After all, the puppets in the iron tower were not living creatures, nor did they have high consciousness. Their fighting style was very mechanical, and they were not equipped with any powerful magic treasures, so their strength was very limited.
An ordinary Nine Tribulations expert should be able to easily deal with a Nine Tribulations Puppet here. With the help of a powerful magic treasure, he could even kill it. If two Nine Tribulations Puppets attacked together, they could only delay a Nine Tribulations expert for a while. Only when three Nine Tribulations Puppets joined forces could they fight a Nine Tribulations expert to a draw. If magic treasures were not taken into consideration, they could even suppress a Nine Tribulations expert.
However, which Nine Tribulations expert did not have a few powerful magic treasures? Therefore, these puppets could only cause some trouble for the Nine Tribulations experts, but could not bring much danger to them.
The supreme-grade immortal stones on the fourth floor were also stored in the boxes. There were only three boxes, but they were all made of high-quality black iron. Even if a supreme-grade immortal weapon was used to bombard them, it would still take some time to blast them open.
Xiao Lingyu originally wanted to wait for Li You, Gengjia, and other experts to defeat the puppets on the fourth floor. However, the stairs were about to disappear, so he did not dawdle any longer.
After reaching the fourth floor, Xiao Lingyu first felt that the light was a little dim, and then he found that the Devil Qi was surging all around.
At this moment, a demonic banner covered the entire fourth floor like a canopy. A demonic dragon covered in countless black scales was also roaring as it fought with three Nine Tribulations Puppets.
As for the owner of the demonic banner and the demonic dragon, Li You, he was already floating beside a black iron box. He was constantly making seals to bombard it. Every time he struck, the box would shake violently.
The other two black iron boxes were being watched by Gengjia and the Shuntian League Nine Tribulations expert respectively. There were also three Nine Tribulations Puppets beside each of them.
Gengjia and the Nine Tribulations experts of the Shuntian League seemed to be much weaker than Li You in terms of strength. At this time, Li You could basically ignore the three puppets of the Nine Tribulations and concentrate on bombarding the black iron box. However, the two Nine Tribulations experts could only deal with the three puppets of the Nine Tribulations while bombarding the black iron box they were holding.
The three Black Iron Chests already had owners. After Xiao Lingyu and the other experts entered, although no powerful puppets came to attack them, there were no Black Iron Chests for them to open.
For a cultivator like Xiao Lingyu who wielded a divine artifact, opening the black iron chest was definitely a piece of cake. However, the three Ninth Tribulation experts probably wouldn't give him the chance to get close to the black iron chest.
However, peak-grade immortal stones were also very important to Xiao Lingyu. He had to snatch at least one box of peak-grade immortal stones.
Li You's strength was too strong. Although Xiao Lingyu hated him a little, he didn't dare to provoke him easily.
Although the Shuntian League Nine Tribulations experts had some conflicts with Xiao Lingyu, with Anya's relationship, Xiao Lingyu didn't want to offend the Shuntian League.
Therefore, Xiao Lingyu could only set his sights on Taiyi Immortal Sect's First Elder, Gengjia.
Gengjia's relationship with Xiao Lingyu was also very bad. He had always wanted to kill Xiao Lingyu, so Xiao Lingyu didn't need to be polite with him at all.
After having a target, Xiao Lingyu said a few words to Ling 'er beside him and also transmitted a message to Yan Tong.
Then, Xiao Lingyu flew out and went straight for the black iron box that Gengjia was holding.
"You came at the right time!"
Gengjia snorted coldly. He waved his hand and shot out a large ray of light that gathered towards Xiao Lingyu.
At this moment, a wave of strange cold and a wave of scorching heat surged out from Xiao Lingyu's left and right. They were like two dragons that pounced towards the ray of light.
The strange cold and the wave of fire first intertwined. Then, their power increased greatly and scattered the ray of light that was shot out by the Nine Tribulations expert.
Before Gengjia could attack again, Ling 'er and Yan Tong had already charged over with Xiao Lingyu. Gengjia still had to face the attacks of the three Nine Tribulations puppets, so he was basically powerless to stop Xiao Lingyu.
The silver moon broken blade slashed the black iron box seven or eight times before it was split open. The supreme grade immortal stones inside were all collected by Xiao Lingyu in an instant.
Xiao Lingyu then flew back. Gengjia was so angry that he was about to go berserk. He actually took the attacks of the three Nine Tribulations puppets head-on. He shot out two rays of light to blast Ling 'er and Yan Tong away. Then, he flashed to Xiao Lingyu's side.
Although Xiao Lingyu's speed was fast, it couldn't be compared to a real Nine Tribulations expert. Therefore, it could only use the six Demon Suppressing Immortal Orbs to form a line and attack.
Unable to lock onto the opponent, Xiao Lingyu's attack couldn't land. Gengjia's body flashed a few times and dodged all the attacks of the six Demon Suppressing Immortal Orbs. At this time, Yan Tong and Ling 'er also returned to Xiao Lingyu's side. The three Nine Tribulations puppets blocked Gengjia again.
