Chapter 3: The Tower of Heaven (Part 2)

  Lin Tianyang thought that the three layers of Tongtian Tower were probably where the spiritual grass used to refine the foundation-building pill was produced, so he immediately took out fifty spiritual stones.

  The Tongtian Daoist's eyes gleamed with greed, and with a flick of his hand, the Ling Stone that Lin Tianyang had taken out disappeared. His little finger, which had been pressed against his nose, suddenly popped off and pointed at the gate, and with a burst of energy, the gates of the Tongtian Tower swung open.

  Lin Tianyang walked into the entrance, suppressing the churning feeling in his stomach. Inside, it was exactly the same as in the game, except for a huge teleportation array and crystal walls; there was nothing else.

  Inside the Tongtian Tower, you cannot use anything other than magic tools and treasures. Otherwise, you will be directly transmitted out of the Tongtian Tower! Moreover, within three months, you are not allowed to enter. If you die inside, you will also be transmitted out, although you won't truly die, but it will still damage your primordial spirit. And afterwards, for another three months, you will also be unable to enter!

  As he walked onto the transmission array, the voice of the Tongtian cultivator sounded in his ear. As soon as the voice fell, the transmission array immediately burst forth with a white light, and Lin Tianyang only felt himself becoming dizzy for a moment.

  After the dizzy feeling disappeared, Lin Tianyang found himself standing in a forest.

  Lin Tianyang glanced around and suddenly found that near where he was standing, there was a kind of white small grass, with five leaves on one stem, the whole body snow-white. Wasn't this Cold Smoke Grass?

  Lin Tianyang didn't even think about it and picked down this spiritual grass.

  If I'm not mistaken, the third floor of Tongtian Tower's copy task is to collect three spiritual herbs that can be refined into Zhugidan: Yumuizhi, Zihouhua and Tianlingguo. Lintianyang also repeatedly fought six times before finally completing the collection. However, in the game, as long as you walk into a fixed cave and defeat the BOSS inside, you can randomly obtain one of the spiritual medicines. But now Tongtian Tower is not like the one in the game, just this forest alone stretches out endlessly, and I don't know if those three spiritual herbs exist here.

  With a wave of the storage bag, out came the fire qilin sword, Lin Tianyang's most skilled instrument. Watching the fire qilin sword dance in the air, he felt the wonderful sensation of manipulating this flying sword with ease. At this moment, Lin Tianyang had a very strange feeling, and he suddenly thought of Zhou Zhuang Mengdie's story. He didn't know if he had taken over the memories of the previous Lin Tianyang or if his own existence was just a dream of that Lin Tianyang.

  Lin Tianyang fell into deep thought, but just then he suddenly felt a dangerous aura approaching him. He saw not far away, a giant wolf with two heads as big as a small horse was swaying its two heads staring at him.

  "Ice Fire Wolf!" Lin Tianyang immediately shouted when he saw the demon beast. This was a top-tier, first-class demon beast that had appeared as a three-layer BOSS in the game he used to play. How could it be here?

  Lin Tianyang could only lament his bad luck, but at this moment the Ice Fire Wolf had accelerated towards him, and when it was more than a dozen feet away, it opened its mouth and spat out several fireballs from one wolf's mouth, while spewing out several ice needles from another wolf's mouth.

  Lin Tianyang hastily patted his storage bag, and a small silver shield flew out. Under Lin Tianyang's spiritual power, it instantly expanded to several zhang in size, blocking everything in front of him. The fireballs and ice shards were all blocked one by one.

  Seeing his Silver Sand Shield take effect, Lin Tianyang immediately pointed at Huo Lin Sword with one finger. The sword body of Huo Lin Sword instantly ignited a fierce flame. After Lin Tianyang drew a stroke towards the Ice Fire Wolf, the flying sword directly stabbed into one of the wolf's heads.

  Just as the Huo Lin sword was about to pierce into the wolf's head, the ice and fire wolf suddenly jumped high up, one of its front paws slapped against the Huo Lin sword and sent it flying.

