"Whoosh..."
The Haotian Pagoda continuously burrowed through the soil, making as little noise as possible.
Bai Zihe's heart grew increasingly anxious.
Heavenly Mountain Golden Lotus...
Now, only this main ingredient was missing for the Golden Marrow Pill.
Once he obtained it and cultivated it for a few days within the Kongtong Seal until it was fully mature, the蠱 worms on his little sister could be perfectly resolved.
This made Bai Zihe slightly excited.
"How much further?"
After staying in the Haotian Pagoda for only a short while, Bai Zihe became impatient and asked.
"Still a long way to go."
The little pagoda replied speechlessly.
Bai Zihe felt like a cat scratching at his heart, but he could only wait.
"Forget it, I'll go practice in the Tongtian Pagoda."
He hadn't properly trained since reaching the Mahayana stage.
According to the little pagoda.
Every hundred floors of the Tongtian Pagoda represented a hurdle, and after every hundred floors, the corresponding strength would experience a significant increase.
For example.
Reaching the hundredth floor would be the minimum standard for using ancient divine artifacts.
And reaching the two-hundredth floor would unlock more powerful abilities of ancient divine artifacts, which would be absolutely revolutionary.
It was a pity.
Once he entered the Tongtian Pagoda.
Bai Zihe would be unable to use divine artifacts like the Xuanyuan Sword. At most, at most, he could only use the Zhutian Sword to kill enemies.
Otherwise, he could have progressed faster and further within the Tongtian Pagoda.
Imperial Dragon Mountain.
"Shu la..."
More and more people were gathering here.
However, everyone was waiting, and no one was in a hurry to make a move.
At the beginning.
Old Man Tianjian was indeed enraged and prepared to blast through Bai Zihe's formation and capture him to bring back to the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect.
After all...
Once Bai Zihe was confined within the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect, everything else would be easy to handle.
Whether it was the Xuanyuan Sword or the spirit stones, none of them would escape.
However, what surprised Old Man Tianjian slightly was that his "Heavenly Sword Art," which condensed three parts of his true essence, did not break the formation.
Not only was Old Man Tianjian surprised.
The several elders behind him, the many elite disciples, and even the秃鹰 in the distance were also astonished.
This formation was truly formidable.
Little did they know that Bai Zihe's clone inside was stunned.
Old Man Tianjian's strike consumed a small half of the spirit stones used to set up the formation!
Combined with what 秃鹰 had consumed earlier.
It was already close to half.
If Old Man Tianjian attacked twice more, the formation would shatter completely, and the truth within would be exposed to everyone.
Fortunately...
Old Man Tianjian did not continue.
"Sou..."
"Shu la..."
"Hua..."
As beams of light descended.
Many cultivators rushed to this location.
There were lone rogue cultivators, and also groups of sect experts, but the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect's strength remained the most formidable.
These people...
Upon arriving and seeing the imposing lineup of the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect, they immediately abandoned the idea of monopolizing the spoils.
Then, they each waited on the sidelines.
"Sect Master..."
The Great Elder said with some worry, "More and more people are arriving. Even if we break through the formation, I fear there will be complications."
"You see..."
Indeed.
Right now, Old Man Tianjian could still suppress the crowd.
But if they continued to wait, with more and more people arriving, it would become very difficult for the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect to monopolize everything.
Especially...
With the arrival of masters like Ji Xian Yuan, they might even lose their chance to compete, which was absolutely something that no one in the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect wanted to see.
"Since that is the case..."
Old Man Tianjian nodded slightly, his eyes narrowing.
"Hua la..."
The next moment, Old Man Tianjian flew into the sky, immediately drawing everyone's attention and captivating their hearts.
"Everyone..."
Old Man Tianjian surveyed the surroundings and said loudly, "Since everyone is here for Bai Zihe, there is no need to hide any longer."
"We..."
"It is most important to break through the formation as soon as possible and capture Bai Zihe."
His words immediately garnered everyone's agreement.
"Yes!"
"Let's capture Bai Zihe first, lest there be further complications."
"Come, come, let's break Bai Zihe's turtle shell first, then drag him out." httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Everyone be careful, don't let Bai Zihe escape!"
"We'll guard every direction, Bai Zihe won't be able to escape."
A group of people were clamoring.
Old Man Tianjian was very pleased and said, "In that case, I will unleash my full power to attack!"
"Xiu..."
As the words fell, a sword light was directly slashed towards Bai Zihe's formation.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
This sword strike was full of power, much stronger than before.
When everyone was dismissive.
"Hu la..."
The formation actually shattered just like that.
It also revealed the situation inside – Bai Zihe, and the corpse of Qin Changkong.
"Huh?"
"What's going on?"
"Wasn't Bai Zihe fighting someone?"
"This, what kind of bullshit formation is this, so vulnerable?"
Everyone was stunned.
This was too unexpected, simply unbelievable.
Including Old Man Tianjian, all the masters felt like they had been toyed with by Bai Zihe, their faces burning with shame.
"This..."
"Bai Zihe, what are you up to?"
Old Man Tianjian was stunned for half a second, but quickly reacted and asked in a deep voice.
"What am I up to?"
Bai Zihe said with a chuckle, "I don't know what you're talking about."
His main body had already arrived at the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect's medicinal garden, so this clone could be abandoned at any time. Thus, Bai Zihe had no qualms.
At worst...
He could just self-destruct, it was not a big problem at all.
Being able to stall for a bit of time was better than nothing.
"Your formation..."
Old Man Tianjian's brows furrowed, his face filled with anger, "Good, good, you dare to trick even me, die!"
"Xiu..."
Old Man Tianjian suddenly transformed into a beam of light and charged towards Bai Zihe.
With a hundred zhang still remaining, he unleashed a terrifying sword intent, an intent that could make most people present lose their color.
"You want to kill me?"
Bai Zihe suddenly grinned playfully and said, "No need for all this trouble."
As his voice fell.
He ended his own life.
"Boom..."
This clone exploded on the spot, turning into countless shockwaves that spread in all directions.
This scene.
Everyone was once again stunned.
Bai Zihe actually self-destructed?
What was going on? Bai Zihe self-destructed before the fight even began?
"Not good!"
Old Man Tianjian's divine sense sensed it, and only then did he realize with fury, "This was just a clone of Bai Zihe, not his true body at all!"
Clone?
The words "clone" exploded amongst everyone.
There were countless experts present, most of them in the Mahayana stage, Tribulation Passing stage, and even peak experts like Old Man Tianjian.
Yet, they were held back here by a mere clone of Bai Zihe...
And because of that, Bai Zihe self-destructed, only then was the truth revealed.
This was truly a monumental embarrassment!
Heavenly Mountain Medicinal Garden.
"We've arrived."
The little pagoda's voice suddenly came.
Finally, they were here!
Coincidentally, Bai Zihe had reached the 190th floor of the Tongtian Pagoda, so he simply came out.
A sweep of his divine sense.
Seeing the golden Heavenly Mountain Golden Lotus, his heart couldn't help but surge. The next moment, he plucked it and placed it into the Kongtong Seal!
