Chapter Twenty-Three: The Two Heroes
The long journey is very boring for being alone, but if you have a companion with you on the journey, it can be a good way to dispel the boredom, and it is obvious that the encounter between Huangtian and Xiyue is each other's luck.
The two of them traveled westward, towards the place where the sun sets every day, where the night begins.
The road became wider and neater unconsciously, and it turned out that not far away was a city called Powu.
"I said, what's your body called? Why is it so powerful, I can't catch up with my might. Wild Sky asked the girl beside him tentatively.
"Hmph, didn't you beat me last time?" and why can't you catch up!"
"Uh......" Araita thought to himself, "this Xiyue is really difficult, every time she says a word, it makes people regret talking to her." ”
"That...... Didn't I use some cleverness to win last time? It's not a real skill, if I compare the speed of the body method alone, my cultivation method will definitely not be able to compare to yours. For the sake of the words, Huangtian hurriedly showed weakness.
"You are self-aware!" Xiyue glanced at the barren sky, and saw that he was sincere and unpretentious, so she said unhurriedly, "Then Miss Ben will tell you reluctantly! Miss Ben's body method is called Meteor Moon, but it is known as the fourth fastest in the world! Miss Ben has only practiced to the second level, which will make you barely keep up." Otherwise, no matter how big you can endure, you can only look at the dust!"
"Huh, is there anything faster than this?" Wasteland completely ignored Xiyue's display, and was only interested in the faster ones.
"Actually, except for the first body, the other second, third, and fourth are all about the same!" Seeing that Huangtian was obviously interested in faster, Xiyue was a little unhappy.
"What is the first one?" asked with a roll of his big eyes.
Xiyue rolled her eyes at Huangtian's question: "You are really a 'problem' teenager. ”
The barren sky laughed heartlessly, and didn't forget to gently slap the girl next to him with his hand.
"I really can't help you, the first body method is naturally the legendary Supreme Star Domain-the 'Great Dream Flowing Shadow' in the Heavenly Domain, known as the first extreme speed in the Heavenly Domain! Legend has it that this body method is so fast that it can transform into tens of millions of phantoms at the same time, and can even break through the shackles of space!"
"So powerful!" "Araita has a long mouth, obviously looking like he wants to do something.
"I say, don't dream of getting your hands on that thing!" Xiyue scoffed, "That body technique has long been lost when it was still in the ancient world!
Huang Tian thought about it for a while and felt that what Xiyue said was indeed reasonable, so he said solemnly: "Forget it, I won't learn the first body method, so I will be wronged to learn what you are, what is it called...... Meteors go to the moon!"
"No...... Want...... Dead face...... Whoever said they were going to teach you, it was the same as the truth. Xiyue really had no way to take the cheekiness of the barren sky, so she could only leave him behind and swagger away.
Seeing this, Huangtian hurriedly chased after him.
......
Obviously, Yi Chen's journey was not as lucky as Huangtian.
Zhongzhou - the land of the fall of the sky.
"Where are the idlers?" a man in a blue robe suddenly stopped Yi Chen's progress.
Yi Chen slowly raised his head and asked expressionlessly, "This is the Heavenly Fall Academy?"
Only then did the man in the long shirt notice that Yi Chen was covered with blood, saw Yi Chen's handsome but expressionless face, and felt the violent aura that lingered all over his body. Unexpectedly, the whole body involuntarily took a few steps backwards.
"Yes............ Yes here...... The man's voice trembled, a fear that came from within his bones, because he instinctively felt that he was talking to another ferocious demon who had come out of hell instead of one...... Person.
"I'm here to sign up......" Yi Chen said lightly and undeniably.
"But this registration time has passed, and you have to wait another ten ......"
Yi Chen ignored the man's words, and said to himself: "I heard that as long as you break through the Layer Floating Pagoda, you can enter the Heavenly Fall Academy at any time and become a core disciple?"
"There is such a saying," the man said timidly, and at the same time his heart was filled with deep shock and fear.
You must know that the Futu Pagoda of the Heavenly Fall Academy is a powerful divine object handed down by the Seventh Pavilion Master, and it has killed many demon-like creatures and other strong people, and it can be said that there are countless creatures that have died in the Futu Tower, which makes the powerful power of the Futu Pagoda itself have a ferocious aura at the same time.
When the seventh pavilion master was about to sit, he obtained an extremely powerful purifying artifact by chance, and used it for a full hundred years to barely remove the ferocious qi of the first five layers, and it took hundreds of powerful prohibitions to barely stabilize the divine artifact, and then he used it to measure the amount of the academy students. At that time, this move caused many teachers and elders in the academy to rise up and oppose it, but in the end, they still couldn't resist the seventh pavilion master.
There are a total of eleven floors in the Futu Pagoda, although anyone who breaks through the fifth floor can become a core disciple, but even a powerful core disciple is not guaranteed to break through under the ferocious aura behind the fifth floor.
This ferocious aura is very difficult for people to withstand, not only in the physical pressure and damage, but also in the attack that can directly act on the primordial spirit.
