Tower Ascension Part 5

Li Xuehua stood on the fortieth floor, the highest level that Mei Dong had reached but was unable to conquer. Before her were dozens of slave elves, the weakest among their kind but highly intelligent and formidable when united. Initially confused by the presence of such a delicate-looking child, the elves soon let out a noise that signaled their intent to attack.

Undeterred by their aggression, Li Xuehua unleashed her Fiery Path cultivation. Every movement she made was imbued with blazing speed and ignited with sparks of fire. Each slash she delivered was a testament to her control and mastery over the fiery energy. Master Ting, witnessing this display of skill, could hardly believe that someone so young possessed such a high-level cultivation technique.

Observing the events from the top of the tower, Grandmaster Mao felt a familiar surge of celestial power emanating from Li Xuehua. It confirmed his suspicions that this child possessed a celestial power related to flame, although the exact nature of the flame remained unknown to him. Intrigued by this revelation, he watched with great interest, eager to witness the extent of Li Xuehua's power.

As Li Xuehua battled the slave elves, the intensity of the confrontation escalated. The elves, despite being the weakest among the tower's inhabitants, fought with cunning and coordination. But Li Xuehua's fiery prowess and her indomitable spirit allowed her to overcome their resistance. With each strike, she inched closer to her ultimate goal.

The floors beyond the fortieth proved to be a grueling test for Li Xuehua. Each level presented her with dozens of powerful monsters to defeat. Despite the toll it took on her body, covered in cuts and bruises, her eyes burned with an unquenchable fire. She relished every moment, finding joy in the challenges the tower bestowed upon her.

Finally, Li Xuehua ascended to the forty-ninth floor. Her body was weary, battered from the relentless battles, but her determination remained unyielding. As she dispatched the last remaining ghoul on the floor, a sense of exhilaration coursed through her. Master Ting, witnessing her unstoppable drive, could only gulp in awe.

On the fiftieth floor, Grandmaster Mao awaited her. "Congratulated Li Xuehua." He acknowledged her as a genius and prodigy. "The monster that should have been the king of bears had already been slain by me, clearing the way for this final floor's monster which is me." He winked at Li Xuehue and looked at Master Ting. "Master Ting, you can go back." Grandmaster Mao commanded. Master Ting, with a tinge of disappointment, left the scene, knowing he could not witness to the fight.

With her killing intent unleashed and a smile of excitement on her face, Li Xuehua prepared to face Grandmaster Mao. This was her moment to go all out, to test her limits and unleash the full extent of her power on this small body of hers.
