The second floor's record was broken again.
Inside the Trial Tower, Xiao Chen felt somewhat excited. Honestly speaking, he did not have much hope of breaking the second floor's record.
As long as he did his best, he would try.
Unexpectedly, he managed to break it again in the end. This was a pleasant surprise.
"Trial Taker Xiao Chen, congratulations on breaking the Trial Tower's second floor's record again. This is truly a cause for celebration. It has been a long time since someone broke two records in one day in the Faux God World. "
The little light figure appeared and smiled faintly, giving Xiao Chen a reward.
Xiao Chen opened the booth. Including the hidden reward, there was a total of five thousand Faux God Coins.
This was much less than the first floor's record. After all, the first floor's record remained unbroken for one thousand years. However, the second floor's record was broken one hundred years ago.
"Do I still have any special privileges this time?"
Xiao Chen was rather looking forward to this. Choosing the snowy plains as the venue was crucial for him to break another record on the second floor.
"Naturally, there is. Those who obtain the hidden reward will have one special privilege. Come with me to the third floor."
Light and shadow flashed, and the Item Spirit brought Xiao Chen to the Trial Tower's third floor.
The environment of the third floor was different from the first two floors. It was completely empty. Hundreds of statues appeared in the empty space. Each statue looked very heroic and majestic, each with its own grace. They looked very lively and dignified.
"These statues are all strands of Faux God Flame left behind by Faux God experts. Be it their intelligence or states, they are several times stronger than the combat puppets. When ordinary people come in to challenge, they will choose a statue at random. You can observe and choose freely. "
The little light figure introduced the statues' origins to Xiao Chen.
The Trial Tower's third floor was a hurdle. Aside from the four heaven-defying Sovereign Personages, no one in the Heavenly Alliance could clear the third floor.
It looked like there was a reason for this.
"This time, can I choose freely where I want to fight?"
Xiao Chen asked the little light figure. After confirming this, it would be better for him to choose his opponent.
"Yes." The little light figure nodded to indicate that there was no problem.
In that case, things would be much easier. Xiao Chen looked at the hundreds of statues and felt somewhat dazzled. After some thought, he said, "Lord Item Spirit, please help me eliminate all the statues that are not bladesmen."
If Xiao Chen was not a bladesman, there was no point in challenging him.
As for the Trial Tower, other than the rewards, it also focused on the word 'trial'.
The first two stages were not very helpful to Xiao Chen. He had already comprehended some of the experience the Black and White Eggs wanted to impart.
This was a rare opportunity for the third stage. Naturally, he had to fight with a bladesman.
"As you wish."
With a wave of the little light figure's hand, more than half of the hundreds of statues disappeared, leaving only a few dozen statues.
There were still quite a lot of them. Xiao Chen said after some thought, "Help me eliminate the bladesmen good at the Thunder Dao and the Ice Dao."
If one ran into these two kinds of statues, it was practically impossible to fight. Many cultivators with passable strength could only blame their bad luck if they ran into a statue of the same Great Dao as them.
After another round of elimination, only a dozen or so statues were left.
"Xi Mu, you seem to be one of these statues."
In the palace, the eyes of the old man across Xi Mu lit up as he smiled softly.
Xi Mu nodded and said, "Indeed, I'm one of them. However, if he still wants to break the record, he probably will not choose me."
As Xi Mu spoke, he showed absolute confidence. His statue was definitely the strongest of the remaining statues. He did not believe that Xiao Chen could not tell.
Who knew, right after Xi Mu spoke, Xiao Chen, who was in the Trial Tower, seemed to sense something and made his choice.
"This senior it is."
It was Fiendish Saber Xi Mu!
Inside the palace, Xi Mu and the old man across from him saw everything clearly, immediately stunned.
After a while, the old man across Xi Mu guffawed and said, "Hahaha! It looks like I really can't be too firm with my words."
Fiendish Saber Xi Mu could tell that Xi Mu was very ambitious, only submitting to one person in his life.
Xiao Chen's choice caught Xi Mu off guard, making him feel somewhat embarrassed. Xi Mu said seriously, "To think that he really chose me. I want to see how you are going to clear the third stage."
Inside the Trial Tower, the little light figure was also somewhat surprised at Xiao Chen's choice. After some thought, it said, "This is Senior Xi Mu. Among the hundreds of statues, his strength ranks within the top ten. Since the Trial Tower opened, none of the people who chose him managed to clear it on their first try. Even after challenging him many times, only three people managed to clear it. "
"Is that so?"
