Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Jun Wuxie and Queen Rhine walked into the challenge area.

Immediately, two guards inside came to life.

In the first level of the Bronze Ancient Tower, the bronze guards' empty eye sockets burned with blood-colored flames. As their bodies moved, the sound of armor rubbing echoed.

As the two guards awakened, Dao patterns lit up on their bronze armor, and a beam of blazing immortal light shot out from their bodies, directly into the mist at the top, forming a huge immortal cloud vortex.

At the same time, a terrifying aura of slaughter spread out.

"Rhine, remember, don't seek victory, seek self-preservation. Try to last as long as possible.

The bronze armor on these guards contains immortal energy, and it's highly likely that all laws are ineffective against it.

To kill them, you can only slowly grind away their immortal power and compete with their consumption.

This is also why Gong Jingyan failed to pass the challenge.

I will resolve my side as quickly as possible and come to help you then."

"Rhine understands."

Queen Rhine nodded, looking at the guards with blazing immortal light on their bodies, her expression becoming solemn.

She activated the Qiankun Battle Garment on her body, flowing with the light of stars, moon, and sun. A natural domain appeared around her body, and countless vines grew from within the domain, suspended in the air in front of her, ready to launch an attack on the guards at any time.

Jun Wuxie moved away from her, trying to keep the two battlefields a certain distance apart.

Otherwise, crossing the battlefields would not be a good thing.

The guard he was challenging remained standing in place, unmoved.

At this time, the immortal light on the guard's body had not yet subsided.

Only after a few breaths did the light on the guard's body quickly fade.

The two guards each let out a low roar and charged towards Queen Rhine and Jun Wuxie respectively.

The guards had no weapons. Even half of their hands were covered in armor. They swung their fists and smashed them directly.

Immortal light blazed, the fist imprints were extremely domineering, causing the space to violently shake.

Jun Wuxie met the attack like a stream of light, colliding with the guard, fist to fist, the remaining force spreading like a wave.

At this time, he had removed the two sublimation-type forbidden techniques, but his divine power was still terrifying.

One punch made the guard stagger back several steps!

Although the armor on the guard's body was immune to all laws and had the effect of obliterating the power of laws,

it could not resist the blood energy and divine power of a pure body cultivator.

The bronze guard was knocked back. Jun Wuxie pressed forward, his palms, fingers, and fists attacking wildly, like a storm, not giving the guard a chance to breathe, suppressing and beating him!

The bronze guard had almost no power to fight back and was constantly being beaten violently, but its immortal power was still strong.

The guard roared angrily and fought back desperately, but to no avail.

Jun Wuxie had already seen the trick.

The guards here cannot be directly killed, but need to be attacked to consume the immortal power in their bodies.

The immortal power in these guards is not made of flesh and blood, but is derived from Dao patterns and has a value.

Only by emptying that value will it fall, and only then will the challenge be passed.

If one is a non-body cultivator, the difficulty of passing the challenge can be said to be abyss-level.

One needs to challenge repeatedly, grinding away at it with time, little by little.

In this process, the margin for error is very low.

The bronze guard's defense, which is immune to all laws, is too strong, and its attack power is also very powerful. A careless move may result in serious injuries.

If one is injured and unable to successfully escape the battlefield, and is blocked by the bronze guard in the challenge area, the only outcome is death!

For Jun Wuxie, the various advantages of this ancient tower guard are almost non-existent.

In a one-on-one fight, he sticks close and directly uses a set of Chaos Blood Flame Breaking combos, unleashing forty-nine strikes.

The bronze guard was continuously stiffened, leaned back, and floated into the air by his palm, finger, fist, elbow, and knee strikes.

After several Chaos Blood Flame Breaks, the bronze guard's immortal power value dropped in a straight line like a blood collapse.

Jun Wuxie activated his pupil technique and could see the amount of immortal power value.

The fifth Chaos Blood Flame Break cleared the bronze guard's immortal power value, causing it to roar and fall backward.

