Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal

Looking again at the surface of the lake, in the sky ten thousand feet high, a towering and sacred divine hall looms between the clouds.

The Ancient Divine Hall has appeared!

Just then, the familiar mechanical voice came again.

[Celestial Court Announcement: Member Qian Lingxue's reputation has reached 10 points, gaining the blessings of the world and receiving a reward of five-dimensional attribute values!]

[Celestial Court Announcement: Member Qian Lingxue has upgraded her home to Level 2, receiving a free attribute reward!]

[Celestial Court Announcement: Member Qian Lingxue has upgraded her home to Level 3, receiving a free attribute reward!]

Wang Teng's eyes lit up.

This little girl, so fast!

It seems Qian Lingxue had already prepared her resources, just waiting for the Celestial Fire Crystal Stone and Beiming Crystal Stone.

Now that she got both items, she directly leveled up her home twice.

Wang Teng felt gratified.

Qian Lingxue is his personal assistant.

The stronger this girl is, the more help she will naturally be to him.

Just then, Qian Lingxue's joyful voice rang in his ears.

"Heehee~! Master, my home has leveled up twice, unlocking a lot of poses! Master, in your spare time, feel free to come and experience it~!"

Wang Teng casually replied: "Sure~!"

Finishing his words, he felt something was off.

At this moment, Qian Lingxue added, "Also~! Master, I just received consecutive rewards, my combat power has reached 3000 points, the range of the Angel Realm has been expanded to a radius of 200 meters, meaning my time force field range has also expanded."

Hearing these words, Wang Teng's eyes lit up, joy flickering in his gaze.

From this information, it was evident that the stronger Qian Lingxue's abilities became, the more her domain would grow as well.

If this development continues, would the time flow rate also increase from double speed to triple speed?

If so, that would be heaven-defying.

"Boom~ Rumble~ Rumble~!"

At that moment, a rumbling sound echoed from high above.

Wang Teng raised his head to see, the sky vibrating without cease, clouds shattered, revealing most of the temple body, spectacularly imposing.

"Splash~ Clatter~ Clatter~!"

Coinciding with Wang Teng's arrival, a heaven-reaching bronze chain, like a gigantic root, descended from the temple's base, landing on the lake surface nearest to Wang Teng, splashing waves many feet high.

A green light flickered on Wang Teng's body, no lake water touched him.

Ha ha~!

Is this the divine hall calling out to me?

Wang Teng no longer hesitated, his muscles burst forth, and with a boom, he leapt onto the bronze chain from the lakeside.

Immediately, he released the Wind God's Wings, stepping on the bronze chain, soaring upwards into the sky ten thousand feet high.

Not long after, he flew to the base of the temple at a sky-high altitude.

Only upon approaching the temple did he realize how immensely vast it was, spanning several hundred miles wide, with its top unseen, reaching straight into the Nine Heavens.

In front of the temple, he appeared as a mere speck of dust drifting before a massive sky-tower.

At this moment, all he saw was a temple wall with no visible top, and had yet to find the entrance to the Great Hall.

He continued flying upwards along the heaven-reaching bronze chain, searching for the entrance to the temple.

That heaven-reaching bronze chain itself was meant to guide people to climb up into the divine hall, so following the chain would surely prevent getting lost.

Unknowingly, Wang Teng entered a cloud.

Once he passed through the cloud, a strange howling voice sounded from above.

"Chirp~!"

Wang Teng couldn't help but look up, seeing a nine-foot tall birdman with a single horn on its head, double wings on its back, covered entirely in blue scales, coldly staring at him.

The birdman's eyes were vertical, expression cold and menacing, its demeanor fierce, its gaze unfriendly.

In Wang Teng's eyes, black ripples emerged...

[Character: Celestial Gate Guardian]

[Level: Level 30]

[Talent: True Meaning of Wind (C-level), True Meaning of Thunder (C-level)]

[Martial Techniques: ???]

[Comprehensive Combat Power: 10000]

[State: Brutal, Defending]

[Drop Rate: 100%]

Hmm?!

This birdman's drop rate is actually 100%, is there something peculiar about it?

Wang Teng was a bit surprised.

At the same time, the Celestial Gate Guardian's eyes showed a look of doubt.

This mere Level 17 human dared to trespass the Ancient Divine Hall?

Is he coming to meet his demise?

To enter the Ancient Divine Belt, one should have a minimum of 10000 combat power.

Generally, humans approximately reach Level 30 for their combat power to hit 10000 points.

If from a Small Thousand World, humans likely need to wait until Level 40 before reaching 10000 combat power.

This human from the Small Thousand World, only Level 17, dares to venture into the Ancient Divine Hall.

Does he think anyone qualifies to enter the Ancient Divine Hall?

As the defender of the first heavenly gate of the Ancient Divine Hall.

Only by defeating it will the temple challenger qualify to enter the First Heaven.

Failures will be knocked down from high heights, falling into the Heaven-Reaching Lake below.

Whether they live or die, they leave it to fate!

It knows no mercy or softness!

Is this human relying on his ability to fly to intrude?

Whether he stumbled in or not, if he dares enter its defensive range, it will show no courtesy.

"Chirp~!"

Another strange howl!

Spreading its wings, the birdman ferociously lunged at Wang Teng.

In an instant, strong winds howled, lightning and thunder flashed.

In the blink of an eye, the birdman closed in, massive talons enveloped in a purple thunder, intending to twist off Wang Teng's head.

"Courting death~!"

Wang Teng struck with a palm, in the wind of his palm, the Geng Metal Spirit, with the force of the wind, cleaved towards the birdman.
