Long Yu was chased by group after group of powerful exotic beasts until he arrived at the staircase leading to the seventh level of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
"To think that the direction the Dragon Seal of the Nine Underworlds led me to the staircase leading to the seventh level …"
Long Yu pondered as he sensed the approaching exotic beasts behind him.
If he didn't head up to the seventh level now, he would definitely die if he were to face the Human Tribulation realm exotic beasts head-on.
Not to mention the fact that he had exhausted all his mystical Qi, even if he were at his peak and executed the great desolate-grade martial skill, Dragon of the Nine Underworlds Explosions, he wouldn't be able to deal with so many exotic beasts.
As for the true spirit of the Dragon of the Nine Underworlds, he was unwilling to release it no matter what.
Once it was released, the terrifying primordial consciousness would appear. Long Yu didn't know what kind of situation he would face!
On the contrary, if he were to step onto the seventh level of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, he might have a chance of survival.
"Since the Dragon Seal of the Nine Underworlds led me here, I'll go!"
Long Yu quickly made up his mind. The pitch-black wings on his back flapped, turning him into a black afterimage as he flew towards the nearest staircase leading to the seventh level of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
Before long, the pitch-black staircase appeared before him.
"I'm going to die anyway. If there are still powerful exotic beasts gathered on the staircase, I'll have no choice but to release the Dragon of the Nine Underworlds …"
Long Yu made up his mind and stepped onto the staircase!
Seeing his figure disappear at the staircase, the group of Human Tribulation realm exotic beasts chasing him immediately stopped in their tracks and retreated in fear.
What they feared was, of course, the staircase leading to the seventh level of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower!
Just what kind of place was the seventh level of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower?
Long Yu stepped onto the pitch-black staircase and felt an even denser aura of the Nine Underworlds surrounding him. It suddenly surged towards him and surrounded him entirely.
As he stepped on air, he didn't step on any stairs. Instead, he floated in mid-air.
Immediately after, a five-colored glow shone before his eyes, allowing him to see the space before him clearly. It wasn't a shrine like the sixth level, but an empty space filled with multicolored light!
Long Yu turned around and his heart tightened.
Sure enough, there was nothing behind him except for the multicolored glow. The staircase he had just stepped into had completely disappeared.
"There are no walls on this floor. It's just a space made up of light … Is there really no way to leave this place?"
Long Yu frowned slightly.
In order to leave the Dragon Skeleton Ancient Tower, one only had to follow the wall and turn right on each floor. However, there were no walls in sight on the seventh floor. How was one to leave?
No wonder no one had ever left the seventh floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
"However, after coming to this space, the Dragon Seal of the Nine Underworlds has become more active … Is it over there? Let's go and take a look! "
Long Yu continued to follow the guidance of the Nine Underworlds Dragon Seal and flew towards the depths of the colorful glow.
He could sense that the multicolored lights in the surroundings contained extremely dense Netherworld Energy, causing him to feel rather comfortable in this space.
In such an environment, even if he were to face a Human Tribulation realm beast or a Human Tribulation realm expert, he might be able to defeat them!
Netherworld Qi revolved around Long Yu's body, and the pitch-black wings on his back flapped, carrying him into the depths of this multicolored space.
"The Netherworld Energy is getting denser and denser."
Long Yu was constantly sensing the situation around him. Suddenly, his heart stirred. He saw that not far away from him, there was a Martial Cultivator's corpse floating in the midst of the multi-colored light.
"This is the Martial Cultivator who entered the seventh floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower and failed to leave, eventually dying in the Rainbow Glow?"
Long Yu flapped his wings and approached the corpse. He discovered that the corpse had already turned into bones and he couldn't tell who it was at all. However, there was a crystal necklace hanging on the bones.
This crystal necklace was undoubtedly a Battle Weapon. Furthermore, its grade seemed to have surpassed the Mystic Grade!
"Above the Mystic Grade is the Earth Grade and even the Heaven Grade. Could this necklace be an Earth Grade Battle Weapon? "
Long Yu didn't have any reservations. He took off the crystal necklace and couldn't help but frown when he felt the energy contained within it.
Although the crystal necklace seemed to be an Earth Grade Battle Weapon, he couldn't feel any energy waves from it when he held it in his hand.
It was as if the energy within it had been absorbed by something.
"Oh right, this colorful glow!"
Long Yu's expression changed as he scanned his surroundings.
He didn't notice it at first, but now that he felt it carefully, he realized that the colorful glow surrounding him seemed to have some kind of suction force that was absorbing the various energies in his body.
The seventh floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower was filled with this kind of energy-absorbing glow!
"I have to find something to attract the Nine Underworlds Dragon Seal as soon as possible."
Long Yu gritted his teeth as he felt the energy in his body being absorbed bit by bit. He knew that he didn't have much time left.
Although the glow was absorbing energy very slowly, there was no way to stop it from absorbing the energy in his body. If this went on, Long Yu would soon die of exhaustion.
He had to find something that was compatible with the Nine Underworlds Dragon Seal as soon as possible. Long Yu could sense that it was not far ahead, floating right in the center of the colorful glow!