The moment it fell to the ground, its body turned into a rain of light, leaving behind the bronze armor on its body, floating three inches above the ground, flowing with bronze light.

Jun Wuxie was slightly stunned.

He didn't expect that killing the guard would actually drop the bronze armor.

This thing is not an evolution of Dao patterns, but a physical object!

He took the bronze armor into his hand and observed it carefully.

The grade of the bronze armor is not high, only Heavenly God First Grade.

Its effect is very powerful, it can obliterate all laws, and there are special Dao patterns inside the bronze material.

But it has its limitations. This kind of armor is only effective against enemies below the Legendary Realm.

Once encountering a powerhouse above the Legendary Realm, the effect of the armor will be greatly reduced, and the Dao patterns inside will be broken, causing the armor to shatter and disintegrate, turning into scrap metal.

"Top powerhouses can't use it, but it's very useful for others. When the doomsday torrent breaks out, this armor can be called an indestructible fortress on the mid-level battlefield!"

Jun Wuxie contentedly put it away.

Unfortunately, the quantity is too small.

Although there are many guards wearing bronze armor on the first level of the Bronze Ancient Tower, each person can only challenge once.

He and Rhine can obtain at most two pieces of bronze armor.

Looking at Rhine's battlefield, she was currently fighting fiercely with the bronze guard.

The bronze guard was immune to all laws, and her attacks could not harm it at all.

This made her quite passive, almost giving up on attacking and completely defending and dodging.

Jun Wuxie arrived in the air, and with a Chaos Blood Flame Break, he knocked the bronze guard attacking Rhine into the air. The continuous forty-nine strikes left the bronze guard with no power to fight back.

When Rhine saw him arrive, she retreated to the side, watching him show his divine power with bright eyes, suppressing and beating the bronze guard.

No matter how the bronze guard struggled and roared, it was difficult to break free.

After a short time, the bronze guard fell to the ground in unwilling anger, its body turned into a rain of light, leaving a set of bronze armor suspended on the ground.

"Ah, this bronze armor is actually a physical object?"

Rhine couldn't help but feel surprised when she saw this scene.

This bronze guard is immune to all laws because of this armor.

Unexpectedly, when the bronze guard dies, the armor is left behind and can be obtained by the challenger!

"That's right, it is a physical object, not an evolution of Dao patterns.

Although it is only Heavenly God First Grade, it has no defensive effect against enemies above the Legendary Realm, but it can be said to be an indestructible fortress against enemies below the Legendary Realm. It can play a small role when the doomsday torrent breaks out."

Jun Wuxie took the armor over and handed it to Queen Rhine.

Rhine looked at it carefully, stroking the bronze patterns on it, and said, "This armor can obliterate the true energy of laws, is it because it contains special Dao patterns?"

As she spoke, she returned the armor to Jun Wuxie.

"That's right, but unfortunately we can only obtain two pieces on the first level.

I don't know if we can get more on the upper levels."

Jun Wuxie put away the bronze armor and then pulled Rhine towards the depths.

They passed through the challenge area and came to the bronze platform, their eyes falling on the bronze box.

"Congratulations to the fortunate people of later generations for successfully passing the first level challenge.

Open the bronze box and you will receive your reward."

A ethereal and majestic voice of order sounded in the void, echoing in this first-level space.

As the voice fell, the light of Dao patterns lit up on the bronze box, and the sealing restriction disappeared.

Jun Wuxie opened the bronze box, and a dazzling immortal light shone out.

Two training-like special energies soared into the sky, and then fell down like a waterfall, impacting him and Queen Rhine.

At the same time, the bronze box slammed shut, and the sealing restriction restarted.

"This is a special source of power that tempers the flesh, strengthens the foundation, strengthens the bones, and washes the marrow, refined from at least several kinds of heaven and earth origins!

Rhine, quickly sit down and guide it to temper your flesh!

It can not only improve the strength of the flesh, but also improve the upper limit that the strength of the flesh can reach!"

Jun Wuxie was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect that the reward for the first level challenge of the Bronze Ancient Tower would be this kind of thing.

