It grows stronger when faced with a strong opponent; even an Immortal Emperor would have to kneel be

Pei Yuan listened to Luo Su's words with his mouth agape, feeling utterly bewildered.

He countered.

"What did you say, senior brother? You want me to apologize to them?"

"They're nothing but ants in the south, why should we apologize to them!"

The next moment, a slap landed on Pei Yuan's face.

Pei Yuan screamed in pain as Luo Su slapped him to the ground.

He covered his swollen cheek, looked at Luo Su, and looked aggrieved.

"Senior brother, why did you hit me?"

Luo Su looked at Pei Yuan with a cold gaze. He had already found out what had happened here when he first arrived.

It was this Pei Yuan who started trouble for no reason, targeting Xiao Rufeng and the other two.

Even if Xiao Rufeng had no connection with that white-robed expert, Luo Su would still severely punish Pei Yuan.

The Qiongtian Sect is a major righteous sect in Zhongzhou. Even if they come to Tiannan, they should not do such despicable things as oppressing others.

"Pei Yuan, I'm saying this for the last time: apologize immediately, or you'll be punished according to the sect rules!"

Luo Su spoke, his voice sharp and stern.

Pei Yuan panicked when he heard that Luo Su was going to punish him according to the clan rules.

According to the rules of the Qiongtian Sect, such punishment is no small matter; at best, it results in confinement, and at worst, expulsion from the sect.

Pei Yuan absolutely could not leave the Qiongtian Sect, so he hurriedly went to Xiao Rufeng and the other two and apologized repeatedly.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have caused you trouble!"

Xiao Rufeng and the other two were somewhat bewildered and didn't understand what was going on.

They were all ready to have a big fight with Pei Yuan when Luo Su rushed up from behind and blocked Pei Yuan without saying a word.

They also made Pei Yuan apologize to them.

What's going on?

At that moment, Luo Su looked at Xiao Rufeng and smiled.

"By the way, fellow Daoist, who is this person beside you?"

Luo Su pointed at Chen Ping and said.

Luo Su could tell at a glance that this was an avatar, and a low-ranking one at that, which would not be connected to the original body.

Xiao Rufeng looked at Luo Su, then at Chen Ping beside him, and suddenly realized what was going on.

"No wonder, it seems they recognize my master."

Xiao Rufeng looked at Chen Ping and smiled faintly.

"The person next to me is an avatar of my master. He was specially left behind to protect me."

Xiao Rufeng introduced, his face full of pride.

It is his good fortune to have a master like Chen Ping.

Luo Su nodded. Sure enough, it was that person's disciple.

He then laughed.

"Fellow Daoist, we have heard that there is a Trial Tower here, so we will not disturb you any longer and will take our leave first."

After Luo Su finished speaking, he led Pei Yuan and a group of Qiongtian Sect disciples toward the Trial Tower.

When Ding Batian and Bai Zitian heard Luo Su ask about Chen Ping, they also realized what was going on.

No wonder Luo Su stopped Pei Yuan; it turns out he knew Chen Ping.

That makes sense now.

"Brother Xiao, your master is truly amazing. Even the geniuses from these major powers in Zhongzhou have to treat your master with great respect."

Ding Batian patted Xiao Rufeng on the shoulder, looking on with envy.

Who wouldn't envy someone with such a powerful master?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Rufeng's lips curled up, and Chen Ping had nothing to say to him.

Since that's the case, he can't let Chen Ping down. He glanced at the trial tower beside him, his gaze resolute.

He was determined to reach the top of this trial tower and bring glory to his master!

"Let's go, let's challenge the tower too!"

After speaking, Xiao Rufeng walked towards the Trial Tower with high spirits.

Ding Batian and Bai Zitian followed closely behind.

At that moment, another group of people hurried over from a distance.

Yan Ruhua, along with Jiang Mo and the others, rushed over upon hearing about the trial tower.

"So this is the legendary Trial Tower that contains the inheritance of the Celestial Venerable."

Yan Ruhua looked at the Trial Tower and said.

From the moment Qin Tian reached the thirty-fourth level and obtained the Heavenly Venerable's inheritance, the news spread.

Almost instantly, the identity jade tokens of all cultivators in Zhongzhou simultaneously flashed with this information, shocking everyone.

Because they clearly understand what the lineage of a Celestial Venerable means.

Xiao Rufeng, Ding Batian, and Bai Zitian had already appeared on the first level of the Trial Tower.

There were also many cultivators from Zhongzhou standing nearby.

To their surprise, no matter how many people appeared in the Trial Tower, they all seemed to be some distance apart from each other.

The entire trial tower seemed to be protected by a spatial magic array, so no matter how many people entered, they would not interfere with each other.

As soon as Xiao Rufeng entered, a golden-armored puppet attacked him.

At the same time, a golden-armored puppet also rushed out in front of Bai Zitian, Ding Batian, and many other cultivators in the arena.

The group exchanged glances, seemingly understanding the mystery of this trial tower.

Without further hesitation, he drew his weapon and began fighting the golden-armored puppet before him.

There were many people inside the Trial Tower at the moment, and a large number of people had also gathered outside.

However, the outside world can clearly see everyone's every move inside the Trial Tower.

Before long, many people were defeated by the golden-armored puppet in front of them, and their challenge failed.

A phantom appeared, looked at them and shook its head. They couldn't even get past the first level; they were too mediocre.

With a wave of his hand, the phantom threw everyone out, leaving them empty-handed.

Many cultivators passed the first level but failed on the second. However, the phantom on that level looked at them, nodded, and left some rewards.

The group obtained some cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities.

Those who witnessed this scene realized that it seemed only by passing through the second level could one obtain the guaranteed reward.

After they came out, many people asked them what kind of cultivation technique they had obtained, but everyone remained silent.

The reward techniques given to them are determined based on their combat performance.

This is the mystery of each layer of illusory figures taking up their positions.

They will explore the challenger's limits, talents, and comprehension, and give them a reward that is specifically tailored to them.

These are all wonderful techniques and supernatural abilities that are suitable for their physical constitution and talents, and they will achieve twice the result with half the effort when cultivating them.

After hearing the explanation, everyone suddenly understood.

Many people, their eyes gleaming with excitement, rushed in as well.

But he was thrown out in no time.

Most of the people were thrown out before they even made it to the second level.

Everyone became completely obedient; it seemed that the first level wasn't so easy after all.

Xiao Rufeng, Bai Zitian, and Ding Batian have now reached the fifth level.

The three were far ahead, leaving all the cultivators from Central Continent far behind.

Many outsiders were amazed to see Xiao Rufeng and his two companions appear on the fifth floor.

They all recognized the three as cultivators from Tiannan.

But that's precisely why they were even more shocked that the cultivators from Tiannan could actually be ahead of them.

They had been inside before and knew the power of the golden-armored puppet; the puppet's realm would be adjusted to match theirs.

However, the puppet's strength is still extremely terrifying, and ordinary cultivators are no match for it.

But the fact that Xiao Rufeng and his two companions had actually made it to the fifth floor in one go was simply unbelievable.

After all, among the nine provinces, the Central Province is the most prosperous, with resources, population, and cultural heritage far surpassing the other eight provinces.

Furthermore, the Central Plains is guarded by a legendary Celestial Venerable expert.

Tiannan was the weakest of the Nine Provinces, lacking resources. Compared to Zhongzhou, Tiannan was a remote and impoverished place, and was never taken seriously.

However, Xiao Rufeng and his two companions had already left behind the other cultivators from Zhongzhou and arrived at the fifth level, far ahead of the others.

Many people were speechless with shock when they saw this scene.
