Chapter 130: First Layer Passed with Full Marks, Heaven Rank Treasure Reward

Vanity Mountain, Heavenly Dao Hall.

[The host's eldest disciple, Leng Yanran, kills an opponent in the Eighth Layer of Profound Sky Realm opponent, you are rewarded with: 8 system points.]

Chen Daoxuan, who was dozing off, was suddenly awakened by the voice in his mind.

"Tsk, this is just right! Although it's just a Profound Sky Realm, and there aren't many system points, it's a good start. I knew it! Every time I sleep these days, my left eyelid keeps twitching. It must be another do-gooder trying to give me system points!

"Sigh, I don't ask for too much, just earn a hundred or eight hundred thousand system points. Let me break through to the Unity Realm."

Seeing the prompt in his mind, Chen Daoxuan, though Yanran had only killed a Profound Sky Realm opponent, realized that Yanran had already left the Holy Mountain. Otherwise, she wouldn't have resorted to fighting.

With this in mind, Chen Daoxuan wasn't in a hurry to continue sleeping. He had a sip of enlightenment tea to clear his mind. If his disciples were indeed facing unexpected danger, he could intervene at any time.

Transcending the great benefactors collectively and forming a group to receive a friendship discount!

…

Inside the Tower of Enlightenment, the first layer's tower spirit observed the first challenger. Surprisingly, the challenger was so careless that she made no attempt to evade the puppet's attack.

The tower spirit couldn't help but remind her, "I advise you to take advantage of your current strength and avoid its attack first, as it's easier to pass this way."

As for Leng Yanran's remark about not needing to compensate if she broke it, the tower spirit hadn't heard it at all. Despite both of them being in the First Layer of Unity realm, the puppet's toughness was equivalent to that of an Annihilation realm!

Seeing that the two figures were about to collide, Jiang Du glanced at Li Yourong not far away and was surprised to find that she showed no concern.

"Shatter."

As the puppet approached, a sinister aura swirled around Leng Yanran's fingertip. She merely used spiritual energy and sinister energy to release a burst of aura, not even utilizing her Heavenly Demon Finger technique.

Crash. A sound reverberated, and to Leng Yanran's surprise, although the puppet's head was somewhat dented from the impact, it hadn't lost its attacking ability.

It turned out she had underestimated the puppet, assuming its strength to be only that of a First Layer of Unity realm. She hadn't expected it to be this solid. Nevertheless, even this feat startled the tower spirit.

"The strength of this attack has far exceeded what can be unleashed by a First Layer of Unity realm! No wonder she's so confident. So she's a true genius capable of fighting across major realm boundaries!"

While the tower spirit was still astonished, it was about to advise Leng Yanran to stop the trial, given that she now possessed the power to contend against the Annihilation realm. Passing the First Layer would be a breeze; there was no need to endure for fifty exchanges.

Before the tower spirit could speak, however, everyone saw Leng Yanran take a punch to the head from the puppet, much to their horror.

"What the hell! Is she crazy? Why didn't she dodge!"

The tower spirit was utterly shocked. A talent like Yanran would be a waste if she perished like this! But before the tower spirit could halt the puppet's actions, it realized that the figure struck just now was only an afterimage!

The real Leng Yanran had already moved behind the combat puppet. In a swift motion, she accumulated spiritual energy and sinister aura in her hand, reaching about fifty percent of her power, and then brought her palm down on the puppet's neck.

Crack. A crisp sound echoed as the puppet's head was propelled high into the air. To the astonishment of the tower spirit, the head fell slowly to the ground, rolling to a spot not far from its feet.

"Does this count as a pass?"

Only then did Leng Yanran turn her gaze towards the tower spirit and asked in a calm tone.

"Does it count? Of course, it does… Challenger, you are the first ever to receive a perfect score. You may choose one of these three Heaven Rank Lower-Grade treasures."

The tower spirit, although a gathering of imperceptible spiritual energy, sounded thoroughly astonished. Soon, three treasure chests materialized before Leng Yanran, allowing her to select one as her reward.

Leng Yanran casually chose a Lower-Grade Heaven Rank jade hairpin as her defensive treasure. Once she made her choice, the other two chests vanished into thin air.

"Challenger, you may proceed to the second level," the tower spirit announced after she had made her selection.

However, instead of hurrying to leave, Leng Yanran returned to her junior sister, Li Yourong.

"We'll head to the second level together later," Leng Yanran informed it preemptively before the tower spirit could speak again.

She didn't want her junior sister to stay alone here, especially with a demon clan cultivator like Jiang Du, who had reached the Eighth Heaven of the Unity Realm.

"Yourong, lower your head," Leng Yanran held the Lower-Grade Heaven Rank jade hairpin she had just obtained and whispered softly to Li Yourong.

Confused but obedient, Li Yourong lowered her head. Leng Yanran then carefully placed the newly acquired treasure on Li Yourong's hair bun.

"Senior Sister, why did you give Yourong the treasure? Senior Sister treats Yourong so well…"

Li Yourong looked up, her eyes filled with gratitude. To be honest, she had never owned a treasure of her own. While on the Holy Mountain, Li Yourong had admired the treasures granted to the elders, and when she asked them for a treasure, they said it was unnecessary for someone who didn't leave the mountain and wasn't involved in conflicts.

As for her master, he promised to give her a treasure once she broke through to the Unity Realm.

"It's just an ornament, not something of real use. It doesn't suit me, so I gave it to you."

Leng Yanran responded casually to Li Yourong's emotional display. "Senior Sister, this is a Heaven Rank treasure. Yourong isn't foolish. Not everyone on the Holy Mountain has one. Only the seven elders possess them. Senior Sister, wait and see. Yourong will also challenge the trial and get a treasure for you!"

After hearing her senior sister's words, Li Yourong raised her small fist and waved it twice before heading towards the trial area.

Leng Yanran simply observed, her trust in Li Yourong's defense unwavering. Even in the Boundless Realm, breaking through her defense would take an entire day and night, not to mention these trial puppets.

As for Jiang Du, he was secretly amazed. This Tower of Enlightenment was truly a great opportunity. The first level alone rewarded a Heaven Rank treasure as a prize. What about the subsequent levels? Could it be that the rumors were true, and the ultimate reward of the Tower of Enlightenment was an immortal artifact, not just a myth?

In his eyes, Leng Yanran's simple defeat of the puppet just now implied that the puppet wasn't all that formidable.

"Challenger, are you ready? Surviving fifty exchanges will count as passing. I won't explain the rules further."

The tower spirit addressed the second challenger who stepped forward, its tone calm.

A new trial puppet materialized, its realm adjusted to the Seventh Heaven of the Profound Sky Realm. Meanwhile, the shattered puppet had been temporarily withdrawn. Repairing the severed head was easy, but shattering it would complicate matters.

"Wait a moment. I have a question… How many moves can earn the same Heaven Rank treasure reward as my sister?"
