Chapter 8: The Labyrinth

Judging from the various performances after entering the enchantment before, Chu Jianmo and Mu Xing both thought that Xue Qianci should be a more reliable guy, but when several people were teleported into the tower, the concept of the two of them was immediately shaken, how could this unreliable guy set the teleportation point in the air at a height of nearly two hundred meters!

All of a sudden, except for Situ Yuxin, who reacted very quickly and cast the spirit array to let the three of them land safely, the other two looked at the casual Xue Qian who was standing in front of them with a frightened expression.

"Ha, you're in, let's go, let's start... Ah, Yuxin, what are you doing here?" Xue Tianci looked at Situ Yuxin, who walked to him and suddenly knocked him on the head, with a puzzled expression, she didn't seem to have done anything to provoke her?

"You're scared of me, although you big men are not afraid, but next time please consider that there is a girl here, okay?"

"Huh, are you still afraid of this..."From Yu Xin's expression that has not changed for thousands of years, Xue Yan really didn't see any fear on his face, he muttered helplessly, but Yu Xin's attention had already moved to the surrounding environment, and he didn't complain about him anymore.

It was surrounded by ordinary wooden building panels, and there was no other decoration, but the air in such a closed environment was very fresh, not much different from the outside world when they were walking in the forest, and around the four of them, six spiraling stairs led from different directions to the upper space, and the whole empty space was nothing but these staircases.

"There's nothing unusual at the bottom of this place except for these stairs, and I haven't been to the top yet, but there's no breath of any other creature. Xue told everyone about his discovery in advance, although the time was short, his perception was extraordinary, so Yu Xin didn't look around anymore, but instead observed the surrounding stairs.

"Which one do you want to take?" carefully observed the six stairs, except that the handrails of each staircase were differently decorated, Yu Xin couldn't see the difference between them, so she asked Xue Tianci.

"I don't know, just take one, try your luck, or choose the square one. Pointing to the staircase on their left, Xue Qian chose a staircase, and he had already stepped up the stairs first, while Situ Yuxin and Chu Jianmo naturally followed, and soon disappeared at the corner of the spiral of the stairs.

"Alas, all of them are acute. Mu Xing was speechless at the hurry of these three people, obviously there are a lot of things worth studying in the lower layer alone, aren't you all curious about the spirit arrays that can be felt outside on this wooden wall?

But thinking about it, it was impossible for Mu Xing to stay here alone, regardless of whether there was anything more strange above, the trouble that even Xue Qian couldn't easily solve was enough to keep up with them.

However, when he was about to step upward, he found that three people had actually come down the stairs again, and just as he looked at the three of them curiously, he found that the three of them were also looking at him in amazement.

"When did you come up?"

"Ahh ”

But when Mu Xing looked around, he found that there were landscape paintings of the forest outside on the walls around him that were not decorated with any carved patterns, and the vivid picture matched with the flowing aura in this tower, which made Mu Xing have the illusion of being transferred to the outside world.

"You haven't moved, are there any stairs going down?" Chu Jianmo walked up the stairs to the floor where Mu Xing was, he looked around, if it wasn't for Mu Xing, he wouldn't have believed that this would be the place they had just stayed, after all, this feeling was too different.

"But you were going down just now..."However, Mu Xing's words surprised the three of them even more, in his vision, the three people who were originally rising in their own feelings were actually walking down?

"Ahh

"You guys stay on the platform. After pondering for a moment, Situ Yuxin once again stepped on the ascending staircase seen from this platform, this time the choice was still a square icon.

The three of them watched Yu Xin who was moving forward cautiously, and as she gradually disappeared from their gaze and perception, they originally thought that Yu Xin would walk down this staircase again as she had just now, but after waiting for a while, they found that the person was gone?

The three of them were in a hurry, thinking that this staircase was just a trap for spatial connection, but now it doesn't look like ah, an invisible enemy, an unknown disease, a strange tower... What happened after this came in was terrible for Mu Xing...

"Jian Mo, you can't go up now. Xue Qian quickly grabbed Chu Jianmo, who wanted to go up, he knew that Jian Mo wanted to find Yu Xin, but now that he was breaking in, even the four of them would be scattered together.

"But just standing here is not a way, and we don't know the situation here, do you have a better way than to try?" The three people present, except for Yu Xin, belonged to Mu Xing's formation cultivation at the highest, but even he couldn't see it clearly, and there was no way for him to talk to him.

"Actually, Jian Mo's idea is not a bad idea, but I think one is enough. Mu Xing agreed with Jian Mo's idea, but obviously he was different from Jian Mo's direct recklessness, Mu Xing untied a very thin rope from his wrist and pulled out one of its ends.

"This rope is made of the tendons of the Hague giant beast, it is not affected by the aura, and it is extremely elastic, you can basically use it to draw the layout here, which of you can bring it?"

