203, Tower of Babel
Sometimes people still have to do some good deeds, as if there is really a god in the sky overlooking everything in the world, for example, he just killed the two wicked people who slaughtered the town, and at this moment he turned enemies into friends with the Xiangxi faction, and even got the protection of the Xiangxi faction.
Li Guxing wanted to open his mouth and ask about the 'corpse introduction', but Xiang Tiantian seemed to know what he was thinking in his heart and said it first.
"I know you're looking for the 'Corpse Sweeper', which is inside the altar and guarded by a couple of bronze corpses. The head of Chu said that you have avenged so many innocent people in Xiangxi, and it is not impossible for you to take away part of the 'corpse introduction', but it is just ......"
He paused for a moment, with a sad look on his face, which made Li Guxing feel bad, for fear that there would be any more twists and turns.
"Just what? What's the difficulty? ”
Murong Yuan also became nervous, "It's not going to be a temporary change in head Chu." ”
Xiang Tianran shook his head and said, "No, Master Chu has always been the same, but you need to have a certain strength to enter there." ”
This made Li Guxing's hanging heart fall, not to mention, he still has considerable confidence in martial arts and strength, after all, he has broken through at such a dangerous juncture, and it is really impossible to ask Hou Qing and the generals to help each other, and it is expected that there will be no special difficulties.
Xiang Tianran is very good at observing words and feelings, and he can see through what Li Guxing thinks at a glance.
"This strength is not something you say is good, you need to have a proof!"
Li Guxing was interested and patted his chest.
"I'm willing to overcome any difficulty!"
Xiang Natural told the story.
Originally, their Xiangxi faction had a special place to test their strength, known as the 'Tower of Babel', and the purest 'corpse drive' was placed on the top floor of the 'Tower of Babel'.
There are ten floors in the Tower of Babel, and each floor is guarded by several bronze men, and the strength increases in order from low to high. The top layer is the legendary bronze corpse of the three ancestors, whose strength is similar to that of Ling Du Dao, and it is infinitely close to the 'Three Absolute Peaks', even if it is as strong as Bai Xiao Zhenren and Zhuge Xuance, they may not be able to come out of there alive.
Saying this, Li Guxing immediately gasped, and began to feel apprehensive in his heart again.
Murong Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Can you only go up alone?" Since it's a test, I also want to see if I'm qualified! ”
Xiang Tiantian said: "It's the same as how many people go, even if you gather thousands of troops, if you don't have the strength, the result will not have any impact on the result." ”
"Oh......"
Murong Yuan lowered his head, not feeling it in his heart.
Li Guxing secretly thought to himself, if the Tower of Babel was so powerful, he really couldn't pass it. But he had an idea, seemed to think of something again, and immediately asked.
"You said that the 'Corpse Drive' is at the top of the Tower of Babel, so how did your Xiangxi faction take out the 'Corpse Drive' and use it?"
This sentence even brought up Murong Yuan's mind, but as Li Guxing said, if the Xiangxi faction wants to use the 'corpse drive' to do great things, there must be a way to take out the 'corpse drive' from the Tower of Babel he said, otherwise they will not be able to do the big thing of rebellion.
There may be two possibilities for him to ask Li Guxing to break through the Heavenly Tower, one is to be a little perfunctory, saying that an impossible thing makes Li Guxing retreat, and he pretends to be generous. The second is that he still wants to make Li Guxing a bronze man, but he just needs to give an explanation to the people of the Xiangxi faction and let him throw himself into the net.
No matter what the reason, it didn't follow the good intentions, and it was even more of a sheep's mouth.
The two of them noticed these two points at the same time, and their eyes gradually sharpened.
But Xiang Tiantian said the third situation, which was very helpless and sad.
"To tell you the truth, even my clansmen can't take the 'corpse drive' on the Tower of Babel, otherwise you wouldn't be asked to go into danger alone

。 ”
This news made Li Guxing's jaw drop and he was at a loss.
"W-Why is that?" Isn't it something from your Xiangxi faction? ”
Xiang Tiantian said: "You have been to Tangjiabao, and you got their legendary fierce sword, no, that sword is a thing of Tangjiabao, but it has never been subjugated by the people of Tangjiabao for thousands of years, until you appear as an outsider." ”
“......”
Li Guxing and Murong Yuan were speechless, this is indeed the case, it is estimated that the 'corpse chaser' is also the same as the murderous sword 'no return', it is something that can be viewed from a distance and cannot be desecrated.
"It's hard to do......"
Li Guxing was still thinking in his heart, and a lot of worries came up.
Xiang Tiantian also poured out a sense of sorrow, and even told the truth.
"Maybe you don't believe it, my Xiangxi faction is also looking forward to you bringing the 'corpse outcast' from the Tower of Babel."
Li Guxing couldn't understand why these people would hand over such an important matter to an outsider.
But from Xiang Tian's mouth, he understood.
The Xiangxi faction is a branch of Miaojiang, a sect that evolved from witchcraft, and many of its secret arts are only mastered by the people of the Hong tribe in Miaojiang.
But with the current strength of the Xiangxi faction, they are not the opponents of the Hong people in terms of martial arts and witchcraft, so they found another way to make bronze figures.
Like Li Guxing's two murderous corpses of Houqing generals and ministers, they are also a kind of bronze people, but the first generation of Tangjiabao did not grasp them completely, and then added some of their own unique means, with the right time and place, which can make Houqing generals still have such power after a thousand years.
But the Xiangxi faction is different, they rely on the inherited 'corpse drive', this thing is similar to Gu worms, which can be reproduced and cultivated, but the power of each generation will be weakened, and there is a difference in the control and storage of corpses, which reduces the power of the copper corpse.
