Chapter 252 – Soul
“Jindan?” Yu Yan made a weird expression at the odd name.
But regardless of what the little guy’s name was, Yu Yan decided that she would never tease it again.
Since the black flames of the fifth floor have been sucked dry, their only choice was to head towards the sixth floor. Although the flames from the fourth and sixth floors were rushing in to fill the space, it was still too thin.
“Sister Yu Yan, let’s head for the sixth floor,” Nie Li said as he glanced at Yu Yan.
Yu Yan nodded. Since Jindan depleted the black flames on the fifth floor, she couldn’t cultivate anymore and could only move to the sixth floor. However, the Demon Lord was also on the sixth floor. She hoped that a fight wouldn’t break out; if that were to happen, their chances of winning would be very low.
Nie Li walked towards the stairs that led to the sixth floor. He turned his head around and saw Jindan clumsily tottering its inflated body in an attempt to follow.
It seems that the little guy was somewhat dependent on him.
When he saw how clumsy Jindan was, Nie Li waved his right hand, gathered a trace of Law Energy, and lifted Jindan up, making the little guy float behind him.
Although Jindan was floating, it continued to swing its stubby little legs and looked as if it was taking a leisurely stroll through the air.
Nie Li couldn’t help laughing, “The little guy thinks it’s walking on its own.”
Together with Jindan and Yu Yan, Nie Li climbed the spiral staircase towards the sixth floor.
The sixth floor of the Black Infernal Tower
The moment Nie Li stepped onto the sixth floor, his surroundings suddenly turned into a boundless space. To think that the sixth floor of the Black Infernal Tower was actually a vast chamber like this.
“It looks like an illusion!” Yu Yan said as she furrowed her brows for a moment.
Within this vast space, there seemed to be countless powerful auras concealing themselves and countless pairs of eyes staring at them, causing their hair to stand on end.
“Hm. I can’t be bothered about them. My only goal is to comprehend the anatta mental state and pass the Nether Master’s test!” said Nie Li as he sat down, crossed his legs, and began cultivating.
Yu Yan stood guard at Nie Li’s side and prepared to engage in battle at any moment, should the need arise. Although the presence was vague, she could sense that something terrifying was hiding in this space. As for Jindan, it was snoring by Nie Li’s side.
