55: Chapter 55 Inheritance Tower? A leveling tower!
...
"Current floor: 1."
Only after the feeling of dizziness disappeared did Chu Ran slowly open his eyes.
Looking around, he found himself in the middle of a void...
Other than a suspended Great Path beneath his feet, there was nothing around but darkness...
He could only walk along the suspended Great Path until a foul, fishy stench wafted from ahead...
In the surrounding darkness, many small, glowing eyes suddenly appeared, blinking.
[Demon Dog]
[Level: Lv.5]
[Grade: gold grade.]
...
"Is... that it?"
Looking at the scruffy monsters appearing before him, the trace of excitement that had risen in Chu Ran's heart faded away...
[Quantity: 5467]
"Holy crap!"
There were actually over five thousand of them!
Chu Ran instantly perked up.
"Profound Heaven Sacred Turtle!"
In the next moment, a heaven-shaking pressure surged from the formation diagram that appeared behind Chu Ran.
The Demon Dogs that were originally about to pounce instantly retreated two steps.
Chu Ran discovered that the group of Demon Dogs could actually step on the void, but when he tried to do the same, he would fall...
In this situation, the Sacred Turtle couldn't come out; who knew what would happen if it fell immediately upon appearing...
He immediately summoned the Saint Mosquito Queen, and the Mosquito Beast Legion attacked at once. In an instant, the Demon Dogs were almost all dead...
After killing all these monsters, no more monsters were replenished; instead, a door appeared.
Chu Ran pushed the door open and entered, finding that the scene had changed slightly; it was no longer a single-plank bridge...
"Current floor: 2."
However, the number of monsters only increased.
Thinking that this was a great opportunity to grind levels.
Chu Ran immediately summoned the Sacred Turtle.
But after the Sacred Turtle appeared, its exposed, fierce pressure instantly spread. The monsters stopped in their tracks, none daring to step forward and attack...
But Turtle didn't have any active attack skills either...
The scene was frozen like this...
Neither side made the first move.
Although the monsters were a bit dim-witted, they weren't so stupid as to directly challenge a big fellow whose aura was countless times stronger than theirs...
The monsters looked at each other, seemingly wondering why this terrifying existence before them wasn't attacking?
As a result, in the next moment, a hint of... blankness appeared in their eyes.
They saw that menacing, massive existence turn around, sticking its rear high in the air, with its thick tail extending and swaying back and forth within its shell...
Seeing this scene, Chu Ran's expression was now the same as those monsters...
"Couldn't there be a more dignified way to use it..."
"It's a Saint Spirit Level after all..."
However, this "Invincible Taunt" was indeed quite effective. The group of gold grade monsters became bolder, staring straight at the Sacred Turtle with resentment, wishing they could rip off its giant tail...
As expected, humiliation is the most effective way to break someone's defense, and even monsters are no exception...
This taunt had made them briefly forget the huge gap in grades; they only wanted to do one thing now: tear it apart, along with that punchable tail!

[Kill... Gained experience...]
...
Compared to the Mosquito Queen's mob-clearing ability, the Sacred Turtle currently seemed four or five times slower...
However, this was also related to the monsters' own damage; their attack power was too low, so even with double damage reflection, it couldn't achieve a lethal blow in one hit...
But for the only Beast Tamer's pet in his contract that wasn't at max level, he had to cherish this rare opportunity to grind levels. Moreover, the further he went, the higher the monsters' damage would be, and the speed would increase accordingly...
[Current Pet: Profound Heaven Sacred Turtle]
[Grade: Saint Spirit Level!]
[Level: Lv.6→Lv.35]
[Agility: 26834→5034]
[Defense: 214689→475689]
[Spirit: 76548→12048]
[Combat Power: 154986→257648]
...
This wave directly gained twenty-nine levels!
This wasn't some Inheritance Pagoda; this was clearly a Leveling Pagoda prepared specifically for the Sacred Turtle!
Judging from the attribute changes on the panel, for every level Turtle gained, its Agility increased by 800 points, Spirit increased by 1,500 points, and its Defense directly reached a terrifying 9,000 points!
Nine thousand points per level!
After reaching max level, this Defense attribute could reach at least 1.5 million...
What does 1.5 million mean?
Without using Laws, a full-power strike from a Ninth Revolution Elemental Professional would probably reach around 200,000 attack power, and that's only with the bonus from a Soul Seed element...
If they had a Heaven Seed, they could probably add another fifty to sixty thousand attack...
Even using Laws would at most double their combat power, but it would also accelerate the depletion of their life...
With such a strike, a single Shanyuan City could vanish from the continent without even leaving ashes behind...
For a max-level commander grade monster, having a Strength attribute reach 20,000 would mean it has an extremely high bloodline...
For Monarch Grades like the Dragon Sparrow and Thunder Flood Dragon, their actual attack power is probably fifty to sixty thousand higher than the Strength attribute on their panels, but even then, it's only barely over 200,000...
Furthermore, Turtle also has a damage reflection skill...
If Monarch Grades like the Thunder Flood Dragon and Dragon Sparrow used their full power to attack Turtle, the reflected damage might just kill them instantly...
Is this what a Saint Spirit Grade Beast Tamers Pet is like...
If Monarch Grade is the peak for a Beast Tamer, then Saint Spirit Level is the beginning of the path to godhood...
Chu Ran didn't know if there were actually gods in this world; he only knew that he was probably about to make it...
Thinking of this, Chu Ran became excited; he wanted to level Turtle up to max level immediately!
"Full assault! Third floor!"
...
At the Imperial Capital Professional Association, the twelve elders watched the scenes inside the Inheritance Pagoda, their old eyes showing a hint of emotional turmoil.
"The youth are to be feared... truly to be feared..." Xiao Yuhe said with a smile, sighing repeatedly.
The others also looked pleased, but Jiang Chuan, in the corner, had his brow furrowed and couldn't bring himself to smile.
"Don't you think this child is growing a bit too fast?" Jiang Chuan spoke up.
As the Dean of the Magic Capital Martial Academy and a Beast Tamer like Chu Ran, he knew very well that the growth of a pet doesn't happen overnight; it's a long wait.
A growth rate like Chu Ran's was extremely abnormal, even eerie!
It's too fast!
"This Sacred Turtle should be the terrifying existence that Old Xiao and Tianba sensed at the Zhou Family, but the Saint Mosquito Queen he summoned on the first floor seemed to be only Monarch Grade yesterday... She became this terrifying just after a trip to the Southern Region, and also..."
Jiang Chuan said indifferently, "I checked the information registered in Lin Feng City; it shows he only awakened a few days ago..."
In just a few days, he went from a First Turn Professional to such a powerful Beast Tamer!
He's even much stronger than an old man like me...
Jiang Chuan's old eyes looked at Xiao Yuhe. "Old Xiao, you're the one among us who understands cultivation the most. Why don't you tell us what kind of cultivation method could reach such an astonishing level?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yuhe put away his smile and said calmly, "Divine Scion."
The room instantly fell silent as eleven people simultaneously turned their shocked gazes toward Xiao Yuhe...
