Chapter 1824 - 1424: Empty-Handed? A Cleaver Is Still a Knife!

Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but raise a thumb and praise, "High!"

"I finally understand why the Tashi Tribe has the Smelting Tower. Damn, let’s not even mention the world’s divine weapons coming out of Qilian. Just with this Star Innate Tower, who knows how many divine weapons are swallowed every year? This is simply a money-making machine! A million-dollar profit business, while outsiders stupidly rush in!" Gu Changsheng slapped the wall, face looking pale, "Isn’t this like throwing a meat bun to a dog, never to return? Damn it..."

"Well, actually it won’t happen like that!" The Holy Envoy Child, who had been quietly standing in the sack, spoke after thinking, "In fact, these weapons can be retrieved!"

"Oh?" Hearing this, Gu Changsheng immediately perked up, no longer crying to the wall about her confiscated weapons. She quickly turned around to the Holy Envoy Child, "Brat, how do I get my weapons back, tell me!"

"Reach the ninth layer of the Star Innate Tower, meet the Holy Master; inside the tower, only the Holy Master can take the weapons down!" This time, the Holy Envoy Child didn’t play coy, speaking straightforwardly.

But the next moment, Gu Changsheng slapped the Holy Envoy Child on the forehead, feeling utterly frustrated, pointing at him, "You damn it! You might as well have said nothing! Huh? Huh?"

Reach the ninth layer of the Star Innate Tower?

She would love to!

But her inner strength is disappearing, and her weapons are gone. Is this asking her to fight wolves with bare hands?

Are you joking?

"I’m not lying!" The Holy Envoy Child was hit, and his face, usually expressionless, started to show a crack...

It seems...

He’s never been hit...

This feeling of being hit...

Is quite indescribably peculiar!

"You might as well have lied!" Gu Changsheng glared, smelling the bloody scent around and hearing the shouts of fighting and killing. She frowned deeply; damn it, at this moment, she really wanted to give up!

This is simply not a place for humans!

It’s completely a slaughterhouse!

Moreover, Ta You has made these lambs waiting to be slaughtered all powerless like a chicken!

This really made Gu Changsheng feel very helpless. Although she excelled in combat in her past life, in this life, she’s gradually gotten used to having inner strength. Suddenly losing inner strength, even for Gu Changsheng, is hard to adapt to!

Without inner strength, without weapons, then the path ahead becomes like the stairs right now!

Purely hand-to-hand combat!

Relying only on fists!

Without inner strength as a reliance, Gu Changsheng really dislikes this feeling of being a lamb to the slaughter!

"Holy Master says, ’Endure the hardest of hardships to become a superior man; without experiencing life and death, without honing oneself, any wealth and position are meaningless!’" The Holy Envoy Child thought about it, feeling he should defend his master.

"Ha!" Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng sneered, looking coldly at the Holy Envoy Child, "Your master sure has a lot to say! Do you see the people lying on the ground? See the rivers of blood? This is what he calls enduring the hardest of hardships? This is how he claims people become superior?"

As she spoke, Gu Changsheng waved her sleeve and continued, "Don’t use such excuses to cover up his killing mania! He just enjoys watching everyone being manipulated by his decisions, whose life and death he controls! Such a person’s mind is simply twisted, it’s perverted!"

As Gu Changsheng spoke, she became increasingly indignant!

Those who entered the tower, if they don’t give up midway, then there’s only the difference between life and death!

And those who survive, supposedly only one, while the dead are already everywhere now!

This is not a trial! This is outright bloodless slaughter!

At this moment, Gu Changsheng suddenly feels, this Ta You person, his heart might be twisted!

"Honey, this place is too terrifying, without inner strength, how do we carve a bloody path out of here? Why don’t we give up, go out and directly knock down this tower, and just don’t believe that Ta You won’t come down!" Even Yuan Bao, who had once followed Zhou Mu to battlefields, was frightened by the killing inside the tower, his round jade-like face pale as he spoke.

"The Star Innate Tower can’t be knocked down! This is the resting place built by the Holy Master, with foundations going a hundred meters underground. Unless someone can uproot it entirely, it can’t be knocked down!" The Holy Envoy Child said, expressionless, upon hearing Yuan Bao’s words.

Hearing this, Gu Changsheng coldly glared at the Holy Envoy Child, her Phoenix Eyes a chilling dark!

"Give up? In Gu Changsheng’s life dictionary, there’s no such word as give up! It’s just no inner strength, no weapons? Bare-handed, I’ll still kill my way to the top!" Saying that, Gu Changsheng gestured with her fists!

Even someone lame like Diluo Han once reached the third layer of the Star Innate Tower, and she can’t believe she can’t get up?

Ta You is capable, but if he thinks a place of disarmament can make Gu Changsheng retreat from difficulty, he’s really daydreaming. She, Gu Changsheng, isn’t someone who backs down from a challenge!

