Earth churned and rippled, and thorny brambles grew from the edge of the cursed kingdom, spreading wildly toward its core.
The swirling vines formed waves that covered and crushed all the living structures on the ground, turning them into nourishment.
Standing in the endless darkness, a figure watched this scene unfold.
The endless darkness almost became one with him, and the figure watched the earth-shaking changes beneath his feet.
The changes are happening faster than I expected.
The man scratched his head slightly and muttered to himself, "But what does all this have to do with me?"
"Let those guys from the God of Light have a headache."
A will pierced through the void, carrying his thoughts straight to the farthest reaches.
Outside the tower, vampires, humans, and elves stood there, their brows furrowed as they watched the third floor, which had fallen silent after they went inside.
The tower is indeed very tall, but its area is not very large, especially if you are only exploring this one floor.
They should have come out by now, but there's still no movement. Could something have happened inside?
The dwarf suddenly felt a little panicked. That leather armor was his treasure; if anything happened to it, he would be heartbroken.
"Why don't we go in and take a look?"
The dwarf's suggestion was not approved by anyone. Although they had just brought out a lot of good things, it was not worth risking their lives to enter the tower.
"We can look on the bright side; maybe that dragon has discovered something and is exploring it."
The vampire next to him offered a very optimistic idea.
But it is clearly not well accepted by others.
A group of people were chattering away.
Su Qing had already reached the eighth floor.
Just as the monkey had said, the cursed monsters sensed his presence and retreated far away, allowing them to reach the eighth floor safely and smoothly.
It's also the second level where there are no monsters.
However, compared to the third floor, the eighth floor is quite messy.
The ground was a mess, littered with pebbles and broken wooden items.
There was also some scrap metal; it was practically a pile of garbage.
Su Qing broadened her field of vision, scanning through the garbage again and again, but found nothing unusual.
"Is your companion finished?"
Su Qing asked with some concern.
The monkey glanced at him upon hearing this and said, "You seem to care about him even more than I do."
"Don't worry, this guy's vitality is incredibly strong, he won't die."
The monkey had barely finished speaking when it was slammed to the ground with a thud.
Little Rose looked at the monkey she had just been holding with a look of horror. She pointed at it repeatedly, and then at Su Qing.
"This monkey can talk? Isn't it made of stone?"
Su Qing looked at the little girl and sighed.
"You scared my fiancée. You need to compensate me for emotional distress. If she wants to break up with me, you also need to compensate me for a portion of my property."
Su Qing looked at the monkey with a serious expression, while the monkey looked at Su Qing with a "Holy crap" expression.
Clearly, the monkey hadn't expected the dragon to be such a scoundrel.
Suddenly, several pieces of rubble came together and transformed into a broken stone pig. It grunted and groaned for a while before slowly speaking.
So it was you!
The pieced-together rubble formed a stone pig, mostly intact, but also covered with countless cracks.
"You want to cooperate with these outsiders to deal with that guy at the top?"
"But don't forget that most of these outsiders are from the Temple of War and the Church of Light."
"Who killed us before we were alive? Don't forget."
The stone boar stared with its big eyes, glancing at Su Qing and Xiao Qiangwei before finally fixing its gaze on the monkey.
The monkey snorted coldly: "Of course I haven't forgotten, but this is a dragon. At least I can be sure that the dragon race and those guys are not on the same side."
"Otherwise, even if it means death, I will never cooperate with those guys."
Su Qing touched his nose in surprise. He really didn't expect that he would receive preferential treatment one day just because he wasn't a person.
Stone Pig looked at Su Qing again, blinked, and said, "Such pure black dragon blood. What is your relationship with the Black Dragon King?"
Su Qing puffed out her chest: "That's my grandfather!"
Both the stone pig and the monkey were a little surprised, not expecting that the person in question was from a prestigious family.
"The Black Dragon King's grandson? He's really tall!"
"You are qualified to cooperate with us!"
Su Qing sensed something was amiss: "Wait a minute, let me make this clear first. You're the ones who are seeking cooperation with me, not the other way around. You need to give me sufficient benefits."
The pig glanced at the monkey, and seeing the monkey nod, it finally spoke: "Okay, what do you want?"
"This monkey taught me ten rules."
Su Qing immediately made an outrageous demand.
But the pig clearly wasn't fooled: "You wouldn't even sell this monkey for ten rules."
The pig carefully examined the monkey: "The power of the curse hasn't weakened. What you received should be his fire law, so I'll give you one too."
He raised his hand, and a ring of water appeared on the pig's trotter.
Su Qing received it in the palm of his hand.
He immediately felt a law entering his body.
He quickly gained control of the purest power of the laws.
The Law of Waves.
"Let's go to a higher level! Time is running out. The longer we drag this out, the stronger that guy at the top will become."
Su Qing directed Little Rose to lift the two stone statues and continue walking towards the higher level.
On the eleventh floor, they encountered a tiger, also covered in cracks. After a simple persuasion, they quickly reached an agreement.
