152: Get the token again
His thoughts returned.
Before Cao Nie, a black Battle Puppet appeared, clutching a cold blade in both hands, its eyes hollow as it stared at him.
"Kill!"
The Battle Puppet roared, raising its blade to strike at Cao Nie.
Cao Nie raised his hand, and the Netherworld Sword appeared, which he used to block the blade.
The clang of metal echoed within this vast white space.
"So it really is just the standard Tribulation Extinction Realm Fifth Layer level. In that case, this will be easy," Cao Nie grinned, as Divine Demon Power surged out, and a golden-red light intertwined on the Netherworld Sword.
A terrifying sword light flashed, and the Battle Puppet was immediately sent flying backward.
Before it even landed, it had already dissipated into specks of starlight.
"Congratulations, you have passed the first layer," a mysterious voice came from all directions.
Cao Nie investigated several times but couldn't pinpoint its origin!
The scene shifted, and he was already standing on a cliff.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Two sword lights suddenly shot out from in front of and behind him.
Cao Nie's figure flickered, appearing behind the Battle Puppet that was behind him, and the Netherworld Sword instantly pierced through its chest.
The overbearing Divine Demon Power instantly shredded the Battle Puppet's body.
Finally, it dissipated into specks of starlight before him.
Another Battle Puppet rushed over from a distance. Cao Nie casually waved his hand, and a sword light whistled past. This Battle Puppet, like the previous one, dissipated into starlight.
"Congratulations, you have broken through the second layer."
The scene before him flickered. Looking at the four Battle Puppets that appeared, Cao Nie shook his head, "Boring, truly boring."
It might be difficult for someone who can only transcend one minor realm to pass the War Sky Tower.
But for him, this War Sky Tower held no challenge at all.
Even if there were tens of thousands or millions of ordinary Battle Puppets of the same realm, they would be equallyVulnerable to him.
Five breaths later.
Cao Nie appeared on an endless snow mountain.
Around him, two hundred and fifty-six Battle Puppets surrounded him.
Cao Nie stood with his hands behind his back, a disdainfulradian curved at the corner of his mouth.
"Weak, too weak," He put away the Netherworld Sword and slowly raised his right hand.
"Kill!"
All two hundred and fifty-six Battle Puppets roared in unison, their voices piercing through the vast snow mountain. Their figures transformed into streaks of light and charged towards Cao Nie.
A contemptuous smile appeared on Cao Nie's lips.
His five fingers slightly spread, and a terrifying pressure suddenly erupted.
The entire snow mountain instantly froze, even the falling snowflakes became still in mid-air.
"Perish!"
A sharp shout rang out, and a visible ripple of Divine Demon Power spread out from him as its center.
Wherever it passed, those Battle Puppets had no chance to react, turning into dust and dissipating in the wind and snow.
The sky-full of snow began to fall again, unable to conceal the lingering killing intent on this snowy plain.
Cao Nie withdrew his hand, his clothes not even ruffled in the slightest.
"This level of trial is a waste of my time."
As his voice fell, the entire snowy plain began to collapse.
Cao Nie appeared inside a spacious hall.
This, surprisingly, was the ninth layer of the War Sky Tower.
"Congratulations, you have passed the trial of the War Sky Tower and obtained the Battle Heaven Token."
A verdant jade token appeared, indistinguishable from the Hidden Heaven Token, the only difference being that the character for 'hidden' was replaced with 'battle'.
Upon closer inspection, these two seemed like they could fit together.
"Please choose a set of formations," the mysterious voice sounded again.
"Rumble!"
A loud noise came from above, and thousands of jade slips floated out, circling around Cao Nie.
Cao Nie regained his focus, deciding to deal with the token matter later.
With his True Sight activated.
He immediately locked onto one of the jade slips.
Spirit Devouring Blood Soul Grand Array: A top-tier Immortal Array of the First Rank, requiring one Red Dust Immortal, nine Half-Immortals, thirty-six Tribulation Extinction Realm cultivators, and three hundred and sixty-five Gui Xu Realm cultivators to set up together.
Once this array is formed, the living beings within it will turn into blood food, to be used by the array setters and those within the array's core to enhance their cultivation.
Cao Nie extended his hand to grab, and the jade slip containing the Spirit Devouring Blood Soul Grand Array fell into his palm.
A blood-red glint flickered in his eyes, and a ruthless plan was already brewing in his mind.
