Eighth floor of the Lamentation Tower.
Clang, clang, clang!
Two long swords, one red and one blue, kept clashing, sparking off flashes of fire and frost. The stray waves of power from their duel resulted in Bai Qi running around for cover, an unwilling participant in the mayhem.
The beast of the eighth floor was an evolved form of Hellfire, a Hellfire Sword Demon.
[Name]: Hellfire Sword Demon
[Race]: Soul Race
[Evolution Level]: First Stage, four Level
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Lord
[Racial skills]: Soul Burning Sword, Ignition, Intimidation
[Introduction]: A ghost controlling fire, condensed its body around a long sword, its greatest strength came from its greatest weakness.
Although it was still at the first stage, the Hellfire Sword Demons race level had stepped up a tier, becoming a lord-level monster.
Lord, as the name suggests, had the qualifications to command elites and the servant-level of the same race beasts. The most striking evidence was the compulsory skill Intimidation.
It was precisely because of this skill, Alpha, for the first time, couldnt utilize its advantage in speed and could only opt for a head-on collision with the Hellfire Sword Demon.
Fortunately, Alphas strength wasnt lacking either, in fact, it exceeded Bai Qis expectations. It wasnt at a disadvantage for the time being.
It was just that the currents of their duel were strong and turbulent. If Bai Qi hadnt run fast, he might already have been involved in the crossfire.
Bai Qi glanced at the surroundings which were as fiery as a volcano mouth, then at Alpha, whose ice armor showed signs of melting. He knew that this couldnt go on, so he gave Alpha a new instruction.
Alpha, one all-out attack!
Crackle, crackle!
(Understood!)
Alpha received the instruction. It abandoned defense and gathered all its energy into the Ice Sword. Then, with a flash, it struck a heavy blow on the Hellfire Sword Demon.
This blow carried all of Alphas strength. Its speed and momentum were incredibly fast, but gave away room for attack.
The Hellfire Sword Demon seized the opportunity. It side-stepped and stabbed out with its sword.
Alphas ice armor cracked, revealing a layer of blue bones beneath.
With a jingle sound, Alphas bones, now stronger than steel, resisted the Hellfire Sword Demons attack without any damage.
The Sword Demon, who had also lost its defense, was cut in half by Alpha. The transparent body rapidly retreated towards the fire sword as if it were liquid.
The Sword Demons main body was the large sword condensed with fire essence. As long as it returned to the large sword, it could regenerate itself quickly in this environment.
Just in the instant when the soul of the Sword Demon returned to the fire sword, Alpha grabbed the sword hilt. A strong electric current released from its gloves and enveloped the fire sword.
Ahhh!!!
With a scream, the Hellfire Sword Demon lost its combat power temporarily. Alpha immediately carried the Hellfire Sword Demon to Bai Qi.
Bai Qi grabbed the fire sword, and the bar of the Evolution Egg instantly surged by 20%, reaching 88%.
The Lord indeed gave a lot more than the elite, even if it was a low-level Lord.
Looking at the Beast Control Space, Bai Qi saw the black giant egg that had already cracked open, he nodded in satisfaction.
He originally thought it would take a lot of effort to evolve again, but now it seemed that it should be no problem.
I wonder how much progress the beast of the next level could provide. It would be comfortable if it is also 20%.
Bai Qi handed the fire sword back to Alpha. Looking at Alpha holding an ice sword in one hand and a fire sword in the other hand, he suddenly had another idea.
Pity that the fire sword was the Hellfire Sword Demons main body, it couldnt be kept. Otherwise, it could have stayed for Alpha to use it as a standby weapon.
Then, Alpha would have Frost Sorrow in one hand and Fire Joy in the other.
A double swords berserker, YYDS!
The effects of the strong electrical current didnt last long, and the Hellfire Sword Demon quickly showed signs of recovery, with the surrounding fire gradually converging towards the fire sword under its attraction.
Crack crack.
(Alpha, I dont like it this hot.)
Alpha transmitted a strong feeling of dislike and swung the filial piety sword, slicing the fire sword into two.
The teleportation circle slowly appeared, and a noticeably superior piece of Soul-nurturing Wood appeared in front of Bai Qi.
Finally, the last challenge.
Bai Qi let out a deep breath, suppressing his excitement as he lumped the
Soul-nurturing Wood and the Cold Spirit Iron he obtained from the sixth level into Alphas hands.
After that, Bai Qi used the Evolution Egg again.
Alpha had climbed from the first level all the way up to the eighth, consuming a significant amount of energy. The Evolution Egg could help Alpha recover from injuries and restore energy.
This was essentially using Bai Qis physical and spiritual energy to replenish Alphas magic.
Once the Black Iron Egg was formed, Bai Qi moved to one side and began to meditate.
This was something Bai Qi learned over the past few days: after using the Evolution Egg and then meditating, the efficiency of increasing his spiritual power would improve significantly.
Anyway, he had nothing to do for this hour, so he might as well.
If this were the outside world, he might not be in the mood to meditate.
An hour passed quickly, and Bai Qi and Alpha awoke together and entered the teleportation circle.
After everything spun around, Bai Qi arrived at the ninth level.
There was no Ice Field, no graveyard, no volcano spewing magma.
Only a black door, somewhat familiar in its design.
In front of the door, a red key was suspended silently in mid-air.
The ninth level was just like this?
Where was the legendary boss?
Where was the first-clear reward?
What about the inheritance rights of the Secret Realm Tower?
I am going to report this, the heartless game master is withholding benefits for the players!
Bai Qi instantly turned into a complainer, cursing at the Secret Realm.
After a round of complaining, Bai Qi eventually cooled down, walked over to the key, and tried to grasp it.
Immediately, a flood of information rushed into Bai Qis mind, and at the same time, a red fruit fell from the sky and landed in front of him.
But the current Bai Qi had no mood to care about this fruit, all his attention was immersed in the information brought by the key.
This owner of the Lamentation Tower, he really knows how to have fun!
Below the Lamentation Tower.
Gao Cheng was pacing anxiously at the entrance, while Lu Yuan was looking conflicted, staring unblinkingly at the entrance of the Secret Realm Tower.
He didnt particularly care about Bai Qi, he just needed to confirm how strong Bai Qi had become.
A Beast Master who had just contracted a skeleton soldier a month ago could now climb to the ninth level?
Even if that skeleton soldier had mutated, this was way too exaggerated.
Finally, after waiting for what seemed like forever, the runes of the ninth level solidified completely, and Bai Qis figure appeared at the entrance of the Secret Realm Tower.
Following behind him was Alpha, who was completely enveloped in Ice Armor.
This guys beast, is it really not a Shadow Bone Spike (Skeleton Soldier)?!
