Dual Cultivator with a cultivation system

Chapter 164 Ch-164: Treasure Pagoda

"Ugh, what the hell was that?" Feng Mei said, clutching her head as she felt dizzy all of a sudden.

"I think it was some kind of teleportation array," Wu Jing said, also assaulted by dizziness.

"Hmm, and by how easily and suddenly it teleported us, it does not seem like an ordinary teleportation array," Wang Ming said. As he scoured his surroundings, he saw a large towering building a few kilometers away from them.

"Look, there is some kind of storage building there," Wang Ming said to Wu Jing and Feng Mei, who had regained their bearings.

"Hmm, looks like we got teleported to some kind of secret location within the realm," Feng Mei said, examining her surroundings.

"Hmm, but why are there so many rusted artifacts here?" Wu Jing said with a frown, looking at different kinds of artifacts lying on the ground.

"Well, maybe we'll find out when he gets to that place," Feng Mei said, pointing at the huge tower a short distance away.

"Are you coming, or do you need another spanking?" Wang Ming teased Wu Jing, whose face turned red instantly, shooting him a glare.

"You..." Before she could say more, Wang Ming started to run towards the tower, followed by Feng Mei, who chuckled. Wu Jing could grit her teeth and follow them.

After a quick run, they reached the tower's base and were amazed at its towering height. It looked like it could touch the clouds, gleaming in bronze with intricate designs.

"Looks like we're not the only ones teleported here," Wang Ming said to Feng Mei and Wu Jing, pointing towards the crowd gathered in front of the tower.

"I think I've read about this tower in a book before," Wu Jing said, furrowing his brow as he tried to recall where he had come across it.

"Let's go and join the crowd; maybe we can learn from their conversation," Wang Ming suggested to the girls as they moved forward.

After joining the crowd, Wang Ming and the others moved towards a group, maintaining a bit of distance, and eavesdropped on their conversation.

"Hey, I didn't think we would be so lucky to stumble upon this place, here of all places. Even top experts searching for this place their whole lives rarely encounter it," said one of them.

"Lucky or unlucky, did you forget what kind of danger lies within it?" said a female.

"But the treasure Pagado has, man! Heaven-defying treasures in them" said another man with a greedy look on his face.

"Treasure Pagado, do you know what it is?" Wang Ming asked both the girls as the group had stopped talking.

"Hmm... Yes, I remember now!" Wu Jing thought for a moment and immediately exclaimed when she recalled what she had read about this tower.

"I can't believe we stumbled upon such a difficult place to find. Experts spend their whole lives searching for this spot, and even with their long lifespan, they can be unlucky not to encounter it," Wu Jing said with an excited smile on her face.

"I remember reading about the mysterious treasure pagado in a book at the sect," Feng Mei replied, mirroring Wu Jing's enthusiasm.

"Is it really that good?" Wang Ming asked, intrigued by the excitement on their faces. Although he sensed it must be rare, he still had a frown on his face as he wasn't familiar with it.

"Yes, from what I read in the books in the royal treasury, there are about a hundred floors in the tower. When you enter, your cultivation is suppressed to the lowest level, and each time you climb, the suppression lessens until you regain your original cultivation. However, you have to fight many beasts, some with higher cultivation than you," Wu Jing explained and continued.

"For example, a Golden Core Realm cultivator in the higher floors may need to face a Golden Core Realm opponent generated by the tower or even higher than the Golden Core Realm. Many people have died within the tower in search of treasures. The higher you climb, the greater the rewards. There's a rumor that no one has reached above the 75th floor. Even though there's death, the rewards are very rich, so many people risk their lives for it," Wu Jing said.

"Yes, I've also heard that encountering the treasure Pagado is nearly impossible as it spawns randomly, and only the lucky ones get to encounter it. I didn't expect we would be lucky enough to find it in this secret realm," Feng Mei added.

"I see," Wang Ming nodded in understanding and then turned his gaze back toward the tower.

"Look, that guy reached the 18th floor!" one person from the crowd shouted, and they all turned their attention to the 18th floor, lit up in an orange glow.

"Orange glow, he must still be fighting the opponent presented by the tower," remarked another person from the crowd. Suddenly, the light from the 18th floor dimmed, and an orange glow emitted from the 19th floor.

"Look, looks like he succeeded in his trial and is now on the 19th floor," said someone from the crowd. However, as soon as these words were spoken, the orange glow turned into a red one.

"Oh no, looks like he failed," the person continued, and at that moment, a body was flung from the 19th floor, landing on the ground below. The body looked completely withered and dried.

"Gulp, I heard rumors that the tower sucks out all vitality if the person fails, but this is really disturbing," someone said, swallowing nervously.

"Who told him to go up? I know the tower gives a warning to the challenger that they might die if they go any further. He must have let greed consume his decision," remarked a man with a sneer on his face.

"Who cares about him? I'm going next!" said a man with an enthusiastic look on his face.

"Huh, who said you could go? I've been waiting, I want to go now," said another person angrily.

Everyone started arguing about who wanted to go next, but suddenly all of their voices subsided when they saw two people approaching the entrance of the tower.
