Zhou Tian thought it was her mother calling him, but her mother's figure appeared in front of him for no apparent reason.
"Is that you, mother?"
The floating shadow sometimes appeared in front of his eyes, and sometimes disappeared. Zhou Tian circled back and forth on the empty ground on the second floor, like a headless fly.
Just as he was running around in a daze, he didn't know whether it was a person or a shadow standing in front of him, holding a knife in his hand and stabbing it straight into his chest.
Zhou Tian shivered, his eyes darkened and he fell to the ground, his breathing slowed down.
When he opened his eyes again, everything around him had changed, as if in a dream, with stars dotting the surroundings. Although it looked beautiful, everything in the void made Zhou Tian feel very bad: "Am I dead? He just stabbed me.
Who is the person who stabbed me? Why can’t I remember it?”
"Tian'er! Tian'er~"
That voice still lingered in Zhou Tian's ears, but no matter what, his body was floating in the sea of stars, so limp that he couldn't feel his own weight.
Zhou Tian slowly closed his eyes again. The strange thing was that he could not enter the illusion. He panicked. Was he really dead?
Zhou Tian kept denying himself, but while wandering, he heard his father's voice.
"Zhou Tian! Wake up! Zhou Tian."
The voice was clear and loud. He used all his strength to activate the sea of qi, and a few strands of black hair slowly spread out from his body. He tried to wake himself up, and his body began to shake.
After a while, when Zhou Tian felt his feet standing on the ground, he suddenly opened his eyes and found that he was still standing on the flat ground on the second floor. Although there were still no furnishings around him, he was extremely awake at this time.
I accidentally looked up and found something that looked like a dragon's mouth on the roof of the second floor, spitting out white gas.
Zhou Tian jumped up and punched him, and then the chaotic surroundings gradually became clear and bright.
He took a closer look and found that there were different murals and texts on the wall of the second floor. He stepped forward and took a closer look, only to realize that the second floor was the so-called illusion. After the illusion was cracked, the body was filled with
It will gain immunity to all illusions, and it is permanent.
Zhou Tianzhuan sighed with worry and joy: "It turns out that was just a fantasy..."
Zhou Tian didn't know why this happened. He only knew that it was his father's guidance that allowed him to escape in time. Otherwise, according to the reminder of the mural, he would remain in the illusion of the void until he was consumed alive.
die.
Zhou Tian, who was very scared just thinking about it, looked at the surrounding walls again and built a spiral staircase that spiraled upward.
He walked up the spiral staircase to the third floor. Although he didn't know what challenges there would be in the future, Zhou Tian seemed to understand something after passing the trial on the second floor.
But the group of people outside the tower were muttering to each other endlessly. It had been three or four hours since Zhou Tian entered the tower. Ouyang Canglin and Yelegu kept looking at the statue in front of them.
When Zhou Tian passed the second floor, a puff of white smoke suddenly floated out from the entrance of the statue. Yalegu counted it with his fingers and said softly and disdainfully: "This Zhou Tian is indeed somewhat capable. The one on the second floor
If the illusionist didn’t have a strong willpower, he would probably be dead long ago.”
"It really impressed me, but it gets more and more difficult as you go up. It took him three or four hours to pass the first two floors, and it may take even longer after that. I think we should go back separately first, and we can't be alone because of Zhou Tian.
And waste the cultivation of these disciples."
Although Yelugu was arrogant and domineering, he still cared deeply about his disciples.
After Ouyang Canglin heard this, he loudly condemned these disciples one after another. In the end, only he and Rong Bai from Tianjian Sect were left.
Rong Bai looked at the statue and couldn't see his head at all. At this time, Ouyang Canglin slowly walked over, and his eyes were always watching Rong Bai's every move.
"Brother, you have also heard what Elder Yelu said. This tower has a total of forty-nine floors. Each floor is more difficult than the next. If you continue to wait here, I am afraid you will have to wait for a long time.
, why don't you go back now, or stay in Xuantian Sect temporarily, and when there is news about the new sect leader, I will definitely inform you first."
Rong Bai looked at the statue, and then at the Xuantian Sect disciples who were gradually retreating behind him. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Okay, then I'll go back first, and I'll come back in three days."
Rongba held the silver gun across his chest and was about to throw it into the air when Ouyang Canglin stopped him in time: "Wait a minute, when you came here you said you wanted to deal with Haotian Pavilion together, can you tell me, anyway, I am too
The people of Xuantian Sect also hate Haotian Pavilion deeply. If you tell me, if the new sect leader can come out smoothly, I can tell you in time."
