SSS rank Mother-In-Law to an Invincible Family-Chapter 396: Climbing The Pagoda 3

Meanwhile, Sun Yichen entered the next chamber, stepping onto a battlefield of molten rock, lava bubbling ominously beneath stone platforms.

The air shimmered from the heat, and in the distance, the loud stomps of approaching creatures echoed.

Suddenly, two massive magma hounds leaped onto the battlefield, their burning eyes fixed on him.

The beasts’ bodies were made entirely of molten rock, and every step they took left trails of fire behind them.

Sun Yichen exhaled, his hand tightening around the hilt of his sword. "Fire against fire, huh? Fine. Let’s see whose flames burn hotter!"

"Crimson Sun Slash!"

With a swing of his blade, a wave of golden-red fire erupted, crashing into the hounds with immense force.

The creatures snarled as their bodies cracked from the impact, but they weren’t finished yet. They lunged at him, their jaws snapping with lethal intensity.

Sun Yichen sidestepped at the last moment, bringing his sword down with a fiery arc. One of the hounds howled as it was split in two, its molten body dissolving into embers.

The remaining beast launched a stream of flame at him, forcing him to leap backward.

"Persistent, aren’t you?" Sun Yichen smirked. "Then let’s finish this."

His aura surged, and his blade burned even brighter.

"Blazing Dragon Inferno!"

A gigantic dragon composed of flames roared into existence behind him, coiling before shooting forward with devastating force.

The magma hound let out a final roar before being engulfed in the inferno, its form completely incinerated.

The notification screen flashed before him.

[Level 1-5 – Completed.]

Sun Yichen grinned. "Next." He stepped into the portal.

The audience was stunned.

"Wow!"

"That was amazing! He defeated those monsters with such ease!"

"I don’t think there’s a single person here who can stand up to these guys."

Similarly, Lei Zhentian found himself in a dense bamboo forest. The moment he entered, the stalks of bamboo trembled, and shadows moved swiftly among them.

Suddenly, five masked assassins emerged, their daggers gleaming. Their movements were silent, but their killing intent was undeniable.

Lei Zhentian smirked. "Cowards hiding in the shadows? Come on, then!"

The assassins lunged in perfect sync, their blades aiming for his vital points.

But they underestimated his speed.

With a single step, Lei Zhentian vanished, reappearing behind one of them.

"Heavenly Thunder Palm!"

His lightning-infused palm strike connected with the assassin’s back, sending him flying through several bamboo stalks, unconscious before he hit the ground.

The remaining assassins reacted instantly, adjusting their tactics. They surrounded him, their daggers glowing with poisonous mist.

"Not bad," Lei Zhentian admitted, cracking his knuckles.

The assassins charged.

Lei Zhentian smashed his foot into the ground, sending shockwaves rippling through the battlefield. The force disrupted their balance, and in a flash, he was among them.

"Thunderstorm Fist!"

His fists blurred, crackling with electricity as he struck down the assassins one by one. Within seconds, they collapsed, their bodies twitching from the residual electricity.

The forest fell silent.

The notification screen flashed:

[Level 1-4 – Completed.]

The spectators watched in awe as the large Lei family member effortlessly demolished the assassins, his brutish techniques more than enough to handle the stealthy foes.

"That was incredible!"

"Lei Zhentian is a powerhouse!"

"I can’t believe how strong these competitors are..."

However, unlike the others, Zhao Min’s battlefield was an icy tundra. The freezing winds howled around her as she faced a massive frost bear, its breath forming clouds of mist.

The creature let out a deep growl, charging toward her.

Zhao Min stood her ground, her ice spear forming in her hands.

"Frozen Crescent!"

She swung her weapon, sending a wave of ice shards flying. The frost bear roared in pain as its front legs were partially frozen, causing it to stumble.

She didn’t give it a chance to recover.

"Glacial Spear Strike!"

She slammed the butt of her spear into the ground, and a burst of ice erupted from below, encasing the beast in a thick prison.

It struggled to free itself, but the ice held firm.

Zhao Min approached the trapped beast, her expression calm.

"Icy Heart."

She struck its forehead with her palm, her cold Qi seeping into its body.

The frost bear shivered as its fur began to lose its color. Soon, its entire body was encased in ice, its eyes glazed over.

With one final cry, the beast shattered into countless shards of ice.

Her notification screen flashed.

[Level 1-5 – Completed.]

She turned and stepped into the portal, her face blank.

The audience in the stadium was completely engrossed, their eyes glued to the massive projection screens.

"Unbelievable! Sun Yichen just wiped out two magma hounds in seconds!"

"Lei Zhentian was like a force of nature! Did you see how easily he handled those assassins?"

"Zhao Min’s control over ice is terrifying. She barely moved, yet she took down that frost bear like it was nothing!"

The excitement was palpable.

In the VIP section, the elders of various families nodded in approval.

"They are performing well," an elder from the Fang family commented.

"Yes, but they must conserve their energy," another added. "There are still many levels to go."

The leaders of the different factions murmured their agreement.

"The most important thing is reaching the top," the leader of the Qiao family stated, stroking his beard.

"Indeed," the leader of the Shen family nodded.

As the excitement continued, the battles inside the Pagoda were growing more intense.

Fang Zixuan stepped out of his portal, entering a massive open field surrounded by tall stone walls. A cool breeze blew through the air, and the grass swayed gently.

"Another challenge," he muttered, scanning the area.

Suddenly, a large figure leaped out from behind a wall, landing heavily in front of him. It was a massive beast, its body covered in thick black fur. Its crimson eyes glowed with ferocity, and its claws gleamed dangerously.

"A Spiritual Beast Tiger," Fang Zixuan recognized.

The tiger let out a loud roar, its presence oppressive.

"Come, then," Fang Zixuan challenged, readying his sword.

The beast charged, its powerful muscles propelling it forward.

"Golden Dragon Slash!"

Fang Zixuan met its attack head-on, his blade slicing through the air with incredible speed.
