Chapter 70

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, outside the Spiritual Realm Tower!

Several streams of light whistled across the sky and instantly arrived, landing on the ground.

It was actually the disciple of the Heavenly Fragrance Valley who had left earlier, having invited the Elder who was in charge of the trial point.

The arrival of the Elder immediately caused shock among the crowd outside the tower.

After all, this was an existence at the Infant Transformation Stage. These cultivators rarely had the opportunity to see one, and some had even practiced for a lifetime and were seeing an Infant Transformation Stage expert for the first time today.

"So powerful, in front of him, I actually have the urge to kneel down."

"This is the aura of the Infant Transformation Stage. It turns out to be so terrifying!"

"If I can successfully enter the Heavenly Fragrance Valley this time, I might be able to get guidance from an Infant Transformation Stage expert in the future. My life will definitely benefit greatly!"

The crowd whispered one after another, their gazes all falling on that Elder!

"Greetings, Seventh Elder!"

Once the Elder arrived, the Heavenly Fragrance Valley disciples present also bowed and knelt one after another, incredibly respectful!

The old man, however, suddenly covered his mouth and nose and frowned: "What is this smell?"

A Heavenly Fragrance Valley disciple immediately replied: "Reporting to the Elder, this is a delicacy cooked by that black-robed youth, named stinky tofu. The disciple just got a piece and hasn't had time to eat it yet."

After speaking, he flipped his hand and presented a black, ugly piece of stinky tofu.

"Can this thing also be called a delicacy?"

The Seventh Elder's mouth twitched instantly.

On the way over, he had already learned about this matter from several disciples, but now seeing this piece of stinky tofu with his own eyes, and feeling such a pungent smell, he still found it somewhat hard to accept.

"The disciple didn't believe it at first either, but... this thing really does smell stinky, but tastes incredibly fragrant, and it can actually enhance Divine Soul Power!" The Heavenly Fragrance Valley disciple said respectfully.

"Enhance Divine Soul Power?" The Seventh Elder was instantly startled. With a wave of his hand, that black, ugly piece of stinky tofu floated into his hand.

The crowd's gazes also followed the stinky tofu, involuntarily revealing a trace of envy, and some even licked their lips, still wanting more.

The Seventh Elder stared suspiciously at the stinky tofu, never seeing anything strange about it.

Perhaps it was because he felt the crowd's burning gazes all focused on this piece of stinky tofu, but after hesitating for a moment, the Seventh Elder sent the stinky tofu directly into his mouth!

The next moment, his pair of turbid eyes suddenly opened wide, filled with shock!

"It really is delicious, and... there is a strange power that seems to be pulling at my Divine Soul. No, this... this is a divine object that can nourish Divine Soul Power!" The Seventh Elder was filled with horror in his heart!

The Heavenly Fragrance Valley was famous for refining medicine, but they only had one type of medicine that could nourish Divine Soul Power, and its success rate was extremely low. After it was refined, it was almost treated as a treasure of the sect, and they wouldn't easily take it out.

But now, just a piece of stinky tofu, a strange food, could actually have the effect of nourishing Divine Soul Power. This really shocked him.

"Young Friend Hua!" The Seventh Elder suddenly raised his head, looked at Xu Que, who was looking around on the fourth floor, and shouted in surprise.

Xu Que was pondering whether there was really someone upstairs. Being called by the Seventh Elder like this, he was startled and immediately glared and scolded: "Young Friend Hua your sister! Why are you shouting so loudly?"

"Holy crap!"

The crowd was instantly startled and gasped, looking at Xu Que with full horror, thinking to themselves: When did this guy run up to the fourth floor? And is he tired of living? He actually dares to talk to the Heavenly Fragrance Valley Elder like this?

"Ding! Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool. Reward: 50 Acting Cool Points!"

Apparently, Xu Que had inadvertently succeeded in acting a small cool!

However, the Seventh Elder not only didn't get angry, but even showed a trace of apology, smiling sheepishly: "Young Friend Hua, don't be angry. It was indeed this old man who was abrupt. I wonder if it's convenient for you to come down? This old man has urgent matters to consult with you!"

"Not convenient, didn't you see I'm busy passing the stage?" Xu Que refused without even thinking.

The Seventh Elder hurriedly said: "Young Friend Hua, this old man is an Elder of the Heavenly Fragrance Valley, ranked seventh. Actually, you have already met the entry requirements for our sect's elite disciples, and this stage has already been considered passed, so you don't need to continue."

