Chapter 5457 of the Dragon Emperor’s Order: Entering the Tower to Train
Ling Xi shook her head. “I’m fine. I just need some rest.”
“But now the Divine Capital has been occupied by the Soul Eater. It’s too dangerous for us to stay here,”
Ling Yue said worriedly. “The Soul Eater will soon send people after us.”
Everyone’s faces grew grave after hearing this. They knew Ling Yue was right. Given the Soul Eater’s character, he would never let them go.
“I have a suggestion,”
Ling Xi said suddenly. “I can take everyone to the Eighth Heaven. That’s the territory of the Divine King Palace. Even if the Soul Eater is that powerful, he wouldn’t dare act rashly there.”
A glimmer of hope flashed across everyone’s eyes upon hearing this.
The Eighth Heaven was a place where everyone headed outside, and everyone aspired to ascend to a higher realm.
Moreover, the Divine King Palace in the Eighth Heaven was extremely formidable. Even if the Soul Eater had recovered to his peak strength, he might not dare act rashly there.
“But Fourth Palace Master, your injuries…” Wu Hao said worriedly.
Ling Xi shook her head: “Although my injuries are serious, I can still force open a spatial channel. However…”
Ling Xi paused, a look of embarrassment on her face: “However, with my current strength, I can only open a small spatial channel, and can only teleport a few people at a time. It will take a long time to send everyone to the Eighth Heaven.”
Upon hearing this, the hope on everyone’s faces dimmed again.
They now had hundreds of people. If only a few people could be teleported at a time, it would require a lot of teleportation.
During this time, the Soul Devourer might have sent people to hunt them down.
“What should we do?”
Zi Yuan said anxiously, “We can’t just stay here and wait for the Soul Eater to kill us, right?”
Everyone fell silent. For a moment, an air of despair filled the valley.
Just then, David suddenly had an idea.
“I have a plan!”
David exclaimed suddenly.
Everyone stared at him, their eyes filled with confusion.
David smiled faintly and took out a small, black, tower-shaped magic weapon from his storage ring.
“This…” Ling Xi stared at the black tower, a flash of surprise flashing in her eyes. “Could this be the legendary Demon Suppression Tower?”
“Yes, this is the Demon Suppression Tower,” David said with a smile. “This tower isn’t just used to suppress demons, it also has a special function.”
“What function?” everyone asked curiously.
“The flow of time inside this tower is different from outside,”
David explained. “One day outside is equal to one hundred days inside. You can enter the tower to train and quickly recover from your injuries.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up in shock.
One day outside is equal to one hundred days inside—how incredible! If they entered the tower to train, it would only take a few days to recover from their injuries, and perhaps even increase their strength.
“Is this… is this true?” Ling Xi asked in disbelief.
David nodded, “Of course it is. The flow of time inside this tower is indeed different from outside.”
“Great!”
Ling Yue said excitedly, “This way we won’t have to be afraid of the Soul Eater! Once we recover from our injuries, even if the Soul Eater comes, we won’t be afraid of it!”
Hearing this, everyone’s faces lit up with joy. They finally saw hope.
“Everyone, quickly enter the tower,”
David said with a smile. “I’ll protect you from the outside.”
Everyone nodded, and, led by Ling Xi, they entered the Demon Suppressing Tower one by one.
Seeing everyone enter the tower, David breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that now all he needed to do was protect everyone from the outside and wait for them to recover.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
