Chapter 1133 The Tower of Eternity: The Battle Begins

clang!

On the second day after Lei Xiao and his companion arrived in Wangu City, the ancient chimes echoed in every corner of the city.

Immediately afterwards, countless figures shot up, swarming down on the very center of the Eternal City like locusts.

In the center of the city, there is a bare mountain.

The mountain peak is unremarkable, but at its summit stands a quiet, ancient, and weathered stone tower.

This stone tower is the Eternal Tower, which, according to legend, was built by the Immortal Emperor himself.

"Is this the Eternal Pagoda?"

Lei Xiao and Bao Sheng appeared on a tower surrounding the mountain peak. The former stared at the ancient stone tower and murmured.

"As expected of an immortal emperor, this stone tower, even after thousands of years, still inspires a sense of awe." Venerable Baosheng stared at the stone tower and said slowly.

Even as a Saint-ranking Heavenly Sovereign, he felt a sense of danger when facing this stone tower.

"This Immortal Emperor's strength is indeed even greater than that of a Saint-grade being." Lei Xiao felt the imposing aura of the stone tower, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought to himself.

In the vast world, those at the late stage of the Saint rank are already at the very top of the pyramid, such as Qin Tian, ​​the True Dragon Emperor, and the Undying Lord.

However, the strength of this Immortal Emperor has clearly surpassed that of a Saint-level being, reaching the level of a Dominator, a level that even the original body has not yet achieved.

However, Lei Xiao knew that his true self was already planning to advance to the realm of the Sovereign. In time, once he had gathered the five original Dharma bodies, it would be the time for his true self to soar to the heavens.

Boom!

As Lei Xiao pondered this, the ancient chime of bells rang out once more, and more and more figures descended from the sky, landing around the stone tower.

Lei Xiao looked up, his gaze sweeping across the area before stopping directly in front of the stone tower, where a towering stone platform stood, upon which stood a large number of figures.

At the very front, Lei Xiao saw a familiar figure, none other than Mohe Shang, whom he had met once before.

At this moment, beside Maha Shang, there was a man dressed in a golden robe, none other than Maha Tian, ​​the patriarch of the Maha Ancient Clan.

At this time, Maha Tian may have gradually secured his position as clan leader. In addition, the Maha Ancient Clan's prestige has been rising during this period, and it is poised to surpass the Futu Ancient Clan. Therefore, Maha Tian has also developed an aura of authority without anger.

As Lei Xiao gazed at Maha Tian, ​​the latter seemed to sense something as well, raising his eyes slightly to see Lei Xiao and the other person in the distance.

When his gaze fell upon him, Lei Xiao could clearly feel that the surrounding space seemed to freeze at that moment, and he himself was like an insect frozen in amber, unable to move at all.

Half-step Saint-grade mid-stage, this Maha Tian has actually reached the Saint-grade mid-stage.

Sensing Maha Tian's strength, Lei Xiao's eyes flickered slightly, clearly not too worried about his safety.

"cough!"

Sure enough, the next moment, an old cough suddenly rang out in the solidified space. The sound waves spread and directly shattered the solidified space. The Venerable Baosheng glanced indifferently at the distant Maha Tian.

Seeing the gaze of Venerable Baosheng, Maha Tian frowned slightly, then snorted coldly without saying anything.

"Hehe, it seems that Maha Tian is still holding a grudge about what happened in the past. It's a pity that I hadn't joined Thunder Prison back then and didn't witness the marriage-snatching battle that shocked the world."

The Venerable Baosheng seemed not to be puzzled by Maha Tian's attitude, but instead shook his head with some regret and said.

Upon hearing this, Lei Xiao smiled slightly and then said, "Thank you for your help, Bao Sheng. But it's alright. I will take away the Eternal Immortal Body that I have protected as my precious treasure for so many years. In that case, there might be a big show to be staged."

Upon hearing this, Venerable Baosheng couldn't help but chuckle, "It seems Elder Leixiao is quite confident, already considering that Eternal Immortal Body as his own?"

Lei Xiao smiled and remained silent.

"Is that the person Lei Yu sent to participate in the Eternal Gathering? What is this person's background? Was he sent by Mo Yu to cause trouble, or is he really trying to steal the Eternal Immortal Body?" As they were talking, Maha Tian withdrew his gaze and asked Maha Shang beside him in a deep voice.

"This person is named Lei Xiao, a powerful figure who has suddenly risen to prominence within the territory of the Zhen Dong Prince's Mansion," Mo He Shang introduced.

