The corpses in the tower on the first floor did not look like they had been killed at all, but had been torn to pieces by some wild beast. Chen Xi looked at this bloody scene, and then looked at the row of black-armored warriors standing in front of the stone steps. These black-armored warriors were as cold as stone statues as if they had never moved.

"They're Taru. ”

The old man explained to Chen Xi: "Back then, Li Lanfeng built the re-transportation tower and devoted his whole life's work. Because he was so focused on building this tower, his will was also integrated into this tower. The so-called Ta Lu was actually a wisp of his mind back then. The re-luck tower he worked so hard to build naturally would not allow anyone to destroy it. ”

Chen Xi was taken aback, and tore a few cultivators close to the Lingshan Realm, but it was just a wisp of thought that Li Lanfeng had melted into the tower when he built this Fortune Transformation Tower. So how powerful was Li Lanfeng in his heyday? Chen Xi couldn't imagine that he was almost certain that the 990-step diameter divine tree in Kunlun Mountain was cut off by Li Lanfeng.

But that divine tree is so huge, Li Lanfeng only brought back a branch to make a green wood sword, where did the rest of the divine wood go?

"The stone gate can't stop those people outside, and it won't be long before they will attack it. ”

The old man continued: "Now that the inner sect is in chaos, those people have tried their best to get Shenteng. Originally, I thought that they were just sending some young cultivators to investigate, but now I understand what the purpose of sending those young people with extraordinary qualifications is. ”

"Of the young people who came in to practice, there were twelve people with a special mission. Not long ago, these twelve men activated the array they were carrying. These twelve array weapons were all refined by the great cultivators at the peak of the Spirit Mountain Realm with the power of their natal power, and once they were activated, they could destroy the enchantment of the Inner Sect. Therefore, even if Wang Hate changed the enchantment and could not pass, I was afraid that it would not be long before the enchantment of the Inner Sect would be broken by the array. ”

Chen Xi suddenly realized that the sect master of the Little Mantian Sect was called Wang Hate, and he asked, "Since those people are for Shenteng, why do they spend so much effort to destroy the enchantment of the Inner Sect?"

"I told you before. ”

The old man said: "These people are too greedy, they want more than just Shenteng and the Nine Colored Stones, they also want the power from the Endless Abyss. Because Li Lanfeng killed too many people in order to protect the Endless Abyss, and the national teacher was unwilling to talk about it. Therefore, those people thought that what was hidden in the endless abyss was not a danger, but some powerful treasure. ”

Chen Xi couldn't help but sigh: "Human nature is greedy. ”

The old man nodded: "I don't have time to say this now, I have to tell you the secret of the Fortune Transformation Tower and the secret of the Nine Shadows Dungeon, and then you will enter it as soon as the Inner Sect Barrier is broken, and find a chance to enter the Nine Shadows Dungeon." The two men guarding the gate of the boundary wall are very strong, and as long as they are still there, they will not be able to attack them for a while. After you go in, you can save your father as much as possible, and only he can launch the True Protector Array of the Mantian Sect. ”

Chen Xi asked, "Will those two old men let me in?"

"Yes. ”

The old man said, "I have already greeted them, and they will let you in." The two of them, one is called Xie Xin'an, and the other is called Fan Yousheng, who were loyal subordinates who were subdued when Li Lanfeng suppressed the Endless Abyss. So even after all these years, the two of them still guard the Guardian Boundary Wall. ”

"What is the boundary wall?"

"The boundary wall is a wall built by Li Lanfeng who collected the boulders on the stone wall of Kunlun Mountain and the Jinsha River in Yongzhou. In that wall, the souls of the things that were killed by Li Lanfeng back then, those things came from the endless abyss, powerful and fierce, Li Lanfeng killed their bodies, but could not destroy their souls, so the boundary wall was built to seal these souls in it. The things in the Endless Abyss have one characteristic...... That is, the body is destroyed but the soul is immortal, even Li Lanfeng did not find a way to completely kill these things back then. ”

Chen Xi was shocked and asked, "Is there anything in this world that can't be killed?"

"Yes"

The old man said: "Li Lanfeng didn't find it at that time, it doesn't mean that there isn't." The things in the Endless Abyss are far more powerful than humans, and Li Lanfeng exhausted half of his life to find a little truth before he died. I can't tell you what the truth is, because it's too cruel...... If you rescue your father, you will know if he is willing to sue you. ”

Chen Xi was really curious why the old man was reluctant to say this.

"You're going to climb the nine-story tower now. ”

The old man raised his head and looked at it: "I will teach you to open the defenses from the first layer of the tower to the eighth layer of the tower, even if the great cultivators at the peak of the Spirit Mountain Realm come in, they will be blocked for a while." But the tower is a dead thing after all, and has no soul, so no matter how powerful the defense is, there will be a time to break through. You don't have a lot of time, and I'll tell you these while walking. ”

Chen Xi immediately turned around and walked up without delaying for a second.

......

......

As he ascended the tower one by one, the old man taught him to open up the defenses of each floor of the tower. Chen Xi saw that the defense of the second-story tower was a black-armored warrior, although there was only one person, but the old man said that the combat power of this person was far greater than that of the nine black-armored warriors on the first-floor tower.

