Demon Dragon Mad God-Chapter 34 Entering
Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Entering
These were all once challengers who died inside the Star Tower and mutated. Judging by their skeletons, they were all about the same age as Lin Feng.
"Ha ha, Lin Feng, you really are unlucky, I’m not going to play with you."
A loud laughter came from Lin Dao, who was passing by and came to check upon hearing some noise, only to get a big scare. But then he realized it was just that unlucky Lin Feng being surrounded and burst out laughing.
He was afraid those corpses would target him, so he simply turned around and ran. In his view, Lin Feng was incredibly unfortunate; originally just trash, and yet just a short while after entering the Star Tower, he encountered such a huge surprise; it felt somewhat tragic.
Lin Feng withdrew his gaze to look at the group of over twenty corpses, "Just a bunch of ants."
Immediately, he formed hand seals with both hands, and lightning flashed. It was the Thunder Tribulation Seal he had mastered earlier. After further contemplation, he could now use it at will.
The Thunder Tribulation Seal formed instantly, and as a Four Stars Battle Skill, it was undoubtedly very powerful. Wherever it passed, any corpses it touched dissipated and melted away like early spring snow.
Corpses were inherently filthy, and lightning, representing the righteous energy of heaven and earth, is said to break all methods.
In an instant, those twenty or more corpses all turned to ash.
If Lin Dao had seen this scene, he would’ve been absolutely stunned, his jaw dropping to the floor, but he had already run far away, believing Lin Feng was doomed.
After dealing with over twenty obstructing corpses, Lin Feng rushed forward, and soon encountered another three or four corpses, but he also forcefully killed them.
However, Lin Feng estimated that it had been at least thirty minutes, and he still hadn’t seen the entrance, not to mention having any sense of direction.
"This is a bit strange."
Lin Feng muttered, his gaze landing on an item in his hand – something that looked like a key obtained from killing several of the corpses. He had seven keys in total.
These were found inside the corpses, from their stomachs, mouths, or even anuses.
Each key had a tiny number engraved on it, from one to seven – Lin Feng had all seven keys.
"Could there be something particular about these keys?"
Whoosh!
Just as Lin Feng was pondering, the seven keys levitated on their own, as if an invisible hand was pulling them up, and then they began to rotate in mid-air. Suddenly, Lin Feng saw a Light Gate appear in front of him.
Lin Feng was stunned, then suddenly realized, it seemed his guess was almost right on the mark. The entrance wasn’t fixed in one place; instead, the challenger had to collect the keys, and upon gathering them all, could open the Light Gate and smoothly move to the next layer.
Lin Feng immediately rushed into the Light Gate.
"Who is this guy, to have discovered the mystery inside even faster than me? Looking at his clothing, he should be a disciple of the Lin Family. Could it be Lin Zihua?"
Just as the Light Gate was disappearing, a figure in blue robes emerged.
Lei Pojun watched thoughtfully as that figure entered the Light Gate; he also had keys in his hand, but only six, still short of the last one.
"I need to hurry up, no matter what, I have to reach the Seventh Layer, Bingyan is still waiting for me outside!"
Lei Pojun took a deep breath, determination in his eyes. His goal wasn’t the baptism everyone coveted; that was too hard, likely to be claimed either by Lei Ming of the Lei Family, Lin Zihua of the Lin Family, or Shi Gandang of the Shi Family.
Because the three of them were all Eighth Grade Stars, arguably the strongest three existences among their clans.
Although Lei Pojun was also a character, his Star rank was after all one degree lower, which put him inherently at a slight disadvantage compared to those individuals. So he sought the next best thing, focusing on the other treasures within the Seventh Layer.
...
Lin Feng, unaware he had been mistaken for Lin Zihua, didn’t mind as his goal was also the qualification for the baptism.
The second layer was still empty, but this time there was a slight mist looming, with each floor of the Star Tower creating its own space.
"Let’s continue."
Lin Feng stepped out of the Light Gate and instantly, over a dozen corpses appeared again, roaring as they charged towards him.
Outside the Star Tower.
The three clan elders were deep in thought there.
"To step into the next layer, one must collect enough materials, which means facing these challenges head-on and not avoiding them; otherwise, one can never advance to the next level," said the Shi Family Elder.
"The so-called challenges are nothing but transient clouds before absolute strength. I believe our clan’s Lei Ming, being an Eighth Grade Star, cannot be stopped by anyone. He will definitely obtain the baptism qualification!" the Lei Family Elder said confidently.
"Hmph, our Lin Family’s Lin Zihu is second to none. It’s still too early to say who will ultimately secure the baptism qualification!" Lin Dong retorted coldly.
"Talk is cheap, seeing is believing." The Shi Family Elder swung his arm, throwing out a jade scroll, from which a light screen displaying the base model of the Star Tower emerged, segmented into seven layers displaying ten red dots, nine of which were on the second layer, and one on the first.
Seeing this, Lin Dong and the Lei Family Elder also threw out their jade scrolls, revealing almost the same scene.
However, in the Lei Family display, all ten dots were on the second layer. The Lin Family had nine on the second layer, and one on the first.
With such a comparison, it was evident that the Shi Family disciples were leading. The Shi Family burst into laughter: "It seems our Shi Gandang has taken the lead, stepping directly into the third layer. Your Lin Zihua of the Lin Family and Lei Ming of the Lei Family are both Eighth Grade Stars; you can’t be this slow. Especially your Lin Family, what’s the matter? It’s been quite a while, how can someone still not find their way on the first floor? Could it be that they are lost?"
Lin Dong, hearing this, was infuriated, his fists clenched tightly as his gaze fixed on the red dot on the first floor.
Lin Feng, you useless trash! Making me lose all face! You might as well die in there! Useless!!
...
Naturally, Lin Feng was unaware that he had been metaphorically shot. He used a Thunder Tribulation Seal to eliminate more than thirty corpses, managing to collect six keys. But no matter what, he couldn’t obtain the last key; it seemed as if it didn’t exist, leaving Lin Feng quite helpless.
Just then, Lin Feng heard the sound of battle not far from him and went to look, only to discover it was a Shi Family Disciple, presumably from the Shi Family Earth Shield sect, enveloped entirely in mud forming a strong protective layer.
The attacker was a Mechanical Beast, which, apart from the common corpses within the Star Tower, represented a slightly tougher challenge.
