Chapter 729 Hurry up and come out to play with me!
Jiang Wang stomped his feet on the ground, looked around, and his Qilin beast eyes were full of curiosity. He called out, "Hey, guardian of the next level, come out! I'm here, come out and play with me!"
As soon as the words were spoken, a clear, cold voice came from the shadows. The voice was pleasant to hear, but it carried a hint of coldness, as if it had no emotion at all: "I didn't expect that the guardian of the tower on the upper level couldn't stop you. It seems that your physical body is indeed quite capable."
Jiang Wang looked in the direction of the sound and saw a figure slowly emerge from the shadows. It was a woman dressed in a white dress, with long hair reaching her waist. She had an exquisite face, skin as white as snow, and a cold look in her eyes. She was surrounded by a rich aura of law, which was even stronger than that of the human guardians on the previous level. Clearly, her cultivation had reached the second level of the Law Realm.
Jiang Wang stared at the woman, his Qilin beast eyes filled with curiosity, his tone tinged with a hint of teasing: "Wow, I didn't expect the guardian of the next level to be such a beautiful girl! However, your aura is quite cold, colder than ice. Could you be a Saint of the Ice Attribute Law?"
The woman frowned slightly, her tone icy and devoid of any emotion: "Enough with the nonsense. I am the guardian of the second level of this secret realm tower. If you want to pass through this level, you either have to kill me or survive for three breaths after stepping onto the teleportation array. There is no other way."
"These two conditions again?"
Jiang Wang scoffed, his tone tinged with disdain, "I say, can't you tower guardians of the Secret Realm Tower come up with something new? It's always the same two conditions, I'm getting so bored!"
The woman's eyes turned cold, and her tone carried a hint of warning: "Boring? Just because you can pass the first level doesn't mean you can pass this one. I specialize in the laws of ice. My supernatural powers are far superior to the physical attacks of that power saint on the previous level. You'd better not be careless, or you'll suffer a terrible death."
"The Law of Ice?"
Jiang Wang's eyes lit up, and his tone was filled with excitement, "Interesting. It's just the Law of Ice. I want to see if your Law of Ice can freeze my body! Let me tell you, the body of my Qilin clan is impervious to water and fire, and fearless of cold and heat. Even the extreme cold ice might not be able to freeze me!"
"Insanity!"
The woman roared, and her aura of law erupted instantly. The law of ice surged wildly, the surrounding temperature plummeted, the moisture in the air condensed into ice, and a thick layer of solid ice quickly covered the ground. She raised her hand and countless ice blades rose from the ice surface, shooting towards Jiang Wang as she fired, coldly shouting, "Since you are so arrogant, then I will let you see the power of the law of ice!"
Jiang Wang remained unmoved, letting countless ice blades strike his body. The blades shattered instantly upon impact, making clanging sounds, completely failing to harm him in the slightest, not even a single hair on his body. He laughed and said, "How about that? I told you, your ice blades can't hurt me! Bring on something more powerful, or I'll really get bored to death!"
The woman's eyes narrowed, and her tone carried a hint of surprise: "I didn't expect that your physical body could actually withstand the attack of the Ice Law. It seems that the guardian of the tower on the previous level was not lying to me. Your physical body is indeed extremely powerful."
"That's natural!"
Jiang Wang said smugly, "I am a genius of the Qilin Clan, one in a hundred years. My physical body has been baptized by the Great Dao. Not to mention your Ice Law, even other elemental laws might not be able to harm me in the slightest! By the way, pretty girl, I have a few questions for you. If you answer them, I will leave on my own. How about it?"
"No comment!"
The woman's tone was resolute, without the slightest hesitation, "If you want to know the answer, you'll have to get through this level first. Either kill me, or endure three breaths of my attack; otherwise, don't expect to get any information from me."
"No comment again!"
With that, Jiang Wang pushed off the ground with all four hooves, his body instantly rushing towards the woman at incredible speed. In a flash, he arrived in front of her, his Qilin head slightly lowered, and he used his forehead to ram into the woman's chest, shouting as he did so, "I'll teach you to answer me! I'll teach you to be stubborn and punish me!"
