Chapter 64
Xu Que stuffed ten Heavenly Void Pills into his mouth; they were tasteless and melted upon contact, as if he had eaten a mouthful of air.
"Boom!"
The next moment, he felt as if his head had exploded; his mental realm expanded instantly, and his spiritual perception became more sensitive, as if he could capture every corner of the first floor of the Spirit Domain Tower!
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for consuming ten Heavenly Void Pills, divine sense power increased by 10%!"
As the system prompt sounded, Xu Que woke up from that mysterious ethereal state, feeling as if his whole body had inexhaustible energy, and his brain's processing speed had also become much faster.
"So this is the benefit of powerful divine sense power, truly wonderful. If I had known, I should have tried it earlier!" Xu Que raised the corner of his mouth, strode forward, and headed straight for the stairs leading to the second floor.
"Eh? Look, that black-robed kid can actually move!"
"Strange, he was clearly suppressed at the entrance just now, how is he suddenly fine!"
"Could it be... his divine sense power broke through instantly after being tempered?"
"How is that possible? Although divine sense power is mysterious, how could there be such a rapid breakthrough in the world?"
The cultivators outside the tower discovered that Xu Que could suddenly move, and were moved, exclaiming.
But the group of cultivators who had come from the second stage wore smiles that said they "had already seen through everything."
"Haha, as expected."
"Luckily we didn't fall for it; he must have been faking it just now."
"Right, he just wanted to trick more people into going in. Luckily we held back."
"This Hua Wuque is truly terrifying. Hehe, those people inside are going to be in trouble."
At the same time, on the second floor of the Spirit Domain Tower!
Several cultivators were stuck on this floor, each with a face full of gravity, holding their origin, concentrating, and resisting the terrifying divine sense suppression of the second floor.
In fact, this divine sense suppression also had the effect of enhancing a cultivator's divine sense. Once they tempered their divine sense, they could get used to this suppression and continue to move forward, having a good chance of charging to the third floor.
But that was under normal circumstances; now that Xu Que had arrived, this place became a special case.
"Haha, hilarious. Why are you all standing here without moving?" As soon as Xu Que came up, he let out a loud laugh and locked his gaze on a few of the cultivators who had mocked him earlier.
The spirits that those few had managed to concentrate were immediately scattered by Xu Que's loud laugh, and they were furious, glaring at Xu Que one after another.
Following that, they were stunned.
Xu Que, who had been mocked by them a moment ago, was now walking toward them with a full smile, shaking his shoulders as he walked, looking like a hooligan.
But it was precisely this look that showed how relaxed and at ease Xu Que was while facing the divine sense suppression of the second floor.
"How is this possible?"
"Weren't you stuck on the first floor?" Several cultivators asked in astonishment, their bodies still unable to move.
Xu Que laughed disdainfully: "Just kidding, with my realm and strength, is it possible for me to be stuck on the first floor? I stopped halfway just now because I was suddenly hungry, so I stopped to think about what to eat later. But, I never expected..."
Xu Que's expression suddenly changed, full of indignation, as if he had suffered great persecution, and said: "You actually opened your mouths to mock me, hit me, and caused huge trauma to my fragile heart, so now you all have to pay the price."
Several cultivators were stunned, then laughed fearlessly: "Hehe, in this place, what do you think you can do?"
"There are rules here. If you dare to use magical techniques to attack us, the Spirit Domain Tower will immediately send you out with us."
"Right, with your divine sense power, you should be able to charge to the fourth floor. If you want to go down with us here, you're the only one who will suffer."
"You can try if you want!"
Xu Que was stunned after hearing this. Damn, this shitty Spirit Domain Tower has such rules? Not allowed to use magical techniques? Not allowed to hurt people? Damn, why didn't those Fragrant Sky Valley disciples say so?
He felt a bit suspicious, but... these people didn't look like they were lying.
"What's wrong? Don't dare anymore?"
"Haha, anyway, our hope of reaching the third floor is slim. If you want to be sent out with us, we don't mind." Several people laughed loudly.
