Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 580: Chapter 580: Mysterious Furnace_1

Ling Xiao looked towards the mountaintop.

Surrounding the Land of Ten Thousand Thunderbolts was terrifying thunder and lightning, but most of the mountain lacked it, with the exception of the very peak where a separate thunderstorm had formed, even more formidable than the surrounding storms.

There must be something strange!

He increased his pace to reach the mountaintop and unexpectedly discovered an astonishing scene.

Within that thunderstorm, there was actually a furnace.

Inside the furnace burned purple flames.

What surprised him the most was that he could actually sense a trace of life within the furnace.

Could it be that someone was trapped in the furnace being refined as medicine?

Could this have been the work of the Moon Blossom Fairy?

In an instant, his mind was flooded with numerous questions, as the scene before him was exceedingly bizarre.

The furnace, as tall as a person, continuously burned with flames, emitting an essence that seemed to stem from one’s origins.

Ling Xiao even suspected that this furnace had been in this very spot for a hundred thousand years.

And the being thrown into the furnace, to have withstood a hundred thousand years without being refined, was certainly an astoundingly remarkable thing.

”Should I open the furnace?”

Ling Xiao felt a bit conflicted in his heart.

Whatever the Moon Blossom Fairy had thrown into the furnace was likely no trivial matter, and releasing it could potentially cause enormous trouble.

However, curiosity made it hard for Ling Xiao to suppress the urge to open the furnace.

The trouble was that even the Mountain and River Martial Soul couldn’t discern what exactly was inside the furnace.

To open, or not to open?

That was the question.

”Fortune favors the bold! Open it!”

After pondering for a while, Ling Xiao finally made his decision.

He was not a man to shrink from fear. An opportunity of such magnitude awaited him, and if he were to forsake it out of cowardice, that would be the true waste.

The Land of Ten Thousand Thunderbolts, a terrain so treacherous it could pulverize those in the Heavenly Man Realm to dust, held something like this. It couldn’t possibly be anything but a treasure.

Besides, one glance at the furnace and it was evident that it was no ordinary object, seemingly akin to some potent Martial Soul Inheritance.

Even if it wasn’t the Martial Soul of the Moon Blossom Fairy, it was surely the Martial Soul of a mighty being from the Ancient Era. Not to mention, just acquiring this furnace would be a tremendous boon.

Having set his resolve, Ling Xiao once again activated the Mountain and River Martial Soul and began analyzing the thunderstorm around the furnace, seeking an opportunity to break it open.

This was the Land of Ten Thousand Thunderbolts, a place where no monsters could possibly enter to disturb him. Therefore, at this moment, he might be considered the safest person in the entire Moon Blossom Pagoda.

Dai Yuling was struggling between life and death trying to seize her opportunity, her fate hinging on destiny’s whim.

Leng Hao, once again pursued by monsters, had no choice but to flee in panic.

The most miserable, perhaps, was Tantai Lingzi.

In this short period, she had been killed three times, now left with only five lives.

But even as she fled for her life, her potential completely erupted, and she achieved another breakthrough in her cultivation level.

She had reached the Intermediate Stage of the Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer, which could also be considered a type of gain.

It was just unfortunate that while she ran for her life, completely caught up in escape, she had no time to search for treasures, especially since the best items in the third level were Precious Treasure Artifacts and Gold-superior Level Martial Arts.

Originally, Black Spirit City contained many valuable items, it was just too bad they had all been destroyed by Ling Xiao.

So even if Tantai Lingzi truly found the time to acquire some items, their quality couldn’t compare to what the three individuals in the fourth level had found.

She was only able to survive this long because she had nine lives. Any other disciple would have long since perished.

Unlike her, though Leng Hao was also being pursued and seemed to be in dire straits, the items he acquired were much better than those of Tantai Lingzi.

”Tsk, it looks like there’s no way out. I’ve eaten all the pills that restore True Essence, and this guy is still on my heels!”

Leng Hao revealed a hint of a smile on his face and suddenly yelled into the sky, ”Senior Brother Ling, I’m taking off first. Good luck to you!”

”Remaining number of people: three!”

The cold reminder voice from Moon Blossom Pagoda was always there, it’s just that everyone was too preoccupied with being chased or busy with their own matters to pay attention.

Outside the Moon Blossom Pagoda, on the ninth day of the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony.

Whoosh!

Another figure was thrown out.

”Sigh, to think I only got fourth place. I had hoped for at least second.”

Leng Hao, who was thrown out of the Moon Blossom Pagoda, began to talk to himself.

”You little brat, not bad at all! Hahaha.”

The Golden Light Heavenly Lord transformed into a lingering shadow and swiftly moved next to Leng Hao, naturally to protect him.

Nowadays, many people believed that Leng Hao was colluding with Ling Xiao and other fellow sect members to set up traps for others, and without being cautious, Leng Hao might actually get ambushed.

”Master, hehe, it’s all thanks to Senior Brother Ling’s blessing. If not for you having Senior Brother Ling give me a harsh lesson before that snapped me out of it, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve such good results.”

Leng Hao was incredibly excited to see the Golden Light Heavenly Lord.

Although he was severely injured inside the Moon Blossom Pagoda, as long as he wasn’t hurt by an abnormal force like the avatar of the Demonflame Celestial, he would fully recover upon exiting, so there were no abnormalities right now.

”Oh?”

The Golden Light Heavenly Lord revealed a smile, but there was also a hint of worry.

”Tell me about the situation.”

He asked.

Leng Hao went through the process briefly, the first, second, and third challenges were exactly as Shangguan Lei described, except he supplemented certain details.

For example, there was the incident about someone trying to rob Ling Xiao of a treasure and ended up being killed and eliminated by him.

And then there was the case of Bai Feifei and others trying to lure the Five-faced Monster to kill Ling Xiao.

All the details that Shangguan Lei omitted were fully mentioned by him.

”Leng Hao, you’ve colluded with that Ling Xiao, so naturally, you’re on his side.”

Bai Feifei accused loudly.

”Damn, I’ve never seen a woman as shameless as you. You call yourself a senior sister, but you’re not even as good as a chicken—the chickens in the secular world at least have professional integrity!”

Leng Hao couldn’t help but curse out loud.

”Alright Hao’er, let’s not talk about this. Justice lies within the hearts of people. Talk about your results.”

The Golden Light Heavenly Lord knew very well that anything Leng Hao said now would be useless. Certain individuals would absolutely not believe him. Instead of wasting words, it was better to wait for Ling Xiao to come out and confront him face to face.

”Hehe, Master, don’t be shocked, but I’ve earned one thousand five hundred Yuehua Points this time!”

One thousand five hundred points! Indeed more than Shangguan Lei! A full three hundred more!

The crowd couldn’t help but feel surprised and envious.

”Anything else?”

The Golden Light Heavenly Lord inquired.

Just as Leng Hao was about to speak, Chang Yueying’s voice rang out.

In her hands, she held a piece of golden foil shimmering with light, which was the performance feedback from the Moon Blossom Pagoda.

”Final results, entered into the fourth challenge, earned one thousand eight hundred Yuehua Points. Huh, seems like there are three hundred more points than what Leng Hao mentioned. Additionally, obtained two Immortal-grade Treasures, a set of Gold-top Level Martial Arts, and one Transcendent Pill!”

Good heavens, these results were truly astounding.

Upon hearing Chang Yueying’s words, the audience was utterly amazed.
