Chapter 197: Death Staircase

After Situ Nan's clothes changed, the person who first asked him questions before smiled and said to Situ Nan, "New here, don't mind, it was a process we have here before, you have to ask about the origin of Yun Li, you should have felt it before, there is a force acting on you, so that you can't help but answer our questions." ”

Hearing this, Situ Nan bowed slightly.

"Haha, just don't mind! Get to know me, my name is Swift. ”

"Situ Nan. ”

Listening to Situ Nan's name, the other party shook his head slightly, "That was your previous name, and you have to change your name after entering our Cloud Realm." ”

"Oh?" Situ Nan was a little puzzled when he heard this.

Looking at Situ Nan's gaze, he quickly explained, "The group of people who first entered the Cloud Realm, they didn't have as many surnames as the Nether Realm, and only chose a few words as their surnames. After them, we, as their successors, will also inherit these surnames and count them as their descendants. ”

"Is this like this?" Situ Nan heard the other party say this, but in his heart he felt that although there was no adulteration in this quick words, there were some words that were not said.

Sure enough, at this time, the other four people listened to the words of the fast step, but they retorted, "Hurry up, are you trying to deceive the newcomer? Situ Nan, right, I'll give you a real answer, it's true that you want to change your surname when you come to the Cloud Realm, but this means which force you want to join!"

Now in our cloud world, the most powerful is naturally the Yun clan, but they won't recruit newcomers easily, so don't think about it.

In addition, we, the Wind Clan, and their Illness Clan, are considered the strongest three clans under the Yun Clan, and our Wind Clan is much more established than their Illness Clan, so I hope you can consider it carefully. After all, in this cloud realm, there are many opportunities for friction between different clans. ”

Hearing this person say this, the hurried step hurriedly answered, "Hey, brother, you can't listen to their nonsense, there is absolutely nothing wrong with following our surname! Their old families look good, but in fact, after entering their interior, they have to slowly improve their qualifications, and we are new students, and we also have the benefits of new life!"

For the words of the swift step, the previous person did not refute, this kind of thing is very common, no matter where it is, it will be like this, the larger the family, the more demanding the requirements for the new recruits, and if the newcomers want to get out of the way, it is naturally much more difficult than in the new forces.

However, Situ Nan did not take the olive branch thrown by these two forces, but said, "I understand the kindness of the two, but I am a newcomer, and I still want to understand the situation clearly before thinking about the future path, so I ...... now."

Hearing Situ Nan say this, he bowed his head slightly with the other person, and said quickly, "Since it's okay for you to think like this, brother, it's good to make plans after understanding and understanding, but if you have plans in the future, you have to consider us first." ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile, "It should be so, if I have a plan in the future, the forces behind the two must be my priority." ”

"Well, in that case, then you should familiarize yourself with the situation, and we won't bother. ”

Saying that, the five people who surrounded Situ Nan before dispersed, and three of them were not members of a big force, so in front of Jian Bu and the other person, they did not open their mouths to persuade Situ Nan.

After a few people left, Situ Nan began to move on his own, looking at the situation around him.

Soon, he discovered a strange scene in this cloud realm, that is, except for the initial time when he entered the cloud realm, the people in other places were extremely rare, and there were a few people on a street, which looked extremely deserted.

Just as Situ Nan was wandering around casually, he found a building in front of him, and the sound inside was noisy, and it seemed that there were quite a few people.

As soon as his heart moved, Situ Nan moved closer to that side, wanting to see what kind of place it was and why there were so many people.

Walking over, Situ Nan found that there was no name on the outside of the building, only a long knife horizontal on the plaque, which seemed to be a kind of symbol.

Walking towards the door, after Situ Nan entered the door, he found that the building looked a little shabby, with a table in the middle, and a person was sitting behind the table, dozing off boredly.

Beside him, there was a door on the left and right sides, a battle character written on the left door, and a view character on the right door.

Looking at this appearance, Situ Nan roughly guessed what kind of place this was, and thought it should be similar to places like gambling and fighting in the ring.

Walking forward, Situ Nan woke up the dozing man and asked, "What do you need to do here to participate in the battle or watch the battle?"

The man was still a little confused after being woken up by Situ Nan, and after hearing Situ Nan's question, he looked at Situ Nan with some surprise, "You don't know our rules here?"

"Can't you?"

"Yes, yes, but since you don't know, then you should be a newcomer, which force to join?"

When Situ Nan heard this, he frowned, "Do I need to answer?"

"No! out of pure curiosity. Seeing that Situ Nan didn't want to say anything, this person didn't say anything more, and instead answered Situ Nan's previous question, "Since you are new here, I will tell you in detail."

