In such a perilous place, this time truly feels both long and fleeting.
She looked ahead in confusion, then glanced back.
The short flight of stairs proved they hadn't fallen into a time warp, but—
“Is it just my imagination? Why do I feel like those few people ahead are even further away from us?”
Her voice held a hint of daze and shock.
A Lei Jie and the other two, who had been climbing with their heads down, looked up and once again gazed at the four small black dots moving on the mountainside.
“Mo Ci, you’re overthinking it, aren’t you? The distance between us and them isn’t short. How can you tell they’re further away from us due to visual differences?”
Sheng Le spoke with a speechless expression, “And you might not particularly feel our climbing speed, but thanks to You Hu, other Beast Tamers can’t even achieve half our speed.”
As she spoke, she laughed, a triumphant laugh, “So you must be overthinking it.”
A Lei Jie clearly agreed with Sheng Le’s words, “Mo Ci, don’t overthink it. In this Tower Killing, no one can be faster than us. You have to trust You Hu.”
“But...”
Mo Ci was still hesitant. Although what they said made a lot of sense, You Hu had a treasure that countered Tower Killing. Here, even an SSS-level Beast Master might not be as relaxed as them.
But she always felt that her intuition was not wrong. freewebnoveℓ.com
From childhood to adulthood, her sixth sense had almost never been wrong.
“No buts! Since you think we’re slow, then let’s speed up a bit more!”
The indifferent young man was imposing without anger, and his voice held a few hints of impatience.
Feeling his emotions, Mo Ci shrunk her neck like a quail. Although she and You Hu came from the same place and should be the closest, she had always been quite afraid of him.
If it weren't for a direct order from above this time, she wouldn't have accompanied him into Wanmo Territory at all.
“I’m sorry.”
She apologized meekly, lowering her head and diligently climbing the stairs.
And A Lei Jie and the other two indeed didn't take Mo Ci's words to heart. They were too confident in the treasure in You Hu's hand and simply didn't believe anyone could outshine them in Tower Killing.
Another 20 minutes passed.
Mo Ci couldn't help but sneak another glance upwards.
Sure enough, those four black dots were even further away from them!
She absolutely, absolutely could not be mistaken!
But this time she learned her lesson and didn't foolishly stir up the emotions of A Lei Jie and the other two.
“I wonder who those four people up there are? How can they move as if on flat ground in Tower Killing?” Mo Ci’s curiosity about the identity of the four people ahead instantly soared to its highest point.
Unfortunately, they were the ones crawling like tortoises now. Unless You Hu was willing to unleash the treasure at all ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) costs, it was utterly wishful thinking to catch up to the four people ahead in the current situation!
Alas!
They couldn't be caught now.
“Someone’s coming.”
When Mo Ci and the other three appeared at the foot of Tower Killing mountain, Mingxi had already noticed them.
Lin Chen and the other two were startled and looked back. Sure enough, they saw four sesame-sized shadows, and the tactical glasses did not play their due role.
It didn't seem unreasonable for ordinary instruments to be restricted in such a place.
“What a coincidence? I wonder who it could be?”
The three of them had been active in Wanmo Territory for five years, encountering countless wild Transcendent creatures, but only a handful of Beast Tamers, apart from the Blood Hunters, could be counted on one hand.
Lin Chen frowned, “No matter who it is, anyone who can appear in Wanmo Territory won’t be easy to deal with. If we really meet them head-on, it’ll be a fight or a kill. So we’d better speed up and get out of their line of sight as soon as possible.”
Mingxi nodded in agreement.
“Team Lin is right. Although we’re not afraid of trouble, it’s better to avoid it.”
They were not bloodthirsty bandits and did not want to actively attack other Beast Tamers without grievances, but the other party's thoughts were beyond their control.
So, if they didn't want to cause complications, avoiding them was the best way.
“Let’s continue on our way.”
“Okay.”
The four of them were now very familiar with the situation in Tower Killing. Apart from the highly dangerous and 'nutritionally valuable' three ultimate slaughters—Evil Ghost Purgatory, Suffering Sword Senluo, and Human World's Grand Scenery—other killing moves were no match for them.
Interestingly, the other two ultimate slaughters, Suffering Sword Senluo and Human World's Grand Scenery, were both triggered by Mingxi first.
Mingxi reasonably suspected that the consciousness of hai yue devouring bone would lock onto the strongest person within Tower Killing.
Of course, suspicion was just suspicion.
The second ultimate slaughter, Suffering Sword Senluo, also known as the Metal and War Forest.
Once triggered, one would immediately see a hundred thousand broken swords soaring like a swarm of locusts.
There were bronze swords with shamanic prayers carved on their spines, broken blades stained with blood, and broadswords with bone fragments stuck in their nicks...
The overwhelming power and sharp aura reminded Mingxi of Duanjian Sea, which she had once tormented and destroyed.
“Kill!”
Invisible killing intent surged.
A hundred thousand broken swords hummed simultaneously.
Every broken sword seemed to come alive, with strange veins protruding from its shattered body.
Crimson vertical pupils could vaguely be seen opening wide at the guard.
The surging sword energy tore through the sky. The shen guan on Mingxi's ear hummed, as if reminding her to be careful.
Sword pointing at one person!
Sword falling across the sky!
Mingxi instinctively wanted to swing her sword to block.
She was certain her body was agile at that moment, and her heart was filled with an intense, domineering desire for battle.
That greedy, rampant desire was like a surging tsunami, wanting to completely engulf her.
“Fight!”
“Fight!”
“Fight!”
Crazy battle sounds seemed to constantly echo in her mind.
Facing the sky-full of broken swords coming towards her, she felt no fear or retreat at all, not even the slightest bit of the majestic sword might.
“Something’s wrong!”
Mingxi had a clear understanding of her willpower.
Strong and calm, but that didn't mean she could be fearless in the face of everything.
She was human, so naturally she would feel fear and retreat.
So her current emotional state was wrong! Very wrong!
But the time she had to think was too short, and Mingxi couldn't be sure if her suspicions were accurate.
“I’ll risk it!”
Mingxi quickly put on the two Light and Darkness Ni裳 specially prepared by Emerald Green from the Time Realm.
The beautiful girl warrior transformed.
( ︶ . ̮ ︶ ✽ )
The first layer of clothing adds the skill 'Flower Grafting', and the second layer adds the skill 'Life Leaf'.
Although she couldn't summon her pet here, it wouldn't block Transcendent skills like Light and Darkness Ni裳, which were close to symbiotic creatures.
With these two Light and Darkness Ni裳, even if she judged incorrectly, the fault tolerance was very high.
At least she wouldn't be instantly killed by ten thousand swords.
As Mingxi moved, the first broken sword was already before her eyes!
And that urge to swing her sword and cleave the universe became even stronger, almost to the point of overwhelming her.
Her fingernails dug into her palms.
The stinging sensation did not lessen her desire to fight!
“Ding!”
