The Grand Elder Reaches the Twentieth Floor
This time, Hua Qiang didn't rush to the next level, but instead strolled around this red land.
He had a feeling that there might be some hidden secrets behind every ten levels, and that the level designers wouldn't just let people pass the levels so simply; there had to be some kind of reward or reward!
He had some doubts when he was at the tenth level, but he was already satisfied with his understanding of the Law of Force and didn't think about it too much.
Now, standing on the twentieth level, this thought has resurfaced and grown stronger.
Hua Qiang continued walking and searching, even extending his Spiritual Sense.
He sensed that the energy fluctuations in one place were stronger than in other places, so he quickly went over there.
The closer you get, the stronger the energy fluctuations become.
As he reached the center of this energy fluctuation, pop! A wave of earth suddenly rose from the ground, and then a fist-sized red crystal leaped into the air.
The crystal circled around Hua Qiang a few times, then burst into flames, transforming into a massive fireball that enveloped Hua Qiang.
Hua Qiang's eyes widened suddenly, his body enveloped in endless surging flames, the intense heat distorting the air, and every inch of his skin felt as if it were being pierced by thousands of red-hot steel needles.
Panic gripped his heart instantly, and he leaped up, rushing toward the edge of the flames. However, the moment he touched that seemingly fragile boundary, an invisible and powerful force bounced him back like an impenetrable wall.
"This is—the power of laws!"
After Hua Qiang staggered and regained his footing, he suddenly understood.
Having experienced countless perilous battles and comprehended the power of various laws, he possesses a beast-like keen sense of the rhythm of these rules.
At that moment, although the raging flames all around were overwhelming, they also allowed him to accurately perceive the hidden order within them— the Law of Fire.
It seems that the only way to break free from this burning cage is to use one's own control over the Law of Fire to resist and find that delicate balance.
He had no time to spare at that moment, so he immediately sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and immersed his mind in that blazing realm of laws.
At first, Hua Qiang's consciousness was like a lone boat adrift in a sea of fire, struggling to explore the surface of the Law of Fire.
His Law of Fire was that of a novice, and when faced with this raging inferno, he was like a toddler learning to walk.
To him, the flames were merely the most superficial heat and destructive intent; each contact felt like grasping scalding lava with bare hands, causing unbearable burning pain.
This violent power of law is like a mischievous young beast; it scatters and runs away as soon as it is touched, and is difficult to tame.
Hua Qiang's eyes narrowed, and he gritted his teeth, deeply immersed in the excruciating pain.
Gradually, he noticed the rhythm of the flickering flames, as if hidden drumbeats were striking in each cluster of fire.
His mind followed the rhythm, and a faint sense of control quietly began to grow within him.
As his synchronization with the rhythm became more and more precise, the temperature around Hua Qiang's body began to calm down in a strange way.
The flames that were originally raging wildly have become somewhat docile, which is a sign of initial success.
At this moment, he could freely draw upon the wisps of power from the surrounding flames and transform them into his own.
A faint, cloud-like aura, like the glow of dawn, enveloped his body, protecting him from the onslaught of external flames.
But Hua Qiang's ambitions didn't stop there; he wanted to achieve great things, to completely dominate this cage of fire.
His consciousness, like a fearless explorer, bravely ventured into the core depths of the Flame Law.
There, he saw the source of light and heat, a pure vortex of energy that spun and tore violently, containing the dual truths of creation and destruction.
Hua Qiang opened his consciousness completely to accept and integrate this power. Every moment felt like dancing with the Star Core. If he was not careful, he would be completely swallowed up and turned into dust.
After an unknown amount of time, Hua Qiang's body suddenly trembled, and his eyes snapped open, burning with intense flames yet as deep and unfathomable as an abyss.
At this moment, he and the sea of fire around him were indistinguishable; the flames seemed to be an extension of his body, moving at will.
With each raised hand, the sea of fire surged with towering waves; with each breath, the heat surged and roared.
The cage of laws that bound him crumbled and disintegrated like paper before this immense power.
Hua Qiang's figure, enveloped in endless flames, stood proudly, like a god reborn from the ashes.
Hahahaha!
Sensing the Law of Fire of the Great Realm, Hua Qiang let out a hearty laugh.
This Trial Tower is truly a wonderful place.
He raised his head and shouted into the air, "Continue!"
"Senior brother, look! The Supreme Elder has reached the twentieth level!"
"Huh? It really is true, the Supreme Elder has indeed reached the twentieth level."
"The Supreme Elder is amazing! How long has it been? That speed is incredible!"
"Hahaha, I knew the Supreme Elder was asleep before. Now he's awake and starting to exert his power!"
One disciple stood with his hands behind his back, chest puffed out, looking quite smug.
"Yes, yes, Senior Brother Qin is right. If it weren't for some delay, the Supreme Elder would have already reached countless levels!"
One of the people next to this man said ingratiatingly.
"Tch! You country bumpkin who's never seen the world. It's just the twentieth floor. My senior brother is already on the thirtieth floor."
Did I show off? Did I become arrogant?
A man in a blue disciple's robe standing nearby sneered disdainfully.
"You dare to talk about our Supreme Elder? Are you asking for trouble?" Wang Lishuang's forehead veins bulged as he roared.
"Hey! You country bumpkin, still not convinced by Chad? You keep calling yourself the Supreme Elder, but if your Supreme Elder is this weak, I advise you not to participate in this Martial Arts Competition. It's embarrassing!"
"You... bastard, are you deliberately provoking me? Want to fight?"
"Heh, go ahead and fight! You piece of trash, I could take on ten of you by myself!"
Wang Lishuang's eyes turned red, and he wanted to rush over and teach that arrogant person a lesson.
"Junior Brother Wang, don't fall into someone else's trap!"
Liu Shuyao stopped Wang Lishuang's impulsive act and gave the man a cold glance.
Seeing that Wang Lishuang had stopped, the man was very disappointed and muttered, "Coward!"
"You..."
Wang Lishuang clenched his fists, turned his head away, and ignored him.
He still had to listen to what Liu Shuyao said.
Hua Qiang was unaware of what was happening outside. At this moment, he was in a swampy area, with ten Ironclad Crocodile in front of him, each with its blood-red mouth wide open, charging towards him.
Hua Qiang remained calm, flicked his fingers, and ten Little Fire appeared in the air.
The moment the fireball appeared, the ten crocodiles seemed to sense a tremendous threat, their eyes filled with terror, and they turned and fled for their lives.
Hua Qiang's face showed surprise. This script is not right!
But how could he let the mission objective slip by? He muttered to himself, "Go!"
Ten Little Fire shot out and caught up with the fleeing Ironclad Crocodile in the blink of an eye.
