“Is this the twelfth floor of the Mysterious Desolation Pagoda？”
After breaking open the Heavenly Gate with a single sword, Xu Taiping’s qi and blood true essence and divine soul were all consumed, and his consciousness fell into chaos.
When he woke up again, he was already in a great hall surrounded by a sea of clouds on the west side, and he was also covered in a group of colorful brilliance.
Looking down at his own body.
He found that his whole body of skin, flesh, and bones that had been scraped off by the might of heaven was recovering at a visible speed.
The qi and blood and true yuan power that were exhausted when he just drew the sword, especially the divine yuan power that is usually the most difficult to recover, are also recovering rapidly at this moment.
“When I borrowed that sword from my master back then, it took more than three months of healing in the Xiaoyao Sect to barely recover. The damage to the divine yuan, qi and blood caused by this sword today is even more severe than that one. But now it can recover so quickly. Besides the Xuanghuang Great Emperor, who else can do it？”
Xu Taiping struggled to stand up, and while muttering to himself, he looked around the west side.
Then he discovered that although the main hall seemed empty at first glance, when looking closely, the phantasm of rows of bookshelves could be seen, and among the phantasm of these rows of bookshelves, there were also figures dressed as the boy busy sorting out books and documents.
“Miss Qingcheng once said that the twelfth floor of the Xuanghuang Pagoda was once the largest library in the entire Shangqing Realm. The documents it stored even spanned from the recent ancient times to the ancient times, the archaic times, the primordial times, and even the desolate ancient times.”
“Even the document recording the collapse of the ancient Heavenly Court was also hidden in it.”
Looking at the rows of bookshelves and the phantasm of the busy bookboys, and feeling the recovery speed of his physical body, Xu Taiping could finally confirm——
“This place is the twelfth floor of the Xuanghuang Pagoda！”
Almost at the same time as he confirmed this point, a voice suddenly sounded in the main hall——
”Congratulations to Taiping Daoist for reaching the twelfth floor of the Xuanhuang Tower.”
And just as this voice sounded, a figure walked out from behind the bookshelf, and with each step he took closer, his figure became more solid.
By the time he walked in front of Xu Taiping, that phantasm had completely turned into the appearance of a living person with flesh and blood.
”Who are you？”
Xu Taiping carefully sized up the young man in front of him who was dressed as a Confucian scholar but had a pair of fox ears, and then asked curiously.
”I am Dongfang…”
”He is the tower spirit who has been communicating with you all since you entered the Xuanhuang Tower. He is also the military strategist under the seat of Emperor Xuanhuang, Dongfang Jing.”
The words of the fox-eared Confucian scholar were not finished when they were interrupted by a suddenly appearing voice.
Immediately afterwards, a figure that Xu Taiping was very familiar with also, like the previous fox-eared Confucian scholar, manifested from a phantasm into a human form and appeared in front of Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping recognized this person at a glance – the Saber Slave.
”Little guy, we meet again.”
Before Xu Taiping could speak, he saw the Saber Slave carelessly reach out and hook Dongfang Jing, and grinned and said.
”Greetings to Saber Slave Senior.”
”Greetings to Dongfang Senior.”
”Thank you for your care during this period of time.”
Xu Taiping also smiled at the Saber Slave, and then cupped his hands and saluted the two people respectively.
“Taiping Daoist, there is no need for formalities.”
Dongfang Jing first pushed Dao Nu’s hand away with some disgust, then smiled and shook his head at Xu Taiping, and then continued： “As a reward for your reaching the twelfth floor of the Mysterious Desolation Tower this time, your primordial spirit realm will be directly promoted to the thirteenth level of the Divine Refinement Realm.”
After saying this, he slowly raised his hand and gently clenched the group of colorful brilliance that enveloped Xu Taiping.
”Boom！”
In a dull explosion sound, the group of colorful brilliance that originally enveloped Xu Taiping suddenly all merged into Xu Taiping’s body.
In an instant, an extremely strong breath fluctuation spread out from Xu Taiping’s whole body.
Xu Taiping sensed with his mind and found that two more rings suddenly appeared behind the head of the primordial spirit villain in his Niwan Palace.
”For ordinary cultivators, the thirteenth level of the primordial spirit in the Divine Refinement Stage doesn’t have much effect, at most it makes the divine essence a little deeper.”
”But after breaking through to the Transcendent Realm, the thirteenth-level primordial spirit will bring you many benefits.”
Dao Nu reminded Xu Taiping.
”Thank you for your reminder, senior.”
Xu Taiping thanked Dao Nu very seriously.
”Take it.”
At this time, Dongfang Jing took off a ring from his finger and then handed it to Xu Taiping.
”What is this？”
Xu Taiping took the ring with some doubts.
“When the Great Emperor ascended, he left three rings and asked me to give them to the first two people who reached the top of the Xuanghuang Pagoda. I just didn’t expect that the first two rings were given away long ago, and this third ring has actually waited for so many years.”
Dongfang Jing explained to Xu Taiping.
“This ring is called ‘Green Snail’. It is itself a storage ring of the fairy treasure level. The space inside can accommodate a small courtyard, but this is not important.”
“What’s important is that before the Great Emperor ascended, he divided several of his most beloved treasures into three parts and placed them in these three storage rings respectively, waiting for the predestined person to obtain them later.”
Dao Nu folded his arms across his chest and continued to add to Dongfang Jing’s words.
When Xu Taiping heard this, he inexplicably felt his hand holding the ring sink, and then he cupped his hands and thanked again: “Thank you, Great Emperor, for bestowing the treasure.”
“Daoist Taiping, don’t thank here.”
Dongfang Jing smiled at Xu Taiping, then stepped aside to make way, and looked at the staircase leading to the thirteenth floor in the center of the Great Emperor：
“If you have the heart, go and thank the Great Emperor face to face.”
Dao Nu on the side also smiled, and then also turned sideways to make way for Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping was first stunned, and then suddenly woke up as if struck by lightning——
“Going to the thirteenth floor, you can ask questions of the Xuanghuang Great Emperor！”
Although he had long heard from Old Zhang that as long as one climbed to the twelfth floor of the Xuanghuang Pagoda, one would be eligible to go to the thirteenth floor to ask the sky, inform the Xuanghuang Great Emperor of all the things that Xuanghuang Heaven had encountered over the years, and ask him to seek justice for the dead common people of Xuanghuang Heaven.
But when he really confirmed that this matter was not a legend but a fact, Xu Taiping’s mood still fluctuated violently.
”Two predecessors, won’t you go up together to meet the Xuanghuang Great Emperor？”
XU Taiping did not immediately step forward but asked the Dongfang Jing and Dao Nu in front of him.
”Apart from you who flew up through the Sword Opening the Heavenly Gate, no one is qualified to meet the Great Emperor, and we are no exception.”
Dongfang Jing smiled bitterly.
