Volume 5: Return to Donghua Chapter 53: Ascension Tower
Qi Ji would never be indecisive when in the demon-subduing state.
The final battle between the Golden Swordsman and Mo Daoming, in which the external appearance was violently contracted and condensed on the body surface, was so powerful that Qi Ji could hardly predict it.
In a battle between peerless masters of that level, perhaps he could create some trouble for the golden swordsman by rushing forward with all his strength and fighting for his life.
But the greater possibility is that he will be killed by someone in one blow if he is not careful.
After all, the Golden Swordsman was not the Xuan Ji who was originally a weakling among the fifth-level warriors and was seriously injured and dying that day.
He is a genuine fifth-rank veteran warrior, and has also undergone demonic energy transformation. His strength is by no means weaker than any leader of the seven major forces in the Donghua Continent, and may even be stronger.
The desperate attack that Qi Ji used to kill Xuan Ji after his full outburst might have been just an ordinary attack for the Golden Swordsman.
So he retreated without hesitation, ignoring the deafening roar of fighting behind him.
He continuously maintained his flying speed using the secret of the Wuming God's Wind Flow, flying in a direction away from the battlefield at more than three times the speed of sound.
He made several changes of direction along the way. At an extremely high flying speed, after just a few minutes, Qi Ji had reached a far enough place, and was no longer in the direction that the Golden Swordsman had seen him leave.
In fact, he was still on the Falling Star Plain, but his location had changed to dozens of kilometers away in the opposite direction.
He didn't intend to just leave like that. Instead, he wanted to wait for a while, until the most intense battle between the two fifth-level warriors was over, and then return to wait for an opportunity to take action.
That’s right, not only did he not think about running away, he also wanted to find an opportunity to eliminate his opponent in one go!
He and the golden swordsman are now in a life-and-death situation. Even if he could just walk away, the golden swordsman would be able to find out his identity sooner or later.
Even if the enemy couldn't find him at that time, he wouldn't be able to escape from such a big target as Jiange.
He demolished the opponent's mirage and killed all of its core powerful subordinates. Does he still expect his opponent to be merciful and only target him for revenge?
That's a big evil villain.
…
Just when Qi Ji found a place to hide.
Above the deep pit of the alien demon star where the mirage crashed, in the clouds thousands of meters away.
A giant building complex that is five times larger than the mirage and ten times more luxurious, and looks like a fairy palace in the sky, is floating quietly on a huge floating device.
In the center of the building complex, there is a nine-story tower. On the top floor of the tower, there is a round table with five seats, one of which is empty at the moment.
Four people were sitting at the round table.
An elegant and handsome middle-aged man with white hair and fair complexion.
A violent monk with dark purple skin and muscular build.
A petite purple-haired girl with a cold expression.
A cool beauty with a heroic face and a slim figure.
The four of them lowered their heads in deep thought, remaining silent.
After a while, a man hurried in, leaned next to the cold beauty, whispered a few words into her ear, and then left quickly.
The beauty sneered, raised her head and said to the other three people at the table: "The Golden Swordsman and Mo Daoming are fighting fiercely, and it will take a while to determine the winner. The guy who killed our five commanders and then destroyed the mirage with a special weapon has come back from a distance. He is really bold."
The elegant and handsome middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and said, "The Golden Swordsman might have an accident. After all, he is one of the "Five Supremes" of our Dengtian Pavilion. Do you want to save him?"
The violent monk's voice was hoarse, and his laughter was deep and full of madness. He said, "Want to fight? Let me go. I have long admired the morality of Wuxiang Temple! If it is convenient, how about taking back the head of the golden swordsman?"
The middle-aged man sighed and shook his head, "I'm afraid you are not yet fit to take action. Once you show up, the entire Donghua Continent will fall into panic and gather to kill you, which will affect our plan for the Ascension Pavilion."
The cold-faced girl had lavender twin ponytails. She sneered and said coldly, "You failed to protect the Mirage spaceship built by my grandma. You are so conceited and arrogant. It's better for you to die!"
The violent monk laughed innocently: "Little girl, this "Heavenly Tower" is five times the size of the mirage. Your mechanical skills have already surpassed your grandmother, so why bother about the ruined little mirage?"
The girl remained indifferent. She glanced at the monk and said, "Anchan, your muscles have been trained into your brain. You won't understand even if I tell you ."
The cold and beautiful lady who spoke first also spoke up: "You know, in my opinion, more than 90% of the warriors in this world are extremely evil. I wish I could kill them as soon as possible. When I take action, either I die or both of them die!"
The elegant man sighed, shook his head and said, "Fortunately, the Ascension Pavilion has been able to operate without internal strife until now. Well, let's just wait and see."
The cold beauty sneered, looked at the man and said: "Motian, after saying so much, why don't you take action yourself?"
The middle-aged man called Motian smiled and replied, "Banyuehua, you know, the death of the Golden Swordsman is just one less hindrance for me."
The beautiful Half Moon Flower made a "tsk" sound, as if she was disgusted with the middle-aged man, turned her head and stopped talking.
Everyone fell silent again.
After a while, the girl with twin ponytails turned her head and waved to a handsome man standing quietly behind her: "Teacher Mu."
The handsome man took a step forward: "Master Ci'er, I will follow your instructions."
The girl called Ci'er said, "Teacher Mu, go and kill the guy who destroyed the mirage and bring back his weapon that can cut out light blades. I want to study its structural principle."
"I will follow your instructions." Teacher Mu nodded slightly, then turned and left without hesitation.
Seeing this, Ban Yue Hua said calmly, "Ying Ci, I think that boy was able to survive the Golden Swordsman, so he must have some skills. Aren't you afraid that your respected teacher Mu will be killed by this guy?"
The girl turned her head and glanced at Banyuehua, and said coldly: "You may underestimate my mechanical skills. Teacher Mu has the most advanced magic armor of the winner, so it will be easy for him to kill that boy."
Ban Yue Hua held her chin with one hand, tilted her face, and said nonchalantly: "I really like to see you guys full of confidence, and then get slapped in the face."
Then she added: "Do you know what that boy has done?"
Mo Tian asked with great interest: "Oh? What deeds has he done?"
Banyuehua smiled faintly, and while looking at the girl's expression, she said, "We always thought that Xuanji, who died under the siege of the Golden Swordsman and Sword Pavilion Master Yuxujiang , might have died at the hands of this kid."
When Ying Ci heard this, her eyes trembled slightly.
When Ban Yuehua saw her expression, the smile on her face became even more sarcastic, and then she said the second half of the sentence with a smile.
"This guy named Qi Ji... is very unusual!"
