Chapter 912: 779, The Tenth Floor's Props and Monsters_1
"No."
"Call me sister."
"Sister Poseissi."
Poseissi nodded in satisfaction, "Since you call me sister, if your grandpa harasses me again, that would be disrespectful to his age."
"Ah?"
Qian Renxue looked at Poseissi turning away confidently, was momentarily silent, thinking that this was quite a clever idea, no wonder they used to hang out together back in the day.
"Stop fighting, stand properly."
Poseissi shouted at the two in front and they quickly returned to the team, standing upright as if competing for Poseissi's praise based on who could stand straighter.
But Poseissi just said inaudibly, "Why not really strangle each other to death, at least if one died, I could have one ear in peace."
Thousand Waves and Tang Chen exchanged an awkward glance, not daring to speak.
At that moment, the tools for the tenth layer appeared in their hands.
However, as soon as they received the tools for this layer, all five of them showed a shocked and astonished expression.
"What? These tools are only for use in this level's challenge?!"
Thousand Waves exclaimed, then looked at his teammates, only to realize they were also surprised.
"Did you all get this prompt too? Doesn't this mean that once we leave this level, the tools we've gotten will automatically be taken back?"
Tang Chen nodded, then looked at Thousand Waves with disdain, "Following you really is the misfortune of my past eight lifetimes. I'd rather just participate in the first level's challenge, at least I could get a permanent tool."
After saying that, Tang Chen glanced at Poseissi and immediately pretended to be even more angry,
"Actually, I don't care what happens to me, it's all about taking part, right? Xi Xi came all this way, and she's always one of the last in line to attack. Just when she could get an extra reward, you insisted on dragging her to the tenth level, and now Xi Xi doesn't even have the chance to get a tool."
Thousand Waves' eyes widened. Tang Chen normally wouldn't talk much; how come his ability to sow discord was so smooth now?
He looked at Poseissi and realized that Poseissi really did give him a cold look. Thousand Waves was about to step forward to explain, but Poseissi stepped on his foot hard, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.
Alright, Poseissi was angry now.
Dragon Lance Douluo watched the big shots talking and didn't dare say a word at this moment.
It was then Qian Renxue who smoothed things over, stepping forward to say, "Since this is the tenth floor, we must be facing the strongest monster yet, so the tool we get is probably extremely powerful."
"After all, it's just a Red Level reward. Such a powerful tool appearing in this type of reward probably wouldn't be given to us permanently, just like the Immortal Experience Card on the ninth layer only had two uses, right?"
Thousand Waves clapped his hands immediately, "Xue'er is right! This is unavoidable! Participating in the tenth level is about gaining experience and the feeling of battling with higher Plane characters. Besides, taking part in the tenth level is also about the prestige we carry, isn't it?"
Poseissi stealthily pursed her lips. No matter how eloquently Thousand Waves talked, she only cared about whether she could get good things.
However, since everyone had said as much, they could only participate once, considering it an experience.
Tang Chen: "What did you all get?"
Dragon Lance Douluo spoke up, "Maitreya Buddha's Golden Cymbals, that's the name of the tool."
Tang Chen nodded, also introducing his own tool, "I got Taishang Laojun's Diamond Cutter."
Thousand Waves: "Mine is the Purple Gold Bell of the Golden-Haired Roar."
Qian Renxue: "Mine is the Floating Gold Rope of Taishang Laojun."
Poseissi: "Mine is the Jade Pipa of the Scorpion Demon."
Strangely enough, Poseissi didn't know how to play the pipa, but after receiving this reward, he somehow knew how to play it.
What's unknown is whether the method implanted in their minds would be taken back when the item is revoked.
At this moment, the five of them had no idea about the importance of the artifacts they had obtained, but Lin Yi outside could make out the significance.
It seemed that the monsters on the tenth floor also came from the Journey to the West Plane! After all, these artifacts are from Journey to the West, which is one of the representative planes in the Fifth Level Plane. Characters in this plane are powerful, and magical artifacts are exceptionally meaningful.
Not to exaggerate, but an ordinary person from a Fifth-Level Plane could blow a breath, and the strong from the First-Level Plane might be disintegrated instantly.
Not to mention the bigwigs from the Fifth-Level Plane.
Dragon Lance Douluo finally acted like a leader, hesitatingly saying:
"Everyone, we should go up now, but before we go, I hope to remind you all. Facing beings from a high Plane Level, we must not get too close to them with our physical bodies. Like on the ninth floor, nearly none of us got close, yet we were almost killed by the presence of the new ruler."
Thousand Waves nodded: "Yeah, but on the ninth floor other characters fought in our stead. On the tenth floor, don't we still have to use the artifacts ourselves? The artifacts can't exactly fight on their own, can they?"
Poseissi: "If these artifacts can be used for remote control and attacks, there's nothing to worry about. We don't need to get close with our bodies. My Jade Pipa, for instance, works at long range, as long as the opponent can hear the sound."
Thousand Waves: "Mine too. Xi Xi, we really do have a connection, huh."
"All of ours are—"
Suddenly, the other three looked at Thousand Waves with a strange expression and spoke in unison.
Thousand Waves: "..."
"It seems the tenth floor still gives us a chance to overcome the opposition."
While recalling the usage of the magical artifacts they had mastered, the five of them stepped on the staircase and proceeded toward the tenth floor, which was also the ninth floor of the Monster Brushing Tower.
Little did they know, as soon as they reached the eighth floor, they felt an indescribable sense of oppression.
Dragon Lance Douluo said in a deep voice: "It seems the monsters on the previous floors haven't died. The monster for the next floor won't appear until they do; otherwise, this oppressive aura should have appeared much sooner."
Finally, the five of them, with great difficulty, reached the tenth floor. And standing before them was a creature that indeed looked like a monster...
This creature was incredibly large, standing at least five meters tall, with terrifying bird claws for feet and a head covered with pitch-black feathers; it had the head of an eagle.
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly: "Golden Winged Great Peng."
At this time, everyone heard the name Lin Yi had uttered. Although they had never heard of it before, seeing Lin Yi's grave expression allowed them to roughly gauge how formidable this monster was.
In that moment, the Golden Winged Great Peng started walking towards them. Dragon Lance Douluo, almost reflexively, exclaimed: "Oh no!"
A Golden Cymbal flew forward, instantly pressing the Golden Winged Great Peng to the ground.
After doing this, Dragon Lance Douluo collapsed on the ground gasping for air, already drenched in sweat.
