Text Chapter 83 The top of the tower
pondered repeatedly, but the information he got was too fragmented, even if Yan Chutian had the heart to explore, he was unable to understand it. But after all, there is a general explanation, that the heavenly realm hides a greater secret, and this may have something to do with that secret.
Thinking about it, the three of them had already reached the fourteenth floor, but unexpectedly, there were no bones in the depths of the place, but empty.
This made Yan Chutian's face look shocked, because he caught a glimpse of the traces of chains in the same position, and the material was equally amazing. In other words, someone was supposed to be locked here, but for some reason they disappeared!
Thinking of the possibility of being freed from it, Yan Chutian's heart shook again. Because escaping from here is obviously not easy, or even very difficult. Otherwise, it would be impossible for each layer of the previous layer to have a powerhouse of the Heavenly Realm who was locked up alive and turned into dry bones.
Among them, there is even a Chiyin True Person at the peak realm of the Tongtian Realm, even he is locked in this weird black tower, who will be the person who escaped from this fourteenth layer, and what kind of amazing cultivation will it be?!
Not only Yan Chutian was shocked, but also the autumn rain and smoke condensing bamboo who had discovered this point were all like this. Gradually, Yan Ningzhu had accepted Yan Chutian's words, so she could more clearly understand how terrifying those locked bones should have been before they died.
It is no exaggeration to say that if such a character appears at random, he can dominate the rise and fall of the entire mortal world, and he can catch the stars and the moon when he raises his hand, and the mountains and rivers are reversed.
But such a supreme powerhouse is still locked in this black tower, it is enough to imagine how amazing this black tower should be. However, in such a black tower, there was actually someone who escaped, although I don't know whether he is alive or dead, but in a way that person should be stronger than all the bones I saw before!
"Wait, listen carefully!"
Suddenly, Qiu Yu spoke solemnly, and at this time her attention was no longer on the chain that had been broken free, but in a certain direction. There was also a stone staircase leading to the top, but unlike before, there seemed to be a faint glow of fire from the space above.
Qiu Yu spoke, Yan Chutian did not doubt it, and quickly listened carefully. And under careful listening, he really heard some sounds from the direction of the stone staircase, which seemed to be the sound of some chanting, very slight, hazy and inaudible.
But Yan Chutian was sure that he had heard correctly, this kind of sound did exist. And then he looked at Qiu Yu and Yan Ningzhu, and also caught a glimpse of the two of them facing the direction of the stone staircase, and a look of surprise that could not be concealed gradually appeared on their pretty faces.
It seemed that the three of them suddenly remembered that when they had not entered the Black Tower, they saw a ray of fire on the top of the Black Tower in the outside world, and now they were obviously close to the top.
In other words, the source of the fire is likely to be above their heads!
As soon as they thought of this, they didn't need to speak, and the three of them held their breath and stared at each other with a tacit understanding, restraining all their breath, for fear of attracting the attention of something on the previous floor.
Even if we don't know what the source of the fire is, it can't be created out of thin air, it must have been done by someone. And as long as there are living beings, even if they are not the source of all this, the cultivators who just escaped from the locks of the Black Tower are the pinnacle people they can't face.
However, after staying on the fourteenth layer for less than half an hour, looking at the darkness that permeated from the thirteenth layer, Yan Chutian's face became extremely difficult to look at. They didn't want to go up to the fifteenth floor, they had to face the darkness that shrouded them, but he had a very definite feeling that if they were shrouded in that darkness, they would die and die!
"We... What to do?!"
Yan Ningzhu had already faintly taken Yan Chutian as the main backbone, not to mention that she knew Yan Chutian's true origin before. So in the face of this dilemma, she almost instinctively cast her anxious gaze on Yan Chutian.
Although the autumn rain did not increase the pressure on Yan Chutian, it was obviously waiting for Yan Chutian in silence.
Looking back and forth, Yan Chutian's face was struggling, and now even he was hesitant and couldn't make a choice immediately. However, the darkness that was getting closer and closer finally forced Yan Chutian's decision, making him grit his teeth and shout, "Ascend to the fifteenth floor, life and death... Leave it to fate!"
To make Yan Chutian shout out the four words resignation, it is obvious that he has lost any certainty, and the situation is the same, not to mention him in the face of this situation, even if it is changed to any top Tianjiao in the heavenly realm.
"Stomp..."
Before the darkness hit, the three of them gritted their teeth and rushed up the stone staircase, and rushed to the fifteenth floor. And the closer they got, the fainter the light became, and when the three of them actually reached the fifteenth floor, a green lantern could be seen, burning silently on the rotten wooden table in front of a round window in the depths.
The lights were dim, but they were so dazzling in this dimly lit space, and the round window was probably the only window in the entire Black Tower, at least at the bottom of the mystery, and they didn't see the windows on any of the floors.
However, the mysterious or strange figure in the imagination did not appear, this large space was empty, there were no locked chains, no stone staircase leading to the upper floor, only the rotten wooden table in front of the window, and the ancient lamp on the wooden table that seemed to be burning forever and seemed to have just been lit.
"Here... Nothing?"
Yan Ningzhu's pretty face was suspicious, and her beautiful eyes breathed a sigh of relief. It's always a good thing that there aren't the weirdness they imagined, at least their lives aren't threatened.
"Perhaps... That's right. ”
Yan Chutian also quietly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that things had not reached the worst situation.
It was only when the three of them relaxed a little, and suddenly there was a pervasive darkness spreading from the stone staircase they entered, enveloping them at a rapid speed. This made the three of them tense again, remembering that even though the top was not as dangerous as they imagined, the darkness that had been permeating the Black Tower since they entered it did exist.
Under this thick darkness, it seems that whatever is shrouded in it will disappear, no longer visible, no longer felt. It's dark, but it's a black hole, as if it could swallow the world.
It's not that the three of them didn't think about resisting, but they had already tried countless methods in the previous process of climbing the tower, but the results were all failures. Whatever it is, if it is touched by the darkness, it will immediately disappear silently, as if it did not exist.
The darkness swept in, and the three of them could only retreat again and again, and when they retreated, they couldn't help but have ugliness and despair on their faces. They don't know what will happen when they are shrouded in darkness, but it's never a good thing to think about.
But just when the three of them seemed to be desperate, they suddenly found that the light of the ancient lamp on the wooden table could actually block or even disperse the spreading darkness, which immediately shocked them, and they hurriedly gathered around the wooden table while being surprised.
