939: C939 Third layer

C939 Third layer

"Let's stay on the stairs for a while." Qi Tianyu waved his hand, signalling for everyone to stop.

"Alright," Yue Yunfeng and the rest were already exhausted, they were waiting for these words from Qi Tianyu.

Qi Tianyu laughed bitterly, as he observed his surroundings. There were countless beasts on the second floor, so the speed at which they killed them might not even be as fast as the beasts reproducing. Then, what would the third floor be like?

The staircase was spiral, and each of the slabs emitted an ancient aura. On the slate, there were bits of green moss, speckled with slabs of limestone.

The moss was alive and dead, and dead and alive. Countless corpses of moss had turned into mud, and it seemed as if they were slippery feet.

"The space is overlapping and the stairs to the third floor are actually downwards. If an inattentive cultivator were to come here, he would think that the stairs lead to the first floor." Qi Tianyu pondered for a moment.

"Are you all done yet? If there's nothing else, I'll go down and check it out first. " Qi Tianyu turned and said.

"Coming, coming." Zhu Liner and the others said repeatedly, the few of them were the most worried about Qi Tianyu taking action alone.

With them by their side, no matter how unpredictable something was, they could help.

Qi Tianyu nodded his head, the Golden Battle Sword in his hand scraped off the layers of the moss on the stone floor.

Originally, Qi Tianyu only wanted to remove the moss so that the ground wouldn't be too slippery. However, when Qi Tianyu used the Golden Battle Sword to remove the moss and soil, a dense string of words had already appeared on the stone floor.

"What are these?" Qi Tianyu's face congealed as he cautiously looked at the stone slab.

For a moment, everyone looked at the stone slabs. Each character appeared in a pale gold color, but no one could read them.

"The ancient script? "Martian Language?" Yue Yunfeng's face was full of suspicion as his finger continued to stroke his other hand. He wanted to write those words out, but he was unable to, no matter what.

"No, these aren't words. They seem to be the inheritance of some sort of formation." Qi Tianyu opened his Natal Rune and a purplish golden light enveloped the stone floor.

In an instant, the words on the stone board turned into lines of Spiritual Energy, gathering towards Qi Tianyu's Natal Rune. Some of the words turned into lines of minute runes, while some continuously fused, and became a part of Qi Tianyu's original runes.

Seeing that, Yue Yunfeng and the others stood up for Qi Tianyu.

The Golden Battle Sword turned into a Sword Qi and quickly cleaned up the slabs. Streams of golden words emitted light, and with a buzzing sound, they condensed into Qi Tianyu's Natal Rune.

Countless runes were revolving and fusing within Qi Tianyu's Natal Rune, looking even more strange.

Qi Tianyu cleared his mind and allowed the Spiritual Energy in his body to flow towards the Natal Rune. The Natal Rune did not have the Spiritual Energy's support and could not be activated at all.

Qi Tianyu took a deep breath, and a trace of fresh blood leaked out of the Natal Rune. The speed at which the Natal Rune progressed was simply too fast, and Qi Tianyu was slightly unable to endure it.

Fifteen minutes later, Qi Tianyu slowly opened his eyes. From within the Natal Rune, a wave of chaotic aura that flickered with golden particles scattered outwards.

"He transformed from purplish-gold to chaotic space?" Qi Tianyu's face revealed astonishment. He wanted to test the power of the Natal Rune after it had changed, but there was no array around him that could let him try it out.

"Boss, it seems as though these azure stairs will disappear very soon." Yun Zihang looked at the stone slabs whose color was becoming fainter and fainter, and was a little anxious.

Qi Tianyu nodded his head and quickly walked up. The stone tablet contained energy and it maintained the words, but now, the words had disappeared. Naturally, the stone tablet did not have energy.

Qi Tianyu jumped down the stone tablet and stood in front of the third floor's palace. The stone instantly turned into dust and disappeared into the air.

The 3rd level was like an isolated island, standing in space.

When Qi Tianyu had just opened the bronze door to the third floor, a thick smell of blood immediately assaulted his senses. It was as if he had just witnessed a sea of corpses.

A white bone in front of him was suddenly flung over. Qi Tianyu opened the only Divine Aperture and shattered the bone.

"Could it be that this level of palace is haunted? It's such a pity that Tian Qi didn't come. " Yue Yunfeng shook his head, a wave of roars came out from the palace.

"Vicious beasts!" Qi Tianyu's face congealed, his figure flashed into the palace, if they were all at the entrance, the beasts would pounce on them, and they would all be finished.1

The bluestone staircase had already disappeared. The third level of the palace seemed to be floating in the void, falling into the void because one needed sufficient luck to barely survive.

Once a person fell into the void, their body would be sliced into pieces by the sharp Law of Space in a short amount of time.

Therefore, Qi Tianyu and the others could only fly into the third floor. Although the third floor was gloomy, it was still better than falling into the void.

"Could it be that these bones were left behind by that beast?" Qi Tianyu's face congealed as he saw a vicious beast with its mouth wide open licking up a piece of flesh from a bone in the distance.

"The strong preys on the weak. It seems that all the beasts here before were carnivorous as well." Yue Yunfeng kicked the head at his feet. On the head, the fangs were also very long.

The third level of the palace was divided into two layers. The first level was for the reproducing of ferocious beasts, and there was an unknown Forbidden Power inside that was suppressing the savage nature of the beasts.

But when the berserk beasts reach a certain state, the first layer will expel them from the second layer. In the second layer, it is no longer a greenhouse, but a bloody and murderous world.

The violent nature that had been suppressed to this point suddenly erupted, and the berserk beasts that were guarding the first level of the palace became even more brutal.

"So it seems that the third floor is to nurture the existence of the killing machine. Now that we've entered, in the eyes of these vicious beasts, there is no doubt that they are nothing more than a piece of sweet flesh." Qi Tianyu laughed bitterly.

Qi Tianyu took out the Underground and dug into the ground. As a result, he discovered that there was no land here at all.

"Boss, it seems like the palace has not pointed us out to the berserk beasts. Will we be safer here?" Yue Yunfeng asked curiously.

"These vicious beasts grew up in the midst of slaughter and blood. Even if you blocked their own life force, they would still be able to find you. Do you still feel safe?" Qi Tianyu laughed helplessly, he had also tried to block his own life force, but to no avail.
