Chapter 329: Yu Jiao Long Emerges, Is the Energy of the Demon-LockingTower Depleted?

A voice from behind sounded, and the two attendants turned to look.

Only to see a woman dressed in rough and sturdy attire standing behind them.

“Who are you?!”

“This place is a sacred ground of the sect. Outsiders, leave quickly, or I won’t be polite in warning you!”

Both of them spoke sternly, their palms already resting on their magical tools. They didn’t recognize this woman. The mountain gate was hidden and heavily guarded. The fact that she appeared here without a sound indicated that she was not ordinary.

The woman spoke lightly, “You were just discussing me. Don’t you even know who I am?”

“Discussing you?”

The two of them were taken aback by her words.

One of them thought of something, his expression changed, and he stuttered, “Could you be...?”

...

Buzz.

At this moment, the sect token at their waist trembled slightly. It was an instruction from the stationed guardian: “The Eastern Saint is coming out. Everyone, prepare to receive.”

The two finally realized the woman’s identity.

“We pay our respects to the Eastern Saint!”

Looking at the two kneeling hurriedly, Yu Jiao Long’s expression remained indifferent, and she asked, “What were you just saying about the relationship between me and the Shengzi?”Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com

“We apologize to the Eastern Saint!”

“We, humble subordinates, shouldn’t speak recklessly. Please don’t take offense, Eastern Saint!”

The two’s expressions were filled with fear, and they trembled. According to reason, a powerful figure like Yu Jiao Long should take at least half a year to close a door. Who would have thought she would come out so quickly?

Otherwise, even if they were given ten times more courage, they wouldn’t dare to discuss the Eastern Saint behind her back!

This situation was quite dire!

At this moment, the sound of footsteps echoed, and a group of people walked quickly through the mountain gate. Seeing the two guards kneeling on the ground, the leading guardian was taken aback for a moment. He hurriedly approached Yu Jiao Long and led everyone to kneel before her.

“We respectfully welcome the Eastern Saint’s emergence.”

“We respectfully welcome the Eastern Saint’s emergence.”

Yu Jiao Long fell silent, and the air grew quiet.

The guardian looked up. Compared to the terrifying aura when she had just arrived, Yu Jiao Long’s oppressive feeling now was not as strong. She had become profound and reserved.

If before she was like a cold and intimidating sword, now she had sheathed the sword, hiding all her sharpness.

Suddenly, the conversation came to a halt. Several people stopped in their tracks, looking at the woman who had appeared before them. Xing Ke furrowed his brows and said, “Who are you? Why are you blocking our way?”

The next second, a silver spear was pressed against his throat.

“How do we get to the Kodo City?”

“...”

Inside the Black Absolute Death Ground, within the Demon Sealing Tower.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Shi emerged from the state of profundity, gradually restoring his consciousness.

He slowly opened his eyes, and purple light radiated from his pupils. The air was filled with an intense imperial pressure.

The black fragments suspended in the air fell into his hand.

“I didn’t expect that comprehending the Primordial Great Dao would still be able to activate the star chart,” Su Shi was somewhat surprised.

The fragments of the Nine Ancient Bells he obtained this time brought him significant benefits. Not only did they mend the gap in his dantian’s small bell, but they also enhanced his understanding of the Great Harmony of Mixed Nine Elements. He had broken through to a higher level once again shortly after his previous breakthrough.

Moreover, the star chart’s rotation speed had increased. The radiant light of the central Violet Emperor Star illuminated the other stars, and the abundant stellar power continuously nourished his meridians, nurturing Su Shi’s vitality and spirit.

It was constantly strengthening his essence.

At this moment, a system prompt sounded in his ears:

【By passing the third level test of the Demon-Locking Tower, affecting the development of the plot, you have gained 50 plot points.】

Passing the first level test earned him 30 plot points, the second level earned 40 points, and adding this level’s reward, he now had 120 plot points.

And for the Locking Demon Tower with a total of twelve levels, this was just the beginning.

“If I can reach the tower’s pinnacle, could I acquire the complete Nine Ancient Bells?”

Su Shi’s anticipation grew stronger.

However, just as he reached the staircase, ready to ascend to the fourth level, an invisible wall of air blocked his path. “Hmm?”

Su Shi’s brows furrowed.

Could it be that this level’s trial hadn’t ended?

Then, everything before his eyes went dark. He found himself once again involuntarily turning amidst a world-shifting swirl. When he opened his eyes again, he realized he was standing outside the black tower.

Yu Ren’er and Wang Que stood next to him, looking perplexed.

Evidently, they had been “expelled” by the Demon-Locking Tower.

“What’s going on...”

Wang Que’s words were cut short as the key lodged in the Demon-Locking Tower’s gate flew up into the air. Reflexively, he caught it, but he noticed that the black tower had lost its luster, seeming to have turned into an ordinary stone.

Even when inserted again, there was no response. Su Shi furrowed his brow, “Could it be that the energy of this Demon-Locking Tower has been depleted?”
