The fifth floor of the tower is a wide space.

What surprised Xiuyi was that there were twelve statues standing in this space. The twelve statues had different faces, human-shaped warriors and various strange monsters. They were located in this lobby. Although they were dead objects, they were majestic.

What made Xiu Yi feel alert was that in front of the twelve statues, the corpses of the alchemist were displayed at the feet of almost every one of them.

"These statues are strange." Xiu Yi told Xu. The hub outside the castle obviously controls various mechanism traps, but it is inevitable that it will be impossible to close down some non-mechanical protections.

If these statues were mechanisms, they should have been closed, but if not...

For some reason, when she walked into the hall, Xiu Yi suddenly felt a sense of danger in her heart.

"Be careful!" he screamed suddenly.

A statue of a warrior holding a big sword suddenly slashed down at Xu.

This sword was extremely powerful, carrying a ten thousand jun aura. Xiu Yi picked up Xu and rolled forward. The big sword wiped Xiu Yi's scalp and cut off a few hairs.

Just as he was about to follow Shuyi, the black warrior's sword was unsheathed.

A series of brilliant sparks flew everywhere, and the stone sword that was statue of the warrior was not destroyed.

As Xiu Yi rolled over, the eleven statues next to him also moved one after another.

These statues are all kinds, and even the attack methods are varied. Some monster statues can even use magic, but their movements are agile and flexible, without any sense of dullness and heaviness.

"This is not a statue, it is a puppet! It is a war puppet!" Xiu Yi shouted.

Electra had countless inventions. Xiu Yi never expected that in this castle, there was another magic puppet invented by Electra. This magic puppet is obviously different from the Vajra puppets that can change shapes. They do not have the ability to deform, but they have the ability to disguise.

Hell Electra, he actually made the puppet into a stone carving, forming a huge deception. No wonder those alchemists died here, I’m afraid that when they died, they didn’t know that these twelve statues were actually powerful puppets.

A trace of black light passed through the air. The undead demon rat used its ability to maneuver at high speed to avoid the attack of a puppet. The long tail of the chain whipped out an air ripple in the air and stabbed it hard at the puppet's arm.

Two flaming birds spewed out raging flames at the same time, turning the entire space into a sea of ​​fire.

"Red, green, don't take action. I'm not at the point of tearing down here and letting the black warriors and demon rats deal with them. Let my works and Electra's works have a head-on collision to see which one is stronger!" Xiu Yi shouted.

He hugged Xu and left the battle space. In the hall, the black warrior and the demon rat faced twelve puppets, fighting fiercely.

Although he had a heartfelt admiration for Electra, the boy also had a strong competitive heart.

The Black Warrior and the Demon Rat are Xiu Yi's own alchemy works. Although there are many Electra's skills, Xiu Yi himself made it and is also his two most powerful works. Even if he is here to visit his senior, he should take out his works and take a look at it, even if this senior is no longer here.

The battle in front of him was extremely fierce, but the obsessive heat flashed in Xiuyi's eyes. Compared with the Vajra puppets, these puppets lacked their changeability, but had stronger defense capabilities. They were obviously made of special materials, with extremely high strength and were almost not afraid of knife and axe chopping. If the undead monster rat was not enchanted with a sharp magic circle, the black warrior itself had a fighting spirit attack, and the general damage would hardly work for them.

Electra's wisdom is extraordinary, and everything she creates is enough to make the world sensation.

Xiu Yi shouted: "The one who attacks them is the main hub. I want the complete puppet, don't destroy the whole."

As a student of Electra, he soon discovered the weaknesses of these puppets.

"As for order!" The black warrior sent a cold answer.

The long sword containing the energy of Dou Qi sucked and spit out rapid electric light. The Dou Qi hit the stone statues, and the huge impact brought by the energy directly penetrated into the inside through the tough outer shell.

The pirate's hub was destroyed, just like the human heart was broken and all movements stopped immediately. In a blink of an eye, the twelve pirates stopped operating and turned into stone statues again.

This time, they will not suddenly survive.

Xiuyi walked forward, caressed the puppets carefully, and murmured: "It was made of marble mixed with some other special metals. It was very interesting. It seemed that Electra had invented a formula that could make ordinary marbles a hundred times harder. It was great. This was a more valuable discovery than the Vajra puppet. Even in the era of Electra, resource demand was still the top priority. I guess what he wanted to do at first was not a puppet that could be disguised, but a puppet made of ordinary stone. But he accidentally discovered that the puppet made of this stone could turn into a statue, with greater secrets and suddenness. Do you know what this means? Xu. Vajra puppets were puppets made of high-end materials, which were destined to be subjected to materials and were limited in quantity. But this kind of puppet was different. They could be produced in large quantities... Well, it's a puppet that could not be put into the space ring."

