The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 315
Chapter 315 Ancient God’s Tower (1)
The depths of the gate were pitch-black, like a bottomless black hole. Li Qing followed the crowd into the Ancient God Pagoda with a perturbed mood.
He only felt his eyes go blurry, and a feeling of dizziness came over, and then his line of sight returned to normal. Looking closely, there was actually another heaven inside. He was in a boundless mountain range, and there were blue skies and white clouds in the sky, just like the Great Thousand Worlds outside.
The rest of them had long since disappeared, and it was clear that everyone had been teleported to a different location.
“What a big world in the pagoda!” Li Qing was shocked. Before he entered the Ancient God Pagoda, he had already understood that there was another small world inside. It was created by the Ancient God.
However, when he truly saw the scene inside, he had no choice but to admire the miraculous might of this mighty expert.
“I don’t know if the sun in the sky is the sun outside. I don’t believe that this major power has the ability to create the sun, moon, and stars!” Li Qing guessed in his heart.
This ancient god pagoda was Ancient Gods Clan’s treasure, and it was also the training ground for the young people of Ancient Gods Clan. Only Ancient Gods Clan youths younger than forty could enter, and those older than that could not.
Therefore, the Heavenly Alliance had obtained the Ancient God Pagoda for so many years. Powerful figures were simply unable to enter. Only those geniuses on the Dragon-Phoenix Rankings could be sent.
This pagoda was immovable. It contained the power of a small thousand worlds. It was unparalleled in the world. No wonder no one in the world was able to seize this ancient divine pagoda.
The Ancient God Tower had a total of seven floors, and the difficulty of each floor was different. The first floor was considered the simplest. Generally speaking, anyone with good strength could pass. It was not difficult for someone at Li Qing’s level.
“The spiritual energy here is very dense!” Li Qing took a deep breath and exclaimed in his heart.
The Ancient God Pagoda had opened for several decades, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon. Of course, there were countless spiritual energy accumulated in it, all of which were stored inside. One could imagine how dense the spiritual energy here was.
The higher the level, the denser the spiritual energy. This was only the first floor, the lowest level of spiritual energy in the Ancient God Pagoda. However, there were such concentrations, let alone higher levels.
If you cultivate here, your speed will be much faster than the outside world. In particular, the breakthrough of many bottlenecks required such a rich spiritual energy environment.
In order to ascend to the second floor, one had to hunt a demonic beast above the fifth rank, obtain its inner core, and then use this inner core to open the door leading to the second floor of the pagoda.
A Fifth Grade Monster King was equivalent to a fifth level Xiantian Monarch.
To do such a task, killing a Tier 5 Monster King level monster beast was secondary. The most important thing was to find demonic beasts of this level. After all, there were more people entering this place, and the number of demonic beasts was relatively small. Not only did they have to fight against demonic beasts, they also had to fight against humans.
If he wasn’t lucky enough to find a demonic beast of this level, he could only stay on the first floor until the Ancient God Pagoda ended.
Of course, Li Qing wasn’t afraid of this. Even if he couldn’t find a Fifth Grade Monster King, he could still find a Sixth Grade Monster King, or even a Seventh Grade Monster King. After killing him, he would still be able to obtain his inner core and pass.
After all, there weren’t many geniuses who could kill a Tier 6 or even a Tier 7 Monster King. The competition is certainly not that intense.
In this world of the first floor, not to mention the demonic beasts of rank seven demon kings, there were many rank eight and even rank nine demon kings. Otherwise, how could he show a sense of crisis?
This was an experience, not a tour. If there was no danger, it would not be able to show the effects of the experience. Therefore, there were many powerful demonic beasts on this level of the world. They were filled with danger and could die at any time.
Li Qing randomly chose a direction and walked forward. Not long after, he encountered a demonic beast that jumped out and blocked his path.
This was just an ordinary demonic beast. Its strength was very weak, so Li Qing casually crushed it to death. However, it could be seen from this that there were so many demonic beasts in this world that they could encounter demonic beasts every time they walked.
After walking for more than half a day, Li Qing also encountered a Demon King level demon beast. It was just a low level demon king, and it did not meet the requirements.
In this world, he wasn’t in a hurry to go to the second floor. He could stay as long as he wanted until the Ancient God Pagoda ended.
The Ancient God Pagoda was open for a year, and after a year, it would be forcibly teleported away.
Not long after, a huge earth mountain bag appeared in front of Li Qing. There was a stone tablet in front of the mountain bag. Li Qing walked forward curiously and saw that there were some characters carved on the stone stele.
These fonts are the language of… Ancient Gods Clan!
Before coming here, Li Qing had already learned most of the languages of Ancient Gods Clan. There were historical records of this aspect in the Heavenly Alliance that could be learned by others.
Li Qing had already made preparations in many aspects, so he naturally wouldn’t miss out on learning this language.
He quickly read the words on the stone stele. Originally, this was a cemetery, and there was a Ancient Gods Clan expert buried inside.