Drawing the layout meant running through all the places as fast as possible, and the dangers that might lie within the tower were still unknown, which meant that he had to take more risks than the rest of the explorers.

"You guy, although the actual combat is not very good, there are a lot of strange things. Xue Qian smiled disapprerovingly at the possible danger, stretched out his hand to take the rope, and tied one end of it to his wrist, "The cultivation below here is the highest, so leave it to the lower." ”

"Note that the limit length of this rope is six thousand meters, and although I don't think it's possible to have such a wide space here, if there are special circumstances, it is better to go back the way you came. Fixing the other end of his hand to the ground in the spirit array he cast, Mu Xing continued to remind Xue Tian.

"Six thousand meters... Got it, then, two, each be careful. Gesturing to the two of them, Xue took a big stride up the square staircase of the fence, where Yu Xin had disappeared and where he was about to take his first step.

Seeing Xue Qian disappear at the corner of this staircase, Chu Jianmo turned his head and was about to ask Mu Xing's next plan, but suddenly found that behind him, there was no one left, this time he didn't move, why did the environment change again?

"Mu Xing?" called tentatively, but did not get any response, Jian Mo looked around vigilantly, and found that the layout of this place had changed, the walls that were originally just feng shui real scene paintings had disappeared, and the walls at this time were more like stone walls, and in the corners of this room, there were still a few jars scattered around.

Gently opened the jar in the corner over there, there was nothing in it, and nothing was placed, Chu Jianmo, who had found nothing, returned to the center of the room and looked around, except for the six stairs, there was no similarity between the two rooms he walked through, that is, the key point, was the stairs.

"From the time I first saw Mu Xing to the time I disappeared, three minutes, it seems that this place will move on its own. Chu Jianmo walked towards another staircase with a circular relief on the fence, although he knew that it was dangerous to walk around in this kind of place, but now there was no way to stay where he was.

The staircase that folded back was up and down for a total of ten meters, and Chu Jianmo quickly came to the next scene, this time in addition to the six stairs that would never change, there were actually some living creatures that appeared in his eyes?

"This, what's it..."Stepping into this scene, Jian Mo found that the ground under his feet was very soft, not as hard as before, but more like sand, and in front of him, these small creatures with narrow bodies, scaly armor on their backs, but only a dozen centimeters in length, were shuttling back and forth in the land under his feet without hindrance, and seemed to swim quite happily.

Cautiously grabbed one with his hand, but this kind of little guy didn't seem to be afraid of Chu Jianmo, and those little spiritual eyes were using the dissatisfaction that Jian Mo could read to let him put it down.

"Do you know where this is?" Since he could see spirituality in his eyes, Chu Jianmo tried to communicate with it, after all, according to his common sense, such a spiritual creature should have developed wisdom in such an aura-rich environment a long time ago.

But what made Jian Mo feel a little funny was that the other party didn't seem to intend to pay attention to Jian Mo, or didn't understand what he said at all, and directly began to twist his waist, trying to break free of Jian Mo's palm.

"Forget it, I'd better find it myself. Putting down the little guy in his hand, Chu Jianmo straightened up and looked around at the six stairs around him, "This time, which one should I choose... Okay, that's it. ”

Just as Chu Jianmo, who chose to step on the triangular relief staircase, walked up, a gloomy and cold dark wind in the upper floor made his nerves tighten, and the spiritual power in his body quietly operated, and he secretly looked up through the lower floor of the staircase, what surprised him was that this time, it was no longer a house, and the surroundings turned into the top of the towering peak?

Surprised, Chu Jianmo walked into this floor, the surrounding walls had disappeared, and had become an endless sea of clouds, at this moment, he was like a supreme person standing on the top of a high mountain and looking at the world, he really felt the cold wind and indescribable darkness, and the six stairs floating in the air were quite abrupt, like a staircase leading to the fairy palace, just swirling in the air outside the top of the mountain, as if testing whether Chu Jianmo had the courage to climb up.

Turning sideways and looking down from the cliff, a cold air from the bottom up made Jian Mo shudder, since he stepped into the door of cultivation, few natural scenes could affect his feelings, but in the altitude that might be close to 10,000 meters, this height that he could not reach on weekdays, Chu Jianmo felt his heart frightened for the first time.

"No, it's an illusion, and I have to go up. Taking a deep breath, letting the rich aura infiltrate his body through his nose, forcibly stabilizing his heart that had begun to be timid, Jian Mo forced himself not to look at the scenery below the cliff, he was trying to direct his attention to the surrounding stairs.

After taking a few deep breaths in a row, Chu Jianmo's eyes froze, and he jumped towards the stairs of the five-pointed star carved railing, according to his calculations, the distance between them was no more than twenty meters, and the distance that could be easily crossed on weekdays seemed to suddenly stretch unlimitedly the moment his feet left the cliff!

