Three hundred and twentieth chapters into the tower(1/2)
This news surprised Ma Rongcheng. He never expected that Zhou Tian would still be unable to escape in the end.
He thought for a long time on the bed. Due to his own reasons, he could not lead all the disciples of Tianjian Sect to resist the attack of Haotian Pavilion. If he really had to resist, there would only be two consequences. One would be that Tianjian Sect would fall;
The other is to lose both sides, and neither result is what he wants to see.
With a slight fluctuation in his eyebrows, he looked at Hong Qi and didn't know what to say.
"Sect Master, Zhou Tian has no ill intentions. How about I go to Xuantian Sect to find him now?"
Ma Rongcheng didn't want to pay attention to him just now, but now he wants to ask him again. This is not just a slap in the face, even the disciples outside the door will not surrender, let alone those elders, but for now,
Imminent: "You go out first. I have no idea what you want to do. My body still needs to be nursed back to health."
Ma Rongcheng could only ask Hong Qi to retreat through this ambiguous method.
Hong Qi pushed the door open and saw a group of disciples gathered in front of the door. He lowered his head and thought about what Ma Rongcheng said just now, and suddenly thought that this was not a hint to him.
Then he suddenly showed a slight smile on his face and ran straight outside the sect.
"What did the sect master say?"
Hong Qi simply said: "Look at him, the sect leader's intention is very clear, I will go to Xuantian Sect now."
Just as Hong Qi was about to leave, Rong Bai blocked him in front with a whoosh of a silver gun.
"The Xuantian Sect is in a dangerous place. You should not go there. I have been guarding the forest in Miyu Forest for many years and am very familiar with places like Xihuan. Besides, I have more dealings with Zhou Tian than you do."
Hong Qi and Qiao Mulan looked at each other, then nodded: "Okay, then you should be more careful."
Immediately, Rong Bai placed the silver spear in his hand across his chest, threw it into the air, jumped lightly, stepped on the silver spear with both feet, and disappeared into the sky.
At the same time, Zhou Tian returned to Xuantian Sect again. Because he had to break into the high tower, he could not return to Ye Mansion for the time being. He could only get rid of the matter and escape unscathed. Moreover, the disciples of Xuantian Sect were watching.
Here, we must not stop here.
After he walked into Xuantian Sect this time, these disciples were not as strange as before when they saw him, but they still looked disdainful.
The young man walked over slowly: "Haha, the sect master is going to spend the night in the sect?"
Zhou Tian glanced around, looked at the withered trees around him and smiled: "The trees in Xuantian Sect are so desolate, no one will take care of them? In the early years of Beimo, whenever it came to early October, I
Together with my father and several disciples or elders of the Xuantian Sect, we will collect the fallen leaves all over the ground..."
Speaking of this, Zhou Tian couldn't help but think of the early years when his parents were still alive.
The young man interrupted unintentionally and saw that the sky was getting dark, so he asked: "Sect Master, are you really going to challenge the high tower tomorrow? You have to know that once the challenge of this high tower fails, it will be laughed at by the disciples. If you are seriously injured,
, that’s a big deal, I still hope the sect master will think twice.”
Zhou Tian waved his hand and asked doubtfully: "I wanted to ask you what your name was last time, but I was interrupted by other things. Can you tell me now?"
The young man bowed his head and said: "The younger one is called Ouyang Canglin, which is not worth mentioning. In comparison, the Xuantian Sect's sect leader has always been dominated by the surname Zhou. We, the side branches, pale in comparison."
Zhou Tian looked at him disapprovingly: "Who told you that the sect leader of Xuantian Sect must be named Zhou? It's not a family inheritance. It's nothing more than a coincidence. My father once told me that Xuantian Sect has been a sect since ancient times.
There is no despicability for those who have ability to live here. It is just you people who have distorted the meaning."
After Ouyang Canglin heard this, although he agreed on the surface, he always thought in his heart that Zhou Tian could stand up and speak without pain, and of course Zhou Chuji could speak well if he was taught in person.