Looking at the size of this huge earth mountain bag, Li Qing could guess how huge this corpse was. Rumors had it that Ancient Gods Clan’s average height was more than 30 feet. It seemed that this was not a lie.
The Ancient God Pagoda was not only the training ground for Ancient Gods Clan’s youth, but also the graveyard for Ancient Gods Clan’s experts! There were rumors that these experts would leave behind inheritances and all sorts of treasures in the Ancient God Pagoda before they died!
This was also a great opportunity in the Ancient God Pagoda. It was to search for the treasures and inheritances of the deceased experts of Ancient Gods Clan! Someone had benefited tremendously from this.
However, the first level was the lowest level. It could be predicted that the strength of the experts buried on this level would not be much stronger than Li Qing’s. Perhaps it was similar to Li Qing’s strength. The inheritance and treasures left behind by such a figure were of no value at all.
Li Qing was too lazy to look for the inheritance of these Ancient Gods Clan experts. It was important to look for demonic beasts.
Sometimes, the more anxious they were, the more they couldn’t find it. Li Qing had encountered such a situation right now. For some reason, he hadn’t encountered a demonic beast above the Fifth Grade Monster King for two consecutive days.
On the other hand, there were quite a few cemeteries of experts from Ancient Gods Clan. There were even many cemeteries that were directly dug up by people. They were extremely cruel. It was obvious that the newcomers wanted to see if there were any treasures inside the coffin.
Li Qing buried these cemeteries. The deceased was large and buried safely.
However, during this period, he really encountered the inheritance of an expert. On the tombstone, he said that as long as he kowtowed a few times in front of the tomb and worshipped the deceased as his master, he would be able to obtain the inheritance.
Of course, Li Qing couldn’t easily kowtow for a mere inheritance. Perhaps the strength of the deceased wasn’t as powerful as his, so he didn’t kowtow and directly left.
This world was really big. Li Qing had walked for such a long time, yet he didn’t even meet a single person. He didn’t know where they were located.
Not long after, Li Qing saw a magnificent building. It was a hillock-like hall that was a hundred feet tall and looked like a giant’s palace. There were four words written on it: “Ancient God’s Palace”.
Li Qing knew that this was the entrance to the second floor. In the center of this world, only those who had killed a Tier 5 Monster King could enter with an inner core in their hands.
In front of the Ancient God Hall stood a few young men. They were the geniuses on the Dragon-Phoenix Rankings who entered the Ancient God Pagoda with Li Qing.
When they saw Li Qing appear, their pupils shrank and their faces became strange.
“What are you doing standing in front of the Ancient God Palace?” Li Qing was a little curious. Even though they were both competitors, Li Qing had never thought of attacking them for no reason.
“Nothing much. Waiting here for someone. What are you doing here? Could it be that you have already collected the Demon King’s inner core?” Their eyes were strange. They saw that Li Qing’s gaze seemed to be looking at a prey, but there was a faint sense of fear and nervousness in it.
Li Qing was puzzled in his heart. After thinking about it carefully, he could almost guess the purpose of these people.
These people were clearly robbers standing here! As long as one wanted to ascend to the second floor, they had to pass through the Ancient God Palace.
Those who wished to enter the Ancient God Hall usually had inner pills. As long as they waited here, wouldn’t it be enough to snatch the inner pills from their hands?
Speaking of which, this was really a good idea. However, it was a crooked path, and his thoughts were somewhat malicious.
All of them were geniuses, and their strengths were extremely great. Together, they could suppress almost everyone on the Dragon-Phoenix Rankings. Even a Wind Lightning Swordsman could not defeat the crowd by himself!
Of course, apart from Li Qing, they were not confident. After all, this was a vicious person who could kill a seventh level Xiantian.
In fact, facing Li Qing at this moment, they were also eager to try. Because they felt that there were many people, they wanted to challenge Li Qing’s dignity and see if this fellow was really that powerful.
However, they were a little afraid that they would fail, so they didn’t make a move.
Li Qing said, “I have the Demon King’s inner core. Then what do you want to do next?”
He wanted to entice these people to take action.
The opponents hesitated for a moment. There was a struggle in their eyes. They were all afraid that they would not be able to defeat Li Qing even if they joined forces. They looked at each other and said, “You can go in. Your strength has the qualifications to pass!”
The risk is too great for them to take any risks.
Li Qing shook his head and laughed. He was really cautious. He didn’t bother to pay any attention to them and directly left this place.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Li Qing leave. They soon understood that Li Qing was trying to trick them into taking action, and they were all covered in cold sweat.
“This fellow is clearly fearless. He is too hateful. When I become stronger in the future, I will definitely make him look good!” Someone said fiercely, feeling a sense of humiliation in his heart.
The rest of them looked at Li Qing’s departing back with gloomy expressions as well. They secretly thought of returning this humiliation in the future.
If Li Qing knew what they were thinking, he would definitely disdain them and ignore them. These few people followed a crooked path, and their minds were fragile. They refused to go out to hunt demonic beasts. How great would they be in the future? I’m afraid I can’t even comprehend the true meaning of martial arts.
