However, who knew that Zhao Xuening’s expression was actually for Xuan Lingzi to see.

The so-called deception was a mixture of truth and falsehood. This was what Su Yi had told her when they were still in school, and because of this, she could not help but quarrel with Su Yi.

At this moment, other than the panic on Zhao Xuening’s face, there was actually a trace of craftiness hidden in her beautiful eyes.

When Xuan Lingzi saw the panic on Zhao Xuening’s face, he was even more certain that he had hit the spot. It was likely that she was trying to buy time for Su Yi to escape.

Suddenly, just as Xuan Lingzi was approaching the Cultivation Dao Pagoda…

Bang!!

It was as though he had hit a wall. His old face was distorted from the impact and even had a nosebleed.

Faint lines appeared in the air in front of Xuan Lingzi. These mysterious lines were like a wall that blocked his path in front of him.

Just as no one knew what had happened, Zhao Xuening slowly walked forward and said with an aggrieved expression.

“See, Senior Xuan Lingzi, I already said that there is a restriction.”

Who knew that Xuan Lingzi still did not believe in some broken restriction. It was just a barrier, and at worst, he could just destroy it.

Ignoring Zhao Xuening’s words, Xuan Lingzi jumped back a few times and distanced himself from the ‘restriction’. The spell in his hand glowed, and a huge sword qi condensed in Xuan Lingzi’s hand.

“Damn it! I don’t believe it!” Xuan Lingzi shouted in a low voice, and then shot out that extremely powerful sword qi.

At this moment, Zhao Xuening cried out in surprise again.

“Senior Xuan Lingzi, quickly stop!!”

These words were 30% true, 30% false, and it sounded like she was 40% anxious.

Hearing this, the corner of Xuan Lingzi’s mouth curled into a cold smile. Hehe, you still want to stop me now? It’s too late!

“Go!!” The sword qi suddenly hit the air in front of him.

Boom!!

With a loud sound, the air in front of Xuan Lingzi rippled, and then an even more terrifying force was transmitted back to Xuan Lingzi.

Xuan Lingzi, who was wearing a gray robe, was sent flying by the rebounding force, and then fell to the ground in a mess.

He stared at the restriction that had disappeared into the air and gritted his yellow teeth.

Su Yi was clearly on top of the tower, but he could not get close to it. This situation made Xuan Lingzi extremely depressed.

Then, he glared at Zhao Xuening and the others who were not far behind him and shouted angrily.

“Do you know what’s going on?!”

However, who would explain to him? To Nie Ling and Li Mengxi, Xuan Lingzi was like an enemy. How could they help the wicked?

Moreover, they did not know about the restriction.

“You!!”

Seeing that no one responded, Xuan Lingzi became even angrier. As long as it had something to do with Su Yi, there was nothing that was not troublesome.

Therefore, he planned to teach these juniors a good lesson.

At this time, Zhao Xuening spoke faintly again. “Senior Xuan Lingzi, look, I already said that there’s a restriction. The current situation is your own fault. You can’t blame anyone.”

Hearing Zhao Xuening’s sarcastic tone, Xuan Lingzi was furious.

Then, he looked at Zhao Xuening coldly and asked, “Niece Zhao, is there a way to break this restriction? I can give you a reward.”

At this moment, Xuan Lingzi could only place his hope on Zhao Xuening because she had shown that she did not care about Su Yi from the beginning. Instead, she seemed to have given Xuan Lingzi many repeated cautions about the barrier.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xuening shook her head slightly and said, “I don’t know about that, but this restriction will disappear once every three to five days. I don’t know the exact time.”

“Three to five days, huh…” Xuan Lingzi muttered.

Not far away, Nie Ling looked at the two people talking in front of the Cultivation Dao Pagoda and could not help but ask, “fellow Daoist Li, fellow Daoist Zhao is…”

Who knew that Li Mengxi would slowly approach Nie Ling’s ear and say in a low voice, “don’t worry. Even if Zhao Xuening betrayed us all, she wouldn’t betray Su Yi. Perhaps she’s scheming something.”

In a more hidden place, a palm-sized array disk was slowly operating. However, cracks had already begun to appear on the array disk.

That’s right, this array disk was really Zhao Xuening’s protective item. This was a defensive array formation that could block attacks below the core formation stage.

After blocking Xuan Lingzi’s attack, cracks also appeared. Perhaps this array disk would not be able to hold on for long.

…

At the ninth level of the Cultivation Dao Pagoda.

The slender figure was still sitting cross-legged on the praying mat, using the Jade Lotus of Destiny to cultivate rapidly.

He was really absorbing the spiritual energy like a bottomless pit, and his cultivation was also increasing.

“Break!” With a light shout, the aura on his body rose another level.

At the same time, with the sound of notifications, the corner of his mouth revealed a faint smile.

Hint: Your cultivation has reached 80,000, you have broken through to the ninth layer of the foundation establishment realm.

“Finally, I’ve reached this level.”

His pair of resolute eyes flashed with a bright light. An explosive power flowed through his meridians, as if a single punch could blow up anything.

However, he also knew that this was just an illusion created by his soaring strength.

Previously, he was already unafraid of the threat of those elders from the aristocratic families. Now that his strength had increased, he was afraid that he would no longer be a match for them in the great desolate region.

However, even so, he was still not satisfied. Perhaps it was because of the Jade Lotus of Destiny, but he could not feel the saturation of spiritual qi, nor did he feel many obstructions.

Therefore, he could continue cultivating until he reached the perfect foundation establishment.

Thinking of this, he did not waste a single bit of time. He closed his eyes and continued to circulate his mental cultivation method.

Little did he know that at this moment, the Cultivation Dao Pagoda seemed to have begun to undergo changes.

First, the spirit gathering array pattern on the first level slowly faded away, and then it disappeared. After four hours, even the spirit gathering array on the second level had disappeared.

Xuan Lingzi, who was outside the Cultivation Dao Pagoda, was already overjoyed. From his point of view, this was clearly the rhythm before the restriction was removed.

Two days later…

The spirit gathering array pattern was only left with the ninth level. It was unknown when the array disk had shattered. The ‘restriction’ that Zhao Xuening had set up had quietly disappeared. Even the Cultivation Dao Pagoda seemed like it was about to close.

At this moment, Xuan Lingzi could not help but rush forward, wanting to kill Su Yi at the first possible moment.

At this moment, Zhao Xuening was truly anxious. She could feel that the array disk that she had set up had lost contact. It should be crippled. When that time came, there would naturally be no enchantment. Su Yi had not appeared from the Cultivation Dao Pagoda, and she did not know what was going on inside. At the moment, if she could stall for some time, she could.

Thinking of this, she took another step forward and blocked Xuan Lingzi’s path.