Zhou Tian and he walked in the courtyard of Xuantian Sect, looking at the disciples coming and going. Although these disciples all looked down on him, he still liked the atmosphere here very much. He recalled that when he was a child, he also followed in this kind of courtyard.
While my father was learning the exercises, his eyes couldn't help but get wet. The past could never come back, but his thoughts reappeared in his mind all the time.
Not walking far, they came to the statue again, but what surprised him was that not only could the statue be invisible outside the sect, but it could not be seen even if it came inside the sect. If it were not for the soles of the statue,
, its existence is not even noticeable.
Zhou Tian curiously turned his head and asked Ouyang Canglin: "Is this statue originally here? Or was it made by Zhou Chuji? Didn't you say last time that this was not the original place of Xuantian Sect? It was moved later.
Came here?"
Ouyang Canglin shook his head: "I don't know the specific situation. Then you have to ask the first-generation disciples. Xuantian Sect is very troublesome because of the up and down branches. Moreover, the surnames are different and the levels are different. I also heard that
Others said it; and Zhou Chuji also said this, saying that the current Xuantian Sect is not as good as before, and that he has never liked it since he moved here... and so on."
When Zhou Tian heard him talking about Zhou Chuji, he suddenly thought about it and suddenly remembered that Zhou Chuji had said some time ago that there was a way to deal with Haotian Pavilion's puppetry called pulling silk to change the pulse.
After asking, Zhou Tian was shocked. It turned out that all the disciples here were immune to the puppet technique. Zhou Tian was very impressed after knowing it. When he wanted to ask how to use it, Ouyang Canglin said that only Zhou Chuji knew how to use it.
Most of the disciples of Xuantian Sect were treated by Zhou Chuji himself.
When Zhou Tian heard this, he said to himself in a slightly disappointed tone: "Hmph, this Zhou Chuji, if I had known about it, I would have asked him in advance, and now I have to go back to Dongchu if I want to find him."
Ouyang Canglin frowned after hearing this: "What? You said Zhou Chuji went to Dongchu? What did he do in Dongchu?"
Zhou Tian thought they already knew Zhou Chuji's whereabouts, but Ouyang Canglin asked, making Zhou Tian confused: "Ah, it's nothing! Take me to rest, so that I can prepare for the tower tomorrow."
Later, Ouyang Canglin brought Zhou Tian to a house. Zhou Tian looked at it carefully for a moment and found that this house was very special. The towering eaves looked like two horns from a distance: "This house is quite special."
Ouyang Canglin smiled: "This room was originally prepared for Zhou Chuji, but he felt that the decoration in this room was too luxurious, which made him a little uncomfortable, so he moved to the current room; and you are the new sect leader.
, you deserve to live here.”
Zhou Tian didn't care about these external things, so he simply thanked him and went in.
The Xuantian Sect's courtyard is unlike other places. The Shiwanda Mountain is indeed a bit cold, especially as the evening approaches, the biting autumn wind makes Zhou Tianshi shiver.
Early the next morning, Zhou Tian was wrapped in quilt in the house. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw that the sun outside was extremely bright.
He stretched his waist and walked out of the room.
As soon as Zhou Tian stepped out of the room threshold, he heard the sound of loose footsteps outside the room. When he looked up, he saw that there were people standing outside the door, and he had not washed up. This fact made him extremely embarrassed.
It turned out to be the disciples of the sect, standing neatly in front of him.
"Who are you?" Zhou Tian looked at them in shock. At this time, Ouyang Canglin squeezed out from the crowd, bowed his hands and said, "Sect Master, today is the day you break into the tower. These disciples are here to observe."
Zhou Tian just woke up, and his head was still very muddy. When he heard what he said, he felt very energetic. He touched his stomach and it was still growling.
“Isn’t it necessary to fill my stomach even if I enter the tower…”
Not long after, after dinner, Zhou Tian was full of confidence. He walked to the foot of the statue, looked up at the statue that reached into the sky and couldn't see the top. After taking a deep breath, he took out the white phoenix from his arms.
