Because Elder Three Slaughters suddenly realized... he was injured!The surging Killing Fist Intent contained within the two punches launched by the young man opposite him had actually injured him—a spirit body that had existed within the Trial Tower for thousands of years through a special method!This had never happened before!Not even Ji Wuzong or Duan Yifeng from thousands of years ago had accomplished such a feat, nor had Duan Tianya more than four hundred years ago.Yet now, this young man before him—already gravely wounded, his expression twisted, blood spraying from his mouth as his body was blasted backward—had done it!"The General-Slaying Fist Intent!""The King-Destroying Fist Intent!"Elder Three Slaughters looked at his body, which had become partially illusory. A trace of delight flashed across his deeply moved, aged face."This boy... possesses astonishing talent and comprehension! Not only did he comprehend the first two punches of my Three Killing-Life Fists in an e

Buzz!Outside the Trial Tower, the Perfect Tower Radiance of the seventh floor shot straight into the heavens.As everyone looked at the tower radiance appearing once again on the seventh floor, the shock in the hearts of all the Sacred Path of the Ancients disciples was gradually replaced by a numb sense that it was only natural."The seventh floor has lit up too! Darian Kaelthorn is heading straight for the ninth floor!""What do you think? Can Darian Kaelthorn clear all nine floors of the Trial Tower?""I think there's hope, but the final two floors are definitely unimaginably difficult. They're absolutely not comparable to the previous ones!""It's possible for Darian Kaelthorn to pass them, but as for obtaining Perfect Tower Radiance on the eighth and ninth floors... that's probably unlikely!""No matter what, I'm definitely staying here until I see Darian Kaelthorn come out of the Trial Tower!""Same here! I never imagined something this incredible would happen before the Rankin

Dathric Valen, Chen He, and Volkrin Ashfire's heads rolled across the ground, blood splattering everywhere. Their faces still bore expressions of shock, unwillingness, and utter disbelief.It was as though they simply could not believe they had died just like that!"These three were spies sent by the Extraterritorial Evil Cultivators, who infiltrated the Frostveil Dominion several years ago. This elder uncovered their identities, so naturally I could not allow them to continue living!""I am Elder Hanming. My mission this time is to identify the spies of the Extraterritorial Evil Cultivators hidden among you! Because I know that there are still such spies within your ranks—for example, those who were close to these three before they died!Elder Hanming spoke in a frigid voice. Behind him, his Spirit Core trembled violently as an immense, bone-chilling killing intent spread outward, completely enveloping the surrounding world.Even more terrifying, that icy killing intent suddenly cont

"Hehe... I never imagined we'd actually be discovered! Ah, this is no fun at all!"A mocking smile appeared on Seraphina Moire's face. Her originally beautiful features were now hideously twisted."That's right! Look at this Darian Kaelthorn. He really seems to have regarded us as his friends who would live and die together! Just look at those eyes of his, filled with utter disbelief! Tsk, tsk... this is simply too amusing!"Caelyra wore the exact same expression as Seraphina Moire, smiling brightly.The way the two women looked at Darian Kaelthorn was as though they were admiring an exceptionally entertaining toy.A toy they had kept firmly in their hands, carefully nurturing all this time...And now, it had finally blossomed.Darian Kaelthorn stood where he was without saying a word.Yet inside his heart, it was as though five bolts of heavenly thunder had struck simultaneously, roaring endlessly."Those three, Dathric Valen and the others, were far too conceited. We kept telling th

The figure slowly approaching from the distance...His laughter...His voice...Were incomparably familiar to Darian Kaelthorn—so familiar that they could not possibly be mistaken.Because...It was his own voice!The approaching figure's face, physique, and every single aspect of him were identical to Darian Kaelthorn.Or rather...He was also Darian Kaelthorn.Another Darian Kaelthorn.The only difference was that he wore a white martial robe.Unlike the Darian Kaelthorn he had seen on the Seventh Floor—a glimpse of his future—the Darian Kaelthorn standing before him on the Ninth Floor was neither from the future nor the past.He was the present Darian Kaelthorn."Hello. I am Darian Kaelthorn."The white-robed Darian Kaelthorn stopped before him, wearing a faint smile.Polite and courteous, he actually greeted Darian Kaelthorn.Darian Kaelthorn quietly observed the other version of himself. His eyes flickered as they carefully examined the white-robed Darian Kaelthorn, seemingly sea