This special source of power can be said to be much more precious than the Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill!

The Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill is valuable because it can be refined into forty-nine pills, but at a certain level, it cannot be taken continuously and will be limited by the upper limit of the flesh.

This special source of power is different, it can raise the upper limit of flesh strength to a certain extent.

He immediately sat down and began to guide the special source of power to flow along the meridians in his body, circulating through his limbs and bones, nourishing and tempering every inch of flesh.

Queen Rhine felt its extraordinary nature when the special source of power was poured into her body, and when she heard Jun Wuxie say this, she quickly sat down and entered a state of cultivation.

……

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, several days had passed.

At the entrance of the Bronze Ancient Tower, the four geniuses who had been healing their injuries these days looked at the bronze gate from time to time, and their hearts became more and more uneasy.

The young master has been in there for so long, why hasn't he come out yet?

At first, they thought that the young master had killed the man and woman and continued to challenge.

As time passed, they speculated that the young master might have passed the challenge and gone to the second level of the Bronze Ancient Tower.

But today, the unease in their hearts became stronger and stronger, and they always felt that something bad had happened, which made them no longer in the mood to heal their injuries.

Those who felt doubtful in their hearts were not only them, but also the geniuses from all walks of life waiting for an opportunity near the Bronze Ancient Tower.

It's been several days, and neither the young master nor the man and woman have made any movement.

What exactly happened on the first level of the Bronze Ancient Tower? What's the situation inside?

Their hearts were full of doubts and various speculations, but they did not dare to rush into the ancient tower to check.

If they encounter the young master after entering, the consequences would be unimaginable, and they might lose their lives because of it!

At this time, the four geniuses looked at each other, secretly exchanged ideas with their divine senses, and seemed to have reached a consensus.

Immediately, the four of them stood up at the same time, pushed open the bronze gate, and walked in.

The geniuses from all sides exchanged glances.

Perhaps the situation inside would become clear after those four came out.

Following Gong Jingyan, the four geniuses entered the first level of the Bronze Pagoda, their eyes searching, and they quickly spotted two figures sitting in the depths.

Those two people, one shrouded in crimson, crystalline blood energy, and the other shrouded in chaotic golden blood energy.

They could only vaguely see some of their figures.

The person inside the chaotic golden blood energy was undoubtedly the youth who had severely injured them.

Then who was the person nearby?

Could it be the young master?

"Is that the young master?"

"Can't see clearly, it should be the young master, otherwise, where did the young master go?"

"That's not right, if it's the young master, where did that woman go?"

"How could the young master cooperate with someone?

Look at the spatial vortex behind the bronze platform, I wonder if it leads to the second level!

Well, the young master should have gone to the second level after passing the challenge.

The two people in front of the bronze platform are that man and woman.

They must have been severely injured by the young master and are currently healing!"

"Yes, that must be the case!

Unexpectedly, they were actually able to survive in front of the young master, only being severely injured. This level of strength is truly terrifying, simply heaven-defying!"

"Perhaps they have some trump cards, or perhaps the young master is concerned about the opportunities and creations within the ancient pagoda, and doesn't want to waste time entangled with them."

"That's right, the young master is unparalleled in immortal might, if he really wanted to kill them, how could they have survived?

Huh? What is that, it looks like a corpse..."

As one genius spoke, his eyes glanced at a corner in the distance.

There, shrouded in a faint mist, was a bronze pillar, and next to the pillar lay a shriveled corpse, its clothes congealed with blood, a patch of dark red, its head shattered, looking very miserable.

"When we came in last time, it seems we didn't see a corpse.

Could it be the woman beside that youth?

Could one of the two people in front of the bronze platform really be the young master?"

"Go, let's go take a look."

Filled with doubt, they quickly walked towards the corpse several thousand meters away.

"That's not right, it's not a woman, judging by the figure, it's a man."

"That's right, you can tell it's a man at a glance, perhaps we didn't notice it last time.

I wonder which unlucky fellow it is, actually dying so miserably, lying in state here."

