Chapter 330
In the Tower of Babel.
Xiao Jinting killed the demonic beast and took out a jar, carefully collecting the beast blood.
There were some treasures on the first five floors of the tower, but they had almost been collected. As a result, he didn’t find anything valuable, but it was less dangerous.
It was different with the sixth floor, which was packed with demonic beasts of Foundation Establishment and Golden Core. These demonic beasts were special, as if they were bred by a special method by the tower. The blood of these demonic beasts had a strong body-refining effect, which benefited hugely the spiritual power.
Xiao Jinting felt that his cultivation seemed to have improved, so he planned to advance to the advanced level of Golden Core before he went up to the seventh floor.
There were quite many Golden Core cultivators staying on the sixth floor like Xiao Jinting. It was said that the seventh floor was more dangerous than the sixth floor. Most Golden Core cultivators were contented with the amount of the treasures on the sixth floor.
Xiao Jinting thought to himself, “The old man of the Cao family is a bastard, so is the old man of the Ye family.”
Ye Mi said that Cao He would not go too far, but Xiao Jinting met Cao Tong on the sixth floor and got tricked by him. That old man tossed him among the demonic beasts, and Xiao Jinting managed to run away with an escaping talisman. If he had not had so many life-saving methods, he would have got killed.
Xiao Jinting stayed on the sixth floor because he was reluctant to leave the demonic beasts on the sixth floor and he was afraid to encounter Cao He on the seventh floor.
Although Xiao Jinting was proud, he knew about the huge gap between a Golden Core and a Nascent Soul.
A Nascent Soul was far superior to a Golden Core in terms of the spiritual Qi and the attacking speed. Xiao Jinting thought that with his current strength he could not defeat Cao Tong even if he resorted to all the methods. He might rival Cao He after he became a Peak Golden Core.
Xiao Jinting gritted his teeth and said inwardly, “It’s not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. When I advance to Nascent Soul stage, I will give that old man hell.”
Xiao Jinting roughly calculated the time and found that it had been three months since he entered the Tower of Babel. He couldn’t help worrying about Xu Muan and the others.
Xiao Jinting thought that Xu Muan should be safe since he was quiet and gentle and would not offend anyone. He was relieved.
Thinking his lover was the very gentile, Xiao Jinting had not imagined that Xu Muan would make a big commotion in Nebula Island.
Xiao Jinting collected himself and entered the space, preparing to advance to the advanced level of Golden Core.
…
On the seventh floor of the Tower of Babel.
“Mr. Xiao, I’m very glad to finally see you here.”
Ye Mi looked excited when he saw Xiao Jinting, who didn’t know if he was sincere.
“Mr. Ye, nice to see you again,” Xiao Jinting said with a faint smile when he saw Ye Mi.
Xiao Jinting was a little surprised that he met an acquaintance right after he got to the seventh floor.
“Mr. Xiao, your cultivation… you’ve advanced to the advanced levele of Golden Core,” said Ye Miao with surprise.
After Ye Mi reached the seventh floor, he heard that Xiao Jinting was stuck with the demonic beasts, thinking that Xiao Jinting was dead. He pitied him for a while and forgot him behind. Death was too common in the Tower of Babel, and no one knew what would happen in next second.
Ye Mi did not expect to see Xiao Jinting again, and he was surprised that the latter had made advancement.
Xiao Jinting had killed Elder Yuyao when he was a Medium Golden Core, and he should be more powerful now that he had advanced to the advanced level of Golden Core.
Looking at the young man in front of him, Ye Mi felt sad about his own old age.
“Sorry, I didn’t expect Senior Cao to actually…” Ye Mi had never imagined that a Nascent Soul like Cao He would attack Xiao Jinting.
Xiao Jinting waved his hand and said, “Don’t talk about this anymore.” His current strength was inferior to that of Cao He. If the news that Cao He had pushed him to the demonic beast with murderous intention spread out, Xiao Jinting would be in trouble.
“Senior Cao used to be quite broad-minded. I don’t know what has happened to him this time. Maybe his concubines persuaded him to do so!”
Ye Mi said seriously, which made Xiao Jinting feel a little strange.
“Mr. Ye, what is the situation on the seventh floor?” Xiao Jinting changed the topic.
“This seventh floor is a space of small rocks.”
Xiao Jinting noticed that the seventh floor was filled with small rocks, which moved extremely fast without a pattern.
Ye Mi said slowly, “Mr. Xiao, you think the small rocks are moving very fast, but we are at the entrance of the seventh floor, and they actually move slower here.”
“The closer to the center, the more violent the rock storm gets. The small rocks move the fastest in the center, and they could easily pierce the body of a Golden Core cultivator at the advanced level. The entrance to the eighth floor is in the center of the space.”
“Nascent Soul cultivators move much faster than Golden Cores, and they are able to detect the moving pattern of the small rocks to dodge them in time.”
“The physique of a Nascent Soul is much stronger than a Golden Core. Those rocks that could easily kill the Golden Core could only cause limited injury to the Nascent Soul even if they hit him. In general, only the Nascent Soul cultivators could make it to the center of the storm and enter the eighth floor.”
Xiao Jinting looked at Ye Mi and asked in confusion, “Mr. Ye, are you injured?”
At first, Xiao Jinting didn’t notice it. After he talked with Ye Mi for a while, he sensed his weakness.
Xiao Jinting thought to himself, “Ye Mi must have entered the storm and got injured, so he retreated to this safer place.”