"This person has a mysterious background. Before his rise, there was no information about him at all. Later, he shone brightly in the fight against the evil race from beyond the realm. As a result, he was personally recruited by the Thunder Emperor Mo Yu and joined the Zhen Dong Wang Mansion. Although he is only at the early stage of the Immortal Rank, it is said that even the top Xuanmo Emperor was defeated by him. He is considered a formidable opponent."

Upon hearing this, Maha Tian frowned slightly: "Are you confident in dealing with him? My Maha Ancient Clan is at odds with Lei Yu. If the Eternal Immortal Body falls into this person's hands, it will be a disgrace to my Maha Ancient Clan for a lifetime."

Upon hearing this, Maha Shang confidently laughed and said, "Don't worry, clan leader. In any case, this time I will become the new master of the Eternal Immortal Body."

His words were filled with strong confidence; after all, compared to his competitors, his success rate was indeed the highest.

"I hope you don't mess it up."

Maha Tian rubbed the stone lion on the pillar before him with his palm, his eyelids slightly lowered, and said in a deep voice, "Of course, even if you fail, no one can take away my eternal body before my eyes, except..."

At this point, Maha Tian couldn't help but glance at Lei Xiao and Bao Sheng Venerable. To be honest, he didn't take either Lei Xiao or Bao Sheng Venerable seriously.

The only thing he feared was the behemoth standing behind Lei Xiao and Bao Sheng Venerable, the Thunder Emperor Mo Yu of the Zhen Dong Prince's Mansion.

"I hope the worst won't happen..." Maha Tian clenched his fists and sighed inwardly.

……

"That one over there, that must be Ye Fantian from the Ye family, right?"

Lei Xiao's gaze turned to the northwest of the stone tower, where he saw a man in a blue robe standing with his hands behind his back on a high ground. He had a handsome face and an elegant demeanor, giving people a gentle and refined feeling.

He was surrounded by many beautiful women, clearly very attractive to them.

"And there's Tianqing Xuan from the Taiqing Heavenly Realm, and Youming Zi from the Youming Palace."

“As expected, they’ve all arrived.”

Feeling the powerful fluctuations of spiritual energy, Lei Xiao felt his blood boiling with a sense of urgency.

It felt as if there was something about these people that was attracting him.

Lei Xiao knew that it was the attraction between the immortal golden bodies.

Boom!

At this moment, the earth seemed to shake, and an ancient roar sounded.

In an instant, countless gazes sensed something, abruptly raising their heads, their burning eyes fixed on the ancient stone tower atop the mountain.

The stone tower's tightly closed doors, under the watchful eyes of those gazes, slowly opened, exuding an aura of vicissitude.

Its interior is dark and deep, exuding an air of vicissitude, ancient and mysterious.

"The Tower of Eternity has opened, but I would like to remind you that the competition inside is fierce. Half of the people will be eliminated on each floor. So, if you want to make it to the end, try your best to drive the others out."

Just then, Maha Tian's calm voice rang out, causing countless people present to shudder and their expressions to become solemn.

"call out!"

As Maha Tian's voice fell, Maha Shang was the first to burst out, transforming into a streak of light that swept across the sky and plunged headlong into the opened stone gate without hesitation.

Swish!Swish!

Following them, Ye Fantian, Tai Qingxuan, and Youmingzi also soared into the sky.

With them taking the lead, the world suddenly became extremely lively.

Then, beams of light shot out like a torrential rain towards the stone gate.

Lei Xiao nodded slightly to Venerable Bao Sheng, said nothing more, and transformed into a streak of light that swept across the sky and rushed into the stone gate.

In just one minute, all 108 figures participating in the Eternal Society entered the stone tower.

As they entered, Maha Tian waved his sleeve, and beams of spiritual energy condensed in mid-air, eventually transforming into hundreds of enormous spiritual energy mirrors, which perfectly highlighted the figures of all those who had entered.

As he rushed through the stone gate, Lei Xiao stood on a small hill in a desolate wilderness, surrounded by an atmosphere of vicissitude and antiquity.

hum!

Just as Lei Xiao was looking around, the space not far in front of him rippled, and then a figure rushed out, its sharp gaze locking onto Lei Xiao.

However, when he saw Lei Xiao's appearance, his expression changed, and he turned and ran without hesitation.

The newcomer appeared to be middle-aged, with strength at the mid-stage of the Spirit Rank, but he clearly recognized Lei Xiao.

The person ranked fifth on the Wan Gu Hui popularity list is not someone that ordinary people can easily deal with.

However, just as he turned around, he saw the space in front of him fluctuate, and Lei Xiao's figure appeared like a ghost, staring at him expressionlessly.

"It seems there's no escaping it today. Seeing is believing, and I'll have to experience the strength of the elders under the command of the Prince of Zhen Dong's Mansion firsthand!"

