Returning From Level 900

331 Even Ten Of Him Won’t Be Enough

Within the tower…

After each attack, the sword qi that filled the sky grew a little more.

It appeared to have received nourishment.

That was especially true when the senior brother fell and rolled down the steps near Wang Wen.

The size and scale of the sword qi had reached their peak.

It roared and charged toward Wang Wen like a colossal dragon.

Following that…

They were all destroyed when they collided with the transparent barrier.

Wang Wen’s eyes flitted as he took in his surroundings.

“You spent so much time and effort just to prepare such a move?” he said helplessly after a long time.

“It is a waste of my genuine eagerness to learn.”

The small-waisted woman on the steps was taken aback. Her facial muscles were tense, and she could not smile.

She appeared to be having difficulty accepting it.

“Is the top Tiangang sword formation ineffective? How did this occur?”

She turned to look at the corpses on the ground; she trembled.

“Alright, stop pretending,” Wang Wen said as he walked a few steps forward and kicked the senior brother. “Get up. You are the most powerful person here. Are you going to ambush me when the sword qi injures me? Why don’t you spend more time kissing your junior sister? I want to keep watching!”

The senior brother remained motionless.

Wang Wen condensed a giant blade in the sky with a wave of his hand, which fell straight toward the man.

If he were struck…

It would not be just a hole.

Boom!

The ground trembled, and the mountains shook.

More than half of the colossal blade was stuck in the ground.

The man was terrified, staring at the massive sword with a pale face.

The woman rushed down the stairs to help him; she checked his body with concern.

The senior brother swatted her hands and cupped his hands toward Wang Wen. “Your spiritual power is truly extraordinary. You can now enter the mountain to see Master because you’ve passed the mountain-protecting formation. I was just doing my job, and I apologize if I offended you earlier.”

He waved his hand as he spoke, scattering the corpses on the ground.

The woman waved her hand in the sky to disperse the sword qi. She hugged her senior brother and asked Wang Wen, “How did you know they were all fake? I’ve always managed to dupe Master, especially with Senior Brother’s collaboration. After all, no one would give us that much time to set up a formation in a normal fight.”

“Your energy consumption is not bad; it is very realistic. Unfortunately, I know this move as well, and I am very familiar with it—so familiar that I can tell whether it is real or fake at a glance.” Wang Wen was silent about something else. He could not only tell if it was real or fake, but he could also tell how much energy it contained.

He could only create dead things, whereas the other party could simulate real people that could perform tasks. Even the blood appeared to be real, which was something he lacked.

He was eager to learn.

However, that was not the appropriate time for an exchange.

The so-called duty of the mountain-protecting formation did not fool Wang Wen.

He had long developed the ability to find the main point in other people’s words, having lived for two lifetimes.

He considered the remaining time for the Unity of Man and Nature.

He interrupted what appeared to be a friendly conversation between the two and asked, “Let’s not talk about other things. May I ask what you meant when you said to contribute your spiritual power in peace?”

Immediately after he said that…

The woman’s face was a little stiff, and her grip on her senior brother tightened unconsciously.

“That is just some clichés used to liven things up,” the senior brother said calmly. “After all, we want the formation to look more real and vivid.”

“How can that be? Those characters might have been fake,” Wang Wen said indifferently. “But that last wave of sword qi did not look fake. If it had been someone who was not strong enough, they would have died on the spot.”

The senior brother’s expression stiffened as well.

They had no idea Wang Wen was so familiar with energy.

He had no idea what Wang Wen’s ability to see through energy levels meant.

“As expected, we can’t hide it from you,” the senior brother forced a smile and pretended to explain. “After all, illusory tricks can’t always support the mountain-protecting formation. The Tiangang sword formation is actually the only real move to measure the guests’ strength, but we controlled it well and did not hurt anyone.”

“Yes, I withdrew the sword formation at the last moment, and I guarantee you would not have been injured,” the woman quickly said.

Wang Wen grinned.

He raised his head and gazed at the distant mountain peak.

“You put on a monkey show, and you are still acting like a monkey now. Do you honestly believe you can bully me so easily?”

The voice faded.

His body floated into the air.

The scepter emitted a bright light.

The oath was made.

The wind and clouds were moving.

The airflow around the world began to speed up, and all the grass, trees, sand, and stones were ground into powder and mixed into the surging airflow gathering toward Wang Wen.

The senior brother and junior sister exchanged glances.

‘What is he trying to do?’ they wondered, looking up at the sky.

“He appears to be building up power for a move.”

“Making a move?” The senior brother could not stop smiling. “Attack within the mountain-protecting formation? Do you think our recent attacks were the true body of the formation?”

The woman smiled and blinked amusingly. “Perhaps his cultivation is so profound that he is unconcerned about that.”

“It is entirely possible!” The senior brother agreed and said jokingly, “After all, his spiritual power is there for all to see. It is nearly as high as Uncle Master Dan’s spiritual power, so it is not surprising that he is competent.”

“Can my master then overcome the great mountain-protecting formation?” The woman asked, tilting her head and pretending to be innocent.

“Uncle Master Dan…” The senior brother pretended to be sad and bowed to the distant mountain peak. “I will be extremely disrespectful, but ten of him may not even be enough!”

They laughed so hard that they could not stand up in the growing sandstorm.

Until the ground shifted…

The mountain rocks shattered.

The real and fake stone walls were peeled away, revealing the long-forgotten path from which they had come.

Wang Wen’s energy was rapidly returning.

The two people gradually stopped laughing.

The senior brother cast a suspicious glance at Wang Wen, who was flying through the air. “I think I see his spiritual power level rising,” he said, rubbing his eyes.

The woman’s face was more unassuming.

Her pupils widened as if she had seen a ghost. “He has already outperformed my master! I can’t see his strength any longer!”

“Did he hide his spiritual power level?” The senior brother expressed his disbelief.

“Or perhaps he is exhausted and can’t recover his spiritual energy?” the woman trembled. “Did he intentionally keep it at such a low level?”

“Impossible!” Her senior brother rejected her guess.

“We have cultivated ourselves to such a high level,” he said confidently. “Even if we don’t intentionally restore our energy, the golden core in our bodies will absorb spiritual power to do so. It is impossible to maintain this level of performance at a given position all the time unless he continues to use spiritual power and maintains the same recovery rate!

“Senior Brother. Should we go into hiding for a while?” The woman was frightened.

The senior brother also considered retreating, but when he noticed the woman trembling, he felt the warm blood rush to his head. He said, “Why are we avoiding him? This is where we are supposed to work together. Where can we hide? Furthermore, will he be stronger than the mountain-protecting formation, no matter how strong he is?”

His body began to move as he spoke.

“Junior Sister, please come and assist me! Let’s work together to activate the mountain-protecting formation!” he yelled as he drew his sword.

The woman was ecstatic when she saw her senior brother’s handsome appearance.

She responded and placed a hand on her senior brother’s body.

For a while, the two of them danced.

A buzzing sound was heard in the air.

A semicircular curtain of seven-colored light entirely covered the mountain.

Soon after that…

In mid-air, Wang Wen let out a strange grunt.

It sounded like a contented moan.

He stretched lazily inside the bubble.

Full of vitality!

It was encircled by a mountain formation that emitted a seven-colored glow.

It made a sound.

Then, it shattered.
