Chapter 166: King of the Nine Towers 3
Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
Dream-Making Expert
“The last Pill Tower.”
Within the Thunderfire Pill Realm, the crowd surged.
Countless eyes gazed at Lin Qi as he walked alone into the final Red Tower.
The tower door closed, and the light screen drew open.
This familiar scene had already played out eight times in a row within the Thunderfire Pill Realm.
Everyone subconsciously held their breath.
The entire plaza was dead silent, waiting to witness the final moment.
“Lin Qi, what are you trying to do?”
“Could becoming the King of the Nine Towers really bring some kind of fortuitous opportunity?”
Zhao Yueru stared blankly at Lin Qi within the light screen.
Toward this man she had once looked down upon.
At this moment, a realization suddenly arose in her heart: thirty years on the east bank of the river, thirty years on the west; never mock a youth for being poor.
This realization was extremely intense.
Even more intense than when Lin Qi had coerced the will of heaven to suppress the Nine Great Golden Cores.
Even more shocking than learning that Lin Qi had become an Inspector of the Thunderfire Pill Realm.
Because the previous two had, more or less, been borrowing the tiger’s might.
But now Lin Qi, by his own strength alone, had challenged eight Pill Towers in succession.
And was about to become the unprecedented, unmatched King of the Nine Towers.
Such methods.
Suddenly.
A tremendous crash from the sky interrupted Zhao Yueru’s thoughts.
She looked up toward the sound, and saw before the Thunder Domain Secret Realm streaks of figures displaying the majesty of Golden Cores, descending one after another.
Ling Danzi, Ancestor Blaze, Jian Shengyi, Ancestor Wuji…
One after another, Golden Core Ancestors she knew or did not know, awe-inspiring and dignified, teleported out from the Thunder Domain Secret Realm.
Standing above the void, thunder roared behind them, flames burned around them.
Beams of radiant light, sharp and filled with oppressive might, looked down from above.
The crowd on the plaza immediately fell silent as cicadas in winter.
“Look, it’s Lin Qi.”
“He’s challenging the Pill Tower?”
Ancestor Wuji caught sight of Lin Qi, who was opening the furnace to refine pills within the light screen, and cried out in shock.
As for Ancestor Blaze, he had already flown to the front of the Red Tower in the first instant, so furious he was stamping his feet.
“Lin Qi, you are no son of man!”
“Boy, how dare you bully me like this!”
Ancestor Blaze roared and bellowed, but there was no way to break into the Red Tower to stop Lin Qi. His tiger-like eyes glared, and he roared.
“Yun Lang, are you fucking dead?”
“If you’re not dead, get your ass over here!”
“Tell me, what the hell is going on!”
Yun Lang scrambled and crawled to Ancestor Blaze’s front, hugging his head and wailing.
“Master, you’ve finally returned.”
“The Inspector—ah, pah—Lin Qi, he’s not human.”
“While you
all went to the Thunder Domain Secret Realm.”