But as long as one observed carefully, one would find that although these people were talking, their divine sense was still tense, and they didn't dare to relax at all.
Xu Que seemed to realize something, his eyes brightened slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He didn't say a word, turned around, found an empty corner, and walked over.
The brows of several cultivators wrinkled, feeling a bit confused, but they also felt a secret sigh of relief in their hearts.
Although they were stimulating Xu Que to attack them, they didn't want to be sent out by the Spirit Domain Tower on the second floor, because that would mean they would be eliminated at this stage and would never be able to enter Fragrant Sky Valley.
"Luckily, he didn't dare to go down with us."
"We'll continue to concentrate our divine sense; there's still hope to charge to the third floor."
Several people looked at each other and began to temper their divine sense power again.
Xu Que walked slowly to the corner, summoned the system, and began to take things out of his storage space.
"Clang!"
An iron pot was thrown out, the sound echoing throughout the second floor.
Several cultivators who were just about to enter their state were startled, and their divine sense power even scattered slightly, almost being sent out by the Spirit Domain Tower.
They glared at Xu Que and said coldly: "Fellow Daoist, if you did this on the third floor, it might be useful against us, but on this second floor, we won't have our divine sense scattered just like that."
However, Xu Que didn't even look at them and continued to take things out of his storage space.
"Clatter!"
Another pile of firewood was scattered out.
"..."
"What on earth is this guy trying to do?" Several cultivators widened their eyes.
Then, they saw Xu Que pick up a thin piece of firewood, sit on the ground, press one end of the thin firewood against the surface of a piece of firewood, and rub it back and forth quickly with both hands.
Pfft!
Immediately, one of the cultivators couldn't hold it anymore; his divine sense scattered suddenly, just crossing a critical point, and he was directly rejected by the Spirit Domain Tower.
Outside the tower, everyone was still discussing why Xu Que could suddenly move, when a crisp sound came from the tower, and a figure was directly teleported out.
"Eh, it's been less than half a cup of tea, how was he sent out by the Spirit Domain Tower so quickly?"
"This is the lowest record so far."
"Looks like this guy has no hope of entering Fragrant Sky Valley."
Everyone was suspicious.
However, after the cultivator landed, his face was full of anger and grievance. He looked directly at several Fragrant Sky Valley disciples and said with extreme dissatisfaction: "Several senior brothers and sisters, I want to file a complaint. That black-robed youth is drilling wood to make fire inside the tower! It seriously affects my concentration. I demand a re-examination!"
Drilling wood to make fire?
Everyone present was stunned!
"Pfft!"
Following that, several cultivators who had come from the second stage burst into laughter.
"Haha, drilling wood to make fire, holy crap, that Young Hero Hua is truly impressive to be able to think of this move."
"Don't say that, this move is indeed a good method, but one must have enough divine sense power to withstand the suppression of the second floor to do it."
"But then again, what is he trying to do by drilling wood to make fire?"
"He should be trying to get some smoke and fire out to smoke people. After all, magical techniques and attacking people are not allowed in that tower."
Several Fragrant Sky Valley disciples were also stunned, as they hadn't encountered such a thing before—someone actually drilling wood to make fire in the tower...
After looking at each other, one of the disciples walked out, shook his head, and said: "It's just drilling wood to make fire; this doesn't count as a serious factor. Besides, there are still many people on the second floor now, and only you were sent out. This can only mean your divine sense power is too weak."
"Clatter!"
Just at this moment, another wooden token was adsorbed onto the tower wall outside the second floor, emitting a crisp sound.
Following that, another cultivator was teleported out.
Everyone was stunned again.
And that cultivator also had a face full of anger, extremely unwilling, and shouted directly at the Fragrant Sky Valley disciples: "Several senior brothers and sisters, there is a black-robed youth seriously affecting our stage attempt. I demand a re-examination."
The Fragrant Sky Valley disciple frowned and said coldly: "Drilling wood to make fire doesn't count as an influence."
"Drilling wood to make fire?" That cultivator immediately said angrily: "Drilling wood to make fire is one thing, the problem is that he is now roasting chicken wings on the tower!"
