Chapter 85: The Saint

Rumble!

Eighth level of the Holy Tower!

The array formation inside Lu Li's body operated.

From all directions, waves of vast pressure were drawn in, constantly merging into his body.

Body-Array Integration!

Lu Li used his own body as a vessel!

Fusing the external pressure introduced by the array formation, and then, with his ultimate control over the origin, dispersing the pressure into every cell, forming a harmonious unity with the outside world, cleverly achieving a balance between the pressure inside and outside his body!

Unable to harm himself!

In this way, he could walk freely within this pressure.

This was his method of deduction!

This method was not just for use in this Holy Tower!

As long as he could successfully deduce it, he could use it to resist all pressure in the world. Even if a true Saint's pressure descended, he would have nothing to fear!

Inside Lu Li's body!

The five origins operated constantly!

The vast pressure of the eighth level of the Holy Tower poured in continuously.

Lu Li exerted his fused thousand-fold talent to the limit, doing his utmost to control every wisp of origin, using the origin to guide and disperse the vast pressure merging into his body into every cell.

In an instant, his entire body was filled with this terrifying pressure!

Just as his body was about to be blown apart, the external pressure pressed down again!

Internal and external harmony and unity!

Under this cycle!

It actually allowed Lu Li to easily resist the terrifying pressure of the eighth level.

He moved his body and walked easily and freely.

Not far away.

The Sheng Cheng Martial Monarch, Ling Wushuang, and the Martial Monarch powerhouse from the Eight Cities who had just arrived saw this, and all revealed intense shock.

The pressure here!

Had already reached the level of a Martial Monarch who had completed three evolutions in the second stage!

Apart from the unreachable Martial King, even a Peak Martial Monarch would be affected here.

Wanting to stroll as easily as Lu Li!

It was simply impossible!

"How did he do it?"

The Sheng Cheng Martial Monarch muttered in astonishment.

He had already completed three evolutions in the Martial Monarch realm, but facing the pressure gathering from all directions, he was almost unable to move an inch. Seeing Lu Li's situation, he simply couldn't believe it.

Must follow and see!

See how far he could go!

The Sheng Cheng Martial Monarch operated the origin within his body, blocked the terrifying pressure, and followed.

Ling Wushuang spat out a trace of blood.

Even after using his methods, this was the final level he could reach.

He really wanted to keep watching.

But...

His strength no longer allowed it!

Ling Wushuang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the old man beside him.

"Lin Lao, look..."

"Your business has nothing to do with me!"

The old man called "Lin Lao" interrupted him before he could finish.

Then, he flashed away.

"Heh, all I wanted was for you not to participate!"

Ling Wushuang sneered.

He flashed and returned along the original path.

At this moment.

On the highest level of this Holy Tower.

An ancient figure wrapped in chaos suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze was vicissitudinous, as if he could see through the changes of the world. He passed through the layers of the Holy Tower and finally landed on the eighth level.

There, an interesting little fellow seemed to have appeared!

"Hehe, Body-Array Integration, achieving internal and external balance—those so-called powerhouses in the Sheng Cheng have all lived in vain."

The old man chuckled.

He pointed his finger.

A voice containing Dao meaning entered Lu Li's ears.

"Kid, I'll wait for you to come up!"

Wait for me?

Lu Li stopped his figure.

He looked at the two people who had barely managed to keep up behind him and was certain that the voice just now did not come from them.

And at this time, the only one who could transmit sound!

Was the Saint hiding on the twelfth level of the Holy Tower!

"Did you see?"

Lu Li's lips curled slightly.

The Saint's gaze!

To be able to receive such attention from a Saint—this was probably the first time for someone in the Martial Spirit realm, right?

He flashed and charged toward the passage to the eighth level at an even faster speed.

His body was like lightning!

Instantly alarming the two people behind him!

"What!"

The Sheng Cheng Martial Monarch was struck with terror.

Lu Li's speed before was already fast enough!

But he was carrying the terrifying pressure of this eighth level, yet he seemed to be unaffected, and could even move forward at a faster speed. Even a true Martial King might not be able to do this!

His mind was shaken!

The origin within his body immediately lost its defense!

The pressure from all sides surged in, instantly drowning him.

"Forget it, forget it, let's stop here!"

The Sheng Cheng Martial Monarch sighed lightly.

He let the pressure drown him.

The origin within his body moved, and a beam of spiritual light flashed out, sending him out of the Holy Tower.

Outside the Holy Tower!

The pressure weighed down on all sides!

Within a hundred miles, no one dared to get close.

But beyond those hundred miles, every time the Holy Tower opened, it attracted much attention, and even powerhouses from some Super Martial Dao Families would turn their gaze here.

After all, even after a hundred years!

They were still looking forward to the appearance of a miracle!

Hoping someone could find a way!

To ascend to the twelfth level of the Holy Tower!

But the moment a flash of spiritual light appeared on the eighth level of the Holy Tower and a figure was sent out, they all let out a sigh.

This year!

Failed again!

This opening of the Holy Tower!

Among the crowd who entered the Sheng Cheng, only this ancient figure had the most hope of ascending to the twelfth level!

This person was named Zhou Lingxuan!

He was a direct descendant of the Sheng Cheng Zhou Family!

He had already completed three evolutions in the Martial Monarch realm and had the support of the Zhou Family's century of experience in comprehending the Holy Tower. Among everyone who entered the Holy Tower this time, his chance was the greatest!

So even though everyone else had come out before, the onlookers were not surprised at all!

Only the moment he came out did everyone reveal a look of disappointment.

His appearance!

Represented yet another failure for the Sheng Cheng this year!

"Let's go, let's go, failed again this year, let's all disperse!"

"Sure enough, this Holy Tower is the Saint's test; it's not that easy to pass!"

"Indeed, wait for next year. Anyway, the Holy Tower is always there; we can try every year, and there will always be a chance to conquer it!"

The crowd discussed for a few moments.

Preparing to disperse!

But just then, the ninth level of the Holy Tower suddenly lit up, and an even more vast pressure swept in all directions, continuing to envelop the hundred miles around the Holy Tower.

"What!"

Everyone was shocked!

The ninth level of the Holy Tower!

That represented the combat power of a Peak Martial Monarch!

The two people remaining inside really possessed such cultivation!

The Holy Tower opened!

They knew about everyone who entered!

Naturally, they remembered how many people were left inside!

It was just that their attention before had been entirely focused on Zhou Lingxuan, and they hadn't taken the remaining two to heart.

Until those two ascended to the ninth level of the Holy Tower, the huge commotion finally attracted their attention!

Soon, the identities of the remaining two were found!

Lu Li and Lin Xiaoyun!

Forget about Lin Xiaoyun!

Peak Martial Monarch!

He possessed such cultivation himself, so naturally, he could ascend to the corresponding ninth level!

But Lu Li, how could he do it?

In the battle above the Yingbin Ge yesterday, he clearly only had Martial Spirit cultivation, and resisting Wu Shenglie was entirely due to Miao Qinglong's intervention and the deterrence of the Qian Wang Peerless Order.

How could he now charge up to the ninth level of the Holy Tower?

You must know!

In that Holy Tower!

All external forces were useless!
