Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 635 - 625: The Mutated Seventh Layer!

Chapter 635: Chapter 625: The Mutated Seventh Layer!

The Purple Flame Dragon was cleaved and destroyed by Shi Feng’s flying slash, and the majestic mysterious force was completely absorbed by Shi Feng. Yet, at this moment, Shi Feng still proudly stood amidst this space filled with a sky of purple flames burning fiercely!

His gaze began to sweep across this purple flame space, checking if there were any existences or a pathway that could lead him to the next level.

The Martial Arts Sky Tower was divided into nine levels, and he was currently at the seventh. There were two more levels below. The mysterious force became more powerful with each level he entered. Once he truly conquered the Martial Arts Sky Tower, Shi Feng believed his gains would be substantial—his strength would become even mightier.

After scanning the area, Shi Feng found nothing of significance. Without hesitation, his figure suddenly moved, breaking through space at high speed toward the front, ready to leave this region and search for a path to the next level in other areas.

...

In the Underground Palace outside the Martial Arts Sky Tower.

At this time, the twelve strong members of the Lann Family were staring at the Martial Arts Sky Tower, which stood like a small mountain. Since the light shone from the seventh level of the Martial Arts Sky Tower, it had not, as before, stepped into the next level too quickly.

Fifteen days had passed. During these fifteen days, they kept their eyes fixed on the Martial Arts Sky Tower. Since that brash young man entered the seventh level, there had been no sign of movement from the tower, and they had not seen him emerge.

As for the possibility of the brash young fellow entering the eighth level, they hadn’t even considered it. Even their ancestor, who had reached the Martial Emperor Realm and was famously powerful across the Eastern Domain, had not been able to enter the eighth level!

"Do you think that brash young man could have died on the seventh level?" At this time, an Old Gu spoke up, breaking the silence of the Underground Palace.

After the Old Gu finished speaking, another Old Gu said, "Died inside? That should not be the case! Didn’t we also fail at the fifth level? Back then, my situation was even worse; a woman dug out my heart. At that time, I thought I was truly dead, but it turned out to be a feigned death. After the Martial Arts Sky Tower ejected me, everything was fine! Death in the Martial Arts Sky Tower is not really death at all!"

"You can’t be sure though!" Another Old Gu interjected, "That was the fifth level, but beyond that, apart from the Imperial Uncle reaching the sixth level, no one besides our ancestor has ever entered the seventh level. Maybe if you die on the seventh level, you really do die."

This Old Gu, in comparison to several other Old Gus, appeared slightly younger. Some called the Old Gu at the center, near the Golden Dragon Pillar, the Imperial Uncle, and hence he was referred to as the Imperial Uncle.

"If he really died on the seventh level, then it would be such a pity for a peerless Evil Demon to die inside the Martial Arts Sky Tower. This person is so young, his achievements are unimaginable. It’s almost guaranteed that he will become a Martial Emperor in the future. And don’t forget the purpose for which we opened the Martial Arts Sky Tower this time, allowing him to go in!"

"Ah, indeed!"

Hearing the purpose of this time, a trace of sorrow appeared on each Old Gu’s wrinkled face. Once again, they recalled the crisis of the Lann Family and the evil creature suppressed at the very bottom of the Imperial Palace.

They had long felt that the Sealing Power was weakening steadily, and when the time came for that legendary powerful evil creature to emerge, they, even with their combined efforts, lacked the confidence to subdue it.

They only wanted to hold this martial arts tournament to select an unparalleled genius, who would then enter the Martial Arts Sky Tower to train and become stronger. After coming out, he would become an ally and join them in confronting the sealed Evil Object.

Otherwise, why would they have spent a Saint-Grade Treasure and allowed someone not bearing the Lann family name to enter the private Martial Arts Sky Tower of the Lann Family? If it were before, Shi Feng would have truly become the Prince Consort of the Tianlan Empire; without the Lann surname, it would have been impossible for him to enter.

"This kid, I hope nothing happens to him! Otherwise, that girl will be heartbroken!" Lann Yuan murmured as he looked at the Martial Arts Sky Tower.

The others had not left the Underground Palace, but Lann Yuan was different. As the Emperor of the Tianlan Empire, the ruler of the nation, he still attended the morning court and dealt with state affairs every day.

In the Imperial Palace, he had encountered that beloved girl of his multiple times. Since the night Shi Feng had rejected her, no one knew the girl better than her father. After all, she was his daughter, whom he had watched grow up. Lann Yuan could see that she had not been happy lately.

Moreover, Lann Yuan had summoned the palace maid Little Cui, who was close to his daughter. According to Little Cui’s report, the girl had often been lost in thought recently, and a few times he had even seen her secretly shedding tears!

"No matter what! Even if he truly dies in the Martial Arts Sky Tower, that girl must not find out!" Lann Yuan secretly said, already devising a plan—if he never came out from the Martial Arts Sky Tower, they would say that the young fellow had left without saying goodbye.

...

Heavenly Tower Seventh Floor! A world where purple flames soar into the sky!

Shi Feng had used the Silver Sickle to slay the Evil Dragon, flying through this world, breaking space for about an hour. Suddenly, the heavens and earth of this Purple Flame World began to shake violently, as if the entire space was quaking tremendously.

With the shaking of the heavens and earth, the purple flames on the ground also started to tumble, and huge pillars of purple flame shot up like massive fountains, reaching for the heavens.

Not only the ground, but also from the sky above, huge balls of purple flame fell down, like meteors crashing to earth. Surrounded by this calamity, Shi Feng seemed as if he was suddenly in the midst of an apocalyptic world!

The dense pillars of purple flame surged towards Shi Feng while massive balls of fire rained down from the sky, hurtling towards him. At first, Shi Feng managed to resist with the Power of Fire from the Blood Sea.

But as time slowly passed, Shi Feng noticed that the soaring pillars of purple flame and the huge balls falling from the sky became more and more ferocious, more and more intense, and their power grew stronger!

With every surge of the purple light, the Blood-colored Blaze bursting out from him was snuffed out. The massive balls of purple flame fell, swallowing Shi Feng’s body in an instant.

Now, Shi Feng could only rely on the Blood-colored Battle Armor he wore to resist the ferocious and intense power of fire!

Shi Feng had no mind to calculate how many days had passed, only knowing that time dragged on endlessly as he resisted the violent Fiery Flames in this almost apocalyptic field!

On Shi Feng’s body, now entirely covered in burns from the flames, not a patch of unscathed flesh remained, and the handsome face he once had was utterly ruined!

"Boom! Boom!" The world erupted with violent roars, and Shi Feng, now experienced, knew that every time such a roaring sound came with such rhythm and such fluctuations, the Purple Blaze that scorched him would increase in intensity!
