That very night, as the curtain of night fell, the Bloodshed God Emperor's disciples within the Crimson Stone Courtyard held a banquet to invite Xue Ying.
"Junior Disciple, when we first entered Master's tutelage, we were only given a single command token for the Sealed World Pagoda. You, on the other hand, had two. We are truly envious."
"You're envious and jealous just like that? Didn't you hear Senior Sister Gong Feng say that one portion of the Nine Fruits every year lasts for a thousand years? "
"So what if we're envious? Junior Disciple Dongbo will most likely grasp a grade one Deity Heart within a few thousand years. With his cultivation speed, he should be comparable to a grade one True Meaning Transcendent. I believe it won't be difficult for him to become a stage four World Deity. " The disciples of the Bloodshed God Emperor were all chatting and laughing, with Xue Ying as the center. Some of them were even trying to flatter him.
Dongbo Xue Ying was also busy dealing with the various parties.
Including himself, there were a total of nineteen inner disciples and twenty-five honorary disciples residing in Crimson Stone Courtyard! Most of them had reached a bottleneck and were unable to advance any further. Most of these inner disciples were stage two or three World Deities. As for the honorary disciples, they were all stage one World Deities, with a few being stage two World Deities.
Even though it was difficult for them to advance any further, they still came to Crimson Stone Courtyard for the sake of the absolute art "Mountain World" within the library.
Monarch Green had once relied on this art to heavily injure one of the three ancestors, Pang Yi, with a single punch! Monarch Green's strength and status were higher than that of the three ancestors and the Mysterious North Imperial Empress. In the Deity World, he was the closest to the likes of Blood Blade, the Temporal Island Lord, and the Myriad God Palace Head.
Knowing that the library contained this absolute art, it was only natural that they would come! Even if they could not grasp the complete absolute art, just comprehending some bits and pieces of it would be enough for them to dominate even amongst World Deities.
"Junior Disciple Dongbo, you should know that as long as His Majesty's disciples reside in Crimson Stone Courtyard, they will all have to do manual labor," a sloppy old man said.
"Manual labor?" the gray-robed Gong Feng said, "Junior Disciple Dongbo doesn't need to do manual labor. I've exempted him from it."
"Why not exempt us from manual labor?"
"Every time we come, we have to perform labor."
The inner sect disciples at the side were all talking. The nominal disciples were more low-key, and they all called him "Senior Brother Dongbo."
The disciples of God Emperor had strict rules.
The nominal disciples addressed the inner disciples as Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters! Inner disciples would also address personal disciples as Senior Brother or Senior Sister.
"Labor?" Dongbo Xue Ying was puzzled.
"Junior Brother Dong Bo, every disciple usually has to do manual labor. The one in charge of this is Senior Sister Gong Feng." The sloppy old man beside him grinned.
Dongbo Xue Ying watched from the side.
He could also see that Senior Sister Gong Feng treated the ordinary juniors rather coldly. Only he and the two relatively young stage three World Deities were polite to her.
…
Through this banquet, Dongbo Xue Ying also got to know this group of disciples. Although he was highly sought after, on the surface, he was the weakest among them. He was the only Deity.
The next morning!
A faint mist pervaded the air. Dongbo Xue Ying arrived alone at a tall tower at the corner of the Crimson Stone Courtyard. The tower was so majestic that one could feel a boundless pressure just by looking at it. In fact, he even felt as though he had transformed into the world of the Xia people and was looking at the material world. This tower seemed to be formed from the superimposition of countless worlds. Just by looking at it, Dongbo Xue Ying understood that this Sealed World Tower was far more valuable than his own Crimson Rock Mountain.
He truly deserves to be called the strongest expert in the Deity world. His Majesty, the Bloodshed God Emperor, is truly unfathomable. Just a random Sealed World Pagoda placed here is already an incredible treasure. Xue Ying was inwardly startled. He then stepped through the pagoda door and entered.
As an inner disciple, he could learn any World Deity grade secret technique.
His Majesty had left behind a total of 328 World Deity grade secret techniques in the courtyard. This was many times more than what he had at Crimson Rock Mountain! However, whether it was Dongbo Xue Ying or the other inner disciples, none of them cared too much about World Deity grade secret techniques. What they desired the most was … absolute arts! Even if they managed to learn some bits and pieces of an absolute art, it would still be more powerful than a World Deity grade secret technique.
