“I don’t care who you are, old fella. I advise you to hand over all your storage devices. If you do that, I’ll spare your lives. Get the hell out of the Towering Buddha Pagoda, or I’ll…” A jade-faced young man wearing a purple armor sneered. “Hehe, why are you so arrogant? You’re just a pile of dog shit in my eyes. I’m gonna to eat you for sure!”

Before his voice died away…

“Ha…” Ding Hao could not help bursting into laughter.

What exactly did the jade-faced young man mean?

His speech was so profound that it was simply amazing.

Evil Moon was stunned for a moment, then it also held its belly and guffawed. “Meow… It’s so funny… You’re gonna to eat us… Do you usually eat dog shit? Meow, hahaha, it’s really… a weird diet. I usually eat anything but shit… You win!”

The young man in purple armor was startled. The next moment, he realized his slip of the tongue. His face suddenly turned deep crimson like a pig’s liver, and he said angrily, “You… Alright then, attack! Kill these two fellas for being senseless, as well as that gray fat leopard cat. Chop them into minced meat!”

The other purple-armored warriors immediately charged like great stomping rhinoceroses.

In this tower, one could feel the pressure more than in the outside world. These purple-armored warriors were all high-level Martial Emperors, but the Qi in their bodies had been almost completely suppressed. They could only use their brute strength.

Despite this, they still advanced with heavy steps once their Qi erupted. Like a steamrolling mountain, their imposing manner was extremely shocking.

“Brat, how dare you attack us!” Uncle Tianshu jumped up and cursed. “You’re all dead meat.” Then he hid behind Ding Hao, shoved him forward, and said, “Guardian Bodyguard, fight them! Rob them of everything.”

Ding Hao was speechless.

He pulled out his giant sword, Tian Que.

Its sword body, more than 10 meters long, whooshed, sweeping across the sky.

The dozen or so experts in purple armor were knocked backward like straw struck by a hammer.

Ding Hao’s figure flashed, and in the next moment, he came to the jade-faced young man in purple armor, his sword slashing horizontally.

Bam!

The extremely arrogant young man was sent flying by his sword.

Ding Hao followed him like a shadow. The moment the jade-faced young man landed, the tip of the Tian Que Sword was already pointing at his throat. Ding Hao said coldly, “Hand over all your storage devices, or I’ll kill you.”

“You…” The young man was livid and spat out blood. He stared fiercely at Ding Hao and bellowed, “How dare you rob me? Do you know who I am?”

Damn, not another miserable announcement!

“Can’t you guys be a little more creative?”

These reckless sons of the rich and powerful.

Ding Hao pressed the Tian Que Sword against the young man’s throat and declared in a cold voice, “I’m not in the least interested. I’m just a Guardian Bodyguard. My master has given his orders, and I can’t disobey him. I advise you to hand over all your treasures like a good boy. If you do that, I’ll spare your life. If you ever want to take revenge, just look for this white-bearded old man.”

The Tian Que Sword was pressing on that young man’s throat, almost cutting it.

This enormous long sword was forged from the special bones of giant beasts, to complement his White Yin Gibbon’s power when he executed the Beast Transform. Although the sword had never been whetted, it still looked bloodcurdling and creepy.

Threatened by such a burly ferocious man, the purple-armored young man was scared out of his wits and did not dare resist.

In the end, he handed over all the storage devices on him, like an obedient boy.

More than a dozen purple-armored experts were all ruthlessly robbed by Uncle Tianshu.

“Eh? There’re some really good things here…” Uncle Tianshu adeptly broke the Seals of Divine Senses on these storage rings, and easily pulled out all the stored items one after another to check.

Magical weapons, Precious Weapons, divine materials, herbs, secret manuals, elixir prescriptions…

They did not know the origin of these purple-armored experts, but they must be either rich or nobles. They must have come from some powerful faction, or they would not have brought along so many treasures. There were several items which even tempted Ding Hao a little.

“Wow, haha, these things can just about remedy the pain I feel in my heart!” Uncle Tianshu shamelessly kept all the treasures in his storage bag.

Of course, the Demon King, Evil Moon, would not consent to this. It flashed its sharp, divine-weapon-like claws under its furry paws, and whistled.

As if hearing an order, the black puppy barked and dashed over to Tianshu, biting him on his ankle.

“Hey? What are you doing? Don’t bite me. Stop that at once! It hurts so much… A gentleman doesn’t use his hand to fight… bah, I mean his mouth. Let go of me… Let’s talk. Why don’t we share it equally?”

Uncle Tianshu was jumping up and down.

In the end, he had to compromise. With a pained expression, he divided all the treasures into three portions—one for himself, one for Evil Moon, and one for the black puppy.

