Chapter 643: Gift From The Trial Tower!
With a wave of her hand, Lou Qianxue withdrew the Phantom Demon Heart Fire.
“You can answer me now. Does Xu Tailang have an Abnormal Fire?”
The illusory man merged into one again. However, he was much weaker than before. He nodded and said, “The man you mentioned indeed has an Abnormal Fire, but his Abnormal Fire is different from yours. I can sense that your Abnormal Fire is complete and fully merged with you. You even have the origin of the flame within your body, which grows and multiplies endlessly. In comparison, his Abnormal Fire is merely a flame that’s stored in his body. Whenever he uses it, he’ll lose that part of it. In his attempt at the tower, when he battled me a few days ago, he completely exhausted it.”
“He also used Abnormal Fire to deal with you?”
The illusory man nodded. “However, he wasn’t as smart as you. He used brute force and the Abnormal Fire to attack me from both sides. In the end, he depleted the Abnormal Fire flame and his energy without managing to hurt me at all. However, he was stubborn. He persisted for a whole half an hour. He was then sent out as his time was up.”
“Oh.” Lou Qianxue nodded and looked at the surroundings. “Since I have already defeated you, why hasn’t the route to the ninth level appeared yet?”
“You have defeated me. Hence, you’ll become the new guardian as well as the tester on the eighth level. When the trial tower has re-created the tester, the ninth level will open.”
Just when he finished talking, bits of transparent fragments floated from the sky.
“Huh?”
Lou Qianxue glanced side-ways.
Countless fragments gathered together.
Soon...
An illusory person identical to her, just like the illusory man who called himself Qu Mobai, appeared in front of her eyes.
“From today onward, I, Lou Qianxue, will be the guardian on the eighth level of the trial tower!” the illusory person softly said.
At the next moment.
Boom!
The whole trial tower shook.
“This... What’s happening to the trial tower?”
When the crowd outside the trial tower saw the tower shaking, their expressions dramatically changed.
“Such an abnormal situation has never appeared before. Could it be that Lou Qianxue has done something?”
Everyone raised their head one after another and looked at the green spot of light on the eighth level of the trial tower.
On the eighth level of the trial tower.
A flight of spacious stairs accompanied by a roar appeared out of thin air.
The illusory man turned around and looked at the stairs with a complicated gaze. “For hundreds of years, I broke into the tower numerous times. This is the path to the ninth level that I’ve always wanted to see...”
He withdrew his gaze and looked at Lou Qianxue. “Lou Qianxue, if we can meet again one day, please tell me what the ninth level is.”
“Huh? Meet?” Lou Qianxue raised her head in shock. “Can we still meet again?”
The illusory man profoundly smiled and said, “This world is far bigger than what you think. How can geniuses like you and I easily fall in just a hundred years?”
As he spoke, his illusory body gradually became transparent.
“The eighth level has welcomed a new guardian. I have completed my mission. I should also return to my real body and inform it of everything I’ve seen and heard at this tower.”
“Return to your real body?” Lou Qianxue frowned. “What do you mean?”
“The guardian you can see is a soul created by the trial tower. Once it’s defeated, its mission will be completed and it will return to its real body. I’m like this, and it’s the same for ‘her.’”
The illusory man looked at the illusory body identical to Lou Qianxue and softly said, “When someone defeats ‘her’ one day, ‘she’ will also return to you and transform into the power of your soul. This is the gift the trial tower gives to its guardian.”
Slowly...
The illusory man’s voice gradually faded.
His figure also completely disappeared!
