#2425 - Complete the ultimate challenge and get the opportunity of the ancient tower
The Emperor's projected avatar, arriving with an air of superiority, as if dominating all living beings,
now found itself being brutally beaten by Jun Wu Xie.
He was incredibly enraged, charging towards Jun Wu Xie, unleashing a violent counterattack.
However, he still couldn't reverse his situation.
Each of the opponent's punches and palm strikes carried vast and boundless divine power, shaking the universe, making it difficult for him to parry.
No matter how much he sublimated, the opponent would follow up with even stronger power, suppressing him to the point of utter helplessness!
Soon, his body was riddled with holes, covered in wounds, and soaked in blood, his black hair disheveled, with bloodstains on his lips, eyes, nose, and ears, a truly pathetic sight.
The Emperor's projected avatar, reduced to such a state, was even less capable of resisting.
His strength had already declined, but his opponent remained as vigorous as a dragon and fierce as a tiger.
He couldn't understand how the opponent could maintain such power if he was borrowing the strength of a special artifact.
If not...
Even now, he still refused to believe this thought, mainly because he couldn't convince himself that such a person could exist in the world!
"Junior, you are tainted by the Emperor's karma, which will inevitably lead you into the abyss, never to recover!"
The Emperor's projected avatar roared, his body being knocked down from the sky, crashing heavily onto the bronze ground, causing it to tremble slightly.
"You dare to claim you can taint me with karma?"
Jun Wu Xie descended from the sky, stepping on the Emperor's projected avatar's chest.
The weight of this step caused his chest to cave in, almost piercing through, eliciting a groan of pain.
Suffering this blow, the Emperor's projected avatar's body began to disintegrate, gradually fading.
"One day, this Emperor will find you and cross realms to suppress and kill you!"
His eyes were icy, never having imagined that coming here with a projected avatar would result in such humiliation.
The death of the avatar would surely be felt by the true body, and his invincible dao heart would be affected.
He needed to kill the person who caused him to lose his avatar to consolidate his dao heart and ensure its flawlessness.
"Good, then I'll wait for you."
Jun Wu Xie said, exerting force on his foot, causing the avatar to completely disintegrate, scattering into a rain of light and dissipating.
The two prodigies, under the feet of the Order Maintainer, witnessed this scene, their dao hearts collapsing in terror.
The projected avatar of an Emperor-level powerhouse had actually been killed!
Seeing that youth approaching, the fear rising in their hearts caused their bodies to convulse and their pupils to dilate.
"You...don't come over...what do you want to do..."
They cried out in alarm, seeing the soul light blooming from Jun Wu Xie's brow.
Immediately, they discovered that their wills were being suppressed.
Then, that youth used some secret technique to forcibly gather the origin of their bloodlines and essence, qi, and spirit within their bodies.
The two emitted heart-wrenching screams, struggling frantically, but to no avail.
They watched with utter despair as their dao fruits were forcibly stripped away.
Their bodies quickly withered, all vitality extinguished, turning into two dried corpses.
Jun Wu Xie put away the dao fruits and casually used flames to incinerate the dried corpses.
"Are you alright? Were you frightened just now?"
Jun Wu Xie walked to Queen Rhine.
Rhine nodded gently, the Emperor's pressure from before still lingering in her mind, leaving her with lingering fear.
This was still under the protection of the Order Maintainer.
Without protection, she couldn't imagine what the consequences would have been.
Her mind would probably have collapsed in an instant, and her dao heart would have been completely shattered.
"Let's go, let's take on the challenge, complete the challenges here, obtain the opportunities of this level, and then we should leave."
It had been a long time since they left the Alliance Fortress for the Border Wilderness.
However, the gains from this trip were quite substantial.
What pleased him most was seeing his old friends from the Immortal Ancient era.
As they walked into the challenge area together, the dao pattern lights on the bodies of the twenty guards inside lit up, rapidly awakening.
At the same time, the Order Maintainer explained the challenge rules for this level.
The challenge on this level was different from the other levels. The number of guards was not large, but they were all extremely powerful.
Each challenger would face ten Despair-level guards!
This meant that the difficulty here was also Despair-level!
Each Despair-level guard exuded an aura ten times stronger than that of a Abyss-level guard!
"This time, I won't need the Primordial Avatar to protect you. I'll protect you personally."
Jun Wu Xie stacked his full state, activating all kinds of forbidden techniques, directly causing himself to reach extreme sublimation.
Then, he erected a Chaos Golden Blood Qi sphere, enveloping Rhine, and then cast the Indestructible Divine Power, condensing a transparent golden bell around his body.
He held Rhine's left hand, with Chaos Golden light flowing through the fingers of his right hand.
The twenty Despair-level guards completely awakened and attacked simultaneously, launching fierce attacks from all directions.
Jun Wu Xie stepped on the 'Line' word incantation, shuttling between the guards, holding Rhine's left hand and waving his right fist, striking in all directions.
His punching speed was too fast. Although it was only one hand, he successfully penetrated all the Immortal Techniques and Divine Powers attacking from all sides.
Each time he attacked, the Three Thousand Stack Killing Technique was fully effective, one punch after another, sending the surrounding guards flying.
Even Despair-level guards, the strongest challenge targets in this bronze ancient tower, couldn't withstand his fists.
Even if they blocked, they would still be sent flying by the boundless divine power, their arms spasming, and the Immortal Power within their bodies consumed drastically.
Those guards frantically attacked, Immortal Techniques covering the sky and earth.
However, it was difficult to hit him.
His 'Line' word incantation was too fast, always able to avoid attacks at critical moments, and his fist imprints were like blazing Chaos suns, obliterating the Immortal Techniques.
