Everyone was shocked when they heard this before looking down at the spirit beast that Huang Xie was dragging.
This spirit beast was a Peak Foundation Realm Beast, one that any of them would have struggled with if they fought it alone. However, here was Huang Xie dragging it over towards them like it was nothing.
He acted like it was nothing more than a small animal that he tamed, rather than treating it like the fierce beast that it was.
Just how was this possible?
It wasn’t just these other disciples that were surprised to see this.
Even those from the Love Sect and Demon Palm Sect couldn’t help being surprised when they saw this.
After all, they knew that Huang Xie’s physique was not this strong when they last saw him.
They had no idea how he was able to suddenly become this strong all of a sudden.
The way for Huang Xie to improve his physique was to take damage. The more that he was beaten, the more that his physique would awaken.
Of course, if the attack that he was hit with was much stronger than his defenses and he wasn’t able to stop it, then naturally it would break his defenses and he would be injured.
That was most likely the only way that he could be killed.
In a sense, this was a double edged sword.
Once Huang Xie became stronger, it would be hard to find things that would be able to hurt him just enough that his physique would become stronger. But if he took the risk and attacked things that were much stronger than him, it was very likely that he would die from being overwhelmed.
So there was only so much damage that Huang Xie could take.
After all, at higher levels, the gaps between realms were much greater and much harder to close.
But at this lower level, it was easy for Huang Xie to defend against attacks that were stronger than him, even if they were several levels above him. The gaps between levels were much smaller at these lower levels of cultivation.
Not to mention, he had gone through all of the trials that this tower had put him through.
The reason that this trial existed was to test the future generation and encourage their growth, so the power had been adjusted to the level that the younger generation would be able to deal with. But at the same time, it was also adjusted so that the younger generation would feel pressured and grow.
For Huang Xie who relied on growing stronger through being beaten, this was the best environment to grow.
Not only did he receive physical strain from this tower, he also received mental strain.
During his time in the tower, Huang Xie was the one that had grown the most and it was an explosive form of growth.
He had become stronger than everyone else who was here, including Mo Sha and Xiao Ming.
After all, neither of them would be able to deal with fifty Peak Foundation Realm Beasts alone like Huang Xie had done. That was why both of them were now looking at him with strange looks.
The reason why Huang Xie had brought this last Peak Foundation Realm Beast back like this was to give everyone a chance to heal up and rebuild the defenses.
The Peak Foundation Realm Beasts that had been killed had dropped loot just like the other spirit beasts that they faced before. Not only was there material for them to build the walls with, there were also weapons and armours that they could use to strengthen themselves.
If this was in the outside world, then there might be some kind of fight between them on who would be able to take these items.
However, in this soul world inside of the tower, there were no fights at all.
These things couldn’t be taken out of the tower in the first place, so there was no reason for them to fight each other like this. Instead it was better to give the equipment to those that could use them best so they could fight the spirit beasts in the next wave.
Naturally, that included the people from the Love Sect and Demon Palm Sect group.
They were the ones that held priority in this matter since they were the ones that had done the most in the last fight. They were the only ones that had actually hurt the Peak Foundation Realm Beasts after all.
So if they could take these good weapons and armours, they would become even stronger.
The Love Sect and Demon Palm Sect group didn’t hold back at all as they took these things, but Huang Xie didn’t take anything. Instead, he just picked up something that looked like a brick that one of the spirit beasts dropped and chose to use this as a weapon.
Everyone was shocked by this and some people even tried to offer weapons to him, but Huang Xie insisted on this brick.
Only Huang Xie knew that this brick was special.
“This is a piece of the Linglong Pagoda, it’s a treasure above all other treasures.”
“Huh?” Huang Xie was confused when he suddenly heard Hei Gui suddenly speaking to him, but he looked at the brick that he called the piece of the Linglong Pagoda with a surprised look.
After testing it, Huang Xie realized that this was indeed a very special weapon, even if it was just a brick.
It was that no matter how he tried to break it, he wasn’t able to do a single thing to it.
Defense could also be used for offense, so Huang Xie’s rock hard shell was actually able to fight back against those in the Qi Condensing Realm. However, even then, he wasn’t able to leave a single scratch on this brick.
That was just how hard this thing was.
It would be a perfect weapon for him.
“Humph, you think that you can break this thing? Even when I was at my peak, I couldn’t break this thing. This is something that belongs to the immortals in the upper realm, it isn’t something that we lower realm cultivators can think about destroying.”
“Upper realm?” Huang Xie asked in a confused voice.
Hei Gui didn’t respond and instead diverted by saying, “For now, just focus on what’s in front of you.”
Though there was a part of him that was curious about this.
Last he checked, the Linglong Pagoda should still be in one piece at the center of the continent.
So why would there be a fragment of it here?
Was it stolen by the person who made this tower of trials or did something happen to that Linglong Pagoda?
It had been a long time since he was alive, it seemed that many things had changed after all this time. Perhaps the continent might be completely different once he left this place.
But it wasn’t as if there was anything that was out there for him…
No, there was still this child, Huang Xie.
If he taught this child well, there was a chance that his Hei Family would rise once more.
After around twenty minutes, everyone seemed like they had recovered and it seemed like they had built up the defenses once again. These defenses were now much stronger than before.
They were even strong enough to block the attacks of the Peak Foundation Realm Beasts from before.
Seeing these defenses, everyone felt much more confident.
Even if they weren’t able to hurt the spirit beasts that came, they would at least be able to stop them. That way, they could at least slowly whittle down the spirit beasts that the trial released, giving them a chance to fight back.
Or at least that was what they thought.
Since they had finished recovering, Huang Xie didn’t hesitate to smash the Foundation Realm Beast’s head in with the brick.
He had been smashing the limbs of the Peak Foundation Realm Beast the entire time so that it wouldn’t be able to move. It was just that he had to keep doing it since the Peak Foundation Realm Beast recovered quite quickly.
But that didn’t matter now since he killed it in one move.
The moment that the Peak Foundation Realm Beast breathed its last, it let out a sigh of relief that it was finally released from this torture.
At the same time, there was a door that opened.
There was only a single door that opened this time, but the pressure that came from it was much greater than the pressure that came from any other wave.
This was the pressure of a spirit beast that was in a realm that was beyond theirs.
This was the pressure of a spirit beast in the Qi Condensing Realm.
The disciples were all familiar with this since there were elders in their sects that were at the same level, so they knew that this spirit beast was in the Qi Condensing Realm.
The moment that they realized this, they knew that they were finished.
The Foundation Realm and the Qi Condensing Realm were completely different things.
Even if all of those Peak Foundation Realm Beasts surrounded this Qi Condensing Realm Beast, they still wouldn’t be able to win.
That was just the gap between major realms.
There was no comparing the power between those two major realms.
Yet even though everyone else felt fear because of this, Huang Xie didn’t hesitate to charge out at the spirit beast once again when it appeared.
