On the square, watching Lin Yi's figure disappear from sight, Cao Zhu wanted to ask for his Ice Profound Sword, but in the end he didn't dare to speak.
After a long while, the crowd in the square finally came to their senses, and exclaimed in amazement.
"Who is this? How can they be so fierce?"
"That Cao Zhu, a second-level talisman master, couldn't even last three moves against him. He's just too strong!"
"He must also be a rune master from my Flame City, right? But I've never seen him before!"
"Lin Yi, I've seen him at the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce!"
"That's Lin Yi? I heard he single-handedly wiped out the entire Blood Robe Sect! He truly is a formidable figure!"
"..."
On the other side, after leaving the square, Lin Yi and Lin Dong did not stay at the Talisman Master Association for long. They said goodbye to Zi Yue and left the association.
After leaving the Talisman Master Association, Lin Yi took Lin Dong and found an inn to stay at.
After returning to his room, Lin Yi locked the door and took out the three Ice Profound Swords that he had taken from Cao Zhu.
Under the control of his mental power, three Ice Profound Swords floated in front of Lin Yi, emanating a dense chill.
He exhaled, and with a hissing sound, a thin layer of frost formed.
Seeing this, Lin Yi nodded with slight satisfaction, releasing his mental energy to completely erase Cao Zhu's traces of use.
"Whoa!"
Immediately, Lin Yi enveloped the three Ice Profound Swords with his spiritual power. With a thought, the three snow-white short swords spun around him like three bolts of lightning.
The three short swords sometimes crossed and sometimes joined together as one, their sword winds sharp and fierce. Surrounded by a chilling aura, their destructive power far surpassed that of his Shattering Yuan Sword!
"Not bad, it wasn't a wasted effort after all," Lin Yi smiled with satisfaction, and put the three Ice Profound Swords back into his Qiankun Ring.
For the next two days, Lin Yi spent most of his time in his guest room, quietly cultivating and waiting for the arrival of the Tower Battle.
……
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
When the morning of the third day arrived, Lin Yi took Lin Dong, checked out of their guest room, and headed to the Talisman Master Association together.
When Lin Yi and his companion arrived at the Yan City Talisman Master Association again, they found that the number of people in the vast courtyard was several times greater than two days ago.
"We're not too late," Lin Yi said. Not long after Lin Yi and his companion entered the courtyard, Zi Yue's tense and pretty face came into Lin Yi's view.
"Let's go," Lin Yi nodded slightly, said nothing more, and headed directly into the depths of the compound.
Zi Yue and Lin Dong followed closely behind.
A dozen minutes later, the three of them arrived again at the open space in front of the Talisman Master Tower.
By this time, a dense crowd had gathered there, but they were clearly divided into two groups: the Heavenly Fire Talisman Masters Association and the Talisman Masters of Flame City.
In the talisman master team of Tianhuo City, Lin Yi once again saw Cao Zhu, whom he had defeated.
Cao Zhu also noticed Lin Yi, and his expression immediately turned extremely ugly. Then he turned around and whispered something to a handsome man in a silver robe next to him.
"That's Cao Zhu's second senior brother, named Liu Long," Zi Yue reminded Lin Yi in a cool voice.
Lin Yi nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
"Hehe, this must be Brother Lin Yi, right?" Liu Long, the man in silver robes, walked over with Cao Zhu, a gentle smile on his face.
"What happened a couple of days ago was Cao Zhu's recklessness. I hope Brother Lin Yi can forgive him."
"If you hadn't come looking for me, I would have forgotten about it," Lin Yi said calmly, glancing at Cao Zhu.
"Hehe, I'm relieved now," Liu Long said with a sigh of relief, then smiled and said, "Then, Brother Lin Yi, would you be willing to return the Ice Profound Sword to my junior brother?"
"What Ice Profound Sword? Never heard of it," Lin Yi shook his head slightly and said.
Upon hearing this, Cao Zhu's face instantly turned purple, and his eyes seemed to spit fire.
Even Liu Long, who had a smile on his face, stiffened.
"Lin Yi, don't try to deny it!"
Cao Zhu, his face flushed, pointed at Lin Yi and shouted angrily.
"Huh? Did I give you face?" Lin Yi's face turned cold, and with a "whoosh," a cold light flashed, and Cao Zhu's finger was cut off on the spot.
"what!"
Suddenly, Cao Zhu let out a miserable scream.
Liu Long was shocked that Lin Yi would commit violence in public, and he hadn't even noticed Lin Yi's actions. His face immediately turned extremely ugly. "Brother Lin Yi, you've gone too far!"
"You came to cause me trouble, pointed fingers at me, and now you say I've gone too far?" Lin Yi said with a cold smile.
"You were just apologizing for Cao Zhu's recklessness, but now it seems you're all cut from the same cloth! If you want to fight, just say so, stop with the nonsense!"
Liu Long reached out and stopped the furious Cao Zhu, staring coldly at Lin Yi, and slowly said:
"Since we've come this far, we'll see. But Brother Lin Yi, I presume you're also going to participate in the Tower Battle? Hehe, the Tower Battle is quite risky, so please be very careful!"
After saying that, he didn't linger any longer and turned to leave with Cao Zhu.
"Be careful when you're fighting in the tower," Zi Yue, who had witnessed the scene, reminded Lin Yi.
"Can we make a move inside the Talisman Master Tower?" Lin Yi smiled slightly, showing no concern whatsoever.
Zi Yue said, "As long as you can withstand that kind of mental pressure and still have the strength to take action, then it is in accordance with the rules."
Lin Yi nodded slightly and said no more.
