#2411 - Emergent variables
The third level of the Bronze Pagoda was roughly the same as the previous two in terms of layout, only the internal space was larger.
Especially the challenge area, which was twice as large as the second level.
"Congratulations to those fortunate descendants who have passed the challenges of the first and second levels to reach this place. It is enough to show that you are outstandingly talented and are amazing talents of later generations.
This Bronze Pagoda contains peerless immortal treasures. As long as you pass the challenge, you can obtain them and gain opportunities for good fortune.
Although these peerless immortal treasures are not of high grade, they are of very good quality.
If the geniuses of advanced cultivation civilization worlds come here and obtain opportunities, they can improve their strength; if cultivators from the God-Ancient World come to this place and obtain opportunities, they can help the God-Ancient World resist the end-of-world torrent.
No matter which world you fortunate descendants come from, I hope you can continue to work hard, seize all opportunities for good fortune, and display your brilliance."
The voice of order echoed in the third-level space, ethereal and majestic.
Jun Wuxie and Queen Rhine walked to the front of the challenge area, looking at the introduction on the bronze stele there.
The voice of order sounded again.
"For the third-level challenge, the fortunate descendants will each face a golden guardian.
The golden guardian will summon two silver guardians, and each silver guardian will summon two bronze guardians.
Each challenger must kill one golden guardian, two silver guardians, and four bronze guardians to complete the challenge.
If you quit the challenge midway, the challenge target will restore full immortal power, and the next challenge will start from scratch.
Good luck to you!"
"This…"
Queen Rhine was stunned when she heard the challenge rules.
"How could the Bronze Pagoda's challenge test be arranged like this? If it goes on like this, how many guardians will we have to face in the next few levels?"
She felt incredible. Was setting up the challenge like this meant to prevent future generations from passing?
If so, what was the point of leaving these peerless immortal treasures behind?
According to this rule, one level after another, it's like a matryoshka doll. After a few more levels, the number of guardians faced will reach an astonishing number!
"It doesn't matter, you just need to protect yourself.
Wait until I kill all the guardians, and then I will come to help you."
"Lord Jun, Rhine is just worried that she won't be able to hold on in the later levels, distracting Lord Jun."
"There's nothing to worry about. I will definitely protect you to the top of the pagoda and seize all the opportunities for good fortune here.
Let's go, let's go in."
After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he took Queen Rhine's hand and entered the challenge area.
Instantly, the golden guardian wearing golden armor inside revived, and the Dao patterns bloomed with brilliant light.
Inside the golden guardian's hollow eye sockets, golden flames like two golden lanterns ignited.
A powerful aura swept out, spreading like waves.
Almost at the same time, Dao pattern symbols appeared on both sides of the golden guardian.
Void passages evolved within the symbols, and two silver guardians walked out.
The silver guardians each summoned two bronze guardians.
Instantly, the pagoda guardians rushed towards Jun Wuxie and Queen Rhine respectively.
Jun Wuxie directly displayed his peak state, fully activated the six forbidden techniques, and sublimated to the limit.
The River of Time and Mortal Dust surged beneath his feet, with thousands of waves, rolling up waves and blooming the brilliant light of civilization.
Three thousand floating worlds, ten thousand feet of mortal dust, all kinds of visions, all emerged.
The Three Thousand Stack Killing Technique was used, and Jun Wuxie attacked.
Clang—
Dragon roars resounded, echoing in the third-level space of the ancient pagoda, reverberating in the challenge area.
Sword dragons filled with the aura of time and mortal dust soared from the long river, shuttling through, stirring up shocking sword intent, and killing towards the rushing guardians.
The guardians, who were immune to all laws, instantly collapsed their immortal techniques, divine powers, and visions the moment they were hit by the sword dragons.
The sword dragons were destructive, indestructible, impossible to break, and unstoppable!
Its power was much stronger than when it was on the second level.
Even the golden guardian of this third level could not withstand it. It was directly broken through the immortal technique by the sword dragon, hit the body, and flew out.
Bearing this blow, the sword energy poured into the body, instantly obliterating most of the majestic immortal power in its body.
The golden guardian roared angrily, got up, burst out with immortal power all over his body, and slashed with a halberd, the halberd light cut through the sky, illuminating the entire sky of the challenge area!
