Chapter 038: Level 1 Elite
Outside the Trial Tower, Domain Lord Lin Tian was also watching Lu Qingshan's performance in the Trial Tower.
Seeing Lu Qingshan easily pass the sixth level of the Trial Tower, Lin Tian couldn't help but show a hint of satisfaction: "As expected, for any genius who has entered the Domain Realm, passing the first six levels of the Trial Tower is relatively easy!"
"Just to get past the seventh level of the Trial Tower, relying solely on one level of domain is already quite difficult; other aspects also need to be relatively unaffected!"
"This little guy is from a native planet, so his foundation isn't very solid. It'll probably be quite difficult for him to get past this level!"
For Domain Lord Lin Tian, he had already witnessed countless geniuses over the long years.
Even among so-called top-tier elites, he would only see five or six every ten thousand years.
Therefore, he was well aware that these so-called elites could not reach the pinnacle simply by possessing domains at the celestial level.
……
Inside the Trial Tower.
"Could the opponents on the seventh floor of the Trial Tower be a thousand ninth-tier planetary-level Azure Sky Demon Apes?"
After killing all the wolves on the sixth floor of the Trial Tower, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but think to himself.
As the saying goes, "many ants can kill an elephant." Although he was very strong, he would inevitably get injured when facing a thousand Azure Sky Demon Apes of the same level.
Once injured, his performance will be affected, and then a vicious cycle will naturally follow.
But there was no time for Lu Qingshan to think. With the spatial shift, he quickly arrived at the seventh floor of the Trial Tower.
The scene on the seventh floor of the Trial Tower is completely different from the previous six floors. It has changed from an endless grassland to a large city with countless skyscrapers.
And at this time...
"Lu Qingshan!"
That gentle voice echoed in his mind once more: "Please kill ten 'Azure Sky Demon Apes,' level one, Eternal Star-level monsters, within twenty minutes. If you fail to complete the task within the time limit or die midway, your Trial Tower attempt will be considered a failure!"
"A Celestial-level, Tier 1 Azure Sky Demon Ape?"
Upon hearing the notification, Lu Qingshan even breathed a sigh of relief.
In his eyes, although ten Celestial-level Tier 1 Azure Sky Demon Apes were stronger, they were not as troublesome as a thousand Planetary-level Tier 9 Azure Sky Demon Apes. With his strength, dealing with them would definitely not be too difficult.
Unfortunately, things were not as simple as he thought.
Whoosh!Whoosh!whoosh...
As soon as the system notification ended, ten Celestial-level Tier 1 Azure Sky Demon Apes appeared around Lu Qingshan and then rushed towards his location.
"Go to hell!"
In a flash, Lu Qingshan wielded the "Suppressing Mountain" sword and slammed it down on a Azure Sky Demon Ape.
According to his estimation, even if this attack fails to kill the Azure Sky Demon Ape, it will at least severely injure it, rendering it completely incapable of movement.
Unfortunately, despite being hit by Lu Qingshan's full-force attack, the Celestial Demon Ape, a first-level star-rank ape, only suffered minor injuries.
"this……"
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Qingshan was also quickly surprised, because the Azure Sky Demon Ape was much stronger than he had imagined!
He originally thought that this first-tier Celestial-level Azure Sky Demon Ape was only about ten times stronger than the ninth-tier Planetary-level Azure Sky Demon Apes on the fourth floor of the Trial Tower, but he did not expect that this first-tier Celestial-level Azure Sky Demon Ape was much stronger than the previous ninth-tier Planetary-level Azure Sky Demon Apes in terms of both physical strength and combat skills.
All things considered, this Celestial-level Rank 1 Azure Sky Demon Ape is more than 30 times stronger than the previous Planetary-level Rank 9 Azure Sky Demon Ape.
Because he underestimated the strength of the Azure Sky Demon Apes, Lu Qingshan was unable to quickly kill one of them to create an opening and was soon surrounded by ten Azure Sky Demon Apes.
"roar!"
The Azure Sky Demon Apes roared angrily and then attacked Lu Qingshan in a furious manner.
"We have no choice but to give it our all!"
Lu Qingshan held Zhenyue in his hand and stood calmly in place.
Having annihilated countless demonic beasts on Xuanhuang Star, he knew very well that when facing a beast horde far exceeding his own numbers, and with each beast posing a threat to him, the most important thing was to remain calm.
boom!