Ouyang Canglin walked up to him and said: "You are now the sect master, and you don't need to prove anything. If you don't want to enter the tower, it's still too late, and I can explain it to the disciples."
Zhou Tian raised his left hand to tell him not to say anything more. A strong wind blew by, and Zhou Tian instantly jumped up with a white phoenix on his feet and came to the front of the opening behind the statue.
The disciples looked up at him and sighed.
"I don't know if I can successfully break into the tower this week."
"Hmph, I don't think so. It's hard enough for us to recognize his name as the sect master. But if he can really come out of the tower smoothly, it will be really amazing. Even if there are thousands of other things that are wrong by then, he will still be able to do it.
It’s hard not to accept it.”
"Yeah, then it depends on his luck."
After Ouyang Canglin listened to their words, he couldn't help but lower his head secretly. He had no idea about Zhou Tian's situation after entering the tower this time.
Zhou Tian came to the opening and looked inside carefully. He couldn't see anything in the darkness. The cold wind blew by, causing him to wrap up his coat tightly. When he looked down, he couldn't even see any shadow.
"Isn't this too high?"
After muttering a few words, Zhou Tian followed the opening and went in.
After entering, waves of bloody smell instantly reached Zhou Tian's nose. The awful smell almost made Zhou Tian vomit. Just when Zhou Tian wanted to find out, he suddenly felt uncontrollably.
Zhou Tian dived down, as if there was no gravity, and the speed was extremely fast. This feeling of free fall really scared Zhou Tian to the point of losing three souls. Although he had broken through the Thousand Spirits Tower before, his current situation was completely different from before.
, just like falling into a black hole of endless emptiness.
The speed of the dive gradually increased, and the howling wind forced Zhou Tian to close his eyes. After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Tian was still diving downward infinitely.
Bang!
There was a huge sound, and Zhou Tian fell to the ground with a thud.
All the bones in his body seemed to be cracked, especially his limbs, which were completely knocked unconscious.
He coughed a few times, turned over, and could clearly hear the creaking of bones: "Hiss! It hurts. This height is obviously like falling from a cliff. No wonder people say that this high tower may cause death, if it weren't for me
With enough Qihai blessing, ordinary people would have fallen to death long ago!"
He slowly got up from the ground. Although the pain was unbearable, most of it was skin injuries and he could bear it.
But it was still dark all around, and he always felt that there should be some mechanism that could light up the place. He kept groping, and suddenly he felt like he had touched a wall, so he slowly walked forward holding on to the wall, and not long after walking, he felt
Arriving at a device that looked like a torch, Zhou Tian, whose vision was completely dark, touched the Heaven Sealing Blade and Blue Whale behind him, and was startled: "Why didn't Luan Feng bring them here?"
"I probably forgot to put it on after wiping it last night, forget it."
Then he rubbed the two remaining knives against each other a few times, and after generating weak sparks, he turned around at lightning speed and placed them on the instrument. Suddenly the whole space was lit up. Look around at the lights.
It winds up like a giant dragon and lights up the entire tower in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Tian looked around and after rolling his eyes, he realized that he should be on the first floor of the tower.
Looking around, there were statues that looked like four strange beasts placed all around, and in the middle of these statues, there seemed to be a circular rotatable ground with densely engraved characters on it that Zhou Tian did not recognize.
Unlike Thousand Spirits Pagoda, there are no ferocious monsters here. Zhou Tian, who was relatively calm, slowly walked to the middle, squatted down and read the words on the ground, his brows furrowed like twists.
At this time, the statue on his left suddenly moved. I don't know if it was his hallucination or dazzling. He rubbed his eyes and saw that the statue was suddenly less than half a meter away from him.
This made Zhou Tian extremely frightened, and he immediately took half a step back. It would be better if he did not retreat. As he stepped back, the statue behind him also moved.
To be continued...
