Chapter 762: Chapter 759: Eighteenth Floor!_1
“Fu Laogui, who are you saying is bragging?” Zhu Hailong sternly asked.
Fu Laogui was an old man with a frail appearance and a full white beard. He didn’t have much interaction with Zhu Hailong, and their relationship was only average. He came from the Western 42 Regions.
Of course, Zhu Hailong wasn’t scared of Fu Laogui. As long as it wasn’t a super power, their Green Lotus Sect could handle them.
Fu Laogui sneered, “Isn’t he bragging? You said that when Yang Chen was at the Yuanwu Realm Fifth Layer, he reached the 16th floor of the Trial Tower. Heh, do you think your Eastern Number One Genius can compare to the geniuses from the Central Region?”
Without a doubt, the geniuses from the Central Region were better than those from other regions.
First, the Central Region had a vast territory and abundant resources. Second, the Central Region was the territory of the royal family, led and managed by the royal family themselves. This made the geniuses from the Central Region far superior to those from other regions.
Take Han Zheng and Wu Sheng, for example. Both of them were geniuses from the Central Region.
Only the geniuses from the Central Region could reach the 15th floor and above when they were at Yuanwu Realm Fifth Layer. When people heard that a genius from the Eastern Thirty-six Counties like Yang Chen could do it, they couldn’t help but sneer and scoff.
“Zhu Hailong, I suggest you stop daydreaming. In my opinion, this Yang kid is already doing well reaching the 16th floor. That’s his limit. Hahaha!” Another Heaven Martial Realm elder laughed loudly.
Zhu Hailong’s face darkened, “Humph, we will see soon enough. If Yang Chen could reach the 16th floor with his Yuanwu Realm Fifth Layer strength, then now, with his current abilities, reaching the 17th or 18th floor shouldn’t be a problem!”
As his words fell, the Heaven Martial Realm elders nearby couldn’t help but scoff.
“Hahaha!”
“Old Zhu, we know each other well enough, so let me give you some advice. Don’t expect too much. What’s that saying? The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.”
“This Zhu guy thinks too highly of himself. Reaching the 18th floor? Haha, what a big joke. What can this kid use to get past the 18th floor? In my opinion, he can barely pass the 16th floor…” Fu Laogui sneered.
He had no vested interest with Zhu Hailong, so he didn’t mind sneering a few more times. After all, Zhu Hailong couldn’t do anything to him anyway.
Moreover, he also felt that Zhu Hailong was being delusional. He couldn’t stand the thought of him getting such an excellent genius.
However, just as his words ended, suddenly, the light on the 16th floor went out, and Yang Chen entered the 17th floor!
“Huh?”
Everyone saw this scene.
17th floor!
This was a watershed. As long as a Half-step True Martial Realm could reach this point, there was no doubt that they could be called a genius.
“Hmph, do you see it now?” Zhu Hailong was the most gratified.
Frankly, he wasn’t sure if the elder under his command was telling the truth or just spreading rumors. But when faced with other people’s doubts, he couldn’t just outright deny what his own people had said, so he clenched his fist and held his ground.
Now he could see that his own people hadn’t lied to him.
Yang Chen had passed the 16th floor and entered the 17th floor.
Feeling relieved and happy, Zhu Hailong looked at those Heaven Martial Realm old men who had just questioned him and sneered, “Gentlemen, do you have anything else to say now? The 17th floor, how about that? Is our Eastern Number One Genius good enough to enter your Dharma Eye?”
The other old men had nothing to say since Yang Chen had indeed shown his abilities. Only Fu Laogui snorted, “Hmph, Zhu Hailong, don’t get too proud too early. Maybe the 17th floor is just by luck. And what are you so proud of? It’s just the 17th floor after all. The key is the 18th floor. Wait until he reaches the 18th floor and then you can be proud. But unfortunately, in my opinion, his limit is just the 18th floor.”
“Humph!” Zhu Hailong looked at Fu Laogui’s malicious words and couldn’t help but feel annoyed.
However, he knew that everything had to be settled by the results, and he was too lazy to argue with Fu Laogui any further.
Yang Chen, who was inside the Trial Tower, had no idea what was happening outside. He didn’t know how Zhu Hailong and Fu Laogui were arguing fiercely because of him.
All he did was for the sake of breaking through the Trial Tower.
“Phew…” At this moment, Yang Chen was skillfully maneuvering around and muttered, “Absorbing the Creation Divine Aura from the 16th floor feels great. I feel like I can break through to the True Martial Realm at any moment. But I mustn’t be hasty; I have to suppress these Creation Divine Auras in my body and break through all at once!”
Just like when he was in the Spirit Martial Realm, he was now using his Half-step True Martial Realm strength to attempt the Trial Tower. Each breakthrough brought him Creation Divine Aura, which was the foundation for his strength increase.
By suppressing and utilizing these refined Creation Divine Auras for his breakthrough, he could directly reach the Second Level of the True Martial Realm or even higher in one go.
Now, he was curious to see how many floors he could reach.
“Break!” Yang Chen’s expression was determined.
At this moment, the Holy Ants attacked, along with the Starfire and Shapeshifting Liquid Fire. Yang Chen unleashed all three moves, surrounding the seventeen Stone Monsters on the 17th floor and continuing his chain bombardment.
The power of such a bombardment was undeniable, even shaking the ground beneath him.
Despite this, he barely managed to break the Combined Attack Formation of the Stone Monsters on the 17th floor.
“Break!” Yang Chen shouted sharply.
Boom!
The explosion sounds could cause ears to ring, and Yang Chen stared intently at the seventeen Stone Monsters in front of him. Their surrounding Combined Attack Formation quickly shattered with cracking sounds.
Seeing this, Yang Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “It really wasn’t easy. The Combined Attack Formation used by the Stone Monsters on the 17th floor is indeed extraordinary. It took me so long to break it, and I don’t know what the 18th and 19th floors will be like. Anyway, let’s not think about that for now. I need to kill these seventeen Stone Monsters first!”
As his words fell, Yang Chen controlled the Dual Flames and Holy Ants to directly crush the seventeen Stone Monsters.
It took him a long time on the 17th floor, probably half an hour. But that was normal. For anyone at this level, the time spent would gradually increase.
“Phew…” Yang Chen gently exhaled.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Then, the surrounding Creation Divine Aura emerged.
When he finished absorbing the Creation Divine Aura, Yang Chen entered the 18th floor.
Similarly, in the outside world, there was a commotion when he entered the 18th floor.
“The 18th floor!”
“This Yang Chen has reached the 18th floor!”
Zhu Hailong couldn’t stop smiling now, clapping his hands and happily shouted like an old child.
Soon after, his gaze locked onto Fu Laogui nearby.
What do you think?
