The golden light grew brighter and brighter, as if the sun had fallen to earth, bathing the entire forest in a dreamlike glow. Without hesitation, Lin Qian plunged into the vortex. After a dizzying spin, she found herself in an unfamiliar space.
This is a vast, boundless grassland. The sky is a clear, deep blue, and a gentle breeze carries the fragrance of fresh grass. In the distance, a towering pagoda stands majestically, its surface shimmering with light, like a dazzling pearl, radiating an undeniable brilliance.
"Is that the Linglong Tower?" Lin Qian murmured to herself, a hint of excitement flashing in her eyes.
According to ancient records, the Linglong Pagoda was left by a powerful being in ancient times. It contains countless treasures and secret manuals of cultivation techniques. There are even rumors that the secret to becoming an immortal is hidden at the top of the pagoda.
Lin Qian had been preparing for this moment for far too long.
She gripped her longsword tightly and raced toward the Linglong Tower.
However, just as Lin Qian was about to reach the foot of the Linglong Tower, a sudden change occurred!
The once peaceful grassland suddenly began to tremble violently, the ground cracking inch by inch, as if something was about to burst forth from the earth.
"roar--"
The deafening roar of the beast rang out again, this time filled with anger and brutality, like a demon from hell, sending chills down one's spine.
Immediately afterwards, a behemoth several times larger than the previous armored bear emerged from the ground.
The behemoth was covered in dark red scales that gleamed with a cold metallic sheen. Its enormous eyes, like two blood moons, shone with a bloodthirsty light. Its massive mouth opened wide, revealing sharp fangs that seemed capable of devouring everything.
"A fifth-tier... fifth-order demonic beast, the Crimson Flame Demon Dragon!"
Lin Qian's expression changed drastically, her eyes filled with horror.
A fifth-tier demonic beast is equivalent to a Golden Core stage expert among human cultivators. Its strength is terrifying and far beyond what she can currently contend with!
The Crimson Flame Dragon opened its blood-red maw, spewing out a blazing flame that instantly engulfed the spot where Lin Qian had been standing.
Lin Qian dodged the attack with a flustered posture, her heart filled with horror.
The power of this Crimson Flame Demon Dragon was even more terrifying than she had imagined!
"roar--"
Seeing that its attack had missed, the Crimson Flame Dragon became even more enraged. It roared to the sky and launched another attack on Lin Qian.
Lin Qian dared not be careless and hurriedly swung her sword to defend. However, the power of the Crimson Flame Demon Dragon was too great. Her sword was knocked away, and she was forced back dozens of steps, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
"Damn it!" Lin Qian cursed inwardly, her heart filled with resentment.
Should we just give up like this?
No!
She will never give up!
She has sacrificed so much for revenge and to become stronger; she absolutely cannot fall here!
Lin Qian took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the surging blood and qi within her body, a resolute look flashing in her eyes.
"Let's give it our all!"
She quickly formed hand seals, and an even more powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted from her body. The surrounding space seemed unable to withstand this powerful force and began to tremble violently.
"Nine Heavens Thunder, heed my command, descend!"
Lin Qian let out a delicate shout, and the sky instantly became stormy, with dark clouds covering the ground. Thick bolts of purple lightning, as thick as water buckets, rolled through the clouds, radiating a terrifying aura of destruction.
"go!"
Lin Qian pointed her finger at the Crimson Flame Demon Dragon, and the lightning in the sky seemed to be guided, carrying a world-destroying power as it bombarded the Crimson Flame Demon Dragon.
"roar--"
Sensing the threat, the Crimson Flame Dragon roared to the sky, opened its blood-red maw, and spewed out an even more terrifying flame in an attempt to block the lightning attack.
However, this thunder is the most powerful and yang force in the world, how could mere flames possibly withstand it?
"boom--"
A deafening explosion rang out, and the entire space trembled violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
Lin Qian looked up and saw that the Crimson Flame Demon Dragon had been struck by lightning. Its huge body was blasted open, covered in blood, its scales were broken, and it let out a shrill scream.
"This journey has been anything but peaceful," Lin Qian muttered to herself, brushing the dust off her clothes. Her eyes, however, showed no sign of weariness, but rather shone with excitement at the opportunity that was about to be hers.
Ever since she stepped into this exquisite tower, she has been overcoming all obstacles, from the armored bear at the beginning to the crimson flame dragon later on, each one a notorious and ferocious beast. If it weren't for the system in her hands, which always allowed her to turn danger into safety at crucial moments, she would probably have lost her life here long ago.
However, thanks to these "roadblocks," her spiritual power has been tempered in battle after battle, and her cultivation is now showing signs of a breakthrough.
We have finally arrived at the center of the Linglong Tower, the place where this opportunity will ultimately lead.
Thinking of this, Lin Qian's lips curled slightly, revealing a confident smile.
At the center of the exquisite tower, shimmering light and swirling spiritual energy created a misty atmosphere. A white jade altar emitted a soft glow. In the center of the altar, a lotus-shaped flame burned quietly, and at the heart of the flame, a golden bead the size of a thumb could be faintly seen, radiating a heart-stirring aura.
"Is this the legendary Nine-Turn Golden Pill?" Lin Qian gazed at the golden bead, a fiery glint in her beautiful eyes. The Nine-Turn Golden Pill, according to legend, was refined by an ancient powerful being using their entire life's cultivation. Consuming it could instantly boost one's cultivation, break through bottlenecks, and even offer a chance to comprehend the power of laws!
"Is this the legendary Nine-Turn Golden Pill?" Lin Qian stared at the golden bead, a fiery glint in her beautiful eyes.
However, obtaining the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir was no easy task. When Lin Qian tried to approach the altar, a powerful force blocked her way. She tried several times but could not break free from its hold.
