Chapter 154: The Demon Tower

Before the masters could react, the prenatal qi above the mountains and rivers thickened.

Prenatal qi poured in from the various caves.

Then it was absorbed by the enchantment.

In the hole under Li Mu’s house, Li Mu crushed a prenatal stone into powder.

“This is the last one.”

In the last two years, Li Mu had placed his collection of tens of thousands of prenatal stones into the enchantment.

In the air…

The prenatal qi blew past in the strong wind.

Seventeen prenatal qi vortexes formed.

“What’s happening? There are still only seventeen entrances.”

A group of masters stared at the mountains.

There were vortexes of prenatal qi at the seventeen entrances.

But the eighteenth one was still missing.

“Someone must have blocked the entrance with prenatal stones. We’ve never encountered something like this before!”

The elders frowned.

Someone must have wasted a lot of prenatal stones just to hide the entrance.

If they don’t get what they want in the Land of Demon Slayers, wouldn’t it be a huge loss?

“Which bastard did this? It’s so wasteful. The Land of Demon Slayers will absorb all the prenatal qi.”

“A small force probably found the cavern and decided to hide it.”

“A small force? Will they have that many prenatal stones needed for this?”

“It doesn’t matter. We can take a look for ourselves when we enter after this prenatal qi vortex disappears.”

Meanwhile, Li Mu stared at the enchantment as a smile gradually came to his face.

The hundreds of thousands of yuan stones had not gone to waste.

The enchantment in front of him had stabilized.

“Quickly, let’s go in,” Li Mu said to the girls behind him.

They entered the enchantment.

The enchantment was much more stable than before.

Li Mu wrapped the girls with his true essence to help them resist the pressure from the enchantment. Together, they walked into the depths of the Land of Demon Slayers.

In the dark sky, there were still flashes of energy from the initial explosion of true essence.

It flashed in the sky like a firework.

In the distant mountains, thunder and lightning roared.

Apparently, there had been a master who had control over thunder and lightning techniques back then.

The middle of the Land of Demon Slayers was in ruins.

On the mountain, there were various caverns shining with light, making them look very pretty.

“It’s so beautiful!”

Liu Xiu and the other girls had never seen something so full of wonder before.

They were full of curiosity and excitement.

“Beautiful things are often very dangerous,” Li Mu reminded them.

From the moment they entered this place, they sensed that they were in danger.

Li Mu remained on guard, not daring to act recklessly.

“Let’s keep going cautiously.”

Li Mu used his divine consciousness to scan the surroundings and walked towards the opposite mountain with the girls.

It contained thunder and lightning techniques. He could not miss out on this.

“Stay here. I will be back soon.”

Li Mu left the girls behind and appeared under the thunder and lightning.

The electricity sparked around Li Mu.

Half an hour later, Li Mu walked out of Thunder Mountain.

He had gained quite a lot of knowledge.

This included new techniques to manipulate lightning.

He went back to the girls.

“Husband, there is a tower there!” Liu Xiu pointed to the hilltop in the distance.

It was the Demon Tower.

According to legends, it was where the Demon King kept his treasures.

The tower was ninety-nine floors tall.

Anyone who entered the tower would receive priceless rewards from the Demon King.

The legendary Demon King’s inheritance lay in this tower.

Apart from the Demon King’s inheritance, the tower also held the previous treasures he had gained over the years.

The higher the floor, the more generous the reward.

It was rumored that if one could reach the ninety-ninth floor, they would be able to obtain the core techniques of the Demon King.

Even if one didn’t reach the ninety-ninth floor, the skills and techniques on the ninety-eighth or ninety-seventh floor were already top-notch.

Many geniuses from small families managed to raise the status of their families after gaining the rewards from the fifty-fifth floor of the Demon Tower.

Someone from the Bat Clan had climbed to the sixty-fifth floor and obtained a secret manual.

This was how the Bat Clan from the mainland became a force that was not to be reckoned with in the mainland.

The Bat Clan in Fenglan was just a branch of the larger mainland Bat Clan.

If reaching the sixty-fifth levels could change the destiny of a clan, what about reaching the seventieth floor?

The highest floor anyone had ever reached was the eighty-second floor; something that was achieved by the Wind Clan.

The Demon Tower tested the individual’s fighting skill, regardless of what realm the cultivator was at.

The higher the cultivation of the person entering the tower, the tougher the opponents they would encounter.

There was no advantage to having a high cultivation level.

“Let’s go!”

Li Mu flew to the Demon Tower with the four girls.

Outside the Demon Tower, there was a huge stone monument, engraved with the words “Demon Tower”.

“Husband, why is this tower called the Demon Tower?”

“Rumor has it that it is a place designed by the Demon King to test and sharpen the younger generations. One can only become the Demon King after reaching the top of the tower. That’s why it’s called the Demon Tower,” Li Mu explained.

This was the only information he had about the Land of Demon Slayers.

The Demon Tower was the place where all the major forces from the mainland were congregating toward.

“Huh! There are so many words on this!”

Xu Fang went behind the stone tablet and found that there were many names engraved on the back.

There were tens of thousands of names in total.

“Tianyao region, Wing Clan, Fairy Changliu, eighty-second floor!”

Li Mu stared at the top line of words.

The second line read: “East Sea Dragon Clan, Purple Golden Dragon Tianming, eightieth floor.”

The third line read: “Shangqing region, Golden-winged Eagle, Leipeng, seventy-seventh floor.”

Li Mu continued reading.

The engraving showed the names of the people who had entered the tower, and the highest floor they managed to visit. The lower floors were accompanied by a lot of names.

By the sixtieth floor, there were still more than twenty names at each floor.

Only three names were engraved next to the sixty-fifth floor.

One of them was Yang Mietian from the Bat Clan in Qingling region.

Out of the three people, he was the only one from the Bat Clan.

“Their name sounds quite arrogant. Kind of like a villain.”

Li Mu realized what this stone tablet recorded.

This was a ranking of the people who had climbed the Demon Tower.

The higher the floor climbed, the higher they were on the stone tablet’s ranking.

There were were ten thousand names on the stone tablet.

Evidently, the Demon Tower had been here for many years.

Most of the names were from the Monster Clan from the Tianyao region and Tianfeng region.

Although Li Mu didn’t care about the Demon King’s inheritance, he was very curious how high he could climb and what his ranking would be in comparison with all the clans in this continent.

“Let’s go in and have a look.”

After silently checking in, Li Mu walked into the Demon Tower with the four girls.

“Remember, just quit if you can’t fight anymore,” Li Mu reminded the girls.

He then flew directly to the upper levels of the Demon Tower.

…

In the world outside…

The vortexes of prenatal qi at the remaining seventeen entrances gradually weakened.

“Hey! The enchantment seems to be absorbing less prenatal qi than before.”

“Who cares! I can’t wait to go in and find the treasures.”

“Aren’t you going to the Demon Tower?”

“That’s for the geniuses in the clan. If they go, I don’t need to go. There have been so many historic battles in the Land of Demon Slayers. I heard that there are many powerful treasures abandoned there. Hopefully we can get our hands on them.”

“Yes! If the geniuses in the clan learn new exercises, we can always learn from them. But the treasures that we find will be our own.”

“If you enter the Land of Demon Slayers earlier, you will have a higher chance of getting the treasure.”

Boom!

After half a day, all the vortexes had dissipated.

Everyone that had been waiting eagerly outside the seventeen entrances quickly rushed inside.

When they were inside, the figures hiding in the dark also rushed towards the entrances.
