C95 Start of Dashing Tower

No one made a sound, the Five Elements Sect disciples dejectedly gave up the five spots they had taken up. The Jin Ding Sect's leading Elder looked at the unconscious disciple in anger, secretly regretting his actions.

Now, he had put his underling into the fray and became someone else's target. This was truly bad luck!

Of the five spots that the Five Elements Sect had given up, Zhou Weiqing and Elder Sun had taken two, while Li Yi, Zhao Zilong and Chen Fang had each taken one. Of the five seats that the Five Elements Sect had given up out of, Zhou Weiqing and Elder Sun had sat down two, while Li Yi, Zhao Zilong and Chen Fang had each taken one.

Seeing that everyone had already taken their seats, the Sect Master of the Immortal Sword Sect, Sword Extinguisher, lightly coughed, and slowly said: "Everyone is already here, our sect will just say a few words. Just like the previous sessions, each of the five great sects will send out ten disciples below the Spirit Severing Stage to participate in the tower. The higher the level of the disciples, the more powerful the gate would be. Within the next twenty years, the Exquisite Pagoda's competition will be held at that gate. "

"Here, our sect wishes to emphasize one point. Our five great sects have always been one and the same. During the Tower Battle, we can use any means to fight for victory, but we absolutely cannot allow other disciples to be viciously harmed!"

"Sword Sovereign is right, our five great sects have always been harmonious and will never allow any malicious situations to occur!"

"Don't worry Sword Sovereign. We will instruct our disciples and this will never happen."

The elders from the other four big sects all expressed their opinions, their swords extinguished and they nodded in satisfaction, "Tomorrow is the day to rush to the tower. It is said that there are immortal artifacts on the seventh floor and whoever can reach the seventh floor will have a chance to obtain them. As for the other disciples, let's not talk too much. The guest rooms are already prepared, everyone have a good rest, prepare for tomorrow's Tower Rush competition! "

"..."

"Xiao Yi, aren't you a bit too eye-catching today? I see that the other elders and disciples are looking at you with fear in their eyes."

In the Immortal Sword Sect guest room, Zhao Zilong placed down a soundproof restriction and glanced at Li Yi a few times. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated and could not help but ask.

"That's right. Master did indeed tell us not to be too eye-catching. I didn't want to make a move at first." "But as you can see from today's situation, the Five Elements Sect is clearly making things difficult for us, they are simply provoking us. I must accept their provocation and act as if they are trying to intimidate other people with ill intentions."

Li Yi patted Zhao Zilong's shoulder, signalling him not to worry, "Zi Long, our real combat power is something only we know, and Master is only an estimate. Let me ask you this, if you were to face five late stage Nascent Soul stage cultivators at the same time, would you be able to handle them? "

"What a joke, even if it were ten of them, I would still be able to easily deal with an ordinary late Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, let alone five of them!"

Zhao Zilong gaped for a moment, then smiled.

"Then that's right. Master said that we should try our best not to be too conspicuous, not to abandon the honor of our sect and swallow this humiliation!" "Now that we have Senior Brother Chen and the two Core Formation Senior Brothers of the Qian Sect as allies, as long as we are careful in the first three levels, there should be no problem, what do you think?"

"You're right. I was thinking too much. Heh, why do you think that the higher my cultivation, the less daring I would be? We need to review this, we need to properly review this! "

Zhao Zilong's tightly knitted eyebrows relaxed, his tone also became relaxed.

Li Yi looked at Zhao Zilong who had returned to normal, smiled, closed his eyes and continued to absorb spiritual energy.

Early morning the next day. On the Immortal Pagoda in the depths of the Immortal Sword Sect, the Elders and disciples of the Five Great Immortal Sects had arrived at the foot of the Exquisite Pagoda early in the morning.

The Linglong Immortal Pagoda was an immortal equipment left behind from the ancient times, and it was not able to control its size as freely as its replica. This was because no one could completely refine it, and the five great sects could only barely control it by relying on the techniques passed down since the ancient times.

In the Immortal World, there were some immortals that wanted to take the Linglong Immortal Pagoda, but to no avail. Gradually, the Linglong Immortal Pagoda became a foundation immortal artifact of the Eastern Region and was taken over by the Five Great Sects. Generally speaking, these towers were maintained at the size of a thousand feet tall. Only when they were transferred would one temporarily use a technique to shrink them and take them away.

"Open the tower!"

The Sword Extinguishment Sect's disciples had all arrived. With a loud shout, the ten fingers on his hands moved consecutively as one profound incantation after another was used to attack the door of the Exquisite Pagoda.

With a flash of nine colors, the tightly shut door slowly opened.

"Senior Martial Brother Sun, fellow Martial Brothers, this time, the Dashing Tower is very important. I sincerely hope that you all can come with us."

Li Yi cupped his fists towards Sun Tian Qi and the other disciples of the sect.

"I don't think there's a need for that. Junior brother Li is so powerful. Just him alone is enough to suppress all the other outstanding talents!"

Sun Tianqi glanced at Li Yi, coldly rejected him, then walked towards the door of the Exquisite Pagoda. The disciples of the other sects sneered and followed after him.

"What's wrong with him? I shouldn't have offended him, right?"