We don't have a name here, but we've given it a nickname, the Death Staircase. ”

"Death Staircase?" Situ Nan couldn't help muttering when he heard this, he could hear a bloody wind in the four words.

"That's right, I don't know if you don't know, in our Cloud One Realm, although there will be a release of cloud power once a month for us to absorb, but due to the long time interval and the amount is not large, generally these cloud powers are divided by various forces, and it is basically impossible for ordinary scattered people to obtain cloud power.

And among the major forces, if you want to obtain cloud power, you have to become the upper echelon of this force, or have some credit.

In this way, it is naturally difficult for us ordinary people to obtain cloud power. ”

Hearing this, Situ Nan bowed slightly, and at the same time, he also knew from the other party's words that this cloud power could only be absorbed at a certain time, not through cultivation as he had thought before.

"Because of this, everyone naturally thought of a quick way to obtain cloud power. As he spoke, the man cast an inexplicable look at Situ Nan.

"Murder?" Situ Nan spit out two words when he heard this.

"That's right!" Hearing that Situ Nan thought of the key so quickly, the other party couldn't help but cast an approving look at Situ Nan.

"Since it is too difficult for us ordinary people to obtain cloud power, then only by gathering the cloud power of our people together can we improve ourselves and go to the higher cloud realm. ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he couldn't help but have a question in his heart, "Why do you have to go to the higher cloud realm?"

When the other party heard Situ Nan's question, he was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Situ Nan deeply, "Because in the Cloud One Realm, we people can only survive for three years!"

"What?" Situ Nan exclaimed, he had never heard of such a thing before.

"So in order to survive, everyone will come here in the end, either die or take someone else's cloud power to the next cloud realm!

Only when you go to the next cloud realm will your lifespan be increased by another three years. ”

Hearing the other party say this, Situ Nan couldn't help but think of the monks in the "Nether Realm" who wanted to come to the "Upper Realm", did they know that once they came here, they would most likely only live for three years?

"Generally speaking, how much cloud power does it take to enter the next cloud realm?" asked Situ Nan.

"Ten people!"

"Ten?"

"Hmm!"

This number made Situ Nan can't help but see a ladder covered in blood!

"What are the requirements if you want to fight?"

"After all, if your cloud power is improved after victory, your status in this cloud realm will also be improved, and for us, it can be regarded as a favor, isn't it?"

"Makes sense. ”

"And if you sign up, we will immediately choose a monk of the same realm for you, if there is no monk of the same realm, we will choose a monk of a higher realm for you, of course, we will inform you in advance, if you don't agree, we will naturally not force it. ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he bowed slightly, "I'll sign up." ”

"Don't think about it, in this cloud realm, whether it is housing or food, it is free, you can choose to live a happy life for three years before you come to fight, so it is not in vain your hard work from the nether realm. ”

Hearing what the other party said, Situ Nan immediately knew that the other party was a kind-hearted and quick-minded person, "Why do you say it's three years?"

"Hehe, anyone who has been here for more than three days has no one who doesn't know our death ladder, and you don't even know some basic information, naturally you can't be an old man in the Cloud One Realm, if you are not an old man, you are naturally a newcomer. ”

"That's right! However, I still want to participate in a battle to try, after all, we are monks, if we don't have vitality, what kind of cultivation can we talk about? If I have the opportunity, I naturally want to go to the world above to see it. ”

Hearing Situ Nan say this, this person couldn't help but look at him deeply, and then said, "Okay! Since that's the case, then I'll satisfy you!"

As he spoke, he took a badge from the drawer of the table and handed it to Situ Nan, "Put this on, enter through the left door, and someone will take you to the battle." ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he took the badge, "Thank you." ”

"Hehe, I hope you don't regret it. ”

Situ Nan smiled slightly, shook his head, and then put the badge on his chest and walked into the door on the left.

After Situ Nan left, the man stood quietly in place for a while, then his eyes regained their brilliance, took out a badge from his arms, put it on his chest, and walked into the door on the left side like Situ Nan.

......

After entering the door, a person appeared in front of Situ Nan, and after looking Situ Nan up and down, he nodded to him, and then walked forward.

Seeing this, Situ Nan didn't have any doubts, and followed the other party into the bottom of a ring.

"Someone will call you later, you just go up. ”

Seeing Situ Nan bowing slightly, the other party turned around and disappeared from Situ Nan's field of vision.

After the other party left, Situ Nan silently felt the surrounding situation, there was a noise above his head at this time, and from time to time there were spiritual power fluctuations transmitted from the barrier above, although these spiritual powers lost their aggressiveness, but Situ Nan could still feel the fierceness of the battle from these spiritual power fluctuations.

