Chapter 371 A Team Of Four
Lu Yu and Han Xuefei came to the second floor. It was dark here, but the energy contained in it was indeed much more abundant.
The two quickly walked to an array and sat down cross-legged.
“The energy here is dense, but the surroundings are too dark. It’s as if there’s no light at all.”
“Perhaps this is the unique feature of the stargazing tower. But it’s uncomfortable to be in such a closed and dark environment.”
Han Xuefei closed her eyes and started to cultivate.
Lu Yu also closed his eyes and experienced the cultivation speed four times faster than outside.
This was only the second level, and his cultivation speed had already increased by four times. This gave Lu Yu a feeling that if he continued up to the ninth level, his cultivation speed would be through the roof!
Lu Yu and Han Xuefei both closed their eyes and started cultivating. Their attributes started to increase bit by bit.
At the same time, Zhao Lei had already returned to his villa.
He no longer had any thoughts about cultivating. If he only relied on his cultivation, he would not be able to catch up to Lu Yu!
After all, Lu Yu was qualified to cultivate on the ninth floor of the stargazing tower!
How could he catch up to a cultivation speed that had increased nearly twentyfold?
Lu Yu’s one day of cultivation was equivalent to half a month of his cultivation. With such a difference, how could he cultivate in peace?
So, he returned to his bedroom, locked the door, and took out another bottle of truth serum.
He was gradually losing his mind. He didn’t care that his body hadn’t recovered yet and immediately drank the second dose.
After drinking it, he immediately felt a sharp spike of energy surge into his body, filling his limbs.
Immediately after, a wave of pain assaulted him, causing him to cry out. At the same time, he felt a stinging sensation all over his body, as if it were destroying him!
His whole body was covered in a cold sweat, and large beads of sweat fell from his forehead, soaking his clothes.
He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, and blood oozed out.
It was almost as if he had walked through the gates of hell; he slowly absorbed the truth serum’s destructive power.
He lay on the ground, panting heavily. At the same time, he felt a powerful force ravaging his body, causing him to force out a horrifying smile.
“Haha, I’m going to win. This time, I’m going to win!”
He laughed madly.
…
In the dean’s office of the upper house.
Jiang Lengyue sat behind her office desk, looking at the four people sitting before her.
The four were dressed in traditional-style clothing. Each of them was an instructor, and their strength was extraordinary.
“The four of you need to carry out a mission. You need to eliminate the members of the Truth Department in the upper house.”
One of the four who sat in the middle was a muscular man in a white uniform. He patted his chest and guaranteed, “Don’t worry, leave it to me, Baihu. Our team will definitely be able to take down the enemies!”
Sitting beside him was a thin man in a dark green robe. “I, Qinglong, will complete the task you have given me.”
On the far left was a burly man whose physique was comparable to that of two Qinglongs.
“I, Xuanwu, will complete the mission. We four represent the top of the upper house. So don’t worry and leave it to us!”
The one sitting on the far right was a tall woman in a red cheongsam.
“No one can survive my flames. The four of us will complete this mission.”
The four were known as the Four Divine Beasts and represented the upper house’s mid-to-high-level combatants.
The instructors in the upper house would usually go on missions instead of training the students.
After all, the instructors of the upper house were the strongest in the country; they couldn’t just sit around and do nothing.
Some instructors often went out to complete missions and spent more time there than they did in the upper house.
“The four of you are familiar with each other, so I believe that you can complete the mission. But you must be careful; the enemy is not to be trifled with.”
“Don’t worry, Dean. Consider it done!”
Baihu patted its chest and promised.
Jiang Lengyue nodded her head slightly. She knew that the mission should be completed smoothly if nothing unexpected happened.
After all, these four weren’t weak. They were all in the middle and late stages of platinum rank. Moreover, they were used to cooperating with each other, so there should not be any accidents.
“Alright, you can start now.”
The four stood up and left the office.
“It’s time again for us to perform well in front of the Dean. When we get the reward, we can improve our strength again! ”
Baihu led the way, and the three followed closely behind. He was the captain of this team.
Among the four, Baihu was a warrior, Xuanwu was a tank, Qinglong was an assassin, and Zhuque was a mage and a healer.
This was a perfect team. Basically, they could take anyone down as long as they didn’t encounter an enemy with a vast difference in strength.
…
In the stargazing tower, Lu Yu and Han Xuefei went to the fourth floor to experience the cultivation speed there.
Lu Yu was taking it one level at a time. He strongly felt that his cultivation speed was increasing in quality with each level he advanced.
This made Lu Yu even more excited to see what the effects of the ninth level would be!
Moreover, Lu Yu realized that the higher the floor, the darker the surroundings would be. On the fourth floor, he could barely see the surroundings with his eyes, which would be even darker as he went further up.
At that moment, Lu Yu and Han Xuefei reached the fifth floor.
It was almost entirely dark here. If one were to sit here and cultivate, it would be like being in a dark, endless space.
In such an environment, the cultivator could maintain total concentration and open up his heart to absorb the surrounding energy.
When they reached the fifth floor, Han Xuefei looked at the dark environment and couldn’t help but swallow.
The most important thing was that there was no one cultivating here. If she were to cultivate here, she would most likely be alone.
She knew that this feeling of extreme loneliness wasn’t good.
“Let’s experience it and see what the effects of the fifth level are.”
The two sat on the ground and began to cultivate.
The surroundings were filled with powerful energy, which they greedily absorbed, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t absorb it all. It was as if the energies here were limitless and could never dry up.
“Han Xuefei, you don’t seem to have the authority to go any higher, do you? ”
Han Xuefei opened her eyes and shrugged helplessly. “I can’t help it. My grades are much worse than yours, and I got second place.”
“Cultivate well. Sooner or later, you’ll also gain access to the ninth floor.”
Han Xuefei nodded slightly. “Yes, I’ll work hard. I’ll make you my goal and speed up my progress!”