  Upon witnessing this scene, Lin Tianyang's heart was greatly shocked. This Ice Fire Wolf was indeed a top-tier demonic beast equivalent to a 12th layer Qi Refining cultivator. With his own 9th layer cultivation, killing it would be too strenuous. If only he could utilize his talismans, he had three of them stored in his spatial pouch.

  Since he couldn't win in the first place, Lin Tianyang naturally wouldn't continue fighting stupidly. He directly recalled Huo Lin Sword and threw out a flying artifact, flying away from mid-air, leaving the Ice Fire Wolf that couldn't fly on the ground staring blankly.

  Lin Tianyang, although he was in the air, didn't dare to fly too high. Who knew what other monsters were lurking in the sky? As soon as he saw that he had enough distance from the Ice Fire Wolf, he immediately descended to the ground. But as soon as he landed, he found two Iron Arm Apes fighting over a spiritual herb right in front of him.

  Lin Tianyang took a look, they were fighting for a three-yang ginseng, this three-yang ginseng was one of the main medicines in the cold yang pill that was very effective for cultivators in the tenth layer or above of the refining qi period. He didn't expect to encounter it himself, so he didn't care how they fought and immediately took out the Huo Lin sword.

  This Iron Arm Ape was only a first-class lower-tier demon beast, apart from its iron palms being able to withstand gunshots, it didn't have any other skills. Lin Tianyang's Fire Qilin Sword, on the other hand, was an upper-tier magical artifact, and how could an Iron Arm Ape like this possibly withstand it? With just a light slash, both heads of the Iron Arm Ape let out their last breaths.

  Lin Tianyang looked at the Iron Arm Ape falling to the ground, originally intending to go up and take away the more valuable claws on its body. However, he didn't expect that as soon as he walked in front of one of the Iron Arm Apes, both of them suddenly transformed into a ball of white light and then disappeared before Lin Tianyang's eyes. On the ground where the two balls of white light had disappeared, there was actually an extra elixir pill and a yellow earth spirit stone.

  Lin Tianyang stared blankly at this extremely bizarre scene, feeling that he himself was shocked. Lin Tianyang picked up the elixir and put it under his nose to take a sniff, and couldn't help but laugh because he discovered that this elixir was actually an Gathering Qi Pill for cultivators below the fifth layer of the Refining Qi stage.

  Killed two iron-armed apes, and actually dropped a dan medicine and a piece of spiritual stone. It's just like playing games and killing monsters to drop items here! This Tower of Heaven is really too scammy!

  Lin Tianyang felt speechless for a moment, but still put the Gathering Spirit Pill and Ling Stone into his storage bag. Although he couldn't use the Gathering Spirit Pill himself, it was still worth one or two Ling Stones when sold.

  After picking the San Yang Shen, Lin Tianyang continued to move forward, feeling his way. If he encountered a powerful demon beast that he felt he couldn't handle, Lin Tianyang would detour around it. But if he encountered one that was weaker than him, Lin Tianyang wouldn't let it go. In this way, Lin Tianyang killed many low-to-mid-level first-grade demon beasts along the way and obtained many low-grade elixirs, talismans, spirit ores, spirit stones, and other miscellaneous items.

  In addition, Lin Tianyang also beheaded a higher-level demonic beast, the Scorched Horned Deer. After killing the deer, he surprisingly dropped a low-grade Higher Level Fire Snake Symbol and a small jade bottle. When Lin Tianyang opened the bottle, he found that it contained twelve Clear Spirit Pills, which were extremely useful to him, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

  With such a harvest, Lin Tianyang began to no longer avoid those more powerful demon beasts. Just after killing a Push Mountain Beast and obtaining an entire bottle of Qi Gathering Pills, he soon discovered a three-eyed fire wolf appearing nearby. Moreover, this three-eyed fire wolf was guarding several stalks of spiritual grass, which happened to be the Purple Ape Flower, one of the three spiritual grasses used to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.
