Chapter 270 targets
"Fellow Daoist Song, are you saying that this tower, which appears to be a single unit, is actually divided into three parts?"
"That's one way to understand it."
Zhang Lingyu stood side by side with the woman at the entrance on the fourth floor, listening to her nod and say:
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, you should have noticed as well that there is a very powerful restriction at the entrance to the fourth floor, completely isolating the fourth to sixth floors from the lower floors."
There was no other reason than that the entrance in front of them was fiercely resisting their advance, and its power was considerable.
In fact, Song Siyu had already noticed it. When she used the "Hundred Transformations Dividing Light Sword Scripture", the sword light filled the entire pagoda. Just like what had been seen before, the not-so-hard decorations were all turned into dust, while the upper four floors were completely unharmed.
However, the stronger the restriction, the better the items on it.
The pagoda has nine levels. Song Siyu obtained her first pass token on the third level. Based on this, there should be one on the sixth and ninth levels. In addition, each level also has some good magical artifacts.
However, the first three levels are mostly just things for cultivating qi.
What they need to do now is simple: break through to the sixth level and help Zhang Lingyu obtain the pass token. But that doesn't mean they'll stop there. Now that they're here, they should see what good things are on the ninth level.
"Fellow Daoist Song, this restriction isn't very strong. There should be an array connecting it. If we join forces and attack one point, we can definitely break it." Zhang Lingyu had already set up an array at the entrance of the pagoda. Anyone who enters will trigger a corresponding warning, so they can get an early warning and won't have to worry about being caught off guard.
"Okay." Song Siyu stepped back slightly, making room for her.
Of course, they did not attack rashly, but instead searched for the weakest point in the formation. After all, they needed to conserve their magic power to deal with the upcoming battle. This battle referred to the threats inside the pagoda. There were puppets guarding the first to third floors, and the upper areas would likely be no exception.
As he released his divine sense, the entire restriction was exposed to Zhang Lingyu without reservation. Although he was not proficient in formations, his powerful divine sense always allowed him to find weak points. After a dozen breaths, he suddenly pointed to one of the weak points and shouted, "Fellow Daoist Song, here."
As soon as he finished speaking, the woman beside him unleashed a whistling sword light, while at the same time, a dense golden light shot out from his sleeve, a miniature version of the Burning Yuan Heart Light.
"Snap!"
The combined attack of the two instantly shattered the weak point, followed by the collapse of the entire formation, and the restrictions in front of them vanished without a trace.
Just as they took their first step, the entire fourth floor suddenly shook slightly, and several whooshing sounds rang out abruptly, hurtling towards them.
Without a doubt, it must have alerted the puppets guarding this place.
In just over ten breaths, more than ten puppets arrived in front of him, their power comparable to that of a peak Qi Refining cultivator.
Song Siyu frowned slightly, about to draw her sword and wipe them out, but was stopped by Zhang Lingyu beside her, who laughed and said, "No need to trouble you, fellow Daoist, please leave these to me."
It wasn't that he wanted to show off in front of them, but rather that the puppets were rare, and it would be a shame to destroy them. It would be better to subdue them one by one and bring them back to the family. Whether from the perspective of combat power or for the family members to study, they were invaluable treasures.
As a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, Zhang Lingyu possessed powerful magical artifacts that could be easily destroyed with the slightest force. In this situation, using the Soul-Devouring Bee was the most suitable option. All that was needed was to remove the spirit stone from the core part that powered the puppet, and the task would be complete.
As the puppets fell one by one, Zhang Lingyu's storage bag slowly filled up. The bees, perhaps starving, kept circling the puppets, but he didn't have time to feed them.
After the puppet was dealt with, the threat on the fourth floor also disappeared. The two searched the entire fourth floor and found no trace of the token. The most valuable item they found was a Foundation Establishment spiritual artifact.
Since Song Siyu hadn't put in much effort, she simply gave it away. As for the others, they were all things that Qi Refining cultivators needed, so they weren't of much use to her. Zhang Lingyu then picked out some useful items.
Perhaps due to the passage of time, most of the items have long lost their spiritual power and become useless, with only a few traces of puppetry still being of some use.
After finishing the fourth floor, they rushed to the fifth floor without stopping. Unexpectedly, the puppet guarding the place chose to self-destruct when its core was about to be destroyed, destroying many things around it as well.
In the end, only two puppets were actually obtained.
"Could it be that Puppet Transformation Box causing trouble? It only took a few of your puppets."
With his spiritual power, he was completely unaware of it beforehand.
Fortunately, there weren't many good items on the fifth floor, so I wasn't too heartbroken.
After reaching the sixth level, even though Zhang Lingyu was extremely careful, the puppets would still self-destruct if he couldn't defeat them, sometimes even after just one exchange, leaving him with no way to attack.
Even the many items stored there have mysteriously disappeared.
"Damn the Spirit Puppet Transformation Box, isn't this obviously targeting me?!" He finally lost his temper and cursed out loud.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, let's find the pass token first..." Song Siyu, standing to the side, also seemed rather helpless.
Although Zhang Lingyu had indeed looted everything within sight along the way, since it was already there, there was no reason not to take it.
The magic weapon's actions were indeed somewhat petty.
However, her attention was not only focused on the transfer of items, but also on the magical artifact that was secretly controlling everything.
Since they can control everything in the tower, it would be very easy for them to kill them if they wanted to.
No one can be sure that everything this treasure said before was true.
"it is good."
Zhang Lingyu didn't dwell on this matter much, and instead began searching for the pass token in the ruins.
To their surprise, after searching for a while, they couldn't find a trace of it at all.
"It seems the token was teleported away along with the other items."
"That's right, but it should still be in this tower, most likely on the ninth floor." Zhang Lingyu was quite helpless, but he had a feeling that there would probably be a battle when they reached the ninth floor.
Without further hesitation, the two continued climbing. When they broke through the barrier leading to the seventh floor, he suddenly suggested that Song Siyu lead the way, wanting to verify his conjecture.
The latter did not refuse, and in the end, just as Zhang Lingyu had thought, the puppets preferred to be reduced to fragments under the sword light rather than choose to self-destruct.
After the battle ended, many items even flew directly to Song Siyu's location.
This whole ordeal left him gritting his teeth in frustration.
"Still saying you're not targeting me?"
