However, if the battle were to continue, there would be no chance of victory whatsoever, and he feared even he would end up losing his life there. Consequently, the Swordless Immortal felt an overwhelming surge of fury in his heart.

Ji Chengzhe thought to himself that things were taking a turn for the worse, yet he dared not halt his steps. Seizing the desperate opportunity, he executed the "Furious Sword Wild Flower Spell," condensing his divine sense to shoot forth thirty-six golden swords. They bloomed like brilliant golden blossoms amidst a resounding clang, spinning and dancing wildly as they lunged straight toward True Immortal Tianbo.

The nine beast souls, however, were far more direct. Epic-level figures could refine them to maximize their own growth.

That trace of fluctuation, though seemingly extremely faint and imperceptible, triggered a sense of warning born from years of life-or-death battles. It caused his sixth sense to flare up, compelling his fingers to grip the handle of the Sun God Hammer a fraction tighter.

At this moment, the crimson flames that had originally covered her body had completely vanished. Her phoenix wings beat wearily as she struggled to remain suspended in mid-air; her slender avian neck remained held high, glaring at the figure fading into the celestial light above the firmament.

"Very well, I have no objections. What about the two of you?" Wang Zhongming was not particularly picky about food. During the tournament, one shouldn't eat too heavily at noon anyway, so whether it was Korean or Chinese cuisine made little difference.

"What a formidable existence! That giant hand from just now, that aura, actually left me incapable of producing even a sliver of a thought to resist! Who on earth was that?" The Swordless Immortal muttered to himself in disbelief.

Jin Guanqing was truly an exceptional young man. Handsome and fair-skinned, he didn't look like someone who knew martial arts at all. Yet, he was exceptionally steady and calm. He handled everything seamlessly; ever since following Huo Qing, he had never given Huo Qing a single reason to worry about any task.

"An engineer corps will come to the base next week to expand your capacity, and new recruits will also be sent here once the expansion is complete. Furthermore, as a reward for you guys, your division won't have to turn in any mission quotas for half a year!" the general stated once more.

Chen Songsheng's vigor remained as vibrant as Wang Zhongming remembered it, but he had to admit that the man had indeed aged, Wang Zhongming thought to himself. Naturally, these were words he would keep to himself.

Ryan looked in the direction pointed out by the Grim Reaper and realized that if that truly was the Palace of Penitence, it was indeed quite conspicuous. Regardless of where one was within Seireitei, that structure could be seen.

While diligently nurturing the Amethyst Crystal Bees, Lin Tianyang had not neglected his own cultivation. Although the Heavenly Demon Body-Refining Technique was extremely difficult to practice, aided by the Bone-Dissolving Pill, Lin Tianyang successfully completed the first layer after thirty years of effort.

Suppressing the fury burning in his chest, Zhu Ganglie walked to the center of the hall, his piercing gaze locking onto Zhao Ziyue's eyes as if fearing he might run away.

Lost in his wandering thoughts, he caught sight of a familiar figure walking toward them with a cigarette in his mouth. The glowing ember flickered in the dark, illuminating the man's handsome and resolute face.

When Lime Pillar saw that Silver Crow had actually managed to wake up at this moment, he was slightly startled before bursting into laughter. He raised his pile driver high once more and smashed it fiercely toward Silver Crow.

Xu Xiaona began drinking from a potion bottle, and Zhangwei did the same. Their health bars could be seen rising within the party interface.

However, Zhao Ziyue was not wearing shoes with patent applications like that. On the contrary, one of the shoes on Zhao Ziyue's feet even had a broken sole. As ill luck would have it, the moment he executed that 45-degree dance step, the sole of his other shoe snapped as well. You have to pay the price if you want to put on airs.

Han Feng sighed. With a heavy "Thud!", he stamped his foot in frustration, turned his head away, and ignored him completely. Clearly, Xiong Kun had failed to grasp his meaning.

Although this was only the third world he had seen, Lin Tianyang already felt his horizons broaden immensely. Before coming here, he could never have imagined that the Spirit Realm harbored such a staggering variety of bizarre and wondrous races.

"You guys are down to just 17 people now, and you're missing an ace-tier player!" Zhangwei looked toward the forest monsters not far away and smiled.

Liu Piaopiao suddenly spoke up, sliding closer to Gu Xi so that her breasts pressed against him, her enchanting gaze brimming with all manner of allure.

Normally, given her overbearing temperament, she would have pulled rank and demanded that someone clear a table for her no matter what. But today she was here to gather information and could not afford to make a scene, so she had no choice but to endure it temporarily.

"Don't go too far. You should know that there are people you cannot afford to offend!" Steward Xu threatened with a cold and sinister tone.

Consequently, the technical staff delayed this design by two days. This meant that the day after Lin Feng's wedding, he would have to log into the game to fight, because the delay by the technical staff was measured in in-game days. For this reason, Yang Xiejian also took a thorough beating from Lin Feng.

Long Aotian wore an air of utter nonchalance; he had already reached the advanced state of viewing wealth as mere dirt, meaning money held no discernible difference from mud in his eyes.

The man's features were also refined and clear. While not peerlessly handsome, his detached and icy temperament made him quite striking.

Suddenly, Gu Xi snapped his eyes open, the light within his pupils flashing like lightning—fierce and piercing.

"Are you going to step aside or not? Fine, very well..." He Rui narrowed her eyes slightly, then laughed out of sheer anger. Uttering a cold "very well," she raised her hand, preparing to lash out with her whip.

"Hehe, wasn't you two looking all over for this place? What's the matter, now that you're here, are you scared?" the old crone said with a chuckle.

"How ferocious!" A middle-aged man watching from the side swallowed hard, his face turning somewhat pale.

"Big sister, you seem to know him quite well. Do you know him?" When Zhou Wen asked this, a trace of unconscious vigilance crept into her gaze. Any female appearing by Gu Zhuoyan's side now was a potential rival in love.

With Li Heng currently in seclusion, the Great Tang had become exceptionally fragile and could be easily obliterated at any moment.

Bai Yisheng dropped Gu Zhuoyan off downstairs. This parting sentiment gave Bai Yisheng the illusion that she was experiencing what it felt like to be in a real romance.

Zhou Quan wore a cold expression, looking somewhat uneasy. He walked over to the cake display cabinet and began to inspect them, his sharp and stern gaze meticulously scrutinizing every single cake design.
