Chapter 717: Chapter 714 Soul Beast!
“Open the tower!”
As the Prefectural Governor Ning Que gave the order, eighteen strong n on each side simultaneously exerted their full strength, using giant pulleys to lift the massive iron gate weighing a hundred thousand catties.
All the Heaven’s Chosen Sons and Holy Daughters widened their eyes, watching the Soul Condensing Tower gradually open.
“Holders of the Soul Guide, enter the tower!”
Before the words “enter the tower” fully settled, those elites holding Soul Guides rushed eagerly, their figures transforming into streaks of light, swiftly shooting inside.
As they approached the tower’s gate, they threw the Soul Guides in their hands onto the defensive barrier above.
This defensive barrier had the function of authenticating true and false, and after confirmation, it would open a passage to let people in.
In other words, the so-called Soul Guide was the key to open the defensive barrier of the Soul Condensing Tower. Without this object, one would face the entire tower’s rejection, unable to pass through smoothly.
Li Chen saw that most people had already entered the tower, and then he leisurely walked inside.
From the outside, the Soul Condensing Tower was gloomy and terrifying, giving people goosebumps.
But once inside, it turned out to be completely refreshing.
Clearly, there was another world inside.
The tower was filled with wafts of white mist, which also contained a special kind of energy that could temper one’s Divine Soul.
So disciples who had just entered the Foundation Establishnt stage were overjoyed and imdiately began to ditate on the spot, devouring the surrounding white mist energy.
Those Heaven’s Chosen Sons and Holy Daughters, however, did not stay on this level and headed straight for the second floor.
Li Chen also followed them up to the second level!
The second floor was similar to the first, just that the white mist was denser and the energy contained within was greater.
On the third floor, Soul Beasts like fireflies began to appear.
These Soul Beasts were all ford from concentrated Divine Soul energy and had no offensive power. Catching one was equivalent to cultivating for half an hour on the first level.
However, these Soul Beasts were only the size of rice grains, and were not many in number, making them not easy to capture.
Li Chen stayed for a while and then headed straight to the fourth floor.
Only about one in ten could reach the fourth floor.
The Soul Beasts here were about the size of wild chickens and hares. Even Heaven’s Chosen Son like Sun Tiantian and Jiang Tianxing, and Holy Daughters were dazzled and rushed to capture them.
However, these creatures were not enough to pique Li Chen’s interest.
His goal was the top level!
Already on the fourth level, Soul Beasts the size of hares had appeared. As he moved on, there would surely be unexpected surprises waiting.
Sure enough, the fifth level featured Soul Beasts the size of wolves or dogs and they were much more fierce and would even actively attack.
However, these Soul Beasts were not very strong. In Li Chen’s eyes, they were no different from sheep and white rabbits.
Li Chen did not linger on this floor; after all, ti was limited and he had to maximize his gains.
A Forbidden Barrier guarded the entrance to the fifth level of the Soul Tower.
But in front of Li Chen, it was just like a paper door, easily breached.
Upon reaching the fifth level, the size of the Soul Beasts here was comparable to elephants and black bears. Moreover, they were extrely aggressive and attacked in a group before Li Chen could even stabilize his footing.
Li Chen’s eyes twinkled with a cold light as he wielded the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss. The Dragon Soul twined around it, emitting a soul-stirring dragon’s roar.
“Swish!”
Li Chen slashed out with his sword, and the Dragon Soul transford into a Death Tornado, sweeping everything in its path, leaving no chickens or dogs alive.
Li Chen himself ford a vortex around his core, frantically absorbing the energy contained within these Soul Beasts’ bodies to temper his own Divine Soul.
Just at that mont, the Qingzhou Tripod Spirit seed to have spotted sothing delicious, excitedly barking out loud.
“Cluck, cluck!”
It leaped directly out of Li Chen’s body, transforming into a gigantic tripod, standing firmly in the center.
Imdiately, a fragrant pill aroma spilled out, intoxicating anyone who slled it.
Originally, the Qingzhou Tripod was an artifact used for Alchemy; whether it was Emperor Yu or Master Sanchi, both used it to refine high-level pills. It’s no wonder the lingering scent of pills remained within it.
The Soul Beasts, upon slling this fragrance, beca like chickens injected with adrenaline, crazily surging towards the inside of the tripod.
This scene left Li Chen and the Dragon Soul utterly astonished.
This tactic, terd “luring the enemy into the pot,” was executed brilliantly. Imdiately stewing all the soul beasts on the fifth floor in one go.
Li Chen, feeling sowhat resigned, shrugged his shoulders and proceeded with the Dragon Soul to the sixth floor.
The strength of the Soul Beasts on this floor was considerably stronger than those on the fifth floor, yet with Li Chen, Dragon Soul, and the Artifact Spirit working together, they easily encircled and captured them.
The seventh floor!
This was already the upper levels of the Soul Condensing Tower.
There were very few Soul Beasts on this floor; to be precise, only five!
One in each direction: east, west, north, south, and central.
Although few in number, all were high-level Soul Beasts, their combat power equivalent to fourth-level Middle Stage Demon Beasts, and all possessed Spiritual Wisdom and territorial awareness.
Based on Li Chen’s current strength, dealing with a single fourth-level Middle Stage Demon Beast was no problem.
But dealing with five simultaneously could be troubleso.
It seems necessary to defeat them one by one!
After pondering for a mont, a perfect plan erged in Li Chen’s mind.
In the Qingzhou Tripod, set up a Forbidden Array.
Utilize the overflowing pill fragrance inside to lure these Soul Beasts one by one.
Entice them into the pot, then strike them down in one fell swoop!
Putting thoughts into action, Li Chen decided to start with the Soul Beast Elk on the far east.
He cautiously brought out the Qingzhou Tripod, positioning it just close enough that only the Elk could sll the pill fragrance.
Sure enough!
The Elk, lying amidst clouds and mist, slled the rich fragrance and began looking around.
If it were a lower-level Soul Beast, it would definitely have rushed over straightforwardly upon detecting the fragrance.
However, the Elk, possessing so degree of Spiritual Wisdom, had a concept of “trap” in its mind.
It didn’t rush over imdiately but carefully looked around, seemingly puzzled as to why a strange tripod had suddenly appeared in the Soul Tower.
After waiting a while, it finally couldn’t resist the temptation of the pill fragrance and began slowly moving towards the Qingzhou Tripod.
Seeing this, Li Chen was overjoyed. He held his breath and muttered quietly, “Co on, little deer, right into the pot, right into the pot!”
When the Soul Beast Elk was still thirty yards away from the Qingzhou Tripod, it suddenly stopped, its beastly pupils flashing with a glimr of greenish light, sniffing the surroundings vigorously.
Li Chen kept his presence as concealed as possible, fearing that even the slightest noise might scare away his prey.
After staying still for half a minute, the Soul Beast Elk, detecting no abnormalities, slightly lowered its body and then leaped forward, jumping into the Qingzhou Tripod.
Overjoyed at the sight, Li Chen, as soon as the Soul Beast Elk entered the Tripod, materialized out of thin air. In the palm of his hand, he ford a golden Yellow Talisman, forcefully pressing it down.
“Perfect timing, seal!”