After waiting quietly for about half a pillar of incense, the spiritual power fluctuations above disappeared, and in just five breaths, a voice appeared in Situ Nan's ears.

"The fight begins, please get to the ring as soon as possible for contestant No. 358. ”

Hearing this voice, Situ Nan took a few steps forward and walked up a step that could be climbed, because the number on his badge was number 358.

When Situ Nan stepped on this round step, this round platform slowly rose, and soon Situ Nan appeared in a ring.

At this time, there was also a person on the other side, who was taking the round platform where he was, slowly rising, and the first thing that caught Situ Nan's eyes was the other party's hair that reached into the sky, and then the other party's dark eyes.

There is no referee, no commentary, but there is a huge stand around, and at this time they are staring at the round platforms in the middle, on which a pair of players are fighting fiercely, and from time to time someone will be splashed with blood on the spot.

In the battle here, there is no such thing as admitting defeat, there is no such thing as a draw, only one side lives and one side dies! Oh no, if both of them die, it is a draw.

Seeing Situ Nan, the other party was stunned for a moment, and then spoke, "How many years have you been in the Cloud One Realm?"

"One day. ”

"Oh, it's only been a day, you're here, why don't you wait, at least get used to the use of cloud power, and then you can't participate?"

"Hehe, let's get started. Here, I don't want to stay even one more day. ”

The latter sentence was said by Situ Nan in his heart.

When the other party saw Situ Nan say this, he didn't ink anymore, and rushed directly towards Situ Nan, before he said a few more words, just because Situ Nan looked too young.

As the man said before, the people who come here to fight basically spend most of their three years before coming back to fight.

After all, in this way, whether it is cultivation, or the accumulation and utilization of cloud power, there will be a great progress, like Situ Nan, who participated in the battle of life and death to obtain cloud power here, basically did not have it before.

In the face of the other party's attack, Situ Nan's heart moved, he wanted to hook the power of his wind attribute rules, when he was in the place of trials before, he had made a great improvement in the control of this power, at least he would no longer be like before, he must need the existence of a violent wind, or he must come and go like a violent storm to riot.

At this time, he can already simply use the power of the wind attribute rules in his actions, and this power will have a good effect after acting on his Lost Steps.

But when he was about to use the power of the wind attribute rules, he was surprised to find that this power was actually trapped by a mysterious force, and he couldn't use it for a while.

Suddenly encountering a change, Situ Nan didn't have time to think about the reason, stepped on the trail, hurriedly dodged the opponent's attack, retreated to the rear, and quietly watched the other party's next move.

As for the matter of the power of the wind attribute rules, he didn't think about it for the time being, after all, in the battle of life and death, those things still had to wait until the moment of safety to think about it.

After dodging the other party's attack, the other party was not too surprised, after all, he was just a tentative attack, if Situ Nan couldn't dodge it, then the other party's next attacks would naturally follow one after another, and would not give Situ Nan any respite.

Another dodge, the other party once again rushed in the direction where Situ Nan was, and when he reached the position three meters in front of Situ Nan's body, ten spiritual powers rushed out from the opponent's fingertips, alternately moving forward, and went straight to Situ Nan.

Seeing the opponent's attack, he noticed that the density of this attack was extraordinary, so Situ Nan did not dodge with the Lost Trace Step anymore, but transmitted the spiritual power to the palms of his two hands, and then clenched his palms into fists and attacked towards the ten spiritual powers in front of him.

"Pegasus Meteor Fist!"

After adding the fourth attribute, the power of Situ Nan's attack of this set of fists also increased, after all, it was a mixed damage of four attributes, compared to ordinary spiritual attacks, it naturally had its own advantages.

Sensing Situ Nan's four-color fist, the other party's face changed, and he exclaimed, "What kind of attack are you?"

The tyrannical energy fluctuations coupled with the other party's exclamation immediately attracted the attention of some spectators around, because Situ Nan and the other person were both fresh faces here, so their eyes did not notice here, until Situ Nan's attack was issued, it attracted the attention of many people.

Situ Nan did not respond to the other party's question, after using the Pegasus Meteor Fist to break through the opponent's ten spiritual powers, taking advantage of the aftertaste, Situ Nan rushed towards the other party, and at the same time, the fist in his hand was still there, but the power was much weaker than before.

Sensing the tyranny of the energy in Situ Nan's hand, the other party's heart jumped, and after sensing that something was wrong, he directly used the Izumo power to let Situ Nan's attack fall in the air.

Fortunately, after Situ Nan attacked, he thought that the other party might use Izumo power, so he didn't hit the rest of the attack quickly, and he didn't use the wrong force and was counterattacked by his own martial arts.