Xiu Yi opened the cavity of one of the sword-holding warriors and took out a soul magic bead from it. This soul magic bead had been shattered by the black warrior's fighting spirit.

Still using the soul bead as the main drive means that it cannot be put into the space ring, which makes Xiu Yi feel very sorry. But even so, Xiu Yi knows that if he wants to build a magic puppet corps in the future, then this kind of magic puppet is obviously more suitable for the main combat troops than the Vajra puppet.

For Xiuyi, the most rare thing is that their production costs seem to be much lower.

"Maybe we can find on the top level about making their notebooks," said Souyi.

With his men, after collecting the relics of the dead alchemists, they continued to explore the upper level.

The stairs are getting longer and longer, as if they can't get to the end.

What appeared in front of Xiu Yi was always high steps made of silicon crystals, spiraling upwards one after another.

"Father, it seems that something is wrong. Is the staircase too long?"

"It seems that this is the third difficulty left by Electra, a maze." Shuyi calmly replied.

Before entering the tower, he had already guessed that there must be a maze-like existence in the tower.

The little guy Xu didn't understand: "Didn't we turn off all the mechanisms?"

"There are mostly fierce and vicious mechanisms that are closed, but Electra still leaves some tests that must be experienced, which we cannot avoid. This maze is obviously also a test, but it no longer tests our force, but tests intelligence, just like the magic circle on the gate of the Valley Laboratory." Xiu Yi's tone was low: "Obviously, this is the most important test of Electra. Whether it is the four-winged Tooth Beast or the twelve Phantom statues, these difficulties are nothing for truly powerful people. The problem is that Electra does not want to leave his legacy to laymen who do not understand alchemy, so he needs a way to prove. This level is the way to prove. Those who enter must rely on their own understanding of alchemy to walk out of this maze and prove that they are an excellent alchemist. Otherwise, we will never reach the top of the tower."

"Then what should we do?"

"Electra is an alchemist, so the problems he left behind can only be solved by alchemy." Xiuyi said as he took out the development sand fog: "Try it with this thing first, it can discover all hidden existences. To be honest, I don't think this maze will be so simple. Do you remember a madman once came out of here?"

A handful of developing sand mist sprinkled, and countless small crystal dots filled the air.

Under the illumination of these small lights, the pitch-black stairs showed some light.

In the darkness at the end of the stairs, a resentful spirit suddenly appeared, revealing its sharp fangs, and stretching out its sharp claws to float towards Xiuyi.

"Be careful, it's an illusion attack!" Xiu Yi shouted.

Xiu Yi never believed that there would be resentful spirits here. Since it was a maze, there would definitely be a confusing existence.

However, when the resentful spirit flew to Xiu Yi's side, the cold and dead energy brought was so real.

It roared and pounced on Xiuyi. Xiuyi's long sword stabbed, as if it hit a piece of air. The vindictive spirit's empty body ignored the sword stab and disappeared after passing through Xiuyi's arm.

Xiu Yi felt a coldness surge in his heart. Looking at his arms, it was already covered in black.

This made him gasp so much that he could hardly confirm whether this was an illusion.

More resentful spirits appeared in front of them, densely filled with them, floating in the air, turning the entire ladder into a dead space.

Xu shouted: "Dad, I can't transform anymore!"

"I can't use magic and fighting spirit anymore, either." Shuyi replied bitterly: "This maze is much stronger than we imagined, it can close its power."

Xiu Yi took out a drop of sacrifice oil from his body and threw it at the group of resentful spirits dancing in front of him.

"Boom!" A large ball of violent flames rose from the ground, burning the resentful spirits to scream and wail.

"Only alchemy is allowed." Xiu Yi added coldly.

The flaming bird behind him could not spit out any flames.

As he said before, what Electra has to test the alchemy ability of the visitors in this level is the arrival. He does not need the intruders to be very powerful, but only needs them to have excellent alchemy talents.

Therefore, this maze does not allow anyone to break through with force.

The vengeful spirits blocked the entrance of the passage but did not attack. It seems that their mission is to protect. The vengeful spirits who attacked earlier should be a warning, warning the visitor that these vengeful spirits have the ability to attack. If they force themselves to break through, they will face death.

Three drops of sacrifice oil flew to pieces, burning a large number of resentful spirits to ashes. However, the resentful spirits seemed to be endless. Every time one died, one would be generated out of thin air in the void.

They flew over the dark corridor, making loud screams, turning the whole scene into a shrill and dark place, as if one step would lead to the world of the dead. This scene was gloomy and terrifying, almost suffocating.

