Chapter 3671 A Dying Fox?

"Then who completed a Hidden Pagoda?"

Shirley asked, causing Dewzai to shrug with a twitch, "Do I look like I know?"

"..."

Shirley had no comeback to that as she saw the sorry state Dewzai was in.

Still, how could there be such a coincidence? Shirley tried to think for a bit before she threw it out of her window.

"Oh well, you stay here and control your energy enough to impede the remnant energy and allow your body to heal naturally in order to not die sooner. Or try your luck by using the Escape Talisman, although I don't necessarily think that it will lead you to the Crystal Gate, where you can leave. Meanwhile, I'll go complete the Ninth Hidden Pagoda..."

"Ahaha~" Dewzai wryly laughed, her voice low yet laden with pain, "You would never be able to finish the trial."

She coughed up some blood, although she looked smug for some reason.

"You think so?" Shirley raised her brows.

"Your Icefire Laws is indeed powerful, but it's not an insult to you..." Blood leaked from Dewzai's lips as she tried to sit up, "I don't think anyone is capable of finishing the Ninth Hidden Pagoda's trial..."

"That fires me up~"

Shirley grinned as her phoenix eyes lit up. She clenched her fist and looked at the same Hidden Pagoda, wondering what kind of trial awaited her.

"Don't you want to know the specifics?"

"If I asked, it wouldn't be fair anymore."

Shirley giggled, causing Dewzai to raise her head and stare at Shirley in silence.

If she did that, considering that everyone here possessed karmic attacks, she was as good as dead or could even be imprisoned if they had certain techniques to seal her.

An Emperor-Tier Soul like hers was worth more than it would go for.

After some time, she gazed at the Ninth Hidden Pagoda, knowing that Shirley would be despairing right about now.

========

*Gasp!~*

A white-robed woman with crimson hair and icy-blue strands severely gasped for breath, seemingly having overused her energy all at once.

She still had a great amount of energy left, but the energy she let out all at once had used up thirty-five percent of her energy, yet when she looked at the foe in front of her, a peculiar statue that seemed no more than six feet two inches tall, she couldn't believe she could break it even after using the most destructive technique she possessed.

"Who are you...?"

Shirley uttered while still gasping for breath.

However, the lifeless statue with no sentience whatsoever, seemingly resembling a person of some legends, had nothing to say to her.

The statue stayed still, standing tall on a circular platform like it was a piece on a board while its hands were clenched behind its back.

"You seem eerily similar to what my darling described..." Shirley's expression turned amused.

However, it didn't seem like she had fun, "Don't tell me you're constructed after the Celestial Transcendent?"

"..."

There was still no response, causing Shirley to clench her teeth.

Whatever technique she conjured, it came back at her, with a prowess that exceeded even hers. With the way this trial was designed, Shirley was starting to feel the Ninth Hidden Pagoda that allowed only a single person to enter at a time, was unbeatable.
