As they rushed upward, the cold wind around them and their power began to increase rapidly.

Gusts of wind hit the surface of the light curtain, causing the originally stable light curtain to begin to vibrate.

If this continues, it won't be long before the light curtain will shatter.

However, at this time, there was suddenly an extra item next to Xu Fatzi.

It is a small crystal shield that emits a pale blue glow. At the same time, a vast aura emanated from the inside outward.

Xu Fatzi immediately activated this object, and a light blue light curtain appeared, which began to expand rapidly in all directions, and finally merged with the light curtain that existed before.

When it fused, the aura emitted by this small shield also became a little weaker. And as time passed, the energy inside the shield began to be consumed rapidly.

After three breaths, countless cracks appeared on the surface of the small shield, and with an explosion, they suddenly burst open.

However, Xu Ling had already made sufficient preparations for this situation.

An emerald green hedron the size of a thumb appeared in her hand, turning into a green light at her urging, leaving her palm and disappearing into the curtain of light that was on the verge of collapse.

Under the fusion of this emerald green spar, green lines also appeared on the surface of the light curtain, and it became stable again.

From the outside world, it can be found that the surrounding icy wind is constantly impacting this light curtain, and every impact of the gang wind will make those green lines existing on the surface of the light curtain lose a part.

After three breaths, these green lines were completely wiped out by the countless winds around them.

The light curtain also returned to its original state at this moment. However, due to the great improvement of the power of the surrounding icy wind, the frequency of vibration of the light curtain has become faster and faster, and the cracks on the surface of the light curtain have also increased.

"Go!" At this time, Zhao Ling took out the two defensive treasures he had said before.

Both Defensive Treasures are in the shape of shields, but they differ significantly in appearance.

One of the shields, with a silver color and a pale gold spirit pattern, looks extremely delicate.

The other shield looked like a shoddy thing, but from its inside, it exuded an incomparably rich spiritual charm.

Under the urging of Zhao Ling, the two shields flew up one after the other and merged into the light curtain.

After the integration of the two shields, the defensive ability of the light curtain also began to be greatly improved. If you look closely, you can see that in the light curtain, there are phantoms of two shields.

At this moment, the light curtain was constantly resisting the icy wind around them, providing sufficient guarantee for them to move forward smoothly.

Now it seems that everything is so smooth. Soon, they were able to climb all the steps and successfully reach the second floor of the palace.

Soon, however, they discovered the variables.

An unknown force appeared at their feet, and the appearance of this force greatly slowed down their forward speed.

In this way, it is unknown whether they will be able to reach the second layer smoothly.

"It's a bit bad!" Zhao Ling's face was a little unsightly.

Such a variable was something he hadn't considered before.

"Anyway, let's speed up a little bit more!" Zhao Ling finished speaking, and the speed was increased again.

The other eight people also immediately began to speed up, but soon new problems appeared.

Except for Mo Ye, the other five Spiritual Realm cultivators have increased their speed to the limit, and they can't continue to improve upward.

In order to take care of them, the rest of the people had to maintain their speed to the same level as them.

Otherwise, at the speed of the five of them, they would soon fall behind. At that time, out of the shelter of the light curtain, they would immediately be shattered by the cold wind around them.

After a while, in the light curtain, the phantom of one of the shields began to fade rapidly.

The shield whose power has disappeared is the more delicate side on the outside.

The other side looks like a shoddy shield, which can hold up for a while, depending on the situation.

However, at their current speed, it would be impossible to reach the second layer before the power of the second shield was exhausted without speeding up.

As if sensing this situation, the expressions of the five Spiritual Realm cultivators also changed slightly.

"Don't panic, I'm your senior brother, and I won't abandon you!" Zhao Ling said.

After hearing Zhao Ling's words, the five of them were relieved, and at the same time, they also felt a little guilty in their hearts.

After all, the inability to speed up this situation is due to them.

After another period of time, the strength of the second shield was about to be exhausted.

But they were still more than twenty steps away from the ground on the second floor.

In the position they were in now, the icy wind had become very terrifying. Just through the light curtain, they could feel the powerful power contained within these icy winds.

When the power of the second shield completely disappeared, I am afraid that it would only take a moment for the surrounding icy wind to tear apart the light curtain.

At that time, with the cultivation of the six people of the Ink Night Spiritual Realm, they did not have the slightest ability to resist in the face of these icy winds.

Perhaps, only the three cultivators of the Spirit Liquid Realm of Zhao Ling had a chance to resist these icy winds and successfully reach the second layer of the palace.

But suddenly, Zhao Ling quickly slashed the long sword across his fingers, and a drop of blood overflowed from the wound.

