Inside Wenchang Tower, on the ninth step of the fifth floor.

After Zhang Ziang and others used auxiliary props to rush to the fifth platform, Zhang Fei and others waiting on the steps also rushed through the mist.

For a moment, only Jiang Chen and Li Yang, who looked complicated, were left on the steps. After the others left, Li Yang looked at Jiang Chen in front of him with disbelief and said in surprise.

"You actually forgot to prepare auxiliary props?!"

Jiang Chen nodded slowly, then spread his hands helplessly and replied softly.

“I’ve been too busy lately, so I forgot to prepare!”

"Although I also have some talismans on my body that can temporarily enhance my spiritual consciousness, they are all written by me before, and the effect cannot be compared with those carefully prepared by you!"

"How could you forget such a big thing?!" After listening to Jiang Chen's explanation, Li Yang said with a bit of "hating that iron cannot become steel", "Even if you forget it yourself, there should be someone...

.”

Before he finished speaking, Li Yang suddenly stopped and did not continue.

What he wanted to say just now was, "Even if you forget, someone should remember it for you." But in the middle of saying this, he suddenly remembered that Jiang Chen was different from these people!

Among the twelve people they participated in the competition, although Jiang Chen's status was not lower than anyone else's, in terms of the power and resources behind them, Jiang Chen was indeed inferior to the other eleven people.

After all, the others were all from large sects and aristocratic families in the metaphysics world, but Jiang Chen's sect only had two masters and disciples.

Take Li Yang himself as an example. After he decided to participate in today's competition, he didn't need to worry about the rest. The items that might be used in the competition had already been prepared for him.

Not only Li Yang himself, he believed that this should be the case for the other ten people, with Jiang Chen being the only exception!

Li Yang knew very well how busy Jiang Chen's master, Xuanchengzi, was, so Jiang Chen had always been in a "free range" state, and he had to do everything himself.

And Jiang Chen has really been very busy recently, so it is normal for him to be negligent for a moment.

"Hold your fists, I forgot!" Li Yang apologized softly.

at this time.

Jiang Chen has adjusted his mentality. He has experienced a lot of storms and waves. Naturally, he will not let anything affect his state at this time. Since the thing has happened, he will just find a way to solve it.

After hearing Li Yang's apology, he immediately chuckled and shook his head.

"It's okay, I'll just try my best and try not to lag behind you too much in today's competition!"

Seeing that Li Yang still wanted to speak, he quickly changed the subject.

"Let's go, let's go up quickly!"

"Looking at their condition, they probably won't choose to continue climbing up. Let's go see what treasures they get from the treasure chest!"

After the words fell, Jiang Chen didn't give Li Yang a chance to speak again, and walked straight through the fog in front of him.

On the steps, Li Yang watched Jiang Chen's back slowly disappear into the mist, his expression slightly complicated.

It stands to reason that the original competition only involved Jiang Chen and Zhang Fei, and the rules of the competition were jointly decided by the two of them, so Jiang Chen did not have too many preparations.

However, the subsequent competition was suddenly changed to a competition between everyone, and the specific rules of the competition were determined by Master Shengyuan, so Jiang Chen seemed a little unprepared.

The most important thing is that Jiang Chen also spent the two days of preparation time originally given to them on helping them leave home!

"Oh, this time we leave home and owe you!"

As one of the parties involved, Li Yang knew very well that the strength of the twelve of them was almost the same. Once Jiang Chen fell too far behind in today's competition, it would not be so easy for him to catch up later!

Everyone knows the importance of this competition. If Jiang Chen's performance in this competition is too poor...

Li Yang sighed softly, and then rushed towards the mist ahead.

...

When Li Yang came to the fifth floor platform, he found that the other eleven people had indeed stayed in the room. Zhang Ziang and five others were standing in front of several treasure boxes, while the remaining Jiang Chen and others stood aside with curious expressions on their faces.

Look at them.

As Jiang Chen said before, Zhang Ziang and the others really do not intend to continue climbing the stairs.

