Chapter 876 – On the Seventh Floor (2/2)
“It seems like you don’t understand the Suspended Tower quite well. The first five floors could be entered by anyone. There are some treasures in these places but they are scarce. From the sixth floor onwards, anyone who entered must go through another recognition process like the gate of entrance. Only geniuses with great luck and potential could enter the sixth floor and above. It is already considered not bad if one in a hundred could enter the sixth floor. As for the seventh and eighth floor, the probability is even lesser. Over the past ten years, only my big brother, Kong Yang had entered the eighth floor. As for the legendary ninth floor, no one had ever entered it before. Due to many people participating in this event every year, the treasures in the floors below the sixth floor are getting lesser and scarce.”
Kong Yu gave a short introduction about the Suspended Tower to Jiang Chen and Big Yellow.
“I see.”
Jiang Chen felt enlightened. It seemed like obtaining benefits wouldn’t be as simple.
“My father has already predicted that Leopard Wei will target Big Yellow in this tower. But since you have already defeated him, Big Yellow’s safety is secured now. Big Yellow possessed the great bloodline of a Divine Beast. He is very likely to produce miracles by entering the eighth floor and obtain the ancient inheritance of a chieftain. After that, his cultivation will grow by leaps and bounds. He could also gain a firm status in the Demon Race as well.”
Kong Yu said.
“That is of course.”
Big Yellow’s self-confidence had reached the extent of being shameless.
Later, Big Yellow and Jiang Chen went in different directions. They didn’t stop at the first floor like Kong Yu, and entered the second floor.
Jiang Chen didn’t feel the summoning signal from the second floor, so they proceeded to the third floor.
Unfortunately, he still couldn’t sense the signal even after reaching the fifth floor. The item that they were looking for wasn’t in the first five floors, which only meant that it was located in the floors above.
At any rate, Jiang Chen was sure about his own senses. There wouldn’t be a mistake that an item inside the tower was calling for him when he was still outside.
Very quickly, they had reached the door of the sixth floor.
This was an illusory door, unlike the doors of the first five floors. There was a rippling talisman pattern on the door. Clearly, anyone who wanted to enter the sixth floor must go through the recognition process first. There were a lot of geniuses who couldn’t enter the sixth floor because they weren’t recognize by the door.
Jiang Chen and Big Yellow were walking towards the door. The door opened automatically as if it could feel the extraordinariness in their blood. A man and a dog walked into the sixth floor in a relaxed way. After that, some geniuses started to follow from behind.
Many others were observing the changes outside the Suspended Tower. Initially, the first five floors were the brightest and the floors above it were dimmest. Currently, the sixth floor had grown brighter. They could see every spot of light illuminated from the sixth floor. Every light spot indicated a person.
Those high ranked elders revealed a smile when they saw the increasing light spots.
Half an hour later, the light spots increased by two hundred before it slowed down gradually.
“Nearly three hundred people have entered the sixth floor this year. This is better than last year.”
An elder said.
“But the seventh floor is still dim. I’m not sure how many of them are able to enter the seventh floor.”
Many of them were fixing their eyes at the seventh floor. The sixth floor was merely the checkpoint. Any genius who could enter the seventh floor was considered a true genius.
In the Suspended Tower, Jiang Chen and Big Yellow had circled around the sixth floor but got nothing. He didn’t feel any signs coming fromthe signal like before. So, they flew towards the seventh floor.
When they reached the door of seventh floor, Leopard Wei was already there. He darted the two of them a glance before he walked onto the seventh floor.
*Swoosh*
There wasn’t a single obstruction when he entered the seventh floor. The light in the seventh floor was lit up. People from outside could see the movement of light on the seventh floor clearly.
“Look, someone has entered the seventh floor. It’s Leopard Wei.”
“I’m not surprised. Leopard Wei entered the seventh floor last year as well. His target this time is the eighth floor.”