The woman was clearly taken aback by Jiang Wang's attack, and a look of surprise crossed her face. However, she reacted quickly, immediately activating the Law of Ice to condense a thick ice wall in front of her. At the same time, she flashed back hundreds of feet, avoiding Jiang Wang's impact. As she retreated, she coldly shouted, "You ungrateful wretch! You actually dare to attack me first. Let's see how I deal with you!"
"boom!"
Jiang Wang's forehead slammed into the ice wall, shattering it instantly into countless ice shards that scattered across the ground. He didn't stop, continuing his charge towards the woman, his tone laced with provocation: "Is that all you've got? An ice wall can't stop me at all! Show me something powerful, or I'll just rush up to you and knock you flying!"
The woman's eyes were icy cold. Without further hesitation, she rapidly formed hand seals, and the laws of ice around her surged wildly. Countless ice pillars rose from the ground and smashed towards Jiang Wang. At the same time, she chanted incantations, and the laws of ice condensed into a giant ice palm, slamming towards Jiang Wang. She coldly shouted, "Laws of Ice, freeze heaven and earth!"
Jiang Wang sensed the power of the ice law, and his expression became more serious. However, he still did not choose to dodge. Instead, he pushed the defensive power of his Qilin body to the limit, his four hooves firmly planted on the ground, allowing countless ice pillars to smash into his body and huge ice palms to slam into him. While enduring the attacks, he laughed and said, "Bring it on! Bring it on! This power is not enough!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Countless ice pillars slammed into Jiang Wang's body, and a huge ice palm also slammed into him. The immense power of ice instantly spread throughout Jiang Wang's body, freezing the surrounding ground into solid ice. Jiang Wang's body was also covered by a thin layer of ice, but he was still unharmed. Even the thin layer of ice on his body was shattered by the power within his body.
Jiang Wang shook off the ice shards on his body, took a step forward, and continued charging towards the woman, his tone tinged with smugness: "How about that? Your ice magic can't hurt me! I think you'd better answer my question obediently, or I'll really have to be ruthless with you!"
The woman looked at Jiang Wang with shock and confusion in her eyes. She stared intently at him, her tone filled with disbelief: "How is this possible? My Ice Law is something even a Saint of the first level of the Law Realm might not be able to withstand. How come you are completely unharmed? What level is your physical body?"
The woman's eyes flickered, and after a long silence, she slowly spoke, her tone tinged with helplessness: "I can tell you some of the information, but you must promise me you won't ask too many questions. And you must get through this level; otherwise, even if I die, I will never tell you anything more." "Okay! I promise you!"
Jiang Wang nodded immediately, his tone filled with excitement, "Tell me, tell me, I won't press you. As long as you tell me even a part of the information, I will definitely get through this level!"
The woman took a deep breath, her tone tinged with complexity: "This secret tower has nine levels. The guardians of each level are stronger than those of the previous level, progressing from the first level of strength to the ninth level of law. I am the guardian of the second level, specializing in the law of ice, and my cultivation is at the second level of law."
"Nine levels? The Nine Heavens of Laws?"
Jiang Wang's eyes lit up, his tone filled with excitement, "Interesting, getting more and more interesting! Then tell me, what exactly is this secret realm tower? What is its relationship with the Primordial Realm and the Auspicious Realm? Are there any other unknown passages between the Primordial Realm and the Auspicious Realm?"
"I told you, don't ask too many questions!"
The woman's tone turned cold as she interrupted Jiang Wang, "I can only tell you that this secret realm tower is one of the hubs connecting the Primordial Realm and the Auspicious Realm, but it is not the only passage. As for the rest, I can't tell you anymore. You'd better take care of yourself!"
"Okay, okay, I won't ask any further!"
Jiang Wang shrugged helplessly, his tone tinged with disappointment, "But at least tell me one more thing: what race is the guardian of the upper level? Why was he imprisoned in this secret tower?"
