Arriving under the Babel Tower, Lu Yu expends 100 Contribution Points to teleport to the 9th floor.
Last time Lu Yu reached the safe zone on the ninth floor, and this time upon teleportation through the Babel Tower, he directly appears within the safe zone.
Without hesitation, he steps into the light column leading to the tenth floor.
His Identity Token vibrates, reminding Lu Yu that he has received the reward for reaching the tenth floor, 1000 Points, which equates to 1000 Contribution Points.
Starting from the tenth floor, rewards are given only upon reaching every tenth floor. The twentieth floor grants 2000 Points, the thirtieth floor grants 3000 Points, and so on.
Within the first ten floors, the demons all possess Body Refinement level power. Each floor climbed grants rewards, serving as benefits for Qi Cultivators, encouraging Divine Weapon Pavilion disciples to challenge the Babel Tower and sharpen their skills.
From the tenth floor onwards, appearing demons possess Qi Cultivation level power.
On the tenth floor of the Babel Tower, dark clouds envelop the sky, twisted dead trees emitting black mist are scattered everywhere, and lurking beneath the barren land are deadly hunters ready to prey on passing targets.
Lu Yu's goal is to hunt demons and gain experience points.
He obviously cannot wander everywhere looking for demons; that method is too inefficient, he has a better plan.
Lu Yu walks toward the center of the Babel Tower; currently being in the peripheral zone, the effect of luring demons is not optimal.
Thump thump! As Lu Yu passes through the forest, he is attacked. Several demons hidden inside the twisted dead trees attack Lu Yu in their thin-line forms, their attacks are blocked by the TianGang Profound Qi surrounding Lu Yu's body.
Ignoring the demons attacking him, Lu Yu rushes toward the center of this floor as fast as possible.
After Lu Yu leaves, those demons composed of thin lines try to retreat back into the dead trees, but the bright Celestial Falling Bright Flame clings to them, burning them to ashes along with the twisted dead trees.
Lu Yu hears the kill notification sound while still seeing the safe zone in the distance. With his current strength, traversing the Babel Tower is ridiculously easy. At least below the 50th floor, no demon can slow him down.
This location is approximately at the center of the tenth floor, where luring is most effective, and demons coming from all directions can reach in the shortest time. Lu Yu painstakingly plans for them.
He glances at the remaining duration of his BUFF, there's still 5 hours and 48 minutes left.
Lu Yu takes out the Demon General's Heart.
The black heart pulsates in Lu Yu's hand, its throbbing affects all demons' minds within the tenth floor. Almost as soon as Lu Yu takes out the heart, every demon turns to look at his position.
The appearance of the heart on the tenth floor triggers a demon riot, with all demons rushing toward Lu Yu, unable to be deterred even if they have severely injured Divine Weapon Pavilion disciples, with flesh almost in their mouths.
Tens of thousands of demons gallop across the tenth floor, causing the earth and mountains to tremble.
Watching the demons swiftly pass by him, ignoring him, all the Divine Weapon Pavilion disciples are extremely shocked.
"What's going on?"
"Why aren't these demons attacking us?"
"Hurry up! While the demons ignore us, this is the best chance to enter the next floor."
...
The first to arrive are several winged flying demons, their eyes filled with intense desire and fervor as they gaze at the heart.
The demon riot is partly due to the heart's call to the demons, and partly because the demons sense that consuming this heart can enable them to evolve and strengthen.
Several demons flying toward the heart in Lu Yu's hand are swiftly slain by him. The strength of the demons on the tenth floor corresponds to Qi Cultivation's first stage Martial Cultivators, each demon granting Lu Yu about 200 experience points.
Lu Yu's power level is too high, receiving an experience points penalty; farming these Qi Cultivation first stage demons yields only a tenth of the experience.
He sighs, indeed, the quickest way to level up is through battling higher-level monsters.
This matter also informs Lu Yu that accelerating cultivation is not a matter of speed alone. If combat power doesn't match the cultivation increase, it results in a substantial slowdown in power growth after a cultivation surge.
Boom boom! In the distance appears a moving black wall. Turning back, the black wall has already surrounded Lu Yu, converging from all directions.
Demons crowd one against another, forming a dense, wind-tight mass. At least three to four thousand demons appear within Lu Yu's sight.
Lu Yu draws the Demon-Breaking Saber, infuses Spiritual Power into it, and the saber extends rapidly, soon reaching a length of five meters.
This is a high-grade magic weapon, a characteristic only of grade seven or higher — size alteration.
Five meters isn't the limit for the Demon-Breaking Saber, but it is Lu Yu's limit; continuing to infuse Spiritual Power would make the saber too heavy for Lu Yu to wield easily.
As the blade lengthens, the hilt also lengthens and thickens accordingly. Lu Yu grips the saber with both hands, brandishing the five-meter-long Demon-Breaking Saber as he advances toward the surging demon horde.
Roar! The deformed demons emit roars.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh! Three saber lights flash, and demons within five meters are cleaved into four pieces, black magic blood scatters, yet unable to stain the Demon-Breaking Saber.
Demons struck by the Demon-Breaking Saber rapidly lose their demonic qi, stripped of their unbelievably resilient vitality. With merely the strength and speed of Qi Cultivation's first stage Martial Cultivators, demons stand helpless before Lu Yu's five-meter saber, offering no resistance.
Occasionally, some oddly-shaped demons break through Lu Yu's saber attack range, yet they barely manage to strike Lu Yu, who remains protected by the swirling TianGang Profound Qi. Currently, the strength of his TianGang Profound Qi is impenetrable except by Qi Cultivation's peak level.