Rong Bai looked him up and down, and then said: "It's okay to tell you that Patriarch Haotian of Haotian Pavilion has been cultivating for so long and has almost recovered, and he will attack Tianjian Sect first; our sect leader just wants to fight with him.
When you, Xuantian Sect, joined forces, you originally wanted to find Zhou Chuji, but now Zhou Tian is the new sect leader, and because you have interacted with him before, you came here specifically to ask."
After saying that, Rong Bai thought for a while: "Forget it, I'll just wait here."
At this time, there were only two of them left in front of the statue. They stood motionless, their eyes moving back and forth. They turned their heads and looked at the toes of the statue, thinking silently: After the ancestor Haotian recovered, he would attack the Tianjian Sect. If the Tianjian Sect
Joining forces with Xuantian Sect, his Haotian Ancestor will definitely not be his opponent, but if he helps Tianjian Sect, will he become his most powerful scourge in the future? After repeated consideration, he still can't make a decision and can only continue to watch.
Holding a tall tower.
At this moment, although it was already afternoon, the sky was very clear today and there was no sign of rain at all, but now suddenly dark clouds came over, thunder and lightning struck, and a bolt of lightning struck the statue vertically, frightening the two of them.
A jump.
It turned out that Zhou Tian in the tower was fighting with someone, and this person was the tower guard on the third floor. He looked very weak, but he was very powerful when fighting, and his state was something Zhou Tian had never seen before, because
This person has no Qihai blessing at all.
So he used the Heaven Sealing Blade to activate the thunder and lightning in the sky, causing the bright sky to suddenly become filled with dark clouds.
After being slashed several times, the man was still unscathed.
"Who are you? You have passed the first two levels at such a young age, and your willpower and intelligence are pretty good."
You can clearly see the skin and bones of the tower guard, and his thin and sallow cheeks made Zhou Tian look very awkward, so he opened his mouth and asked: "Who are you? Why are you on the third floor of this tower?
Is Gui Geng this year?”
The tower guard slowly walked up to Zhou Tian with his hands behind his back and smiled: "You don't need to know who I am. Everyone calls me the tower guard. Although there are many people in this high tower who want to try, they can pass me smoothly.
There are only a handful of people on the first floor, so why do you want to enter the tower to challenge it again?"
Zhou Tian told him everything as if chatting. After hearing this, the tower guard lowered his head and thought for a long time. He couldn't help but shake his head: "The Zhou Chuji you mentioned did pass through my floor, and this tower seven
On the 749th floor, Zhou Chuji is the most challenged."
"You said you are a disciple of the academy or a close disciple of the Master. Why do you still have these two weapons, the Sealing Blade and the Blue Whale."
Zhou Tian saw that he knew quite a lot, so he told him everything about these days in the most concise language. After hearing this, the tower guard was quite shocked, looked at it carefully, Zhou Tian smiled and said: "No
When I think about it, at such a young age, I have encountered a lot of things."
After that, the tower guard pulled out a long whip from behind, and the long whip was made of white bones.
Zhou Tian took half a step back and looked at the surroundings, which were no different from those on the second level: "So you used a long whip. They say that long whips are the natural enemies of knives. I don't believe this evil."
So he raised the Sealing Blade and slashed it down again.
Outside the tower, there was still lightning and thunder, making the entire Xuantian Sect restless. The disciples originally wanted to continue practicing, but the sudden weather made them very irritable.
"What the hell is the weather like? It was clear just now, but now there's lightning and thunder, and it's so dark that you can't even see what's ahead."
"That's right, you said it would be fine if it rained, but it's just thundering, which is really annoying."
The disciples were discussing in a noisy manner. At this time, one disciple said: "Could it be the tower causing trouble? Let's go to the area near the tower and take a look."
So, these disciples moved to the front of the tower again and saw that Ouyang Canglin and Rong Bai still hadn't left.
"Canglin, what's going on here!"
A disciple asked and looked up. Sure enough, the thunder and lightning was generated around the statue.
"this?"
Ouyang Canglin saw him so flustered and didn't explain anything. He kept staring above.
Zhou Tian saw that his sword skills were no match for the tower guard, so he used the tiger-shaped Longyi Fist while juggling the knife. He punched to the flesh and thought he had a chance to win, but the tower guard gently used his shoulder.