The silver guardians and bronze guardians, on the other hand, exhausted the immortal power in their bodies the moment the sword dragon passed through them, and died on the spot, turning into a rain of light all over the sky.
The golden guardian's halberd light was murderous and soaring to the sky, carrying his blazing anger, but it was easily torn apart by the sword dragon.
The golden guardian was penetrated again, his entire body stiffened, and then cracks appeared all over his body, scattering into a rain of light.
Only two strikes, the challenge target was completely destroyed. It was completely crushing, destructive, and unstoppable.
Jun Wuxie put away the four bronze armors and looked at Queen Rhine's battlefield.
He did not attack immediately, but watched quietly.
It was not until Queen Rhine could not hold on that he stepped on the River of Time and Mortal Dust, killed him, and urged the Red Dust Sword Qi to condense into a sword dragon, crushing everything, and instantly solved her challenge target.
Rhine looked at him with blurred eyes.
Lord Jun is really too strong.
During the second level, Lord Jun's Divine Forbidden Domain was able to break through, and he is much stronger than before!
"I only took action now, are you blaming me in your heart?"
Jun Wuxie casually took over the four bronze armors.
Queen Rhine shook her head gently, "Rhine knows that Lord Jun wants Rhine to accumulate more combat experience."
"The Queen is really smart."
Jun Wuxie smiled faintly, and then took her to the bronze platform opposite the challenge area.
"Congratulations to the fortunate descendants for completing the first pass of the third level challenge. Please go to the bronze platform, open the bronze box to receive the reward.
The fourth-level passage is open, and the fortunate descendants can go to challenge at any time!"
The voice of order echoed in the third-level space.
Jun Wuxie opened the bronze box, and two waterfall-like special vitality rushed out, and then hung down, enveloping him and Rhine.
"What a pure special vitality!"
Rhine, bathed in the special vitality, exclaimed, only to feel comfortable all over, and every pore stretched open.
"Special vitality is naturally extraordinary."
Jun Wuxie sat down cross-legged, and casually constructed a time symbol array, enveloping himself and Rhine.
The challenge reward obtained on this level is a special vitality to improve the realm.
Unfortunately, the amount and grade of vitality are based on the challenger's own realm.
Even considering that the demand for special vitality will be greater and the grade will be higher for amazingly talented people.
However, Jun Wuxie's cultivation method is too special, and his demand is too great.
Originally, for someone in his realm, these special vitality quantities and qualities could break through several heavenly positions!
However, these special vitality entered his body, but he could not break through a heavenly position.
The stars in the cave sky star sea are gradually increasing, but he is very clear that it is impossible to reach the saturation level at all.
After melting all the special vitality, there is still a lot of distance from the critical point of breakthrough.
On the other hand, Rhine, the special vitality she obtained is completely enough for her to break through the realm and step into the realm of the Three Worlds Eternal God.
This is still because the realm of the Eternal God is too special, and the consumption is many times more resources than the resources needed to cultivate ordinary realms, otherwise it would not only break through one realm.
Jun Wuxie only took a few days to melt these special vitality.
After all, it is special vitality, which is incomparably time-saving.
Rhine is still in cultivation, and the realm continues to improve.
He had nothing to do, so he took out the Qiankun Source Stone and began to absorb the Qiankun Source Power inside to cultivate the Yuanshi Symbol Dao.
It has been a long time since I practiced the Symbol Dao.
The Yuanshi Symbol Dao realm still remains in the Seventh God Realm, which is several major realms behind the martial arts realm.
Dozens of days later, Queen Rhine broke through the realm and stepped into the realm of the Three Worlds Reincarnation.
Jun Wuxie also withdrew from cultivation.
Cultivating the Yuanshi Symbol Dao takes time.
Although the source power in the Qiankun Source Stone is very pure, he only improved a few small realms in just a few dozen days.
"The Yuanshi Symbol Dao is not urgent, I will find time to practice it later."
He withdrew the time symbol array and was about to get up, but the third-level space of the Bronze Pagoda suddenly shook.
"What's going on?"
Queen Rhine looked around in shock. It was shaking violently here, and she could feel that the entire Bronze Pagoda seemed to be shaking.
