Chapter 49: Small Tower
“Eh… what is this thing?”
While thinking about how to take these things back, Ling Mo suddenly discovered that there was actually another thing at the altar on the first floor.
This was a small tower, with only half of it remaining, a very light small tower! The upper part was completely missing, leaving only a small section at the bottom.
Its shape looked a bit strange. Although only three layers remained, the aura emanating from inside the small tower was very familiar to Ling Mo.
“This thing, isn’t it the aura I sensed earlier outside?”
Suddenly, Ling Mo realized a problem!
Earlier outside, he had sensed the aura of this small tower multiple times.
But after coming in, this aura became even weaker! So much so that after being inside for so long, he almost forgot about this thing.
No wonder… with so many treasures right in front of him, Ling Mo’s attention was indeed diverted quite a bit, so it was normal not to notice.
Approaching the small tower, he felt the majestic aura it emitted, which was refreshing and pleasing to the mind.
Just this small tower, even if not used, carrying it with you would greatly benefit your own cultivation.
However… with such a vast aura, could it only have this much ability?
Obviously not. Ling Mo walked closer to observe slowly.
Reaching out to pick it up, he suddenly felt a powerful gravity pressing down, preventing him from lifting the small tower even a bit.
Vaguely, a repulsive force came from inside the small tower, strongly resisting Ling Mo! No matter how hard Ling Mo tried, he couldn’t pick it up.
“What a strange thing. Such a tiny little thing is actually this heavy? It must be an extraordinary treasure…”
No need to think—according to tradition, something that defies common sense is definitely a treasure.
Studying it carefully, Ling Mo found that this thing was truly extraordinary. Just that terrifying power alone was something others couldn’t withstand.
“Hehe, if this thing works for me, then next time I encounter someone I can’t beat, I can just throw it at them and smash them to death, right?”
Ling Mo imagined it, and it really seemed possible. This small tower could be called a divine artifact!
Studying it slowly, Ling Mo tried various methods to take the small tower, even using blood dripping for recognition from his previous life and urinating for recognition.
None of it worked at all. Instead, it triggered a huge reaction. After one pee, the small tower unleashed a powerful force that nearly killed Ling Mo…
He was violently knocked back, smashing into the wall, and Ling Mo fell flat on his face.
Luckily, little brother was fine, or else those beautiful girls waiting alone in empty rooms would have no one to visit them.
“Damn, I almost capsized in the gutter…”
This fierce collision truly stunned Ling Mo.
Getting up, he came before the small tower once again to observe.
Ling Mo was also enraged. Today, he wouldn’t leave without subduing this thing.
Saying that, he directly activated his dual pupils! Using the dual pupils to observe the changes in the small tower.
Suddenly, he discovered… a scripture transmitted from his mind, recording methods to refine artifacts.
“Hm? There really is a way…”
Ling Mo immediately noticed that scripture and burst into laughter upon seeing it.
He didn’t expect the dual pupils to have such an ability. It was simply an all-powerful supreme eye! Whatever he wanted appeared.
In an instant, Ling Mo began refining the small tower according to the scripture.
It took nearly half a day before he barely got the small tower to accept him.
His consciousness entered the small tower’s interior, and the scene before him shocked Ling Mo greatly.
“Damn! I’m really going to get rich…”
The interior of the small tower was a vast, boundless space, several tens of thousands of times larger than that small pot.
There were three layers in total, but apart from the first layer, the second and third layers were not open, blocked by a taboo.
Ling Mo tried to break it, but that taboo was very powerful and impossible to crack, so he had no choice but to give up.
However, the things in the first layer were already enough for Ling Mo to squander! Besides those powerful treasure artifacts, there was also a medicine garden filled with many immortal medicines Ling Mo didn’t even recognize.
From the auras emitted by these immortal medicines, Ling Mo could tell they were even more terrifying than those outside.
Even a single immortal medicine contained infinite power.
Unfortunately, though, Ling Mo couldn’t eat them even if he wanted to! Because the power contained in these immortal medicines was too strong, forcibly eating one would cause his body to explode immediately.
Of course… if he couldn’t eat them now, it didn’t mean he couldn’t later.
“Damn it, I’m rich! Rich!”
Golden light flashed in Ling Mo’s eyes, his face beaming like a nouveau riche.
This small tower was simply a treasure vault. Who knew which fool left it behind, letting Ling Mo pick up the bargain.
After preliminary refinement, Ling Mo had gained the small tower’s acknowledgment and become its new ruler.
And this vast space would become Ling Mo’s exclusive domain.
Good grief! In an instant, Ling Mo became the richest person in the world. Just selling the things inside would make him the world’s richest man instantly.
Having lived poor days, how could Ling Mo resist the temptation of wealth? With a wave of his hand, he directly transferred the things from the small pot into the small tower.
Putting away the small tower, Ling Mo collected all the treasures on the ground, not leaving a single one behind.
The entire drum tower was looted clean by Ling Mo.
They say grave robbery leads to wealth and prosperity—it seems true!
There were still many things in this Jing Jue Ancient City, but none compared to this drum tower.
It seemed all the valuable treasures were hidden inside the drum tower. Of course… there were some rather unique things outside, but Ling Mo didn’t dig those up again.
To avoid people later coming and seeing the empty Jing Jue Ancient City, weeping toward the sky.
After taking the small tower and researching it multiple times, Ling Mo discovered that this small tower was different from ordinary soul tools. It didn’t possess soul power but had a unique power.
Of course, there was also something quite unique: it could hold living things, even people could enter.
The inside formed its own world, more like a lost world! Sealed within the small tower.
“I didn’t expect not to find the coffin but instead a pile of treasures. With these treasures! I’m one step closer to dominating the world…”
Ling Mo’s excited mood couldn’t calm down. After a series of events, he suddenly realized that Tang San was truly miserable.
The original protagonist of the Douluo World had his protagonist halo inexplicably snatched by these people who suddenly intruded.
Anyone who came along could beat Tang San. Ling Mo originally thought it unrealistic, but now he believed it.
With cheats like that, Tang San really had it too hard!
Packing up all the things and confirming nothing was missed, Ling Mo left the drum tower.
Though he didn’t know what those people in the dream realm earlier represented, Ling Mo didn’t care—it had nothing to do with him anyway.
As for the sin blood mark on his head… that was nothing! Another mark would make him look even cooler.
As long as his handsome appearance wasn’t damaged, Ling Mo wouldn’t mind.
The mutation of the dual pupils had no downsides for Ling Mo for now; instead, it added an active attack skill.
As for whether it would awaken even more powerful supernatural abilities later, Ling Mo wasn’t clear yet.
Having been stuck at level thirty for half a month now, it was time to go out and get the third soul ring.
If Ling Mo guessed right, Zhao Wuji should now be taking Tang San and the others to the Star Dou Great Forest, right?
By time calculation, if no accident, they should now be right above Ling Mo’s head.
Ling Mo had always been eyeing the Five-Colored Emperor Flower by the Lake of Life, so he could use this opportunity to take it directly.
