Even so, ten thousand years was barely a correct estimation since his improvement in each stage of the Martial Way was extremely different compared to in his previous world with the effects of shinsu so it was a very rough estimation.

Liu Guanyi could just improve more than quintuple in power when he advanced to the next stage of the Martial Way because of the effects of shinsu on inner energy. Hence, he couldn't be so sure until he actually reached the higher stages himself.

Maybe when he had regained his past zenith, he could easily live up to one hundred thousand years?

He didn't know that for sure, but there was one thing for sure… Liu Guanyi was very excited to find them out themselves. When he had finished the journey of climbing the tower and becoming a Ranker, how powerful would he be?

"Hmmm?" His chain of thoughts was interrupted as he felt some tickling on the back of his back.

When he looked back, he instantly spotted the cause. "Oh! I almost forget about you Mirotic guardian, my bad. But I can't help it, your presence is so minuscule that I can't even remember that you are even here."

Liu Guanyi spoke with such undisguised sarcasm that even made the usually deadpan guardian look like a person who could fully express their emotions as he glared furiously at Liu Guanyi, and if a glare could kill, Liu Guanyi would have been dead already.

The guardian created more than a dozen of spears in fury. However, when he was about to launch them at what he deemed as an incredibly infuriating cockroach, a sword encased in white light stabbed his chest from behind.

Even his blank face showed a little sign of surprise.

He didn't detect anything about the attacker and he was suddenly already stabbed through his chest. The attacker didn't care about his surprise, however, as the blade was dragged upward, slicing through the guardian's tall body to his head, splitting his upper body cleanly into two.

The attacker jumped back to the ground with a graceful landing as her beautiful long white hair swayed in the air, and sheathed back her sword.

"He is much better quiet." Adori spoke softly.

"Unfortunately, he won't be quiet for long, just look at that." Liu Guanyi pointed at the sliced guardian.

Oddly, the guardian didn't shed any blood even when his body was almost separated into two. Even when they looked at his insides, there weren't any human-like organs visible from the bisected section of his body. Instead, there were only red thingy lumps that ought to serve as his "muscles".

Even his head didn't have the brain or anything inside it other than those red lumps of muscles. Overall, his appearance looked like some kind of artificial human. The Mirotic guardian looked like a human from his outer appearance, but from inside, he wasn't anything resembling a human being.

This was even more obvious as his separated body dissolved and turned into shinning particles floating in the air. The particles started to gather and combined themselves little by little. Soon, they formed a figure of a head, and then an upper body.

The particles continued to assemble and merge, and eventually formed a full figure of a tall human. The figure began to take a shape as curves morphed on its body, and it quickly became the perfect exact figure of the guardian with his long turquoise hair and ascetic hooded robe without any injuries on his body as if he hadn't been cleaved into two just a moment ago.

"It's quite incredible how the guardian can recover very fast." Liu Guanyi commented after seeing the whole process and witnessed how magical it was.

Although it seemed long, the process itself had only taken less than thirty seconds which was a miraculous feat by all means. Even at his zenith, Liu Guanyi couldn't just recover himself that easily if he was sliced apart in half.

"Indeed, it's not bad. The Workshop is truly wondrous and deeper than what it lets on like what you have assumed. To get the Administrator to help them set up something like this isn't as simple as it seems." Adori nodded in agreement.

Liu Guanyi leaped over to the newly recovered guardian and struck his head hard until it flew off his body before it could even twitch his fingers. However, the body and the flying head simply turned into the shiny particles and began to restructure themselves again, and quickly morphed into the Mirotic guardian.

As the guardian regained its recognition, he saw Liu Guanyi walking over to his way with a fearful expression. Although the guardian didn't feel any pain, being resurrected again in a second after he had just been resurrected wasn't an enjoyable experience for him.

Wasn't this just the 35th floor? How in the tower could there be extremely powerful regulars around, so powerful that they could defeat him in a single attack?

Weren't they just D-ranked regulars?

The guardian's artificial mind was in a mess.

Unfortunately, Liu Guanyi didn't care about what he was thinking and kicked hard on his shin, breaking the leg and bending it inwardly. Without the support of his right leg, the guardian stumbled and fell to his knees, making his head at the same level of height as Liu Guanyi's.

"I really have to thank the Workshop for creating you. You are perfect for a punching target." Liu Guanyi spoke to the Mirotic guardian's face with a smile.

After saying that, Liu Guanyi punched his face, breaking his teeth. Then without giving the Mirotic guardian the chance to recover and retaliate, he kicked the other leg, completely disabling the Mirotic guardian's mobility.

Martial Art: Demon's Carnage!

Both of Liu Guanyi's fists turned into deep red blood color as blood overflowed into them, and as the blood pumped into his fists, the inner energy also flowed along with the blood, filling them with unadulterated power.

Liu Guanyi quickly unleashed the power within his fists into a barrage of deadly strikes at the defenseless Mirotic guardian, landing each of his powerful punches right at his body, wracking apart the guardian into pieces.
