Chapter 153 — Chapter 153 Clearing All 100 Floors

"Perfect concealment, huh? Let’s try it."

Yuan then activated Perfect Concealment for the Starry Abyss, and just like the unique ability’s description, the Starry Abyss suddenly became invisible with its presence and aura completely concealed.

However, in Yuan’s eyes, the Starry Abyss was not completely invisible, as he could still sense his own spiritual energy around the Starry Abyss.

With that being said, for the magical beasts and even the Great One, it felt like the Starry Abyss had suddenly disappeared from this world, almost like it ceased to exist.

’I can no longer feel the presence of the second Soul Weapon... It must have the ability to conceal itself... This is an extremely powerful ability even for a Soul Weapon...’ The Great One narrowed its eyes on Yuan, but alas, it could not sense the Starry Abyss no matter how much it tried.

’He can now kill even Spirit Masters without alerting them... What a terrifyingly powerful Soul Weapon... Where on earth did he obtain it?’

If the Great One knew that such a powerful Soul Weapon had once belonged to a family of mortals, it would definitely freak out.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Now that the magical beasts could not even see or detect the Starry Abyss, they have become absolutely defenseless and powerless under its attacks, and they could only stand there and wait for their turn to be killed.

The speed at which Yuan killed the magical beasts suddenly doubled with the Starry Abyss’s unique ability unlocked, and he killed the remaining 10,000 magical beasts in just a few more hours.

Meanwhile, Long Yijun and the sect elders waiting outside were almost shaking from anxiety.

"It’s been four days since Disciple Yuan stepped onto the 100th floor, yet he’s still inside... I wonder if something happened inside..." Long Yijun mumbled with a nervous frown on his face, as he cannot even begin to imagine losing someone as talented as Yuan in just a few days after he’d joined the sect!

"I hope it’s nothing serious... Maybe it’s like the Tablet of Comprehension, where he is given a week to finish." Elder Xuan sighed, trying to convince himself that nothing had happened to Yuan.

"Can one even die inside the tower?" Elder Shan suddenly asked. "The magical beasts inside are merely illusions. Although they can hurt you slightly from the impact, they cannot kill you— at least I have never heard of a disciple dying inside the tower before."

"The tower won’t allow a disciple to die while inside. It will automatically stop the trial if it deems the disciple to be in a dangerous situation." Long Yijun said.

"But things could be different on the 100th floor..." Bai Ling said. "After all, none of us have been to the 100th floor before, so we cannot rule out that possibility."

The place immediately turned silent.

However, the very next moment, the tower suddenly began trembling.

"Eh? What’s happening?!"

Before anyone there could even react, the 100th floor emitted a golden light, and a semi-transparent golden dragon suddenly escaped the tower and appeared in the sky directly above the Dragon Essence Temple, shocking all of the disciples there and even people outside the sect!

This golden dragon flew a few circles around the Dragon Essence Temple before flying higher into the sky and disappearing from the peoples’ view. However, a sound that resembled a dragon’s roar could be heard a few moments later that echoed thousands of miles away, sending chills down the spine of everyone that heard it.

"Heavens! What on earth was that just now?!" Long Yijun cried out loud afterward, feeling his body rapidly heating up and his heart throbbing like war drums!

Meanwhile, disciples all around the Dragon Essence Temple could all see a golden tower standing majestically in the Outer Court, as the tower itself had suddenly changed appearance too.

"L-Look over there! That’s the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate Tower! The highest floor is emitting a golden light! Does this mean someone had managed to clear all 100 floors in the tower?!"

"Impossible! Who could’ve done such a thing?!"

Nearly every disciple in the sect began making their way to the Outer Court to see what was going on and witness for themselves the disciple who’d managed to achieve this incredible feat.

"Just like the Tablet of Comprehension and the silver tree— the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate has also become golden!" Elder Xuan exclaimed.

"H-He really did it! Disciple Yuan really defeated all 100 floors in the tower, becoming the first person in history to achieve such a grand feat!" Long Yijun stared at the tower that had all 100 floors emitting a golden light with a gawking look on his face.

"Sect Master, this is going to be troublesome. I have just received intel that many powerful figures from the other elite sects are approaching the Dragon Essence Temple." Bai Ling suddenly said to him.

"Furthermore, the disciples from the Inner Court are also heading to this place."

"What a pain in the ass!" Long Yijun immediately retrieved his jade slip and activated it with his spiritual sense before speaking in a loud and domineering voice.

"This is the Sect Master speaking! Any disciple that approaches the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Tower will immediately have their disciple status stripped regardless of their status! This includes sect elders too! I repeat! Stay away from the tower!"

Long Yijun broadcasted his voice throughout the sect to every disciple like some sort of in-game announcement, and all of the disciples that wanted to approach the tower immediately halted their movements and no longer dared to continue forward.

"Dealing with the disciples in the sect isn’t much of an issue, but for those outside the sect... We’ll have to prepare for them." Elder Xuan said.

"It is what it is. I knew Disciple Yuan wouldn’t be able to keep his talents hidden for long, but we’ll still try our best to protect his identity until the Mystic Realm opens! Once that happens, the people managing the Mystic Realm will definitely be able to protect him!" Long Yijun said.

And he continued, "Elder Xuan, stay here until Disciple Yuan comes out. As for the rest of us, we are going to prepare for our guests!"

"Yes, Sect Master!"