If the first generation of 'driving away corpses' is used, not only will it not damage the power of the copper corpse before death, but it will multiply after death, and after thousands of years of reproduction, the effectiveness of the 'corpse driving away' has weakened, and now it can only drive the corpse to walk on its own, and it has no force at all.
What's worse is that many of the bronze people handed down from their ancestors have become uncontrollable due to the gradual loss of the effect of the 'corpse expulsion', and there is even a danger of destroying the sect.
Therefore, Chu Debiao, the head of the Xiangxi faction, wanted to take out the 'corpse drive' from the Tower of Babel, so that he could better control the bronze man, and all problems would be solved.
But after all, there are not many people in the Xiangxi faction who are strong in martial arts, such as Xiang Tianren, who has practiced and cultivated to the extreme, and only broke through the five-story tower, and was almost killed by the bronze man in the tower.
Therefore, Chu Debiao can only pin his hopes on others, hoping that the junjie in the rivers and lakes can take the 'corpse drive' out of the Tower of Babel.
Hearing this, Li Guxing seemed to understand.
The Xiangxi faction protects itself to repay the favor, and the use is true.
They need to risk their lives to bring the 'corpse out', and they need to 'drive the corpse' to treat Zhao Wuqian, and the two are mutually beneficial and have common interests.
At this point, Li Guxing's vigilance against the Xiangxi faction was completely lowered, and he turned to think about how to deal with the bronze man in the Tower of Babel.
However, the first thing is not this, but to unravel the poison on his body first, after all, with the onset of poison, his body has begun to disobey the call, and there is an indescribable pain, and if he lasts for a short time, he may not even die.
But Xiang Tian didn't take the poison in his body seriously at all, and took him all the way, and in the middle of the night, he finally saw a place surrounded by clouds and mist, and the shadows of the mountains were heavy, like a fairyland.
The mountain peaks are towering, overlapping, and reaching into the clouds, one after another, and the mountains are undulating, as if all the mountains in the world are gathered here, which makes people feel indescribably solemn in their hearts, and sigh at the magic of nature.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Li Guxing looked at the earth-shattering scenery of ghosts and gods in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "This is the 100,000 mountains of Miaojiang?" ”
Xiang Tianran said: "Yes and no, but this is only the starting point of 100,000 mountains. ”
Li Guxing looked at the scenery in front of him and sighed, he has seen a lot of magnificent scenery in the north and south, although nature is magical, but sometimes it is inevitable to be a frog at the bottom of the well.
For example, now, in the face of such a thrilling scenery, it is only the tip of the iceberg, and the man's mind is magnificent.
"One day, I will see the whole picture of these 100,000 mountains!"
What he said was very big, but it made Murong Yuan yearn for it, and his face flushed. Who can not love someone who is handsome and ambitious?
But Xiang Tianran smiled haughtily, "Young man, I advise you not to see all the things, there are countless poisoned basilisks and insects in the 100,000 mountains, and even if you have the ability to reach the sky, you may not be able to get out of there." ”
Li Guxing nodded, when it comes to mystery, I am afraid that there is really no place in the world that can compare to 100,000 mountains.
A few people continued to hurry, Li Guxing was carried on the back of the bronze man as if walking on the ground, a few ups and downs, and climbed a few mountains like cliffs.
The steepness of the mountain, like a knife carved and an axe, the wind and sun have been polished for many years, although it is not slippery and does not leave hands, but it is difficult to climb up by manpower, and I don't know how high the bronze man is, and a person can jump up from the foot of the mountain so easily.
"This is the barrier of your Xiangxi faction."
Li Guxing asked, a little surprised in his heart.
Xiang Tianhuan smiled and said: "Exactly, the Xiangxi faction can stand tall in the martial arts, and dare to fight against the imperial court is by relying on the risk of geographical advantages!" ”
Although this terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it also limits its own development, the Xiangxi faction lives in this place all the year round, the people must not be prosperous, and there is little contact with people, the people's wisdom must not be opened, but it is in line with the impression of ordinary people on their mysterious backwardness, except for the 'driving away corpses' There is no other means to take action.
Xiang Tiantian looked at him, obviously guessed what he was thinking, but this was not a secret of the Xiangxi faction, nor was it something unseemly, he smiled and revealed, and shouted, "Hurry up!" ”
Before the words fell, the bronze man used a violent force under his feet, jumped four or five feet high, and Li Guxing was shocked, and after a few big starts, several people came to the top of the mountain.
As soon as the day dawned, the bronze man led them from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and the strength of the feet was truly impressive.
But Li Guxing didn't praise it too much, but was attracted by the scenery in front of him.
As far as the eye can see, there are still mountains one after another, but in the midst of the mountains, there is a large area of green oil fields around the mountains.
Next to the fields, there are some low grass huts, row upon row, closely connected.
I think this is the house where the people of the Xiangxi faction live.
Murong Yuan said: "Dare to ask, your people live around the mountain?" ”
Xiang Nature took a sharp breath of fresh air, and an intoxicated look appeared on his face.
"Yes, it is natural to live around the mountains and make fields, and it is also convenient to take care of the fields."
Murong Yuan understood it and admired it in his heart.
Li Guxing is also like this, the village is built around the mountain, the location is very advantageous, and at the same time, the traffic is strange, extending in all directions, and it is extremely convenient, so I have to admire the wisdom of the predecessors.
Looking at it from a distance, there is a vacant spot among several mountains that is particularly abrupt, as if there was originally a mountain there that was forcibly picked up by the immortals.
It was pitch black, and people had a bad premonition.
Li Guxing pointed there, "How did this come about?" How can so many mountains be empty? Could it be that you blew up a mountain? ”
Xiang Tiantian's face suddenly became solemn, "There...... There's the Tower of Babel! ”
