Chapter 1133 Sword Tablet

Chapter 1133 Sword Tablet

"Fuck! What's taking him so long?! He's been on the fourth floor for 2 hours now!" The spectators were getting impatient, as most of them had only expected to wait at most another half an hour before Yuan got kicked out of the Sword Pagoda.

Even Long Chen couldn't help but wonder what was going on inside.

'What's he doing inside? The third floor forces one to use divine sense due to the restriction, so it wouldn't make sense to prolong the fights. Even if he's not using his divine sense, the guardian should be attacking him relentlessly, giving him no time to rest. To spend so much time on one floor, there's no way he's getting past the fourth floor!'

After another hour of waiting, the sword light on the fourth floor finally moved to the fifth floor.

This shocked everyone there.

"He actually managed to beat the fourth floor after spending three whole hours there?!"

'No way…" Long Chen, who knew very well about the restrictions, was even more baffled than the others.

As someone who climbed to the fifth floor, he knew better than anyone there how unforgiving the Sword Pagoda was, and for Yuan to endure three hours on the fourth floor was nothing short of a miracle.

'What happened in there? I really want to see it!' Long Chen's hands curled up into fists.

"Oh? If it isn't the Silver Dragon. Why are you just standing out here? Aren't you going to challenge the Sword Pagoda?" A voice that Long Chen recognized suddenly resounded.

He turned around to see a group of individuals approaching him from a distance.

Of course, just like Long Chen, they were all from the upper heavens.

"I already went inside," he said in a calm voice, trying his best to hide his emotions.

"Really? Then why are you still here? Hmm? Wow! There's someone on the fifth floor!" These people finally noticed the single light in the Sword Pagoda.

"Why is there only one person inside?" One of them asked.

"Because I am not allowing anyone to step foot inside until that person comes out." Long Chen said, and he continued, "This includes you lot."

"You know who's inside the Sword Pagoda?"

"I don't really know him since we've just met a few hours ago." Long Chen shook his head. "However, he's definitely talented."

"Unbelievable! Did the Silver Dragon just praise someone from this lowly place?!"

"I can't wait to tell the others about this! This is an unprecedented event!"

"I doubt they'll even believe us!"

This group of people started laughing.

Long Chen sneered, "You may mock him for his background, but none of you can compare to this person who came from the very background that you're currently laughing at."

These people immediately stopped laughing after hearing such words.

"Hey, Silver Dragon, cut the crap. You really expect us to believe that someone from this dump is better than us?! There's a limit to your lies even if you just want to mess with us!"

Long Chen glared at the person who just spoke while emitting killing intent, "Cut the crap? Who the hell do you think you're talking to, Mu Shun? If you think I won't dare to kill you because we're down here, you're sorely mistaken."

This person known as Mu Shun trembled in fear.

"I-I apologize. I accidentally blurted out something disrespectful to you because of your outrageous claim that someone from Third Heaven could possibly match us."

"Outrageous, huh? Is it really that unbelievable?" Long Chen pointed at the Sword Pagoda before continuing, "I failed on the fifth floor, so this person who also managed to step foot on the fifth floor is at least as talented as myself. Hell, I would be surprised even if half of you get past the third floor, much less the fourth."

Mu Shun gritted his teeth in anger after hearing such words, yet he couldn't refute it. Nobody there could, so they all remained silent.

Meanwhile, Yuan was already fighting the guardian on the fifth floor with a new restriction, which completely sealed his movement techniques.

Although he could still move his legs just fine, he might as well be considered his legs to be useless since he was only able to move around with the increased weight by using his movement technique.

Now that he couldn't use any movement techniques at all, he would have trouble taking even a single step.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Despite the new restriction, Yuan still somehow manages to stay on his feet and repel the guardian's attacks with the God of War's Astral Arts.

It was as though Yuan had turned into a mountain with arms. Thanks to the God of War's Astral Arts, he was able to attack the guardian without moving around too much, and each of his strikes would send the guardian flying backwards.

However, the guardian was also relentless in its assault. Every time he gets sent flying, he would run at Yuan again without any pauses.

The two of them would continue this kind of clashing for many minutes until Yuan barely managed to overpower the guardian, defeating him in one strike.

"Will you choose a reward this time, or will you forfeit it again? You can choose between a massive amount of spiritual energy or three Ancient-grade treasures."

'Three Ancient-grade treasures…' Yuan sighed inwardly as he refused the rewards.

A few moments later, he was sent to the sixth floor.

"Congratulations, you are the first person to step foot on this floor." The masked man was now wearing a monkey's mask.

"The sixth floor is a little different compared to the other floors. You will now be given seven days to study this Sword Tablet."

A massive stone tablet shaped like a sword suddenly descended from the void, landing in front of Yuan.

However, there were no words on this Sword Tablet, just multiple deep cuts that seemed to have been left behind by a sword.

"All of your restrictions will be temporarily removed. They will return after seven days, and you will also receive your 6th restriction then. Good luck." The masked man disappeared afterward.