Leaning on Zhou Tian's chest, there was a powerful shock that directly bounced Zhou Tian out and hit the opposite wall heavily.
Zhou Tian spurted out a stream of blood, and his heart beat faster and faster.
The disciples outside saw the dark clouds dissipate, and the disciples who became more and more interested in the tower did not want to leave, and looked straight up.
Suddenly some dust and debris fell from the outer wall.
Ouyang Canglin was startled. Now that it was already evening, he finally saw the noise. He leaned over and looked at the debris on the ground and smelled it. He couldn't help but said to himself: "It seems there is a battle inside."
"Boy, although your sword is not very good, your boxing skills are still very good. If you practice a little more, you will be extraordinary in the future."
Zhou Tian looked at the tower guard in front of him and thought to himself, no matter what moves he used, he could easily defeat him. If he continued like this, he would not be able to get through this level at all; besides, he said that this tower has a total of forty-nine
layer, if it continues to be delayed, it may take a long time to pass completely.
Thinking of this, he retreated to the wall behind him, mobilized the energy in his body and looked at the tower guard in front of him firmly and said: "Senior, why do you stay here if you are so powerful? Isn't it a waste of all your skills?"
The tower guard looked at him with his back against the wall, curled up and thought: "Haha, who said that you have to go out with all your skills? This tower was built by the originator of Xuantian Sect, and there is nothing to gain here.
As long as you can successfully pass the level, you can come in and draw from this tower at any time."
"The inexhaustible sea of qi? But there is nothing special here. The sea of qi is the result of one's own cultivation. How can it be interfered by the outside world? How can it be absorbed?"
When Zhou Tian heard what he said, he felt a little unbelievable. He smiled and said nothing, but stared closely behind the tower guard.
The tower guard smiled and said: "This statue originally existed in Xihuan. Later, that old stubborn Zhou Chuji discovered it and moved it here. I think you also know these days that this statue cannot be seen outside the sect.
Yes, you can't see it even if you get to the sect. You can only notice it when you get to the soles of the statue. Haven't you ever thought about why this is the case?"
Regarding this issue, Zhou Tian had doubts. He frowned and said nothing, but the tower guard smiled: "It is precisely because at the top of the tower, there is a Qi Sea storage device, which was also the original Xuantian Sect's
Created by the originator, it can absorb the sea of qi within a hundred miles and store it for its own use, so people who do not have enough qi sea themselves cannot observe this place from a distance."
Zhou Tian nodded in understanding, but his eyes suddenly turned serious. He saw that the tower guard seemed to have relaxed his vigilance, and kicked the wall behind him hard with his heels. In an instant, he used the Bliss Floating Shadow. There were five people in total including himself and the shadow.
, and instantly ran towards the tower guard.
The tower guard looked up, his expression a little nervous, and then he struck with a palm, which was indeed Zhou Tian's shadow. Just when he reacted, Zhou Tian's body was already behind him, and then he punched him.
Behind the tower guard, this punch was really hard, and the sound of the contact between the fist and the back spine could be heard very clearly.
The guardian staggered forward a few steps and almost fell.
After turning around, his face was red from holding back, and he looked at Zhou Tian who had a ferocious look on his face at first, but then he laughed.
"Blissful Shadow? What a good method. He is worthy of being Master's personal disciple. If he hadn't used secret methods like you back then, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been so easy to reach the top and get the Qi Source Avenue. Haha, Confucian scholars can teach you."
Although Zhou Tian knocked him back a few steps, he knew that according to his own ability, it would be more difficult to defeat him than to reach the sky. But when he heard him talking about Master, he asked with some confusion: "Senior, do you mean Master?"
Have you ever come to Tianjian Sect to challenge this tower?"
The tower guard tidied up his clothes and said with a smile: "Master, this old man has not been to Tianjian Sect, but to this statue. I was also the first one he discovered. Didn't I tell you just now that this statue is Xuan Sword Sect?"
It was built by the founder of Tianzong and no one knows about it. If Master hadn't challenged it first, how could Zhou Chuji have happened?"
"The reason for this is very mysterious. When you see Master in the future, just ask him personally, haha."
Zhou Tian was confused after hearing this. Regardless of anything else, he pulled out the Blue Whale and Sealing Heaven Blade behind him again, and assumed a posture to continue fighting with the tower guardian.
The tower guard looked at him and waved his hand: "You have succeeded. The so-called seven or forty-nine floors are nothing more than the ninth floor. They just want you young people to give up trying to break into the tower out of fear..."