Eleven layers, one layer is more dangerous than the other, according to each person's strength, each time there are different powerful evil spirits guarding the layer. The highest record in the history of the academy was one hundred years ago, when the entire academy gathered at the foot of the tower to watch. On that day, after the interloper broke through the terrifying eight-layer with his strong strength, the vision of the god king descended from the sky, accompanied by five-colored rainbow thunder and lightning, and since then, the record of this eight-story floating tower has been talked about by people for a hundred years, and that person is naturally known, and no one dares to forget this famous Beiming Qing Lord - Lan Ning.
Until half a year ago, it was the same situation as today, a young man came from nowhere and broke through the ninth-floor Futu Tower. At that time, auspicious rain fell from the sky, a living peerless unicorn phantom descended into the world and roared angrily towards the darkness of the universe, lightning and thunder roared between heaven and earth, and thunder waterfalls were like prisons, suppressing all the sounds between heaven and earth.
Naturally, that person later became the core student of the Skyfall Academy, and he also firmly occupied the first position on the Xuanling List.
Yi Chen walked towards a purple-black ancient pagoda not far away, and the man looked at Yi Chen's back walking towards the Futu Tower, standing there blankly.
Thinking in his heart: "Could it be the same genius as half a year ago?" The man came to his senses and shook his head, "How is it possible, I don't know how many people have gone to break in for half a year, aren't they all dead?"
The man shook his head, convincing himself not to be stupid.
......
Three days later
I don't know how many people gathered under the purple-black floating tower, and I can't see a dense crowd of figures.
He had already been noticed by someone when Yi Chen entered the Futu Tower on the first day, but people didn't pay attention to it and thought that he was another guy who couldn't do anything about himself.
But it wasn't until Yi Chen broke through to the fifth layer that people gathered over, more and more.
"Look at that person has reached the ninth layer!"
"yes, will there be another genius?"
"I don't think so, he'll be here. Someone said jealously.
......
There was a lot of chatter in the crowd, but everyone's attention was on the top of the Floating Tower.
Inside the Futu Tower.
Yi Chen's whole body was drenched in blood, and he was extremely miserable, and in front of him, four fierce beasts whose names he didn't know suddenly fell to the ground.
"The tenth layer of light is on!" someone shouted excitedly.
"Why did he actually break through the ninth layer, why didn't the heavens descend on the vision?"
"Could he have made it past the tenth floor?"
At this time, on the eaves of the hall in the distance, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy was sitting looking at the Futu Tower in the distance, the young man was dressed in white like snow, his face was gentle and elegant, and he had a look that made women jealous.
"So you're here!" Suddenly a figure appeared behind the man in white, a young man in black, "It seems that someone is going to break your record~"
"It doesn't matter. The man in white said in a chic and elegant manner.
"It seems that there is another terrible guy, this can make you feel stressed!" said the young man in black with a meaningful smile, holding his hands behind his head, "If you are serious, you will not be able to get past the tenth floor?" ”
"Who knows, but this time it's an interesting guy!" said the white-clothed boy Pear Vortex with a smile, playing with a piece of white jade in his hand.
......
The tenth layer of light dimmed
Yi Chen in the ten-story floating tower knelt on the ground with a dark purple halberd in his hand, and dozens of hideous corpses were lying around him.
At this time, a different voice from the previous blunt voice, this time it was a kind old man's voice: "I didn't expect you to come anyway." You don't have enough to break through to the eleventh floor, just stop! What you want is here, go out after refining!"
Suddenly, a jar of golden juice appeared in front of Yi Chen without warning. Yi Chen hesitated for a long time when he saw this, he knew in his heart that he couldn't hold it anymore at this time, even if he was exposed to the slightest fluctuation, he might faint to death.
Yi Chen picked up the jar on the ground and drank the golden juice into it in a big gulp, at this time, the thin golden mist sprayed all over his body was extremely sacred, Yi Chen's injuries healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the momentum of his whole body continued to rise.
"Look at the tenth layer of light is gone!"
"Success or failure?"
While people were talking, suddenly the sky darkened.
The wind howled, and a bolt of lightning streaked across the gloomy sky, illuminating a corner of the clouds.
"Look at what's that in the clouds?"
"Meteorite?"
"No, it's a shooting star!"
The phantom of the meteor in the clouds gradually appeared in the human field of vision, and the speed crossed the sky like light and smashed towards the tenth floor of the Futu Tower.
Bang!
There was a crackle, stirring up puffs of smoke and dust, making people cough wildly.
Everyone covered their noses and coughed loudly.
The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and a figure with a golden light slowly walked out of the tower.
"He's the one who broke through the tenth floor?" a group of young girls stumbled below.
"It's so handsome, it's so powerful. I'm fascinated," said a girl in a blue palace dress.
At this time, Yi Chen seemed to notice something, raised his head, and looked at the hall in the distance with light blue eyes.
On the eaves of the main hall, the man in white smiled slightly, made an arch hand, and said softly, "I'm glad that you entered the Heavenly Fall Academy, in the lower - Split Heaven." ”
"Yi Chen. Yi Chen felt the sincerity of the other party, so he responded with his hand.
One of them sat on the eaves, and the other was surrounded by crowds, as if there was no one else in the whole world, and under the gaze of everyone, they were communicating with their own consciousness.
The man in white laughed, stood up and walked past the man in black, waving his sleeves and pacing towards the back mountain.
"Ying Feng, there is indeed a terrible person in the academy"
