One.
(Book Friend, God of Sunlight, Second Update)
When he regained his vision, he found himself in a valley shrouded in black smoke. Both sides of the valley were bare rocks. The valley stretched for hundreds of miles horizontally and stretched on endlessly vertically. Skeletons were scattered all over the ground.
Occasionally, one or two black bald storks would flip through the skeletons in search of food. They were as lifelike as the creatures in the outside world. However, their auras were gloomy, and their Spiritual Qi was not weak. Spending 30,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to temper himself for a period of time was worth it.
With this thought in mind, Lu Xiaotian landed on the ground. Not long after, a rough grinding sound came from the ground.
Lu Xiaotian turned his head towards the source of the sound and saw a tall bull headed demon walking towards them with large strides. It dragged a huge iron hammer on the ground and its two empty eye sockets were filled with tyrannical intent.
It came pretty quickly. Lu Xiaotian was not surprised. Instead, he was happy. He came to the Immortals' War Pagoda to temper his physical body. He wanted to cultivate the "Limitless Battle Body" and the "Soul Devouring Technique" to a higher level. At this time, his cultivation of Dharmic powers was already at the top of the pole. It would be extremely difficult for him to take another step forward. Only a breakthrough in his physical body could bring him greater strength. At the same time, it would pave the way for him to form his Nascent Soul.
"Good timing!" Everything in the Immortals' War Pagoda was so real. Lu Xiaotian's Qi vibrated, and the clothes on his upper body suddenly burst open, revealing a body that did not look strong. It was slightly skinny and did not even look stronger than an ordinary cultivator. However, only those who had fought with Lu Xiaotian before knew what kind of explosive power was contained in this seemingly ordinary body.
Clang! The bull-headed skeleton demon's hammer was like a giant axe that could split the sky as it came crashing down on Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian did not dodge. He directly punched out. With a boom, the bull-headed skeleton's huge body paused. Lu Xiaotian, on the other hand, slid back dozens of feet and smashed two huge rocks. His feet dragged a foot-long trench in the ground.
Such ferocious strength. Because his physical body was only at the eighth level, Lu Xiaotian chose the demon's level in the soul tablet. However, he didn't expect the strength of this eighth level bull-headed skeleton to be comparable to most of the ninth level demons. It was very powerful.
Lu Xiaotian rubbed his numb arm. The bull-headed skeleton demon had already let out a shrill cry. Its body flashed with black Qi, and it moved dozens of feet and appeared in front of Lu Xiaotian again.
The huge Black Iron Hammer came crashing down.
Lu Xiaotian swallowed the soul essence of a Rank Eight Demonic Python, and his originally tyrannical strength was once again enhanced. The numbness on his arm was swept away. He swung his leg like a python's tail and hit the heavy hammer.
Boom, boom … The entire valley was filled with flying sand and rocks. The bull-headed skeleton demon and Lu Xiaotian's figures were running all over the place. The battle was so intense that if other cultivators saw it, they would inevitably be taken aback.
Although the bull-headed skeleton demon was only at the eighth rank, mainly because it lacked other means of attack, its brute strength and the Black Iron Hammer made its attack power not inferior to that of a ninth rank demon. If an ordinary late Jin Dan cultivator relied on the advantage of a Jindan Core Artifact, they would have the ability to compete with the bull-headed skeleton demon. However, Lu Xiaotian's ability to fight the bull-headed skeleton demon with just his physical body was probably unheard of. Even ordinary body cultivators would not have such endurance.
After the fierce battle between Lu Xiaotian and the bull-headed skeleton demon, the valley was already in a mess.
Sand and rocks were flying everywhere. After all, the bull-headed skeleton demon was only a demon formed by the Spirit Qi in the Immortals' War Pagoda. It did not have intelligence like the demon beasts in the outside world and did not feel fear or pain. It only attacked desperately, wanting to kill Lu Xiaotian out of the Immortals' War Pagoda.
Lu Xiaotian naturally wished for such a trial partner. If the opponent ran away after a few hits, how could he train his body? The Immortals' War Pagoda was really a good place.
The Bull Headed Skeleton Demon did not know fatigue or pain. It was like a machine. However, in this kind of crazy battle, the Bull Headed Skeleton Demon was inevitably injured due to the high intensity of the battle. As time passed, the injuries accumulated more and more.
Bang! When the demon whale's soul essence was almost exhausted, Lu Xiaotian kicked it in the chest. The bull-headed skeleton demon exploded, turning into a pile of white bones. There was no inner core or anything else.
Lu Xiaotian sat down cross-legged. The scenes of the battle with the bull-headed skeleton demon flashed through his mind. Lu Xiaotian absorbed the experience like a sponge. At the same time, his physical body was also constantly recovering its energy. However, before he could fully recover, two more bull-headed skeletons arrived. One was big, and the other was small. The small one only had the strength of a seventh-order monster beast, and the black iron hammer in its hand was also a size smaller. However, the aura of the other one was a bit stronger than before.
It seemed that the pressure in the Immortals' War Pagoda increased gradually. Once an opponent was defeated, the next opponent would be stronger. After all, the operation of the Immortals' War Pagoda required a huge amount of spirit stones every day. It was unrealistic to rely on 30,000 low-grade spirit stones to stay in there forever. Royal Pill City was a big city. Even after thousands of years, it was still unable to fill up such a huge curtain.
Only when the cultivators were killed out of the pagoda could they buy another soul tablet and enter again. This formed a virtuous cycle.
Lu Xiaotian gritted his teeth and swallowed a pill to recover his energy. He then fought the two bull-headed skeletons again.
"Where did that kid go?"
While Lu Xiaotian was fighting the bull-headed skeletons, Nie Bian City was getting impatient. Even when the reward was raised to 300,000 low-grade spirit stones, no one could provide information on that guy's whereabouts.
The place that guy entered was not ordinary. Ordinary cultivators would be killed by the demon beasts guarding the pagoda not long after entering. As time passed, many people did not find anything. Instead, they lost a soul tablet for nothing. After losing their capital, the number of people who were interested naturally decreased.
Zong Yue gritted his teeth and said, "With such a great reward, people will be brave. That guy has yet to come out of the Immortals' War Pagoda. He must be very powerful. I'll add another 300,000 low-grade spirit stones!"
However, as time passed, no one could provide any information on Lu Xiaotian's whereabouts. Nie Bian City had become a laughing stock.
Unknowingly, the reward had increased to 1,000,000 low-grade spirit stones.
Such a high reward had already attracted the attention of a large number of other Golden Core Stage cultivators. One million low-grade spirit stones was more than enough to hire a powerful Golden Core Stage cultivator, not to mention to inquire about information. Just as Zong Yue said, people would be brave with such a great reward.
