CHAPTER 530: CHAPTER 530: THIS SPAN IS A BIT LARGE

"Since that’s the case, I want to see just how far this kid’s aptitude can reach?"

Emperor Yan smiled slightly.

During the previous trial, she intentionally set a challenge to help others.

It was because she hoped that the inheritor of her legacy would be a person with compassion and loyalty.

That time, Ling Chen’s performance won her heart.

Just now, before ascending the tower, Ling Chen stopped his subordinates and entered the tower first.

She was quite satisfied with Ling Chen.

Only by finding a person with compassion and loyalty was there a great chance of avenging her.

Because her enemy was definitely a terrifying existence.

Even the family behind her did not dare to openly confront such a power.

To seek revenge, she could only find someone on her own.

Although it seemed she was still within the Emperor Yan Realm, with means reaching the heavens,

In reality, she had long fallen.

All that remained here was a wisp of her Divine Soul.

She couldn’t even sustain it for much longer.

That was why she took action against those like Xia Jiuyou and a few other Kings, who obstructed others from entering this place.

Even going so far as to go easy in the first trial.

The goal was to find a qualified successor.

"Finally reached the eighth level of the Primordial Pill Realm!"

Ling Chen’s face lifted with a satisfied smile.

Reaching the eighth level of the Primordial Pill Realm, his strength had increased significantly.

Even when facing ninth-level cultivators like Xia Biluo, he now had some chance of winning.

A major reason he now surpassed ninth-level cultivators was his Divine Soul Telekinesis.

If Xia Biluo and others had not yet advanced to the ninth level of the Primordial Pill Realm, his Divine Soul Attack might still threaten them.

However, since Xia Biluo and the others were ninth-level cultivators, and due to their Sacred Body, their Divine Soul was much stronger than that of cultivators at the same level.

Thus, his Divine Soul Attack was basically ineffective against these people.

Of course, if his Divine Soul Realm truly reached the late transformation stage, dealing with these people should be no issue.

But in the end, he was only in the mid-transformation stage.

It was just because of his Sunlight Holy Body that his Telekinesis was a bit stronger than an ordinary Divine Thought Master.

"Continue."

Ling Chen stood up and walked towards the sixth floor.

Watching Ling Chen’s disappearing figure, Emperor Yan smiled slightly and said, "Perhaps, I should increase the difficulty for him."

If Ling Chen truly possessed that kind of Sacred Body, late ninth-level cultivators probably wouldn’t be able to cause much trouble for him.

The sixth floor.

"What’s going on?"

Ling Chen had been in this place for quite a while.

However, this time, no Guardian appeared.

He glanced at the passageway leading to the seventh floor, finding it covered by light and not open at all.

"Could it be that there’s some problem here?"

Ling Chen was full of confusion.

The passageway not opening meant that he had not passed this floor.

"Let’s wait a bit longer!"

Ling Chen was not lacking in patience.

About a quarter of an hour later, light converged in the center of the sixth floor.

"Here it comes!"

Ling Chen stared at that spot.

Soon, another black-robed cultivator emerged.

"Make your move!"

Ling Chen raised his longsword with his right hand.

However, when his gaze fell on the black-robed cultivator, his expression turned somewhat strange.

"Late ninth-level Primordial Pill Realm?"

Ling Chen’s face was full of astonishment.

This was completely beyond his expectations!

The opponent on the previous floor was only at the mid-eighth level of the Primordial Pill Realm.

This time, it had suddenly risen to the late ninth level; the jump was really a bit too much!

Just one floor difference, and the cultivation level was more than a whole level higher.

What then would be the cultivation of the cultivator in the ninth floor of the Treasure Tower?

It wouldn’t directly be a Palace Mansion Realm King, would it?

Then there’s no point in fighting at all!

He might as well just admit defeat.

A Palace Mansion Realm King was simply not someone he could deal with at the moment!

That is the difference of an entire major realm!