And now, those entering the first layer of the Star Innate Tower, their inner strength has almost completely dissipated. Some older ones, losing the support of inner strength, immediately aged significantly, and countless others, in the absence of inner strength, continually fell in pools of blood in physical combat!

This is just the first layer of Star Innate Tower!

A place of disarmament has created chaos and widespread killing!

This is the most unseen way of killing Gu Changsheng has witnessed!

"Let’s go!" After thinking, Gu Changsheng made her decision.

She doesn’t want to waste too much time on the first layer of Star Innate Tower. For her, giving up is unrealistic, so she’ll fight bare-handedly! Who’s afraid of whom?

"Knife! Knife! Knife! Why wasn’t your slaughtering knife absorbed?"

But just as Gu Changsheng turned around, preparing to head towards the spiral staircase in the middle of this layer of the tower, a shocked voice came from the side.

Gu Changsheng turned his head and saw Diluo Han looking at him with a face of disbelief, even raising a finger to point at his lower back...

Gu Changsheng instinctively reached towards his lower back...

Then...

Gu Changsheng was dumbfounded...

Oh my god!

Her slaughtering knife was actually still there?

Gu Changsheng, somewhat in disbelief, pulled out the slaughtering knife tucked in her lower back, and after looking it up and down, left and right, she asked her evildoer and Shi Wujue with a face full of doubt, "Why is it still here?"

Clearly, any weapon considered a sharp tool on them was confiscated, so why was this slaughtering knife still here?

"Maybe it was overlooked?" Shi Wujue raised an eyebrow, his face also full of doubt.

"It shouldn’t be; I had something strong at my back just now. If it wanted to absorb, it should absorb this first!" Gu Changsheng shook her head upon hearing this and then took two steps back, returning to the wall where her dagger was absorbed, and tentatively brought the slaughtering knife in her hand a little closer to the wall...

Don’t blame her for being so cautious, this was the only sharp tool left on them. If it got taken away again, with their lost inner strength, they’d have nothing to cut vegetables with!

So, one had to be careful!

Just in case it really absorbed it, she could desperately hold on, maybe she could save it, who knows?

"Ding!"

The tip of the knife touched the wall, making a gunshot sound...

Then, Gu Changsheng immediately pulled back the hand holding the slaughtering knife...

And then, the slaughtering knife was taken back!

Gu Changsheng stared in surprise, once again brought the slaughtering knife in her hand a little closer to the wall...

This time, it was still taken back!

After several attempts and all went well, Gu Changsheng grew bolder and just slapped the slaughtering knife onto the wall...

"Bang!"

Then, with a bang, the slaughtering knife fell to the ground!

"Don’t waste your efforts! The knife isn’t up to standard, it won’t be confiscated here!" The Holy Envoy Child couldn’t stand Gu Changsheng’s foolish actions anymore, his lips barely visible as he chuckled, and said indifferently.

But Gu Changsheng seemed to not hear his words, picking up her slaughtering knife as if it were a treasure and holding it to her chest, joyfully shouting, "It doesn’t absorb! It doesn’t absorb! It really doesn’t absorb! My slaughtering knife is spared! Haha..."

So, she’s not entirely empty-handed?

At least, she still had a vegetable-cutting knife!

Who cares what the Holy Envoy Child said about standards? It could be taken if it was of high enough grade, couldn’t it? All got absorbed, didn’t they?

At a time like this, not being high grade is the key!

Although it’s just an ordinary vegetable knife, a knife is still a knife, don’t underestimate a vegetable knife!

"Haha... Heaven helps me! Heaven helps me!"

"Ding!"

"Bang!"

"Ding!"

"..."

But just as Gu Changsheng was overjoyed at the survival of the slaughtering knife, several crisp sounds suddenly came from her body...

Her face froze, her smile immediately stiffened, her expression became wooden...

After a while, she stiffly moved her neck like a mummy and glanced at herself...

As she turned her head, a hairpin in her long hair seemed to fall apart, dropping segment by segment, and with it, a heap of medicinal powder...

The damaged bracelet also cracked...

The jade clasp at her waist exploded...

Even the snake image coiled around her wrist became blurry, about to disappear...

"Damn you, Ta You!" Gu Changsheng only had time to curse once in a low voice before hurriedly calling out softly in her heart, "Soul-Devouring Python! Are you still alive, Soul-Devouring Python?"

All the mysterious things on her body were destroyed, but the snake image on her wrist was different! That’s her Soul-Devouring Python, her Gu! Would it also be destroyed?

Gu Changsheng truly experienced the feeling of joy turning into sorrow; one second she was overjoyed at saving her slaughtering knife, and the next second, she really wanted to die, sincerely cursing Ta You’s ancestors for eighteen generations...
