The King Of Chaos

Chapter 18

Four hours after everyone left the park, Ye Xiao seized the opportunity when no one noticed him, he teleported and appeared right in front of the Black Gate.

Just like everyone else before, when Ye Xiao arrived in front of the Black Gate, he felt the peculiarity of this gate as well as the rise in temperature that directly affected his soul.

Ye Xiao ignored the sensation and began to carefully observe the Black Gate. Now that he was standing right in front of the Black Gate, he could feel an increase in the anxiety of the Fire Essence Universe. The Fire Essence of the Universe showed a great desire to devour the Black Gate.

No, it seemed like his desire for something was hidden in the Black Gate.

Ye Xiao immediately understood that there must be something very special and precious hidden in this door that caused his Fire Essence Universe to react in such a way and show a great desire to devour it.

“This gate is definitely a treasure, but what exactly is hidden in it?” Ye Xiao muttered as he continued to observe the black gate.

Time began to pass but Ye Xiao found nothing. However, as time passed, Ye Xiao could feel his soul temperature becoming increasingly hot. He understood that it would not be long before he would start to feel a burning sensation in his soul. He had to do something quickly, otherwise, his soul would definitely be harmed by the vagaries of this gate and suffer greatly.

Earlier, Ye Xiao clearly saw how this gate was opened. But he couldn't do that, because he wasn't here to open the gate in the first place. He was also not interested in exploring this tomb. He only wanted to solve the mystery of this Black Gate.

As time passed and Ye Xiao was unable to find any clues, he decided to exterminate the Black Gate from the wall and keep it for a while. When his realm would be opened, he would give a gate to the Fire Essence of the Universe to eat.

He thought, with his strength, he could at least pull the Black Gate from its fixed position.

Unfortunately, reality is not always what people expect.

Ye Xiao's intention to pull the Black Gate failed. No matter how hard he tried, he still failed.

“Why? Is my strength not enough?” Ye Xiao muttered in his heart but had no answer.

“If I can't pull you out, then I will devour you!”

As Ye Xiao spoke, he immediately used his ability to devour the gate, only to fail again. Due to his low strength, his devouring ability was too weak to devour the gate.

Ye Xiao was now troubled. He did not know what was inside the black gate, but he was sure it must be a treasure.

Treasure was right in front of him but he was too weak to obtain this treasure. What's he supposed to do?

“It looks like I need to increase my strength before I can do something on this gate.” Ye Xiao muttered and sighed. Then she disappeared again and reappeared in front of her mother, and asked: “Mother, please, do you have any treasures that can help me improve my cultivation and maybe even help me through the Three Cycles of Chaos Transformation?”

Ye Lihua was shocked when Ye Xiao suddenly appeared in front of her and asked for a treasure. But thinking about Ye Xiao's extraordinary abilities, a smile appeared on his face. Then he thought of something and replied: “We do have a lot of treasures, but all of these treasures are in the Ling Family. The treasure with me right now is a high-level treasure that cannot be used by you. There must be at least a Chaos Spirit Realm cultivation base to use this treasure.”

Ye Xiao was disappointed. But then he thought of his devouring ability. He was sure that he could definitely devour his treasures and energy to help his cultivation, but this was Chaos, he could not guarantee that anything bad would happen to him or not. Therefore, he chose not to take the risk.

After all, even in Heaven, there were some tombs and ruins that would collapse and disintegrate after their exploration was completed. It's very normal. This was probably the case with the Green Fire Emperor Tomb as well.

Therefore, Ye Xiao did not want to return to the Illusory Spirit Gate empty-handed.

Just as he was disappointed, Ye Lihua again spoke: “Although we were also able to find many such treasures in the Ye Family, without your Grandfather's permission, we were unable to take the treasure.”

Ye Xiao understood this very well. Ye Molong was the head of the Ye Family, and the Ye Family treasury could only be accessed by him. Without Ye Molong's permission, no one could use the Ye Family treasury except in an extremely critical and dire situation.

“But there is a place in the Ye Family where you might get a treasure that could at least help you pass the First Stage of the Three Cycles of Chaos Transformation.” Ye Lihua paused for a few seconds before speaking again. And then he observed Ye Xiao's suddenly bright expression.

Listening to what Ye Lihua said, Ye Xiao's eyes twinkled and he hurriedly asked: “Where? Where is that place and what treasure are you talking about?”

Laughing lightly when seeing Ye Xiao's impatient behavior, Ye Lihua spoke: “That place is called the Gold Tower. The Gold Tower was a treasure passed down by an unknown person to the Ye Family when the Ye Family helped that person by saving his life. There were a total of nine floors in this tower, each floor represented a single field of cultivation.A Foundation Building Cultivator could usually only ascend to the First Floor of the Gold Tower, and even if they passed the first floor trial, the, they could not pass the second floor trial. The second floor trial was difficult even for a Chaotic Transformation Third Cycle cultivator to pass.”

“If you can pass the First Floor trial, you will get a treasure called the Origin Spirit Grass. These treasures can easily help you increase your cultivation to the Ninth Realm Foundation Building. At the same time, it can also help you to go through the First Cycle of Chaos Transformation.”

“And if you can pass the Second Floor exam, you will receive a treasure called Skyheart Honey. This treasure can help you break through to the Chaos Dust Realm.”

Ye Xiao's eyes began to brighten the more he heard. This Gold Tower is truly a treasure. No matter what, Ye Xiao had to go to the Gold Tower and climb the floor. To pass the ordeal, Ye Xiao was not worried. He even had the confidence to pass the trial on the Second Floor.

After telling Ye Xiao about the Gold Tower, Ye Lihua meticulously observed Ye Xiao's expression. The more he looked at Ye Xiao, the more satisfied he felt.

This is his son.

He could feel the excitement in Ye Xiao's heart, and he also wanted to see Ye Xiao climb up the Gold Tower.

When he was still in the Ye Family, he also climbed the Gold Tower with his cultivation base in the Chaos Spirit Realm. In the end, between the nine floors of the tower, he could only ascend to the Fifth Floor. He failed the trial on the Fifth Floor and was teleported.

He wanted to see how far his son could go.

“Mother, can you take me to the Gold Tower?” Ye Xiao hurriedly asked excitedly.

“Of course you can!” Ye Lihua nodded and led Ye Xiao to a huge golden tower that seemed to touch the sky. This was clearly an illusion given to the people standing outside near the tower. In reality, this tower only had nine floors and was not too tall to touch the sky.

Bringing Ye Xiao to the Gold Tower, Ye Lihua spoke: “This is the Gold Tower. You can try and see how far you can climb this tower.”

“Let me tell you one more thing. One could only enter the Gold Tower twice in their lifetime. Only the tower lord could enter as many times as they wanted. If you choose to log in now, you will be left with just one more chance.”
