They went to a few medicine shops and went on a shopping spree. Little Green's backpack was filled with medicine.
A single immortal pill could increase one thousand points of spiritual energy. Who knew how long it would take to cultivate? Although it was impossible for Little Green to make immortal pills now, with Little Green's talent, Lu Chen would naturally spare no effort to nurture him. He did not care about spending a few hundred thousand gold coins.
After that, Lu Chen bought some Second Turn Mixed Energy Pills and Blood Pills. He did not actually use many of these pills. A hundred or so pills would probably last him a long time.
Mountain Strength and the others also bought some supplies.
After purchasing, everyone headed to Mo City's "army camp."
"The average person in the city is not much better than us. We still have to ask the people in the army. They are more experienced and knowledgeable," Mountain Strength explained.
After walking for a short distance, everyone saw a wall in front of them. There were many people surrounding it.
"Hmm? What's going on? Today is not the day of the test. Why are there so many people? "Cutthroat asked curiously.
The army camp was the most important part of Mo City. It took up almost a third of Mo City. It was surrounded by walls, forming a "city within a city."
In Mo City, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, such a large area was given to the army. It was obvious how important the army was.
"Brother Mountain, does the Third Heaven mean that everyone is a soldier?" Lu Chen suddenly thought of this question.
Mountain Strength nodded. "Yes. As long as you enter the Third Heaven, the system will assign you a military rank. The higher your military rank, the more frequently you can exchange for items and the better the items. In the Third Heaven, military rank is a synonym for status, status, and strength."
"Even those who do business in the city have military ranks. They collect resources and sell them in order to increase their strength."
Three Lives added, "It's not just us. It's the same for the other races. Frenzie, you can basically understand that the Third Heaven is a world where all races fight."
Lu Chen nodded. "I see. Then how do we enter the Fourth Heaven?"
"It's still the Skysplit Tower, but … the Skysplit Tower is a place that all races fight for. Now, it's the Sky Demon Race's territory. Their people can enter the tower as they please, but the other races have to go through their blockade before they can enter the Skysplit Tower."
Chasing Cloud shook his head. "Not only do we have to deal with the Sky Fiend race, but the Skysplit Tower is actually located in the middle of the Myriad Race Battlefield. With the humans' present strength, unless all the powerful factions join forces to escort us, we will be surrounded before we even reach the Sky Fiend race's territory."
Frost Dance also sighed, "Nameless, didn't you ask me about the situation of the five major forces? No matter how they fight, there is an agreement between them that the five major forces will definitely abide by."
"Agreement?" Lu Chen looked at Frost Dance strangely.
"That's right. Every half a month, the five great forces will organize a martial arts competition to choose the strongest person. After two and a half months, they will form a small team of five people. After three and a half months of training, the five great forces will join forces to escort them into Tong Tian Tower."
"Only five?"
"Yes, the Third Heaven of Tong Tian Tower is a five-man dungeon! In other words, only five people can attempt it together. "
The Third Heaven Domain BOSS was definitely stronger than the Spiritual Martial Apothecary, but only five people could attempt it. Even if they entered Tong Tian Tower, the difficulty of the dungeon would be much higher than the First or Second Heaven.
"Then can we participate in the martial arts competition?"
Ice Bear nodded, "Yes, the martial arts competition is open to all human players. As long as your military rank reaches the" Titled Marshal ", you can participate."
Lu Chen was shocked. Titled Marshal? Mountain Pulling Strength had been in the Third Heaven for more than a year and was only a small militia captain. How long would it take for him to reach the rank of Marshal?
Lu Chen had a rough idea in his heart.
The Third Heaven of Tong Tian Tower was located in the "Myriad Race Battlefield" where the battles were the most intense. It was a place that military strategists had to fight for, and the competition was extremely intense.
Every race did not wish for other races to enter the higher Heaven Domain. They would think of ways to prevent other races from entering Tong Tian Tower. If they wanted to enter Tong Tian Tower, they would have to break through many obstacles.
With the decline of the human race, just getting close to Tong Tian Tower was extremely difficult. Unless several major forces joined forces to help, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens!
In order for several major forces to join forces to escort them, the prerequisite was to obtain first place in the martial arts competition.
