Fire Element Tower Tenth Layer.

Three months passed silently in this empty hall.

There is no rising or setting of the sun, no alternation of day and night, only the long breathing sound of Zhou Qi and the low hum of Spiritual Power rushing through the meridians.

Zhou Qi has lost count of how many weeks it has been running.

His consciousness sank deep in his Dantian, watching the Golden Core Realm solidify and expand little by little, from the size of a walnut to the size of a baby's fist, and the golden light changed from soft to dazzling, from loose to solid.

Finally, the last ray of proficiency filled the progress bar.

Golden Core Realm in the dantian shook violently, and the golden light surged, reflecting the entire spiritual sea like daylight.

A stronger Spiritual Power than before spurted out from the Golden Core Realm, pulsed along the meridians to the limbs, washing every inch of muscle and every Root Bone bone.

Late Golden Core Seventh Layer.

Zhou Qi Before he could fully feel the changes in this power, an illusion that was so familiar that it made his heart palpitate came over him without warning.

The golden hall in front of me began to become distorted, blurred, and broken, like a mirror hit by a hammer.

Light came from all directions and engulfed him whole.

Zhou Qi opened his eyes suddenly.

The blazing sunlight shrank his pupils, and a scorching heat wave hit his face. The gravel under his butt was so hot that he could feel the baking force through his clothes.

Fire Element Tower External.

He was teleported out.

Zhou Qi immediately turned over and stretched his whole body, making a crackling sound from his bones.

After three months of no activity, the muscles and joints are in a relaxed state, and the flow rate of Spiritual Power in the meridians has also slowed down.

It will take him a few breaths to get used to this body again.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the dizziness caused by being forcibly teleported, and called up System Panel--

[Current state: Golden Core Seventh Layer (late stage)]

He nodded with satisfaction and was about to raise his head to take another look at the ranking of Dome Screen.

Suddenly!

The strong wind explodes!

An extremely fierce sword intent struck Air-Breaking Slash from behind him, so fast that even the Air-Breaking Slash sound was left behind.

Before the sword reached him, the cold murderous intent had already stung the hair on his back.

Zhou Qi's pupils suddenly shrank, and his body reacted instinctively.

He didn't look back, didn't block, or even think.

He exerted force under his feet, and his whole body suddenly bounced out like a bowstring that was pressed to the limit, and threw himself forward to the left.

Startling Rainbow Saber unsheathed the sword at the same time as he saved it, with the blade lying across his side to protect his ribs.

"Qiang--!!!"

Sparks flew everywhere.

A long sword struck the spot where he had just stopped, and the sword blade scraped against Startling Rainbow Saber, making a harsh metallic friction sound.

The huge force of the impact sent him flying, flipping around in the air. When he landed, he staggered two steps before regaining his balance.

That power...

It's actually much stronger than him!

Zhou Qi raised his head and looked in the direction of the attacker.

Two figures are walking out of the shadows on the side of Fire Element Tower.

A man with a burly figure, a purple-gold brocade robe, and a stern face is clearly Song Yuan, Mid-Golden Core Eighth Layer from the Primordial Hall.

The other person is wearing a dark blue robe and has a sinister look on his face. He is none other than Li Han, Golden Core, Seventh-Layer Mid-Stage of the Primordial Hall.

The two men, one on the left and one on the right, blocked most of his escape route.

Zhou Qi's heart suddenly sank an inch.

Song Yuan held the sword at an angle and looked at him condescendingly.

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, but there was no warmth in his eyes.

"After being a turtle for three days, you finally dare to come out?"

Zhou Qi said nothing, clenched the handle of the knife, and glanced quickly between the two of them.

But this Song Yuan is no match for him, and now there is Li Han who is supporting him.

He forced down the panic in his heart, looked at Song Yuan, and said:

"Have you been waiting for me for a long time?"

His tone was calm, and there was no emotion or anger to be heard.

Song Yuan chuckled, danced a sword flower with his right hand, and took two steps forward:

"Of course! Kill four of my Primordial Hall people in a row. I'm waiting for you. You deserve the respect!"

Zhou Qi also smiled, "Thank you, Primordial Hall, you don't have many enemies with one move, but you are all very capable of escaping!"

Song Yuan's face froze, and the coldness in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Qi became even more intense.

Li Han behind him was gnashing his teeth and wanted to eat Zhou Qi alive.

The few people stopped talking nonsense, the Spiritual Power in Zhou Qi's body surged out like a flood that burst a dam, and the pressure of Late Golden Core Seventh Layer was released without any disguise.

The gravel beneath his feet was blown away by the air waves, the gray robes made a hunting sound, and a dazzling golden light appeared on Startling Rainbow Saber.

