Dong Qiong and the other eight people smelled the faint fragrance at the same time.
Looking around, there was no one else a hundred feet away except for the dozens of guards they had brought with them. Of course, in this icy and snowy environment, there were no fragrant flowers or plants.
Suddenly, the big demon said with tears in his eyes: "Look, our guards seem to have something wrong with their expressions."
Sure enough, the eight people looked around and saw that the guards seemed to be a little lost. Gradually, someone suddenly fell down. Going back, the people fell one after another...
What's even weirder is that those who fell didn't even make a sound.
"Who is the poison?" Hong Lei yelled angrily. But at this moment, the eight of them also felt a slight dizziness... they were poisoned.
The cultivation level of the eight of them is much higher than that of the guards, so their resistance is much stronger. But the key to the problem is that they are now using the "Magic Locking Whip". There is no room for carelessness.
Originally, the tower soul of Babel Tower, supported by that strange demonic power, was no match for the eight of them's divine locking whips. If they were to devote their attention to resisting the poisonous gas, they would gradually fail.
Dong Qiong has also discovered that his body seems to be a little numb, and his hands and feet are slightly cold. Although for powerful soul martial demons like them, ordinary poisons cannot have much effect. But in this extraordinary period, even if It can have a slight impact, but it is enough to be the straw that breaks the camel's back.
"What to do?" Dongqiong asked in shock. "Master Feng Hall, you make up your mind." This sentence is equivalent to kicking the ball to Hall Master Feng Hall.
The Master of the Feng Hall was also in a dilemma. His superiors spoke. They must refine the tower soul of the Babel Tower and obtain the three star soul talismans. But judging from the current situation, it seems that it is impossible to refine the tower soul. If it is collected now At least it can ensure that the strength will not be greatly reduced. And if they wait until the refining fails, and even suffer the backlash of the tower soul, then everyone's strength will be greatly damaged. How will they suppress the thousands of disciples of Youyue Sect at that time.
If those disciples were incited by others to rise up and eight of them were seriously injured, it would almost be the end of them.
"Take back the Divine Locking Whip and think about it in the long term." Gritting his teeth, the Master of Feng Hall said bitterly.
As a result, the originally astonishing Divine Locking Whip gradually reduced its power. The length and thickness were constantly shrinking. When it reached a limit, eight people stopped their hands at the same time. The huge Divine Locking Whip immediately disappeared. So, the originally locked Divine Whip was reduced. The bright night sky illuminated by the divine whip suddenly dimmed again.
The tower soul seemed to shake slightly and then disappeared.
"Since things don't work out, then hurry back to your respective positions. Don't let the people below you rebel." The head of the Feng Hall said resolutely. "If there is anyone who dares to take the lead in causing trouble, kill him first. Also, carefully trace the poison." origin."
This sentence undoubtedly brought Youyue Sect into a bloody and terrifying period.
Dong Qiong looked at the Tower of Babel and said, "What if those important figures in the tower got the chance and lasted for a month?"
"Before the Tower of Babel is opened next time, let's come here first. Kill every one who comes out." The master of the Feng Hall said through gritted teeth. Now that he is on the boat this time, he must walk all the way to darkness. There is no room for turning back.
…
In the Tower of Babel, an inexplicable feeling of tension and oppression suddenly disappeared. No one knew what was going on. But Xu Yue looked at the roots of the spikes on the top of the tower. It seemed that a bright light suddenly flashed. She said with great joy: "That bright light suddenly flashed. Flashing means that the tower soul has returned to the tower body and entered a month of dormancy. Ah ha. The tower soul has succeeded."
Everyone was shocked at first, and then fell into ecstasy. Yes, the return of the tower soul meant that they no longer had to die with the Tower of Babel. So, everyone clapped their hands and congratulated each other.
At this time, the strange demonic power suddenly withdrew and disappeared on the platform at the bottom of the Tower of Babel. There was no trace. It was as if it had never appeared.
