Chapter 978 Immortal Treasure!
After Xi'er cleaned up the dirt and dust on the stone monument with her Death Energy, she found that some sentences were carved on its surface.
Tang Li Xue carefully read the sentences carved on the stone monument: "Congratulations, youngster. Since you have reached here, you must have gathered all of the treasure map's fragments I have scattered around the Azure Mist Continent, which means you are ambitious, patient, and blessed with good fortune."
"You must have also deciphered the secret codes in the treasure map to find out the way to unlock the door, which means you are meticulous, smart, and talented."
"All the traps I put at the entrance also cannot stop you, which means you are prudent, strong, and skillful."
"Only such a person can be my successor!"
Tang Li Xue instantly felt embarrassed after she read this far.
Because in fact, she did not even do any of those things stated in the stone monument.
She did not gather all of the treasure map's fragments, and only relied on Little Loki's treasure-finding ability to find this place.
She did not even know that there were actually secret codes in the treasure map to unlock the door. She just let Little Loki devour the entire door instead!
As for all the traps at the entrance, Xi'er relied on her unkillable undead body to just bulldoze everything. She might be strong, but there was nothing prudent and skillful in how she did it.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue was thick-skinned enough, so she quickly ignored the previous sentences and read the next part about the pagoda.
"The ancient pagoda in front of you is an immortal treasure that I accidentally obtained when I was young."
"Its name is [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda]."
"The time inside this [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] is ten times faster than outside. Ten days inside the pagoda is only one day outside."
"Each floor has extremely rich spiritual energy with different elements, which means you can cultivate many times faster inside with half the effort."
"Nine floors in [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] should represent fire, wind, earth, water, lightning, light, darkness, space, and time."
"Unfortunately, the last four floors, which represent light, darkness, space, and time, had already been ruined when I found this [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], leaving only five floors which represent the basic five elements."
"Although it was truly regretful, but that did not reduce the value of this [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] much because it helped me master the Profound Laws of the basic five elements in a short time."
"This [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] cannot only be used as an auxiliary treasure to assist in cultivation and mastering the Profound Laws of the basic five elements, but it can also be used as a defense treasure."
"The main reason I was able to survive the Heavenly Tribulation at the Nascent Soul Stage and Spirit Transformation Realm was because I hid in this [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] until the Heavenly Tribulation ended."
"There is a guardian on each floor, so there are five guardians in total."
"If you can subdue all the guardians, the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] will be yours to take."
"I also put all my treasures and inheritance in the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda]."
"I will also give you the last warning. This [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] is too precious, so you better not let others know about it, or those powerhouses from the Main Central Continent would surely come and rob it from you. Good luck, youngster! - Grandmaster Nie Jun."
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath in amazement after she read the message written on the stone monument.
"[Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda]~!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed excitedly while grinning with a silly but cute expression.
Even Xi'er was also astonished by the amazing effect of this [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] and said: "This [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] is really not simple. There are many treasures out there that can increase the cultivation speed and help to master the specific Profound Laws, but the treasures that involve time flow are extremely rare!"
Tang Li Xue's topaz blue eyes were shining even more brightly as she muttered in delight: "That is right! It said ten days inside the pagoda is only one day outside! I need several months or even a year to refine the destructive space energy in my body and recover, but if I practice inside that pagoda, then... Hehehehe~!"
Xi'er nodded her head and added: "With this [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], Sister Xue might only need one month or so to completely recover, but... There is still one problem for us to solve."
"What problem?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement.
"There is only one person who can enter the pagoda, and that person must subdue all five guardians first before the pagoda can be taken, so who will enter the pagoda among us?" Xi'er asked Tang Li Xue back.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Xi'er's question instantly stumped Tang Li Xue.
After pondering for a while, Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth and replied in a resolute tone: "I think there should be no problem bringing all of you with me. Let's all enter the pagoda together!"