He flapped the wings on his back and flew forward continuously.
Not long after, he indeed saw the colorful glow not far ahead start to dissipate. In its place was a strange pitch-black area!
"It's the aura of the Nine Underworlds!"
Long Yu wasn't alarmed. Instead, he was overjoyed. He had the Nine Underworlds Dragon Seal on him. The place that the Nine Underworlds Dragon Seal was leading him to was probably the place that was filled with the Nine Underworlds Qi!
Long Yu flew forward continuously and soon arrived at the place where the colorful glow and the Nine Underworlds Qi were. He discovered that there was no conflict between the two energies and they coexisted peacefully.
However, the moment Long Yu arrived at the area where the Nine Underworlds Qi was, he felt something different.
The Nine Underworlds Dragon Seal on his chest was burning hot and attracted to the center of the pitch-black Nine Underworlds Qi!
After arriving here, Long Yu felt that he had become one with the Nine Underworlds Qi in this space. Gradually, he could vaguely sense the situation in the entire Ancient Dragon Bone Tower through the Nine Underworlds Qi.
"Yan Huan, Mo, Man Xin, Tian Yutian … have already left?"
With a single thought, Long Yu seemed to sense the situation on the fourth floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. The people that he was concerned about were all fine and were heading towards the exit of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
"Chi Huo has also left."
On the fifth floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, Chi Huo was also heading towards the exit.
"It's a pity that I won't be able to deal with those two for now."
On the sixth floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, Zhan Teng and Guan Shanxiong, the two Worldly Glory realm experts who had chased after Long Yu, were also heading towards the exit because the month was almost up.
From their expressions, they did not seem to have gained much from the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower this time round. Most importantly, they did not even obtain a single piece of Nine Underworlds Origin – that was something that they were naturally dissatisfied with.
Amidst that blurry feeling, Long Yu approached the center of the seventh floor.
In front of him, an incomparably huge dragon scale appeared in front of Long Yu.
"Dragon scale. The scale of a Dragon of Nine Underworlds?"
Long Yu's expression changed slightly as he raised his head. He saw the same pitch-black patterns as the Nine Underworlds Dragon Seal on the dragon scale. It looked extremely ancient and exuded an endless, primordial aura.
To Long Yu, the dragon scale was comparable to a tall building. It was dozens of feet wide and five to six feet thick, exuding an endless Nine Underworlds Qi.
"This is the core of the entire Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, the source of the Nine Underworlds Qi!"
Long Yu was shocked.
He had not expected to see a dragon scale of a Dragon of Nine Underworlds on the seventh floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
There was no doubt that it was a coincidence, but it was also inevitable.
If not for the fact that Long Yu possessed the Nine Underworlds Dragon Seal, he would not have risked his life to enter the seventh floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. Furthermore, even if Long Yu was here now, he would not know what to do with the dragon scale.
Take it away?
Even the Nine Underworlds Dimension would not be able to contain such a huge dragon scale!
"Right, the Nine Underworlds Qi is so rich here. Why don't I try cultivating and comprehending the laws of Nine Underworlds here?"
Since there was no good way for him to leave this place for the time being, Long Yu could only calm down and attempt to comprehend the rich laws of Nine Underworlds around him.
…
A month's time was up.
The disciples of the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm who had entered the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, as well as over a hundred martial arts cultivators who had participated in the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection, came out of the tower.
Of the five hundred people who had entered this time, over three hundred people had come out. The death rate was not as terrifying as Xuanji Shanhai had said at the start.
Xuanji Shanhai had been guarding the entrance of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. When the month's time was up, all the stairs leading to the second floor of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower were closed. This caused Xuanji Shanhai's expression to darken completely.
That was because his younger brother, Xuanji Shanhai, had not come out of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower!
"How is that possible? Did that kid forget the time?"
Xuanji Shanhai's expression was gloomy. One month's time was up. He had to come out of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, or he would die. Xuanji Tianchen would definitely know that.
"Senior Brother Shanhai, I'm sorry to tell you that Junior Brother Tianchen died on the fifth floor of the tower. As for how he was killed, I did not see it clearly."
At that moment, the tall Zhan Teng, a cultivator in the Renhua Realm, came to Xuanji Shanhai's side.
Although Zhan Teng was powerful, he still maintained enough respect in front of Xuanji Shanhai. That was because Xuanji Shanhai's martial arts realm was not something he could compare with at the moment.
"Dead?"
Xuanji Shanhai's expression froze.
Even if he had not seen Xuanji Tianchen come out, he would not have been so sure that his younger brother had died. However, after hearing it from Zhan Teng himself, Xuanji Shanhai was almost certain!
"Who did it?"
Xuanji Shanhai's expression became even more gloomy.
"I don't know. We did not catch up. That guy left us at the top of the sixth floor."
The burly young man, Guan Shanxiong, shook his head and came to Zhan Teng's side. He said, "It should not be the people who entered the ancient tower with us this time. Those disciples who participated in the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection could not have the ability to kill Junior Brother Tianchen."
Xuanji Shanhai did not say anything, but his eyes swept across everyone present.
Long Yu did not appear.
"Did he really die inside?"
