Ling Qingxue had also passed the second level of the Training Tower. However, her cultivation was only at the Qi Refining Stage, so her mission was to kill a hundred low-level astral beasts. In the space of the Training Tower, there were very few mid-level astral beasts, let alone high-level astral beasts.
When Ling Qingxue was on the second level of the Training Tower, she had encountered a mid-level astral beast. Fortunately, she had discovered it from a distance. Moreover, the terrain was good for hiding, so she had narrowly avoided it. Otherwise, her life would have been in danger on the second level of the Training Tower.
Therefore, when these mid-level astral beasts appeared, Ling Qingxue's expression changed slightly. The difference in size between a mid-level astral beast and a low-level astral beast was very large. Moreover, she had seen one from afar, so she recognized it at a glance.
Xia Ruofei said decisively, "Qingxue, you hide first! I'll deal with them! "
Ling Qingxue naturally understood Xia Ruofei's meaning. Although she didn't know about the existence of the Ring-Tu space, Xia Ruofei had used the Ring-Tu space to protect her once on the sixth level of the Training Tower. She knew that Xia Ruofei had a "protective treasure". In addition, she was also very clear that in this situation, hiding was the best choice. Otherwise, it would be easy for her to drag Xia Ruofei down.
Ling Qingxue was very clear about the speed of the astral beasts, so she nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay! Ruofei, you have to be careful too. You must be careful! "
"Don't worry!" Xia Ruofei said calmly.
Then, with a thought, a suction force came from the Ring-Tu space. Ling Qingxue didn't resist at all and was immediately sucked into the space.
Of course, Xia Ruofei didn't want to expose the existence of the Ring-Tu space, so Ling Qingxue was still kept in a small space that he had set up in the Mountain Sea Territory. The area wasn't large, and there was a white fog everywhere. Ling Qingxue couldn't see the situation around her.
After putting Ling Qingxue into the Ring-Tu space, Xia Ruofei no longer had any worries. He immediately felt relieved.
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. The two flying swords trembled slightly as they aimed at the twenty or so astral beasts that were charging over quickly.
Xia Ruofei didn't directly use the trap and kill array. he also wanted to rely on his own strength to fight with the astral beasts.
Previously, Xia had not encountered those giant ants, so he didn't directly experience.... Xiao Chen had fought a Medial Grade Astral Beast head-on before. Now that he encountered one again, he naturally had a chance to compare.
These astral beasts were as fast as ever. In almost the blink of an eye, they had already rushed in front of Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei didn't hesitate. He used the Floating Duckweed Steps, and the two flying swords shot out at lightning speed, piercing towards the astral beast at the front.
This astral beast was obviously a little afraid of the flying swords, and it quickly changed directions to dodge.
Astral beasts were indeed very agile. They changed directions while running at high speed without any delay.
However, the biggest characteristic of the Gentleman Sword Technique was that it was strange. The attack route was unpredictable, and it was very difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.
Therefore, this astral beast changed directions to dodge to its right, but what awaited it was the tip of the Qu Shuang Flying Sword.
In fact, the Qu Shuang Flying Sword's seemingly fierce attack was just a feint. After it drew an arc, it directly arrived at the front right of the astral beast. At the same time, the astral beast had already changed directions at high speed. It looked like it had sent itself to the tip of the sword.
Xia Ruofei knew that astral beasts had tough skin and flesh, so he didn't hold back at all. He had already used all his strength in this sword attack.
With a pfft sound, the Qu Shuang Flying Sword cut through the tough scales and firm muscles on the astral beast's chest, leaving a huge wound. Blood immediately spurted out.
The astral beast let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground. This sword attack had actually caused it to lose its ability to fight.
Xia Ruofei's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile. He could clearly feel that the power of his attack was much stronger than when he was on the second level of the Tower of Trials.
Of course, the fact that this attack could produce such an effect was also the result of many factors working together.
After Xia Ruofei's cultivation had increased, the increase in the power of his attack was naturally the main factor. In addition, this astral beast was running forward at high speed, which was equivalent to crashing into the tip of the sword at high speed. The damage caused was naturally much greater than when it was stationary.
However, no matter what, this sword attack had greatly increased Xia Ruofei's confidence.
Of course, he didn't dare to relax for a moment because he had only seriously injured one astral beast. The rest of the astral beasts didn't stop moving forward because of their companion's injury. On the contrary, under the stimulation of their companion's blood, their ferocity was aroused, and their speed suddenly increased by a level.
