"How could there be demons in the Demon Sky Tower?"
The guardian, feeling every layer of the Demon Sky Tower, raised imdiate doubts.
"I trust my sense of sll."
Badongng said confidently, unfazed by the guardian’s words.
"Why are we discussing this? Once we reach the fourth level, we’ll know everything."
Su Ran’s focus was not on this, but rather on the treasure vault’s rewards. He took a step forward and looked at the flaming red skeleton, "Senior, about my earlier proposal, do you think it’s acceptable?"
"What proposal?"
"Senior, you must have forgotten. I ntioned before that I need the magical mirror shards and the Demon King’s Order from the treasure vault. I hope you can fulfill this request."
Su Ran adopted a humble posture; making demands now was normal. If he waited until the task was completed, it would be unnecessary.
"Magical mirror shards, Demon King’s Order..."
The guardian stared at Su Ran, "Are you really here to save , or just treasure hunting?"
"You really have it figured out!"
Realizing this guy was sharp, Su Ran ceased concealing his intentions, "I ca specifically for these two treasures and happened to encounter these two statues. So, I saved you in passing."
"Undead skeleton, all that long-winded talk earlier was entirely false. I didn’t expect you to be so unreliable,"
The guardian shook his head in disappointnt, "Alright, I’ll grant you this once, giving you two opportunities to treasure hunt. Whether you can get these two treasures depends entirely on your luck."
"Thank you, Senior, for making it possible!"
Su Ran didn’t catch the hidden aning and excitedly said, "Please open the path to the fourth level quickly, I’m off to find the Icefire Liquid!"
"Go on."
The guardian waved a hand, and a stone staircase erged from the wall, leading directly to the fourth level above.
"Senior, I’ll be right back!"
Su Ran signaled to Badongng the demon and entered the fourth-level space together.
This was the top level of the Demon Sky Tower, where the treasure vault was located, making Su Ran excited. Not only that, but Badongng had also caught a whiff of a demon’s scent, potentially finding Goudan, which was the most important aspect for him.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t need to go to the fourth level at all; he could complete the task directly. Before solving these issues, he couldn’t possibly hand over the Icefire Liquid.
"Undead, who is that blood-red skeleton?"
Upon entering the fourth level, Badongng voiced his confusion.
"That is the guardian of the Demon Sky Tower, and the statue next to it is its avatar. My task is to obtain the Icefire Liquid from this fourth level to assist in its fusion."
After experiencing so much hardship together, Su Ran already regarded Badongng the demon as one of his own and shared the task process with him.
"Guardian..."
Badongng fell silent, lost in mories, and his expression beca a bit complex. What surfaced in his mind was beyond Su Ran’s guessing.
This fourth-level space was much larger than the third, and the slope was evident, making it hard for him to maintain balance, so he opted to fly up and take in the scene below.
In the center of this fourth level lay a verdant green pool, its surface bubbling occasionally with waves rippling outward. Without thinking, he could tell this pool contained dangers best avoided to prevent surprise attacks.
Surrounding the pool were four altars, each exuding a faint glow, perating a mysterious and dangerous atmosphere, stirring an urge in him to explore further.
Not far from the pool, a tall ancient tree grew, supporting the tower’s ceiling like a column, holding up this space.
Undoubtedly, this tree was not ordinary and could trigger an event; once he handled the pool and altars, he couldn’t miss the ancient tree.
"Undead."
While Su Ran was observing the terrain, Badongng’s voice reached his ears.
"I can sense it, the demon’s presence is inside the right-front altar."
"Are you certain?"
Su Ran’s eyes lit up, fixed on the altar, and he made an instant decision: this altar would be the first target to tackle, taking precedence!
"I trust my sense of sll."
Badongng answered the sa way as before, his gaze turning cold, "I sense the demon’s presence is very faint, the situation is dire, ti is of the essence."
"Alright."
Upon hearing this, Su Ran panicked; if anything happened to Goudan, how would he face the elder?
Not hesitating, he summoned the Lightning Bat clone and flew towards the altar.
But before the Lightning Bat could reach it, the water’s surface suddenly erupted, splashing three ters high. A silver-glowing tuna leapt into the air, piercing through the Lightning Bat’s body, lodging in its frawork.
Imdiately after.
An octopus tentacle shot from the pool, grabbing the Lightning Bat and the tuna, pulling them back into the water, disappearing.
The whole process was swift as lightning, gone in a blink, leaving Su Ran stunned as the Lightning Bat heroically perished.
At this mont, the pool echoed with a dense crackle of thunder, bursting like a cauldron.
Su Ran understood that this was the triggering of the Lightning Bat’s passive skills, the Thunder Tribulation Body.
(Thunder Tribulation Body—During lee attacks, reflects 20% lightning damage, with a chance to cause a lightning paralysis effect lasting 3 seconds.)
