Chapter 157: Shock

Chapter 157: Shock

“It seems like he’s not going to stop on level 65! Years ago, Yang Mietian of the Bat Clan from Qingling region obtained a top-tier method from level 65. He was the one who led Bat Clan out of the caverns and onto the land,” said a Fox Clan elder.

Needless to say, no one should mess around with the Li family of the Human Race.

“He’s at level 66 now!” a Tiger Clan elder exclaimed.

Level 66… that meant that Li Mu had surpassed Yang Mietian from years ago.

The prodigies from various clans continued to gather in front of the stone slab.

More of them had returned after failing the Demon Tower trial. They were relaying their experiences to the juniors in their clan.

A Wolf Clan prodigy finally couldn’t restrain himself anymore, and walked into the Demon Tower in big steps. “I’m going in, if a puny Human can do it, I can too!”

He was kicked out a short while later.

The first thing he did after being kicked out was to go back to the stone slab to ask about Li Mu.

“Which level is he on now?”

“Level 71, and he’s still going up!”

“What! It’s so tough, how did he manage to get so high?”

Level 71!

That’s as good as the top-tier prodigies on the continent.

No…

It should be as good as the top-tier prodigies in the entire history of the continent.

The Demon Tower has existed for many years.

Yet there were only a little more than a hundred individuals who had managed to reach level 71.

“Whoever this man is, I really want to meet him,” said Feng Baiqing with a pale face.

He’s already at level 71.

Before coming, it was the best result that he had hoped for.

Yet it was realized by a human whom no one has heard of before, right in front of his eyes.

He had even thought that if he was lucky enough to reach level 71, that he would be able to make his clan proud.

The agitation on Feng Baiqing’s expression was obvious. Beside him, Thunder’s face darkened like a storm.

“Find out where this guy came from,” Ao Guangzhi said solemnly. “When he comes out of the tower, I want to meet him!”

When did such an opponent appear on this land?

Not to mention that this guy was from Fenglan.

Before entering the Land of Demon Slayers, Ao Guangzhi had ruthlessly bludgeoned nearly all of the masters from Fenglan. He didn’t think that payback would come so soon.

“Level 72!”

The expressions of the crowd started to change again.

“Is this really the rise of the Li family?”

“Maybe not! Obtaining the inheritance is one thing, but not losing it is even more important!”

“According to history, the Bat Clan member hid in the caverns for years before emerging. Many who wanted to seize the inheritance couldn’t even find a trace of him, only then did he get the chance to cultivate.”

“So not only is he not going to obtain the inheritance, he could end up bringing demise to his own family?”

“Shh, speak softly. There are other people here!”

“Humph… Am I wrong? Those three Clan masters are probably thinking about the treasures that Li Mu would bring out of the tower. Having a human help them get what they can’t themselves…”

Swoosh!

Before the orc could finish his sentence, a shadow zoomed towards him and his neck was clutched tight by a giant claw.

“What did you say? The methods of the Dragon Clan is far more powerful than whatever is on level 70. How dare you slander the Dragon Clan!”

“No… No, it was only a metaphor…”

“If you dare use the Dragon Clan as a metaphor again, then the only path left for you and your clan is death!”

Crack~

As Ao Guangzhi spoke, his claws reached downwards and crushed the orc’s limbs while shattering his qi foundation.

“Today I’ll wreck your limbs and destroy your powers to give you a lesson!”

“No!” The orc shrieked in pain.

He’d rather die than become disabled.

No one from the crowd said a word.

But this orc was right.

According to the rules of the the Demon Tower, those who rise first will obtain the resources and techniques, leaving no hope for the other clans.

Even if the weak managed to find opportunities and resources out there, it would be snatched away.

The strong gets stronger, the weak gets weaker.

“Level 75!”

More and more people had crowded around the slab.

“He’s going to completely overwhelm the prodigies of this era!”

Hushed exclamations came from the crowd.

All eyes were locked on to Feng Baiqing and the two masters.

