Chapter 691

When he reached the hundred-meter mark, Lin Moyu was fully concentrated, his soul power flowing slowly as he remained on high alert.

Boom!

A bolt of lightning shot out from within the tower, accompanied by a rumbling roar.

The lightning transformed into a large broadsword, slashing down directly at Lin Moyu's head.

A lightning broadsword, the lightning element…

Lin Moyu felt the dense lightning element within it.

"It is thirty to forty percent similar to the God-Slaying Lightning. As expected, it was built in imitation of the Ancient Thunder Tower."

"It has truly reached the God-level, around level 91. Not bad."

"To be able to unleash an attack of this level without anyone controlling it, it truly deserves its reputation as the most offensive of the three towers."

"If someone were controlling it, it could probably unleash the power of a Mid-tier God, reaching the limit of Legendary-grade equipment."

Lin Moyu's thoughts were as fast as lightning, analyzing a great deal in an instant.

If it were any other attack, Lin Moyu might have made a token effort to dodge…

But since this was a lightning element attack, Lin Moyu didn't bother to waste his effort, neither dodging nor evading.

General Wang Lin and the others were in disbelief. "He's not dodging!"

Senior Ye Hao also stared wide-eyed. "The young man is a bit arrogant."

Meng Anwen smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lin Moyu knows what he's doing."

He couldn't very well say that Lin Moyu had lightning element Immunity.

Attacking Lin Moyu with the lightning element was like throwing a meat bun at a dog—not only would it never return, but it would also fill the dog's belly.

He knew Lin Moyu's personality all too well; he would never fight a battle he wasn't sure of winning. Since he didn't dodge, he must have something to rely on.

The lightning broadsword struck Lin Moyu squarely, crashing down upon him with a roar.

The broadsword was like a clay ox entering the sea, failing to stir up even a single ripple.

Lin Moyu did not stop. Ignoring the attack, he continued to walk forward, and his pace grew faster and faster.

This scene shocked everyone once again.

General Wang Lin was in disbelief. Lin Moyu had actually ignored an attack that even Senior Ye Hao would have to dodge.

He hadn't just blocked it; he had truly ignored it.

He didn't even make a single gesture of resistance.

Senior Ye Hao was also incredibly shocked. "What is going on?"

Meng Anwen said, "To be honest, I'm not entirely sure of Lin Moyu's actual combat strength either. He always has his own methods."

He wouldn't offer any explanation, as this was originally Lin Moyu's secret.

Senior Ye Hao also knew he shouldn't ask. He smiled sheepishly and said no more.

Lin Moyu thought to himself, "If the subsequent attacks are also of the lightning element, then it won't matter."

"Since it was built in imitation of the Ancient Thunder Tower, does it also have a core inside?"

"And the trials inside the tower are likely also of the lightning element."

"If that's the case, then this is a sure thing."

The corners of Lin Moyu's mouth curled up slightly, a faint smile appearing in his eyes.

The second attack arrived swiftly. It was still a broadsword formed of lightning, its attack power slightly stronger than before, reaching the peak of level 91.

Lin Moyu still neither dodged nor evaded, his speed quickening once more.

In the blink of an eye, the third and fourth attacks arrived one after another. These two attacks had already reached level 92, but they were still useless.

By the time Lin Moyu reached the entrance of the demon-exterminating tower, the tower doors opened automatically, welcoming him inside as if welcoming its master.

The tower was 30 meters tall, divided into five stories when viewed from the outside.

Inside the tower, there were no stairs, nor was there any spatial partitioning.

One could see the top of the tower just by looking up.

At the top of the tower, a lightning orb resembling a core was shining brightly, with lightning serpents coiling and dancing around it.

Lin Moyu knew very well that as long as he could reach the position of the core, communicate with it, and brand it with his soul imprint, he could become the master of the demon-exterminating tower.

The difficult part was how to get up there.

Waves of immense pressure descended from above, weighing down on his body.

For any God-level powerhouse, this pressure was nothing; there had to be something even more difficult.

"It wouldn't happen to be lightning strikes, would it? If it's lightning strikes, then I won't stand on ceremony."

Lin Moyu chuckled softly and flew straight toward the core.

Boom!

The entire tower went into a frenzy as countless bolts of lightning crashed down.

Chapter 667: So It Was You Playing Tricks!

Violent thunder fell like rain. Even from the outside, one could see the entire demon-exterminating tower flashing with light.

Countless flashes of lightning fell head-on, striking Lin Moyu's body.

Lin Moyu neither dodged nor evaded. Feeling absolutely nothing, he charged straight up.

His lightning element Immunity allowed Lin Moyu to have no fear of the lightning attacks.

Just as he thought, if the demon-exterminating tower had no other tricks up its sleeve, then this tower was as good as his!

From the bottom of the tower to the core, it looked to be only about 30 meters, but only those inside would know that it was actually far more than that.

The tower levels formed their own space, seemingly short but actually long.

The internal space was layered, with every stretch of distance expanded hundreds of times.

Lin Moyu had long anticipated this and was not surprised.

Otherwise, no matter how strong the thunderstorm was, with Senior Ye Hao's abilities, he wouldn't have been unable to fly across a mere 30-meter distance.

Among the three towers, the one with the strongest spatial control was the Trial Tower, which could divide into countless spaces, just like a Dungeon.

Next was the Shenxia Tower. Under Meng Anwen's control, although it could not be said to divide into countless spaces, dividing into a thousand independent spaces at the same time was not a problem.

