Baby with Daoist Monarch System

”Within the Spear Intent, there is also a trace of Sword Intent, the two combine but do not conflict!”

The bald man carefully reminisced about that spear, all the scenes reappeared before his eyes, as if savoring a delicious delicacy, the aftertaste continually emerging, truly captivating!

”Haha!” After a moment of reminiscence, the bald man looked at Xu Ran and laughed loudly.

”You little one, you’re really something!”

With that, he waved his big hand and walked forward in high spirits.

During this trial, Xu Ran brought him so many surprises, and it became clear why Xu Ran was chosen by the Nine-Layered Giant Tower as the last person.

Everything has traces to follow!

As the bald man walked forward, a light screen appeared in front of him.

This light screen was pale blue throughout, like an endless sea, attracting attention.

Moreover, a ’whoosh’ sound of wind came from within, sounding as if someone was swinging something behind the screen.

The swinging speed was extremely fast, so much so that the sound emerging from the screen seemed like a sonic boom.

However, the bald man seemed completely unaware of this suddenly appearing light screen and walked right in.

Xu Ran watched this scene, feeling a bit surprised.

”Could the trial be over?”

There’s only this possibility; otherwise, why would the bald Gatekeeper ignore him and just leave?

Apart from this possibility, he couldn’t think of anything else.

Just as Xu Ran didn’t know when it happened, the bald man’s voice penetrated from the light screen.

”Aren’t you coming in for the next trial?”

In the bald man’s voice, there seemed to be a monkey call.

Xu Ran heard this and suddenly had an epiphany, while also puzzled by why there was a monkey’s voice behind the light screen.

What kind of trial would involve a monkey?

After pondering for a brief moment and coming to no conclusion, he simply gave up.

Who cares.

Eventually, after going through, he would know what kind of trial it is.

Without any hesitation, Xu Ran followed the bald man’s footsteps and entered the light screen.

...

Stepping into the light screen, first there was a blur, and then Xu Ran’s vision cleared, fully revealing the scene in front of him.

A vast dueling arena appeared before his eyes, its ground paved with ancient bluestones, engraved with marks of time and mysterious runes, exuding an ancient and heavy aura.

”This is...”

Xu Ran quickly scanned his surroundings, taking in the entire scene and noticing one thing.

The dueling arena, paved with bluestones, was surrounded by tiered circular seats.

There were no people sitting in these seats.

However, at the very front, there were three seats, and at the moment, three people were sitting there.

These three people looked very peculiar, appearing as if sitting on chairs but giving the impression of floating in the air.

Xuan Ran’s peripheral vision swept over them and familiar scenes appeared in his mind.

”So, it’s them!!”

When Xu Ran first entered the Nine-Layered Giant Tower, these three people had appeared in the massive dueling arena.

These three were extremely composed and had an expression that instilled fear.

”These three are probably observing my trial, closely connected to the Nine-Layered Giant Tower, but..... specifically, that remains unknown.”

”Whoo---”

Once Xu Ran saw the scene not far from the seats, the intense sound rushed by his ears, instantly captivating his entire focus.

Xu Ran was immediately drawn in.

He looked in the direction of the sound, and saw at the center of the arena, a not very tall yellow monkey continuously swinging a wooden staff.

This wooden staff appeared to be a most ordinary piece, without any aura.

”A monkey?”

Upon seeing this, Xu Ran murmured under his breath, his gaze focused on the monkey swinging the wooden staff with uncertainty.

Following Xu Ran’s gaze.

The center of the arena.

A nimble monkey was there, persistently waving the wooden staff.

The monkey’s golden fur seemed forged by the scorching sun, each hair shimmering with dazzling golden light, as if the purest sunlight was concentrated within it, its eyes resembling the brightest stars in the night sky, deep and bright, able to see through all darkness, its pupils dancing with lively glimmer revealing innate cunning and wisdom.

The most striking feature was the circle of pale golden runes on its forehead.

These runes, like golden hoops, encircled its forehead.

Every time the monkey swung the wooden staff, these runes would sparkle with a faint golden light.

”Oh?!”

What surprised Xu Ran was not the monkey’s appearance.

After all, in the Origin Realm, there were monsters, and monkeys with such an appearance wasn’t unusual.

But.

An ordinary wooden staff, when danced in its hand, seemed to come to life, producing whooshing sounds, each movement appearing to hold power to split mountains and stones, not to be underestimated.

While Xu Ran was mesmerized, the bald man appeared beside him unknown.
