Chapter 189: News of Su Yutong
At this nearly reckless speed, in a mere half-hour, they crossed the area that Xing Li and the others had spent over a month just barely exploring.
As the three of them continued to delve deeper.
Not long after.
They finally encountered the first Soul Body.
It was a tiger-like creature about three zhang tall, with strength at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage level.
"I'll do it~"
Mu Lingxi's eyes lit up.
Her cultivation had just broken through, and she could use the battle to familiarize herself with her surging power.
Upon seeing this Soul Body, she immediately volunteered and flew in front of Wang Jianqiang.
Her slender finger pointed forward, and a Flying Sword shot out, instantly piercing the Soul Body ahead.
A thick and sharp power exploded, shattering the Soul Body directly into pieces.
A murky bead fell toward the ground.
Mu Lingxi beckoned with her palm, retrieved the bead, and then tossed it to Wang Jianqiang.
"Senior Brother, catch."
Wang Jianqiang smiled, reached out to catch the Soul Jade thrown by Mu Lingxi, flipped his palm, and put it away.
"Continue searching."
Having said that, he flew out first, leading the two women to continue sweeping through this small world at an astonishing speed.
In a mere two months.
With a sweeping momentum, the three of them killed over ten thousand Soul Bodies and obtained over ten thousand Soul Jades.
On this day.
The three were flying in the air.
Wang Jianqiang suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Behind him, Mu Lingxi asked in confusion.
Xing Li also looked at Wang Jianqiang.
"Look over there."
Wang Jianqiang pointed forward.
The two women looked in the direction his finger pointed, and immediately, a bronze portal embedded in the void faintly came into view.
"What is that?" Mu Lingxi couldn't help but ask.
Before Wang Jianqiang could speak, Xing Li at his side suddenly said, "It should be the door leading to the second-floor space of the Remnant Tower."
A door leading to the second floor?
Hearing Xing Li's words, Mu Lingxi's eyes immediately lit up, "The Soul Bodies in the first-floor space are all at the Foundation Establishment Stage; will there be Golden Core Stage Soul Bodies in the second-floor space?"
"If so, will the Soul Jades obtained after killing them also be of higher quality?"
"Very likely." Xing Li's eyes also lit up.
Wang Jianqiang glanced at the two, "You seem to have overlooked one point, which is that the power of the Ancient Remnant Array in the second-floor space may also be greater than on the first floor, and harder to detect."
Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, the two women were stunned.
Xing Li looked at Wang Jianqiang and couldn't help asking, "You aren't confident in seeing through the Ancient Remnant Array on the second floor of the Remnant Tower?"
Wang Jianqiang shook his head and did not respond immediately; his brows were tightly furrowed, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Since entering the first floor of the Remnant Tower, they had flown all the way, and the power of the Ancient Remnant Arrays they saw had become increasingly greater.
From when they first entered the Remnant Tower, it was only barely reaching the Nascent Soul level, to now, the energy fluctuations of the surrounding Ancient Remnant Arrays had already reached the Nascent Soul Perfection level.
It was like this on the first floor.
In the second-floor space, Spirit Transformation level arrays would definitely appear.
And it was highly likely that arrays exceeding the Spirit Severing Mid Stage level existed.
Once it exceeded the Spirit Severing Mid Stage level, it would surpass his current observation limit.
Entering the second-floor space with his current strength carried significant risks.
If he could upgrade the Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze, a Divine-level Talent Supernatural Ability, from intermediate to advanced, the Ancient Remnant Arrays in the second-floor space would naturally be nothing to fear.
Unfortunately, even with the 4 Supernatural Ability Points added by Mu Lingxi's successive breakthroughs.
He only had 8 Supernatural Ability Points on him now.
It was still far from the 16 Supernatural Ability Points required, so he could not upgrade the Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze.
For safety's sake, it was better to wait until his strength increased, or until he gathered enough Supernatural Ability Points to upgrade the Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze to advanced.
Then it would be better to come and brave this second-floor space.
Thinking of this, he looked at Xing Li and Mu Lingxi, "The strength of the Ancient Remnant Arrays in the second-floor space will definitely exceed that of the first-floor space."
