86: Fight again on the eighth floor of Lingtian Tower

Xun Xiuyuan spent five exhilarating hours killing all the Illusory Beasts on the seventh floor of the Ling Tian Pagoda and was currently sitting on the ground recovering his qi and blood.

Congratulations to Xun Xiuyuan for clearing the seventh floor of the Ling Tian Pagoda, acquiring a Shattering Void-grade weapon, the Space Rending Spear, which contains the Law of Space.

A spear-type weapon. Ancestor Xie An seems to use a spear. I wonder if it can be given to him alone after I go out.

Finally, looking at the seven hundred lottery draws, Xun Xiuyuan couldn't resist and once again started his happy lottery time.

The high-ranking officials of the two clans outside the Remains saw that the leaderboard showed the seventh floor had been cleared, and the atmosphere between them became even more tense.

Xun Xiuyuan had a thrilling five hours killing Alien Beasts, but these five hours were an ordeal for the big shots outside.

The spirits of both sides were constantly tense, and a great battle was on the verge of breaking out.

As the number six on the leaderboard changed to seven, the atmosphere on the scene became even heavier, and the air seemed to solidify.

Disciples with lower cultivation had already retreated to Qiulong City, unable to bear the pressure of this place.

Inside Qiulong City.

Ling Qingqian welcomed two special guests: Xie Nanqiao and Bai Xiaoou.

Ling Qingqian directly led the two into the living room, but Xie Nanqiao, being straightforward, spoke from the courtyard.

"Ling Qingqian, can you take us to the entrance of the Remains outside the city? I want to wait for Xiuyuan to come out."

The entrance to the Remains outside Qiulong City had been sealed off. Xie Nanqiao and Bai Xiaoou, seeing that Xun Xiuyuan hadn't come out for several days, became worried and rushed to Qiulong City.

Ling Qingqian knew roughly the situation of the Remains outside the city, only knowing that her father had come out safely. So she replied, "The Remains have been open for almost four days. It should have ended by now. It usually ends in two or three days."

Xie Nanqiao said dejectedly, "Exactly! But it's been almost four days, and Xiuyuan's phone is still unreachable. He definitely hasn't come out yet."

Ling Qingqian thought for a moment and said, "I'll call my dad and ask. My dad has already come out; he just called me to report his safety. I, I casually asked about Xun Xiuyuan's situation, and he said Xun Xiuyuan was still challenging the levels."

Xie Nanqiao immediately caught the key point: "Casually?"

Ling Qingqian was a little embarrassed.

Just then, Xie Lin's voice rang out from outside: "Xiao Nan Qiao, why have you come to Qiulong City?"

Xie Lin, who had followed Ling Feihong into the Ling family, saw the three people chatting in the courtyard and immediately asked.

"Uncle, why hasn't Xiuyuan come out yet? Has he encountered danger inside?"

Xie Nanqiao saw Xie Lin and immediately ran over to ask.

Xie Lin didn't know what to say. After thinking for a moment, he replied truthfully, "Before we rushed back to the city, Xun Xiuyuan had already cleared the seventh floor of the Ling Tian Pagoda, becoming the first person to do so since the Lingtian Relic were discovered."

After hearing this, Ling Qingqian's eyes also sparkled with brilliance.

Xie Nanqiao immediately laughed lightheartedly, "Haha, the small Lingtian Relic are nothing for my Xiuyuan."

Bai Xiaoou didn't know the importance of the Lingtian Relic, nor did she understand what clearing the seventh floor of the Ling Tian Pagoda meant. After hearing Xie Lin's words, she also smiled happily.

Xie Lin looked at the expressions of the two girls, shook his head, and sighed, continuing, "It's precisely because Xun Xiuyuan's achievements are too astonishing that the danger is even greater. The Shattering Void-grade big shots of the Human Clan and the Alien Beast Clan are confronting each other by the Remains. It feels like a great battle is imminent. We simply couldn't bear the pressure there, so we rushed back."

Xie Nanqiao was stunned after hearing Xie Lin's words. Is it that grand?

"The Shattering Void-grade big shots of both clans are confronting each other just because Xun Xiuyuan is challenging the levels? My Xiuyuan is truly amazing."

Xie Nanqiao said this with a proud expression, which made everyone present stunned, wondering what kind of thought process she had.

Bai Xiaoou looked at the proud Xie Nanqiao beside her and said, "Sister Nan Qiao, Xiuyuan is in great danger. As soon as he comes out, he will be in the center of the battle."

Xie Nanqiao only reacted after hearing Bai Xiaoou's reminder.

