Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

The martial artist guarding the eleventh floor possessed powerful cultivation and combat strength, enough to look down upon Ling Xiao.

This wasn’t arrogance, but true confidence.

In his view, Ling Xiao was like a foolhardy challenger, attempting to stop a wheel with the arms of a mantis.

This way, there’s only one path—death!

Ling Xiao took a deep breath, a Dark Demon Sword suspended above his head, then infused with domineering Yin-Yang Elemental Force, stabbed towards the guard.

Dark Demon Sword·Divine Soul Destruction!

Currently, Ling Xiao’s Heavenly Demon Extermination had been cultivated to the realm of Divine Soul Destruction, which was also the maximum power the Dark Demon Sword could achieve now.

He just wanted to test if his sudden fierce attack could shake this Yin-Yang realm tenth-level expert.

Violent darkness aura gathered on the staircase, as if a demon being charged at that guard.

The guard couldn’t help but frown, but then revealed a disdainful sneer.

He still only extended his right fist, punching straight at Ling Xiao.

”Boom!”

A terrifying collision sound exploded in the stairway.

However, surprisingly, the stairway wasn’t destroyed, as if a special energy was protecting the entire Qijing Tower.

Bam!

Ling Xiao was once again sent flying, landing on the tenth floor.

He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

But that guard also took a step back.

”Hey, seems like with my current cultivation, I still can’t defeat a true Yin-Yang realm tenth-level expert.”

Ling Xiao chuckled, showing no sign of discouragement.

Though he lost, it was just a minor internal injury. As he circulated his inner strength, the alcohol power not yet fully converted rapidly surged throughout his body, and his injuries were almost healed.

”Alright, now you know your own limits, so leave quickly, otherwise I can’t guarantee I’ll hold back again.”

The guard looked at Ling Xiao, with some approval.

For a mere martial artist with Yin-Yang Realm Fourth Layer cultivation to push him back a step, this had never happened before.

And with his punch earlier, though he held back, an average Yin-Yang Realm Fourth Layer martial artist would have been severely injured on the spot, unable to stand.

But Ling Xiao not only stood up, he seemed well.

”Backing down is impossible, but I can’t continue playing with the senior, let’s have a fair fight in the future, today counts as using tricks.”

Ling Xiao curled his lips into a sly smile, then his figure flickered and instantly disappeared from the stairway.

”Just an invisibility trick, do you really think you can fool this old man?”

The guard sneered, saying, ”Since you’re stubborn, this old man need not hold back either.”

Suddenly his violent aura turned into a dense aroma of wine, wrapping the entire staircase.

Yet in the next moment, Ling Xiao still escaped his blockade.

”Invisibility trick? Senior, you’re mistaken, this is called the Mystery of the Shadow, a true Mystic Art, transforming completely into the Shadow Body, I’m an actual shadow, you can’t harm me, of course, I can’t attack either.”

Ling Xiao already appeared on the eleventh floor, smiling at the dumbfounded guard, saying.

The guard paused for a moment, then laughed heartily.

”Hahaha, hahaha, good, very good, it’s been a while since I met such an interesting young fellow, you’re quite capable, you can go to the fifteenth floor to attend today’s banquet.”

”Banquet?”

Ling Xiao asked puzzledly, ”I don’t have the strength to go to the fifteenth floor.”

”No worries, the old man says you have the qualification, so you do. Today, Fan Ruohai from the Fan Family invites young martial artists attending the White Tiger Summit.”

The requirement is a cultivation level of at least Yin-Yang realm fifth level, and must be martial artists from the Tianhai Empire.

Of course, martial artists from other places must get the old man’s approval to qualify for entry.”

The guard explained.

”Does the senior value me that much?”

Ling Xiao asked with a smile.

”Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty, the premier young expert of the Dragon and Phoenix Continent, I’m neither deaf nor blind, your reputation on the White Tiger Continent is also notable.”

The guard laughed, ”Go, there you can see the most beautiful scenery and taste the best food in Qijing Tower, which will greatly benefit your cultivation.

Of course, many will also be watching you, hoping to see you make a fool of yourself, so whether you dare to go depends on your courage and mettle.”

”Senior, are you also a martial artist from the Heavenly Dragon Continent?”

Ling Xiao suddenly asked, ”Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, there was a strong expert known as the Wine Immortal on the Heavenly Dragon Continent, who later went to the White Tiger Continent and never returned.”

”Unexpectedly, someone still remembers this old man, but that’s ancient history now. These days, I’m just a doorkeeper for the Fan Family, haha.”

The elder’s expression showed some dejection, revealing a trace of sadness and helplessness.

Ling Xiao observed this, speculating in his heart that something must have happened to the old man, while preparing to call Leng Mei and others up.

Suddenly, the elder spoke again, ”Young lad, White Tiger Continent is unlike the Heavenly Dragon Continent and Divine Phoenix Continent, be careful about everything. Some people who seem like friends may not actually be.”

Ling Xiao was taken aback, then nodded and said, ”Thank you for the reminder, senior.”

Indeed, there are too many smiling tigers in this world; such people are more terrifying than fierce enemies.

”Make way for four honorable guests from the eleventh floor!”

The Wine Immortal’s voice directly carried from the eleventh to the fifteenth floor.

As a result, Ling Xiao’s way from the eleventh to the fifteenth floor was surprisingly unobstructed.

On each floor stood a formidable expert, their cultivation surpassing even the Wine Immortal, yet all seemed weary, radiating a strong sense of resentment and unwillingness.

Looking at Ling Xiao, they actually showed a hint of a smile.

As if Ling Xiao’s arrival was like a spring of water flowing into a parched land for them.

Though it couldn’t revive the entire land, at least it brought some hope.

Ling Xiao didn’t speak to them, but could clearly feel the expectation each had for him.

However, there were also concerns.

He didn’t know why this was.

Nor did he want to find out for the time being.

Because he understood, the most powerful among these experts was a Yin-Yang realm fourteen-level expert, and they couldn’t solve these problems. With his current cultivation, it was utterly impossible for him to solve them either.

Since it couldn’t be solved, there was no need to worry.

The four of them made their way to the fifteenth floor.

Ji Luoyu was extremely nervous.

She had never reached above the eleventh floor of Qijing Tower in her life, and unexpectedly today she could step on the fifteenth floor with Ling Xiao, it truly felt like a dream.

Just as the Wine Immortal said, a banquet was indeed being held on the fifteenth floor.

The guests sat in front of a meter-long wooden table, cross-legged, enjoying fine wine and delicacies.

It could be clearly seen that the food placed on the wooden table were all delicacies Ling Xiao had never tasted before.

Meat of a monstrous beast from the Yin-Yang realm fourteen level!

A fifteen hundred-year-old scarlet fruit!

A fifteen hundred-year-old peach!

And various other delicacies whose names Ling Xiao couldn’t even call out.