"No, I am a person of principle. Since I said I would go up, I must go up. I won't stop until I reach the top floor!" Xu Que said firmly.

The crowd present, however, was instantly dumbfounded.

"The Elder actually didn't get angry? And even apologized to him?"

"And... did I hear wrong? The Elder said he wanted to designate him as an elite disciple in advance, but he refused?"

"What exactly is this guy trying to do?"

"It's really... impossible to guess him!"

The Heavenly Fragrance Valley disciples were also completely confused, blankly looking at Xu Que on the tower.

At this time, Xu Que also turned around and was about to leave.

The Seventh Elder hurriedly called him to stop: "Young Friend Hua, how about this old man waits for you to reach the fifth floor, and then we'll go to the stone house to have a talk?"

"Fifth floor? Are you kidding? I'm going to the tenth floor. Stop talking, I need to pee. I'll take care of it when I reach the top of the tower. You'd better stay far away later!" After Xu Que finished speaking, he took a stride and immediately dashed onto the fifth floor, disappearing from the tower window view.

The Seventh Elder and the many cultivators were speechless.

Go to the tenth floor? And go to the top of the tower to pee? Why don't you go to heaven?

It was already terrifying for an ordinary cultivator to reach the fifth floor. After all, Divine Soul Power, no matter how powerful, had its limits.

Even this Seventh Elder of the Heavenly Fragrance Valley had a personal record of only being able to walk to the center of the seventh floor!

"The higher you go, the more terrifying the suppression of the Divine Soul becomes. Forget it, he'll understand when he walks to the fifth floor." The Seventh Elder shook his head and muttered to himself.

At the same time, the Heavenly Fragrance Valley disciples hurriedly moved the tower window up, and Xu Que's image appeared on the fifth floor.

They saw that he had already walked to the center of the fifth floor, and the pressure didn't seem to be very great. It was as if he was walking while carrying something. His speed was extremely slow, but he could still move forward.

This scene instantly stunned everyone present!

"This... how is this possible?"

"On the fifth floor, he can actually still move forward?"

"Could it be that he's going to sprint to the sixth floor? My god, how is this possible?" The Heavenly Fragrance Valley disciples exclaimed one after another.

Even the Seventh Elder was stunned, incredibly astonished.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool. Reward: 40 Acting Cool Points!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting cool. Reward: 60 Acting Cool Points!"

However, Xu Que was still continuing to move forward.

Now he really felt a not-so-small suppression force. He felt as if he were walking in a swamp, and every step was very heavy and difficult.

But this was still something he could withstand, and vaguely, he also felt that his Divine Soul Power seemed to have increased in the confrontation with the suppression force. Although it was very subtle, he could clearly feel the change.

Soon, he arrived under the stairs leading to the sixth floor, looked up, and hesitated slightly.

"If I go up again, I'm afraid I'll have to exchange for Profound Ice Green Fire Dew again. Should I buy it or not?"

"Young Friend Hua, I didn't expect that you would have such powerful Divine Soul Power at such a young age. This old man truly admires you. But don't go up to this sixth floor. That floor is no longer a place where you young people can stay." Under the tower, the Seventh Elder hurriedly persuaded.

When Xu Que heard this, he was instantly unhappy.

"Holy crap, the old guy actually dares to provoke me? You don't want me to go up, but I'm going to go up!" He snorted in his heart, spent 500 Acting Cool Points, exchanged for another drop of Profound Ice Green Fire Dew, swallowed it directly, and then stepped toward the sixth floor.

The Seventh Elder's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed: "Young Friend Hua, absolutely not! This old man really wasn't joking with you. The Divine Soul suppression on this sixth floor is incredibly powerful. If your Divine Soul Power isn't powerful enough, before the Spiritual Realm Tower expels you, your Divine Soul will likely be completely crushed."

Xu Que suddenly stopped, turned around, looked at the crowd under the tower through the tower window, and smiled faintly: "So what?"

The crowd outside the tower was startled!

Following that, Xu Que's expression became somewhat impassioned. He looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle and said powerfully: "In life, one should be a hero; in death, one should be a ghost hero! My path of the strong can never be blocked by this mere Spiritual Realm Tower!"

After speaking, he resolutely turned around and stepped up!

Leaving only a group of cultivators outside the tower, full of horror and dumbfounded, messy in the wind!
