Chapter 237

Even if he synchronized with the origin of the Nine-Star Ice Emperor Scorpion, limited by the influence of the level, he could now at most exert sixty percent of the Ice Emperor Scorpion's combat power.

At once, the pressure received by Long Zhi could be said to have increased quite a bit instantly.

The only thing worth rejoicing about is that the fierce beast in front of him, although possessing Nine-Star combat power, was only a Nine-Star fierce beast of ordinary quality.

And the Ice Emperor Scorpion that Long Zhi synchronized with the origin was a Nine-Star fierce beast of perfect quality. Even if he could only exert sixty percent of the combat power, the several higher qualities forcibly raised Long Zhi's combat power quite a bit.

This led to the fact that in the process of fighting this fierce beast, although Long Zhi found it difficult to end the battle as quickly as in the past, he wouldn't be killed by the other party in seconds.

The battle between the two ultimately fell into a tug-of-war and a protracted war.

But even in such a situation, for Long Zhi, it was still in an unfavorable state.

On the ninetieth floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, the surging magic power constantly surged and spread, restricting the summoning of Magic Card Spirits, which was the biggest means. He could only use the ability to synchronize with the Magic Card Spirit origin, and facing enemies that became more powerful, even if Long Zhi seized the opportunity, the situation was inevitably gradually tilting toward the fierce beast side.

And Long Zhi, because the consumption of magic power in his body was further intensified, was now being chased around by the fierce beast, losing his usual composure.

It was really because facing the terrifying attacks of this fierce beast that was tireless and not afraid of injury, Long Zhi had no way to be composed.

If he could summon Magic Card Spirits, then Long Zhi was confident that he had absolute certainty to pass the ninetieth floor trial of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, and it would be a flawless pass.

But it was not the case right now; he could only synchronize with the Magic Card Spirit origin to fight, and at the same time, he could only synchronize with one Magic Card Spirit origin to deal with it, so even the means of an Emperor appeared to be stretched thin.

Fortunately, the process of synchronizing with the Magic Card Spirit origin had no delay, and skilled Magic Card Masters could achieve seamless switching, otherwise the gap between the two sides would further expand.

Bang!

The magic power in his body appeared sluggish, and Long Zhi's body couldn't help but have a pause. Noticing this, Long Zhi's expression couldn't help but change slightly, and he hurriedly adjusted.

Unfortunately, Long Zhi's movement was still a step slow. A black streamer attacked from an extremely tricky angle, hit Long Zhi's back, and directly blew him away, rolling to the ground.

Since the eightieth floor, whether it was fierce beasts, Shadows, or Shadow Spirits, they no longer relied solely on physical attacks and could use corresponding skills.

Forcibly raising a breath, Long Zhi directly rolled on the ground to dodge the subsequent attacks, but the magic power in his body became sluggish again, and Long Zhi's movement slowed down again.

All kinds of attacks attacked one after another, even if Long Zhi summoned several ice shields around his body in time, these ice shields only had time to block for a few seconds before shattering one after another, revealing Long Zhi inside.

Noticing this, Long Zhi's expression changed wildly, and then he was submerged by the swarming attacks. Violent explosions filled the entire area of the ninetieth floor, and countless smoke and mist gradually permeated.

For a long time, the explosion sound and smoke dissipated, and Long Zhi's figure was no longer visible.

The fierce beast that killed Long Zhi scanned the surrounding space with its eyes, confirmed that there were no intruders here, let out a low roar, and its figure gradually disappeared.

The ninetieth floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower returned to calm again.

……

"According to past experiences, whether it is Long Zhi or Lu Li, they have probably stepped into the ninetieth floor." In the Titan Temple, Tan Huan spoke silently.

Since Ji Chenyang was eliminated until now, nearly an hour had passed. Now hearing Tan Huan's words, everyone's expression changed slightly.

Ninety floors, this is not many times in past batches, and every time it appears, it can be called a sensation.

Without it, just because Magic Card Masters who can reach the ninetieth floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower have the lowest achievement reaching the Sovereign limit, and quite a few Magic Card Masters even promoted to the Immortal Realm!

For example, Li Wei, for example, Tan Huan, these two Immortals present.

