　　“Xu Taiping, would you like to inherit my mantle？”
　　Just as Xu Taiping and the crowd in front of the spiritual mirror were all stunned, the deafening voice of the Saber Slave’s question rang out once again.
　　“I do！”
　　This time, Xu Taiping did not hesitate at all. He strode forward and took the simple and unsophisticated long saber handed over by the Saber Slave.
　　“Very good！”
　　The Saber Slave grinned, and then extended his other hand and gently tapped Xu Taiping’s forehead.
　　“Boom！ …”
　　Amid a violent air explosion, the mental method of the “Five Phases of Heavenly Fury Art” and the saber manual of the “Slaughter Saber”, as well as the Saber Slave’s own various insights into saber techniques, began to appear in Xu Taiping’s mind.
　　……
“Miss Qingcheng, is there any record in your sect’s secret scroll about the Saber Slave teaching the Slaughter Saber to the person climbing “the tower?”
　　On the sixth floor of the Octagonal Tower, Du Gu Qingxiao, with an incredulous expression on his face, turned his head and asked Gu Qingcheng beside him.
　　“No …”
　　Gu Qingcheng shook her head.
Regarding the matter that the Saber Slave would teach the person climbing the tower the Slaughter Saber, she indeed had not seen any record of it in the sect’s secret scroll. However, regarding the matter that the Saber Slave would teach Xu Taiping the Slaughter Saber, she was not the least bit surprised.
　　“The eleventh floor of the Mysterious Wilderness Tower is precisely a place controlled by extraterritorial evil gods and yin spirits. For the Mysterious Wilderness Great Emperor to want to help Young Master Taiping pass through this place, teaching him the Slaughter Saber through the hands of the Saber Slave is undoubtedly the best means.”
　　Gu Qingcheng thought this way in her heart.
　　She didn’t even feel surprised. Instead, she thought it was reasonable.
　　But this kind of guess, before Xu Taiping reached the top, she would never mention it to anyone.
　　……
　　“Xu Taiping！”
When these two soul imprints were completely integrated into Xu Taiping’s soul, the voice of the Knife Slave sounded in Xu Taiping’s mind—“Now that you are the successor of the Killing Life Knife, then please keep in mind that when the Outer Heaven Evil God descens again, all the people in the world can retreat but only you, Xu Taiping, cannot.”
You, the successor of the Killing Life Knife, you have to defend the gate of the human world.
　　“Do you wish to keep this promise？”
　　After hearing the Knife Slave’s voice transmission clearly, Xu Taiping only thought for a moment and then nodded seriously：
　　“I wish to keep this promise.”
　　The promise in the Knife Slave’s mouth did not go against his original intention, because if that day really came, even if he had not cultivated the Killing Life Knife, he would still stand up without hesitation.
　　“Hehehe……”
　　After getting Xu Taiping’s promise, the Knife Slave laughed strangely again and then transmitted his voice to Xu Taiping again：
　　“Just now, if you had the slightest hesitation, I would have immediately erased the two soul imprints in your mind and then expelled you from the Mysterious Desolation Pagoda.”
Hearing this, Xu Taiping smiled bitterly and felt a burst of fear in his heart.
　　According to the Knife Slave’s personality, he really could do this kind of thing.
　　“Since you are my successor, before I leave, I should give you a great gift.”
　　After transmitting this voice to Xu Taiping, the Knife Slave suddenly withdrew the hand that was on Xu Taiping’s forehead, and then turned his gaze to look squarely at Xu Taiping, and said loudly：
　　“Xu Taiping of the Qingxuan Sect, as a reward for breaking my Return to Sheath Style, you and the Azure Dragon Armor that came upstairs with you can both ascend to the eleventh floor of the Xuankuang Pagoda.”
　　Because this matter was already within expectations, the people in front of the spirit mirror were not too surprised by the Knife Slave’s words.
　　However, when the Knife Slave said the next sentence, the people in front of the spirit mirror, even including Gu Qingcheng, all had expressions of astonishment on their faces – “And I, will also serve as your guardian, using my clone to protect you until you reach the Ascension Terrace.”
