Chapter 57: Defeat
Bai Donglin appeared on the 37th floor of the Tower of Babel.
Looking around, I saw a mass grave and a strange blood moon hung in the dark night sky.
The mass grave was densely packed with graves and dilapidated tombstones. A gust of cold wind blew by, and pale paper money flew all over the sky. A layer of light mist enveloped the place, and green ghost fire flashed from time to time in the mist.
What the hell is this place?
Bai Donglin frowned, hoping that it wasn't some weird evil spirit. He hated this kind of opponent the most.
His divine thoughts poured out, and he took in all the movements around him. Then Bai Donglin looked towards a huge tomb, and he felt a cold and powerful aura below.
Boom boom——
It seemed as if Bai Donglin's gaze awakened the existence in the tomb. With a loud bang, the grave exploded directly!
A huge blood-red coffin came crashing towards him. Bai Donglin's eyes fixed, and without dodging or avoiding, he punched the coffin with all his strength.
Snap!
The red coffin broke into pieces, and a strong body jumped out and landed not far away.
Zombie?
Bai Donglin was stunned. An unknown creature jumped out of the coffin. It had a green face and fangs, was pitch black, and was surrounded by a cold aura.
Except for not wearing Qing Dynasty official uniform and not jumping around with arms raised, everything else about him looks like a zombie! Especially the way he appeared.
If it really is a zombie, then we're in trouble.
As we all know, zombies are monsters born from the resentment of dead people and nourished by the yin energy of heaven and earth. They are bloodthirsty, extremely powerful, invulnerable to swords and guns, are not among the five elements of heaven and earth, and have no souls.
In this way, his magical soul eye would be completely useless.
In order to prevent misjudgment, Bai Donglin decided to give it a try first. He activated his magical powers and an invisible soul attack instantly hit the opponent's forehead.
The green-faced zombie did not react at all when hit by the soul attack, but seemed to feel that Bai Donglin was attacking him. He was instantly enraged and launched an attack with a roar.
It was indeed a zombie. He shook his head helplessly. This green-faced zombie was agile in movement, without the stiff joints of ordinary zombies. It was obviously a high-level zombie with great strength.
Although the plan has changed, it is impossible for him to sit and wait for death. He unleashes all his strength and uses all kinds of secret techniques without holding back!
Boom! A man and a corpse collided violently, and the surrounding graves exploded one by one!
This green-faced zombie is much stronger than the Blood Demon. The most important thing is that its defense is too strong. It completely ignores Bai Donglin's attacks and attacks frantically, making Bai Donglin realize the disgusting nature of exchanging injuries for injuries.
With his abnormal recovery ability and various defensive secret techniques, he barely managed to withstand the attacks of the green-faced zombie. However, with every attack of the zombie, a sinister energy penetrated into his body and began to gradually suppress his recovery ability!
His brain was racing like crazy, trying to find a way out. To deal with this kind of cold and sinister creature, attacks with bright, positive energy attributes would be most effective.
Bai Donglin remembered a secret technique that should be able to restrain the green-faced zombie. The secret technique in his body started to work, and the thick blood energy flowed to his fists. The blood energy began to rotate along specific meridians, and slowly the blood energy turned into a dazzling white light.
Bai Donglin's fists seemed to turn into two little suns!
It is the secret technique - Great Sun Fist!
A bright and hot aura emerged, and the poisonous energy in the body was quickly melted away by the bright energy like snow.
The dazzling light illuminated the mass grave. The green-faced zombie was obviously annoyed by this kind of light energy. He became anxious and restless, roared, and punched Bai Donglin's head.
Bai Donglin did not dodge or evade, but directly punched forward. However, the effect was not as good as he thought. Apart from offsetting the poisonous energy that continued to enter the body, the damage caused to the green-faced zombie was very limited.
The gap between their realms was too huge, and he was completely relying on his physical strength and recovery ability to hold on!
However, now that the poisonous energy in his body has been completely exhausted, his recovery ability has been improved, and he can barely withstand the attacks of the green-faced zombie. The injuries in his body are constantly revolving, and waves of energy are constantly strengthening his soul.
Whether you can win or not is another matter, the purpose of gaining energy cannot be changed.
The battle between one man and one corpse became more and more intense! The aftermath razed the mass grave to the ground. Bai Donglin could only barely protect his head. Other parts of his body were hit from time to time. Every time he was hit, his flesh and bones were torn apart. In addition to its amazing defense, the green-faced zombie also had a terrifying attack. It also ignored attacks from the soul and spirit. It was really difficult to deal with!
Finally, the blood essence in Bai Donglin's body was exhausted, and the Sun Fist could no longer be maintained. His body was filled with poisonous energy, and strengthening energy continued to emerge.
