Fire Element Tower penetrates the gray sky, and the runes on the tower are like flowing magma, flickering on and off.

The stones under my feet were so hot that my breath felt like I was swallowing 100-degree hot water.

Zhou Qi has suffered a lot in Gold Element Tower and knows that Five Elements Pagoda is not a good place.

So when he arrived at the door, he did not rush in. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the stone steps outside the tower door, closed his eyes and adjusted his breath for half an hour.

Then he counted the elixirs in his arms again, and found that Restoration Pill still had a lot of them. The amount for three people was enough for him to use.

When everything was ready, Zhou Qi stood up and pushed the door open.

The interior decoration is very similar to that of Gold Element Tower, the only difference is that the sharpness of the metal system is replaced by the scorching heat of Fire Element.

But strangely, it seems that the temperature is not as high as expected.

Zhou Qi did not hesitate and went directly to the trial ground on the first floor.

In the ninth-floor trial field, he had to fight nine more games. This time he decided to save one hand. The Dao-Slaying: Metal Aspect, which had the strongest attack, would not be used until Ninth Layer was polished.

The first level is a puppet that is on fire.

Zhou Qi did not underestimate the enemy, Startling Rainbow Saber cut it down.

But the puppet seemed to have run out of power, and before it even had time to turn around, its huge body was chopped away with a knife and hit the edge of the trial field, making a dull roar.

A crack opened in its breastplate, revealing the dim spirit stone core inside.

The light of the spiritual stone was so weak that it was almost invisible, as if it had been running for too long and was about to run out of fuel.

Zhou Qi frowned slightly.

The puppet was already struggling hard, fluttering and looking like it couldn't stand up.

Zhou Qi didn't hesitate, stepped forward and cut it off with a knife, thus preventing it from struggling any longer.

"Click--"

The core of the spiritual stone shattered.

The puppet's body froze for a moment, and then fell to the ground. It didn't even trigger the self-destruction, but the flame on its body went out with a pop like an oil lamp.

The first level, pass the level.

It takes less than twenty breaths, and the consumption of Spiritual Power is negligible.

Zhou Qi stood there, looking at the cold corpse on the ground, his brows tightening.

Something is wrong.

Gold Element Tower The puppet on the first floor was knocked back with one punch, and it took three cuts to cut it off.

This one from Fire Element Tower... is too weak.

Not even able to self-destruct.

He raised his head and glanced at the stairs leading to the second floor, and walked up without thinking too much.

The second level of the trial ground is a flame arrow formation.

Zhou Qi was already prepared. He was shot by a golden needle on the second floor of Gold Element Tower and was in a state of disarray, so as soon as he entered the door, he held up three layers of protective spiritual light. Startling Rainbow Saber was lying in front of him, ready to block at any time.

However, he waited for three breaths.

There are no arrows.

He took two steps forward.

Still no arrows.

Zhou Qi frowned and released Divine Sense to scan the training ground.

In the corner, an oval metal puppet was leaning crookedly against the wall, with unfired flaming arrows inserted into the holes on the surface.

But the flames on those arrows seemed to be burning and extinguished, and the arrow bodies were dim.

Zhou Qi pressed close to him, and the puppet seemed to sense his Divine Sense. It reluctantly turned its head and shot a few arrows from the holes.

"Whoosh-whoosh-"

The arrow flew out, Zhou Qi didn't even need to block it, and the protective aura couldn't even penetrate three feet, and finally fell to the ground helplessly.

Zhou Qi: "..."

He directly drew his sword and chopped the puppet's spirit stone core into pieces with one strike.

Second level, pass.

The third floor, the fourth floor, the fifth floor...

All the way up, every level is the same.

The guard puppet seems to be mentally retarded, its moves are slow, Spiritual Power is thin, and its defense is weak.

Some puppets can't even stand firmly, and Zhou Qi will fall apart with one cut.

Zhou Qi was almost not injured, and Spiritual Power didn't even consume much, so he just pushed it all the way up.

He finally felt the thrill of a game master breaking through levels.

So smooth and smooth.

On the sixth and seventh floors, the guards' strength became slightly stronger, but it only improved from Foundation Establishment Middle Stage to the level of Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

For Golden Core, Sixth Layer Peak's Zhou Qi, it's still a matter of chopping melons and vegetables.

Ninth Layer.

In the center of the trial field, golden light is gathering.

The same scene as Gold Element Tower.

But after pushing all the way to this point, Zhou Qi also realized that Fire Element Tower seemed to have been drained dry.

This time he did not take the initiative to interrupt its cohesion.

Zhou Qi didn't use much strength at all to break into the tower this time, and it thought it couldn't collect enough data.

The golden light dispersed.

A fiery red puppet stood in the center of the field, holding a long sword filled with flames.

Its body shape is exactly the same as Zhou Qi, and even the indifferent expression on its face is exactly the same.

But that momentum... was too weak.

Zhou Qi was stunned for a moment.

Golden Core Third Layer?

He concentrated on the induction and confirmed it again and again, Early Third Layer of the Golden Core Realm!

The clone moved.

It rushed towards me with its sword, and the flaming sword was wrapped in scorching air waves and struck down with one strike.

Zhou Qi didn't even draw his sword.

He turned sideways to avoid the knife, and punched the clone in the chest with his backhand.

"Bang--!"

The clone flew backwards and hit the protective wall of the trial ground. The armor on the chest cracked several cracks, and golden Spiritual Power escaped from the cracks.

It struggled to get up, raised the knife and charged again.

Zhou Qi didn't give it another chance.

He stepped forward, Startling Rainbow Saber took out its sheath, the sword flashed, and the clone's head flew out.

The golden Spiritual Power poured out from the fractured neck like a dam bursting, spilling all over the floor.

The headless body swayed, and finally stood still, reaching out and making a fist, giving a warrior salute to Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi was silent for a moment, and even though it was weak, he returned the gesture to show respect.

Fire Element Tower prompt sounded:

"Ninth Layer trial passed."

"Reward: five hundred points."

"Trialists can choose--"

"1. Leave the fire tower with points."

"2. Spend five hundred points, enter Tenth Layer, and understand the meaning of Fire Element Origin."

Zhou Qi firmly chose Tenth Layer.

Then he turned around and appeared in a large hall.

Gao Weidu is very similar to Gold Element Tower.

But it seems to be missing some of its original power.

Walking Tower Tenth Layer, golden mist fills the dome, swords and sword shadows fly all over the sky, Metal Element Origin's sharp breath stings the skin.

And here seems to be an empty hall.

There is no flame.

No heat.

No Fire Element Origin.

Zhou Qi stood there, scanning every corner of the hall, and Divine Sense also looked out.

Nothing.

The temperature here is similar to that outside the tower, or even a few points lower than outside the tower.

Moreover, he sensed it carefully and found that the temperature seemed to be dropping at a very small rate.

Mudd, something is definitely wrong.

Zhou Qi cursed in his heart, without Fire Element Origin, this time his heavenly level Cultivation Method would not be able to comprehend it.

I've been here for half a day and the system doesn't prompt me, so I obviously can't understand it anymore.

Zhou Qi was a little helpless, but soon felt relieved.

I no longer have the heavenly level Cultivation Method, but fortunately I can still continue to live.

In three months, I gained hundreds of thousands of proficiency points.

As for why the tower became like this, he didn't bother to think about it.

Thinking of this, he closed his eyes and started running Cultivation Method.

Spiritual Power gushes out from the Dantian and flows slowly along the meridians.

The hall was so quiet that only the sound of his long breathing and the almost imperceptible temperature dropped gradually.
