An emperor in his later years is summoned by his sister to save the nation's fate.

Lu Xueyao had finished resting in her territory and was in peak condition.

Finally, she slowly opened her eyes, dressed in a flowing white fairy dress with wide sleeves that seemed untouched by the mundane world. Her figure flickered, and she once again decisively stepped into the towering gate outside the territory—the Tower of Babel!

"Buzz!"

As the space shifted, Lu Xueyao reappeared on the vast and empty [Outpost Marble Plaza] of the Tower of Babel.

"Look! The number one is back!"

"That terrifying woman from the Dragon Kingdom has returned!"

The chosen ones from various countries, who had been resting and discussing things in the square, suddenly changed their expressions and retreated in terror.

Lu Xueyao simply walked away with a cold expression.

When her gaze fell upon the black stone tablet ranking list, which stood hundreds of feet tall and exuded a ghostly aura of death, in the center of the square.

Her eyes finally twitched slightly.

On the huge stone tablet, the [Sixth Level Trial Challenge], which had been locked due to insufficient participants, was now visible.

After that night.

The number of people who cleared the level behind them was surprisingly refreshed and reached 4/4 in the early morning!

The other three names, who had successfully cleared the first five levels of the Tower of Babel and were qualified to challenge the sixth level, were listed below her name in a dazzling, golden light:

[First Place: Dragon Kingdom - Lu Xueyao (Fifth Floor, Perfect Clearance)]

[Second Place: Dragon Kingdom - Xu Jingming (Fifth Floor, Perfect Clear)]

[Third Place: United States of America - Michael (Fifth Floor, Perfect Clear)]

[Fourth Place: Cherry Blossom Country - Chiba Genma (Fifth Floor, Perfect Clear)]

Just as Lu Xueyao saw the rankings on the list.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Three dazzling white teleportation beams suddenly flashed and descended in the center of the plaza.

The light dissipated.

Xu Jingming had a cold and stern face, and his body was faintly exuding the oppressive aura of a gluttonous beast.

Wearing enchanted armor and still looking somewhat weak, Michael of the United States was holding a pitch-black, monstrous umbrella.

And then there's Chiba Genma from the Cherry Blossom Kingdom, whose face is scarred and menacing, whose body is writhing in black water, and who controls the golden, eerie lake.

These three top chosen ones from their respective countries appeared together in the plaza amidst a spatial fluctuation.

"Xue Yao."

Upon seeing Lu Xueyao, Xu Jingming, as always, strode forward and respectfully nodded slightly in greeting.

Michael and Chiba Genma, on the other hand, huddled to the side, looking wary.

only.

The moment their three gazes fell upon Lu Xueyao.

"How...how is this possible?"

Even Michael, Chiba Genma, and the usually composed Xu Jingming all had their pupils shrink in that instant, their faces showing shock and disbelief!

Because, in their perception.

At this moment, Lu Xueyao.

The surging, eye-catching, terrifying supernatural or immortal cultivation power fluctuations that had previously emanated from him were gone.

in contrast.

She stood there calmly and aloofly, her aura completely concealed, like an ordinary mortal woman without any extraordinary power.

but.

The three present were all top-tier experts, some even wielding golden and S-class magical pets.

They could clearly sense the soul and life essence beneath Lu Xueyao's seemingly frail white dress.

It was so tall that all the strange creatures within their bodies, even the Taotie and the Strange Lake, began to tremble wildly with fear at that moment, wanting to kneel down and submit!

This is an overwhelming sense of oppression that belongs to a completely different dimension!

At this point, Lu Xueyao was no longer an ordinary demon tamer in their eyes.

That was practically a living immortal who had already ascended to heaven and was now walking among the mortal world!

"Just how terrifying has her strength become? Why do we feel our souls shattering just by looking at her?"

Chiba Genjin was digging his nails into his skin, his body covered in cold sweat. He had originally thought that he had been strengthened by the Ghost Lake and cleared the first five levels, and that he could compete with the Dragon Kingdom here.

But now, just a wisp of aura emanating from Lu Xueyao shattered all his pride and illusions.

Michael remained silent, gripping the strange umbrella tightly in his hand, his eyes filled with endless coldness and helplessness.

"Everyone, now that everyone has arrived..."

Lu Xueyao turned her head, her eyes, which shimmered with the light of the laws of life and death, sweeping over the somewhat dazed group.

Her red lips parted slightly, and her clear, cold voice rang out across the plaza, devoid of any superfluous emotion: "Then, let us open the trial portal to the sixth level."

"I don't have much time to waste here with you."

Before he could finish speaking...

Lu Xueyao's expression was cold as she strode towards the towering gate to the sixth floor of the Tower of Babel, which was hundreds of feet high and had been locked.

Watching her white figure slowly moving forward amidst the golden and gray light.

Xu Jingming took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart, and followed closely behind, speaking slowly and deliberately.

Michael and Chiba Genma, after exchanging a frustrated and desperate glance, ultimately dared not disobey in the slightest and could only follow along obediently like the most docile subordinates.

[Ding! Four players who have successfully completed the level have been detected!]

[The sixth level of the Tower of Babel—the Team Challenge Portal—is now officially open!]

With a loud bang, the gate opened.

Four figures, enveloped by a golden light that blotted out the sky, stepped into the world leading to the sixth level of the Tower of Babel!

On the sixth floor of the Tower of Babel, space was torn apart by a burst of intense white light, and slowly unfolded before the four people.

This is a terrifying world that seems to be made of endless hellish lava.

The ground was cracked inch by inch, with huge fissures several meters wide stretching across the earth. Below them, scalding red magma was boiling and roaring violently like boiling water.

The air was thick with the pungent smell of sulfur and filled with scorching volcanic ash, turning the entire sky a somber, dark red.

And directly above that scorching lava lake, in the crimson heatwave of the void.

"Hey——!"

A sharp phoenix cry, piercing through metal and stone and carrying the oppressive feeling of higher-dimensional rules, suddenly resounded throughout the entire void.

An ancient creature, the Phoenix, with wingspans reaching tens of feet and its body flowing with dazzling flames like a platinum sun, hovered silently in mid-air.

Those haughty phoenix eyes coldly looked down at the four people who had just arrived. The terrifying temperature emanating from his body caused the surrounding space to visibly distort violently due to the high temperature!

This phoenix's supernatural fluctuations not only surpassed those of ordinary A+ grade anomalies, but its very flesh and blood also faintly intertwined with the supreme fire laws of this trial space, radiating an overwhelming pressure akin to a near-S grade forbidden power.
