I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

"The eighteenth floor is never an exit, but a place where you are completely trapped and raised like a venomous insect. I advise you to calm down." Mu Chongxi shook his head irritably, speaking quickly, and told Chaoxi and Duanchen to quickly intercept the group on the seventeenth floor.

Two sword spirits blocked his path. Ye Qinghan looked up in annoyance, "It's you."

Zhu You stepped forward, her voice slightly hoarse: "Have you seen my second senior brother?"

Less than an incense stick's time had passed between them, and Zhu You hoped they would answer that they had seen it. However, the two looked at each other and shook their heads.

They did not see Chu Xingzhi.

"When we arrived, the first sixteen floors were filled with the corpses of those strange things."

"Something attacked us from behind, but our senior brother and the two sword spirits took care of it."

Chao Xi Tian Ke is now so powerful that even demons and monsters wouldn't dare approach easily. As for Chu Xingzhi...? I really didn't see him.

"Is that so?" Zhu You's fingertips trembled suddenly as she forcefully controlled her emotions and looked at the two sword spirits: "Then please step aside."

She didn't believe that Chu Xingzhi could be so easily bewitched by the illusionary ghost.

More than that, she wanted to go down to the eighteenth floor and find a way to rescue the person.

Without the sword master's order, Chaoxi and Duanchen acted as if they were deaf, one nonchalant and the other looking dejected.

Not one of them was willing to compromise.

"Our junior sister, have you seen her?" Mu Chongxi didn't beat around the bush. "Oh, right, and Ming Xuan too."

Ye Qinghan was slightly taken aback, then said expressionlessly, "She's not here."

They had explored all seventeen levels. If Ye Qiao were here, the first seventeen levels of the Ghost King Tower would certainly not be so quiet.

Mu Chongxi clasped his hands in his arms. "Could it be that you were the ones who missed out on that Heavenly Blessing?"

"You mean Ye Qiao is also in Ghost King Tower?" He denied it: "Impossible, we haven't seen her at all on our way up."

"We're going to the eighteenth floor." Ye Qinghan repeated Zhu You's words: "Make way." He wanted to see what kind of demons and monsters were on the eighteenth floor, but no matter what they were, Ye Qinghan was now filled with resentment and only wanted to destroy this place.

"Are you confident you can get out once you go in?" Zhou Xingyun asked calmly, looking at them. "If you're not confident, do you think your pleasure is simply to die?"

He usually doesn't talk this much, but after learning that his junior brothers and sisters from the Changming Sect might also be in the Ghost King Tower, Zhou Xingyun became somewhat irritable.

Ye Qinghan's unexpected collision made him unusually displeased.

"You think I wouldn't dare kill you?" Ye Qinghan's feet moved slightly. Chu Xingzhi was left on the sixteenth floor, his fate unknown. Ye Qinghan's eyes were filled with undisguised killing intent as he looked at Zhou Xingyun, who was trying to obstruct him.

Two Nascent Soul stage cultivators started fighting without warning.

Zhou Xingyun did not answer, but stared at him for several seconds without changing the slight downward curve of his lips.

Their feet also stepped out of the designated area.

In stark contrast to Ye Qiao's vibrant and thriving domain, it was a desolate and empty wasteland.

The moment the domain was activated, Zhou Xingyun understood that the domain reflected not only the Dao, but also the Dao Heart.

The realm of nothingness.

The opening of two consecutive realms caused the seventeenth level to be engulfed in sand and stones, plunging it into extreme chaos.

Zhu You was stunned: "What is that?"

"Domain." Mu Chongxi said without looking up, "Senior Brother's domain."

For someone as laid-back as Zhou Xingyun, whether or not he wants to comprehend a domain depends entirely on his mood.

It's very capricious, but in the cultivation world, talent is what matters.

……

"Ahhh, tell them to stop fighting! Don't open the domains, everyone!" The ghost cultivator almost knelt down in disbelief at this group. What were they doing? Two domains were open on the seventeenth floor. If they collapsed, the eighteenth floor at the very bottom would be the most miserable.

The seventeenth floor was locked in fierce combat, and the collision between the two domains easily created powerful air currents and a sense of oppression, which could be felt even by those on the eighteenth floor.

What kind of demons and monsters have come to Ghost King Tower this time?

"Can they hear us communicating with those on the seventeenth floor?" Ye Qiao also sensed the aura of the domain. She wrinkled her nose and kicked the edge of the surrounding tower. "Or perhaps, should I create a domain myself and join their domain free-for-all?"

She didn't come to break them up.

She could totally join them.

The ghost cultivator was speechless and hurriedly stopped Ye Qiao's devilish idea: "No, no, no, they are already terrifying enough. You shouldn't join them."

The six of them had been staying in this place for half a month, and now the grass was practically growing on them.

The Ghost King had been observing this group of people on the eighteenth floor, and would occasionally send little ghosts to try to assimilate them all. As a result, they captured countless little ghosts in the past few days. The weapon cultivators provided the golden silk nets, the talisman cultivators were responsible for the sneak attacks, and the only sword cultivator, Ye Qiao, carried the Flying Immortal Sword and caught the subordinates sent down by the Ghost King and whipped them hard.

When asked how to deal with this group of brats, Mingxuan lazily raised his hand and suggested pulling down their pants.

Qi Lu clapped his hands suddenly: "Great idea! Pull down their pants and hang them in a row to insult their spirit."

Qi Yu looked at him with a pained expression. To be honest, her brother was barely a normal person before, right?

After staying for half a month, has my mental state finally been assimilated?

……

The two Nascent Soul stage cultivators disappeared from each other's domains simultaneously. Upon seeing this, Zhu You attempted to run to the eighteenth floor.

Mu Chongxi noticed her movement, stopped her, and said helplessly, "Don't go, why won't you listen to advice?"

"The danger level of the 18th floor is higher than here. The things here still have a physical form when they assimilate people, but if you get even a little bit of the fog in the 18th floor, you will be continuously assimilated and become a living dead sooner or later."

He didn't understand what these people were thinking.

She looked up and stared intently at Mu Chongxi, slowly exhaling: "You can't find Ye Qiao and the others either, can you? Then why don't you go check the eighteenth floor?"

At the very least, they wanted to save Chu Xingzhi, and no matter what was on the eighteenth floor, they had to go and see for themselves.

Mu Chongxi hesitated for a moment after being asked the question.

The next second, the girl's Luoshui Sword was drawn without warning. The ice shards transformed into blades, forcing Mu Chongxi into a corner. She could sever his throat with just a finger's width of space.

"You're right, the eighteenth floor must be very dangerous, but it's also the only way out. Otherwise, are we just going to waste our time on the seventeenth floor?" Zhu You said. They could afford to wait, but their second senior brother didn't have the time.

If we continue wasting time like this, there will really be no chance to bring Chu Xingzhi back.

Mu Chongxi understood her feelings and remained silent without stopping her. In fact, he suspected that Ye Qiao and Ming Xuan, those two restless people, were also in the Ghost King Tower, but he had not seen them from the first to the seventeenth floor.

What if, like Chu Xingzhi, I were trapped and lost in the tower...

While a group of people were fighting fiercely over whether or not to go to the eighteenth floor, Chao Xijian, being a man of action, floated down and stepped into the eighteenth floor, shouting as he went, "Stop fighting for now."

He stroked his chin. "I think the eighteenth floor of the Ghost King Tower might be a little different from what you imagine?"