The reverence and admiration from before were gone.

It was replaced by suspicion and doubt.

It seemed like the so-called prodigies weren’t that amazing after all!

Look at this… Someone from the Human Clan, the most inferior clan in Fenglan, had easily crushed them.

The greatest prodigies of this era? Aren’t they right here?

Why don’t they dare to enter the tower?

The longer the three stood rooted before the tower, the greater the doubt in the eyes of the crowd.

The respect from before was entirely gone.

“Let’s go, we should go and see for ourselves too!”

Feng Baiqing’s divine consciousness swept across his surroundings. He frowned, and quickly stepped into the Demon Tower.

“Level 76!”

Just as he stepped in, Feng Baiqing heard the exclamation behind him.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes to get rid of Li Mu’s name from his thoughts as he entered the tower.

Thunder’s face was as dark as the stormy sky.

Level 76.

That’s the level where the name of his ancestor, Lei Peng, was inscribed.

“Level 77, he’s rank 3 now!”

Just then, an astonished yell came from the crowd of orcs.

Thunder raised his head to look.

His hands trembled.

Shock!

Everyone that was standing at the slabs dropped their jaws and stared at Li Mu’s name.

Swoosh!

Moments later, cheers echoed through the air.

Thunder walked silently into the Demon Tower, his face full or anger.

Just then, a more scrupulous orc found a new name on the stone slab.

“Look! Feng Baiqing has entered the rankings!

“He’s still at level 35. He’s way behind Li Mu.”

…

Level 77 of the Demon Tower.

Li Mu sliced down the Great Demon that had pounced on him. He then opened the chest that was on that level.

It was a jade scroll containing a technique.

He pushed the scroll against the center of his forehead.

Then he shook his head.

The technique wasn’t suitable for him; it was meant for demons.

He quietly checked in.

“The host has successfully checked in at the Demon Tower level 77, God Killing Sword rewarded.”

“Not bad!”

He then stepped on to level 78.

Half an hour later, Li Mu once again slayed the Great Demon that was hindering him.

After clearing the level, he opened the chest and took out another jade scroll, only to shake his head again.

“Check in!”

“God Killing Sword Formation rewarded.”

A sword formation was not a bad reward either.

He didn’t think the higher he went, the better the rewards for checking in.

Li Mu raised his head to look at level 79, his expression was filled with excitement.

Just as he was going to step foot on level 79, his brows pinched into a frown.

“Crap, Liu Xiu and the others are in danger!”

Smack!

Li Mu slapped himself across the face.

All he had thought about was gaining experience and checking in, he’d forgotten about the girls and what danger the could be in.

Zoom!

Li Mu dashed out of the Demon Tower and sprinted towards an unknown corner of the Land of Demon Slayers.

“Hmm? The name stopped blinking. Was he kicked out at level 78?”

“Level 78? That’s third place! I’m afraid there’s no one that’s strong enough to oppose him at this time. I hope nothing happens to him and his family!”

“Quick, find out where Li Mu is!”

The masters who were keeping watch at the slab dashed out in every direction, all heading towards various locations in the Land of Demon Slayers.

“This is bad news for Li Mu. All the treasures he had collected in the tower might be robbed from him before he even gets out of the Land of Demon Slayers.”

“Ah! A prodigy of an era, gone before he could mature!”

“What a pity!”

“If he could develop, he’d likely be another dominant force!”

“A prodigy of this level has never appeared in Fenglan. Could this really the end of him?”

“Too bad he’s just a human! The Human Race can’t protect him.”

…

Words of pity echoed through the air.

“Let’s go find him too! If we somehow find Li Mu, maybe we can get our hands on his loot!”

Hoof!

Another batch of people left.

Only the weaker ones stayed behind to continue keeping watch on the rankings.

“Feng Baiqing has just passed level 40. And it looks like he’s spending more and more time on each level. He’s far from being as good as that Li Mu guy.”

“Hey look! Members of the Dragon Clan and the Roc Clan have appeared on the rankings too!”
