Chapter 1447: Chapter 1447: What Kind of Monster Is This?

"Hahaha, success."

As that deafening ’clang’ resounded, the eight ancient ancestors simultaneously burst into laughter, turning into shadows with a flash of blood light.

And at this moment, everyone in the square was stunned, as the Tower of Heaven stood infinitely high, wide beyond measure, with Yusuf Zuck, who had transformed into a giant several hundred feet tall, completely enveloped within it, vanishing instantly.

The world fell silent, Yusuf Zuck was suppressed within the tower, but what kind of tower was that?

Many were curious about the nature of this tower, wondering how it could be so wondrous.

"This tower, reaching the heavens, is also called the Tower of Heaven. Its origins are unknown, and no one knows what kind of mystical treasure it is, but it surpasses the Top Ten Pregenial Spirit Treasures of Antiquity. Anyone taken in by this tower perishes within it. It’s rumored that the tower contains the Nine Heavens Profound Fire, the Primordial Godly Thunder, and an unparalleled mystical rain that can melt deities; once the rain pours, even heaven and earth can’t tolerate it."

"Doesn’t that mean Yusuf Zuck is doomed?"

"Naturally, he’s doomed. According to legend, many of the great gods of antiquity have fallen within this tower. To be taken into the tower, one must be a true great god, a figure of prominence, unlike those fifty-one ancient righteous and evil gods who seem unqualified to be taken in by it."

"Incredible, the ancestors’ power is extraordinary."

"The ancestors are mighty!"

"The ancestors are mighty."

Once again, everyone in the square knelt down, praises like waves sounded ceaselessly in the air.

The eight ancient ancestors smiled faintly, and then, as the Pharaoh flicked his fingers, a beam of blood light struck the massive and vast Tower of Heaven, and he lightly commanded, "Receive."

"Whoosh～Buzz buzz buzz..." Immediately, the Tower of Heaven began to tremble, even as fierce winds clapped.

However, a peculiar scene unfolded, as the Pharaoh and the other ancestors furrowed their brows simultaneously, and everyone in the square was bewildered, wondering why, even though the Pharaoh gave the command to receive, it didn’t happen?

Many began whispering in low voices once more.

"It’s said that those suppressed by the tower are immediately melted, turned into vital energy and absorbed by the tower, thus increasing its power. The biggest drawback of the tower is that without refining the person suppressed inside, the tower won’t shrink; only once the refinement is complete can you take the tower away."

"The tower can shrink to a speck of light, becoming as small as a sesame seed, but as long as there’s something alive inside, the tower won’t change again."

"Does that mean Yusuf Zuck is still alive in there?"

"He should be alive, otherwise, he would have been taken in by now. However, there’s no need to worry; when the tower suppressed the ancient gods, there were some who weren’t extinguished immediately. There was even an ancient great god, a being transformed from a stone ox, nicknamed Stone-Breaking Sky. He burned inside for a full forty-nine days before being melted, and as for other great gods, some lasted for a few hours, some for days, all sorts of durations."

"By logic, Yusuf Zuck, being just a mid-level Divine Emperor, should have perished immediately upon entering, but since he didn’t, it just shows he has great endurance."

"I’ve heard he has a world within his cave; could he have retreated into it?"

"In no realm could he survive, this Tower of Heaven can melt even heaven and earth. Hence, Innate Spiritual Treasures, heavenly worlds, anything you can think of would be melted by this tower; that’s its formidable power."

"To whom does this tower belong?"

"It belongs to the eight ancient ancestors collectively. Rumor has it no ancient gods acquired this treasure, but it fell into the hands of the eight ancestors. It’s the decree of fate, so even the ancient gods dare not return lightly."

"Wow, with this tower, it’s invincible!" Everyone exclaimed in amazement and admiration.

At this moment, Landyn Torres walked up to the eight ancestors, frowned, and asked, "Could it be he won’t burn to death?"

"Dead within two hours, no need to worry," the Torres Family ancestor replied with a faint smile.

"Actually, I’m worried he’ll jump out, this person is extraordinary!" Landyn Torres took a deep breath and said.

"Jump out? You think too much, indeed, this person is unique, with boundless power, but the Tower of Heaven has suppressed him, which proves his fate has ended, with no way to survive."

"What a pity for the remarkable gifts he possessed."

"Nothing to pity, since he can’t be used by us, he must die."

The eight ancestors whispered together, unhurried, they initially thought he would be burned to death immediately, but since he wasn’t, it indicates this young man still has some destiny.

But no matter how great one’s destiny, entering the Tower of Heaven will end it. Since ancient times till now, only Stone-Breaking Sky stayed in there the longest, but didn’t he die in the end?

No matter the great god, they all perish inside.

The ancestors continued their whispers, while others in the square were chatting energetically, the previous tragic scene had vanished, leaving only the joy of victory among them.

Time passed quickly, two hours later, the eight ancient ancestors exchanged another look.

"Old Fa, still you take the tower, he should be dead, if he survives, I’ll swallow the Tower of Heaven whole!" The speaker was Wu Lao, who burst into hearty laughter, his voice resounding in all directions.

Everyone in the square smiled wryly, as Wu the ancestor was known for his humor.

"Very well, I’ll take the tower then, afterwards we must return," the Pharaoh smiled mildly, flicking his fingers again, launching another beam of blood light directly onto the Tower of Heaven.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the tower to shrink to the size of a sesame seed.

"Receive," the Pharaoh shouted.

"Buzz～buzz buzz buzz～" The Tower of Heaven trembled once more, and eyes in the square nearly fell out, he’s still not dead?!!!

"Uh..." The eight ancestors were a bit stunned; two hours, two hours, and he hadn’t burned to death? Knowing that many renowned ancient great gods were refined in minutes, and those gods were all earth-shaking existences, how did this one manage to survive?

What makes this Zuck different? How?

Wu Lao, who joked earlier, flushed with embarrassment, but no one dared to tease him, and no one dared to stir up the issue of swallowing the Tower of Heaven whole.

"What kind of freak is this?" Wu Lao fumed.

"Didn’t die in two hours, let’s wait another four hours, if still alive, he must perish within twenty-four," suggested another ancestor.

"Usually, it doesn’t exceed twenty-four hours. In antiquity, several great giants were formidable, but around twenty-four hours, they too were refined."

"So this time, let’s not rush, lest the juniors laugh at us. We’ll wait here for twenty-four hours," the Pharaoh said with gravity.

"Alright. Wait twenty-four hours!" The eight ancestors instantly flew up, taking position in the eight directions, and sat cross-legged in mid-air.

"By the way, have everyone disperse, start a bloodbath against the fifty-one tribes, leave no one behind," the Pharaoh commanded.

"Yes..." Landyn Torres accepted the order, immediately arranging for the dispersal of the crowd in the square.

Soon, everyone in the square left, but after dispersing, some chose tall taverns or inns and watched the Tower of Heaven while drinking.

The tower was so tall, it was hard to see the top, so all the divine citizens in the Eternal City, even those from the nearby eight Guard Cities, could see it clearly.

For twenty-four hours, all were waiting.
