“Don’t you find it especially interesting to fight against yourself?”

The Sword Emperor controlled Mo Xiao’s body and casually waved the long sword in his hand, grinning. “Moreover, it’s a rare opportunity to defeat yourself. Why do you seem reluctant?”

Listening to the Sword Emperor’s words, the Sword Emperor’s remnant soul seed to beco sowhat displeased.

However, as a remnant soul, it was a re shadow, making it impossible to discern its expression.

Looking at the motionless remnant soul, the Sword Emperor chuckled. Without saying anything, he raised his sword and attacked it.

Seeing this, the Sword Emperor’s remnant soul’s expression stiffened, and it quickly followed suit, raising its long sword and launching an attack on Mo Xiao in the sa manner.

“Ding!”

Accompanied by a crisp sound of tal colliding, their longswords collided.

The mont the two swords collided, the longswords in Mo Xiao and the Sword Emperor’s remnant soul turned into afterimages at the sa ti, madly colliding in mid-air.

Their speed was so fast that not even Mo Xiao’s War God senses could fully grasp it.

If not for the Sword Emperor controlling his body, Mo Xiao would have likely been defeated long ago.

Thirty minutes later.

The Sword Emperor’s remnant soul’s health was already at the bottom, but Mo Xiao still had 50% of his health remaining.

As Mo Xiao’s final sword pierced the Sword Emperor’s remnant soul, the last bit of its HP was taken away.

“The physical data in the Heaven-reaching Tower is still lacking in aning. This sword doesn’t feel quite right either. Otherwise, 1 wouldn’t have wasted 30 minutes dealing with you,” Mo Xiao said as he looked at the Sword Emperor in front of him, calmly sheathing his sword.

With that, the Sword Emperor’s illusory form flew out of Mo Xiao’s body and silently watched the Sword Emperor’s remnant soul whose HP had reached zero not far away.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to co with ? You’ve already been defeated by . How are you going to co with ?” the Sword Emperor asked.

The Sword Emperor’s residual soul shook its head gently. “Going with you was my idea, but right now, I’m just data, a replication of the power within the remnant soul.”

“Replicating the power of the residual soul?” Hearing this, Mo Xiao was slightly stunned. Clearly, he was a little puzzled by the Sword Emperor’s remnant soul’s words.

The Sword Emperor’s remnant soul glanced at Mo Xiao and said indifferently, “I can’t say the details. I’ve only stayed in this Heavenly-reaching Tower for a period of ti. I only know that there are many souls of experts in this Heavenly-reaching Tower. Be careful…”

With that, the Sword Emperor’s remnant soul directly turned into specks of starlight and disappeared.

[You killed the guardian boss of the 30th level! The remnant soul of the Sword Emperor! Congratulations to Mo Xiao, the challenger! You have passed the 30th level!]

[Do you want to go to the next level?]

“This level is so difficult, but there are no rewards?” Looking at the system notification in front of him, Mo Xiao asked in confusion.

The Sword Emperor looked at Mo Xiao and replied, “The guardians of this floor are always random, and while they are all formidable, not all of them are as powerful as . So, there might not be rewards.”

Hearing the Sword Emperor’s words, Mo Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly. “Are you sure you’re not just praising yourself?”

“Oh? Really? I’m just stating a fact. Am 1 not aweso?” The Sword Emperor said smugly.

Mo Xiao looked at the Sword Emperor with a speechless expression. “Forget it, 1 don’t want to argue with you. Let’s rest for a while and continue to the next floor later. System, 1’11 take a break for now and continue later.”

With that, Mo Xiao sat down cross-legged again and rested quietly.

Outside the Heaven-reaching Tower, Yan Zhantian and the others were looking at Mo Xiao on the screen with serious expressions.

“Old Yao, did you see that?” Yan Zhantian asked seriously.

“Mm…” Yao Shi’er also nodded slightly. “Mo Xiao’s combat thod is almost identical to this Sword Emperor’s remnant soul… It can even be said that it’s even more brilliant than this Sword Emperor’s remnant soul…”

“This is definitely not a technique that a kid who has just transitioned can have…” Yan Zhantian’s expression was sowhat grim.

“Are you saying… Mo Xiao might not be human?” Yao Shier looked at Yan Zhantian with surprise.

“It’s a possibility. After all, as you ntioned before…” Yan Zhantian’s expression beca complicated.

While the two were pondering what was going on with Mo Xiao, Su Jin’er suddenly spoke up, “I just realized, are you two suspecting that Mo Xiao isn’t human?”

“Sort of.” Yan Zhantian nodded, “After all, Mo Xiao’s performance just now was too powerful. This is not sothing a teenage brat can do.”

When Su Jin’er heard this, she looked at the two of them with a strange expression and said, “Don’t you two know that… there’s a very powerful soul in Mo Xiao’s body?”

“What?” Hearing Su Jin’er’s words, Yan Zhantian and Yao Shi’er looked at Su Jin’er at the sa ti. Clearly, they were completely unaware of this matter.

Looking at their expressions, Su Jin’er continued, “Looks like you really don’t know…”

“Mo Xiao has a skill called ‘Sword Emperor’s Residual Soul,’ which allows him to summon a soul. This soul seems to be an ancient Sword Emperor who can not only guide Mo Xiao but also possess his body and fight in his place in critical situations.”

Su Jin’er continued, “The situation just now should be that ancient Sword Emperor possessing Mo Xiao’s body and fighting for him.”

“And there’s a possibility that this 3oth-floor Sword Emperor’s remnant soul is actually a part of the Sword Emperor inside Mo Xiao, but for so reason, it’s left in the Heaven-reaching Tower.”

Listening to Su Jiner’s explanation, Yan Zhantian, who had been worried about how to deal with the situation, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Phew… I was really scared there. Thank goodness you explained it, or I might have thought Mo Xiao had turned into so kind of monster. After all, his combat abilities are incredibly strong,” Yan Zhantian sighed in relief, and the seriousness on his face disappeared. “But how do you know about this skill? Did Mo Xiao tell you?”

“Yeah,” Su Jiner nodded. “Mo Xiao did tell about it. Most importantly, my ability allows to see these souls, so this Sword Emperor’s remnant soul is particularly wary of .”

Hearing this, Yao Shi’er nodded thoughtfully, “I see. So, you an that the Sword Emperor’s residual soul fought on Mo Xiao’s behalf on this 30th floor?”

“Not entirely,” Su Jiner shook her head. “When you praised Mo Xiao the first ti, he fought on his own. It was only later when he couldn’t hold on any longer that the Sword Emperor possessed him and fought for him.”

“Besides, the abilities he can control are, in a way, his own abilities, right? Master, you shouldn’t refuse to let your disciple pass just because of this, right?”
