Chapter 1425

This was the fifth floor of Tong You Tower. Everyone who entered Tong You Tower would gather on this floor.

It could be said that this was a place where all the powers converged, including the first ranked Shuntian City and the last ranked Huping City. As long as one moved forward, they would meet here.

Even the 19th ranked Liu Zongcheng had Liu Yuan, who was comparable to a higher life form. Naturally, the higher ranked cities would have truly powerful existences.

Zi Chen had never truly fought with a higher life form, but he already knew how terrifying they were.

From the traces of the battle, Liu Yuan's claim that he could fight 855 rounds with a higher life form was just a joke.

After learning this, Zi Chen continued forward. Along the way, he encountered many ruins and went on a killing spree.

Although he did not gain anything during this time, Zi Chen focused on honing his battle skills and sensing the true strength of higher life forms.

As he passed by a mountain range, Zi Chen saw a huge claw mark. This claw mark pierced through several mountains and deeply imprinted into the ground.

The battle had already ended and a long time had passed, but there was still a lingering aura surging from this claw mark.

Zi Chen could see through the lingering aura of that battle. It was a huge beast claw that tore through space, pierced through the mountains, and imprinted into the ground.

As for the enemy, it had already been smashed to pieces by this claw.

More than ten miles away, Zi Chen saw another mountain that had been pierced through. This time, it was not a beast claw, but a fist aura.

A thousand miles away, a series of mountains had been neatly shaved off. Looking at the traces, it was not caused by a sword, but more like a steel whip or the tail of a powerful beast.

In short, there were many traces of battle here. Some of them made even Zi Chen's heart palpitate when he saw them.

One could imagine that while Zi Chen was searching for opportunities on the ninth floor, a battle between higher life forms had broken out here.

Zi Chen walked through mountains, rivers, and continuous mountain ranges. He saw many empty ruins and traces of battle.

During this time, there were still some remaining guardians who would fight with Zi Chen.

Zi Chen's battle skills improved in battle, and his strength also increased at any time.

Zi Chen was gone for an entire month.

In the trading area, Man Shi had already closed his stall half a month ago because there were no traces of Xue An City cultivators on this floor.

Following that, Man Shi tried to place a bounty on the cultivators of Yanbo Castle, Wanyuan City, and Miao Dongcheng, but the effect was minimal.

All the cultivators from Yanbo Castle had been killed.

As for Wan Yuancheng and Miao Dongcheng, they left after hearing about the feud with Hu Pingcheng and Liu Zongcheng's fate.

Zi Chen and the others had all found suitable king level spirit weapons and were armed to the teeth. There was no longer any meaning in staying here.

A month later, Zi Chen returned. Wu Xie and the others were already waiting for him.

Looking at their bursting spirits, it was obvious that each of them had gained a lot in this month.

"Let's go."

Without saying much, Zi Chen and the others walked toward the exit of this floor and the entrance to the next floor.

…

…

The cultivators on the fifth floor entered the fourth floor. Soon, the forces that stayed on the fifth floor all knew about what had happened there.

Among them were cultivators from Liu Zongcheng, Wan Yuancheng, and Miao Dongcheng.

When the cultivators from the three forces heard this, they were furious.

"How dare a mere Hu Pingcheng challenge our Wan Yuancheng."

"Hmph, how dare they bully our Miao Dongcheng cultivators. Hu Pingcheng and the others must die."

"Kill anyone you see."

The cultivators from the three forces were completely enraged. There were some true experts among them. However, after hearing about the battle of Hu Pingcheng and the others, they became more cautious.

Zi Chen and the others arrived at the fourth floor. Compared to the other two floors, this floor was desolate and dilapidated.

The forest here had collapsed. Many ancient trees were broken, and the mountain peaks were cut off. The power of heaven and earth was very chaotic.

It could be seen that this place used to be a thriving scene, but it was destroyed by a great battle.

Judging from the traces of the battle, it must have been very fierce. There must have been more than one powerful existence involved.

"I wonder what good stuff they found here. How did they end up fighting like this?" Everyone sighed as they looked at the dilapidated environment around them.

They forcibly turned such a beautiful place into a dilapidated state. If they were not enemies, then they were fighting over something.

This was the Domain Manor Realm. Obviously, the latter was more likely.

"Looks like we're late again. The possibility of obtaining good stuff here is very low," Zi Chen said calmly as he shook his head.

"It's fine if we don't have anything. Let's hurry and find the entrance to the lower floor. Maybe we can still make it in time," Man Shi said anxiously.

Zi Chen and the others had gained a lot in the trading area on the previous floor. Even if they did not gain anything here, they would not care.

"There's someone there. He should know where the entrance is," Wu Xie said as he pointed at a human cultivator in the distance.

