"Xiu!"
At this moment, outside the Tower of Souls.
A few streaks of light whizzed across the sky and landed on the ground.
It was the Sky Incense Valley disciple who had left earlier. He had invited the Elder who was in charge of the Contest Grounds.
The arrival of the Elder shocked everyone outside the Tower.
After all, he was an Infant Transformation Stage cultivator. These cultivators rarely had the chance to see him. Some of them had trained their entire lives and had only seen an Infant Transformation Stage cultivator for the first time.
"He's so strong. In front of him, I can't help but want to kneel down."
"This is the aura of an Infant Transformation Stage cultivator. It's so scary!"
"If I can successfully enter the Sky Incense Valley, I might be able to receive guidance from an Infant Transformation Stage cultivator in the future. I would definitely benefit greatly from this!"
The crowd murmured as they looked at the Elder.
"Greetings, Seventh Elder!"
As soon as the Elder arrived, all the Sky Incense Valley disciples knelt down and greeted him respectfully.
The Elder covered his mouth and nose as he frowned, "What's that smell?"
One of the Sky Incense Valley disciples replied, "Elder, this is a delicacy cooked by the black robed young man. It's called the Smelly Tofu. I just got a piece and haven't had the chance to eat it yet."
As soon as he finished, he handed over a piece of black and swarthy Smelly Tofu.
"This can be considered a delicacy?"
The Seventh Elder's mouth twitched.
On the way here, he had already heard about this from a few disciples. But now that he had seen this piece of Smelly Tofu with his own eyes and smelled its pungent smell, he found it hard to accept.
"I didn't believe it at first either. But … This thing smells bad and tastes good. It can even increase one's soul strength!" The Sky Incense Valley disciple replied respectfully.
"Increase one's soul strength?" The Seventh Elder was shocked. He waved his hand and the piece of black and swarthy Smelly Tofu floated into his hands.
The crowd's eyes followed the Smelly Tofu closely and revealed a look of envy. Some of them even licked their lips as if they wanted more.
The Seventh Elder stared at the Smelly Tofu suspiciously. He couldn't see anything strange about it.
Perhaps he felt everyone's burning gazes on the Smelly Tofu. After hesitating for a while, the Seventh Elder placed the Smelly Tofu into his mouth.
In the next moment, his murky eyes suddenly opened wide and were filled with shock!
"It's really delicious, and … there's a strange power that seems to be affecting my divine soul. No, this … this is a divine item that can nourish the divine soul!" The Seventh Elder's heart was filled with horror!
The Sky Incense Valley was famous for their ability to concoct medicine. However, they only had one type of medicine that could nourish one's Soul Strength. Furthermore, the success rate of concocting the medicine was extremely low. Even after concocting it, it would be kept as a treasure of the Sect and would not be taken out easily.
But now, just a piece of Stinky Tofu, a piece of strange food, could actually have the effect of nourishing his Soul Power. This really shocked him.
The Seventh Elder suddenly raised his head and looked at Xu Que, who was looking around the fourth level, and shouted in surprise, "Young friend Hua!"
Xu Que was still wondering if there was really someone upstairs when he was startled by the Seventh Elder's shout. He immediately glared and scolded, "Flower your sister! Why are you shouting so loudly? "
"Fuck!"
Everyone was shocked and sucked in a breath of cold air. Their faces were filled with shock as they looked at Xu Que. They thought to themselves, when did this guy run up to the fourth level? And does he not want to live anymore? How dare he speak to an Elder of the Sky Incense Valley in such a manner?
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is 50 act tough points!"
Obviously, Xu Que had unintentionally succeeded in acting tough!
However, not only did the Seventh Elder not get angry, he even looked apologetic as he laughed, "Young friend Hua, please don't be angry. This old man was indeed rude. I wonder if it's convenient for you to come down. This old man has something to ask you!"
"It's not convenient. Can't you see that I'm busy clearing the levels?" Xu Que didn't even think before rejecting him.
