boom!

When Long Yi and Zhao Bingqing came into contact with the barrier leading to the last level of the Spiritual Qi Tower, they felt a powerful wave bursting out from it!

Even Long Yi was knocked back a few steps by this wave.

After Long Yi calmed his turbulent blood, he looked at Zhao Bingqing standing beside him and asked, "How are you?"

Zhao Bingqing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. Her strength was originally somewhat different from Long Yi's. Even Long Yi could barely resist the impact just now. As for her, the situation was even worse.

However, despite looking rather embarrassed, Zhao Bingqing still gritted her teeth and said firmly: "It's okay, I won't die."

"Don't be so stubborn. This place is exactly as the rumors say. It is indeed a little strange here. It is better to leave here as soon as possible."

"You should leave first."

Long Yi kindly followed up with a reminder.

He could feel that Zhao Bingqing had been injured in the previous attack.

If she continues to stay here, her condition will only get worse.

You may even be unable to resist it.

But Zhao Bingqing smiled coldly and said firmly, "Who do you take me for? Do you think I'll be scared off just because I encounter some obstacles?"

"Then you really underestimated me."

"Besides, if I can improve my cultivation, I will be able to withstand any pain I have to endure."

"The worst that can happen is death!"

Long Yi sighed helplessly. This woman was really unreasonable and insisted on having her own way!

But even so, he couldn't force Zhao Bingqing out, otherwise, this woman would never let him go.

After thinking this through, Long Yi didn't say anything more. He could only focus more on Zhao Bingqing and try his best to protect her safety.

In the blink of an eye, Long Yi and the other man had already stepped onto the stairs.

There are nine steps leading to the last floor. As long as they cross these nine steps, they will be able to reach the last floor.

There will be a new world there.

However, although the number of steps is small, each step requires great cost and pain.

As the two of them walked up to the fourth step,

Long Yi felt a surge of pressure, and the substantial energy suppression had already fallen on him, making it difficult for Long Yi to move.

In contrast, Zhao Bingqing, who was standing behind Long Yi, was in an even worse situation than Long Yi. She had to pay a huge price for every step she took.

The overall state of the person has also been affected to a certain extent.

Although Long Yi stood in front of her and was able to block some of the energy suppression for her, Zhao Bingqing's body had already reached its limit.

If I continue to go up, I'm afraid I will explode and die.

"You go out first."

Long Yi's face was a little pale and his voice was a little deep.

"You should have noticed the difference here. If we continue to hold on here, I'm afraid the situation will get worse."

"If you go up any further, it will be more difficult to escape unscathed."

After hearing Long Yi's reminder, Zhao Bingqing also hesitated.

Even if Long Yi didn't say these things, she could feel them in her heart.

After a moment, she nodded and said, "Okay."

If I continue to stay here, it will be futile.

She hadn't even walked halfway yet and she could already feel this pressure. She couldn't imagine what she would have to endure if she continued walking.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally chose to withdraw.

It seems that I am indeed not destined to be on the top level.

None of this can be forced.

It would be better to rely on the penultimate level of spiritual energy to stabilize one's strength at the current level.

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Bingqing had already retreated.

In the crowd, those who had been looking at the stairs couldn't help but sigh.

"This woman is really strong. She can actually reach the fourth step."

"At first, I also wanted to enter the last level, but when I reached the first step, I felt a strong fluctuation."

"It's a pity that it has to come out in the end..."

"As far as I know, this last section of stairs gathers all the strength of the previous eight sections. In other words, the last section is the most difficult to climb."

"Looking like this, I'm afraid Long Yi won't be able to bear it!"

“…”

Just the first few steps were so terrifying that it was hard for them to imagine how terrifying the last step would be.

That is definitely not the limit that the human body can endure!

I'm afraid that in the end Long Yi will have to withdraw.

"I believe that Brother Long will never back down in the face of difficulties."

"Brother Long will definitely be able to enter the last level!"

Li Yundu gritted his teeth and spoke firmly.

Bi Yunqiu and Ximen Xuan were both worried about Long Yi.

Some things are not just talk. Only those in the game know how difficult it is to actually put them into practice.

Everything depends on Long Yi's luck.

As Zhao Bingqing walked down the stairs, Li Yundu and others hurried over and quickly supported Zhao Bingqing.

Her body was already a little shaky.

Obviously, the body has suffered a great shock in the process just now, and it is probably impossible to recover in a short period of time.

"I'm fine. You guys continue practicing and don't worry about me."

"I can adjust it myself."

Zhao Bingqing spoke lightly.

"Not to mention that we can't concentrate on our cultivation, even these strangers are focusing their attention on you and Brother Long."

"Unless we can confirm that Brother Long is absolutely safe, how can we concentrate on practicing?"

Li Yundu said helplessly.

Ximen Xuan on the side also nodded.

Although he and Long Yi had only known each other for a short time, he had already regarded Long Yi as his friend very early on.

At this time, although I can't help Long Yi, at least I can stay here with Long Yi.

"Okay then."

"Then you guys stay here and observe Long Yi's situation. I'm going to rest for a while. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to absorb the spiritual energy here."

Zhao Bingqing spoke lightly.

I have finally come here, I can't just make a wasted trip like this, right?

Wouldn't that be a waste of Long Yi's kindness?

After all, it was because I was too stubborn that I ended up in this situation.

"good."

Li Yundu nodded quickly and stood beside Zhao Bingqing, which was also considered as protecting Zhao Bingqing.

Ximen Xuan also walked behind Zhao Bingqing and looked at the people around him vigilantly.