Her small face immediately became distressed.

Ling Feihong had been silent all this time. Seeing the expressions of the two girls, he had to speak up, "You two don't need to worry too much. Xun Xiuyuan's importance is very clear to the senior ancestors. They will definitely bring him back safely. You just need to wait in the manor."

After speaking, he turned to Ling Qingqian and said, "Qingqian, take them to rest well in the manor, or go for a stroll in the garden, and wait patiently."

Ling Qingqian nodded in agreement, then beckoned the two girls to follow her to the garden in the backyard.

At this moment, Xun Xiuyuan saw his lottery draws reset to zero. However, he hadn't obtained any Po Kong-grade treasure chests or Law fragments, only a Flame Storm item.

Flame Storm: Activates upon qi and blood, instantly erupting. Requires Transcendent Realm to use. After use, an area of ten li (approximately five kilometers) is engulfed in a sea of fire that cannot be extinguished by external forces. Within this ten li radius, those below Shattering Void Realm cannot teleport, and it can cause immense damage to Po Kong Realm cultivators.

Looking at this talisman, Xun Xiuyuan sighed, finding it quite useless. Indeed, it causes immense damage to Po Kong Realm cultivators, but he wouldn't be able to escape either.

Although his defense was strong, it wasn't stronger than a Po Kong Realm's defense, was it?

Shaking his head, he put the Flame Storm into the system backpack. He'd keep it for now and decide whether to use it later.

"Artifact Spirit grandpa, is the eighth floor still the same soul attack?"

Although the Artifact Spirit had many grievances against Xun Xiuyuan, he still strictly followed the rules.

He appeared and said, "The eighth floor is still a soul attack, with a total of twelve thousand eight hundred of them."

He didn't say anything more and disappeared after speaking.

Xun Xiuyuan no longer meditated after the battle and directly entered the eighth floor of the Ling Tian Pagoda.

"Initiate the trial of the eighth floor of the Ling Tian Pagoda."

After speaking, Xun Xiuyuan held his wu hook saber and watched the Illusory Beasts continuously emerge from all directions.

Countless soul attacks once again entered Xun Xiuyuan's mind. The soul stabilizing pearl spun rapidly, fending off the soul attacks from the eighth-floor Illusory Beasts.

Xun Xiuyuan knew that the soul attacks here had become much stronger again, evident from the rotation speed of the soul stabilizing pearl.

Xun Xiuyuan secretly thought: The intensity of the eighth floor is so great, I probably won't be able to pass the ninth floor.

No longer thinking too much, Xun Xiuyuan activated Explosive Ignition Art and directly started killing monsters. The Illusory Beasts on the eighth floor not only had soul attacks, but their attack and defense had also reached the limit of the Immaculate Realm.

Without activating Explosive Ignition Art, Xun Xiuyuan's killing speed was very slow.

Outside.

Li Jun sighed, "This little fellow must have gone to challenge the eighth floor. The seventh floor already took him over ten hours. The eighth floor will probably take at least a day."

Chen Yuan's voice came, "Don't be so nervous. At this moment, we are closer to the teleportation gate. As soon as that kid comes out, just arrange for someone to take him away. Once the target is gone, there won't be much left to fight for in the subsequent battle."

Li Jun nodded in agreement and said, "Brother Chen, as soon as that kid comes out, you take him back to Qiulong City. You taking him is the safest."

Chen Yuan didn't hesitate. He was indeed the best choice, unexposed and very powerful in combat.

Actually, the best choice was Li Jun, but there must be many people from the Alien Beast Clan watching Li Jun.

Wang Yonghua suddenly approached the light gate at this moment and said to Li Jun, "When young friend Xun Xiuyuan comes out, I'll take him away with a teleportation. My combat power is the weakest here, so taking him away won't affect our combat power too much."

Xie An immediately disagreed, "Anyone else is fine, but not you. You have a grudge with Xiao Yuan. Who knows if you'll retaliate."

Wang Yonghua's face darkened, "Am I, as a high-ranking member of the Human Clan, incapable of distinguishing such matters? Do I not know what is important and what is not?"

Li Jun saw the two were about to argue again and said, "I've already arranged who will take Xun Xiuyuan away. You don't need to argue."

Upon hearing this, Xie An immediately stopped speaking.

Wang Yonghua also retreated to the side, pondering in secret. Finally, he had a guess in his heart.

If Li Jun said that, then the one taking Xun Xiuyuan away was definitely not one of the four people present. In that case, for maximum safety, it would most likely be the two from the Chen family or the Wen family, because those two had the strongest combat power and were the safest.