"Tianli Jian Gang!" forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, Chu Jian Mo's hands quickly sealed, and several translucent sword gangs appeared under his feet, but the aura here was very strong in feeling, but there were great restrictions in use, the sword gang condensed by Jian Mo this time was extremely fragile, and it was directly broken under the help of his step, and the others were not even formed, and they dissipated directly in the air at a height of 10,000 meters.

But at least he still had a point of strength, and Chu Jianmo's ability to get close to his body jumped towards the bottom of the stairs that seemed out of reach.

"Smack!"

His right hand slammed down on the bottom of the staircase, gripped the wooden floor hard, and hung with one hand to restrain his downward trend.

"I didn't know I was afraid of this. Chu Jianmo himself didn't know what was going on in this scene, why the feeling of fear was so strong, and it was just two people in his usual state.

Involuntarily smiling bitterly, he raised his head and looked at the place where he was holding with one hand, the place where he was juxtaposed with the stars in the sky, pulling up the weight of his body with one arm, this action that was easy in ordinary training was like a thousand pounds of gravity dragging him down, so that his right arm couldn't lift himself up at all.

No, this feeling is just something pulling him!

Chu Jianmo, who suddenly felt that something was wrong, looked down and was horrified to find that the sea of clouds had already dispersed, and there was no ground below at all, but a black ocean tumbling with turbulent waves, and there was no other land around here except for that peak!

There seemed to be this incomparable suction in the black wave that was constantly spreading upward, and it was it that constantly brought Chu Jianmo into the world below.

With one hand in his left hand, Chu Jianmo controlled the fragile sword gang in the air and shot towards the black water that was constantly climbing upwards like a big hand, the moment the entire sword gang touched the sea water, the whole was melted in, and at such a speed, there was not even a single ripple, Jian Mo could even feel the pain of his sword being dissolved by the black water, this terrifying characteristic made a term that he didn't even realize came to his mind.

"I'm not kidding, Kuroshio, I haven't reached the North Abyss Sea yet!"

The Black Tide, a catastrophic event that will erupt once every ten years in the North Abyss Sea, during that special period, the sea water will become a terrible wave that dissolves all spiritual power, even if a strong person who has become an immortal accidentally falls in, it will be corroded by the sea water in an instant, and now everything around, only the disaster of the level of the Black Tide can meet the cognition of the Sword Desert, could it be that this high mountain that reaches into the sky is the Heavenly Mountain of the Spirit Domain...

Just as Chu Jianmo was helpless with one hand, there was a sudden sound of perceptible footsteps in the stairs above him, and when he looked up, it turned out to be Situ Yuxin, who had disappeared early in the morning?

"Yuxin?" Chu Jianmo looked at the beautiful woman who suddenly appeared in front of him in disbelief, and his heart couldn't help but move, and he hurriedly shouted to her.

"Come, give me your hand. Stretching out his right hand to Chu Jianmo, Situ Yuxin's expression seemed to be helpless that Jian Mo was always in danger.

"Eun. Seeing Yu Xin appear at this time, Chu Jianmo's nervous mood seemed to have calmed down for the most part, he was finally able to climb up before the black tide engulfed him, he hurriedly put his left hand on Yu Xin without thinking about it, but suddenly he seemed to feel that something was wrong...

The clothes that Situ Yuxin wore when she came in were the homemade green shirts she only wore when she went out to travel, but now, Yuxin in front of her was wearing the green scales and purple clothes that she only wore when she was in the Situ Family Pavilion... She's not Yuxin?!

However, the "Yu Xin" in front of him just smiled at him, but his hand was still strong, trying to pull him up, after hesitating in his heart for a few seconds, Jian Mo still handed over his right hand to the other party, and the other party actually pulled him up, without showing any abnormal behavior, or completely in line with his memory of Situ Yuxin's every move.

"What are you thinking?" Maybe only when facing her, Yu Xin would show the lively and innocent appearance of a girl, that serious and curious look, no matter how many times Jian Mo saw it, he felt that this was a better scene in the world than Ling Yin's face.

"No... I wasn't thinking about anything..."Even though he found out that the other party was strange, when Jian Mo faced Yu Xin, he always felt that he didn't have the courage to accuse the other party.

But what Jian Mo didn't expect was that "Yu Xin" approached him with a smile as if he knew everything about his psychology, and whispered softly on his cheek, "You are thinking, I will just let go of your hand and let you fall into the black tide, and there will be nothing left of the corrosion." ”

The subtle careful thought in his heart was said by the person in front of him in the most straightforward way without any embellishment, the embarrassment and surprise in Chu Jianmo's heart were not insignificant, but they didn't give him a chance to react, Situ Yuxin in front of him took advantage of his frightened moment, suddenly pushed, and pushed the unsuspecting him directly away from the bottom of the stairs where he had just stood.