"Dad, what should we do?" The little guy was a little panicked. He could not transform, but could not use it. Xu looked at the resentful spirit in the sky and was a little scared. After all, it was still small and could not ignore everything in front of him.

"Don't be afraid, the more you are afraid, the more resentful spirits there will be. It comes from the generation of negative emotions in your heart." Xiu Yi discovered that when Xu said the word "fear", there seemed to be a few more resentful spirits flying in the air.

The maze with no end, the endless murderous spirits flying all over the sky, the magic and fighting spirit that cannot be used, it seems that Electrabu has set up a dead killing game.

"No, no." Xiu Yi shook his head: "Electra cannot set up a dead killing game. These resentful spirits should be illusions, so they can't kill them at all. But how did Electra make the illusions have the ability to attack?" Xiu Yi lowered his head and murmured to himself.

He looked at his arm and the black green on it still existed, bringing a hint of chill. If he was entangled by a large group of resentful spirits, Xiu Yi wondered if he would freeze to death immediately.

He quickly took out a bottle of healing potion and drank it, but the black green on his arm did not decrease at all.

"The therapeutic agent is ineffective..." Xiu Yi narrowed his eyes and looked at the scars on his arm. Seeing that the therapeutic agent was ineffective, Xiu Yi did not feel depressed at all, but instead smiled on his face: "That's right. What Electra wants to test is this, this."

He suddenly turned around and looked at Xu: "Xu, do you know what is the most important thing to be an excellent alchemist?"

The little guy shook his head blankly.

Xiu Yi smiled: "It is the ability to discover the laws of things running. Only by mastering the laws of things running can we create various great alchemy. What Electra wants to test in this level is not the level of alchemy, but whether we have the potential and talent to become an excellent alchemist, which also includes calmness, wisdom, observation and care."

"Does this have anything to do with our current predicament? Dad?"

"Of course, the resentful spirit does not exist. This is a maze, a soul maze. It is not a physical entity, but only occurs in people's hearts. This is why healing drugs cannot cure injuries, because... I was not injured at all." Xiu Yi said, slowly raising his right hand. The blue marks on the arm were still the same, but Xiu Yi slowly said: "Since it is a maze of the soul, it should be a maze that belongs only to me. In this maze, everything is false, including these resentful spirits, my injuries, these endless stairs, and... your existence."

He looked back at Xu and the Chiyan Bird, raised the sword in his hand, and showed a ferocious face.

The little guy Xu showed great horror: "No, dad, I am your child, you can't kill me!"

"If you really are Xu, you would never tell me that way. The demon dragons are proud existences. Their pride makes them never bow their heads under any fear. Even the newly born young dragons have the courage to challenge everything. Your understanding of Xu comes from my care for Xu when I dated Xu. You stereotyped my memory of it, but ignored the fact that its dependence on me comes from the deep feelings between me. But when facing danger, Xu is an impulsive and angry child, and he is definitely not like a child who still acts like a child."

"Hiss!" A sharp long hiss cut through the void. Xu Yi's side suddenly turned into a ball of blue smoke and flew into the air, gradually condensed into a huge resentful spirit. At the same time, the black warrior, the flame bird and the undead monster rat that had been silent also disappeared at the same time. He was the only one around Xiu Yi.

Looking up at the huge resentful spirit, Xiu Yi murmured: "Is this the hatred in my heart? It's so powerful. It seems that you are good at what the master is good at, and you have excellent disguise ability, but you can't hurt me."

"Hiss!" The huge resentful spirit roared at Xiu Yi, but it seemed to be scruples and did not dare to rush down.

Xiu Yi looked at the resentful spirit, and a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes: "I have walked through the maze of the soul once. I know that there is not only hatred in my heart..."

The light of Dou Qi suddenly emitted from the long sword, shining everywhere.

The huge resentful spirit screamed in horror, and with a sword carrying a huge force, it was already slashing towards the resentful spirit.

This sword broke through all obstacles, and with just one sword, it slashed the resentful spirit into pieces.

It seemed as if the strong wind blew and the mist dissipated. In front of Xiu Yi's eyes was a clean and empty room.

Not far away, the little guy Xu was lying on the ground and was sleeping beautifully, while the flamed bird was still standing on it.

The rat and the black warrior were still silently watching their master.

Everything that just happened only existed in Xiu Yi's heart. For them, it was like Xiu Yi standing alone and sitting there for a moment.

"Is this the sixth floor of the tower?" Xiu Yi looked around.

He looked at his arm intact.

Shuyi smiled: "Electra, although I have hatred in my heart, I also have love. I have never been so awake and know what I want and what to do. Your soul maze is useless to me."
