Cai'er's ability to take action will never disappoint anyone.
Despite the instruction given by Xingyuan, no matter who it was, they would think he was crazy and wanted to take Cai'er to die with him. However, Cai'er did not hesitate at all. She flashed and rushed forward with him.
The soul fires in the eyes of those skeleton warriors guarding the entrance of the Tower of Aion flickered with uncertainty.
Looking at Cai'er and Xingyuan who were rushing towards them, and then looking up at the sacred flaming meteor that was about to fall from above, he was a little at a loss for a moment.
"Boom——"
What happened next was exactly as Xingyuan had imagined.
Although his magic of the combination of the three elements of earth, light and fire, the Holy Flame Meteor has reached the category of sixth-order advanced attack magic, but for the Tower of Eternity, which has already achieved the status of a great artifact, even if it hits it directly like this, it is still not painful.
However, as a great artifact, it also needs to maintain its reputation.
Therefore, Xingyuan's Holy Sun Meteor was destined to not be able to hit these skeleton warriors directly. When it was less than five meters away from them, the Tower of Eternity released a barrier with countless hideous and illusory faces on its surface. It was like a net bag, catching Xingyuan's attack and preventing it from falling any further.
However, Xingyuan's magic is a combination of three elements. If it can be stopped so easily, why doesn't he just summon a meteorite?
Therefore, the spiritual net released by the Tower of Eternity, which was woven by countless resentful souls, only blocked the meteorite itself.
As for the sacred light elemental attributes it contained, and its ability to purify fire that could burn away all evil, it was pervasive and seeped right in.
"call--"
A heat wave formed by light and fire swept down. These skeleton soldiers, whose strength was comparable to that of fifth-order human warriors, had not even reacted before the soul fire that had been constantly beating in their eye sockets was extinguished in an instant, and their entire skeletons turned into ashes.
"boom--"
The door of the Tower of Eternity slammed shut. Fortunately, Xingyuan and Caier had successfully entered it. Both of them were unharmed. The whole process can only be described as a safe and secure one.
"It's okay."
Xingyuan took Cai'er's hand and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after confirming that she didn't have any external injuries.
Because his Holy Flame Meteor, with its righteous energy of the holy light element that can penetrate any hole, not only penetrated the shield of resentful souls woven by the Tower of Eternity, but also penetrated the magic shield he released on himself and Cai'er.
Fortunately, the aftermath that finally penetrated was not very powerful, and the two of them also had Xingyuan, an earth spirit robe that was comparable to brilliant-level protective equipment, to resist elemental erosion.
Of course, after all this trouble.
Xingyuan's earth spirit robe was also badly damaged. Not to mention that it was completely scrapped, but at least its combat capability was reduced by more than half.
However, Xingyuan didn't feel too bad about it. After all, when this mission was over, their entire team's equipment would have to be updated and everyone would be using brilliant-level equipment.
Cai'er nodded, then reached out to help Xingyuan cut off a few strands of hair that had become burnt and brittle.
"It's not over yet."
Xingyuan reached out and touched Caier's face. "Yeah."
The Sword of Samsara appeared again in Cai'er's palm, and Xingyuan also tightly grasped the earth dragon head staff in his hand.
Although due to time constraints last time, Xingyuan received three new earth dragon scales from Lin Chen and had no time to find the skilled craftsmen of the Equipment Forgers Association stationed in the Holy City to help him upgrade and strengthen his equipment, the Earth Dragon Head Staff at this stage is enough to deal with his current battles.
The first floor of the Tower of Aion is an extremely spacious hall with simple decoration.
However, in the center of the hall, there was a booth more than one person tall, on which floated a string of orange-gold bone pendants.
Eternal melody.
Xingyuan recognized what this thing was at a glance.
If Cai'er wants to successfully inherit the legacy of Alex, she must obtain the necklace, the key to freely enter and exit the Eternal Sleep and the Tower of Eternity, as well as the right to use it.
Although it was unclear how Alex would react when he found out that two people had entered his inheritance place at once, the most important thing for Xingyuan and Caier at the moment was to resolve the current crisis first.
Six tall skeletons with cultivation levels comparable to the two men walked out from the darkness of the hall, obviously not intending to let them pass so easily.
Three warriors and three mages.
From the state of the soul fire leaping in the eye sockets of these six skeletons, it can be seen that neither their strength nor their intelligence are comparable to those skeleton warriors outside who were easily killed by Xingyuan in one move. They are among the best among the fifth-order undead creatures.
It’s a pity that this time they are facing Xingyuan and Caier, who have already achieved cross-level combat ability and have reached the peak of the fifth level. They can try to break through the bottleneck of the sixth level at any time.
Since the two were not in a hurry to rush into the Tower of Aion as before, they had plenty of time to deal with these undead creatures.
It just so happens that Xingyuan, an earth-type magician, does not need other front-row protection like other magicians.
Because he himself is the 'Guardian Knight' among magicians, he is relatively less afraid of being approached, so he can let Cai'er give full play to her abilities without having to divide her attention to take care of him.
So, when the three skeleton warriors had no way to deal with Xingyuan and were being led by him, Cai'er had already exchanged positions with them and appeared in front of those skeleton mages, like a wolf among a flock of sheep.
In just a few breaths, she killed them all, and the soul fire that was beating in her eyes was extinguished.
After dealing with these skeleton mages, Cai'er turned around to help Xingyuan deal with the remaining three skeleton warriors. She knew very well that Xingyuan's spiritual power had been consumed too much after releasing the difficult magic that instantly killed a team of skeleton warriors.
……
After the two of them quickly dealt with the remaining skeleton warriors, they looked at the booth in the center of the hall with vigilance.
Although Xingyuan originally thought that the trip would not be too dangerous, Cai'er should be able to smoothly inherit the legacy of Alex.
However, since the current situation was gradually out of Xingyuan's control, he couldn't make any rash judgment. (End of this chapter)