Therefore, this sentence of Tan Huan is equivalent to saying that Lu Li and Long Zhi, who are still in the Titan Sanctuary, both have the potential to impact immortality!

From the previous conversation between Tan Huan and Li Wei, everyone in the Titan Temple knew that there were only Lu Li and Long Zhi left in the Titan Sanctuary, continuing to impact in the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

Although this was only Tan Huan's guess, since the Immortal big shot said so, the result was not much different.

For a time, everyone present was envious.

"Look, someone is coming out!" Suddenly, white light emerged, attracting everyone's attention. After all, this meant that one of the two people remaining in the Titan Sanctuary had been eliminated.

They really wanted to know who among Lu Li and Long Zhi would be the first to be eliminated, after all, this was equivalent to another competition between the two.

Even Tan Huan and Li Wei, their gazes were full of curiosity.

Of course, their hearts were still relatively inclined toward Long Zhi, after all, Long Zhi was their Northern Territory Magic Card Master.

"Long Zhi was actually eliminated first!" As the white light dissipated, Long Zhi's figure appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing this scene, quite a few Northern Territory Magic Card Masters' expressions couldn't help but change slightly, and even the Western Territory and Southern Territory Magic Card Masters were full of surprise, but more were gloating.

Long Zhi was the last participant in the Northern Territory. The other party was eliminated now, which meant that the Northern Territory's team impacting the Titan Sanctuary and Heaven-Reaching Tower trial this time was completely wiped out.

444. Breaking Through to Emperor?

Undoubtedly, whether Long Zhi successfully passed the ninetieth floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, such a result is enough to cause a sensation in past batches.

Because this means that in the near future of the Northern Territory, there will be a very high probability of producing an Immortal Realm expert beyond the Sovereign.

But right now, the gazes of everyone present who saw Long Zhi appear were very subtle, especially the Northern Territory Magic Card Masters, who were even more so.

Since Long Zhi was eliminated, the only Magic Card Master left in the Titan Sanctuary was Lu Li.

However, Lu Li is not a Northern Territory Magic Card Master, but an Eastern Territory Magic Card Master!

This means that Long Zhi ended in defeat in his second competition with Lu Li!

And this time, in this Titan Sanctuary trial, on their own turf, in the field they should have been good at, they were fiercely suppressed by the Eastern Territory Magic Card Master. This is definitely not a good feeling.

"In this way, Lu Li is the one who persisted to the end!" Seeing that it was Long Zhi who was eliminated rather than Lu Li, Su Xueyi breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, a flush of excitement rose on her little face.

Although she had full confidence in Lu Li from the beginning, the final result hadn't come out, so even she didn't dare to guarantee it one hundred percent.

"Lu Li is still staying in the Heaven-Reaching Tower?" The result of being eliminated was already set. Long Zhi felt regret, but didn't immerse himself in it, but quickly scanned the surroundings.

Seeing that familiar figure was not by Su Xueyi's side, Long Zhi's eyes shrank fiercely.

As an Emperor, Long Zhi's memory was naturally not bad. Although he didn't pay too much attention to Su Xueyi back then, he had an impression of the young girl and knew that she was with Lu Li.

Since Su Xueyi was still alone, it meant that Lu Li was still staying in the Titan Sanctuary to participate in the Heaven-Reaching Tower trial, and the other party had persisted longer than himself!

What's more, the discussion of the crowd around him just now, Long Zhi heard clearly, so this confirmed that his idea was not wrong.

As for whether Lu Li would purely waste time on a certain floor and not continue to challenge the next floor, this idea only flashed in Long Zhi's mind, and was directly ruled out.

Although the two sides only fought once, Long Zhi believed that Lu Li wouldn't do such a thing, because doing so had no meaning.

After all, even if he stayed in the Heaven-Reaching Tower, it was just a waste of time. He would still be eliminated, and he wouldn't be able to pass just by staying in the Heaven-Reaching Tower and not coming out.

"Could it be that Lu Li also broke through to the Emperor Realm in the Heaven-Reaching Tower?" In an instant, countless thoughts flashed in Long Zhi's heart, and finally he could only think of this possibility.