The first Azure Sky Demon Ape finally charged in front of Lu Qingshan, but Lu Qingshan merely shifted his body slightly to the side, skillfully dodging the Azure Sky Demon Ape's fatal blow. Then, he unleashed a burst of power, his body reaching twenty-eight times its normal strength, and swung the Zhenyue Long Staff in his hand, slamming it hard into the back of the Azure Sky Demon Ape's head.
boom!
With a muffled thud, the head of the Azure Sky Demon Ape exploded instantly.
But at the same time that the first Azure Sky Demon Ape was killed, two more Azure Sky Demon Apes rushed up to Lu Qingshan.
Boom! Boom!
The two Azure Sky Demon Apes threw punches almost simultaneously, striking Lu Qingshan's head from the left and right.
Faced with such a dangerous situation, Lu Qingshan had no time to dodge. In the end, he could only use his right hand to swing the Zhenyue staff in his hand to block the attack from the right. As for the attack from the left, he could only use his left fist to block it.
boom!boom!
The attack of Zhenyue Long Staff repelled the first Azure Sky Demon Ape, but the second Azure Sky Demon Ape's fist slammed into Lu Qingshan's left fist.
In that instant, the immense impact even made Lu Qingshan's left arm completely numb. If it weren't for the protection of his first-tier Origin Force combat power, this attack would have broken his arm.
"Damn it!"
Having narrowly escaped the attack, Lu Qingshan finally broke free from the encirclement of the Azure Sky Demon Apes: "We absolutely cannot fight them head-on anymore. It's better to take advantage of the environment here and defeat them one by one!"
With this thought in mind, Lu Qingshan immediately used his movement technique to hide in a tall building nearby.
Seeing this, the remaining nine-headed Azure Sky Demon Apes quickly followed Lu Qingshan and rushed in.
Fortunately, these Azure Sky Demon Apes were much larger than Lu Qingshan and slightly inferior in agility, so even though they were stronger in basic strength, they were simply unable to catch up with Lu Qingshan.
After putting some distance between himself and the Azure Sky Demon Apes, Lu Qingshan finally had the opportunity to take advantage of the environment to defeat them one by one.
Subsequently, one after another, the Azure Sky Demon Apes fell to Lu Qingshan's hands.
Eighteen minutes had passed since Lu Qingshan killed the last Azure Sky Demon Ape.
Clearly, killing these ten Celestial-level Tier 1 Azure Sky Demon Apes is far more difficult than killing one hundred Planetary-level Tier 9 Sky Wolves on the sixth floor of the Trial Tower.
Meanwhile, outside, after seeing Lu Qingshan pass the seventh level of the Trial Tower, Domain Lord Lin Tian quickly smiled.
"It seems this little guy has been through quite a few battles before!"
Domain Lord Lin Tian thought to himself, "Otherwise, with his abilities, it would have been very difficult for him to pass the seventh level of the Trial Tower on his first attempt!"
"It seems that Tianzhu Mountain will have another top-tier elite this time!"
It should be noted that even for a major power like Tianzhu Mountain, top-tier elites are extremely rare and hard to come by.
Therefore, the first-level elites are already considered to be among the top geniuses under Tianzhu Mountain.
After undergoing numerous trials and tribulations, most of them, except for those who perish in the process, will break through to the cosmic level and become the cornerstone of Tianzhu Mountain.
Even a very small number of elites were able to break through to the Domain Lord level and become the backbone of Tianzhu Mountain!
Inside the Trial Tower, after killing the last Azure Sky Demon Ape, Lu Qingshan was quickly teleported to the eighth floor of the Trial Tower.
The opponents on this level are ten first-tier, eternal star-level Ziqian Thousand Serpents, each of which is as powerful as the Mengqi Demon God that Lu Qingshan killed on Xuanhuang Star.
You should know that Lu Qingshan burned his soul to successfully kill the Mengqi Demon God;
Although his strength has improved a lot, it is still very difficult for him to deal with a single first-level star-level Ziqian Wanshe without burning his soul, let alone ten of them.
Therefore, after killing only one of the nine Ziqian Wanshe, Lu Qingshan was killed by the remaining nine Ziqian Wanshe.
After his death, Lu Qingshan was quickly kicked out of the Trial Tower.
Congratulations, little one!
Upon seeing Lu Qingshan, Domain Lord Lin Tian quickly smiled and said, "From today onwards, you are a Level One Elite of my Tianzhu Mountain, and you can enjoy many privileges and resources reserved for Level One Elites!"
"Thank you, Elder!" Lu Qingshan quickly bowed respectfully.