　　……
　　“Escorting all the way to the Ascension Terrace, doesn’t that mean there is only one step left to the twelfth floor of the Xuankuang Pagoda？！”
　　In the Southern Chu Imperial Palace, after hearing the Knife Slave’s words, the King of Chu looked at the spirit mirror in front of him and exclaimed in a daze.
　　“This Knife Slave not only willingly bestows his mantle on Xu Taiping, but also… is willing to protect him？”
　　The Qionghua Sword Immortal beside him also had a look of confusion on his face at this time.
　　“What　a　pity.”
　　The King of Chu suddenly sighed and shook his head with a regretful expression and said.
　　“Why is Your Majesty sighing？”
　　The old Martial God Zhu Huai turned his head to look at the King of Chu.
“This Xu Taiping has been able to receive consecutive rewards from the Mysterious Wilderness Tower, and it must be because he has obtained the blessing of the Golden Scale List. That is the fortune accumulated by the Golden Scale List for nearly a thousand years!”
　　The King of Chu said helplessly.
In Youyun Tian, the most important thing is luck, and as the King of Chu, he is naturally no exception.
　　“There may indeed be a reason for the blessing of the Golden Scale List.”
　　Zhu Huai nodded at this time.
Although he didn’t believe in as much as the King of Chu, the things that happened to Xu Taiping at the moment, in his opinion, could only be explained by the word.
　　……
“Is it really lucky?”
　　In the stone room of Fanlou in Qiyuexuan, when Fairy Lingyue heard that Dao Nu was going to protect Xu Taiping, there was not a trace of joy on her face, but was full of confusion.
the Golden Scale List does have a certain protection for Taiping but existences like the Mysterious Wilderness Great Emperor and Dao Nu will not be easily influenced by fortune.
　　The more Fairy Lingyue thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
“Now that I think about it carefully, why do I feel that the Mysterious Wilderness Tower seems to be a little too good to Taiping, and there is a feeling of offering for no reason.
　　After muttering this sentence, her gaze once again looked at the spirit mirror in front of her.
　　……
　　Not only did Fairy Lingjing realize it, but at this time, Xu Taiping also suddenly realized that the reward given to him by the Mysterious Wilderness Tower this time was a little too good, as if deliberately pushing him to do something.
　　“Senior Dao Slave, are you kidding? In this trial of the Mysterious Desolation Tower, there is such a thing as a Guardian?”
　　In front of the gate on the Octagonal Tower that leads to the eleventh floor of the Mysterious Desolation Tower, Xu Taiping, who was waiting to climb the tower together with the Green Dragon Armors behind him, tentatively asked the avatar of Dao Slave who was pushing the door beside him.
　　“There wasn’t before. Now that you’re here, there is.”
　　Dao Slave transmitted his voice to Xu Taiping without looking back.
　　“Now that I’m here, there is… What？”
　　After hearing this, Xu Taiping became even more confused in his heart.
　　“Xu Taiping, don’t panic. Due to the rules of the Mysterious Desolation Tower itself and the constraints of heaven and earth that the Great Emperor suffered when casting this Mysterious Desolation Tower, there are many things that I can’t tell you first.”
　　The voice of Dao Slave first entered Xu Taiping’s mind.
After hearing this, Xu Taiping’s heart trembled had a hunch that what Dao Slave was going to say next might involve some major secrets.
　　Sure enough, after only a slight pause, Dao Slave continued to transmit his voice to Xu Taiping：
　　“But there are some things, including things outside the tower, that I have seen with my own eyes.”
　　“The sufferings that the people of the Mysterious Desolation Tower have endured for tens of thousands of years, I have seen them, and he has also seen them.”
The moment the avatar of Dao Slave said these words, one of his arms suddenly “exploded” with a “bang” sound, without any signs.
　　But the avatar of the Knife Slave seemed not to notice and continued to single-handedly push the door while self-consciously transmitting his voice and said：
　　“Now, it’s time to seek justice for them, and them.”
　　When he said this, the Knife Slave suddenly turned his head to look at Xu Taiping and said first：
　　“Xu Taiping, next, I’ll trouble you to be our hands and feet for a while and recover this blood debt without missing a single bit！”
