Chapter 32: Sword Out, Slay the Demon
Although he had a vague guess that there was something going on between Duan Qing and Meng Hongfei, Lu Yun did not bring it up, but asked indirectly.
"I see that Senior Brother has a strong aura, so he should have been promoted to the True Qi Realm, but has he passed the tenth level?"
"Although I have been promoted to the True Qi Realm, when I entered the tenth level, I only lasted a dozen breaths before I was blasted out." Duan Qing said with a wry smile.
Lu Yun could not help but look at Duan Qing again. He had just tried to test it a little, but he did not expect that he had really guessed it right. The chubby boy in front of him was really a True Qi Realm cultivator.
"Although the monsters in the Wanxiang Tower are evolved, their strength is not much different from that of real monsters, and there are more monsters than just one."
"Oh?" Lu Yun asked in confusion, "Isn't it one-on-one?"
"Haha, if it's only one-on-one, with my strength, I can definitely pass the tenth floor."
"The number of monsters on each floor of the Wanxiang Tower is uncertain. There may be only one or a hundred, but one thing is certain, the higher you go, the more terrifying they are, and the difficulty of passing the level is much higher than the previous level."
After explaining, Duan Qing continued, "Every year when new disciples enter the academy, there will be a storm. Many of your new students have already passed the Wanxiang Tower and caused quite a stir.
The most outstanding among them are Ma Yunfei, Xiao Chen and Bai Haoxuan."
Hearing the names of these people, Lu Yun's pupils shrank slightly.
Xiao Chen and Ma Yunfei are both top five-star physiques, and Bai Haoxuan is the only six-star physique. They are considered to be the most talented people in their class.
Even if Lu Yun was a lazy person, he couldn't help but be curious about the three of them's achievements in the Wanxiang Tower.
Looking at Lu Yun's expression, Duan Qing smiled slightly, not intending to tease Lu Yun's appetite, and said: "Among the three, the most powerful one is Bai Haoxuan. He entered the Wanxiang Tower for the first time ten days ago, rushed to the seventh floor in one breath, and defeated a second-level peak monster before being blasted out.
Although Xiao Chen and Ma Yunfei were a little behind, they also rushed to the sixth floor and defeated nine and seven second-level late-stage monsters respectively.
Such records have surpassed many veteran elite disciples and caused a great sensation."
Lu Yun's eyes flickered when he heard this.
Half a month ago, Xiao Chen was only in the early stage of Tongmai Realm. He entered the Martial Academy and received a reward. He could only cultivate to the middle stage of Tongmai Realm at most, but he could rush to the sixth floor of Wanxiang Tower.
Now he is also in the middle stage of Tongmai Realm. If he cultivates the Pure Yang True Qi to a small success, how many floors can he rush to?
"Are you tempted? Are you eager to go in and sprint to see how far you are from the top geniuses?"
Duan Qing smiled playfully: "I was the same as you back then, but unfortunately he has long been a disciple of the Star Hall, while I am still wandering in the elite disciple sequence."
"Brother has been promoted to the Qi Realm, I guess the tenth floor won't be able to hold you back for long."
Lu Yun complimented him, then looked at the Wanxiang Tower, his temperament changed, and he suddenly became high-spirited.
"As for me, I am indeed a little tempted, and I want to see how powerful the monsters on the sixth and seventh floors are, and whether they can stop me."
After leaving a sentence, Lu Yun quickly disappeared under Duan Qing's surprised eyes and rushed into the Wanxiang Tower.
Lu Yun's voice just now was not small, and immediately attracted the attention of many people around him.
"Haha, this junior brother is so arrogant. He wants to pass the sixth or even seventh floor when he enters the Wanxiang Tower for the first time. Who does he think he is?"
"It's normal. Most of the newcomers who have just entered the martial arts academy think they are geniuses. They can pass the Wanxiang Tower completely in one year, the 20th floor in three years, and the Wanxiang Tower in ten years. But when they really enter the Wanxiang Tower and experience the abnormal strength of the monsters in person, they will realize the cruelty of reality and gradually accept their mediocrity."
Listening to these mocking remarks, Duan Qing said lightly: "This junior brother Lu has a five-star bone. Even if he can't pass the sixth floor this time, he can easily pass it next time!"
After hearing Duan Qing's words, those who mocked him before were stunned and speechless for a while, not knowing how to refute.
They dared not refute.
Who is Duan Qing? He is one of the heroes of the previous session. Now he has been promoted to the true qi realm. It won't take long for him to go further and get rid of the status of elite disciples. From then on, he will become one of the disciples of the Xingchen Hall.
As for some people with thin skin, they felt ashamed and lowered their heads in shame.
Obviously, the five-star root bones are the most talented in the martial arts academy.
"Instead of mocking others, it is better to see how others pass the level quickly, use it as a way to motivate yourself, work hard to improve yourself, and avoid the tragedy of being expelled from the martial arts academy in the future."
While speaking, Duan Qing looked at the names on the Wanxiang Jade Wall, and his eyes narrowed into a thin line, but he couldn't block the brilliance revealed in them.
——
The moment he entered the Wanxiang Tower, Lu Yun felt a trance, and the scene around him suddenly changed, and he reappeared in a space.
This is a wilderness, the sky is dark, and the black clouds cover the sky and the earth. Only a few dozen feet can be seen.
Lu Yun can clearly distinguish that this is the space of the Wanxiang Tower, and it gives him a feeling that is completely different from the outside world.
"My body has completely entered the Wanxiang Tower. If I guess correctly, there will be monsters. But, if I can't be the opponent of the monsters, what will happen in the end?"
Thinking of this, Lu Yun frowned slightly.
Although he knew that there would be no accidents even if he failed, he still couldn't help but worry.
After all, in the Wanxiang Tower, either the monsters died or the challengers died!
"How does the Wanxiang Tower ensure that the martial arts school disciples are not harmed? Or is the mystery of the spiritual weapon far beyond my cognition?"
At this time, Lu Yun suddenly withdrew from his thoughts and looked straight ahead. There were ripples like water not far away.
Immediately, a huge blurry figure suddenly appeared in the darkness. Judging from its outline, it was much larger than the wild wolf he had killed in Yunmeng Mountain before.
Lu Yun narrowed his eyes, gently pressed the handle of the knife with his right hand, and observed the black shadow with a high concentration.
Whoosh!
It was as if a gust of wind was whistling, and the figure of the black shadow was rapidly enlarged, and the outline and appearance completely appeared in Lu Yun's eyes.
Silver-white hair, scarlet eyes, strong and powerful limbs, huge body, this is a silver-haired wolf demon, flying towards Lu Yun at a rapid speed.
The cold killing intent and powerful demonic energy made this Silver Moon Wolf seem to be a real demonic beast, not an evolution from the Wanxiang Tower.
When facing the momentum of a demonic beast for the first time, ordinary people would probably be frightened and unable to exert 80% of their strength on the spot.
But Lu Yun was different. He had been to Yunmeng Mountain and killed wild wolves with his own hands. He also killed horse bandits on the way to Yunshui County.
Although he was less than eleven years old at this time, he had the experience of fighting twice, and with twenty years of experience in his previous life, he was not afraid.
Calming down his mind, the Gang Qi surged in his Dantian, rushed through his meridians, circulated at the fastest speed, and gathered on the long sword.
The sword came out, and the demon was slain!