Next, Yan Xuan, the president of the Yan City Rune Master Association, announced the rules of the tower battle in front of everyone. After exchanging a few words with Han Yun, the leader of the Tianhuo City Rune Master Association, he opened the gates of the Rune Master Tower.
"The Talisman Master Tower is now open. The Tower Battle begins!"
Chapter 60 You two think you're worthy? [Please continue reading]
Yan Xuan's words were like a bomb, causing the eyes of many talisman masters present to turn red.
Their eyes burned with desire as they stared at the wide-open Rune Master Tower. Finally, someone let out a low roar and charged straight into the tower.
With someone taking the lead, the talisman masters on both sides also hurriedly sprang into action.
The Talisman Master Tower has an excellent tempering and purification effect on mental strength. Even if they can't achieve any good results in the tower battles, at least taking a stroll inside is beneficial to them.
"Let's set off too."
Seeing that both sides' talisman masters had almost all entered the talisman master tower, Zi Yue said to Lin Yi and the other person beside her.
Without waiting for a response from Lin Yi and the other person, she transformed into a purple shadow and swiftly entered the tower.
"Let's go," Lin Yi said to Lin Dong. Then, the two brothers quickly flew towards the gate of the Rune Master Tower.
"Lin Yi, we're counting on you this time. Be extra careful!"
Just as Lin Yi was about to enter the Talisman Master Tower, a faint voice quietly entered his ears; it was Yan Xuan's voice.
Lin Yi nodded slightly, but his figure did not pause at all. Like a willow catkin, he floated lightly into the tower under the gaze of Yan Xuan and the others.
The moment Lin Yi stepped through the gate, he felt a strong spiritual pressure rush towards him, instantly enveloping him. His body then sank slightly.
Lin Yi's footsteps landed on the ground, and he raised his head to look at the first floor of the Talisman Master Tower.
The space inside the tower is about half the size of a plaza, but it's currently quite crowded.
In mid-air within this tower, powerful spiritual energy fluctuations twisted and took shape as if they were tangible. The feeling was like being in a sea of spiritual energy, which made one feel awe.
There were a lot of people on this floor, and many of them were sitting cross-legged on the ground, sweating profusely, clearly struggling to withstand the mental pressure here.
However, Lin Yi did not find Cao Zhu, Liu Long, Zi Yue, and the others. In addition, some people resisted the mental pressure of the first level and were flying excitedly toward the center of the tower, where there was a passage to the second level.
Lin Yi closed his eyes slightly, feeling an invisible wave surging from all directions.
That fluctuation was also a kind of spiritual power, but it was terrifyingly pure. This spiritual power, like light, swept across the space inside the tower, and everyone here was included in that fluctuation.
Lin Yi let the fluctuations scan through his body, and then he felt the fluctuations appear directly in his Niwan Palace and sweep over the three natal spirit talismans.
"Buzz!"
The instant the wave swept over the three natal spirit talismans, Lin Yi clearly felt that the talismans trembled slightly and their color became brighter.
It felt as if some impurities adhering to the talisman had been quietly removed!
Although he didn't feel a particularly strong increase in power, Lin Yi could clearly tell that his natal spirit talisman had become more refined...
"There is an invisible spiritual fluctuation within this Talisman Master Tower that can cleanse the spirit. Choose the appropriate level based on your own tolerance to refine your spirit. I'll be going now," Lin Yi said to Lin Dong after a while, opening his eyes.
Lin Dong nodded and said, "Yes, big brother, you don't need to worry about me. I will do what I can."
Lin Yi nodded slightly, and without further delay, he lightly touched the ground with his toes and sprinted away. His speed drew envious glances from many onlookers.
They could barely take a step here, while Lin Yi could run freely. The difference between them was too great.
Lin Yi was extremely fast, and in about half a minute he reached the second floor of the Talisman Master Tower. However, he did not stop, but continued to the third floor.
Upon reaching the fourth level, Lin Yi encountered a battle between rune masters from Yan City and Tianhuo City. He casually lent a hand to them, helping the Yan City rune masters to victory, and then continued on to the fifth level.
The mental pressure on the fifth floor was almost double that of the previous floors, but it didn't put any pressure on Lin Yi. He continued walking steadily toward the passage to the sixth floor.
When he arrived at the passage, he saw two figures sitting cross-legged.
These two men were Cao Zhu and Liu Long from the Talisman Masters Association of Tianhuo City.
At this moment, the two men stared coldly at Lin Yi, who had appeared in their field of vision. Cao Zhu's fist was clenched so tightly that it cracked.
Liu Long stared at Lin Yi with a smile, his soft, feminine voice echoing in the empty tower.
"Brother Lin Yi, I warned you beforehand that the Tower Fighting is dangerous, so please be very careful."
"Kid, since you won't listen to our polite offer, don't blame us," Cao Zhu said with a sneer as he looked at Lin Yi, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes.
"You two think you're worthy?"
Lin Yi glanced at the two of them with disdain, his voice calm.
"Since you are so stubborn, then don't blame us for being ruthless!" Liu Long's face darkened when he saw Lin Yi's appearance. He stood up, waved his hand, and a fiery red sword shadow flew out from his Qiankun bag.
As soon as the fiery red sword shadow appeared, a scorching aura spread out, radiating light, making it appear extremely extraordinary.
Cao Zhu, standing to the side, also stood up, clenched his fists, and his powerful spiritual energy rapidly condensed in his palms. In the blink of an eye, it condensed into two high-speed rotating spiritual wheels, the sharp round blades emitting a whooshing sound as they spun.
