“What do you mean by that, Tang Chen?”
The woman, who was none other than Tang Chen’s wife, Yue Mengyi, answered her directly. “Luxuria, you have been beside Ling Yun for so long, and the souls of the two of you are also bound to each other, so you should already understand his character, right? You can indeed defeat the five immortal spirits, and some of the spirit guardians are also weaker than you. However, you will only incur Zhu Ling’s wrath if you fight and kill them, and there is no way you can win against him.”
Ling Xi fell silent after she heard that, and she herself was certainly aware of that, especially since Zhu Ling was much stronger than her, plus he also had a special ability that made other spirits helpless before him.
“Ling Yun will be furious if you fall into Zhu Ling’s hands, and I dare to guarantee that he will turn a blind eye to go to the spirit realm to save you, so you should already know the risks if that happens.” Ling Xi looked at Yue Mengyi and raised her eyebrows, but she didn’t refute her words, as she knew that they were true. “That’s why it would be better if you dropped your intention, and you should go with him to that mysterious tower, especially since he will need your help there later.”
“Hmm?” Ling Xi sighed before speaking to them. “Actually, I want to go with LIng Yun to that place, but I have to protect Ye Jing and the others. Moreover, Zhou Yu will go with him, and she should be strong enough to protect him.”
Tang Chen immediately told Ling Xi. “The mysterious tower is completely different from what you imagined, and the situation there is really not that simple. I have indeed challenged the tower many times, but there are still some things I cannot understand about it, so I cannot give you a clear answer, and you can find out for yourself what I mean after you go there. Anyway, Zhou Yu is indeed the spirit of the void, but there are many unusual formations there, and she won’t be able to use her abilities to help Ling Yun, so you have to go and join them.”
Hearing that, Ling Xi remembered Zhou Yu’s story from before, and she asked him. “Do you think there is something hidden at the top of that tower? After all, the existence of that tower is truly unusual, and it is similar to the ancient garden.”
“You’re right, we’ve been thinking about those two places for a long time, and both are indeed similar. Since the ancients deliberately created the ancient garden, we think that tower was also created by them, and your guess may be correct that there is something hidden at the top.” It was Yue Mengyi who answered Ling Xi’s question.
Once again, Ling Xi fell into deep thought as she wondered in her heart. If the ancients also built the tower, Zhou Yu’s assumption that a part of the chaos dragon’s body was at the top of the tower was correct. However, it should be impossible for Ling Yun to reach the top with his current cultivation; even Tang Chen cannot pass the 90th floor. Can he use his bloodline power to reach the top?’ “Anyway, do you feel the difference in the flow of time in the tower?”
“If you didn’t ask that, I would have forgotten about it. You are right about that. The flow of time inside the tower is much slower than in the outside world, so we can challenge the tower without thinking about the changes in time in the outside world. Besides, the gravity on each floor is different, and the weight will increase the higher you go.” After he explained that, Tang Chen then turned to Ye Jing. “As for this little girl and the others, you don’t need to worry about them, especially since this sect is under the supervision of my clan, so we will protect them from those heretics.”
Seeing Ling Xi continuing to hesitate, Ye Jing spoke to persuade her. “Big Sis, I agree with Senior Tang; you should go to Yun’s side and go to that mysterious tower with him, especially since we don’t know the exact details about that place, so you and Big Sis Yu can help him. Morever, we can escape to the fortress if we’re in danger, so you don’t need to worry about us.”
After she thought things over carefully, Ling Xi finally agreed with them. “All right, I will return to Ling Yun’s side, but you two must protect Ye Jing and the others.”
“Don’t worry; leave their safety to us.”
After Ling Xi disappeared from their sight, Ye Jing asked the two. “Seniors, do you think Yun can reach the top of the tower?”
“Yes.” Yue Mengyi nodded and explained it to Ye Jing. “Your husband is the next chaos dragon, and not a single beast can stop him, so he can reach the top easily. Even so, it would be better if he didn’t use his bloodline power to reach the top, or else that place would be in vain, especially since it was built as a training ground, and the slow flow of time there would be beneficial for his growth.”
Ye Jing nodded understandingly. “Even though he wants to quickly reach the top of the tower, I’m sure that Yun will not take shortcuts by using his bloodline power to get there, and he will become stronger after leaving that place.”
“Are you also interested in going to the tower, Little Girl?”
“Yes, Senior.” Ye Jing answered Yue Mengyi’s question as she nodded. “Not only me, but my other sisters also want to accompany Yun to challenge the tower. Unfortunately, our cultivation is too slow, and we don’t have the qualifications for it yet.”
Yue Mengyi smiled and patted Ye Jing’s shoulder. “You don’t need to worry about that, and you just need to wait for Ling Yun to finish his training in that tower. After that, he will help all of you improve your cultivation, especially since there are so many treasures in there, and all of them are very potent for you guys.”
“Treasures?”
“My wife is right, Little Girl.” Tang Chen also spoke to her. “Several treasure chests will appear every time we defeat the guardian of each floor, and there are many unusual but useful treasures inside them, including herbs that don’t exist in the upper realms.”
“Are you able to become the strongest because of those treasures, Senior?”
“Yes and no.” Ye Jing looked at Tang Chen in confusion, making him laugh because of her expression. “Haha! Those treasures did help me to become this strong, but other factors also play a role, and my body was strengthened by Tang Xiao in the past.”
Ye Jing didn’t doubt that, especially since there was quite a lot of modern technology inside the Celestial Fortress, and Xiao Yin had also helped them a lot.
“All right, we will return to our clan first, but you don’t need to worry because we will guard this sect, so you can train in peace here.”
After Tang Xiao took Yue Mengyi away, Ye Jing immediately went to her other sisters, who were training elsewhere, to inform them of Ling Xi’s departure.

In the Sword Sect, Dan Qing accompanied Feng Xing and Feng Qiong to the mission hall, and he then asked them. “Do you guys really want to go on a mission? Won’t it be better if you trained in the sect first?”
“Senior Sister, we are swordswomen, and the best training ground for us is the actual battlefield, so we want to go find a mission that requires us to fight.” Even so, Feng Xing didn’t explain the truth to Dan Qing, as she actually wanted to leave the sect because Ling Yun would be returning to their residence to dual-cultivate with them.
Feng Qiong also spoke to convince Dan Qing. “Senior sister, we were used to spending our time fighting with beasts when we were still living in the lower realm, but we have never left our residence since we arrived in this realm, which made our battle instincts dull, so we wanted to go out to hone our fighting abilities, especially since the beasts in this realm are powerful. Moreover, we have more or less mastered the techniques that our master gave us, so we want to use this opportunity to test them.”
“You two are right, and our abilities will rust if we never engage in actual combat.” Dan Qing said that as she acknowledged their opinions. “Even so, you two are my juniors, and you have minimal knowledge about this realm, so I will go with you to carry out the mission.”
“But-”
“No buts.” After she interrupted them, Dan Qing immediately contacted their master to ask for his permission, and Dongfang Jiansheng agreed to it. “All right, our master has agreed for us to leave the sect, so let’s find a mission that is most suitable for the two of you, and I will just stand guard to protect you guys.”
Both women could only sigh in resignation after hearing that, and they immediately chose the mission that best suited their level. After they got it, the three of them immediately left their sect, but Feng Xing kept thinking of ways to return to Yunlong Zhuzhai, as she couldn’t possibly bring Dan Qing there.
