Amidst the laughter, Ziyunfei spread his arms to endure the pain, allowing many fierce animals to kill him instantly.

In the midst of the fighting, he sat down and suddenly opened his eyes. Then he discovered that everything had vanished.

The mysterious forest, the thunder-scaled tiger, all had completely disappeared.

In front of him, there was only water, soft and comforting. It turned out that everything now was an illusion.

At this moment, besides Ziyunfei, everyone else had regained their senses.

Heng Zhan and Yan Hong were not in the hall, so it could be confirmed that they had entered the second floor.

He sighed in relief, realizing his back had been wet for a long time.

"Miss Shui, what just happened?"

Calming down, I couldn’t help but sit and ask.

Although he knew it was all an illusion, he didn’t understand why he suddenly returned to the Seven Days Tower.

More importantly, can they climb up to the second floor of the Seven Days Tower?

"What do you want to ask?"

Shui Roushu glanced at Ting Zuo, and responded indifferently.

"How do we get out?" he asked. "Moreover, does this mean we’ve passed the first level?"

"Huh!—"

At this point, Ziyunfei, who had kept his eyes shut, suddenly opened them, disappearing from the illusion.

Shuiroushu ignored Ziyunfei, saying with a smile: "Actually, this kind of illusion can easily disappear. If you die in the mirage, it will automatically vanish."

"However, if you want to pass the first level, you must kill at least one fierce beast. As long as you can kill any vicious beast, you have the right to enter the second stage."

"Oh, so that’s how it is!"

Ting Zuo immediately nodded slowly.

"I don’t even understand what’s going on. I came to the Seven Days Tower. What a small round cake!"

After Shui Roushu spoke, Ziyunfei suddenly sneered.

Obviously, he was mocking himself for never having seen this world and not understanding the situation of the Seven Days Tower.

Upon hearing this, Ting Zuo scoffed, "Listening to your tone, you seem to be the first to know everything."

"I’ve just been here a few more times. There’s nothing to brag about."

"If I were your age, I’m afraid those fierce beasts would have died in my hands long ago."

"Humph, what use is it to blow your own horn again?" If I were you, I’d be embarrassed to keep my mouth shut."

Ziyunfei sneered, saying disdainfully.

"Yes, I’m bragging. It took me a year, my achievements went from nine times the plastic body to five times the life. Can you replace it?"

Ting Zuo laughed, speaking arrogantly.

As soon as those words were spoken, the others returned, but Shui was very soft, and Qingsheng seemed clear-minded.

In a year, there aren’t many talents like this.

"You’ve blown it, then you blew it up! But who do you think would believe it? With a mouth, I could say it."

"I said, in a year, I went from a plastic body to Heaven and Man. Do you think it’s possible?"

Ziyunfei laughed, with a stronger tone of sarcasm.

Ting Zuo’s words were something others might not believe, but Shui Ruanshu believed mostly.

Because she knew, she entered the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts Academy alongside Ao Kangsheng. Back then, Ao Cangsheng’s cultivation was only in the Nine Fang Plastic Realm.

Now, Ao Cangsheng’s achievements had reached the seventh layer of life, climbing up eight realms.

Of course, this was not the most shocking part; the most shocking was that Ao Cangsheng now had the power to kill Wu Yishan.

Who is Wu Yunshan? An influential figure with decades of fighting experience.

Based on his past battle experience, even four strong beings in the Celestial Realm might not necessarily be his match.

However, such an old, sinister, and cunning guy died at Ao Cangsheng’s hands.

This shows just how strong Ao Cangsheng’s abilities truly are?

Initially, Ao Cangsheng entered the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School simultaneously with Man Zuo. There shouldn’t be much difference in their achievements.

In this light, his words could very likely be true.

Seeing the increasingly intense atmosphere between the two, if the dispute continued, a real battle might begin again.

At this moment, a wall in the hall suddenly emitted sounds echoing to include machine sounds.

The wall immediately slid open, and a steep staircase suddenly appeared before everyone.

When he saw the staircase appear, he opened his mouth, then closed it again.

"Miss Shui, the passage to the second floor is open. Let’s go!"

Ziyunfei smiled slightly, took two steps forward, and spoke softly to Shui Qingsheng.

Shui Roushu ignored Ziyunfei and walked straight to the stairs.

Wu Qingxin stared at Ziyunfei for a while, then followed after him.

Although Ziyunfei wasn’t happy with such a collision, he was indeed pleased.

So he quickly beckoned to the four strong men, signaling them to sit down.

"No need to stand, no need!"

The elderly man in black looked pleased, bowing his head and waving his hands.

Such a scene made the sense of Bai Chunqiu’s doubts deepen.

If it were on a normal day, for him to finish saying this sentence, these people might have already sat for a long time. How could they still stand?

Just like this, Li Bai’s face changed involuntarily once more, shifting from earlier solemnity to becoming serious.

"Something must be wrong, something must be wrong!"

Baili Chunqiu thought to himself.

"Alright, then stand up and speak!"

Baili Chunqiu slowly took a deep breath.

As soon as the words were spoken, the bodies of the four strong men couldn’t help but tremble slightly.

At this moment, everyone’s face grew grim.

However, facing the solemnity of Chunqiu, the elderly man in black suddenly felt timid, lacking the courage to speak.

"Hey, aren’t you busy?"

Upon seeing the hesitation, Bai Chunqiu couldn’t help but ask.

At this moment, Bai Chunqiu could conclude that the elderly man in black must have something important to report. Furthermore, it wasn’t a trifling matter either.

"Yes! Reporting to Your Majesty..."

Even as the elderly man in black spoke, cold sweat rolled down his cheeks in beads, one after another dropping onto the jade steps.

His face looked as if he had suffered a serious illness and was recovering. At this moment, his once sharp eyes dimmed, flickering slightly.

"Speak! If you keep shaking like this, do you want to pass away sooner?"

Seeing the elderly man in black nearly losing his voice after one sentence, Baili Chunqiu finally couldn’t hold back.

Despite Bai Chunqiu’s scolding being mild, it directly intimidated the elderly man in black onto his knees.

Then, the three men standing behind him also took a knee before Spring. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am guilty, I am guilty!"

The elderly man in black suddenly bowed to the pain, his voice filled with anguish.

The other three strong men, witnessing the truth, echoed in unison, claiming they were guilty.

This sudden turn of events caused Bai Chunqiu’s heart to contract sharply.

In an instant, he recalled the disappearance incident of the Prince Bai Long from their abnormal reactions.

There are not many matters that can make the hearts of four Celestials tremble, or can make the hearts of strong ones tremble. If not the Bai Long incident, such iron-willed people wouldn’t behave this way.

"Hey, what happened to the Prince?"

Thinking of this, Baili Chunqiu suddenly assumed a fierce demeanor and roared.

He dared not think further, fearing he couldn’t withstand such a blow.

At this point, the elderly man in black had no need to hesitate.

He took a deep breath, crawling to the ground, his voice trembling: "Your Majesty, the Prince has disappeared!"

This voice was like a thunderbolt directly landing upon Baili Chunqiu during the Spring and Autumn period.

In an instant, Bai Chunqiu shook, almost falling from the Dragon Chair.

For a while, his face turned ashen.

"What did you say?" You...ugh

In the Spring and Autumn period, he suddenly leapt from the Dragon Chair, raising his hand to point at the trembling elderly man in black.

The elderly man in black trembled all over, his head close to the ground, daring not to raise it even slightly.

"Returning to my lord, the Prince has disappeared!"

Despite the fear, the elderly man in black repeated his words.

"Boom—"
