Chapter 4435 Taking A Stand
Seeing the scene before him, Kai frowned instantly.
The others also wore grim expressions. It was clear that this tower didn’t resemble a treasure but instead
seemed to seal something sinister.
Kai's gaze lingered on the runes etched into the four stone lions. His body trembled involuntarily, and even the
Golden Tin his sea of consciousness quivered faintly.
Kai was shocked. He couldn't understand why the Golden Twould react in such a way.
The Golden Thad always been dormant in his spiritual sense unless a soul remnant attempted to invade and
seize control. Only in such situations would the Golden Tactivate.
Kai carefully examined the runes but found that he didn’t recognize them at all.
“These are celestial lord runes. It looks like whatever is being sealed here is far from ordinary,” the Vermilion
Demon Lord said suddenly.

“What are celestial lord runes? Are you saying a celestial lord is stronger than you?” Kai asked curiously.
The Vermilion Demon Lord rolled his eyes and replied, “Do yourself a favor and stop asking such brainless
questions. Comparingto a celestial lord? They wouldn't even bother to glance my way. My advice? Don’t get
any ideas about this tower. Leave while you still can.”
“Well, now you've goteven more interested,” Kai said, his curiosity deepening rather than waning.
“Kai, there's likely something extremely powerful inside this tower,” Catalina said, her expression serious as she
tightly clutched her life-saving token.
The life-saving token was emitting a faint glow, something it only did in the face of extrdanger.
When Catalina had been completely immobilized in the past, the token hadn't reacted at all. The fact that it was
glowing now meant the current situation was even more perilous than before.
Kai's face darkened, his brows knitting tightly. Could there truly be something unimaginably terrifying within the
tower? This is merely the Ethereal Realm. Could it really have played host to someone of great power during the
Celestial Battle?
Kai hesitated. Yet, the nagging curiosity in his heart grew stronger.
Curiosity kills the cat.
Everyone present shared the sheavy, vigilant demeanor.
“Lightning beast, what exactly is inside this tower? Why did you lead us here? What are you trying to achieve?”
Catalina suddenly turned to the lightning beast and demanded.
Given that the lightning beast was aware of the existence of the tower and its shield, it was evident that it had
been here before. Perhaps it knew something more!
The lightning beast, flustered, replied, “Buddy, you've got it wrong! | honestly don’t know what's inside this
tower. | admit I've been here before, but I've never dared to get close. I've never gone in either. With my current
strength, | wouldn't dare...”
“He hasn't been inside,” Kai said.
He was certain the lightning beast wouldn't have the courage to approach the pagoda. The sight of those four

“So, what do we do? Do we leave, or go inside?” Catalina asked.
Kai found himself in a dilemma.
Entering might be dangerous, but leaving without knowing was almost unbearable.
After a moment of deliberation, Kai turned to Cloud, Judith, and the others. “I'll go in alone. The rest of you stay
here. If anything goes wrong, run immediately.”
He didn’t want to put them in harm’s way. After all, no one knew what lay inside.
“Mr. Chance, | can’t let you take this risk alone. I'm going with you,” Cloud said firmly.
“I'm going too. At worst, we die,” Judith added resolutely.
“I'm coming along too. Don’t forget that my abilities surpass yours here,” Catalina reminded him.
Everyone then turned their gaze to the lightning beast.
“Don’t look atlike that. | brought you here, didn’t 1? Of course, I'm coming along. Otherwise, what's the point
ofbeing here?” the lightning beast declared hastily.