After hundreds of crazy attacks, the green-faced zombie pierced Bai Donglin's chest with a single hand knife. The condensed strength exploded instantly, and his internal organs were stirred into blood foam. At the same time, the poison erupted, and he died instantly.
The moment Bai Donglin was beaten to death, the space and time of the entire thirty-seven-layer small world instantly solidified.
The green-faced zombie and Bai Donglin were both frozen in the moment of the fierce battle. The splattering blood, the ferocious eyes of the zombies, the falling paper money, and the rubble and dust blown away by the aftermath, everything was frozen in the air.
It was as if everything was paused, and then the frozen picture rewound and went back to the second before the green-faced zombie was about to stab Bai Donglin to death. The moment time resumed flowing, Bai Donglin was kicked out of the Tower of Babel.
The challenge failed.
The Tower of Babel is mysterious and has the ability to control space and time. For example, the small world on each floor has countless identical parallel small worlds, which can provide the same challenge venue for many disciples at the same time.
After death, one will be resurrected by going back in time. This is also the setting of the Tower of Babel. In order to cultivate the combat capabilities of the disciples, the Holy Sect even lets them experience death personally. Of course, they will not let them really die.
If I have to die, I'd rather not die in such a small world. At least my death should be meaningful.
Although it was only to control the time and space of the small world in the tower, this ability still made Bai Donglin envious. These were the two abilities he desired so much! The memories of what happened after his death were not erased, so he knew clearly what he had just experienced.
He was not discouraged by the failure of the challenge. After all, he had achieved his goal of increasing his energy, so the trip was not in vain.
As for the green-faced zombie, he will come to settle accounts with him when he becomes stronger. At that time, he will dance on the green-faced zombie's grave! At this time, the Jidao bracelet emitted a red light, and a message came into his mind.
Successfully challenge the tenth level and be rewarded with one thousand contribution points.
…
Successfully challenge the 20th level and be rewarded with 2,000 contribution points.
…
Successfully challenge the 30th level and be rewarded with 5,000 contribution points.

…
Reach the top of the list and maintain it for one month, and you will be rewarded with a magical power, which you can choose at the Monument Realm.
The top 1,000 on the Rising Star List will receive different rewards based on their ranking at the end of each month.
Note: Disciples are not allowed to cheat with each other to get on the list. If found, the Holy Sect will punish them according to its rules.
After receiving the information, Bai Donglin felt that many items appeared out of thin air in the Jidao bracelet. It turned out that after the tenth floor, each floor had rewards. Except for the tenth floor which rewarded contribution points, the other floors rewarded things like elixirs, magic tools and materials. The reward for each floor was a one-time reward for the first clearance.
However, one has to maintain the top spot for a month to obtain the magical power reward. It seems that I have to kill the green-faced zombie as soon as possible and then reach the next level. That Shen Wuque is quite powerful, so I have to avoid being snatched away by him!
"He is Bai Donglin!"
At this moment, a loud shout interrupted Bai Donglin's thoughts. He looked up and saw that the person shouting was a disciple of Taishang Valley, whom he had met several times.
"Where? Where? Where is Bai Donglin?"
"Get out of the way, let me see the boss!"
"Hello, Brother Bai, I am..."
"Get out of my way! Baishen, do you need a pendant on your thigh?"
“…”
For a moment, Bai Donglin was surrounded by the crowd, and even more disciples who couldn't squeeze in were standing on tiptoe, wanting to catch a glimpse of the face of the new topper on the Rising Star List.
Bai Donglin smiled helplessly, bowed to the people around him in an elegant and easy-going manner and said:
"My fellow disciples, thank you for your kindness. I was able to top the list by sheer luck. I have only humble skills, so I cannot claim to be brave."
"I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now. I'll have a chance to drink with you guys later!"
After saying that, he walked out of the light gate and escaped from the crowd.
"Wow! Mr. Bai is so humble and gentle!"
"Yes! Yes! It's completely different from the aloof Shen Wuque and the domineering Tu Ya."
"Love it! Love it!"
Bai Donglin did not get entangled with these people for too long. Although these disciples of the Holy Sect looked pretentious, they were all very cunning and none of them who could pass the Holy Sect's assessment were easy to deal with.
Bai Donglin did not return to Zizhuju, but came to Shushan.
After a battle with the green-faced zombie and the strange gray fog on the Nujiang River, he found that he knew too little about these strange and evil things, and he didn't have any highly targeted means.
This time I went into the mountain of books for the second time, one was to find some means to deal with evil spirits, and secondly, my soul is much stronger now, and it’s time to absorb another wave of knowledge!
Learning has no end. Bai Donglin never has too much knowledge. He learns as much as he can, because it will be useful one day.
The bracelet flashed red, and he took a step into the mountain of books.