Li Yi was a little surprised by Sun Tianqi's attitude. He was not familiar with Sun Tianqi and did not usually have any interactions with him. This was the first time they had come into contact with each other in this competition, so Sun Tianqi's attitude should not have been like this.

"Ah, Junior Brother Li, you don't know this. Junior Martial Brother Sun has always been secretly in love with Junior Martial Sister Linglong, and not only did you marry Junior Martial Sister Linglong, but you also married Junior Martial Sister Bai, who is not one bit inferior to Junior Martial Sister Linglong.

Fan Zhentian from the side laughed as he explained with a hint of ridicule in his voice.

"Eh …"

Li Yi rubbed his nose. So it was because he was envied and hated by others. Alright, being too charming is also an original sin!

Shaking his head, Li Yi said with a bitter smile, "Forget it, there's no need to force anyone. Zi Long and the three seniors, let's go in as well!"

With that, he walked towards the gate of the Immortal Tower. Zhao Zilong and the others looked at each other, secretly laughing and followed him.

It was different from the Linglong Immortal Pagoda ten years ago, the interior of the Immortal Pagoda was very spacious and empty. It was like a hall with corridors at both ends. However, this hall was filled with dense beasts.

Just like the replica, the demon beasts on the first level were also rat-type demon beasts. However, they were not the first level Illusory Demon Mice. Instead, they were low-grade Profound Rank Sky Demon Mice!

"Sky Demon Mouse, a low-grade Xuan Demon Beast, born to be an early Foundation Establishment cultivator, able to reach the early Nascent Soul stage. Its body is extremely strong, and any magic treasure below Earth Grade can't break through its defense. Its speed is extremely fast, able to devour the qi and blood of its enemies to enhance its combat strength!" Be careful, you must not get hurt! "

He had the confidence that he could make it to the passage on the other side without suffering any injuries. Zhao Zilong shouldn't be a problem since their physical strengths far exceeded that of the Sky Demon Mouse, but Chen Fangfang and the other two senior brothers were not so sure.

"Don't worry, these Celestial Demon Mice can't hurt me!" "Junior brother Li, why don't we have a competition to see who can kill more Sky Demon Rats?"

Chen Fangfang drew his sword from his back and drew two sword flowers as he looked at Li Yi, full of fighting spirit.

"That's a good suggestion, I'll also participate. Little Yi, let's have a competition to see who can reach the passage on the other side first and the Sky Demon Mouse that kills the most!"

Zhao Zilong, as an indestructible body, was originally a combative person, and this aroused his competitive spirit. He laughed loudly and summoned his long spear before rushing into the Sky Demon Rats.

"Wave Overlapping Thousand!"

With regards to the Zhao Zilong who suddenly barged in, the Sky Demon Mouse swarm let out ear-piercing shrieks, turning into a series of afterimages that pounced fiercely on Zhao Zilong. However, none of the afterimages could break through Zhao Zilong's spear.

One after another, the Sky Demon Spell was continuously sent flying by the Spirit Spear Thrust, turning into a dense heaven and earth spiritual energy in the air and entering into Zhao Zilong's body.

"Haha, this is great! These Celestial Demon Mice are indeed formed from spirit energy like the spirit beasts in the replica!"

As the spirit energy continued to be absorbed, Zhao Zilong became even more excited. As the shadows of the spear flew out, strong energy spread in all directions and a large number of Sky Demon Rats were minced into pieces.

"Junior Martial Brother Zhao is truly amazing. I can't fall behind either!"

The long sword in his hand shone with a long sword light, and as he waved it, it created a curtain of swords. As long as any Celestial Demon Mouse touched it, they would be sliced into pieces, and if they touched it, they would immediately die, and if they touched it, they would be injured!

"These two guys are really rude!"

Shaking his head with a smile, Li Yi also summoned his spirit sword and charged into the Sky Demon Rats.

"Taiji Golden Sword, Heaven Shaking Secret Art!"

"Taiji Fire Sword, Splitting Character Formula!"

The three of them held their breath, not saving any of the true essence in their bodies. Of course, there was no need to save, since the killed Sky Demon Rats would turn into heaven and earth aura and enter the body of the killer to replenish the consumed true essence. It could be said that the faster they killed, the more of the heaven and earth aura they could absorb.

Spear shadows rolled about as sword qi weaved in the air. The early Nascent Soul stage Sky Demon Rat was sliced in half like wheat, leaving the two late stage Nascent Soul stage disciples speechless.

"Senior Zhang, why do I feel like the two of us have become two servants that don't need to be helped?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. These three junior brothers are all peerless geniuses that are rarely seen in ten thousand years. Although our cultivation is higher than theirs, our fighting strength is not weak at all!" Look at the looks in the eyes of those people around us, which one of them isn't stunned by what they're seeing? "

Zhang Ying bitterly laughed. Being born in the same era as such a genius was a type of great sorrow, because their back view could only forever be looked up to by others.

Fan Zhentian followed Zhang Ying's instructions, and sure enough, the disciples of the various sects couldn't hide the shock on their faces. Some of them had gloomy expressions, and their eyes flickered as they stared at Li Yi and the other two's figures, planning something.