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and golden light condensed, forming a huge supreme dharma image behind him, radiating mysterious fluctuations with purple-gold light.

That supreme Dharma image was none other than the Immortal Golden Body.

"Immortal Divine Runes!"

The middle-aged man roared, and golden light surged on his immortal golden body. Three hundred divine patterns, resembling giant pythons, condensed and detached, exuding immense power.

"Congeal!"

More than three hundred immortal divine runes condensed together and directly transformed into a purple-gold light blade.

The light blade, radiating murderous intent, cleaved through the void, tearing through space with a whoosh as it slashed down furiously at Lei Xiao.

"break."

However, Lei Xiao merely flicked his finger, and the countless strands of lightning in his hand pierced through space, shattering the purple-gold light blade in the next instant. Then, they appeared outside the immortal golden body and shot down violently.

Click!

Faced with the onslaught of the lightning threads, the middle-aged man's immortal golden body only lasted for a fleeting moment before cracks appeared, rapidly spreading until it finally shattered with a deafening roar.

"Elder Lei Xiao lives up to his reputation, I concede defeat." The middle-aged man said bitterly after being defeated by Lei Xiao in an instant.

Just as his voice faded, a beam of light descended upon this world.

The light shone on the middle-aged man, and spatial fluctuations appeared, as if to teleport him out of the Eternal Tower.

However, the moment he was expelled from the Eternal Tower, a beam of purple-gold light suddenly shot out from between his eyebrows, heading straight for Lei Xiao.

Lei Xiao stretched out his palm and caught the purple-gold light.

This ray of purple-gold light is filled with an aura of immortality and mystery.

"This is... the immortal aura of the Immortal Golden Body."

Lei Xiao's eyes flickered slightly. He was no stranger to this aura. It was almost the essence of the Immortal Golden Body. The more concentrated the immortal aura, the more powerful the Immortal Golden Body would be.

Seeing this, Lei Xiao absorbed it and then rushed to the next level without stopping.

Boom!

On the wasteland, the dazzling, immortal golden body exploded, turning into countless golden specks of light.

puff.

A figure was thrown backward in a disheveled manner, leaving a deep mark on the ground. The next moment, the space around the figure distorted, finally expelling him from the Eternal Tower.

As the figure was sent out of the Eternal Tower, a beam of purple-gold light shot out from between his eyebrows.

Lei Xiao slowly descended from mid-air in the distance, and with a wave of his hand, the purple-gold light swirled in his palm.

Behind it, a huge purple-gold light and shadow appeared, swallowing the wisp of purple-gold light.

As this immortal aura entered its body, the light on the purple-gold giant shadow's body became even deeper and more refined. A rich immortal aura permeated the air, making the purple-gold giant shadow's power even stronger.

"The fourth strand of immortal energy."

Lei Xiao murmured, after winning four out of four matches, his Immortal Golden Body was now 20% stronger than it had been at the beginning.

As Lei Xiao sighed, the surrounding space continued to distort, gradually becoming clear. At this moment, the original wasteland underwent a tremendous change, transforming into towering mountains and overlapping peaks.

Lei Xiao stood atop a green peak, and as the surrounding space stabilized, his gaze immediately turned forward.

On the two distant mountain peaks, two figures appeared.

One of them was at the late stage of the Spirit Rank and did not attract much attention, so Lei Xiao's gaze was more focused on the other person.

It was a man in a golden robe with a sharp face and an arrogant look in his eyes. It was clear at a glance that he was not someone to be trifled with. Moreover, judging from the vast spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from his body, this person had actually reached the mid-stage of the Immortal Rank.

When Lei Xiao spotted the man in the golden robe, the latter also locked onto him at the same time. When he saw Lei Xiao's appearance clearly, he was slightly stunned, and then a half-smile appeared on his face: "I didn't expect to run into Elder Lei Xiao here."

"Who are you?" Lei Xiao asked casually.

"My name is Huang Wu, and I'm ranked sixth on the win rate leaderboard, right behind you." The man in the golden robe sized up Lei Xiao, his expression somewhat scrutinizing.

"Ah."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, his expression calm.

Not far away, the man in the late spiritual stage saw the tense atmosphere between the two men, so he quietly retreated and fled into the distance.

Lei Xiao glanced at him but didn't chase after him, because he could sense that Huang Wu had locked onto him.

"You want to fight me?" Lei Xiao said slowly.

"I just wanted to test your abilities to see if you're even ahead of me." Huang Wu's expression was arrogant, then she smiled.

"What? Elder Lei Xiao is afraid?"