Xi'er actually worried that Tang Li Xue would be in danger, so she wanted to enter the pagoda alone, but Tang Li Xue clearly did not agree with her idea.
Even though Xi'er had an almost unkillable body, but she could be trapped in the pagoda forever after all, if she was not careful.
It would be a different story if Tang Li Xue brought all of her team into the pagoda.
If they were somehow trapped in the pagoda, she could just let her cheating pet, Little Loki, devour the entire pagoda instead!
After making her decision, Tang Li Xue put Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia into her System's pet space while Xi'er entered [Sword of Disaster].
Tang Li Xue vigilantly approached the ancient pagoda with the pitch-black [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp.
When Tang Li Xue tried to push open the double bronze gates of the nine-story ancient pagoda, she suddenly got sucked into the nine-story ancient pagoda instead!
After Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, she found herself in the middle of the stone maze.
There was a stone plaque on the stone maze's wall.
<Earth Floor>
<Find a way out of the Earth maze to get the acknowledgement of the Earth Guardian.>
Tang Li Xue smiled while saying: "What an easy task~!"
Then Tang Li Xue summoned Xi'er out from [Sword of Disaster], and let Xi'er read the task written on the stone wall.
Tang Li Xue threw the [Sword of Disaster] back to Xi'er and instructed: "Let those ghost soldiers find the exit for us. I don't believe that more than 1,000 ghost soldiers still cannot find the exit from this maze~!"
"Got it~!" Xi'er caught the [Sword of Disaster] and released more than 1,000 ghost soldiers.
Tang Li Xue sensed that the cultivation level of those more than 1,000 ghost soldiers had already reached the Qi Condensation Stage.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in satisfaction and thought: 'Not bad~! It seems my Yuan Coins are not wasted on them. At this rate, they might be able to reach the Acupuncture Opening Stage by the end of this month."
Under Xi'er's instruction, those more than 1,000 ghost soldiers immediately spread out and searched the exit.
Tang Li Xue was once again amazed by these ghost soldiers' neat and orderly movements.
They were the fallen soldiers from the Black Dragon Army after all, so they already had plenty of experience in completing various tasks for their superior.
After half an hour or so, the leader of the ghost soldiers, who was appointed by Xi'er, reported back to Tang Li Xue and Xi'er: "Report to Miss Xi and Miss Xue, there is no exit from this maze, and this maze also keeps changing every ten minutes."
Tang Li Xue and Xi'er were confused by the ghost soldier's report.
But after a while, Tang Li Xue immediately realized it: "I see... It is said to 'find a way out of the Earth maze', not an exit. What misleading words!"
Xi'er also spoke in a solemn tone: "If it were a normal person who entered here, he would have gotten lost forever in this maze."
Then Xi'er transformed the pitch-black [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp into a huge and heavy black hammer!
BOOOOM~!
Xi'er swung her huge and heavy black hammer and broke down the stone wall with one powerful strike!
BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~!
Xi'er kept destroying the stone walls one by one with her black hammer!
After breaking dozens of stone walls, she finally found a hidden gate behind one of the stone walls.
Tang Li Xue let Xi'er and all the ghost soldiers enter the [Sword of Disaster] again before she touched the hidden gate, but before she could push open the gate...
"You are cheating~!"
Tang Li Xue suddenly heard a sound from behind.
When Tang Li Xue turned around, she actually saw a cute-looking pangolin.
"You are... Hey, don't tell me that you are the Earth Guardian?" Tang Li Xue guessed the pangolin's identity.
The pangolin put its hands on its waist and proudly replied: "That is right~! I am the mighty Earth Guardian of the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda]!"
Tang Li Xue chuckled when she saw the pangolin's childish behavior.
Tang Li Xue approached the pangolin, but before she could pet its head, the pangolin brushed Tang Li Xue's hand aside.
"Don't touch me! I have not acknowledged you yet! You are cheating just now!" The pangolin unhappily said to Tang Li Xue again.
