Chapter 499: The Old Man in the Tower
Time passed quietly in a cautious hurry. Along the way, to Zhang Hao's surprise, this shijie is not static, there seems to be a mysterious operation of liliang, like people are in the midst of surging waves, even if they stay in place, they will slowly approach the majestic building.
Along the way, Zhang Hao went through many experiments and was even more surprised to find that this shijie would appear a random teleportation similar to space rotation every once in a while. This teleportation is not a sudden delivery of people to a certain place, but a conversion between parts of the space, which is extremely magical.
As time passed, when the behemoth appeared in the line of sight, Zhang Hao's pace slowed down slowly, and then cautiously found a place with a relatively stable space to stand still, and then he raised his eyes again.
This huge mysterious giant tower stands quietly, its appearance and shape are exactly the same as the Phantom Beast Tower on Zhengyuan Dalu, the majestic ancient aura fluctuation permeated by the tower body, countless spatial cracks and black holes are densely intertwined, swallowing each other and sending out bursts of mournful whistling sounds, making the void in front of the tower continue to ripple out layers of destructive energy ripples, although in the visual inspection of this chaotic area is only a few feet away, but if you don't find a feasible path, if you step into it so rashly, I'm afraid that a top divine master will be torn to piecesγ
His gaze moved up slightly, and Zhang Hao's eyes couldn't help but stare at it. At this time, in the center of the tower, there are two convex black arcs that extend out, and the black arcs present a figure-eight angle. The black arc on the left was holding a violently trembling box, while the hoop ring of the black arc on the right had broken. The sky above it was empty.
"Sure enough!"
Looking at the box from afar that was affected by the powerful tearing force of the void's continuous ripples, Zhang Hao felt a little worried for no reason. If this box was unshackled again, he didn't dare to imagine if it would have the good fortune of the previous box and be able to pass through such a violent void in front of him once again and be preserved intact.
"We have to find a way to get over as soon as possible. β
Although the void in front of him was very chaotic, while observing, Zhang Hao also found that the countless spatial cracks and whirlpools were slowly swimming, and there was always a zigzag gap that constantly changed its trajectory until it spread in front of the giant tower.
His eyes flickered for a long time, and finally Zhang Hao gritted his teeth fiercely. Turn the ball of your foot slightly. Without hesitation, he flew towards the chaotic space in front of him. These dragon scales had involved the Holy Illusion Divine Tree and the Evil Kun, and with the previous inference of the old man, he knew in his heart that the secrets recorded on them would not be small. Moreover, the giant tower in front of him is extremely similar to the Phantom Beast Tower. Maybe it has a close relationship with Zen Qian. Either way. Zhang Hao is bound to get this dragon scale.
Step into the chaotic space in front of you. The oncoming violent aura made Zhang Hao's face change suddenly, but what made him feel a little relieved was that it seemed that this snake-like gap was the only entrance to the giant tower. Staying in it, although you can feel the overwhelming aura of destruction and tearing outside, you will not be affected in any way.
As he went deeper, Zhang Hao's footsteps moved more and more slowly, and even at a certain moment, he stayed in place for several minutes without moving a single step. Although the narrow space in the gap passage is relatively stable, it can constantly change the direction of travel along with the turbulence of the surrounding space.
A few zhang distance, finally reached the end after more than ten minutes, when he stepped into the stable space in front of the giant tower, turned his head to look back, Zhang Hao exhaled deeply.
"Squeak"
At this time, the position where Zhang Hao was standing was a small platform extending out in front of the giant tower. However, the next moment, it seemed that the platform felt the weight of the uninvited guest standing, and the entire platform began to move and retract, and at the same time, the huge tower door in front of him also slowly opened.
As the tower door opened, a dazzling milky light surged like waves, and Zhang Hao subconsciously raised his palm to cover his eyes. As the light faded, he could clearly see an illusory old figure walking out of the center of the halo.
"Master?" The old man who appeared in front of him had a somewhat blurred face and body, but Zhang Hao still recognized the identity of the other party at first glance from the familiar outline.
"It's ten thousand years in a turn, I didn't expect that when this residual thought was about to dissipate, I finally waited for you!" There were not many words, Zhang Hao could see that when the old man spoke, his vague face was full of smiles, which made his heart can't help but have complex emotions.
If he came to this side before knowing the identity of Chan Qian, Zhang Hao knew in his heart that the identity of the former would also be self-evident, but at this moment, it was the opposite. Since coming to Zhengyuan Dalu, he has heard and witnessed many incredible stories about the other party, and for more than 80,000 years since he flew away, the mysterious old man in front of him has left too many shocks and miracles. It is difficult for Zhang Hao to describe the mood of facing Zen Qian again in words, perhaps once some estrangement is formed in his heart, it is difficult to reverse it.
"Huh"
Glancing at Zhang Hao's complicated face, the old man shook his head slightly, and then he waved his hand into the air, and the box that was bound to the arc of the tower body flashed and fell in his palm.
