Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

C170 Atop the Mountain



C170 Atop the Mountain

Qiao Zhiyan shouted a few times, but he did not get any response from Chen Yu. He finally stopped!    

    

Chen Yu knew that Qiao Zhiyan was trying to determine his position through his voice. On this point, Chen Yu naturally wouldn't let Qiao Zhiyan have his way.    

    

Qiao Zhiyan had the strength of the sixth level of the Heavenly Astral Stage and he also came from that so-called Northern Profound Sect.    

    

Therefore, if Chen Yu did not make a sound, Qiao Zhiyan would be paralyzed for a bit, making Qiao Zhiyan think that no one could reach the top of the tower before him!    

    

Time passed, while they waited, Chen Yu continued to adapt to the strong invisible pressure. With the help of the Emperor Bone's Profound Spirit Qi, the powerful parts of the Blood Flame Tyrant Spell started to show themselves again.    

    

Finally, it was time for the third pressure to disappear.    

    

After Chen Yu felt that his body suddenly became relaxed, he immediately leaped up and dashed towards the top of the tower.    

    

The pure zhen qi had been pushed to its peak. The zhen qi around Chen Yu suddenly increased dramatically. It was like a bloody cloud surrounding him as he rushed towards the top of the tower.    

    

The speed of the Wind Transformation Movement had already been pushed to the limit, so Chen Yu swept across several meters.    

    

A few seconds later, Chen Yu's body passed through an invisible barrier and arrived at the top of the tower.    

    

The top of the tower was a platform with a circumference of 30 feet. It was not considered spacious. In the middle, there was a mass of star light flashing. It was extremely magnificent.    

    

It was the Star Soul.    

    

Chen Yu did not feel any danger, nor did he have the time to size up Star Soul. He turned his body and walked to the other side of the tower top and looked down.    

    

A figure quickly rushed up, behind him floated a pair of black Astral Qi Wing, their speed was as fast as ghosts and gods.    

    

It was Qiao Zhiyan. At this moment, his breath was dark and his face was as pale as paper. His spirit was dispirited, his hair was messy, and there were traces of blood at the corners of his mouth. He was trying his best to rush to the top of the tower under the pressure.    

    

In an instant, Qiao Zhiyan was only fifty to sixty feet away from the top of the tower.    

    

In terms of time, Qiao Zhiyan was only three seconds slower than Chen Yu.    

    

At the same time, Qiao Zhiyan also saw Chen Yu. His pale and dispirited expression froze for a moment as his expression became extremely wonderful.    

    

At first, Qiao Zhiyan was astonished and incredulous, then puzzled. Anger and all sorts of other emotions flashed across his face. Finally, all these emotions turned into a cold killing intent.    

    

After taking in all the changes in Qiao Zhiyan's expression, Chen Yu's eyes flashed as he split his legs. The zhenqi in his body circulated to the maximum extent and condensed on his arms.    

    

The pair of wings on Qiao Zhiyan's back suddenly expanded and turned into a pair of bigger wings. Qiao Zhiyan's wings fiercely flapped and then burst open. As a result, his speed increased and he pounced towards the top of the tower.    

    

At the same time, Qiao Zhiyan suddenly slapped his Storage Bag and a dark green light shot out. He stared at Chen Yu with his red eyes, and with a flick of his finger, that dark green light shot out crazily towards Chen Yu.    

    

Chen Yu's expression was grave as four continuous muffled sounds like that of a dragon's roar resounded from all parts of his body. True energy burst out from his fist and transformed into a raging dragon made of scales. The dragon's tail was still in Chen Yu's arm, and the dragon's head was already rushing towards Qiao Zhiyan.    

    

High rank martial art, Howling Dragon Fist, four hiss!    

    

This was the pinnacle of this martial art that Chen Yu could use.    

    

However, that dark green spirit light swept an arc through the air, avoiding the 'Mang Long' Qi that Chen Yu had shot out. It reached him in an instant.    

    

Looking at the tiny bit of spiritual light that was emitting an extremely dangerous aura, Chen Yu gritted his teeth and used his left hand to grab it.    

    

"Xiu!" Chen Yu's palm was in pain as an ice-cold yet dangerous aura permeated his body.    

    

The spiritual light flashed in Chen Yu's palm and tore apart the flesh and bones of Chen Yu's palm. It could pierce through Chen Yu's arm and shoot out at any time.    

    

BOOM *    

    

The Innate Qi raging dragon roared across a distance of over ten feet and accurately crashed into Qiao Zhiyan.    

    

Qiao Zhiyan clawed out with his claw, directly blowing up the zhen qi python that had let out four roars from Chen Yu.    

    

The Innate Qi that Chen Yu had unleashed with all his strength was like a tiny snake in front of Qiao Zhiyan's claws, he had no way to resist.    

    

However, Chen Yu knew that it was enough.    

    

As expected, Qiao Zhiyan, who was crazily rushing towards the top of the tower, appeared sluggish for a split-second.    

    

In the next moment, the entire White Tower gently trembled.    

    

Boundless and wanton pressure followed.    

    

Qiao Zhiyan, who was crazily charging towards the top of the tower in mid-air, felt like he was struck by lightning. Like a lump of metal, he fell down from the top of the tower without being able to take a single step up.    

    

At the same time, Chen Yu's palm was in extreme pain. The light pierced through his palm and shot towards his neck, but it was only about half a foot away. The light dimmed and he fell to the ground like a piece of scrap metal.    

    

As Chen Yu expected, he didn't feel any pressure at all. At the top of the tower, it belonged to the safe zone, and the pressure didn't affect this zone.    

    

Chen Yu stopped in the middle of dodging. He could feel the cold energy spreading from his palm throughout his body, freezing his zhenqi wherever it went.    

