Chapter 173: The Ninth Layer
The sky was pitch black, and the ground was crisscrossed with deep ravines, in which hot lava bubbled and reflected, reflecting the glow of chicrimson light, resisting the silent night.
Arakuten stood on the cracked earth, his clothes torn in several places, and long traces of blood could be faintly seen on his bare skin. It can be seen that not long ago, Aratian encountered a fierce battle here.
The fiery red magma burst into the air, the fluctuations of the aura were still violent, and the air was filled with a thick smell of blood, mixed with smoke and dust, and the nose was unusually choking. Not far away, several small mountain-like bodies lay there, and there were still a few flames on their bodies that had not been extinguished, and the bright red hot blood flowed down the miserable wounds on their bodies, all the way to the messy ravines on the ground.
It's hard to imagine that these huge figures lying on the ground were all genuine free realms, powerful monsters,
The fierceness of this battle is far from being comparable to that of the previous level, from the battle of the same level to two realms higher than himself, and he has to face four such powerhouses at once. Such a span is obviously a bit illogical, and it is also beyond the expectations of Huangtian's heart.
In fact, the doubts in Huang Tian's heart are not without reason, when Xi Yue was in the eighth layer before, although her strength was only in the extreme spirit realm, she was only dealing with a realm higher than herself, and the number was not as terrifying as that of Huang Tian.
The realm of two people breaking into the tower is quite different, and it stands to reason that it is quite logical to face a demonic beast in the free realm. Facing the four at once, he was as strong as a desolation, and he inevitably suffered a lot of losses in the battle, and he was accidentally hit in several encounters.
Huang Tian looked down at the injuries on his body, and frowned, "I heard that there are four people in the current generation of the Heavenly Fall Academy who have passed the eighth layer, one of them is the ninth layer, and one is the tenth layer. Such strength is really extraordinary. ”
And at this moment, a dazzling light in the sky lit up, and instantly became larger, and the barren sky was instantly swallowed by a piece of white light.
At the same time, the staggered ravines on the ground gradually disappeared, and the flowing magma began to turn into red light scattered in the air, and the demonic beast that had lost its traces of life lying on the ground was shrouded in white light and turned into starlight and crumpled into the sky.
In an instant, the world was turned upside down, no earth shook, no stars moved, and all the surrounding scenery changed. Not only that, where the white light spread, the darkness that had existed forever collapsed in an instant as if it had seen a nemesis, as if it had been evaporated, and there was nothing left in the blink of an eye.
When Huangtian opened his eyes again, he was surprised to find himself in the familiar Futu Pagoda again, the blue-black walls were carved with simple and atmospheric patterns, revealing the aura of Taoism.
"Congratulations, you've successfully passed the test of the eighth layer! You have a quarter of an hour to recuperate, and then you have to choose between the light gates in front of you. The white light gate leads to the next level, and the other golden one is the way to exit. ”
As he spoke, the vicissitudes of life stopped abruptly and fell silent. Instead, there were two gates of light, which lit up in front of the barren sky. It's also strange to say, unlike before, it is obviously two single-color light gates, giving the barren sky a kaleidoscope-like feeling, dazzling.
Aratian thought it was very interesting, but time was pressing, and he didn't have the extra heart to study this strange light gate again. So he simply did it on the spot, closed his eyes and began to breathe.
The spiritual power in the tower surged, bringing a gentle breeze, and at this time, a faint white light flashed at the top of the tower, which was incomparably soft, and floated down quietly from mid-air, enveloping the figure of the barren sky.
Countless white rains of light danced around Desert Sky, submerging into his body like small tadpoles. The desolate sky in his closed eyes seemed to feel something, his brows furrowed slightly, but he felt that his injured body was recovering at an accelerated pace, and his spiritual power had also become full, it seemed that there was no harm, and he expected that he was in the Heavenly Fall Academy, if he was plotted, he would probably react to the Apocalypse.
So, I was relieved to devote myself to pranayama.
There are not many injuries on Huang Tian's body, most of them are skin injuries, with his current physical attainments, it is a trivial matter to recover, mainly because of the spiritual power lost in the battle. However, with the assistance of the Futu Tower, the abundant spiritual energy instantly wandered around his body, following his meridians and veins, running Zhou Tian according to the operation mode of the Desolate Emperor Jue, and entering the spiritual sea.
In less than ten minutes, Huangtian's mental state returned to its peak again, and the spiritual power on his body was incomparably abundant.
His eyes rolled, he stood up, looked around the two light gates, rubbed his hands together, and suddenly stepped into the light gate leading to the eighth floor.
Outside, when the light on the ninth floor of the Futu Pagoda was lit up. The noise of the past was suddenly news, and it was replaced by a dead silence.
