power as they charged at the trio.
Back off!
Ye Rou let out a sharp cry. Holding an exquisite longbow, she rapidly plucked the bowstring. A series of blue arrows materialized, frantically absorbing her True Qi and the surrounding Essence Qi.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Streaks of blue light, like azure stars streaking across the void, shot toward the Tower Spirits.
THWACK!
THWACK!
Ye Rou’s archery was incredibly precise; every arrow struck a Tower Spirit.
"Ye Dong, we’ll hold off the Tower Spirits! You find the entrance!"
After blasting away a few Tower Spirits, Ye Dong heard Ye Wushuang’s voice. He didn’t hesitate, retracting his attack and continuously scanning the area with his Divine Sense.
With Ye Dong no longer blocking them, the Tower Spirits madly lunged toward him.
"Get back!"
Ye Wushuang roared, unleashing the Barbaric Tyrant Dragon Fist. A majestic and domineering Dragon Shadow of a Tyrannosaurus erupted from his fist, smashing toward the charging Tower Spirits.
With a deafening cry!
The Tyrannosaurus seemed to have burst forth from a barbaric cage, sweeping away everything in its path. Its supreme might carried a natural suppression that caused the Tower Spirits’ attacks to momentarily freeze.
BOOM!
With a Divine Dragon’s Tail Swing, Tower Spirits were sent flying one after another, many of them instantly shattered by the impact!
Ye Dong’s heart trembled at the sight. Only now did he realize that Ye Wushuang’s strength was far beyond ordinarily terrifying!
Quickly composing himself, he didn’t dare hold the other two back. He extended his Divine Sense, rapidly searching for the entrance while Ye Wushuang suppressed and killed the Tower Spirits in front of him.
"Found it!"
About thirty minutes later, the trio had moved to an area where the Tower Spirits were most concentrated.
Ye Dong pointed to a black corridor in the center.
This corridor extended upward, leading directly to the second floor.
Above them, a few figures could be seen moving.
One of them was Luo Yunfeng, who was bringing up the rear!
He also saw Ye Wushuang’s group and sneered in disdain. He suddenly grabbed a young man in front of him who was about to step onto the second floor and, with a heave, threw him backward.
AH!
The young man had no time to react before he crashed into the horde of Tower Spirits and was torn to shreds in an instant.
’Bastard!’
Seeing this, Ye Dong roared, "Luo Yunfeng, you’re fucking courting death!"
BOOM!
Ye Dong charged forward in a rage.
He recognized the young man from before. It was a Ye Family disciple, Ye Xun. That despicable Luo Yunfeng had actually made a move and killed him!
As Ye Dong moved, Ye Wushuang and Ye Rou also sprang into action, rushing toward the black corridor.
"Hmph, trash!" Luo Yunfeng sneered. Then, his gaze fell on Ye Wushuang with a sinister look as he said coldly, "Ye Wushuang, you’d better not come up. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you die a very ugly death."
With that, his figure vanished at the entrance to the corridor.
