Chapter 644 Stone Tower
"Senior Li!" Ye Xi, who was originally listless, immediately shone with his eyes when he saw Li Mu, and was surprised and happy.
When Li Muran left the Dark Night Clan, he also brought Ye Xi out, and gave him some dragon human bloodlines, taught him some martial arts, and gave him some treasures so that he could pretend to be a dragon human monk and travel and practice on this ancient land.
Unexpectedly, they would meet again here three hundred years later!
"Why are you here?" Li Muran asked even more confusion.
Ye Xi replied: "I am the servant of Lord Bone Demon, and I will serve Lord Bone Demon here."
When Ye Xi spoke, he saluted the skeleton very respectfully. It was obvious that the "Bone Demon Lord" in Ye Xi's mouth was him.
"There is such an existence in the ancient land!" Li Muran was secretly shocked. Judging from the aura of this bone demon, it turned out to be a great cultivator in the late stage of the true body!
The Bone Demon let out a heavy laugh: "Haha, I'm afraid that the treasures left by the ancestors of the Dark Night Clan are all for the treasures! You wait for a few demon kings and orc monks, but you are not qualified to get involved in these treasures, so please leave immediately!"
When the Thunder Demon King and others heard this, they were slightly stunned at first, and then they agreed: "Yes, I'll leave now!"
"Fellow Daoist Li, say goodbye!" The Thunder Demon King and others immediately left hurriedly.
Li Muran frowned slightly. He found that the Thunder Demon King and others were leaving very straightforwardly, and seemed quite happy.
"Are these demon kings and others coming for the treasure? Now they are leaving empty-handed, and they are still very happy?" Li Muran was puzzled in his heart.
The Bone Demon looked at the Dark Night tribe members behind Li Muran with a pair of empty "eye holes" glowing black.
"Haha, very good, very good! Each of them has good qualifications. Although they are not innate light, they are almost the same!" The Bone Demon said with great satisfaction.
"It's really rare that there were three descendants of the Dark Night Clan with high qualifications at the same time!" said the Bone Demon: "Well, you are indeed qualified to obtain the treasures left by the ancestors of the Dark Night Clan. Please follow me!"
"Wait!" Li Muran said: "What is your identity? Why did he appear in the Dark Night Maze?"
...
Outside the entrance of the Dark Night Maze, the Thunder Demon King and others flew out in a flash.
"That's great!" said the Thunder Demon King excitedly: "I didn't expect that fellow Daoist Li came uninvited, and the bone demon had no doubts!"
The Dragon Man Ancestor was also happy and said, "I was really nervous when I met the Bone Demon this time. Although we tried our best to collect most of the treasures requested by the Bone Demon, the members of the Dark Night tribe were taken away and their whereabouts were unknown from now on. If he knew about this, he would be angry and we might end up with the same fate as Luo Zhenren! But now fellow Daoist Li suddenly appeared and brought several members of the Daoist Li, the matter was resolved immediately. At least we would have the whereabouts of fellow Daoist Li and the Daoist Night tribe!"
The Jiao Wang smiled and said, "Not only that! We had been trying hard to deal with the bone demon before, but our strength was not good! This fellow Daoist Li was super powerful. This time he met the bone demon in a narrow way, and there might be a life-and-death battle! If the two of them fought to die together, that would be the best! If the bone demon wins, his vitality will most likely be greatly damaged and his strength will be greatly reduced. By then, I will be able to completely solve the Bone Demon, a major concern!"
"Since the sudden appearance of this bone demon more than 200 years ago, he shocked us with his superb strength and cultivation. We have become a chess piece under his mercy and have no ability to compete with him. This time, he might be able to eliminate him by leveraging fellow Daoist Li!"
The Werewolf Ancestor said: "If fellow Daoist Li kills the bone demon, what should we do? Will he become the next bone demon, subdue us, and dominate the entire ancient land?"
The Dragon King grinned and said, "This possibility is extremely small. If it happens, we will take advantage of the situation and kill him too! Even if he can destroy the bone demon, he will definitely be seriously injured or greatly damaged in magic power. We will stay here and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman!"
...
Faced with Li Muran's questioning, the Bone Demon laughed and said, "My identity is not important. What is important is that I also want to get a share! Is it not qualified to be involved in the treasures of the Dark Night Clan as a late-stage cultivator?"
Li Muran nodded, and the other party took the initiative to say that he wanted to get the treasure, which made him feel a little relieved.
"Since you have come here and have such cultivation, you are of course qualified to divide the treasures. I wonder how many treasures you plan to take away?" Li Muran asked.
The bone demon said: "I am very fair! No matter how many treasures there are in the Dark Night Clan, they are divided into three parts. The fellow Taoist and I each take one part, and the remaining one is left for these Dark Night Clan juniors. How about it?"
Li Muran was stunned. The plan proposed by the other party was very reasonable, which was somewhat beyond his expectations.
With the other party's cultivation level, it is normal to ask for half or even two-thirds of the treasures to be separated; even if he says he wants to take away all the treasures, Li Muran will not be surprised.
"Okay! Just one word is determined!" Li Muran agreed.
