Chapter 910
Burning in Desperate Circumstances
"break!"
The Eight Immortal Tower has 999 floors. It is said that the first master of the Eight Immortal Tower, the Eight Immortal Venerable, only reached the 990th floor and did not reach the top.
If one reaches the summit, one will surely gain complete control of the Eight Immortal Towers and obtain power even greater than that of the original Eight Immortal Venerables.
Without any further hesitation, Lin Xuan forcefully climbed towards the top of the Eight Immortal Towers.
The Soul-Binding Messenger below had already guessed what was going on, and naturally wouldn't let Lin Xuan have his way.
"Still want to put up a stubborn resistance? You're dreaming! Soul-Slaying Blade!"
A hint of hesitation flashed in the Soul-Binding Messenger's eyes, but he immediately became resolute and flung out a strangely shaped flying wheel from his body.
The flywheel was a dark red color and moved at an incredible speed, hurtling towards Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan was now on the 896th floor, and the flying knife was already within reach.
"puff!"
Lin Xuan understood the flying wheel's pattern, but his physical condition prevented him from perfectly dodging its attacks.
The flying wheel slashed Lin Xuan's right arm, and a section of his right arm was immediately missing!
"This thing can actually destroy my soul power!?"
Lin Xuan glanced at his arm, which was missing a piece, and felt a chill run down his spine. He dared not think any further and immediately began climbing towards the nine hundredth floor.
"I was originally planning to enjoy your soul, but now it seems that if I don't kill you, there will be endless trouble. So I'll just let your soul be completely destroyed!"
The Soul-Binding Messenger stared intently at Lin Xuan with cold, sharp eyes.
The Soul-Slaying Blade immediately attacked Lin Xuan again, while the Soul-Binding Envoy tried to climb up, but even with all his might, he only reached the 870th floor, still a very long distance from Lin Xuan. However, the Soul-Slaying Blade was able to track Lin Xuan, harassing him relentlessly.
"No, this scum from the Soul-Binding Hall doesn't seem like a genius who could reach the 800th floor, but now he's actually reached nearly the 900th floor. It seems that the restrictions on the Eight Immortal Towers have weakened a lot after being tormented by the Heaven-Sealing Myriad Demon Pearl. This is truly heaven's help!"
"puff!"
Lin Xuan jumped again, but the flying wheel was even faster and still managed to slash his shoulder, slicing off a third of his shoulder.
Damn it!
Lin Xuan felt a strange pleasure as his soul was tormented, but he continued to climb upwards without uttering a sound.
"Damn it, we absolutely can't let this guy escape! This tower is a real treasure; we have to take it!"
The Soul-Binding Messenger had only two objectives at this moment: first, to kill Lin Xuan, and second, to subdue the pagoda.
Nine hundred and fifty floors.
At this moment, Lin Xuan felt his soul swaying, like a candle flame being blown by a gentle breeze, which could easily be extinguished if he was not careful.
"Pfft!" The flying wheel sliced across Lin Xuan's left leg, and another piece of his soul was sliced off by the Soul-Slaying Flying Knife.
Lin Xuan endured the pain emanating from his soul. His body was covered in wounds and gaps, yet the Soul-Slaying Blade continued its relentless assault.
Looking back, the Soul-Binding Messenger had actually withstood nine hundred floors, displaying the demeanor of a Celestial Venerable?
Lin Xuan didn't believe this guy could have the appearance of a Celestial Venerable.
If someone like him can reach the 900th floor, then my claim of reaching the top is definitely not just empty talk.
"You still want to resist? We're going to kill you today!"
The Soul-Binding Messenger was furious to see Lin Xuan continuing to climb upwards.
"You're already dead, yet you still refuse to accept your fate!"
"Why! Why are you so stubborn? It's disgusting! Why can't you accept your fate of being refined?"
The Soul-Binding Envoy practically roared as he charged out, his Soul-Slaying Blade becoming even more ferocious. Lin Xuan reached the 989th floor, just ten floors away from the top.
Just as Lin Xuan stepped onto the 989th floor, the long-lurking Soul-Slaying Blade suddenly shot out and slashed at Lin Xuan's right arm.
"puff!"
"what!"
Lin Xuan had just regained his footing when he immediately rolled several times on the 990th floor.
Lin Xuan's right arm was severed by the flying wheel!
Damn it!
With his right arm severed, his entire soul experienced a kind of exhilarating pain that was a hundred times more intense than physical pain!
"Hehehe, you think you can escape? You're not getting away!"
Seeing that he had succeeded, the Soul-Binding Messenger couldn't help but let out a strange laugh and immediately wanted to press his advantage.
But unexpectedly, Lin Xuan suddenly unleashed an extremely astonishing power, forcibly stood up and leaped up three steps, which is the third step of the nine hundred steps!
"If you still want to go higher, I will kill you and awaken the soul of hell with my own!"
The Soul-Binding Messenger immediately began chanting incantations, and his physical strength surged dramatically in that instant, but the surge was extremely strange.
"How did I end up with someone like this this time? He's willing to burn his own soul power just to kill me!"
Lin Xuan felt somewhat helpless as he witnessed what the Soul-Binding Messenger was doing.
You could easily encounter such a bully anywhere in the desolate universe.
"puff!"
On the 997th floor, Lin Xuan suffered a severe injury, leaving his body riddled with holes.
Finally, nine hundred and ninety-eight floors! I'm just one step away from reaching the top!
After reaching the top, Lin Xuan was unsure whether he would gain the approval of the Eight Immortal Towers, but his chances of survival would definitely be much higher.
"Break it off!"
Two Soul-Slaying Blades shot toward Lin Xuan, one of which was conjured by the Soul-Binding Envoy using his own soul power.
"puff!"
Another spurt of blood.
Lin Xuan's left leg was severed from the thigh by the Soul-Slaying Blade!
Lin Xuan's body crashed straight onto the 998th floor. Without legs, trying to continue upwards was harder than climbing to heaven.
"I can't die here. It would be so shameful to die here. I still have so many people to see and so many things to do. I absolutely cannot die!"
Lin Xuan's eyes turned extremely crazed.
If we don't give it our all now, we're really going to die here.
"By my will, let me burn!"
Lin Xuan's soul actually began to burn.
The Soul-Binding Messenger was stunned by what he saw.
The Soul Collector considered himself somewhat insane, but his most insane act was burning the power of his soul.
Lin Xuan was even more insane than him, he ignited his entire soul!
Burning the power of the soul simply transforms the soul's power into source energy for combat, and under this condition, it is more than enough to last for several hours.
However, for someone like Lin Xuan who directly ignites his soul, his body would be burned to ashes in at most twenty breaths! (End of Chapter)