"It seems that there has been a change."
Jun Wuxie got up, helped Rhine, and looked around.
"The fortunate descendants on the third level, please pay attention. The Bronze Pagoda has suddenly encountered a change. The power of the Emperor forcibly penetrates the pagoda's barrier of the Dao, opening the channel space and sending people to descend!
Now, there are geniuses from outside the realm invading above the fourth level!
As the guardian of order of this pagoda, I should maintain the order here.
However, the Emperor's power is extremely strong. If I forcibly seal the channel and confront it, I am afraid that the peerless immortal treasures will be damaged in the aftermath."
"How could this happen!"
Queen Rhine was stunned, unexpectedly such a thing would happen.
"Order Manager, these geniuses from outside the world are cheating!
I want to know, will their realm be suppressed when they descend to the upper levels?"
"Fortunate descendants, you can rest assured.
It is inevitable that they will be suppressed.
Once they descend to this pagoda, I will repair the barrier of the Dao.
However, although they are suppressed by the rules of order, their strength has skyrocketed because they are contaminated with a little bit of Emperor's breath.
If you encounter them, you will most likely have a narrow escape from death.
You two are amazingly talented and should not fall due to this change.
Since things have come to this, I advise you to leave as soon as possible. You can only temporarily give up the opportunities on the upper levels.
If they cannot pass the challenge, they will eventually leave.
At that time, you can come back, and I will allow you to directly start the challenge from the fourth level!"
"What if they pass the challenge?"
Queen Rhine was a little angry and felt very unwilling.
The opportunities within this tower, whether for Lord Divine or myself, are rare and hard-won. How could we abandon them directly due to this sudden change?
“If they pass the challenge, it can only be said that the peerless immortal treasures are not meant for you…”
The voice of Order let out a sigh.
“Is this fair?”
Queen Rhine said coldly, “The challengers here are actually relying on the power of Emperor Realm experts!
If that's the case, what's the point of having rules?
Since you said that after they descend, you can repair the barrier of the Dao.
Then why don't you take action to kill these extraterritorial prodigies who provoke the rules of order, or erase the Emperor's aura from their bodies!”
“This… alas…”
The voice of Order was very helpless but did not offer an explanation.
“Rhine, forget it. Don't say these things to him, it's useless.”
Lord Wushuang stopped Queen Rhine, who was about to continue questioning the Order Manager, “Although he is the Order Manager, he is not a physical body.
His current state is just a wisp of consciousness derived from the rules of order left by the strong experts of the past.
He is right. If he forcibly resists, he does not have the ability to protect the peerless immortal treasures left here.
Therefore, he would rather the immortal treasures fall into the hands of those cheating extraterritorial prodigies than let them be destroyed.
And if he were to kill those people, it would not be in accordance with the will of the strong expert who left this tower back then.
After all, those prodigies also came in to seek opportunities.
As for erasing the Emperor's aura from their bodies, it would also be considered interfering with the descendants who came to seek opportunities, which is not allowed by the will of the tower's owner.
The Order Manager here can only act according to his will.
Although it is rigid, there is no way around it.
After all, the will left behind in the past is a dead rule, and that strong expert did not leave behind a divine thought, so he cannot respond flexibly.”
“You are right.” The voice of Order did not deny it, “Although it is not what I want, it is better for someone to obtain the immortal treasures than for them to be destroyed.
Although their methods have broken the rules, they may still be able to resist the apocalyptic torrent in the future if they obtain the immortal treasures. In any case, it gives more hope to future generations.
As for you, I can only express my apology.”
Queen Rhine looked angry.
She was very unwilling and reluctant to give up the opportunities and good fortune on the upper levels, but she still pulled Lord Wushuang to leave without hesitation.
“Lord Divine, let's leave here.
Even without the opportunities and good fortune here, I believe that with your luck, we can find even better ones.”
She was unwilling for Lord Divine to take risks for this.
The Order Manager said it was a narrow escape from death.
When Lord Divine challenged, he swept through the guards on the third floor, destroying everything in his path.
The Order Manager had already seen his strength, but he still said that it was a narrow escape from death and impossible to resist the extraterritorial prodigies.
One can imagine how powerful those extraterritorial prodigies with the Emperor's aura are.