The Bone Demon said: "Please follow me. To obtain the Dark Night Clan treasure, these young people from the Dark Night Clan need to take action."
Li Muran nodded slightly and signaled that Clan Chief Ye and others to follow him.
The leader of the Ye tribe suddenly bowed to Ye Xi and said, "Senior is also a member of the clan. If he is named Ye Xi, is he the younger Tai uncle? The younger Taizu Ye Luo should be the older brother."
"So you are a descendant of Brother Luo!" Ye Xi nodded and said, "There is indeed some blood relationship between you and me. This Bone Demon Lord has no malice. Just cooperate well and act."
"Yes, I will follow the instructions of Grandpa Tai!" said the leader of the Ye respectfully.
With Ye Xi, the grand uncle, as the guarantee, and with a master like Li Muran in charge, the leader of the Ye tribe and others were relieved.
Following the Bone Demon and Ye Xi, everyone came to a quaint stone tower deep in the dark night maze.
This stone tower is not too high or too big. It has nine floors in total. A dozen stone stairs hover up the stone tower until the ninth floor at the top.
There is a stone door on each stone tower. A faint black light flashed on the stone door. It seemed extremely thin, but even the divine thoughts could not be penetrated. It was obviously a very clever restriction.
After seeing the stone tower, Li Muran immediately guessed something. He counted the steps of the stone tower carefully - Sure enough, there were 81 steps of stone in total.
There are eighty-one stone stairs, and each nine steps rises one stone tower, with a total of nine stone towers and nine stone gates.
"If you guessed correctly, this stone tower should be used to assess the divine light qualifications of monks!" Li Muran said with a smile.
"That's true!" said the Bone Demon: "The treasure is hidden behind every stone door. The higher the treasure goes up, the higher the quality. Ye Xi has already visited the fifth floor and below. The treasure he found is very ordinary and not worth mentioning at all. The real good thing should be above the sixth floor."
"However, only the monks of the Dark Night Clan with extremely high qualifications can step onto a higher ladder. I was rejected by this restriction and could not open the stone gate smoothly. If it is forcibly cracked, it will destroy all treasures; therefore, only by allowing these monks of the Dark Night Clan with better qualifications to take advantage of the treasures."
"Even the Tai Uncle Tai in the Dharma Status can only step onto the fifth floor!" The leader of the Ye clan was secretly shocked. He asked, "Dare you dare to ask Tai Uncle Tai, you don't know what qualifications you can step onto the top floor of the stone tower?"
Ye Xi replied: "If it is the innate light with dark attributes, you should be able to step onto the seventh floor; and if you want to step onto the top floor, you must be qualified to choose the light of the sky!"
"The Light of Chosen?" Chief Ye murmured: "It is rumored that the divine light of the ancestral orifice has been opened as soon as he was born, and he can start practicing since his mother's womb? I am afraid that such a person will never meet in a thousand years!"
Li Muran smiled slightly. The Dark Night Clan was not very crowded, so the chance of appearing the Selected Light or Innate Light was naturally very small. However, in the Immortal Cultivation World of the Middle Earth Power, although the Selected Light was very rare, there was a huge number of monks as the basis. Every hundred years, one or two Selected Light monks appeared, attracting major sects to compete to accept disciples.
"You wait for everyone to go up and try it!" The bone demon pointed at the three Dark Night Clan youth behind Li Muran and said.
"Yes!" the three of them agreed respectfully.
The stone staircase was narrow and could not accommodate too many people, and one of them started climbing the tower first.
The young man wanted to fly directly to the top of the stone tower, but when he approached the stone tower, he suddenly failed and fell down!
Li Muran waved his sleeves, and a breeze rolled out. He held the young man in time and finally landed safely.
"Idiot!" The Bone Demon snorted coldly: "If you can fly up directly, do you have to wait for the action?"
Li Muran said: "This stone tower tests the divine light qualifications you are waiting for. It contains extremely strong seals and air bans. It is impossible to take advantage of the tricks, so you can only walk up the stone stairs step by step."
"Yes!" The young man's face was flushed, so he had to step onto the stone stairs honestly.
At first, the young man stepped very fast and climbed to the sixth floor in one breath. He pushed open the sixth floor stone door without any effort and carried out a few treasure chests about a foot square from it.
The treasure chest contains some dark-attribute minerals, many of which are treasure-refining materials, which are valuable to the Dark Night Clan, but in the view of Li Muran, who is already a mid-stage cultivator in the real body, these minerals are of inferior quality and useless to him.
"I won't divide these treasures!" The bone demon glanced at the treasure chest and said.
Li Muran nodded and echoed: "Well, let's all belong to the Dark Night Clan."
The Ye Clan was overjoyed and thanked him all the time, and took these treasure chests.
The young man continued to climb the stone tower, and he struggled a lot for the next journey, and every step was extremely difficult. In the end, he still did not step on the seventh floor, only two steps away from the stone stairs.
After he gave up, another young man from the Dark Night tribe climbed the stone tower. This man was not anxious or slow, nor wasted his energy by going to the sixth floor to get treasures, so he stepped onto the seventh floor smoothly.
