The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1113 Lin Chen, do you dare to accept the challenge?
"Is this the Ghost Tower? It looks magnificent and imposing, so why is it called the Ghost Tower?"

"It's easy to see ghosts in the tower, why not call it the Ghost Tower?"

"It's said that this ghost tower looks only this big, but it's actually a completely different world inside, much larger..."

"Now the Ghost Tower has changed its mind. If you go in and fail, you'll just be thrown out. People who went in before almost always died inside."

"If it were like before, why would so many people dare to go in? Even Void Realm experts couldn't defeat them, let alone people like us. Now, since there's no danger to our lives, we can go in and try our luck."

Lin Chen stood on the hillside, gazing at the infamous Ghost Tower ahead.

The Ghost Tower has nine stories and looks no different from the ancient pagodas in ordinary temples, with an old and unremarkable appearance.

The tower's first floor door was wide open, with a light curtain blocking the entrance. At that moment, many adventurers were crossing the light curtain and disappearing into the tower. Meanwhile, some people were being thrown out of the tower with cries of alarm.

After observing for a while, Lin Chen saw at least ten adventurers being thrown out.

Some of these eliminated individuals were unharmed, while others were covered in blood, and some were even missing limbs, but none of them suffered fatal injuries.

"what!"

A scream rang out in the air, and a man was thrown out. Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.

He was thrown from the seventh floor!

The only one!
Does this mean he passed the sixth level and was then eliminated?
One checkpoint per level?
After the man tumbled and rolled twice in the air before regaining his footing, Lin Chen smiled.

This guy is actually Zhu Yao from the Zhu family of the God of Fire.

An acquaintance!
Zhu Yao wasn't injured, but he was very unhappy, his face full of resentment.

"Zhu Yao!"

In the sky, Zhu Yao heard someone calling him. He turned around with a sour face, but his eyes widened and his face lit up with joy.

“Hey, Lin…”

Before Zhu Yao could finish shouting, he quickly landed in front of Lin Chen and happily punched him.

"You're here too, hehe, where's Nana Wushuang?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Why does everyone ask me that when they see me?"

Zhu Yao chuckled and said, "The demon race all says you kidnapped the Holy Maiden and they're hunting you down everywhere. Of course everyone's curious, who's asking you anymore?"

"Zhao Feiyu".

Zhu Yao's expression changed slightly: "That guy is here too?"

Lin Chen nodded: "I ran into him in Haoyue City yesterday."

Zhu Yao pursed his lips: "Then I'll stay and see how he performs."

Lin Chen asked, "Tell me what's going on, so I can have some idea." Since they were all so familiar with each other, Lin Chen naturally didn't need to hide anything.

Zhu Yao readily replied, "Actually, there's not much to say. It's just a series of challenges. The first challenge is the Path to Heaven, where illusions abound. If you lose control, you'll fall and be eliminated. Then it's a series of challenges against opponents of varying strengths. Oh, right, there's one more challenge, haha..."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"

Zhu Yao laughed heartily, "There's a hurdle in the middle, which is actually passing through the Blazing Valley. Isn't that a freebie for the Zhu family?"

Lin Chen couldn't help but chuckle: "How many levels did you pass? What kind of opponents were you facing?"

Zhu Yao explained, "The six levels involve opponents who include cultivators and demonic beasts, and their strength increases with each level. However, what's peculiar is that these opponents are not real; they are virtual. Once you defeat them, they will simply disappear."

Lin Chen's eyes widened: "Virtualized?"

"Yes, it's like a play of light and shadow, but they actually possess very powerful strength..."

Lin Chen was astonished. The Ghost Tower had constructed an energy body capable of fighting?

On second thought, isn't this similar to the projection of the primordial spirit of a top-tier expert?
Lin Chen immediately felt relieved.

"You seem to have completed the highest level, right?"

Zhu Yao nodded: "It seems so, but it's meaningless. If you haven't passed it, it's the same no matter how many levels you go through."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "Aren't there any Void Realm experts coming to try?"

"Have!"

Zhu Yao replied, "I don't know what kind of challenge mechanism Ghost Tower has. Those Void Realm experts who enter Ghost Tower often only manage to pass three or four levels before being eliminated. It is said that the enemies they encounter are extremely strong. It should be that people of different strengths encounter opponents of different strengths."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Alright, we'll see if we try."

Zhu Yao encouraged him, "Your cultivation level may not be strong enough, but your ability to fight beyond your level is so strong. If we consider cultivation level, you have a great advantage in clearing the levels. Moreover, you are a Human Emperor recognized by the Human Emperor Seal, so you might even gain the recognition of the Ghost Tower."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words."

Just as Zhu Yao was about to speak, he suddenly turned around and said, "Zhao Feiyu is here."

Lin Chen turned his head and saw Zhao Feiyu stepping through the crowd and coming directly in front of him.

"Lin Chen, do you dare accept the challenge?"

Lin Chen calmly replied, "What challenge?"

Zhao Feiyu said coldly, "Let's go into the tower together and see who goes further."

Lin Chen smiled faintly: "Why not? I'll take this challenge. Don't cry if you lose."
