Chapter 268: 268: Breaking the Heaven Gate Will
Upon hearing Conrad Schroeder’s address, Marvin Howard couldn’t help but be taken aback.
These two people, they were actually accomplices?
And this senior actually referred to him as Mr. Smith?
“Hmph, definitely a rich young man.” Marvin Howard snorted coldly.
He tried to sense the aura on Ethan Smith and found that Ethan’s strength was so weak it could be ignored.
This confirmed the suspicions in Marvin Howard’s heart.
“How about we go together? We’ve already arranged for a vehicle.” Aislinn Noble pointed to an off-road vehicle not far away and said.
With the urgency of the situation, it would indeed be a waste of time to find another car.
Ethan Smith thought for a moment and then nodded, “Alright, thank you.”
And so, the group got into the car together and headed for the Ancient Tower.
All the way, Marvin Howard kept chattering nonstop.
“It’s said that the Ancient Tower is mysterious and unpredictable, and even sells a high-quality Pill that can enhance one’s strength as long as it’s taken.” Marvin Howard said.
Aislinn Noble nodded along, “That’s right, and you can also make a wish. Many people say that making a wish here is particularly effective!”
“Mr. Smith, what they are talking about is the Earth Fiend Valley.” Conrad Schroeder whispered at the side.
Ethan Smith’s brows furrowed slightly, and he looked doubtfully at Conrad
Schroeder, “Earth Fiend Valley is also selling Pills?”
“Yes, and they have an extremely large industry.” Conrad Schroeder said solemnly.
Ethan Smith snorted, “I don’t believe what they say. The purpose of an evil sect like Earth Fiend Valley is definitely not a simple one.”
Conrad Schroeder sighed, “Indeed, Earth Fiend Valley is not for profit, but no one Imows what they are truly after.”
The car sped all the way and soon arrived at the Ancient Tower.
Although the Ancient Tower was called a “tower”, it was actually a small hill, with something resembling a signal tower built on top of it.
There was a glittering golden plaque hung on the signal tower, recording various mysterious histories.
Ethan Smith inspected the signal tower, his brows furrowing slightly. “Do you feel that there’s something odd about this signal tower?” Ethan Smith asked in a deep voice.
Conrad Schroeder quickly nodded, “This signal tower seems to emit a strong mental force that makes people unconsciously attracted to it.”
“The power of faith?” Ethan Smith murmured softly.
It was said that the power of faith was the most purified force, with effects beyond imagination.
“We don’t have time to think about it too much, let’s go.” Ethan Smith whispered.
Then, the group hurriedly rushed towards the small hill.
At the foot of the hill, they built a long Stone Staircase.
The Stone Staircase was at least several dozen meters long, and at its sides stood two martial artists.
Ethan Smith glanced at them and found that the strength of the two martial artists had reached the Master Realm.
“Are there any conditions to enter here?” Ethan Smith frowned and asked.
“Of course, to enter here, you must have a devout heart. Otherwise, you’re not qualified to enter,” Aislinn Noble explained with a smile.
Marvin Howard shot a glance at Ethan Smith and said meaningfully, “Many second-generation rich try to use money to sneak in, but unfortunately, none of them has succeeded.”
It was obvious that he was talking about Ethan Smith. In Marvin Howard’s eyes, Ethan Smith was a worthless young man from a rich family.
And Conrad Schroeder was Ethan’s bodyguard.
Ethan Smith didn’t say anything, he strode forward, and in the blink of an eye came to the entrance.
The two at the entrance quickly reached out to stop Ethan Smith.
In front of them was a Stone Tablet.
From the Stone Tablet, a faint dark energy emanated.
To enter, one had to pass the test of this Stone Tablet.
“I’ll go first!” Marvin Howard quickly walked to the Stone Tablet.
He raised his hand and placed it on the Stone Tablet. After a moment, the Stone Tablet emitted a faint rumbling sound.
The sound was not loud, but it was clear that the Stone Tablet was shaking.
“You can enter,” the two doorkeepers said faintly.
Upon hearing the words, Marvin Howard was overjoyed!
However, he didn’t enter immediately but waited for Aislinn Noble and the others at the side.
Just as Aislinn was about to test, the doorman said, “Women don’t need to be tested; they can enter directly.”
Hearing this, Ethan Smith couldn’t help laughing coldly.
Earth Fiend Valley was indeed not for profit.
“Seniors, hurry up, I’m waiting for you!” Marvin Howard shouted from the side.
Conrad Schroeder’s brows furrowed slightly, and he looked unconsciously at Ethan Smith, as if waiting for Ethan’s command.
“I’ll go first,” Ethan Smith walked to the Stone Tablet, raised his hand, and placed it on the Stone Tablet.
The moment he touched it, Ethan Smith immediately felt a current like lightning pass through his body!
In just an instant, Ethan Smith’s divine sense faded a bit!
“Absorbing divine sense power?” Ethan Smith frowned slightly.
Just as Ethan Smith was pondering, the two doormen approached and said coldly, “You’re not devout enough, so you cannot enter.”
“Haha, I knew it!” Marvin Howard burst into crazy laughter on the side.
“What do you young men like you understand about martial arts and belief?” Marvin Howard sneered.
Ethan Smith ignored him, glanced at the doorkeepers, and asked coldly, “How can I be devout enough?”
The doorkeeper said impatiently, “Don’t ask me. I don’t know. Anyway, everything depends on the judgement of the Stone Tablet.
“Fine, you don’t have to waste your time. Just wait outside for us,” Marvin Howard shouted from the side.
Ethan Smith’s face was cold, he glanced at the two doorkeepers and said, “So, if I don’t pass the Stone Tablet’s test, I can’t go in, right?”
“That’s correct,” the two doorkeepers nodded.
“What if I insist on going in?” Ethan Smith’s tone grew increasingly chilly.
“Can you not waste time?” Marvin Howard shouted impatiently from the side.
“As long as you don’t get the approval of this Stone Tablet, you won’t be able to pass through Heaven Gate, understand?” Marvin Howard said with some displeasure.
Ethan Smith frowned, “Heaven Gate?”
Marvin Howard sneered, “It seems you don’t know much about the Ancient Tower. ”
“This Ancient Tower is a gift from heaven, a grace from the gods! Without any approval, you will be excluded by Heaven Gate! No matter how great your ability is, you have to stand outside obediently!” Marvin Howard scoffed. Ethan Smith’s eyes narrowed as he looked toward the entrance.
As expected, there was an invisible barrier at the entrance.
As long as you didn’t get the approval of the Stone Tablet, you would be kept out.
And once approved by the Stone Tablet, one could directly pass through the barrier.
“You weren’t approved by Heaven, got it?” Marvin Howard shouted.
Aislinn Noble also whispered at the side, “I think I’ve heard about it. Don’t make it difficult for them; they can’t control Heaven Gate either…”
Ethan Smith laughed coldly.
He took a look at the entrance and the Stone Tablet beside it, the corner of his mouth curving into a smile.
“If I break this so-called Heaven Gate, I can just enter, right?” Ethan Smith asked, raising an eyebrow.
Upon hearing this, Marvin Howard suddenly burst into laughter.
“You’re really funny. You want to break Heaven Gate? Are you still dreaming?
Even a Grandmaster can’t do it, do you understand?” Marvin Howard sneered.
Ethan Smith didn’t say anything, he clenched his fist, and golden light enveloped his fist..