Xia Ruofei quickly fell into a heavy encirclement.
However, Xia Ruofei didn't panic. At this time, the advantage of his greatly improved mental strength was also revealed. Although the astral beasts were extremely fast and were besieging Xia Ruofei, he was always able to rely on his sharp senses and super fast reaction speed to dodge and maneuver in the narrow space. The astral beasts didn't even touch the corner of his clothes.
Not only that, but the Qu Shuang Flying Sword and the Green Traveling Immortal Sword were also elusive. They were always able to seize the slightest opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the astral beasts.
One had to know that when Xia Ruofei first encountered a mid-level astral beast on the second level of the Tower of Trials, he was almost unable to break through the astral beast's defense. However, it was completely different now. Basically, every sword attack left a wound of varying depth on the astral beast's body.
In addition, Xia Ruofei could also find time to attack the astral beasts with his bare hands while dodging. His heavy punches were also very difficult for the astral beasts to block. His heavy punches, which were infused with vital qi, could often cause the astral beasts' internal organs to be greatly shaken, leaving behind internal injuries that were even more serious than external injuries.
Xia Ruofei felt more and more comfortable in the process of fighting.
Whether it was the Gentleman Sword Technique or the Floating Duckweed Steps, he was becoming more and more proficient.
Soon, the astral beasts were fatally injured and collapsed to the ground. As more and more astral beasts lost their ability to fight or even died on the spot, the pressure on Xia Ruofei decreased, and the power of the Gentleman Sword Technique was even more fully displayed.
The astral beasts fell one after another. The Qu Shuang Flying Sword and the Green Traveling Immortal Sword also became faster and faster, leaving behind a series of fatal afterimages in the air.
After about half an hour, there were no longer any astral beasts standing on the square.
Most of the astral beasts had already died, and there were still two or three astral beasts on the verge of death. They had completely lost their ability to fight.
Xia Ruofei waved his hand, and the Green Traveling Immortal Sword let out a sharp whistling sound as it slashed across the necks of these astral beasts, helping them to be completely free.
Xia Ruofei let out a long sigh of relief. Looking at the corpses of the astral beasts all over the ground, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
When he was on the second level of the Training Tower, it was already difficult for him to deal with one astral beast. In the end, he had to use the Trap and Kill Array to complete the mission of killing 100 mid-level astral beasts. Especially when he encountered a high-level astral beast at the end, if not for the help of the array, Xia Ruofei was afraid that even escaping would be a problem. It would be impossible for him to cause any harm to the high-level astral beast.
But now, even if a high-level astral beast appeared, Xia Ruofei had the confidence to fight it. Even if he couldn't win, he would definitely be able to contend with it for a while. As for escaping, it would be even easier.
This was the most direct comparison of Xia Ruofei's strength after breaking through to the Middle-stage of the Gold Core Realm.
He felt that his confidence had increased greatly. After all, in the world of cultivation, strength was the most important thing. The stronger one was, the stronger one's ability to control one's own destiny would be.
Xia Ruofei moved Ling Qingxue out of the Ring-Tu space with a thought.
Ling Qingxue felt that her vision was blurred, and then she returned to the square between the two halls. The first thing she saw was the corpses of the astral beasts all over the ground, and Xia Ruofei, who was unscathed and whose clothes were not even stained with a trace of blood.
Ling Qingxue looked happy and said, "Ruofei, did you kill all these astral beasts?"
Xia Ruofei nodded with a smile and said, "When I was on the second level of the Training Tower, I relied on the array to complete the mission. This time, I was able to kill more than 20 astral beasts with my own strength while being besieged by them. It seems that after breaking through, my strength has indeed increased a lot!"
"That's for sure!" Ling Qingxue said happily, "I remember that in the world of cultivation, Chen Xuan's father, Chen Nanfeng, is a cultivator at the Late-stage of the Gold Core Realm, right? There aren't many cultivators at the Middle-stage of the Gold Core Realm. You have reached the top of the pyramid of the world of cultivation! "
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "That's because the cultivation environment on Earth continues to deteriorate, and everyone has no cultivation resources. There's nothing to be proud of in such a barren cultivation environment! "
"No matter what, you're still one of the top masters in the world. This is not something to be proud of! You're asking too much of yourself! "Ling Qingxue said with a smile.