"Surprised, aren’t you?"

The robed Cultivator stared at Ling Chen, the corners of his mouth revealing a hint of a smile.

"Yes, quite surprised!"

Ling Chen nodded: "I didn’t expect your strength to be this high."

"What, are you scared now?"

The robed Cultivator asked.

"I am not."

Ling Chen shook his head: "Your level of strength might not necessarily make you my match."

"Is that so? Then let me witness it?"

The robed Cultivator said with a smile.

Not in the least annoyed by the faint disdain in Ling Chen’s words.

"Alright!"

Ling Chen nodded.

His eyes filled with solemnity.

Although he had been somewhat arrogant in speech, he would not underestimate his opponent when it really came to fighting.

"Slash!"

Injecting Spiritual Power into the longsword in his hand, Ling Chen raised his right hand, a strike of black Sword Qi surged forth, targeting the robed Cultivator.

Although he was at the early stages of level eight, his Spiritual Power was already comparable to the latter stages of level one in the Palace Mansion Realm.

And his opponent was in the latter stages of level nine, and according to previous estimates, was likely a Super Spiritual Body caliber as well.

At most, his Spiritual Power could compare to the mid-stages of level two in the Palace Mansion Realm.

Not even a full level higher than him.

He still had confidence in defeating him.

Thus, he made his move immediately, wanting to test his opponent’s Spiritual Power.

"You might as well use some Stellar Blade Techniques, or else you are not my match!"

The robed Cultivator revealed a grin and also launched a Sword Qi, shattering Ling Chen’s Sword Qi.

Emperor Yan naturally knew about the Stellar Blade Technique that Ling Chen had used before.

And this robed Cultivator, he was created by her.

Naturally, he also knew something about it.

"Spiritual Power really is a bit stronger than mine!"

Ling Chen dodged the Sword Qi in a flash.

"Then as you wish!"

Ling Chen’s eyes turned frosty.

"Extinguish Stars!"

Ling Chen shouted explosively, black Spiritual Power whistled out crazily, gathering on the black longsword in his hand.

Afterward, a fierce Sword Qi struck towards the robed Cultivator.

Of course, this time, he directly imbued it with the power of the Stellar Blade Realm!

"As expected!"

Emperor Yan’s eyes shone faintly, and she exclaimed with delight: "Mastering the Stellar Blade Realm at level seven of the Primordial Pill Realm, his comprehension is indeed good, worthy of being a genius with such a Sacred Body."

"Boom!"

The black Sword Qi directly slashed onto the body of the robed young man.

Tearing him into two halves.

The robed young man did not even manage to counterattack.

"Why didn’t you fight back?"

Ling Chen stared at the robed young man, who had reformed, and frowned.

The robed young man smiled slightly: "Having seen your attack, I understood I’m not your match, so naturally, there’s no need for me to make a move!"

As his voice fell, the robed young man instantly transformed into a torrent of Spiritual Power, whooshing towards Ling Chen.

Ling Chen handled it with practiced ease, completely refining the influx of Spiritual Power into his body.

Two quarters of an hour later, Ling Chen opened his eyes.

His eyes seemed to shoot out brilliant lights.

His cultivation had improved again, advancing directly to the mid-stage of level eight, only a step away from the late-stage of level eight.

After all, the Cultivator’s cultivation was at the late-stage of level nine.

And the intensity of his Spiritual Power was still above that of Ling Chen.

His progress was naturally to be expected.

"Seeing how effortlessly he displayed it, it probably isn’t his limit yet, right?"

Emperor Yan smiled faintly, then her form dissipated, reappearing inside the seventh floor of the Treasure Tower.

"The seventh floor!"

Ling Chen got up and stepped towards the seventh floor.

Although the opponent who appeared on the sixth floor was already quite strong,

He was not the type to admit defeat easily.

Even if it was a Palace Mansion Realm king, he would still give it a fight.

As a Cultivator, why fear a battle?