After the other party used cloud power to disappear in front of Situ Nan, Situ Nan did not use cloud power for the first time and entered the same state as the other party.

Because Situ Nan knew that compared to Yun Li, he was just a fledgling newcomer, and compared to the monks of this Cloud One Realm, he should be the one who could not use Yun Li the most, so he naturally wouldn't do that kind of stupid thing to attack the enemy's strengths with his own shortcomings.

At this time, he was silently probing the surrounding movements with his spiritual power, trying to find some clues and detect the other party's movements.

Since Situ Nan had already entered the state of using cloud power before, he had an inaccurate feeling about the general purpose and principle of cloud power.

Although it is not accurate, this is also a direction, at this time, the other party is the first person to use cloud power in front of him after he has cloud power, Situ Nan will naturally not let go of this opportunity, properly explore the wonders and loopholes of this cloud power, and accumulate experience for the later battles.

Halfway through the inspection, Situ Nan didn't find anything, although he felt that there was something abnormal around, but it couldn't find the source of this anomaly.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, the man turned his palm into a knife, and was slashing at Situ Nan's neck.

At the moment when the other party appeared, Situ Nan, who had been locking on the surrounding spiritual power, suddenly noticed a wonderful energy fluctuation, and at the same time, Situ Nan used the Lost Trace Step again, because the distance was too close, so Situ Nan just avoided the front of the opponent's attack.

After that, Situ Nan blocked with a backhand, and his hands were just on the hand knife in the other party's view.

After blocking the opponent's attack, Situ Nan took a few steps back, then hit the ground with his right foot, and rushed forward with the help of the recoil force on the ground, and at the same time, his right hand had unconsciously condensed five small life and death balls, which were moving closer to the opponent with Situ Nan's body.

Facing Situ Nan's figure stepping forward again, the other party did not feel afraid, but instead greeted him, until the other party was one meter away from Situ Nan, he noticed the rich spiritual power fluctuations contained in Situ Nan's right hand behind him.

Under the drastic change in his face, the other party's heart moved, and he used the Izumo power again, and his body quickly blurred, and he was about to disappear into Situ Nan's attack as before.

But at this moment, the five life and death balls in Situ Nan's hands suddenly rushed forward and exploded! Directly lifting the opponent out of the state that was about to be virtualized.

At this time, the other party did not completely use cloud power to virtualize himself, but the result was directly impacted by Situ Nan's life and death ball, although part of it had been virtualized, but the other part was in a semi-physical state, so under Situ Nan's attack, it was a heavy injury!

"How could you? How could you attack me?" After the other party was attacked by Situ Nan, the most in his heart was not the fear of impending death, not the frustration of failure, but the puzzlement, why he was attacked by Situ Nan.

The same question not only appeared on the other party, but also the audience who had been watching the battle situation here before was also puzzled at this time, but some of these smart people had a guess in their hearts.

Facing the other party's question, Situ Nan did not answer, secretly saying in his heart that his previous guess was correct, and at the same time, a few steps forward, a ball of life and death was thrown towards the other party, and with an explosion, bursts of cloud power also poured out from the other party's body and came to Situ Nan's body.

After feeling that the cloud power in his body was abundant, Situ Nan bowed slightly, and then walked out of the right side of the ring, a passage belonging to the winner, and disappeared into the eyes of the surrounding spectators.

After walking out of the ring area, one of them greeted Situ Nan and said, "Congratulations, congratulations, you won the first battle." ”

Hearing the other party's words, Situ Nan glanced at the other party up and down, and found that the other party was dressed the same as the person who received him before, before he spoke, "Help me sign up for the next one." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing Situ Nan's words, the other party couldn't help but be stunned.

"You just finished participating in a battle, don't you want to take a break?" The other party unconsciously used an honorific title for Situ Nan.

When Situ Nan heard this, he shook his head, "No need." ”

When the other party heard Situ Nan say this, he didn't persuade him any more, and said to Situ Nan, "Since that's the case, then I wish you the next battle can also win calmly like before." ”

As he spoke, the other party stretched out his hand behind him, and a person stepped forward and took Situ Nan to the location of the next ring.

On the way to the bottom of the ring, Situ Nan was recovering from the previous consumption while reviewing the previous battle, at this time he still had a guess in his heart, although the previous experiment was successful, he still needed to confirm it again.

After waiting at the bottom of the ring for a while, the familiar voice sounded in his ears again.

"The fight begins, please get to the ring as soon as possible for contestant No. 358. ”

Hearing this voice, Situ Nan stopped remembering, took a few steps forward, and returned to the ring again.

......