Chu Xiong turned around and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, we escaped this disaster."
"Did you really escape?" Yaoda frowned and said, "Without eating or drinking for a month, you can survive."
Yes. There is still this big trouble.
In fact, if Chu Xiong is more selfish, there may be no problem, because in his pocket, he hides eight "Bigu Pills" given to him by Yu. Every time he takes one, he will not be hungry or thirsty for three days and three nights. As long as If you are hungry, just eat one. It will definitely last a month.
But how could Chu Xiong just watch his companions fall down one by one, especially Qingdai and Yuqi in the tower.
"How long can it last? No matter how long it is." Chu Xiong said. "Ordinary people can only support it for seven days without eating or drinking. However, the body functions of soul warriors and beast monsters are powerful. They may be able to support it for more than ten days."
Yuqi knew what he meant. But Xu Yue smiled bitterly and said: "Ten days. So what about ten days later."
Chu Xiong reached into his arms and took out a jade box. He opened it and found eight pills the size of soybeans. "Bigu pills. I only have so many."
What... Xu Yue and Yao Da's eyes lit up at the same time, but then dimmed again. Yao Da said: "That's right. If you take it by yourself, even if four or five people take it, you can survive."
The implication is that there are too many people in the tower and it is impossible to rescue them one by one. Moreover, there are Chu Xiong's women and friends in the tower. This Bigu Pill belongs to Chu Xiong, so Chu Xiong must give it to them first.
Unexpectedly, Chu Xiong smiled bitterly and said: "I know what you mean. But now there is no other way. Qingdai, Yuqi. I must give them. Yihan and Xingao entered the Babel Tower because of me. I can't let them down. There are four left. One for each of the Young Sect Master and the Great Protector. The deacon of Qingfeng Villa is very concerned about me. I can’t just watch her fall in front of me."
In other words, Chu Xiong plans to distribute these eight Bigu Pills to Qing Dai, Yu Qi, Yi Han, Xing Ao, Ji Yu, Xu Yue, and Yao Da. He keeps the last one.
"Just keep one for yourself, you fool." Although Xu Yue was a little moved in her heart, she said: "In this case, the eight of us may not be able to survive. Forget it. I accept your wishes. But these bigu Dan, try to use it for yourself and the people around you."
Yao Da was also impressed by Chu Xiong's selflessness. In her opinion, the selfish nature of human beings should have prompted Chu Xiong to secretly keep these eight pills. However, Chu Xiong took them all out. "Young Sect Leader said so. It makes sense. I have lived for hundreds of years, so it doesn’t matter. Haha. However, I admire Chu Keqing’s character."
"The Great Protector can die for the sake of the sect. What do I do?" Chu Xiong said. "What I mean is that if we want to die, we will die together. If we want to live, we will live together."
In fact, Chu Xiong had other plans in his mind. If he, Qingdai and Yuqi took the elixir alone, even if they lasted for a month, would they be able to walk out of the Babel Tower alive by then? You must know that one month later, there must be Dong Qiong and others outside the Babel Tower. Guard. With the strength of myself, Yuqi and Qingdai, they are still dead as soon as they leave the tower gate.
In this case, it is better to drag Yaoda, a powerful superior seven-ring demon. With her here, at least she will be able to fight. And if she drags Xu Yue with her, it will also be extremely beneficial. She is You Yue after all. The young master of the sect is also the legal heir to the position of sect leader. As soon as she leaves the tower gate, as long as she climbs up and shouts, she will definitely gather a large number of diehard loyalists of Youyue Sect. From this perspective, her role is even more important than that of the sect leader. Yaoda is even bigger.
Of course, he could also choose not to give it to Yihan, Xing Ao and Ji Yu, but only pay Yaoda and Xu Yue's account. But in that case, he would owe Yihan and the others too much. With such a mental barrier. I estimate that I will never have an easy time in my life.