“Haha, we’re leaving. Thank you for your treasures. And if you want to offload anything, look me up at once. You’re most welcome to rob us again. Hahaha!”

Uncle Tianshu burst into laughter before they left.

He was really mean.

The Demon King, Evil Moon, was so delighted that it bid goodbye to the purple-armored experts like Tianshu. Then, it led its subordinate, the black puppy, and the two babbling white tiger cubs, to climb the stairs to the next story.

As Ding Hao and the others disappear up the spiral staircase, the jade-faced young man’s eyes flashed with a strong sinister light, like a viper spitting out its forked tongue.

“Where did these two b*stards come from? How dare they rob me…” The young man full of fury and hatred. He pushed away the Martial Emperor experts who were hurrying to help him up and bellowed, “I, Zi Xiong, vow in the name of the Ziji Sect that I will never let them off. I will tear them into a thousand pieces!”

“Young Master, please don’t be angry.” An expert of the Ziji Sect came up to him. “Since the two of them have entered this celestial tower, they can’t escape anywhere. Once we reached the boundary formation on the 100th story of the First Buddha Realm, our sect experts will assemble. Once you give the order, Young Master, those two villains will be at your mercy, never mind their arrogance.”

Zi Xiong nodded, the gleam in his eyes becoming more vicious.

Uncle Tianshu’s good mood did not last long.

In the next half day, he had lost count of the number of stories they had to climb. Yet still they found nothing.

As they climbed higher and higher up the tower, its suppression power also became more and more intense. In the end, the Hell Ice Qi in the lower Dantian of Ding Hao’s abdomen was completely suppressed and could not be used at all.

Even an expert at the Martial Emperor Realm would be suppressed here, leaving him with a strength lower than the Primordial Realm.

“If I find out who had been plundering everything in this tower, I will beat the sh*t out of him!” Uncle Tianshu was exasperated, almost at the brink of insanity.

Nothing upset him more than to find the treasure mine he had just stepped into plundered, after braving so many dangers to get into this mythic treasure trove.

Uncle Tianshu’s eyes were now bloodshot.

Like a rabbit that had its carrot stolen.

Ding Hao, on the other hand, looked very calm.

From the very beginning, Ding Hao was not after any treasures. After his expedition to the Sage Battlefield, he had already collected enough divine treasures and precious herbs. Ding Hao went on this expedition primarily to see how powerful these masters of different sects were. He also wanted to get in touch with the experts from the Southern Wilderness, to help find his sister Ding Ke’er.

Hence, even if there was nothing left in the entire Towering Buddha Pagoda, Ding Hao would still not be particularly disappointed.

“No, we must move faster. If we don’t catch up with them, we won’t even get a broken bowl, let alone the three Divine Weapons…” Uncle Tianshu’s eyes were bloodshot, like a crazy gambler.

Another two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

“Dammit, there’s nothing here again? Can’t they leave me a broken bowl or something?”

“Nothing on this floor too? Unforgivable!”

“Dammit, nothing again!”

“I pray to Heaven that there’s something on the 89th floor… Dammit, nothing again!”

“The 93rd floor… There’s nothing here. Dammit, are those experts all f*cking mouse demons?”

“The 94th floor… Alas, there’s nothing here too!”

“The 95th floor… Nothing again… Eh? There’s something here? Good heavens, I’m not dreaming, am I?”

Uncle Tianshu had experienced a series of heartache, and was almost disheartened by the empty floors. He climbed up to the 95th story, glanced around instinctively, and thought there was nothing here again. To his surprise, he saw something!

Uncle Tianshu hopped excitedly on the spot.

These so-called “treasures” were not the divine treasures he was looking for. Instead, they were experts from nearly 100 different factions, each looking ferocious and hostile.

There was a tense atmosphere in the spacious 95th floor.

The air was filled with a strong stench of blood.

Blood was streaming on the ground, and it had not yet coagulated. There were dozens of sprawling corpses near the spiral staircase leading to the 96th story. They had all died a gruesome death, almost every one of them diced into pieces. Their weapons, storage devices, and other possessions had all been robbed.

The experts who confronted them were from both the Human and Demon Clans. Some were from the Central Region, while others were from the Southern Wilderness. They were divided into many dozen hostile camps.

After the initial excitement, Uncle Tianshu’s pupils suddenly contracted. He had sensed something strange here.

The next moment, Ding Hao and Evil Moon had also climbed the spiral staircase.

“Another few guys tired of living…” someone said.

Ding Hao’s eyes swept over these people, and he felt a deep hostility in some of them. The hostile stares all came from the Demon Clan. Since the celestial tower’s inner force was weighing down on them, many Demon Clan masters were forced to show their true forms. They came in all shapes and sizes—many of species unknown to Ding Hao.