"What I mean is that our vision should not be limited to the world of cultivation on Earth." Xia Ruofei said, "Middle-stage of the Gold Core Realm may be very powerful in the world of cultivation on Earth, but compared to those powerful seniors, we are just at the beginning! For example, this Tower of Trials. It's hard for me to imagine what kind of cultivation level is needed to create something like this … Also, this mystic realm on the moon makes me even more certain that the power of the cultivation world isn't limited to Earth. Don't forget that a few hundred years ago, those Nascent Soul cultivators and above all disappeared one after another. Where did they go? "
Ling Qingxue nodded thoughtfully and said, "What you said makes sense! I think that this Arcana Realm on the moon may have something to do with the departure of those seniors! "
"So I must do my best to reach the highest level of the Training Tower. Maybe when I get there, I can find out the reason why those seniors left one after another." Xia Ruofei said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's complete the task of the seventh level of the Training Tower first!"
"Okay!"
"Same old rules. If there is an emergency, you must not resist. I will protect you first, then I can deal with it without distraction," Xia Ruofei said.
"No problem!" Ling Qingxue said calmly.
The two of them stepped over the bodies of the star beasts and continued to walk toward the palace of the second level.
Just now, the star beasts had rushed out of this palace, so the two of them did not dare to let their guard down and maintained a high level of vigilance.
Xia Ruofei was also prepared to put Ling Qingxue into the Ring-Tu space at any time.
The two of them stepped into the palace. After entering, they felt that the palace was very quiet, so quiet that it made them feel a little uneasy.
Xia Ruofei protected Ling Qingxue behind him and slowly turned his head to observe the surroundings.
The palace was hundreds of meters high and was supported by sixteen huge bluestone pillars. Looking up, it felt really magnificent.
The ground of the palace was also paved with bluestone slabs, and the entire palace looked very simple and unadorned.
At this moment, Xia Ruofei heard a series of hurried footsteps. Ling Qingxue also heard this sound immediately. The two of them immediately stood back to back and carefully observed the situation in front and to the side.
This hall was very spacious, and the height was so high, so when footsteps sounded, they could hear a very clear echo.
After a few breaths of time, Xia Ruofei finally saw the approaching figure. His eyes suddenly focused and his face became serious.
This was a high-level star beast!
Without saying anything, Xia Ruofei directly put Ling Qingxue into the Ring-Tu space. At the same time, with a thought, he took out the materials for setting up the Trap and Kill Array. With a wave of his hand, he accurately threw the array materials to their respective positions. Then, he threw out the crystals. In just a few breaths of time, Xia Ruofei's Trap and Kill Array was ready.
The high-level star beast seemed to have smelled the blood of the star beast on Xia Ruofei's body. Its bell-like eyes suddenly shot out a ray of light, and its murderous aura was so real that it did not hide it at all.
Xia Ruofei was not in a hurry to start the array. Instead, he directly took out the Blue Traveling Immortal Sword and the Qu Shuang Flying Sword. He stood in front of the Trap and Kill Array and stared at the approaching high-level star beast.
The high-level star beast did not stop, and there was even a trace of disdain in its eyes. It seemed to be saying that the opponent in front of it was too weak, and there was no sense of accomplishment even if he won!
Of course, this high-level star beast did not immediately exert its speed to the extreme. Instead, it stared at Xia Ruofei and walked over step by step.
Xia Ruofei silently used the sword technique. The Qu Shuang Flying Sword flew out first, followed by the Blue Traveling Immortal Sword. The two flying swords attacked the high-level star beast head-on.
After a sound of metal clashing, two shallow white marks were left on the high-level star beast's neck.
High-level star beasts were indeed much more difficult to deal with than mid-level star beasts. Just their defensive ability alone was much stronger.
It let out a roar, and then suddenly accelerated, pouncing in the direction of Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei dodged calmly, and at the same time, he threw a heavy punch at the high-level star beast.
The high-level star beast happened to be at the juncture where it had exhausted its old strength and had not recovered its new strength. It had no time to dodge at all. It could only watch Xia Ruofei's fist getting bigger and bigger in its field of vision, followed by a violent vibration. Although the high-level star beast's head was very hard, it could not withstand the full attack of an intermediate Gold Core stage cultivator. The high-level star beast snorted, and its face showed a dispirited look.