Because even he himself exploited the loophole of the Titan Sanctuary and Heaven-Reaching Tower to break through to the Emperor Realm, only then could he persist for such a long time.

If Lu Li was still in the King Realm, even if the Lilithmon and WarGreymon held by the other party were stronger than the Ice Emperor Scorpion, in the situation where he could only exert thirty percent combat power, he would definitely still be a notch lower.

Therefore, Long Zhi had to suspect that Lu Li, like himself, broke through to the Emperor Realm in the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

In this way, after synchronizing with the Magic Card Spirit origin, he could obtain more combat power bonuses. Judging from the strength of the Magic Card Spirits held by Lu Li, it was indeed possible that he could persist longer than himself.

It's just that this still made Long Zhi uncomfortable.

Promoting to the Emperor Realm at this age already shows that his talent surpasses ninety-nine percent of people. After all, he has only graduated from the Northern Frontier for a year, and now he has promoted to Emperor.

Others of the same period, such as Ou Hanxiang and Dai Lingyang, are still working hard in the King Realm, and haven't even broken through to High-tier King.

This result, if placed in the past, even if Long Zhi's personality was cold, he would be excited.

But now, a Lu Li has forcibly killed his way out, such a Heaven Academy freshman who is four years younger than himself, yet highly likely to be the same as himself, having already promoted to Emperor.

That is to say, the other party only used such a short time to forcibly erase this four-year gap. Has he lived these four years in vain?

Losing to the same person twice in a row, thinking of his speech in front of Lu Li a few days ago, Long Zhi felt a burst of depression and egg pain in his heart.

……

"I didn't expect that this time it was still Long Zhi who lost." Li Wei looked at Long Zhi, whose gaze changed from time to time not far away, and couldn't help but shake his head.

For such a result, Li Wei also found it a bit hard to accept.

Is this Lu Li the nemesis of Long Zhi? Otherwise, why did Long Zhi not have any good things happen every time he met the other party?

"Actually, for Long Zhi, this is not entirely a pure bad thing." Tan Huan shook her head. "Being able to have a goal to chase, in a sense, is equivalent to giving Long Zhi a motivation for improvement."

Compared to Li Wei, Tan Huan felt that this was quite good. Having a goal to chase, in this way, Long Zhi wouldn't slack off in the future.

Whether for Magic Card Masters or ordinary people, without a goal to chase, one ultimately cannot go far.

"That's true." Hearing Tan Huan's words, Li Wei also nodded. Clearly, he also understood the meaning of this Frost Capital Capital Lord. "However, Long Zhi was eliminated on the ninetieth floor, which means that Lu Li is probably hovering around this floor now."

"It's just that I don't know how far this Eastern Territory Magic Card Master, who has defeated Long Zhi twice in a row, can go in the Heaven-Reaching Tower."

Could this Lu Li be Ku Zimo's nemesis? Otherwise, why does nothing good ever happen to Ku Zimo whenever he encounters him?

"Actually, for Ku Zimo, this isn't entirely a bad thing," Tan Huan shook his head. "Being able to have a target to chase, in a sense, is also equivalent to giving Ku Zimo a motivation to improve."

Compared to Li Wei, Tan Huan actually thought this was quite good; having a target to chase meant Ku Zimo wouldn't slack off in the future.

Whether for a Magic Card Master or an ordinary person, without a target to chase, one ultimately cannot walk very far.

"That's true," hearing Tan Huan's words, Li Wei also nodded, clearly understanding what this Frost Capital Lord meant. "However, Ku Zimo was eliminated on the ninetieth floor, which means Lu Li is probably hovering around this floor as well."

"I just don't know how far this Eastern Region Magic Card Master, who has defeated Ku Zimo twice in a row, will ultimately be able to go inside the Sky-Piercing Tower."

445. Ten-Star Epic: Memories of Thirty Million Years Ago

Strongest Extreme Sword Finishing Move: Overlord Slash!

On the ninety-ninth floor of the Sky-Piercing Tower, a powerful slash containing enough force to corrode everything swept across. All targets hit by the Strongest Extreme Sword Finishing Move: Overlord Slash, whether they were shadows, shadow spirits, or fierce beasts, were all directly severed in two by a single blade.