"I am not confident in discerning them all; entering it carries great risk."
"We currently have over ten thousand Soul Jades on us, which is enough for now; there is no need to take risks."
"Let's withdraw for now."
Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, the two women nodded.
Without Wang Jianqiang, they wouldn't even be able to penetrate deep into the first-floor space.
Since Wang Jianqiang said it was dangerous, they could only give up for the time being.
Afterward, Wang Jianqiang led the two women and flew rapidly toward the exit of the Remnant Tower.
Seven days later.
The three of them found the exit and left the Remnant Tower.
Another half day passed.
The three of them found the entrance to the Ancient Battlefield and left this Ancient Battlefield through a spatial rift.
"Lingxi, after you entered the Assessment Secret Realm, did you hear any news about Yu Yao and Yutong?"
Hearing the two words "Yutong."
Mu Lingxi was stunned, and only then did he realize that Wang Jianqiang was talking about Su Yutong, not his aunt.
She shook her head, "I haven't heard anything."
Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang nodded, not intending to continue on this topic.
This Assessment Secret Realm was vast, and the wilderness was full of crises.
Even though he possessed the Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze and could ignore most of the dangers in the wilderness, wanting to find two people here.
Was still like looking for a needle in a haystack; it was simply unrealistic.
Not to mention Wang Yuyao and Su Yutong, who had no clues, even Mu Lingxi.
If he hadn't obtained the specific location of this Ancient Battlefield from Long Aoyu's memories.
He would have had to expend a great deal of energy to find this place.
"Yutong?"
"Is the person Daoist Friend Wang is speaking of named Su Yutong?"
Just as Wang Jianqiang was preparing to set off and lead the two of them toward Shenhuo City.
Xing Li suddenly looked at Wang Jianqiang and spoke.
Wang Jianqiang was taken aback and looked at Xing Li, "That's right, her name is Su Yutong."
Xing Li nodded, her Spirit Sense surging out, manifesting an exquisite face in the air, and then she confirmed with Wang Jianqiang again.
"Is it this person?"
Seeing this familiar face, Wang Jianqiang nodded and asked, "That's right. Does the Fairy know Yutong? Do you know where she is now?"
"I don't know her."
Unexpectedly, Xing Li actually shook her head.
Wang Jianqiang was stunned.
Just then, Xing Li's voice came again, "Although I don't know Su Yutong, I have heard this name within Shenmu City."
After finishing, she added, "Shenmu City is the city I stayed in previously."
"There is a high probability that Su Yutong is still in Shenmu City."
Hearing Xing Li's words, Wang Jianqiang's expression brightened.
Originally, asking Mu Lingxi was just a "try and see" attitude; he hadn't expected this Xing Li to bring him a surprise.
Just then, he suddenly noticed that Xing Li's expression seemed hesitant.
His heart stirred, and he focused his gaze on Xing Li, "Fairy Xingli, you seem to have something you want to say?"
Xing Li nodded and continued, "As far as I know, Su Yutong seems to have encountered quite a bit of trouble."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jianqiang frowned, "What trouble?"
Xing Li pondered for a moment and said, "I just said that I know of Su Yutong only because I have heard the name."
"In fact, Su Yutong is extremely famous in Shenmu City; almost every Cultivator in Shenmu City knows her."
"However, her fame was not gained through her own strength, but because of one person."
"This person is Lin Yichen, the number one on the Battle Stele of Shenmu City."
"Lin Yichen?"
Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow, but he did not interrupt Xing Li's words.
Xing Li paused, nodded, and continued, "I am not very clear about the matter between Lin Yichen and Su Yutong; I only know that Lin Yichen seemed to want to take Su Yutong as a retainer, but was verbally humiliated by Su Yutong instead."
"Embarrassed and furious, he issued a kill order for Su Yutong and promised a generous reward."
"When I left Shenmu City, many people in Shenmu City were keeping an eye on Su Yutong; as long as she dares to leave the South City District, many people will definitely attack her for Lin Yichen's reward."
"This is also the reason why I am certain she is still in Shenmu City."
"Because..."
"She doesn't dare to step even half a step outside the South City District of Shenmu City!"