The Nine Tribulations puppets' intelligence wasn't high. Previously, they only judged who was their opponent by sensing the fluctuation of aura on everyone's body. As a Nine Tribulations expert, Gengjia's aura was naturally much stronger than Xiao Lingyu and the others. Therefore, the three Nine Tribulations puppets kept attacking him and wouldn't shift their target to others.
The experts on Xiao Lingyu's side combined together, in addition to the Serpent Devourer Of Heaven and the Ice Soul Heavenly Silkworm, were not weaker than a real Nine Tribulations expert. With the obstruction of the three Nine Tribulations puppets, Gengjia knew that he couldn't kill Xiao Lingyu here. Therefore, after trying once and failing to achieve a breakthrough, he retreated angrily.
Gengjia, who retreated, didn't give up the fight for the supreme-grade immortal stone. He also didn't dare to provoke Li You. Therefore, he rushed to the side of the Shuntian League's Nine Tribulations expert.
"Brother Gengjia, your box was stolen. Do you want to be enemies with me?" The Shuntian League's Nine Tribulations expert was also dealing with the three Nine Tribulations puppets. However, he was about to blast open the black iron box he was guarding. Therefore, he asked angrily.
"Haha, Brother Xun, you're wrong. Before we came here, we already said that everyone will fight for the treasure based on their own abilities. No one wants to be enemies with anyone," Gengjia replied with a laugh.
"Hmph! Do you think you can snatch the immortal stone from me? I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you! "
The Shuntian League's Nine Tribulations expert waved his arm, and a golden chain flew out like a long dragon. Then, in an instant, it tied the three Nine Tribulations puppets together.
The three Nine Tribulations puppets struggled together, causing the golden chain to creak.
However, the quality of the golden chain was extremely high. It wasn't a problem for it to trap the three Nine Tribulations puppets for a while. It was originally one of the Shuntian League's trump cards. Now that the situation was special, he could only use this trump card first.
After freeing himself, the Shuntian League's Nine Tribulations expert could face Gengjia with all his strength. However, Gengjia still had three Nine Tribulations puppets to deal with. Therefore, after some consideration, Gengjia had no choice but to retreat.
The Shuntian League's Nine Tribulations expert then broke open the black iron box and took away the supreme-grade immortal stone inside.
On the other side, Li You also used the cover of the demonic dragon and the Sky-Covering Demonic Banner to break open the box and obtain a sum of supreme-grade immortal stones.
Gengjia's face was as ugly as it could be. Before coming to this iron tower, he had some gains, but they were not worth mentioning. Ordinary immortal weapons were not very useful to him.
The three black iron boxes were all opened, and a golden staircase appeared on the fourth floor.
If the fourth floor already contained supreme-grade immortal stones, then what would the fifth floor contain?
Except for Xiao Lingyu, no one knew what was on the fifth floor, but everyone knew that there must be danger on the fifth floor.
There was a box on the fifth floor that didn't contain immortal stones, but immortal crystals.
One immortal crystal was equivalent to 100 supreme-grade immortal stones, and in the Immortal World, most immortal crystals were in the hands of the top experts in the Immortal World. Even if ordinary cultivators had a large number of supreme-grade immortal stones, they had no place to exchange them for immortal crystals. This showed the value of immortal crystals.
However, although immortal crystals were valuable, one had to have the ability to defeat the puppets on the fifth floor and open the purple gold box that was comparable to supreme-grade immortal treasures.
There were only two puppets on the fifth floor, but they were very strong, so strong that even a Nine Tribulations expert couldn't deal with them.
"I'm afraid that the danger on the fifth floor is not something that any of us can deal with alone. I hope that everyone can work together and get the treasure first," Li You said to everyone.
"Brother Li, your words are nice, but if you get the treasure, wouldn't we have helped you for nothing?" Gengjia said with a lot of opinions.
"If we don't work together, no one can expect to get the treasure. Why don't we make a deal first? If the treasure is obtained by someone, if it's immortal stones, then everyone will share it equally. If it's a treasure, then whoever wants to take it will give everyone enough immortal stones as compensation. How about that? "Li You said again.
"This suggestion is very good." The Shuntian League Nine Tribulations expert nodded and said.
"If anyone who gets the treasure doesn't follow this plan, then the rest of us will have to work together." Gengjia also nodded and said with a hint of threat.
"Don't worry, if it's this old man that obtains the treasure or Immortal Stone, then I absolutely won't go back on my word. Of course, if any other cultivator dares to go back on their word, then they have to consider if they can stop all of us." When Li You spoke these words, he actually glanced at Xiao Lingyu with deep meaning.
Indeed, Xiao Lingyu had swallowed a lot of immortal stones in this iron tower. Their group's harvest was also the biggest.
Xiao Lingyu smiled noncommittally. He wasn't a Nine Tribulations expert, so he didn't say much.
"Everyone, let's go up together. No one can wait below to take advantage of the situation."
As Li You said this, he first looked at the Shuntian League Nine Tribulations expert.
The Shuntian League Nine Tribulations expert understood and walked up the stairs to the fifth floor first. Then, Gengjia, and finally, Li You looked at Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu frowned slightly, but he still led his group up to the fifth floor.
In less than two breaths of time after Xiao Lingyu reached the fifth floor, Li You also led his group up to the fifth floor.