If people from other races wanted to participate in the martial arts competition, they would have to reach the rank of "Titled Marshal". There were two conditions to increase one's military rank. One had to reach a certain number of military merits and pass the corresponding military rank test.
"This seems a little troublesome …" Lu Chen shook his head, "Forget it, let's save Mu Xuan first."
As they spoke, the group had already arrived in front of the military camp's city wall.
There was a long queue in front of the city gate. Mountain Pulling Strength asked around, and indeed, they were here to participate in the advancement test.
"Eh? There's a notice over there. Let's go take a look! "Monkey King's eyes were sharp. He noticed a notice on the city wall, and the group gathered around it.
"Recently, the Demonic Beasts have been rampant and have frequently launched sneak attacks on our surrounding villages. In order to deal with the strange movements of the Demonic Beasts, the Mo City Garrison has activated the following emergency measures."
"1. The military rank test that is held once a week will be changed to once every two days."
"2. The cooldown for the redemption of the Quartermaster of the Regular Army will be reduced by 50%."
"3. The Mo City Garrison will provide 20% military merits for the redemption of military merits for the Regular Army soldiers."
"4. The small teams that have lost their strongholds will be temporarily incorporated into the 'Militia' and will be stationed in the temporary camp outside Mo City. However, they will not enjoy the benefits of the Regular Army."
"Damn, the benefits of this measure are all for the Regular Army." Big Beard was rather dissatisfied, "They're only letting us live outside the city. If the Demonic Beasts attack, we'll just be cannon fodder!"
"They're giving all the benefits to the Regular Army, and they're still using us as cannon fodder. How disgusting!"
Mountain Pulling Strength shook his head, "Otherwise, why would so many people rush here to take the test? If you want to develop in the Third Heaven, you have to first become a Regular Army soldier."
Not long after, Mountain Pulling Strength found a soldier guarding the city.
"Old Mountain!" That person saw Mountain Pulling Strength and warmly welcomed him.
"Old Five!" Mountain Pulling Strength also smiled.
"That's Brother Shan's former teammate." Cut Throat introduced him to Lu Chen from behind, "Brother Shan takes care of us too much. Many of his teammates have mixed into the Regular Army, and he's even a small team leader."
Lu Chen smiled slightly. Looking at the way Mountain Pulling Strength was distributed, it made sense that his leveling was slow.
After Mountain Pulling Strength and "Five Mountains and Storms" chatted for a while, he asked about the Heaven's Punishment Tower.
"Heaven's Punishment Tower? Old Mountain, why are you asking about this? " Five Mountains' tone became somewhat serious, and his eyebrows were tightly knitted. He looked at Mountain Pulling Strength in astonishment, "That place is not a place where ordinary people can go."
Mountain Pulling Strength did not elaborate and asked, "I'm just asking. Old Five, is there anything special about that place?"
"Of course it's special!" Five Mountains said, "The Heaven's Punishment Tower is a forbidden area! The people locked up inside are not simple people, and there are even Level Four Heavens! "
"What! Level Four Heavens? "
"Yes, the Heaven's Punishment Tower has a total of nine floors, and each floor is guarded by a super strong Boss. From the moment you enter the Heaven's Punishment Tower, you will have to endure a strong Heaven's Punishment, whether it's the people locked up there or the people who trespass into the Heaven's Punishment Tower!"
"Under those circumstances, even an army would be completely annihilated if they went in!"
"Hiss … What kind of Heaven's Punishment?" Mountain Pulling Strength asked.
"I heard that there was once a Marshal who could not tolerate his lover being tortured by the Heaven's Punishment Tower. He entered the Heaven's Punishment Tower to save her. That Marshal's HP was about ten million, but … he did not last more than 30 seconds!"
"What! A Marshal could not last more than 30 seconds? "
"Yes, that was the first floor! The higher the floor of the Heaven's Punishment Tower, the stronger the Heaven's Punishment Tower! "
On the side, Lu Chen was silent.
The place where Mu Xuan was locked up was the ninth floor of the Heaven's Punishment Tower …
But that was not what he was concerned about.
As long as one was in the Heaven's Punishment Tower, they would be punished by the Heaven's Punishment Tower?!
That meant that Mu Xuan had been tortured for months?!