The demon-exterminating tower was relatively weak in this aspect, but it still possessed the basic capability.

It stretched the space, making what looked like a mere 30-meter distance actually become 3,000 meters or even 30,000 meters.

And the speed of the lightning storm was extremely fast; whatever the distance was made almost no difference to them.

Similarly, whatever the distance was also made no difference to Lin Moyu.

Even if it were 300,000 meters, so what? It would just mean flying a bit longer.

Wanting to use a thunderstorm to stop him was virtually impossible.

Within the thunderstorm, Lin Moyu continuously drew closer. The closer he got to the core, the denser the thunderstorm became, and its power grew greater and greater.

By the time Lin Moyu flew past the halfway mark, the power of the thunderstorm had already reached level 94.

At this point, even Senior Ye Hao probably wouldn't be able to hold out for long.

Although there was a gap between level 94 and level 95, it was not a night-and-day difference, unlike the difference between level 95 and level 96, which was a qualitative leap.

Furthermore, the power of the thunderstorm was still rising further, approaching level 95.

Lin Moyu knew that without a master controlling it, the limit of the demon-exterminating tower should be the peak of level 94.

If it had a master, it could unleash the attack power of the peak of level 95, reaching the limit of the Legendary grade.

The limit of the Legendary grade was level 95, but some Legendary-grade equipment could be promoted. Once promoted, they could become Mythical-grade equipment, which could unleash even greater power.

This was the case for the Shenxia Tower. Meng Anwen was already anxiously working on promoting the Shenxia Tower. The entire process was highly complex and required a long time.

The greatest difference between the Mythical grade and the Legendary grade lay in laws—bearing laws, driving laws, and ultimately reaching the point where they possessed laws themselves.

The demon-exterminating tower was the most offensive among the three towers, but it was still limited to the peak of the Legendary grade and could not reach the Mythical grade.

No matter how long the space was stretched, it still had an end. Braving the thunderstorm, Lin Moyu arrived beside the core of the demon-exterminating tower.

Outside the core, the thunderstorm vibrated incessantly, rumbling without pause.

Its surroundings had already turned into a sea of lightning. Lin Moyu stood within this sea of lightning, as immovable as a mountain.

Lin Moyu reached out his hand and pressed it toward the core.

Just as his palm was about to touch the core, Lin Moyu suddenly stopped.

A smile flickered in his eyes as he understood somewhat. "No wonder the demon-exterminating tower has had no master for hundreds of years. So it was you playing tricks."

Hearing Lin Moyu's words, the core shuddered violently and swiftly shrank back.

It was fast, but Lin Moyu was even faster, pressing down on it in one swift motion.

Applying force with his palm, he firmly gripped the core.

The core struggled frantically against Lin Moyu's palm, but no matter how it tried, it could not break free from Lin Moyu's control.

Lin Moyu said softly, "There's no need to struggle. You can't escape."

"Besides, I don't intend to do anything to you, nor have I ever thought of wiping you out."

Seemingly understanding Lin Moyu's words, the core stopped struggling and became quiet.

Lin Moyu's soul stirred slightly as his consciousness communicated with the core.

He saw scene after scene showing the birth of the demon-exterminating tower.

The core of the demon-exterminating tower was inferior to that of the Ancient Thunder Tower, and the recorded information was somewhat incomplete, but it was still enough to discern the entire process.

The three towers of the Shenxia Empire came from the hands of the same person. At that time, a God-level blacksmith was born in the Shenxia Empire.

This Divine Craftsman gathered more than two-thirds of the top-grade materials in the Shenxia Empire and, using the Ancient Thunder Tower as a template, forged three pagodas.

Even though they came from the hands of the same person, crafted with the same techniques and all built in imitation of the Ancient Thunder Tower, the resulting three towers turned out to be vastly different, completely distinct from one another.

However, all three towers reached the peak of the Legendary grade, so the vast amount of materials was not wasted.

In the years that followed, the three towers indeed played an incomparable role.

In the records, there were powerhouses who controlled the demon-exterminating tower to slay a large number of Demon Kings.

Unleashing a sea of lightning amidst the hordes of demons, they slaughtered the demons until they were in a state of utter wretchedness.

That was an epic and tragic era, with the war between demons and the human race raging endlessly all year round.

About three hundred years ago, the last master of the demon-exterminating tower fell, and from then on, the demon-exterminating tower had no master.

When that God-level powerhouse fell, he left a wisp of his Remnant Soul within the demon-exterminating tower.

And the demon-exterminating tower, by relying on this wisp of Remnant Soul that possessed almost no will, birthed a faint sentience.

Having gained a faint sentience, the demon-exterminating tower became even stronger. Even without anyone controlling it, it could still unleash level 95 attack power.

But similarly, it also became much more difficult for others to become the master of the demon-exterminating tower.

This faint sentience would instinctively refuse.

In the last 300 years, only one Emperor Di had emerged among the human race. Emperor Di was a Half-step Super God and had no need for Legendary-grade equipment.

Thus, he had never come to claim the demon-exterminating tower either.

And below Emperor Di, the human race had no High-tier Gods.

As for Mid-tier and Low-tier God-level powerhouses, they lacked the ability to claim the demon-exterminating tower.

Consequently, the demon-exterminating tower had remained without a master for nearly 300 years.

No matter how hard Senior Ye Hao tried, unless he could break through to level 96, it would be impossible for him to become the master of the demon-exterminating tower.

Until now, when Lin Moyu appeared.

The characteristic of lightning element Immunity left the demon-exterminating tower completely helpless against Lin Moyu.
