Chapter 129 Things Inside the Ninth Floor
Reading Settings
However, Lu Fuyue did not answer their questions. After all, she couldn't very well say that she possessed the power of the phoenix bloodline, which was why she had inherited many of the phoenix clan's legacies.
For example, these eyes that can see through all illusions.
Therefore, she was not only able to sense their presence, but also to recognize their identities at a glance.
Seeing that Lu Fuyue had no intention of speaking, the two stopped worrying about it.
On the contrary, the stronger Lu Fuyue is, the greater her chances of entering the ninth level, and the happier they are.
"Although we are artifact spirits, our memories are incomplete, so we don't know what is imprisoned inside."
"However, one thing we are certain of is that once what is inside comes out, it will be the time of the destruction of the Tianxuan Sect."
Lu Fuyue pursed her lips, lowered her eyes to hide her emotions, and remained silent for a long time.
The Tianxuan Sect is different.
Although there are some people she doesn't like here, there are also many people who genuinely care about her and love her, such as Uncle Law Enforcement, her master, Elder Yuqing, and many senior brothers and sisters.
She simply couldn't bear to watch the Tianxuan Sect perish, especially since Jin Qinxian was also on the ninth level.
Therefore, she must go up to the ninth floor!
However, it's one thing for her to be willing, but it's another for others to force her.
Lu Fuyue pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "But what does all of this have to do with the Water Spirit Holy Body?"
The fat elder's expression was somewhat complicated, and he didn't know where to begin.
Just then, the thin elder suddenly spoke up, "Because the beloved of that founding ancestor was a cultivator with the Water Spirit Saint Body, the inheritance left by the ancestor on the ninth floor of the Trial Tower can only be obtained by someone with the Water Spirit Saint Body."
"Only by obtaining the inheritance can we kill what's inside, and only then will the crisis of the Tianxuan Sect be resolved."
"The seal and barrier on the ninth level can only last for another 150 years, so you must cultivate to the point of exiting the body within this time and enter the ninth level of the Trial Tower."
The portly elder noticed something was wrong with Lu Fuyue's expression and assumed she was unwilling, so he spoke again.
We don't want you juniors to get involved in this risky situation, after all, your cultivation level isn't high enough yet, and you're still young.
"But some things are beyond our control."
The thin elder looked at Lu Fuyue and sighed, "We know that what we said today may have a coercive tone, but for the future of Tianxuan Sect, we have no choice but to do this."
After a long silence, Lu Fuyue raised her eyes and looked directly at the two of them. "Even if I agree to your request, with my current cultivation level, I cannot enter the ninth level."
She knew perfectly well that, from any perspective, she had to go.
Since we can't avoid it, let's try to gain some benefits for ourselves.
Seeing Lu Fuyue's tone, the fat elder knew that she had probably agreed.
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "Don't worry about that. As long as you agree, the most advanced cultivation resources of the Tianxuan Sect will be allocated to you. The two of us will also personally devise a suitable cultivation method for you, so that your cultivation can break through to the Nascent Soul stage or even the Out-of-Body stage within a hundred years."
A hint of doubt flashed in Lu Fuyue's eyes, "There are only a handful of cultivators in the entire cultivation world who have reached the Nascent Soul stage."
"There are quite a few people in this world with high cultivation talent. For example, Uncle Law Enforcement was once a rare genius in the world, but now he can only stay at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage and his cultivation cannot advance any further."
"The reason why they are stuck at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage for so many years and cannot break through is not because of their cultivation talent, but because the spiritual energy of Qingyuan Continent is too thin and insufficient to nurture so many people in the Out-of-Body stage."
Lu Fuyue paused for a moment, then asked, "Could it be that your two senior uncles have a way to solve the problem of the thin spiritual energy in Qingyuan?"
The thin elder shook his head somewhat awkwardly, "No, that's not the case."
If they could solve this problem, they probably wouldn't have placed their hopes of entering the ninth level on this little girl.
However, isn't this a secret that only cultivators who have reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage or above can know?
How could this little girl know so much? Did Dan tell her?
Lu Fuyue interrupted them again, speaking calmly, "If there is no such possibility, then why did you two senior uncles say that it would be possible for me to break through to the Nascent Soul stage within a hundred years?"
The fat elder and the thin elder exchanged a glance, then nodded and turned their gaze to Lu Fuyue. "Have you ever heard of a spatial trial immortal artifact?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Fuyue's eyes, and she suddenly understood something.
She looked around the place, then asked uncertainly, "This trial tower, could it be the legendary immortal artifact, the Space Trial Tower?"
The Immortal Artifact Space Trial Tower—just from the name, you can tell it's related to space.
Legend has it that the Space Trial Tower was a celestial artifact brought down from the upper realm by a fallen immortal. It has the ability to alter the flow of space and can also test the weaknesses of cultivators.
It can greatly shorten cultivation time and increase cultivation level.
Unexpectedly, this immortal artifact was actually in the Tianxuan Sect, and had become an ordinary trial tower.
The fat elder and the thin elder nodded. "You guessed right, we are the tower spirits of the Space Trial Tower."
Lu Fuyue suddenly remembered something, and a storm of emotions surged through her heart.
She remembered that the Tianxuan Sect was founded hundreds of thousands of years ago, which happened to be the time she traveled back in time.
At that time, she had not heard of the existence of the Tianxuan Sect. On the contrary, the Sword Sect was one of the most famous sects at that time.
Since she prevented Yun Jing from falling in love with Mu Wanwan, the great battle that caused the spiritual energy of Qingyuan Continent to decline should not have occurred. However, after her return, the concentration of spiritual energy in Qingyuan Continent did not change.
Did a great war still break out between the demon race and the human race after she left?
The more Lu Fuyue thought about it, the more alarmed she became. Logically speaking, if a figure like the founding patriarch had appeared back then, he could have ascended to enlightenment as a mortal and established his own sect.
How come there's not a sound at all?
A chill crept up Lu Fuyue's back. So, either the founding patriarch of the Tianxuan Sect attained enlightenment and ascended to immortality after she left.
Either the fat and thin elders are lying, or all the records about the founding ancestor in the Tianxuan Sect's library are false.
If it's the former, that's fine, but if it's the latter, then what exactly does this founding ancestor want to do, or what is the purpose of the person behind all this?