At that moment, the human cultivator also saw Wu Xie and the others. He was startled. Then, he turned around and left without saying anything.

"Don't go!" Man Shi shouted and chased after him.

However, the cultivator in front of them was not slow. Man Shi could not catch up to him in a short time.

"There must be other people in the place he ran to. Let's follow him." Wu Xie did not wait for a reply and followed closely behind.

Zi Chen looked at the place where the two disappeared and said calmly, "Let's go and take a look."

The group followed them, but they did not move quickly.

The fleeing cultivator was not slow. Man Shi chased after him for a long time but still could not catch up to him.

Obviously, Man Shi was angry that he could not catch up to the other party. He planned to compete with the other party in terms of speed.

"Man Shi, you're really stupid."

Behind them, Wu Xie would provoke him from time to time. Man Shi could not take it anymore.

"Alright, stop." Zi Chen's voice suddenly came from behind. His voice was like a thunderclap.

Wu Xie and Man Shi, who were moving forward, obviously heard Zi Chen's voice. The two of them subconsciously stopped. Then, they turned around and looked at Zi Chen in confusion.

Looking at Zi Chen, Man Shi asked in confusion, "Why did you stop?"

Zi Chen's indifferent eyes were filled with coldness. He gestured for Man Shi to look to the front and said, "Look, didn't he also stop?"

"This …" Sure enough, Man Shi saw that the other party also stopped and turned around to look at him. His expression was very calm. There was not the slightest trace of panic.

"He did it on purpose." Man Shi suddenly realized. Then, he became furious.

Wu Xie also came to his senses, and his face turned ashen.

Obviously, it was not a coincidence that they could meet a human cultivator whose speed was comparable to Man Shi's. It was the other party's intention.

Who would scheme against them? With just a little thought in his heart, he could guess.

"Come out." Zi Chen's gaze swept around. His cold voice resounded through heaven and earth.

However, the heaven and earth were empty. No one appeared. Only Zi Chen's voice echoed.

In front, the cultivator had not left. However, after hearing Zi Chen's words, his expression changed slightly.

The echoing voice disappeared. The heaven and earth were still silent.

"If you have the guts to scheme against me, don't you have the guts to come out?" Zi Chen's indifferent expression contained a hint of ridicule.

Unfortunately, only his voice echoed in the surroundings.

"What are you saying?" The cultivator in front finally spoke.

"It's fine if you don't understand. Can you tell us where the exit to this floor is?" Zi Chen asked coldly.

"It's right in front. If you have the ability, you can go." The cultivator pointed behind him.

"No, it's fine here. It just so happens that I recently had an epiphany. I need to go into seclusion for a few days." As he spoke, Zi Chen sat on the ground. It was as if he really had an epiphany and was going into seclusion.

When the others saw this, they followed suit.

Obviously, at this moment, Shangguan Hong and the others had also guessed Zi Chen's intentions.

Since the other party had come prepared, they had naturally already calculated. After going into seclusion last time, they were full of confidence in their own combat strength.

Zi Chen, in particular, was comparable to a high-level life form.

However, in this world, there was another kind of existence. Although not very powerful, they were definitely not to be ignored. That was the human Array Master.

Once an Array Master set up an Array Master in advance, he would be almost invincible among those of the same level.

Especially after reaching the Domain Realm, a King Array Master would not need to spend time to set up. However, if it really took a lot of time, the power of the King Array Master would naturally be incomparably powerful.

Zi Chen and the others sat cross-legged. It seemed that they did not intend to go forward.

A hint of anger flashed in the cultivator's eyes because they were only a short distance away from the planned destination.

However, the other party did not move forward.

Just as the cultivator did not know how to deal with this matter, an indifferent voice sounded in this world. "As expected of someone who dares to challenge our Ten Thousand Origin City. Not to mention his strength, just his vigilance is already very good."

As the voice rang out, a figure appeared behind the cultivator.

Following the appearance of this figure, a few other cultivators also appeared.

In the blink of an eye, the number of these cultivators exceeded two hundred.

Zi Chen, who had not really gone into seclusion, also opened his eyes. After seeing the cultivators in front of him, he sighed and said, "It seems that another fierce battle is about to start."

"If he only has vigilance, he will still die today if he does not have strength."

In another location, a group of cultivators also appeared. These people represented the city of Miao Dongcheng.

"He killed Liu Yuan and many of our Liu Zongcheng's people. His battle strength is not weak." An obviously angry voice sounded. The people of Liu Zongcheng had also appeared.

The aura that surged around the young man in the lead was even stronger than Liu Yuan's.

From the meaning of his words, it was obvious that he was stronger than Liu Yuan.

The three forces appeared from three directions. It seemed that they had formed some kind of encirclement formation. Unfortunately, Zi Chen did not fall for it and did not move forward.
