"Flaming Wolf!" Zhao Di exclaimed.

  The Flame Wolves were just first-class demonic beasts, and if they were in normal times, he could easily wipe them out with a few finger movements. But now, even though these Flame Wolves were also affected by the Lingyin Great Array, and couldn't even cast "Fireball Technique", their sharp claws were still there, and they had an absolute advantage in numbers.

  Zhao Di hastily summoned the Ice Wind Python from the spiritual beast bag, and it glared viciously at the pack of wolves.

  The Flame Wolf and the ordinary wolf-like beasts were similar in size, all about five feet long, while the Ice Wind Python was over ten feet long, a massive creature. So when the Ice Wind Python suddenly appeared, these Flame Wolves instinctively retreated some distance, but they didn't intend to be intimidated.

  At present, Zhao Di Lian can't even summon the spiritual power of You Lan and You Ruo to help him, let alone use puppets. Now he can only rely on his spiritual beast, Bing Feng Jiao, and the Dream Crystal Sword in his hand!

  "Kill!" Zhao's right hand grasped the Dream Crystal Sword, releasing all his strength. His divine sense could still cover several meters around him, so if there were any Flame Wolves sneaking up from behind, he would be able to detect them in time. The Dream Crystal Sword in his hand was extremely sharp, and any Flame Wolf that came into contact with its blade would definitely be cut in two. Moreover, he had practiced the "Unrestrained Stride Technique", although he couldn't even comprehend the first layer, but it still improved his agility significantly, so naturally, he wouldn't let these Flame Wolves sneak up on him.

  In general, Zhao Di was only defending himself, killing the Flame Wolves that tried to pounce on him. Bing Feng Jiao, on the other hand, was displaying its divine might. Although its various magical abilities were not present, its body was extremely hard and could not be harmed by the Flame Wolves' sharp claws and teeth. Any Flame Wolf that was swept away by its massive tail, grabbed by its paws, pierced by its horns, or bitten by its enormous mouth would undoubtedly die.

  Under the majestic display of Bingfeng Jiao's power, in an instant, more than a dozen flames wolves fell under its claws and into its mouth. The remaining flame wolves were greatly intimidated and fled in all directions to distant places.

  A brief close combat had left Zhao Di feeling extremely exhausted, he hastily took another sip of Ganlin, put away the Ice Wind Python and continued on his journey.

  At the same time in the fourth layer of difficulties, Lin Zi Hang was struggling to climb a snow-capped mountain that was hundreds of meters high.

  This mountain is steep and treacherous, with ice pinnacles and sharp rocks covering the cliff. If it were in normal times, this woman could have easily transformed into a flash of light and crossed the mountain in an instant. Now that her spiritual power has been almost completely sealed, she can only rely on brute force to overcome this difficult pass.

  It's extremely cold here, fortunately she has a high-ranking fire fox demon beast skin in her storage ring, which is now wrapped around her body, just right for keeping warm, otherwise she would have frozen to death or voluntarily exited the Tongtian Tower.

  Lin Zihuang threw out a white silk ribbon dozens of feet long, wrapping it around the protruding rocks or cliffs, then pulled herself up by the ribbon.

  The renowned "Cloud-Wrapping Ribbon" treasure of the Starry Seas was actually being used as a mountaineering rope, if this scene were to spread, it would surely leave people agog and incredulous!

  Suddenly, a rock wrapped in silk gauze loosened and fell, and Lin Zihuan rushed down with the cloud gauze.

  Lin Zihuang didn't rush or panic, and continued to wrap the silk fabric around another steep rock face, but still due to the force of the fall, pulled this rock away from the mountain body as well.

  Seeing herself about to fall rapidly to the foot of the mountain, Lin Zihuang wore a hint of regret on her face and activated the Heaven-Connecting Order in her hand. A white mist flashed by, and she narrowly disappeared into the Heaven-Connecting Tower just before hitting the ground.

  Yuan Ziyao, who looked like a young man, had also entered the fourth layer's difficult pass not long ago. At this time, he was frowning, with a rapid and wide river stretching out before him, its end nowhere in sight. The river surface was vast, spanning over twenty miles, and on the other side of the river, there was a broad road leading to somewhere.

  Obviously, to reach the fifth layer, one must cross the great river in front of him. He had repeatedly gone in and out of the shocking giant waves and the deep sea bottom to kill monsters and search for treasures, it was simply as if he was walking on flat ground, coming and going freely. Now facing this river that didn't seem impressive to him, but for him who had almost lost all his magical powers, it was a huge trouble.

  After some deliberation, he took out a wooden shield and a broadsword, and plunged into the river. He held the wooden shield tightly in one hand, using its buoyancy to keep his upper body afloat on the surface of the water, while holding the broadsword in the other hand, using it as an oar to propel himself forward.

  A huge wave came, and he was immediately struck off course, drifting with the waves. After dozens of powerful strokes with his broadsword, he finally stabilized his body and continued to move forward. However, huge waves kept coming one after another, making him extremely exhausted, and before he even reached the middle of the river, he had almost used up all his energy.

  Yuan Zixiao was about to take out a few grains of the miraculous medicine that could restore some of his physical strength, when he suddenly felt an unusual movement behind him. He turned his head and saw seven or eight sharp-toothed alligators ferociously pouncing towards him, only twenty or thirty feet away. Yuan Zixiao cursed in his heart, and could only activate the Tongtian Order in his hand.