"Chu Keqing is really an upright man. If you are low in strength, you can practice. But high moral character is the most rare thing." Yaoda smiled. "But you should take the elixir first and use it when you need it most. Besides, people have arrived. It's a matter of life and death. Maybe your outlook on life and values will change. If Chu Keqing doesn't change his original intention at that time, it won't be too late for me to accept your kindness."
What a reasonable woman. Chu Xiong secretly admired her. When he wanted to force a Bigu Pill to Yaoda, he saw that Yaoda had already turned around and entered the training room.
Xu Yue also said at this time: "What the Great Protector said does make sense. So, so do I." As she said that, she turned and walked into her room.
Yu Qi smiled and looked at Chu Xiong. The latter was a little confused. Chu Xiong smiled bitterly and said: "Yu Qi, maybe I should give all these elixirs to you and Qing Dai..."
"Don't say that. To be honest, I'm really happy with what you did just now. Because my man is a very famous man."
Before Yuqi finished speaking, Qingdai's voice also sounded from behind. "Xiong. I support any decision you make."
Chu Xiong turned around and saw that Qingdai, Yihan, Xing Ao and Ji Yu had all come up. Seeing that the biggest crisis had been resolved, everyone came up to look for Chu Xiong. Unexpectedly, they were still on the stairs when they heard what Chu Xiong had just said.
Of course, a pill may be a debt to Qing Dai and Yu Qi. But to Yi Han, Xing Ao and Ji Yu, it is undoubtedly a huge gift. Because at this critical moment of life and death, it is equivalent to Chu Xiong giving himself up. The right to survive was divided into eight equal shares and each of them was given one share. Although it may not be able to survive in the end, it gave a glimmer of hope after all...the hope of survival.
"Brother, I understand your heart, but I don't want the Bigu Pill." Ji Yu's eyes were a little moist. She and Chu Xiong had only known each other for only a few days. But when the disaster was approaching, this man still thought about him. Mother and daughter.
"Uncle Chu, Yihan doesn't want it either. In fact, he can see the light for a few days. Yihan is already content." The little girl Yihan showed a maturity that was inconsistent with her age at this time. Perhaps in the face of the test of life and death. People always grow up very quickly.
As for Xing Ao, a remote person, he was still straightforward. "I owe you my whole life. I haven't paid it off yet. I don't want to owe you more." After saying that, this cold and arrogant man in white turned around without saying a word. hair.
A good person is a good person after all. No matter what his personality is. Chu Xiong suddenly felt that it was actually a blessing for him to know these friends in the soul martial world.
"Abandoning friends and living alone is better than not living at all." Chu Xiong said with a smile. "Let's do this for now. Let's go to my practice room first. Relax and recuperate. Don't practice. It's best not to talk too much. Just maintain a little energy. a little."
With that said, Chu Xiong walked into his room, and the others also went in. Since they don't have to practice anymore, they don't care about separate rooms. And if everyone is together, everything can be taken care of. After all, in this Babel Tower There are other people at the moment of life and death. Who knows whether other people's minds will be distorted. Chu Xiong has experienced it countless times in his previous life. The evil that breaks out when a person is on the verge of death is often unimaginable.
Just like when he and his father Chu Yun first entered the Dawu Mountains, they faced the big demons Jian Senmu and Bingxi and Gengli, the chiefs of the Chishui tribe. Didn't they show that kind of incomprehensible ugliness? Bingxi even threw her daughter Bi to Chu Yun as a "gift". When Bi chose life and death, didn't she also choose to let her biological father Bingxi die? This is true for biological father and daughter, not to mention the other people in the Tower of Babel. people.
Chu Xiong's guess was correct. After the other people in the Tower of Babel calmed down from the short-term excitement, they all realized that "eating" was a top priority. As a result, a feeling of uneasiness and anxiety spread. In the end, they finally... Out of control...