When Xiao Chen heard that, he said, "He is stronger than I imagined. Let me break this record, then."
Although Xiao Chen said that, in reality, he was already very open about the record.
With one glance, Xiao Chen could tell that Faux God Xi Mu was the strongest of the remaining statues. The fighting spirit in his heart instantly blazed.
The instant Xiao Chen met the statue's eyes, it felt like they were connected. His saber intent surged involuntarily.
The Tyrant Saber in Xiao Chen's hand trembled slightly, raring to go. He could not help wanting to draw it from the scabbard.
When Xiao Chen felt the Tyrant Saber's fighting spirit, he thought for a while before letting this fighting spirit surge in his heart.
The strongest is the strongest!
It does not matter whether I break the record or not. The opportunity to exchange moves with this senior is something that I can only hope for.
"Are you sure? If you are sure, not only will the record be hard to break, but you might even be defeated on the third floor. Of course, with such a high hidden difficulty, the reward you will obtain will be even higher. However, many super faction members have gathered outside. They all came after hearing the news. If you break two stages in a row and lose on the third, your previous reputation will be ruined. "
Xiao Chen said calmly, "When have I ever cared about the cold eyes of others? I just follow my heart."
"What a fellow! I'm starting to like him." The originally unhappy Xi Mu revealed a smile on his aged face when he heard that.
The other party mocked, "Smile. Let's see if you can still smile when he tramples on you to break the record."
"Liking me is one thing, but you are overthinking if you want to defeat me on your first try."
This touched his bottom line. Faux God Xi Mu withdrew his smile and showed a serious expression.
The little light figure in the Trial Tower looked at Xiao Chen and said, "As you wish, then. Where do you choose to fight?"
"Thunder marsh!"
"Whoosh!"
Light and shadow changed. When Xiao Chen's vision recovered, he was already in a thunder marsh.
The sky was dark, and thunderclouds covered it. Thousands of bolts of lightning spread out like ferocious venomous snakes.
Everything within thousands of miles was a black swamp, and the heavens and the earth were filled with dense lightning-attributed spiritual energy.
Since Xiao Chen grasped the Thunder Great Dao, the place he chose had the advantage of the terrain.
This made it more convenient for him to succeed in his challenge.
"Whoosh!"
A statue descended from the sky and landed in front of Xiao Chen. When the statue appeared, it turned into a human, looking like it came to life.
The Faux God Xi Mu that appeared before Xiao Chen looked like when he was young. He wore loose white robes and looked delicate and handsome. His long hair fluttered as he looked at Xiao Chen, his lips curling up in a smile.
Fiend!
When the other party smiled, his aura immediately changed. The impression he gave Xiao Chen was one word: Fiend.
Becoming a Fiend with a smile!
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. He immediately felt that something was wrong. Ever since the Trial Tower was built, no one had succeeded on their first try. It looked like this was not without reason.
"Let me take a look. To think that you got a thunder marsh.
Your luck is pretty good, "the younger Xi Mu said softly as he looked around.
The statue had a trace of Xi Mu's divine flame and could think for itself, similar to the Black and White Eggs. However, the Xi Mu outside could not control it. Aside from that trace of divine flame, there was not much of a connection between the two.
"However, my Saber Techniques have nothing to do with the environment. Choosing me is fated to be your misfortune. Take this!"
The statue's temper was similar to Xi Mu's, proud and confident. Right after it spoke, it instantly drew its saber.
The moment it drew its saber, a beautiful flower bloomed, bursting out with a resplendent saber light.
At this instant, Xiao Chen looked around and found himself in a vast sea of flowers. The environment had changed drastically.
An illusion? Or a mysterious phenomenon? Or is it purely the other party's Saber Dao?
Xiao Chen could not understand what was going on. He only calmly looked at Xi Mu, who was leaping around like a saucer in the sea of flowers, charging at him.
However, just as the other party was about to charge over, Xi Mu's figure turned blurry in Xiao Chen's eyes. Many afterimages appeared.
Strange …
Since the Trial Tower was built, Xi Mu had only been defeated by three people after many challenges. Before he truly made a move, he already forced Xiao Chen into a passive position.
However, the people outside knew nothing about this.
Seeing Xiao Chen break two records in a row, several people felt excited. They wondered if Xiao Chen could break the record on the third floor as well.
If he broke three records in a row, he would truly be making history.
With the strength that Xiao Chen displayed and the momentum of breaking two records in a row, no one thought that he might fall in the third floor.