The woman's eyes flickered, and her tone was hesitant. After a long silence, she slowly spoke: "He and I are both imprisoned here and forced to become tower guardians. As for what race he is, I can't tell you. I can only tell you that his race is very ancient, and his bloodline is very powerful. However, a part of it has been sealed, which is why he is trapped here and cannot leave."
"Imprisoned? Forced to become a tower guard?"
Jiang Wang frowned, his tone tinged with doubt, "Who imprisoned you? Why were you imprisoned and made into tower guardians? And who sealed his bloodline?"
"I told you, I can't tell you any more!"
The woman's tone was resolute: "You've asked too many questions already. If you ask any more, I will never tell you anything again. Moreover, I will do everything in my power to attack you. Even if I can't kill you, I will trap you here!"
Jiang Wang quickly waved his hand, his tone tinged with helplessness, "Alright, I know you can't say too much, so I won't force you. I'll go onto the teleportation array now and get through this level. However, I have one more request. Next time we meet, could you tell me a little more information?"
The woman remained silent for a long time before slowly nodding: "Okay, as long as you can get through each level and come to me, I will tell you some more information. But you must promise me that you will not ask too many questions, and you will not try to find out my identity or try to save me. You cannot save me or the other tower guardians."
"Okay! I promise you!"
Jiang Wang nodded immediately, his tone filled with excitement, "I will definitely get through every level and come here. When that happens, you must tell me more information!"
The woman didn't speak, but simply nodded, her eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions—helplessness, expectation, and a barely perceptible sadness.
Without further hesitation, Jiang Wang turned and walked towards the teleportation array. His four hooves landed firmly on the array, which instantly lit up with a dazzling light, enveloping Jiang Wang's figure. He turned to look at the woman and called out, "Beautiful girl, wait for me! I will definitely pass through every level and come back to see you! When that time comes, you must tell me some more news!"
As the woman watched Jiang Wang being enveloped in the light of the teleportation array, she murmured softly, "I hope you can keep your word, and I hope you can conquer all the floors and unlock the secrets of this secret tower. Perhaps, only you can save us all..."
Jiang Wang did not hear the woman's murmurs. He only felt himself being enveloped by a warm light. His body moved quickly again, the surrounding space was constantly distorted, and the whistling wind could be heard in his ears. Before long, the light dissipated, and Jiang Wang's figure appeared on the third floor of the Secret Realm Tower.
This level of the secret tower is much more spacious than the previous two. The surrounding stone walls are dark red and covered with densely packed runes. The runes shimmer with dark red light and exude a strong aura of the law of fire. The air is filled with a scorching atmosphere and the temperature is extremely high, as if one is in a sea of fire. Even the surrounding space is slightly distorted by the heat.
Jiang Wang stomped his feet on the ground, feeling the scorching temperature around him. His Qilin beast eyes were full of curiosity. He called out, "Hey, guardian of the third floor, come out! I'm here. Come out and play with me!"
No sooner had the words been spoken than a rough voice came from the shadows. The voice was loud and loud, with a hint of irritability, like an angry beast: "Boy, you actually managed to pass the first two levels. It seems that your physical body is indeed quite capable. However, this level is my territory. I specialize in the Law of Fire. No matter how strong your physical body is, it may not be able to withstand my fire attack!"
Jiang Wang looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall figure slowly emerge from the shadows. It was a burly man wearing black armor, with a robust build, standing a hundred feet tall, with a ferocious face covered in scars. He was surrounded by a dense aura of the Law of Fire, an aura even stronger than that of the woman on the second level. Clearly, his cultivation had reached the third level of the Law Realm.
Jiang Wang stared at the burly man, his Qilin beast eyes filled with curiosity, his tone tinged with a hint of teasing: "Wow, I didn't expect the guardian of the third floor to be such a burly man! However, your aura of the Law of Fire is quite violent, even more so than the flames of my Qilin clan. Could you be a Saint of the Law of Fire?"
The burly man frowned, his tone irritable and impatient: "Enough nonsense! I am the guardian of the third level of this secret realm tower. If you want to pass this level, you either kill me, or survive three breaths after stepping onto the teleportation array. There is no third way! Hurry up and do it, don't waste my time here!"
