Chapter 122: Chapter 117 A Bit of Germaphobia

"Key?" Everyone stared with wide, innocent eyes.

Being watched by such gazes, Ling Tian Sword Master felt a sense of achievement; he smiled slightly, "This is a key, a key to ascension to the Supreme."

Ling Tian Sword Master glanced at his empty teacup.

Shi Nian quickly filled it up for him, simultaneously completing the routine task of respecting an elder.

Ling Tian Sword Master was satisfied. He took a small sip and lowered his voice, adopting a mysterious demeanor.

"It is said that deep within the Demon Domain, there hides a tall tower. The tower one day descended from the sky into the Demon Domain. After its arrival, dozens of translucent Spiritual Pearls appeared on the tower, which then scattered in all directions. Some went to the Demon Clan, some to the Demon Clan, and some arrived in the Cultivation World. On the day the Spiritual Pearls emerged, a voice descended from the sky. The voice declared that those who ingest the Spiritual Pearls, once their Spiritual Power transforms, may approach the Heavenly Dome Tower. The Heavenly Dome Tower has nine layers, each layer offering a different opportunity—the higher one ascends, the better the opportunities become. Initially, Master too ventured into this Heavenly Dome Tower; I reached the Sixth Layer. In the Sixth Layer, I acquired the inheritance of Swordsmanship, and with the aid of the tower, I comprehended the Sword Intent. The existence of Sword Intent is precisely why I firmly superseded that rascal."

Ling Tian Sword Master appeared quite pleased with himself.

Back then, among the younger generation of the Divine Martial Sect, he possessed the best Talent. This Spiritual Pearl was given to him. Back then, the rascal was very envious, but sadly, since he was not as skilled, he could only curse in secret.

This time.

The Spiritual Pearl has fallen into the hands of his Disciple.

If nothing unexpected happens.

When Lu Xingzhi returns with the inheritance, that Li Nanfeng will only fall further behind him.

"The Sixth Layer? Master, did anyone ever reach the Ninth Layer?" Shi Nian asked curiously.

Ling Tian Sword Master’s expression turned solemn, and he slowly spoke: "The Heavenly Dome Tower has been in this world for three thousand years. Throughout these three thousand years, only one person has reached the Eighth Layer. As for the legendary Ninth Layer, no one has ever set foot on it. The person who reached the Eighth Layer is now the Supreme Elder Lin Bai of the Emperor Extreme Sect. It is said that his Cultivation reached the peak of Mahayana Realm long ago, and had the path to ascension not been severed, he would have already ascended to the Upper Realm. In this world, Lin Bai is undoubtedly the foremost person."

"The foremost person?" A cheeky voice echoed in Shi Nian’s mind: "Host, go and fight him. Did this title of the foremost person ever inquire about me, Xiaotong?"

Shi Nian couldn’t help saying, "Have you been listening to Yin Yu’s system too much that you’ve gone mad? I’m only at the Divinity Transformation Stage now. You want me to fight someone at the peak of Mahayana?"

In Shi Nian’s thoughts.

Xiaotong had said, level 100 for ascension.

That level 100 is probably the Mahayana Realm.

She’s now at level 90.

And the levels, the further you go, the harder it is to advance.

She should be around the Divinity Transformation Stage, right?

Xiaotong snorted coldly, "With me here, what are you afraid of! Charge, snatch this title of ’the best under the heavens’, only then can we truly esteem the invincible system."

Shi Nian smiled slightly and directly muted Xiaotong’s voice.

This thing’s gone crazy.

She hasn’t gone mad yet.

"Master, is the Heavenly Dome Tower dangerous?" Lin Tiantian asked worriedly.

Ling Tian Sword Master smiled slightly, "Why is this Spiritual Pearl so precious? A significant reason is that the Heavenly Dome Tower is purely a Trial Land. Even if one fails at a certain layer, there is no threat to life. Furthermore, if one is injured after the challenge, the Heavenly Dome Tower will even help restore you to your prime condition. It can be said that there are only benefits and no disadvantages; everyone speculates that this tower might be a gift from a strong being of the Immortal World to this world."

Ling Tian Sword Master thought for a bit and then said, "The greatest danger in this tower, however, comes from those prodigies who enter with you. When the Heavenly Dome Tower first descended, several incidents occurred where prodigies fought among themselves, ending up both sides injured or even dead. Such unparalleled geniuses, anyone would lament their death. Hence, after several occurrences, Cultivators, the Demon Clan, and the Demon Clan reached a consensus to set an agreement. Inside the Heavenly Dome Tower, it is forbidden to kill each other. Violators will be abandoned by all three parties. After the agreement was established, the danger within the Heavenly Dome Tower has been nearly zero. Xingzhi, this is a tremendous opportunity; you must grasp it well, understand?"

Ling Tian Sword Master was saying this when he glanced up.

Lu Xingzhi was daydreaming.

Ling Tian Sword Master frowned slightly: "Xingzhi?"

Lu Xingzhi was still daydreaming.

Ling Tian Sword Master couldn’t help but smack him on the head.

Lu Xingzhi suddenly came to his senses, staring at Ling Tian Sword Master somewhat blankly: "Master...?"

"I’m talking about you! What are you daydreaming about!" Ling Tian Sword Master said.

Lu Xingzhi fell silent for a while, then asked, "Master, is this Spiritual Pearl the one you used before?"

Ling Tian Sword Master slightly raised his eyebrows: "Of course! Initially, there were fifty Spiritual Pearls, many of which got lost after scattering, and the remaining ones were collected by various major forces. It’s quite an achievement for our Divine Martial Sect to have obtained one."

Lu Xingzhi fell silent again: "So... Master, have you swallowed this Spiritual Pearl before?"

Ling Tian Sword Master was about to nod when suddenly, he realized something and knocked on Lu Xingzhi’s head heavily: "What do you mean? Are you despising me?"

Lu Xingzhi felt somewhat aggrieved: "But it has your saliva on it..."

He’s just a tad germophobic, isn’t he?

Ling Tian Sword Master’s face darkened: "Were you daydreaming about all this nonsense just now?"

Feeling a sense of danger, Lu Xingzhi instinctively shook his head.

"Let’s get going." Shi Nian cleverly slipped away.

The others quickly followed suit.

Lu Xingzhi only managed to grab Yun Jian’s sleeve, giving him a pleading look.

Yun Jian gave him a resolute look and then cut off the sleeve directly.

After everyone left.

Screams of agony from Lu Xingzhi echoed inside the cabin.

"The last time second senior brother screamed that miserably was because he deliberately smashed Master’s wine cup."

"That set of wine cups had three cups in it. How could second senior brother stand it. He had no choice."

"I remember once. When Master was teaching a cultivation technique, he said to circulate it nine times, but senior brother insisted on doing it ten times. He almost deviated in his cultivation."

"That beating was also quite exhilarating. But after that, on the cultivation technique, senior brother didn’t dare to be obsessive-compulsive anymore."

Everyone discussed noisily.

Lu Zhuoyan clicked his tongue in wonder.

Who would have guessed.

The seemingly most honest Lu Xingzhi turned out to suffer the most beatings.

After Ling Tian Sword Master finished beating him with practiced ease, Lu Xingzhi casually covered up his bruises, then the door to the bamboo cabin opened once again.

Ling Tian Sword Master cleared his throat: "Next, let’s talk about some serious business."

So everything before wasn’t serious business?

Under everyone’s curious gaze, Ling Tian Sword Master glanced at Shi Nian: "Xiao Nian, this matter involves you."

It involves her?

Shi Nian’s expression grew serious.

Something even more important than the Spiritual Pearl, what could it be!
