Under the leadership of Emperor Wu Shi, Yang Qi soon arrived at the Qiankun Tower. Looking at the giant tower in front of him up close, Yang Qi discovered that there was a faint fluctuation of Tao all over the tower. It was obvious that the Qiankun Tower itself was a Taoist weapon!
Wow~
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Yang Qi and the other person. The person was an old man in a linen gray robe.
Looking at the newcomer, Emperor Wu Shi immediately said respectfully, "Grand Elder."
The old man in the linen-gray robe in front of him is the strongest man in Tiangan Palace. He has the cultivation level of a Seven-Star Martial Emperor and is a veteran high-level Martial Emperor!
The elder's eyes fell on Yang Qi. He looked him over for a moment before slowly speaking, "Wu Shi, is this your disciple?"
"Junior Yang Qi, nice to meet the Great Elder." Yang Qi said respectfully.
Emperor Wu Shi looked at the Great Elder and said respectfully, "Great Elder, I'll be in your service for the next hundred years."
In the Qiankun Tower, practitioners can only stay for a hundred years at most, and they cannot leave during this hundred years. Once they leave, it means that the opportunity to enter the Qiankun Tower this time is over. This is why Emperor Wu Shi constantly guided Yang Qi in his practice in the previous thirty years, so that Yang Qi could accumulate a lot and gain more during his time in the Qiankun Tower.
"Since he is your disciple, I will naturally take care of him. However, how much he can gain in the end depends on himself." The great elder said calmly.
“It’s natural.”
Emperor Wu Shi nodded slightly. The Great Elder was only responsible for guarding the Qiankun Tower, but he could not interfere with the internal operations of the Qiankun Tower. At most, he could only give some tips to the practitioners who entered the Qiankun Tower. How much they could gain depended entirely on the practitioners themselves.
"Follow me." The great elder looked at Yang Qi and said.
Hearing the words of the Great Elder, Yang Qi immediately followed respectfully, and then under the guidance of the Great Elder, entered the Qiankun Tower.
The Great Elder led Yang Qi to the depths of the Qiankun Tower while introducing it, "The Qiankun Tower condenses the hard work of the martial emperors of the Tiangan Palace. It can be said to be the foundation of the Tiangan Palace. The practitioners who enter the Qiankun Tower mainly hone themselves through fighting, absorbing and improving themselves."
"Fight?"
Yang Qi was stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't find it strange. Fighting is one of the ways to quickly improve practitioners, but fighting under normal circumstances is extremely dangerous. If it is a fight within a controllable range, the effect of sharpening is naturally self-evident.
"Yes, your opponents are the Martial Emperors of all generations in my Tiangan Palace, and they are all Martial Emperors who have a certain kind of Tao that matches your own. As you make progress, the difficulty will continue to increase, guiding practitioners to realize the Tao and practice." said the great elder.
When Yang Qi heard this, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and he thought to himself, "This way of fighting is somewhat similar to the second test of Emperor Lihuo."
When he was accepting the inheritance test in Lihuo Palace, he encountered a similar test. Obviously, this kind of tempering method should be a reference to the test method in the inheritance place.
However, the test in the inheritance land is time-limited, and the difficulty of the test is also fixed, but the difficulty of the Qiankun Hall increases continuously according to the practitioners themselves, and the guiding effect is more obvious.
"Great Elder, since the difficulty is constantly increasing, why does the Qiankun Tower have as many as nine floors?" Yang Qi asked curiously.
If the difficulty continues to increase, one floor of the Qiankun Tower would be completely sufficient. But now, the Qiankun Tower has nine floors, which seems a bit redundant!
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder couldn't help but explain, "The first three floors of the Qiankun Tower are accessible to the Martial King Realm, the middle three floors are accessible to the Martial Emperor Realm, and the last three floors are accessible to the Martial Emperor Realm."
"What's the difference between the first three levels?" Yang Qi asked quickly.
"The opponent on the first floor is the Seven-Star Martial King, the opponent on the second floor is the Eight-Star Martial King, and the opponent on the third floor is the Nine-Star Martial King!" The elder glanced at Yang Qi and continued, "In history, there are more than just Seven-Star Martial Kings among the practitioners who have entered the Qiankun Tower."
I see!
Yang Qi nodded slightly. It was indeed not easy to cultivate to the high-level Martial King level in a thousand years, but how many years had the Tiangan Palace existed? After countless years of accumulation, even if it took a million years, or even tens of millions of years, to produce a practitioner who could reach the eight-star Martial King level within a thousand years, the number would definitely not be small.
Under the guidance of the Great Elder, Yang Qi soon came to a spacious hall. In the center of the hall, there was a circular pattern over a hundred feet in size.
"As long as you stand on that pattern, your opponent will appear. If you leave the pattern, your opponent will disappear." The elder's eyes fell on Yang Qi and said slowly, "Although the battle will not be life-threatening, some suffering is inevitable. How much you can gain depends on you."
"Junior understands." Yang Qi nodded slightly.
Wow~
The figure of the Great Elder then disappeared. As for the subsequent practice, it all depended on Yang Qi himself.
Whoosh~
After the Great Elder left, Yang Qi's figure flashed and he immediately appeared on the pattern on the floor of the hall. The next moment, a figure solidified in front of him.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
As soon as the figure appeared, he immediately attacked him. Facing the attack from the figure, Yang Qi did not retreat but advanced instead. With a shake of his hand, he immediately blocked the incoming attack.
"Bang~"
The attacks from both sides collided with each other, and with a low muffled sound, invisible energy fluctuations dissipated.
"So weak?"
Yang Qi looked at the figure in front of him and was slightly stunned. Although the Dao fluctuations of the figure in front of him were stronger than his, the combat power he displayed was only that of an ordinary seven-star martial king at the peak. With his current strength, he could naturally resist it easily.
Whoosh~
Just when Yang Qi was stunned, the figure attacked again, and a sharp sword light slashed directly towards Yang Qi.
"Break it for me!"
Facing the oncoming sword light, Yang Qi stepped forward and went straight to meet it.
Boom!
The two sword beams collided with each other, and a loud bang was heard in an instant, and Yang Qi's figure was directly blown back.
"How come?"
Looking at the figure not far away, Yang Qi's face changed. The strength of this figure increased too quickly. In a blink of an eye, he was able to suppress him!
"Is it because of the formation?"
Looking at the figure in front of him, Yang Qi suddenly understood something.
The previous attack was probably because the formation could not fully sense his strength. As his combat power increased, the combat power of the figure also increased accordingly, which allowed it to suppress him and play a guiding role!
After understanding the way the figure simulated his strength, Yang Qi no longer hesitated and fully unleashed his own strength. The figure's strength was indeed improved again. However, the figure only improved his combat power, and his cultivation was still at the peak of the Seven-Star Martial King. His realm of Tao did not change. (To be continued)