    

"A spirit artifact!" Chen Yu, however, looked completely relaxed as he grinned at Qiao Zhiyan.    

    

Qiao Zhiyan had fallen less than three meters from the top of the tower. To be exact, he was only about two meters away.    

    

When there was no such pressure, Qiao Zhiyan could pass through this distance with just a flash. However, it had become a moat in the sky.    

    

Qiao Zhiyan was still in the position where he fell to the ground after getting slapped by someone, he stared at Chen Yu, his eyes seemed to be spewing fire, filled with a crazy bone-piercing hatred. He opened his mouth, seeming to want to say something, but a mouthful of blood rushed out of his mouth and quickly dripped onto the ground, but no sound came out.    

    

At the top of the tower, the pressure had reached an extreme point. Although the sound was not blocked, the trembling of Qiao Zhiyan's chest was affected by the pressure, so he was no longer able to speak.    

    

"You have no chance!" Chen Yu maintained his smile and said.    

    

Qiao Zhiyan glanced at Chen Yu with a stiff expression. He held something in his hand and pressed down with great difficulty on the blood that was dripping onto the stairs.    

    

There are still methods? Chen Yu was slightly surprised, but he quickly recovered.    

    

Even if Qiao Zhiyan still had some tricks up his sleeve, Chen Yu did not think that he could withstand the formless terrifying pressure to the top of the tower!    

    

Chen Yu lowered his head and looked at the object that fell under his feet. It was a sharp tooth the size of a little finger. It was covered with complex runes and had a mysterious aura.    

    

After sizing it up, Chen Yu was sure that this totem was refined from the fangs of some kind of spirit beast.    

    

Withdrawing his gaze, Chen Yu started to channel the Emperor Bone Qi in his body to remove the Qi that had invaded his body after the Spirit Treasure had pierced his palm.    

    

This aura coming from the Spirit Treasure was indeed very difficult to deal with. In terms of quantity, it was very little. However, it formed a fundamental suppression on the true energy in Chen Yu's body, causing the true energy in his body to be unable to contend against it.    

    

However, the moment the Emperor Bone's aura appeared, this aura that came from spirit artifacts became obedient. It was easily dispelled from Chen Yu's body.    

    

Then, Chen Yu started to heal his injuries with the Blood Flame Tyrant Spell.    

    

At this moment, Qiao Zhiyan finally pressed the thing in his hand onto his blood.    

    

A moon-white spiritual light flashed as it extended along Qiao Zhiyan's palm. Under that terrifyingly strong and invisible pressure, it actually formed a thin layer of defense around Qiao Zhiyan's body.    

    

Qiao Zhiyan's face immediately recovered a little. He started to adjust his position, but his movements were still slow and difficult. As he adjusted, blood would occasionally gush out from the corner of his mouth.    

    

After stopping the bleeding from his palm, Chen Yu looked at Qiao Zhiyan's stiff posture with great difficulty. He knew that Qiao Zhiyan could at most survive, but it was impossible for him to carry that invisible pressure to the top of the tower.    

    

Qiao Zhiyan was indeed worthy of being a martial practitioner from a sect. Not to mention his tyrannical strength, he also had more than one spirit weapon with him. Just based on this, if he were to fight against Su Qingfeng, he might be able to kill him easily.    

    

However, Chen Yu found it strange that Qiao Zhiyan's totem could be used here. From this, it could be seen that the sealed totem was only the totem that came from the secret realm!    

    

Without paying any more attention to Qiao Zhiyan, Chen Yu once again shifted his attention to the sharp tooth totem at his feet.    

    

The pointed teeth spirit artifact was tiny in size and sharp. After its spirit light had dimmed, it wasn't very eye-catching.    

    

Thinking about how it instantly lost its attack power when Qiao Zhiyan was under the pressure, Chen Yu was sure that this spiritual tool needed the control of a martial artist's soul!    

    

This meant that the spirit artifact had to have been created by a Profound Dark Stage practitioner at the very least.    

    

The power of this spirit treasure wasn't too great, but if one controlled it properly, it was most suitable to attack the enemy, making it impossible to guard against. On this point, this kind of spirit artifact was actually even harder to come by than saber-type spirit artifacts!    

    

Chen Yu bent over and picked up the spiritual weapon, then threw it into the Storage Bag, taking it as his own.    

    

Then, Chen Yu finally took care of everything at the top of the tower.    

    

The top of the tower was covered in spirit pattern restrictions, all of them giving off a profound aura. However, these spirit patterns didn't have any effect on Chen Yu. Having been on the top for so long, Chen Yu didn't have any special feelings towards these spirit patterns.    

    

He could see the top of the tower clearly. There were only four pillars as thick as an arm on the outside. The three pillars were arranged in a zigzag pattern and were only a foot above the ground. They were respectively positioned at the edge of the tower.    

    

The last one was placed in the middle, three feet above the ground, with starlight floating around it. It was the location of the Star Soul, and was also the first thing Chen Yu saw when he came up.    

    

The four stone pillars were about three feet above the ground and were covered in complex and faint spirit patterns. They faintly gave off an aura that made Chen Yu feel uneasy.    

    

The bottoms of the pillars fit into the floor of the tower, but there was a gap where they met, as if they had gone deep into the interior of the tower.    

    

Chen Yu stared at the Star Soul. In the starlight, Chen Yu felt that something was there, but when he looked carefully, he could not see anything specific.    

    

"Star Soul!" Chen Yu sighed with emotion. He did not go in contact with the Star Soul directly, but instead focused on the three stone pillars outside.    

    

There was something placed on top of each of the three stone pillars!