This drop of blood is crystal clear, and the rich vitality is constantly emanating from its interior.

"Go!" Zhao Ling waved one hand, and the drop of blood on his finger was thrown out by him and submerged into the light curtain.

Under the fusion of this drop of blood, blood-colored lines suddenly appeared on the surface of the light curtain. At the same time, the aura emitted by the light curtain began to skyrocket, and the defense began to increase again.

Soon, the power of the second shield completely disappeared. However, due to the fusion of that drop of blood, the light curtain did not collapse the moment the power of the second shield disappeared.

Although the light curtain was temporarily maintained, Zhao Ling's face was a little pale.

What he sacrificed just now was the essence blood in his body. Under the urging of the secret method, this drop of essence blood also replaced the power of the shield and continued to maintain the normal existence of the light curtain.

With this skill, everyone crossed several steps again, and there were less than ten steps left from the ground of the second layer.

Thankfully, there were no twists and turns along the way, and soon they reached the final staircase and finally reached the second floor.

After reaching the second layer, the icy wind that filled them disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Moreover, in the entire second layer, there is no longer that kind of cold aura.

"The cold breath is gone. After Zhao Ling found out about this situation, he immediately withdrew the light curtain that was already collapsing.

The rest of the people immediately breathed a sigh of relief and began to look around.

Soon, a group of monks came into their sight. Along with the monks, there was a huge white ball of light.

At the same time, strong spiritual power fluctuations also appeared in that direction.

"Shall we recover in place first?" Xu Ling asked.

"No, let's go over directly, the other party has already discovered us!" Zhao Ling said calmly.

His complexion had returned to normal at this moment, and if he just looked at his appearance, it was absolutely impossible to know that he had just suffered a lot of loss.

"Okay then!" Xu Ling nodded.

Now that those people have discovered them, wouldn't they be openly showing the other party the emptiness of strength on their side if they are pranayama in place?

The nine of them all took a recovery pill and walked slowly towards it. After a while, they clearly saw the huge white ball of light suspended in mid-air.

The ball of light is very large, and there are artifacts scattered inside, which are suspended in the ball of light, all exuding a rich spiritual charm.

The fluctuations of spiritual power they felt were the result of these monks' continuous attacks on the ball of light.

"Look at the way they look, they want to get what is inside!" Xu Fatzi smiled.

"I guess they're already looking at us as a competitor by this time. Xu Ling said, with a puzzled look on his face, "But these monks don't seem to be from the Ten Thousand Evil Alliance!"

"Let's go over and get in touch first. Zhao Ling said.

When they approached, they immediately knew each other's strength.

Among that group of monks, there were four Spiritual Liquid Realms and five Spiritual Realms. Among them, the cultivation of the cultivators of the Spiritual Realm has reached the peak of the Spiritual Realm, and the monks of the four Spiritual Liquid Realm have two late Spiritual Liquid Realm and two Spiritual Liquid Realm mid-stage.

With such strength, they naturally have little chance of winning in the face of their peak state. However, now that they had just reached the second layer, the consumption that appeared had not yet had time to replenish it. Therefore, if you confront these people, they will probably spend a lot of effort.

The two monks from the late stage of the Liquid Realm stopped their attacks and walked towards them.

"Dare to ask where you Daoist friends came from?" one of them asked with a smile.

"Ask the Heavenly School Palace. Zhao Ling spoke calmly.

Hearing these four words, the faces of these two people changed instantly. Soon, however, they recovered.

"It turns out that you are fellow Daoists of the Heavenly Academy Palace, and the Heavenly Academy Palace is a holy place for cultivators like us to yearn for!" one of them sighed.

"Fellow Daoists from the Heavenly Academy Palace, would you like to join us to open the secret storage here?" the other asked.

"Oh?" said Fat Xu, with an interested look.

Seeing Fat Xu's expression, they immediately spoke: "We've actually been here for a while, but there hasn't been any progress on that ball of light. If you fellow Daoists help us, the time it takes to break through this ball of light will be greatly shortened. ”

"We help you, what can we get?" said Fat Xu.

"Four-six, you four and we six. One of them said immediately.

"Yes, but it has to be the other way around. Fat Xu narrowed his eyes.

"This ......" One of them was about to say something, but was quickly interrupted by the other.

After interrupting, the man also nodded immediately: "We agreed to your request, but after getting the treasure, you can't attack us." I think that the people of the Heavenly Academy should keep their promises!"

"This is nature!" Zhao Ling nodded.

In this way, the two sides reached a consensus. Mo Ye and his group of nine people began to join the battle to break the ball of light.
