Chapter 313: Nine Absolute Tower
Thinking of this, Wang Yufan’s full power erupted directly, and then he disappeared into the giant pit, taking with him the items he had previously placed in the cave.
Wang Yufan’s figure was extremely swift at this moment, as he faintly sensed several powerful forces approaching the mountain. Wang Yufan knew that if they weren’t coming for him, then it was because of the tremor just now.
As Wang Yufan left, the first to arrive were four figures dressed in black, standing high in the sky, constantly looking down.
After three breaths, one figure said, "Big Brother, there’s no trace of anyone here, only a sense of destruction. Could it be that the person undergoing tribulation was struck dead by the Nine Heavens Lightning Tribulation?"
Hearing this, the leading figure also nodded slightly and said, "What you said isn’t unreasonable. We’ve never seen such a lightning tribulation in our lives. The strongest was still our Emperor, who, during his advancement, experienced a double lightning tribulation that was already terrifying. If it weren’t for the ancestral Heart-Protecting Mirror, he wouldn’t have survived.
According to legend, this lightning tribulation is divided into three tiers: the first tier is 1-3 lightning dragons, with the potential to reach the Yuandao Realm.
The second tier is 4-6 lightning dragons, with the potential to reach the Yuanyu Realm. And the final tier, 7-9 lightning dragons, has the potential to reach the Primordial Ancestor Realm.
Now, you should understand the Emperor’s purpose in sending us four here, right?"
Hearing the words of the leader, the other three took a deep breath. They knew that if the person who underwent tribulation here successfully passed it, his future strength could reach the Original Ancestor Realm. Currently, according to their understanding, there are only five Original Ancestor Realm cultivators in this Yuansoul Realm. And this heaven and earth can only accommodate five Prime Ancestors.
If their Emperor could form a good relationship in advance with someone whose future potential could reach Prime Ancestors, then the prestige of their Mingyue Empire would greatly increase.
The few of them once again meticulously searched this mountain but found no one, so they left.
No sooner had the four of them left than another figure appeared.
When this figure appeared, even the four Imperial Shadow Guards just now didn’t sense him, which shows how terrifying this person’s strength already was. His entire body was shrouded in black mist, with only his head visible, wearing a skull mask, continuously hissing, and exuding an eerie aura.
"It seems the person who underwent tribulation here succeeded. Nine lightning dragons, ah, this is undoubtedly a chosen one, a candidate for the Original Ancestor Realm. If I can obtain this body, then I can break through to the Original Ancestor Realm.
This aura, could it be that this little fellow entered Bright Moon City? But I will find you, hehehe..."
After the figure finished speaking, he directly dispersed and vanished.
At this moment, Wang Yufan, whose figure had already returned to Bright Moon City, suddenly felt an uncomfortable sensation all over his body, a feeling as if he was being targeted. For Wang Yufan, it had been a long time since he had experienced such a feeling. He had felt it tens of thousands of years ago, and he never expected to have such a feeling again after coming to a new realm tens of thousands of years later.
When Wang Yufan arrived at the tavern, he continuously consolidated his cultivation. He had now reached the first layer of the Yuankun Realm. There was still a long way to go to reach the Primordial Ancestor Realm. Wang Yufan felt that progressing too quickly was not necessarily a good thing for his physique.
Just as Wang Yufan was meditating on the bed, he suddenly felt a very strong force coming directly towards him. Wang Yufan had no choice but to place a portion of the Chaos Bell’s suppression power on himself to conceal his cultivation realm. Wang Yufan currently had no good cultivation method to conceal his strength from highly skilled individuals. His current trump cards were the Chaos Bell, as well as the Nine Absolutes Tower and the whisk that old man Baishan had left him.
As Wang Yufan was thinking, that force arrived directly. Wang Yufan pretended not to sense it, maintaining his meditating posture.
And that divine sense scanned Wang Yufan’s body back and forth several times.
"Strange, that little fellow’s aura is right in this vicinity, so why did it suddenly disappear? Did he sense me? But even if he did, what can he do? Before you grow up, I must seize your body and your destiny. By then, I will be able to break through to Prime Ancestors, and even have a chance to touch the legendary Yuanshi Realm." The owner of this divine sense was above Wang Yufan’s location, muttering to himself, and then disappeared.
Wang Yufan originally thought it was over, but the next moment, another aura descended again. That’s right, it was Emperor Huang Wuji, the Emperor of the Mingyue Empire. Dressed in a yellow robe, he was startled by the force just now, because it belonged to a powerful figure at the Yuanyu Realm. However, he felt that the person’s aura was filled with darkness and bloodlust. If that person were to attack Bright Moon City, he might not be able to stop him, even if his own Ancestor appeared.
Emperor Huang Wuji was already getting a headache from the strange things happening these past few days. He no longer wanted to use his divine sense to scan what was happening here. He wanted to go back and listen to how the four Imperial Shadow Guards reported, to see if the person with the nine lightning dragons had been brought back. As he thought this, he directly left, though he still glanced downwards as he departed.
He felt a very familiar aura down there, but he didn’t think much of it.
As Wang Yufan, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, felt these two forces leave, the Nine Absolutes Tower appeared in his hand. Looking at the Nine Absolutes Tower, Wang Yufan recalled what old man Baishan had told him when he gave it to him: this tower could only be opened when his strength reached the Primal Spirit Realm, because it was set by him.
From the Primal Spirit Realm, he could open the first and second layers; at the Yuankun Realm, he could open the third and fourth layers, and so on. Upon reaching the Yuanyu Realm, he would be able to open all the tower layers, which contained Baishan’s ten-thousand-year collection of cultivation methods, martial arts, pills, and the like. The more Wang Yufan looked, the more tempted he became, so the next moment, he gently pointed a finger at the Nine Absolutes Tower in his hand.
The power of the first layer of the Yuankun Realm erupted, and Wang Yufan saw the very bottom layer of the Nine Absolutes Tower slowly open. Then, a white light emanated from within, accompanied by an irresistible suction force. Wang Yufan did not resist and was directly drawn into the first layer of the Nine Absolutes Tower by this force.