"Alas, how tragic, coming in to seek opportunities and creations, but overestimating one's abilities, resulting in a miserable death on the first level of the ancient pagoda.

With this level of difficulty, the challenge can probably only be passed by invincible geniuses like our young master, who is unparalleled in immortal might.

It seems that the young master chose to cooperate with that youth and woman in order to save time..."

As the four geniuses spoke, they squatted down and turned the corpse over.

As they examined it, their expressions gradually changed, their bodies began to tremble, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

"No... impossible..."

They frantically tore open the corpse's outer garment, revealing the inner clothing inside.

There was a conspicuous symbol on the inner clothing, precisely their family crest!

The four geniuses' pupils constricted, as if struck by lightning, their faces instantly turned pale, and they sat down on the ground, their entire bodies seeming to have been drained of strength.

"No!! Young Master, how could you fall to such a tragic state!"

"Young Master, you are unparalleled in immortal beauty, invincible in your generation, how could you have fallen? We don't believe it, this isn't real, absolutely not!"

The four geniuses cried their hearts out, their voices filled with grief, their faith collapsing at this moment.

"No! The young master won't die, the young master is invincible, how could he? We must be seeing things..."

They simply couldn't accept such a reality.

Over the years, looking up to the young master's invincible glory, they only felt that they were incomparably proud.

The young master had already become a spiritual belief in their hearts.

They had never thought that one day their faith would suddenly collapse, that invincible young master in their hearts would actually die with such a tragic ending.

His head shattered, even his appearance couldn't be seen clearly, his body was covered in blood, his flesh shriveled, as if he had been sucked dry!

"It's them, they must have killed the young master!"

The four men's eyes were bloodshot, their eyeballs filled with blood streaks, and they looked at Jun Wuxie and Queen Rhine, who were cultivating, with incomparable hatred and resentment, their teeth gnashing.

"Calm down! We are not their opponents, we need to quickly take the young master's remains away, return to our world, and report the situation to the clan leader!

Only in this way can we avenge the young master and make those two pay a hundredfold price!"

One of the four geniuses forcibly restrained the grief in his heart, dissuading the other three, and walked away carrying Gong Jingyan's corpse.

The geniuses from all sides who were observing the situation near the Bronze Pagoda suddenly saw the four who had entered rushing out, one of them carrying a corpse with a shattered head and shriveled body, and they couldn't help but be stunned.

By the time they came back to their senses, the four had already gone far away and disappeared without a trace.

"What's the situation?"

The geniuses from all sides looked at each other, their faces filled with shock.

"That young master is dead, and he died very tragically!"

The geniuses from all sides already understood in their hearts.

Only three people entered the Bronze Pagoda, and after those four went in, they came out so quickly, carrying a dried corpse directly away.

Who was that dried corpse? Their identity was self-evident.

The geniuses from all sides all looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear.

"They didn't think about directly avenging the young master, what does that mean?"

"It means that the person who killed their young master was at least not seriously injured!"

"That man and woman, what exactly are their backgrounds, to actually have such heaven-defying strength!

What do we do now, are we still going in?"

The geniuses from all sides hesitated, completely giving up the opportunities and creations of the Bronze Pagoda, and they felt unwilling no matter how they thought about it.

But the pair of men and women inside the Bronze Pagoda were too terrifying.

Even the young master of those four died in their hands.

Although they had never seen that young master make a move, the four great geniuses under him were already so strong.

How terrifying was the young master whom the four called invincible?

Such a terrifying person actually died in the Bronze Pagoda!

"Or should we try to take a risk?

That man and woman, perhaps they are not as tyrannical and overbearing as that young master, killing people at every turn.

Otherwise, back then, those four would not have been able to survive here, they would have been killed on the spot..."

"That makes sense, I think the analysis is very correct..."

"Then... shall we try?"

The geniuses from all sides couldn't resist the temptation brought by the opportunities and creations within the Bronze Pagoda, gritted their teeth, and decided to take a risk and try.