"There are a total of eight dragon scales in this one, and the one recorded on it is the Eight Desolation Demon Devouring created by the old man. Only when the eight pieces are put together can we get a glimpse of the ultimate meaning of the soul technique. It will be the key to breaking through this void and entering the divine realm in the future, and in order to cultivate this soul skill, the spiritual dispersion must reach forty-nine strands. Handing the box to Zhang Hao, the old man sighed heavily and explained.
"Eight Desolation Demon Devouring!"
When these four words really caught his ears, Zhang Hao's face couldn't help but turn. At the beginning, Old Man Zan had mentioned the powerful existence of the ancestors of all soul techniques, but at that time it was just an introduction to understand the knowledge of soul skills, and he never thought that these mysterious dragon scales that originally recorded Haotian Soul Skills at most in Old Man Zan were really Zen Qian's original Eight Desolation Demon Devouring Origin Diagram.
Holding the ancient box tightly in his hand, and looking up at the old man in front of him, Zhang Hao's heart was in chaos. At this time, he had too many questions to ask, but for a while, he couldn't figure out any clues.
"What happened 80,000 years ago, does this change that can no longer fly have anything to do with you?" put the box away, and after a moment of silence, Zhang Hao finally asked.
"Hey"
With a long sigh, the old man bowed his head slightly, and his tone was lonely: "The time for this remnant thought to exist is running out, so I'll make a long story short!"
After sorting out his thoughts a little, the old man spoke: "When I was young, the incomparable talent created the old man's arrogant and uninhibited character, and in less than thirty years, I completed the dream of some illusionists to pursue a lifetime, and reached the top of Zhengyuan Dalu and became a master of divine masters. β
"In the ancient times, the excellent cultivation conditions gave birth to many sects and powerful families, and the number of them was far beyond your imagination. The old man's background is not good, and he is free by nature, so after growing up quickly, he rejected the olive branches thrown by countless shili, and has always been independent and does his own thing. And as my strength increased, my existence gradually violated the interests of several top shili in Zhengyuan Dalu at that time and the glory and dignity that they had passed down for dozens of generations. β
"When jealousy accumulates to a certain extent, it becomes an undying hatred. In the following hundred years, in the continuous pursuit and counter-pursuit, the old man not only successfully survived, but also killed nearly 100 top divine masters who participated in the siege and killing of these major families with the power of one person, and finally made these shili fall apart and be destroyed. As a result, I have also become the recognized number one master of Zhengyuan Dalu, and I enjoy the admiration of countless people. Wherever you go, you get supreme glory and a look of awe from the heart. β
"I have survived more than 100 years of non-stop pursuit, and as a result, I have killed nearly 100 divine masters with the power of one person!"
These words came out of the old man's mouth, and his tone was extremely flat, as if he was telling the story of someone else, but at this moment, Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel a surge of blood in his heart. It is hard to imagine how Chan Qian was able to survive under the siege of several top shili of Zhengyuan Dalu for more than 100 years, and how he could reverse and destroy these shili. After he really made such an earth-shattering and unimaginable feat, while enjoying everyone's attention and worship, who can know the hardships and pains of more than a hundred years? Perhaps, if the person who died at that time had been a Zen worker, I am afraid that the result would have been completely opposite, and this so-called 'god' in the eyes of everyone would have become a fool who competed to ridicule him.
Exhaling deeply, the old man shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "Really become the first person in this shijie, at the beginning, no matter where you go, you can hear the world tirelessly praising your deeds, and whoever you are, you will have a sense of accomplishment in the depths of your heart." Over time, it was this glory and achievement that once again magnified my arrogant character. At that time, on this dalu, the old man really felt that he was the 'god' in everyone's mouth, and there was nothing that I couldn't do in ancient times!"
"Sometimes, when you are praised to a certain height, people will be blind, blind to arrogant, blind to crazy. And I did lose myself in the midst of countless praises. So when I was about to have the ability to tear apart the Void Flying God Realm, I once again did a feat that was enough to overturn the entire summoner Shijie in an exclamation!"
"It is to challenge the master of this shijie with the body of a mortal, the two heavens god thunder!"
Speaking of this, the old man sighed with emotion, stared at Zhang Hao, who was stunned at this time, and continued: "But I lost! And challenging the Lord is almost equivalent to challenging the majesty of the will of the Divine Realm. Those consequences made me collapse for the next 300 years!"
"What consequences?"
Looking at the chaotic aura fluctuations rippling on the old man's body, and his body began to become transparent at a speed visible to the naked eye, Zhang Hao secretly swallowed his throat. I have to say that Chan Qian's behavior was indeed a little too arrogant, but what made him even more curious was what kind of consequence made the other party delay stepping into the divine realm for nearly three hundred years.
"In that battle, the master who held the power of the space given by the Divine Realm shattered the phantom beast space in my brain domain by supreme means, but kept the Divine Soul Array intact. In other words, I have lost the Phantom Beast since then, which also means that I have lost the qualification to step into the divine realm!" (To be continued......)
