Xiao Ningyue herself possesses a Cultivation of the Qi Condensation Third Layer, combined with the special nature of Profound Yin Qi, her true strength is enough to rival Martial Cultivators at the Middle Stage of Qi Condensation.

However, the Guardian Puppet of the Ninth Layer Tower's First Layer only has strength equivalent to a Martial Cultivator at the Qi Condensation First Layer.

Therefore, Xiao Ningyue had no problem defeating it.

In an instant, that Profound Yin Qi directly engulfed the Two-winged Black Tiger's body, which was almost powerless to resist, and was frozen into an ice sculpture.

Following that, Xiao Ningyue gently waved her palm, and suddenly a gust of wind swept out, then the ice sculpture of the Two-winged Black Tiger shattered into ice fragments on the ground.

Without delay, Xiao Ningyue continued to move towards the Second Layer of the First Layer.

At this moment, those watching outside saw the Second Layer of the First Layer lit up.

"So fast, not even ten breaths, and she's passed the First Layer."

Everyone showed expressions of surprise; even though they could see Xiao Ningyue had the Cultivation of the Qi Condensation Third Layer, her quick defeat of the Guardian Puppet on the First Layer still left them amazed.

By now, Xiao Ningyue had reached the Second Layer, discovering that the Guardian Puppets here were also Two-winged Black Tigers, but there were two of them.

Of course, to her, this level of Guardian Puppets, regardless of the quantity, were easy for her to defeat effortlessly.

As she activated her mind, again a wave of Profound Yin Qi swept out, attacking the two Two-winged Black Tigers.

The outcome was predictable; these two Two-winged Black Tigers were also instantly frozen into ice sculptures, which Xiao Ningyue gently shattered into ice fragments on the ground.

Just like the First Layer, Xiao Ningyue defeated the Guardian Puppets effortlessly within a few breaths and passed through.

Following this, with shaking eyes, the crowd watched as Xiao Ningyue quickly conquered layer after layer.

"Boss, Sister Yue's strength is indeed strong. When I passed through, the first six layers were quick, but starting from the Seventh Layer, the Guardian Puppets were equivalent to Martial Cultivators at the Qi Condensation Third Layer. I could defeat them, but it took a lot of time."

Qian Duoduo said with a smile to Wang Ruoxie.

"Although Ningyue's Cultivation is only at the Qi Condensation Third Layer, her true strength is enough to rival Martial Cultivators at the Middle Stage of Qi Condensation, perhaps even stronger."

Wang Ruoxie also smiled upon hearing this and began speaking.

He was naturally aware of Xiao Ningyue's strength, perhaps even clearer than Xiao Ningyue herself about the potent battle strength that the Nine Yin Profound Body could unleash.

Previously, he conservatively estimated that Xiao Ningyue could pass the Ninth Layer Tower's First Layer. Now it seems that passing the Second Layer is also very likely.

"Brother Dugu, is the Guardian Puppet of the Fifth Layer very strong?"

Wang Ruoxie turned his gaze towards Dugu Mo.

With his eyesight, he could see that even though Dugu Mo had the Cultivation of the Qi Condensation Sixth Layer, his true strength probably surpassed that of ordinary Martial Cultivators at the Late Stage of Qi Condensation.

But even so, Dugu Mo could not pass the First Layer of the Fifth Layer, indicating the Guardian Puppet's strength must far surpass the Late Stage of Qi Condensation, perhaps reaching the threshold of a Half-step Purple Mansion Realm level.

"Yes, very strong, comparable to the genius strong at the Half-step Purple Mansion Realm."

Dugu Mo nodded in response.

"Indeed."

After hearing Dugu Mo's words, Wang Ruoxie thought silently.

It seems even Dugu Mo needs to breakthrough to the Late Stage of Qi Condensation to pass the Fifth Layer of the Ninth Layer Tower.

It is known that between the same Cultivation Realm, the strength gap between ordinary Martial Cultivators and genius strong can indeed be very significant.

The Guardian Puppet of the First Layer of the Fifth Layer has strength comparable to a genius strong at the Half-step Purple Mansion Realm, meaning that ordinary Martial Cultivators at the Half-step Purple Mansion Realm almost have a tough time passing through.

However, he is confident that just by having his Cultivation breakthrough to the Late Stage of Qi Condensation, even with just the Qi Condensation Sixth Layer's Cultivation, he will have a great chance of passing the Fifth Layer of the Ninth Layer Tower.

As for now, his target is the Second Layer; given his Cultivation at the Ninth Layer of Essence Pill Realm, passing the Second Layer of the Ninth Layer Tower should already be his limit.

"Look, the Second Layer is also lit up."

At this moment, a cry of shock came from the crowd; everyone focused their gaze and saw that indeed three floors of the Ninth Layer Tower's Second Layer had been lit.

Which means Xiao Ningyue, with only the Qi Condensation Third Layer's Cultivation, has not only passed the First Layer but is challenging the Second Layer, having already passed three levels consecutively.

"Incredible, did I see incorrectly, is her Cultivation not at the Qi Condensation Third Layer, but at least at the Middle Stage of Qi Condensation?"

"It's impossible to see wrong, she indeed has only the Cultivation of the Qi Condensation Third Layer, but her ability to pass even three levels of the Second Layer proves her strength is comparable to true Middle Stage Qi Condensation, perhaps even stronger."

"Such a monstrous genius must be a peerless prodigy."

"Passed another level, at such quick speed."

"With her strength, even at the level of the Middle Stage of Qi Condensation, she must indeed be amongst top-tier powerhouses."

Watching the ever-brightening tower levels, everyone showed expressions of shock, exclaiming repeatedly.

"It seems Sister Yue has no issues passing the Second Layer."

Qian Duoduo also exclaimed with shock.

Being of the same Qi Condensation Third Layer Cultivation, he stopped at the First Layer while Xiao Ningyue could pass the Second Layer, highlighting the huge disparity in their strength.

Even on Dugu Mo's cold, stone-like face, a surprised expression appeared, apparently unexpected at Xiao Ningyue's extraordinary strength.

But Wang Ruoxie remained calm, seeing Xiao Ningyue passing the Second Layer as entirely expected.

If Xiao Ningyue fully unleashed the power of her Nine Yin Profound Body, passing the Third Layer would also be possible.

A moment later, the eighteen layers of the lit-up Ninth Layer Tower finally dimmed again.

Soon after, Xiao Ningyue walked out from the Ninth Layer Tower.

"How do you feel?"

Wang Ruoxie smiled at Xiao Ningyue and spoke.

"The First Layer was not difficult at all, and the first six levels of the Second Layer weren't very hard either, but the Guardian Puppets of the Seventh Layer have strength equivalent to Martial Cultivators at the Qi Condensation Sixth Layer, and the Puppets on the eighth and ninth levels are similar but in greater numbers."

Xiao Ningyue walked beside Wang Ruoxie and replied, "I had to use full strength to finally pass through."

"If my Cultivation can breakthrough to the Fourth Layer of Qi Condensation, I could definitely attempt the Third Layer."

"You've already done very well."

Upon hearing Xiao Ningyue's words, Wang Ruoxie chuckled lightly, saying, "Next, it's my turn."

"Yes, be careful."

Xiao Ningyue nodded slightly and smiled.

Wang Ruoxie nodded in return and then stepped forward towards the Ninth Layer Tower.