On the pavilion, Shengjie, who was in a dragon-patterned gold robe, slapped the chair next to him hard, and then slowly stood up from the chair, and suddenly an inexplicable aura emanated from under Shengjie's body, which was so depressing that people couldn't breathe.
Some of the followers of the Shengjie in the back changed their faces drastically, and they were so shocked by this breath that they all took a few steps back. Even Ziluan looked frightened, her eyes were wide open, and she only felt that the person in front of her was a little strange at this time, as if they were far away.
Ziluan plucked up his courage, straightened his chest and walked towards Shengjie, gently holding the former's arm, and said softly: "What's wrong with Shengjie, what happened, do you feel unwell? If you are uncomfortable, I will help you go back first." I'm really worried about you like this. ”
Those followers looked at the two nervously, not daring to make any noise, and even made a sound when they came to the atmosphere, for fear that they would catch fire.
Sheng Jie turned his head and looked at the girl behind him, his indifferent and cruel eyes revealed a cold killing intent, which startled Ziluan, and her heart kept beating in her chest. But Ziluan still didn't push back, plucked up his courage, pursed his lips, raised his head, opened his eyes wide, did not avoid Shengjie's gaze, and looked at Shengjie firmly.
The two looked at each other like this for a long time, and everyone didn't dare to come forward to disturb, so they could only wait quietly in place. I saw that Shengjie's expression eased, and he put his hand on the top of Ziluan's head dotingly, rubbed it affectionately, and the depressed breath was suddenly swept away.
"Thank you, silly girl. He smiled like a sunny smile, very warm.
"Thank you for what I'm doing!" Seeing that Shengjie had returned to normal, Ziluan's face eased and he breathed a sigh of relief, "What happened to you just now, your expression is so scary, I almost don't know you anymore." ”
"I'm sorry, I was so angry. I'm so sorry I scared you, I think you promise you won't do this in front of you in the future. Shengjie looked at the little girl beside him affectionately, his eyes full of affection.
"You're so angry, who are you angry about?, is it the one who broke into the tower?" Zi Luan looked at Sheng Jie suspiciously, a little incredulous.
"Of course not, I don't know him, why are I angry with him!" Sheng Jie patted Ziluan's head, "I'm angry with myself, I didn't work hard enough, I can only pass the eighth level, it's still far away!"
"So that's the case! You're so powerful, and you're still pursuing progress, it's worthy of you!" Zi Luan stuck out his tongue at Shengjie, very playful, "But in my heart, you are the strongest, even Yi Chen and Split Sky are not as good as you." ”
"Thank you, you look innocent, I like it so much. ”
"What I said is true"
......
In the ninth layer of space, the barren sky walked aimlessly on the endless blue, and without taking a step forward, the connection under his feet was overflowing, shattering into blue waves.
It turned out that the barren sky was on the water at this time, reflecting a blue sky. However, the miraculous thing is that this water surface can easily carry the barren sky on it, and there is no need for the barren sky to release spiritual power to bless a few bodies.
The sea and sky, the blue sea and blue sky, can be described as a rare beauty in the world. However, Arathia was not in the mood to appreciate these, but carefully thought about what to do next.
"I came to the real place as soon as I came up, but when I got to the ninth floor, it was calm and abnormal, and I couldn't see anything strange. "Is there a potential danger?"
"It's not a way to keep consuming like this, sooner or later people's patience will be exhausted. ”
"Is it?"
The Desert Alarm Clock suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and it suddenly opened, as if it had figured out something.
"Isn't there no test at all, or is this a test of my patience?"
The more he walked, the more he felt that his idea might have been right, and then his face turned black and full of bitterness, as if he had eaten a dead child.
"It's going to be when. ”
Complaining to complaining, Aratian did not stop, and continued to walk towards the unknown ahead. There is no way to tell the way here, but he is fearless, and he believes that as long as there is a road, there is a way ahead.
"What a clever boy. "After the barren sky left, the voice of the Futu Tower appeared in place.
After a while, an ethereal figure also appeared in place, and the white mist covered his face, hiding his figure. If you take a closer look, you will be shocked to find that the aura there does not fluctuate, as if nothing exists.
"Do you feel that vague aura on him, I think he released it behind this child's back, presumably to warn us. "There was a voice in the white mist, both real and illusory, and it was impossible to distinguish between men and women.
"Then don't interfere with him, just let him test the normal difficulty, you have to do this, you want to test his depth. Now that he has returned, how far can he go, let him get it back safely? The sound of the vicissitudes of the Futu Pagoda sounded.
"It seems that this can only be the case, but the difficulty of the last layer, I think there will be a good show. ”