"Every level of the Sealed World Tower contains a secret technique. When some of these secret techniques are combined, they can form a complete set of absolute arts. "After entering the tower, Dongbo Xue Ying discovered many secret chambers.
He casually chose a chamber and pushed the stone door open.
The chamber was completely empty!
"Weng!"
The stone door closed. Dongbo Xue Ying sat down cross-legged and took out a command token. This token was number 351.
"Let's begin." Dongbo Xue Ying immediately activated the command token.
The command token immediately emitted a bright light.
Hua —
An invisible force immediately wrapped around Dongbo Xue Ying's consciousness, sending it directly into the world of the 351st level.
… …
Dongbo Xue Ying's eyes lit up. In front of him was a vast world. With a single glance, he could see countless sculptures scattered far away. Although they were very sparse, there were at least a million of them in this vast world.
"Master said that if you have two tokens, you can go to the 95th and 351st level respectively to cultivate! So it's the descent of my consciousness. This is similar to the Bloodshed God Palace Battle. " Dongbo Xue Ying was enlightened. There was no danger in the descent of his consciousness. Dongbo Xue Ying looked around and saw that the sculptures in the distance were gradually waking up. The dirt and dust on their surfaces were also falling off.
Dongbo Xue Ying stretched out his hand, and a spear on the ground flew into his hand.
"Mn, what's that?"
Dongbo Xue Ying's eyesight was extremely good. With a single glance, he could see that there were many mysterious patterns on a huge rock in the distance.
"Secret art?" Dongbo Xue Ying immediately had a guess. He already knew that every level of the Sealed World Tower contained a secret art, and it was considered a part of an absolute art.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The sculptures had all awakened, revealing their true appearances. Each of them was clad in thick armor and wielded all sorts of weapons. All of them instantly moved, surrounding Feng Lin.
Dongbo Xue Ying had already memorized the patterns on the huge rock in his heart. His heart was stirred, but at this moment, he still used his spear arts to deal with these sculpture warriors. He did not dare to hide his strength in the Sealed World Tower. He immediately summoned his three Mirage Bodies and activated his Great Chaotic True Force. For a moment, his aura was ferocious as he welcomed the sculpture warriors.
"Shua." The first to arrive was a warrior wielding a long staff. He waved the staff fiercely, but his aura seemed to be very restrained.
"Peng."
A Mirage Body's spear met the staff head on. When the spear collided with the staff, the Mirage Body was directly sent flying! As it was sent flying, the other sculpture warriors also surrounded it. The Mirage Body did not have enough time to defend itself and was completely destroyed by an axe and a hammer.
"Boom boom boom ~"
The sculpture warriors surrounded Feng Lin from all directions. In the blink of an eye, the Mirage Bodies were destroyed one by one. Dongbo Xue Ying's main body was still traversing through the Mirage Body, trying his best to escape. He even switched places with his Mirage Body.
However, he only managed to last for three breaths of time.
"Peng!"
A blade pierced through the Mirage Body and struck Dongbo Xue Ying.
It seemed like an ordinary blade strike, but its power was completely concentrated into his body. Even though he was at the third level of the Time Immemorial Body, his body still instantly exploded.
…
Dongbo Xue Ying's consciousness left his body.
"Hu." The starry-blue-robed Xue Ying, who was sitting cross-legged in the secret room, opened his eyes. He did not dare believe what he had just seen, 'I lost too quickly. These statue warriors are too powerful. Any one of their attacks is far above mine. My body is very good at survival, yet I can't withstand the attacks from their weapons.'
'Something's not right!'
Dongbo Xue Ying was startled. In his mind, the images he saw on the huge boulder appeared, as well as the battle scenes of the sculpture warriors. 'These sculpture warriors, no matter what weapon they use, they seem to be using the same secret technique as the one on the boulder?'
The battle earlier was too intense, and he lost too quickly. Now that he thought about it, he immediately discovered this point.
'Again.' Dongbo Xue Ying immediately grew excited.
