Chapter 379: Scaring off the middle stage Yuanying
"Hey, I was wondering who the fellow Taoist was who came up. It turns out to be a young man in the Jindan stage!" As Liu Xing just entered the sixth floor, he heard a shrill and sarcastic laugh.
"You are at the Jindan realm and came to break the restriction and enter the sixth level. You must be a restriction master, right? I am not very good at restrictions, so you are here to help me. If you find the treasure, I will give you some benefits." The harsh voice continued.
Liu Xing looked closely and saw a wretched old man sneering at him sinisterly, as if he had Liu Xing in his grasp.
Liu Xing felt that he looked familiar. After careful consideration, he realized that this was the master Nanji Xingjun in Ouyang Laoguai's mind. He had indeed advanced to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, but it seemed that he had only recently advanced. His aura was far inferior to Mao Huzi's.
Liu Xing knew that if he didn't show some real skills when encountering this wretched old ghost, he might not be able to escape. He was eager to save his wife!
"Get lost!" Liu Xing roared fiercely, startling the South Pole Star Lord. Simultaneously, his Soul Sword pierced the other's Soul with lightning speed. Liu Xing's spiritual power rivaled that of a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator. Since the South Pole Star Lord had just advanced to this stage and was lacking in strength, Liu Xing's attack naturally injured his Soul.
"Ah!" The South Pole Star Lord held his aching head and screamed in pain!
While you are sick, I will kill you!
Liu Xing had been ready to go. He used the Ming Wang Jue to its full potential, and his body, which was comparable to a magic weapon, rushed forward. He raised his fist as big as a vinegar jar and smashed it towards the wretched old man's dantian!
The South Pole Star Lord was distracted for just a moment, and Liu Xing, who was not far away, suddenly rushed in front of him. The South Pole Star Lord was so frightened that his soul flew away, and he could only hastily condense a spiritual power to protect his body.
"Ah!" Another painful scream, the South Pole Star Lord spat out a mouthful of blood, flew backwards, and was immediately seriously injured.
Liu Xing was unyielding and rushed towards the South Pole Star Lord with the look of a desperado!
"You lunatic, just wait for me!" The South Pole Star Lord said a cruel word and fled in panic with injuries all over his body.
This wretched old man was very careful about his life. He felt that Liu Xing's spiritual awareness and magical power were even stronger than his own. At the same time, he had been injured by the other party's sneak attack. If he continued to fight, he would definitely not gain any advantage! Moreover, Liu Xing was obviously a man who didn't care about his life. He came to search for treasure, not to fight for his life. So, seeing that the situation was not good, he decisively retreated.
"What bad luck!" Nanji Xingjun spat out a mouthful of blood in frustration, and hurried to find a sparsely populated corner to heal his wounds. These six floors were filled with mid-Nascent Soul stage monsters. Which one of them wasn't stronger than him? And there were several of his mortal enemies here. If he didn't hide well and was spotted by them, it would be even worse.
The wretched old man was deeply frustrated. He had been waiting at the entrance, hoping for an easy target, but Liu Xing, the badass, had injured him instead. He had been on the sixth floor for quite some time, and he was helpless against the palace's restrictions. He couldn't break them, and he couldn't unlock them. So he simply waited at the entrance, but the result was the opposite of what he had hoped for.
Seeing the wretched old man running away, Liu Xing gave up and did not chase him. There were many people in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul on the sixth floor, so it was not suitable for him to stay there for too long. He had better hurry to the entrance to the seventh floor.
Liu Xing had just unleashed a beautiful combination of punches, achieving excellent results, primarily due to Nanji Xingjun's lack of strength. If he had faced a master like Mao Huzi, Liu Xing would have been forced to flee for his life.
Liu Xing felt that Wuyazi's judgment made sense, and Qian'er was most likely taken away by Chen Gong, so he didn't stay on the sixth floor at all, but went straight to the seventh floor, which was the area for exploration in the late Nascent Soul stage.
Arriving at the entrance to the seventh floor, the restrictions here were indeed several times more powerful. However, as long as the formation remained the same, it wouldn't be a problem for Liu Xing. It was like solving a math problem: the same problem, just with larger numbers and a more difficult calculation, but the solution remained the same.
The other old monsters in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul were all trying to break the palace restrictions that they had their eyes on. They had already studied the restrictions on the seventh-level entrance and knew that they could not break it, so they no longer paid attention to this entrance.
Liu Xing used all his brainpower to calculate and finally figured out the answer, breaking the ban and entering.
When he arrived at the seventh floor, Liu Xing broke out in a cold sweat and his face turned pale. It seemed that the amount of calculation required to set up the restrictions at the entrance to the seventh floor was a huge burden for Liu Xing.
He looked around and found that the seventh floor was quiet and there was no sound at all.
"That's strange, where did everyone go?" Liu Xing sat cross-legged on the ground, took the pill and recovered his over-consumed energy.
The next person he has to face is a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. He must be well-rested and careful in dealing with the situation in order to rescue his wife.
After a long time, Liu Xing recovered about 70% to 80%, so he ran wildly on the seventh floor, not missing any corner.
Soon Liu Xing searched the entire seventh floor but found nothing, and there was no sign that anyone had moved or stayed anywhere.
"They must have gone to a higher level!" Liu Xing finally came to the conclusion, and he went straight to the entrance of the eighth floor.
Although there must be very precious treasures in the palace on the seventh floor, what treasures can be compared to his wife? Liu Xing naturally didn't want to waste time here.
The eighth level of the restriction doubled its power, and the calculations became much more complex. Liu Xing was sweating profusely as he calculated, his energy intensely focused. He had to stop midway to rest and take medicine to recover his strength.
"The entrance to the eighth floor can block the late Nascent Soul cultivators from entering. How did Chen Gong and Wei Wei get up there?" Liu Xing couldn't figure it out either. He thought about these questions while taking a break.
"Could there be a senior who has reached the state of Divine Transformation here?" Liu Xing was suddenly shocked.
The Divine Transformation Realm was the pinnacle of the human realm, and Liu Xing couldn't imagine how powerful these people were. He and his wife had no power to struggle against the peak beings of the human realm.
Thinking of the pressure his wife might be facing, Liu Xing was extremely anxious. He wanted to take her place and face life and death together with his wife no matter what.
At the entrance to the ninth floor, Nie Xiaoqian was sweating profusely, her face pale from exhaustion. An entire day had passed, and the ninth floor's barrier remained unbroken. Elder Sun's expression grew increasingly grim. Chen Gong, Wei Wei, and the others were also on pins and needles, daring not to utter a single sound, cautiously waiting nearby, fearing that Elder Sun would strike anyone he disliked.
Nie Xiaoqian had exhausted all her abilities, using every method Liu Xing had taught her, but she could only destabilize the restriction, still a hair's breadth away from breaking it. Her talent for restraints was already among the best in the world, but the Chaos Tower's master was too powerful, using methods from the higher realms that she could never fathom.
Nie Xiaoqian was gritting her teeth and persevering, while Liu Xing was also racking his brains. The couple were both wanderers in the world.