The auxiliary props they used before were indeed very powerful and could temporarily enhance the strength of their spiritual consciousness. However, these props also had considerable side effects. In order not to damage their spiritual consciousness, they only dared to use them once in a short period of time.

These people have already thought about it. The effect of increasing the strength of their spiritual consciousness is about to end. Anyway, they can't compare with others. Instead of wasting energy to climb a step, it is better to open a treasure box here.

Woolen cloth!

Here, Li Yang ignored the inquiring eyes of Zhang Fei and others, came directly to Jiang Chen and stopped, and then looked towards Zhang Ziang and others together with the others.

at this time.

Zhang Ziang and the others were concentrating on casting spells to break the aura restrictions outside the treasure chest. Even if they were watching from a distance, Jiang Chen and others could still sense the aura fluctuations coming from them from time to time. Through the aura fluctuations, they

It can be determined that the aura restrictions outside these treasure chests are indeed stronger than the restrictions on the fifth floor.

At this time, Zhang Ziang and others had obviously used all their strength, and their gestures for casting spells and seals were much slower. However, the temptation brought by the treasure still made them grit their teeth and persevere.

After a moment like this.

"Bang~bang~bang!"

Several loud noises came from Zhang Ziang and others one after another - before their spiritual consciousness was about to run out, they finally successfully opened the treasure chest.

The next moment.

Jiang Chen and others who were watching not far away rushed over together. Under the nervous eyes of Zhang Ziang and others, they stopped not far in front of the five people.

"Don't be afraid. We have no other intention, we just want to see what good things are in the treasure box!"

After listening to the explanations of several people, Zhang Ziang and the other five did not relax because of this. While they were on alert, they reached out and took out the items from the treasure box.

Zhang Ziang held a yellowed ancient book in his hand and suddenly exclaimed.

"The fragmentary copy of Yang Gong's Feng Shui work "The Heavenly Jade Scripture"?!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present, including Jiang Chen, showed shock and envy!

They are all Feng Shui masters, and they know better than anyone else what the "Tian Jade Scripture" is. Even if Zhang Ziang has only a fragment of the copy, it is enough to shock them!

"Are the things in these treasure chests really all treasures?!"

When everyone was shocked, they heard another person next to them speak again.

"This is the [Heaven-Stealing Talisman]!"

Jiang Chen and others once again expressed their shock. The [Sky Stealing Talisman] is a rare high-level talisman, and its value is not lower than the fragmentary copy of the "Tian Jade Scripture".

"What I got is the [Heaven Sealing Nail] refined from the heart of a thousand-year-old peach tree."

"Another treasure!"

Jiang Chen and others could only feel envious, and then they quickly looked at the remaining two people, wanting to see what treasure they had obtained.

But.

What surprised them was that the two men just stood in front of the treasure chest with complicated expressions, and their hands were empty!

"you......"

Just as someone was about to ask, one of the two people spoke.

"The treasure chest I opened is empty, there is nothing in it!"

"What? The treasure chest is empty???"

Just when everyone was in shock, a majestic voice suddenly came from the void.

"Congratulations to someone who got the treasure. Ask me for the physical object corresponding to the treasure when it comes out!"

The owner of this voice is naturally Master Shengyuan. The twelve people participating in the competition all entered the Wenchang Tower with their spiritual consciousness, and the treasures in the treasure box are also projections of their spiritual consciousness. If you want to get the corresponding physical objects, you must naturally go to the Wenchang Tower.

The master!

"Junior thanks the master!"

Zhang Ziang and the other two people quickly saluted and thanked them. After they finished speaking, the two people who did not get the treasure quickly asked.

"Master, that...the treasure chest we opened is empty."

The next moment, Master Shengyuan's voice sounded again.

"Before you, there have been many generations of young talents here. It's normal for the treasure chest to be empty!"

It was just such a simple explanation, but the two people did not dare to say another word.

Zhang Ziang saw this and spoke.

"Master, I can no longer continue climbing and want to quit right now!"

Hearing this, several other people also followed suit.

"Master, we are the same!"

"Good!" Master Shengyuan's voice came out again in the void. At the same time, the figures of Zhang Ziang and the other five disappeared in an instant!
Chapter completed!
