124 Number two on the rankings after Luo Xin
[Who are you? How dare you to put your sights on our young master?]
Looking at the terrifying figure that had appeared from nowhere heading straight for the young man in the group, the guards started shouting angrily.
Looking at the terrifying aura above them, seemingly pressing down on their young master, the men did not seem to be afraid at all, just slightly solemn.
The scariest thing about this aura was that their minds were being targeted and
felt as though a huge world was being slowly lowered on them. But the group of men did not retreat at all but moved closer together forming a defensive circle around their young master.
The man being protected had a fan and unlike one would expect, he did not start shaking or cowering in fear but just observed all this indifferently.
Those that were not being targeted however only managed to get out of this situation where their fists were clenched after standing together.
It seemed as though they had obtained some confidence, and the feeling of being in an ice cave earlier was no longer bothering them.
Looking at the guards whose kegs and hands no longer trembled but seemed to be ready to take on the enemy, the young man smiled contently.
.....
[Indeed better than even most of the trash that has entered this cave. Pity, if only my strength could break through the fourteen floors in the tower, perhaps a chance at joining the academy might also fall on my lap.] The man was lost in thoughts even directly disregarding the ghost-like thing attacking him.
If the bloody figure knew it was being treated like some ghost perhaps he could go mad.
He had suffered from Luo Xin and now met another crazy one from the oceanic continent.
The man was ranked second only to Luo Xin despite being so close to breaking through half steps primal lord.
The oceanic continent was not a continent on a planet. It seemed like a huge continent standing in space.
The number of individuals that had come in contact with Wang seemed to have entered this hidden space through the same entry point.
But at the same time, it indicated that other regions could also have people coming in not from the Oceanic continent.
In the Oceanic continent just like the Origin tower, it seemed some other towers were set up and combat power was measured using it.
The realm and floor one was at could determine their ranking, and to some extent, it seemed age was important.
In this sense, all the towers seemed to have some similar challenges on corresponding floors or one could say the tower might be one and have different other dimensions opened in many regions, allowing for one to measure their combat power.
At the same time, rankings are created from the moment one takes the s liberty to participate.
In a way, without testing, one couldn’t be included in the lists.
Being the second level is not easy, as it indicated the combat power of number two was probably very terrifying on the thirteen level.
In that case, others on the same floor might not be able to take several hits from him without being defeated.
The existence of the tower for as long as one could remember has been used to rank powerhouses.
But that can’t be said to he only was to determine the ranks.
Perhaps other means are also added, in that case, it is indeed not surprising the second place views others below him as mediocre.
At the same time, those that challenge the tower, might not go all out but just use enough combat power to reach a certain level of ranking.
It is normal after all some people prefer to keep a low profile and improve their strength and only appear when opportunities arise that demand them to showcase their might.
Seeing the person he was going after not even looking at him, the blood-colored figure become enraged.
Forget that girl back then grab his hard work taking It into her reward.
He had made a wedding dress for others, and still had an expression of success until the moment he was escaping.
Chances were all gone and now another one was not even bothering to observe him.
The figure roared in anger and moved toward the teenager, but the guards seemed to have stimulated some kind of formation.
The group managed to push the momentum back but the figure seemed to be not worried, just that the expression on his face was slightly unwilling.
The genius in front of him was the best option among the group and the figure was not sure when it could get another chance to capture.
The time limit on it was also running out, this getting itself.
After some hesitation, the figure eventually seemed to have spit out some blood, and it seemed to have some tinge of golden.
The red color filled the space all around, the void was also isolated from this action.
The figure seemed to have become majestic but only if one knew the amount of essence being burned to accomplish it.
The bloody aura was currently spreading making it that between the heavens and the earth, some force was gathering from all around and being infused into the formation.
Wisps of hideous faces could be seen slowly taking shape in the reflected bloody curtain cutting off from the outside world.
In rhe void, it could be seen that the souls of those that had entered this place and died at the moment were being dragged towards the curtain.
Despite this, the figure did not seem to relax and was still adding some methods to make it even more ferocious.
The guards of the young man seemed to feel their bodies weakening while at the same time huge oppression from before came back even more terrifying.
The guards no longer could even make a move, they were cut off from heaven and earth.
Seeing the situation of the group, despite being disheartened, the figure couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
At this moment everything was under its control again.
And for this group, it was not a rush, after it took over the young man’s body it could slowly deal with them to get revenge for the way of talking to him.
[Jie! Jie! Jie! Jie! Jie!..]
A huge laugh attracted even the attention of the young man.
[After managing to take over the young man, you guys are just right for me to vent my anger. I shall peel off your skin slowly and torture you to my satisfaction before going to locate that witch.]
How could he forget Luo Xin, after, all he suffered greatly from her?
Using this technique just now was to allow himself to slowly take over the body in a relaxed manner, but it had drained almost all the remaining blood essence and vitality.
To get itself a host the hole cards, it had saved now had been used
[No matter how you struggle you can’t break through from this formation.
You are, you are bound to become my prey today! This cave is going to be my opportunity for blood sovereignty to rise again. Hahaha!...]
The momentum was still there but it was empty momentum that couldn’t be supported for long.
The power of the formation had indeed managed to isolate as well as imprison everyone, well except for one figure.
Even the terrifying coercion being put upon them by the formation made them slump to gr ground.
Looking around, the figure stopped laughing as it couldn’t see its target. The most important piece of its plan had suddenly disappeared.
Looking around, it couldn’t even locate the young man that it was targeting at all.
[Did you hide from me? Humph! Don’t even think about it. In this place I’m a god!]
Looking around and even using perception he couldn’t find the young man and despite being anxious, the figure still spoke confidently.
[I want to see how long you can hide from me. I always get what I want, no one can stop me!] The figure seemed to have used some other methods making the hideous figures on the blood curtain seem to have come alive.
But this change didn’t last long since the area suddenly started to crumble and when the figure found the young man he was standing not fast away from it looking at it mockingly.
[Are you talking about me?]
Hearing this, the blood-colored figure already knew it was not good at this moment.
Looking at the contempt on the young man’s face, he was very angry.
[You..!] The figure even failed to speak what it was thinking at this time.
He was still holding a fan but it had changed into a shape of a wooden cane, that seemed to be injected into some idol.
The cracks on the idol continued until it seemed to be crumbling, but the figure in the sky collapsed from the air with a scared expression.
The hideous idol was the core of the formation, and when it was discovered the figure seemed to be still puzzled about how he did it.
He could still see the young man had not been injured in any way.
But he was not treating him any differently from before.
[Impossible. How did you find it? Who are you? ] The figure asked several questions at once, but the young man turned a deaf ear.
He picked up the cracked idol and using his hands pressed together making it crumble completely.
[Why have you been buzzing in my ear all this time? You disturbed my rest and thinking!] As he spoke the cane poked towards the bloody figure but it discovered it couldn’t move.