Song Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Late Golden Core Seventh Layer?" His voice was low, with a hint of caution.

Li Han has a bigger reaction.

His pupils shrank sharply, and he took half a step back in shock, and his voice changed tone. "How is it possible?! He was no more than Golden Core, Sixth Layer Peak three days ago, how is it possible..."

"He entered Fire Element Tower Tenth Layer." Song Yuan interrupted him, his eyes serious, "There is a difference in the flow of time in Five Elements Pagoda. Three months inside the tower and three days outside the tower, he has been practicing for three months."

This sentence does not comfort Li Han.

It took three months to practice from Golden Core, Sixth Layer Peak to Late Golden Core Seventh Layer.

What kind of freak is this?

Or how is this possible?

You must know that there are huge differences between each level of the Golden Core Realm realm.

He has been practicing for thirty years and has never heard of anyone with such a talent.

Not even his ancestors, not even Immortal Sect!

Zhou Qi did not give them time to continue their discussion.

He moved.

Startling Rainbow Saber swept across, the sword was as bright as a sword, carrying the majestic Spiritual Power of Late Golden Core Seventh Layer, and slashed towards Li Han.

Persimmons should be picked soft and pinched.

Deal with one first, then the other.

Li Han's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly raised his sword to block.

The moment the swords met, he felt an overwhelming force coming from the sword. His jaw went numb and he almost lost his grip on the sword.

The whole person was so shocked that he took seven or eight steps back, each step leaving deep footprints on the gravel ground.

The old wound on his chest was stretched, and the smell of blood filled his throat.

He can't stop it.

He couldn't even block an ordinary frontal sword attack.

Three days ago, he could fight Zhou Qi with dozens of moves without losing.

Three days later, a single blow from Zhou Qi will make him Qi and Blood surge and his old wounds burst.

When the two swords clashed, Song Yuan followed up with a blow.

Raise your hand and slap it with one palm.

The palm wind was fierce, carrying Mid-Golden Core Eighth Layer's strong Spiritual Power, like an invisible wall, hitting Zhou Qi from the side.

Zhou Qi had no time to dodge, Startling Rainbow Saber stood beside him and received the palm forcefully.

"Bang--!!!"

The air wave exploded, and his whole body was shaken several feet. His feet plowed two deep furrows on the gravel ground.

His right arm was numb and his mouth was bleeding slightly.

He stabilized his body and made quick calculations in his mind.

Against Song Yuan alone, he may not have a chance of winning.

Late Golden Core Seventh Layer versus Mid-Golden Core Eighth Layer, there is a whole small difference.

Moreover, the opponent's Cultivation Method, martial arts, and combat experience are far from comparable to Li Han.

What's more, there is a Li Han watching eagerly next to him.

You can't fight hard.

He took a deep breath, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

The Spiritual Power inside the body surged wildly, and nearly half of the Spiritual Power in the Dantian was extracted in an instant, and the golden light on Startling Rainbow Saber instantly rose sharply.

Fragments of sword lights and shadows began to condense in the air, vaguely present, like invisible sharp blades wandering in the void.

The temperature did not change, but the extremely sharp aura made Song Yuan frown slightly.

Li Han's expression changed, and he subconsciously retreated behind Song Yuan.

That's the move.

He had seen this move before and almost died from it.

Zhou Qi holds the knife with both hands, and the golden light condenses, compresses, and solidifies on the blade, like a miniature scorching sun held in his palm.

In the air, countless tiny golden streams of light began to converge towards the blade, as if all rivers were returning to the sea, and as if the entire world was surrendering to this blade.

"Dao-Slaying! Metal Element!"

Startling Rainbow Saber cut it off.

It's not about slashing at a certain person, but rather slashing at the space between two people.

The golden sword light exploded and turned into countless tiny streams of light, like a golden rainstorm, overwhelmingly covering Song Yuan and Li Han.

That sword intention is no longer a single-point lock, but a range coverage.

Each golden stream of light is sharp enough to cut through Jinshi. They come from all directions, cutting the air, cutting the ground, and cutting everything in front of them.

Li Han's face turned pale, and he worked Spiritual Power like crazy, gathering a shield in front of him.

Song Yuan snorted coldly, unsheathed the long sword, the aura on the sword surged, Mid-Golden Core Eighth Layer's thick Spiritual Power weaved an airtight sword net in front of him.

The golden stream of light hit the sword net, making a clanging sound and sparks flying everywhere.

Song Yuan swept away the last few golden streams of light with a sword, raised his head and looked in the direction of Zhou Qi--

There was no one there.

Look further into the distance.

The figure of Zhou Qi is already hundreds of feet away, and is flying towards the northwest at an alarming speed.