The Seventh Elder hurriedly replied, "Young friend Hua, this old man is an Elder of the Sky Incense Valley. I'm ranked seventh. Actually, you've already fulfilled the requirements to become an elite disciple. You've already passed this level. There's no need for you to continue."
"No way. I'm a man of principles. If I say I'm going to clear the levels, I'm going to do it. I won't stop until I reach the top!" Xu Que replied firmly.
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
"The Elder actually didn't get angry? He even apologized to him? "
"And … Did I hear wrongly? The Elder said that he wanted to make him an elite disciple in advance and he rejected? "
"What is this guy trying to do?"
"Really … I can't understand him!"
The Sky Incense Valley disciples were also stunned as they stared blankly at Xu Que.
At this point, Xu Que turned around and was about to leave.
The Seventh Elder hurriedly called out to him, "Young friend Hua, this old man will wait for you to reach the fifth level. Then we can go to the stone house and have a chat, alright?"
"The fifth level? Are you kidding me? I'm going to the tenth level. Don't say anymore, I need to pee. It's better to go to the top of the tower. All of you better hide far away later! "As soon as Xu Que finished speaking, he shot up to the fifth level and disappeared from the window of the tower.
The Seventh Elder and the rest of the Cultivators were speechless.
Go to the tenth level? And go to the top of the tower to pee? Why don't you just go to heaven?
It was already very scary for an ordinary Cultivator to reach the fifth level. After all, there was a limit to the strength of one's soul.
Even the Seventh Elder of the Sky Incense Valley could only reach the center of the seventh level!
"The higher he goes, the stronger the pressure on his soul. Forget it, he'll understand when he reaches the fifth level." The Seventh Elder shook his head and muttered to himself.
At the same time, the Sky Incense Valley disciples hurriedly moved the window of the tower upwards. The image of Xu Que appeared on the fifth level.
At this point, he had already reached the center of the fifth level. It seemed like the pressure wasn't too great. It was as if he was carrying something as he walked. His speed was extremely slow but he was still able to move forward.
This scene instantly stunned everyone present!
"How … How is this possible?"
"He's still able to move forward in the fifth level?"
"Could it be that he's trying to break through to the sixth level? My god, how is this possible? "The Sky Incense Valley disciples exclaimed out in shock.
Even the Seventh Elder was dumbfounded. He was extremely shocked.
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is 40 act tough points!"
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is 60 act tough points!"
However, Xu Que still continued to move forward.
Right now, he could indeed feel the pressure. It was as if he was walking in a swamp. Every step he took was extremely heavy and difficult.
However, he was still able to withstand it. He could also vaguely feel that his soul strength was fighting against the pressure. Although it was very subtle, he could clearly feel the changes.
Very quickly, he arrived at the bottom of the stairs leading to the sixth level. He raised his head and looked up, hesitating slightly.
"If I go up again, I'm afraid I'll have to exchange for the Dark Jade Dew again. Should I buy it or not?"
...
"My friend Hua, I didn't expect you to have such strong soul strength at such a young age. This old man is really impressed. However, it's better not to go up to the sixth level. That level is no longer a place for youngsters like you to stay. "Below the tower, the Seventh Elder hurriedly advised.
When Xu Que heard this, he became unhappy.
"Damn, this old thing actually dares to provoke me? If you don't let me go up, I'll go up! " He snorted in his heart and spent 500 act tough points to exchange for a drop of Dark Jade Dew. He swallowed it and walked towards the sixth level.
The Seventh Elder's expression changed as he exclaimed, "My friend Hua, you mustn't! This old man isn't joking with you. The sixth level's soul strength is extremely strong. If your soul strength isn't strong enough, before the Tower of Souls can expel you, your soul will be completely crushed. "
Xu Que stopped abruptly and turned around. He looked at the crowd outside the tower and laughed, "So what?"
The crowd outside the tower froze!
Soon after, Xu Que's expression became somewhat impassioned. He looked up at a 45 degree angle and spoke out in a sonorous voice, "I'll be a hero in life and a hero in death. My path to becoming a strong cultivator will not be stopped by a mere Tower of Souls!"
As he finished speaking, he turned around and walked up!