Those guards roared in anger, but there was nothing they could do, they could only watch helplessly as the Immortal Power within their bodies was consumed, unable to touch even the hem of the opponent's clothes.
Occasionally, they managed to hit him, breaking the golden bell, but it was blocked by the Chaos Golden Blood Qi sphere.
Before long, the Immortal Power within those guards' bodies had been consumed to a terrifying degree.
Finally, under Jun Wu Xie's fists and palms, their Immortal Power was exhausted, and they let out angry roars, falling backward to the sky.
"Congratulations to the fortunate one in later generations for successfully completing the final challenge of the ninth level."
A blurry figure appeared in the air of the challenge area, a heroic middle-aged man.
"Eternity has passed, countless years, and finally, I have waited for such a person.
I knew that later generations had hope, the prophecy was indeed correct, and I can finally rest in peace..."
A look of relief appeared on the heroic phantom's face, laughing loudly, and then dissipating into light and smoke amidst the laughter.
"Lord!"
The Order Maintainer's sorrowful cry rang out behind him.
His eyes filled with tears, looking at the light and smoke that was about to dissipate, his lips trembling.
"Lord Jun, is he...the master of this tower?"
Rhine suddenly felt heavy, with a sense of sorrow.
She knew that the master of this tower had fallen while resisting the darkness.
Throughout the ages, over countless years, during countless doomsday torrents, the number of heroic sages who sacrificed themselves was countless.
From the Immortal Ancient era to the present, so many epochs, the entire history is a long and sorrowful one.
Countless people shed blood and sacrificed themselves to fight against the darkness, throwing their heads and spilling their blood to protect the heavens.
It was because of their sacrifices that the civilizations of the heavens were able to continue to this day.
This long ancient history is sorrowful, but also resilient.
No matter how many doomsdays it has experienced, it has never succumbed. In every era, there is always a group of people who transform into the spine that supports the heavens!
"Yes, he is the master of this bronze ancient tower, a powerhouse who was once at the peak of the Great Emperor realm."
Jun Wu Xie sighed in his heart, it seemed that this Great Emperor had ultimately failed to reincarnate.
Otherwise, his reincarnated body would have already come here to obtain opportunities.
How could the Order Maintainer here not recognize him?
"Let's go, let's go take a look. Besides the Source of Light, whether there are other things left on this last level."
Jun Wu Xie pulled Rhine to the front of the bronze platform. The moment the bronze box was opened, a dazzling and brilliant light illuminated the entire ninth level of heaven and earth.
At the same time, a meteor-like bronze light flew out, suspended in the air, actually being a bronze armor.
Dense and numerous, a full thousand pieces of bronze armor!
"This is the hope that Great Emperor left for the end of the Divine Ancient era..."
Jun Wu Xie waved his sleeves, collecting the bronze armor, and then looked at the Source of Light floating in front of him.
The pure aura of light permeated, making people feel comfortable all over, and their entire hearts were clean and clear.
Queen Rhine closed her eyes, with traces of blood at the corners of her eyes.
She couldn't see the Source of Light clearly. The light was too strong, causing her eyes to sting and bleed.
She could only use her divine sense to observe.
Jun Wu Xie activated his pupil technique, so he could look directly.
This Source of Light was quite pure, of extremely high quality, and had a lot of it!
He estimated that if he refined it, he should be able to cultivate the Light Bloodline from the first stage to the sixth stage!
The Sources of Space obtained from the first two levels allowed him to cultivate the Space Bloodline from the first stage to the fourth stage.
This Source of Light was of better quality, so the progress would naturally be much higher.
It seemed that there was only a difference of two stages, but in reality, the difference was huge.
Because the further you go, the more difficult it is to break through a stage, and the higher the demand for the origin.
He put the Source of Light into his Cave Heaven.
The strong light disappeared, and Rhine opened her eyes.
"Lord Jun, why don't you refine it here."
Jun Wu Xie nodded and immediately constructed a double Time Rune Array and began cultivating.
Queen Rhine also comprehended the combat experience she had observed in the Time Rune Array some time ago.
As time passed, day after day.
The pure light on Jun Wu Xie's body became stronger and stronger, and his aura gradually increased with the passage of time.
His physical body was strengthened due to the progress of the Innate Sacred Body Bloodline.
Bones, internal organs, blood vessels, meridians, and the Wheel of Life were all becoming stronger and more resilient.
The lifeblood energy within his body became increasingly refined, and its power was enhanced.
His Space Bloodline broke through from the initial first stage to the second stage, third stage, and fourth stage!
When his Divine Forbidden Domain reached the peak of the fourth stage of the Space Bloodline, it stepped into the third heaven of Eternal Myth!
After that, the Space Bloodline continued to break through to the fifth stage, only stopping in the early sixth stage.
However, the Divine Forbidden Domain failed to break through again, remaining at the peak of the third heaven of Eternal Myth.
It was only a little bit away from breaking through to the fourth heaven.
If the Space Bloodline could be cultivated to the later stage of the sixth stage, breaking through the Divine Forbidden Domain would not be a problem.
However, the quality of this Source of Space was not enough to allow his Space Bloodline to advance further.
The entire process was watched by the Order Manager.
"As expected, the senior's Divine Forbidden Domain has not yet reached its limit."
"It's just because there aren't enough resources, otherwise, it would definitely be able to break through to the fourth heaven of Eternal Myth!"
To think that a Primordial God Realm could have such a bloodline potential growth limit, it's simply unimaginable, too terrifying!
"It's time to leave..."
Jun Wuxie opened his eyes, feeling the changes in himself, and was very satisfied with the improvement of the Divine Forbidden Domain.
The harvest from this trip was really too rich, it was a great opportunity.
He awakened Rhein, preparing to leave this ancient bronze tower.
Lian Yue and Jiu Qing were still waiting outside the tower.