  Compared to other cultivators, Zhao Di was much luckier with his Ice Wind Python and Heavenly Punishment Ganlin, as his physical strength could be greatly replenished at any time. He maintained a relatively fast speed in this scorching desert and finally walked out of the desert after ten hours. A colorful cloud ladder, dozens of meters wide, appeared before Zhao Di.

  Along the way, he encountered several waves of beast attacks. Fortunately, Bingfeng Jiao was extremely ferocious and easily helped him drive away these threats.

  As soon as he stepped onto the cloud ladder, Zhao Di felt that the spiritual power in his body could be used freely again, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

  What treasures will be on the fifth floor! With such anticipation, Zhao Di hurried a few steps and arrived at the grand hall of the fifth floor of Tongtian Tower.

  The grand hall is only a few hundred feet in size, with nine arches surrounding it.

  "Hmm, no! Judging from the position, it should be ten, looks like someone has taken a step ahead and is already tackling the fifth layer's difficulty!" Zhao Di was slightly amazed. The first three layers were nothing to worry about, as long as one had exceptional strength and a calm mind, they could pass, but the fourth layer put cultivators on almost the same level as ordinary people in terms of physical endurance, it was really too difficult!

  If he hadn't accidentally discovered the magical use of Tian Jie Gan Lin, he would have been unable to pass this level no matter what!

  Could it be that this person also possesses some kind of extraordinary treasure that allows him to have boundless physical strength?

  Other people's affairs, no matter how clever Zhao was, he couldn't guess accurately. After a moment of thought, he stopped paying attention to it.

  Zhao's mouth slightly curled up as he gazed at the rows of cargo containers in the center of the grand hall, totaling fifty or sixty. At this moment, more than a dozen were still sealed with seemingly ordinary spiritual light restrictions.

  For so many years, there have been less than 50 Nascent Soul stage cultivators who have come here!

  Zhao Di used the Tongtian Command to open the light-restricting seal on one of the square grids, revealing a long, gold-inlaid jade box about a foot or more in length and two or three inches wide. A restrictive talisman was still stuck to the jade box.

  Zhao Di carefully looked at it, but it was just an ordinary talisman. After many years, its power had almost been exhausted. He easily tore off the talisman with his palm wrapped in purple energy and opened the jade box.

  A golden light flashing broad knife quietly lay in the jade box, the blade was about six inches long and two inches wide, with a three-inch handle.

  Zhao Di infused a stream of spiritual energy into the Golden Blade, which let out a loud "hum" and suddenly leapt into the air, its body expanding several times in size to become a massive golden blade several feet long. The two ancient characters "Liu Jin" (Flowing Gold) engraved on the hilt also became clearly visible.

  With Zhao Di's years of experience in refining equipment and his current cultivation, he could tell at a glance that the knife was made of precious materials, forged from gold essence through repeated purification and refinement, and its craftsmanship was also extremely high.

  Judging from the material of this sword and the spiritual pressure it emits, it should be a powerful attacking-type magic treasure. In terms of attack power alone, it is absolutely a top-ranked magic treasure in the hands of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

  If other Jindan period cultivators had obtained this treasure, they would have been extremely excited. However, at this moment, Zhao Di did not show too much surprise.

  If Zhao Di hadn't refined the Meng Li Sword, then this treasure would have been his best attacking method, and it might even have become his life-bound artifact. But since he already had the Meng Li Sword, which was much more powerful, he naturally wouldn't look at this dagger again. He simply swung it casually for a moment before putting the "Flowing Gold Dagger" away in his storage ring.

  For Zhao Di, the Thunder Boots obtained on the fourth floor are actually a bit stronger than his surname, while the Flowing Gold Knife, although clearly more valuable, only becomes his backup attack method in certain situations where it is not suitable to draw out the Dream Crystal Sword.

  Zhao Di looked at the remaining dozen or so squares with spiritual light seals and was quite moved.

  Using Tongtian Order is definitely not possible, I don't know how many cultivators have tried, one person can only use Tongtian Order to open a seal in a certain layer, there are no exceptions.

  But so many years have passed, I don't know if this seal is powerful enough. Zhao Di has a mind to try it out. If he can forcefully break through this seal, wouldn't he obtain more than ten powerful treasures all at once?

  "You Ruo, take a look at the restrictions here, is there any way to follow?" Zhao Di just ordered, You Ruo flashed out and carefully observed the spiritual light restrictions on the square grid, from time to time looking at the one-handed holding a Luo Pan-shaped law disk, sometimes also throwing a few law keys into the restriction to try.

  "Master, the seal here and the Tianluo Wanxiang Great Array of the entire Tongtian Tower are integrated as one. To break the seal here, you must start with the Tianluo Wanxiang Great Array. I'm afraid it's impossible for me to do it!" After a while, You Ruo let out a long sigh with a helpless expression.

  "It's indeed the case!" Zhao Di didn't show any surprise, after all, over the years, countless talented and brilliant Foundation Establishment cultivators had come to enter the Tongtian Tower, but no one had ever heard of anyone being able to ignore or break through the seals within. The treasures still quietly lay within the sealed restrictions, which was the best proof.

  "Although the hope is not great, I'll give it a try!" Zhao's face flashed with purple energy, and he lightly shouted, a mixed yuan divine light hitting the Dream Rui sword. Then, he swung his sword with both hands, fiercely slashing at one of the squares.
