Chapter 1378: Entering The Octagonal Tower

People were shocked to see Zhentian being suppressed by the dao. In the minds of many in Heaven Spirit, he was a character that was simply invincible. But now, Li Qiye was able to stop him. Even though he was borrowing the forbidden zone’s power, this wasn’t something anyone could do.

Li Qiye looked at Cao Guojian and insipidly stated: “Unfortunately, your master can’t save you either.”

The spectators held their breaths since they could imagine what was about to happen to Cao Guojian. Even those who had ties with Zhentian didn’t dare to speak up on Guojian’s behalf, let alone come out to save him.

Guojian’s expression was ash-gray. He knew that if his master gets distracted to try and save him, it would bring about great danger. He no longer relied on this since he didn’t want his master to risk himself, so he coldly uttered: “Li, the winner takes all. I have nothing to say, do your worst.”

Li Qiye chuckled: “You actually have some backbone. Very well, I’ll fulfill your wish.”

“Crack!” Furious crushed Guojian’s neck. His head tilted to the side to meet his end.

People felt a cold chill after witnessing this death. Meng Zhentian was present on this continent, yet he was unable to save his own disciple. This scene was so shocking that people inadvertently touched their own necks after sensing the chill.

Regardless of how strong one might be or what their backing is, they must think carefully before opposing Li Qiye. To take it a step further, they must be prepared for death because their backing wouldn’t be able to save them. Cao Guojian was the perfect example.

Some people felt their hearts tighten. They believed that coming from an imperial or sea god lineage, their ancestors would be invincible in this world. Outsiders would have to give them face, they wouldn’t dare to cross the line.

But now, Li Qiye didn’t give a damn about anyone’s background and identity. He would decisively kill both the Roaring Conch and Meng Zhentian. No one could stop his murderous path.

The gazes here told the tale, and this was true for the Profound Monarch as well. His deep and fierce eyes changed quite a bit. Despite his enmity with Li Qiye, he chose against seeking revenge for his concubine. Prior to this, he couldn’t see through Li Qiye’s strength but still knew that he wasn’t a match. At this moment, he learned that it was quite a far-sighted choice. Li Qiye’s power far exceeded his imagination. Perhaps in the current generation, only Meng Zhentian could match him!

The Swiftdao God was moved as well. He had to admit that only Meng Zhentian was qualified to fight against Li Qiye in the present. As a proud man, he thought that he could catch up to Zhentian in just a few years. But now, it looked like it wasn’t just Meng Zhentian, Li Qiye was also a powerful rival!

“Okay, anyone else have something to say?” Li Qiye smiled and stood up.

Everyone was silent. No one dared to state their opinion about him.

“No one? That’s good.” Li Qiye looked around the crowd before entering the altar with a faint smile on his face.

While watching the light turn into weapons on the altar, he absentmindedly mused: “How much longer can a place like this exist?”

He was standing on the spot Terra occupied earlier. Everyone knew that this was the entrance to the altar via a small boat. Of course, no one dared to compete for this spot against Li Qiye, they all obediently stood to the side.

Anticipation ran high. Everyone was waiting for the boat to appear once more to see if they could have a chance after Li Qiye enters. After a long time, a light finally came down and turned into a little boat. Li Qiye sat down, letting it take him towards the tower.