The defense of the three-story tower was a jade bottle, and Chen Xi didn't know what kind of magic effect this jade bottle had. But since it can defend the three-story tower, it must be extremely terrifying. The four-story tower is a sword box, the sword box is open, and there is nothing inside. The old man told Chen Xi that this sword box was a relic of an elder of the Mantian Sect back then, and it was very powerful.

The defense of the five-story tower is a bronze mirror. After opening the mechanism, a bronze mirror pops out of the wall. When Chen Xi passed by the bronze mirror, he found that there was a pair of eyes looking at him in the mirror. He retreated in shock, but the old man floated over to block between him and the mirror in an instant: "Don't look again, or you will be gone." ”

The defense of the six-story tower is a hemp rope, and Chen Xi really can't see anything special about this hemp rope. It's like the hemp rope sold in the bazaar of the mortal world is no different, and I don't know how many years old it is, and it looks like it can be pulled hard with a single pull. The old man said that the power on this hemp rope was enough to give a headache to a master like Huang Xiwen.

The defense on the seven-story tower is a drop of water.

The defense of the eight-story tower is a wisp of green silk.

Chen Xi has been to the seven-story tower, and he has heard Gao Qingshu mention the eight-story tower. At this time, I came up in person to find the extraordinary features of this eight-story tower, according to the reason, the tower is thinner and thinner the higher, so the space in the tower is smaller. But after Chen Xi came up, he was surprised to find that the eight-story tower was as wide as a big hall.

It takes at least five or six minutes to walk from one end to the other. This should be a very wonderful spatial power, and Chen Xi's current cultivation realm is not yet able to control or even figure out this power. The old man told him that the divine protector of the Great Mantian Sect was working in the eight-story tower, preparing food and clothes for the gods.

Chen Xi thought of what Gao Qingshu said, and couldn't help but ask: "Senior, Mr. Gao once said that they had entered the eight-story tower more than once, but they had never seen the true face of Shenteng. It's just that once I saw a huge tail hanging down from above, which was terrifying and terrifying...... What the hell is it?"

"Shen Teng is the closest thing to God. ”

The old man replied, "Although Shen Teng is not a god, it is rumored that he is a slave of God. He once followed God and created this world, and has a power far beyond the cultivators of this world. Because God lived in Kunlun back then, Shen Teng has always stayed in Kunlun. Later, God left this world, but did not take Shenteng with him. ”

Chen Xi couldn't help but ask: "In this world, there really are gods?"

The old man raised his head and looked at it, and said slowly: "There is a divine seat in the sky, overlooking the world. Everyone says that there is a God but no one has ever seen God, because God does not care about human affairs. I used to think that there was no god in the world, and I didn't realize how naïve I was until I died......"

Chen Xi subconsciously asked, "Senior, how did you die back then?"

The old man's expression stiffened slightly, and then he smiled: "It's all in the past few hundred years, and I don't remember it myself." It may have been that I have lived too long and died of old age, or that I have been killed by someone else. But how I died doesn't matter now, it's not this that you need to be curious about. ”

Chen Xi nodded, not to ask again.

The old man looked at the stone steps and seemed to hesitate: "Shen Teng doesn't like others to disturb him, so even the divine protector of the Great Mantian Sect can only put the prepared things in the eight-story tower. And Shen Teng is moody, and the reason why he stays is because he likes the Nine Color Stone. He doesn't care who it is, so if anyone annoys him, he can only ask for more blessings...... Li Lanfeng had indeed reached a very powerful point back then, but he still didn't dare to anger Shen Teng, but grabbed the nine-colored stone to lure Shen Teng forward. ”

"Senior, the beads hanging on the top of each layer are nine-colored stones?"

"No, it's just a companion stone of the Nine-Colored Stone, which has always been on the Nine-Story Tower, and no one can approach it except Shen Teng. ”

Chen Xi remembered these words in his heart, and Li Lanfeng's strength was beyond doubt. The cultivation of the medicine woman and Gao Kuang outside should be at least above the fifth grade of the Lingshan Realm, and the old man said that Li Lanfeng had killed many top cultivators of the Cave Realm in a row, and the gap between them Chen Xi still can't understand.

Even with such a powerful Li Lanfeng, he didn't dare to anger Shen Teng.

"Are you ready?"

The old man asked Chen Xi, "If you want to go to the Nine Shadows Dungeon to rescue your father, you must use the power of Shenteng." You're in danger of unforeseen danger, and there's nothing I can do to help you. As I said earlier, Shen Teng is the closest to God, and even if I live, there is nothing I can do. After you go up, you may die, or you may be lucky enough to get the help of the gods, these are all unknown......"

Chen Xi took a deep breath and asked himself if he was afraid of death? He replied that he did, even if he had died once, he was still afraid of death. But it was precisely because he had died once that he knew that some feelings were worth saving and maintaining at the cost of death. If there was really a god who said to Chen Xi to exchange your life for the health and stability of your family in your previous life, Chen Xi might not hesitate.

After dying once, he realized that it was that kind of emotion that he really couldn't bear.

"I'm ready. ”

Chen Xi raised his head and looked at the stone steps: "No matter what I am facing, I must go up." If I die to save my parents, I willingly. If I die and can't save my parents, I have a clear conscience. ”

The old man nodded: "Young man, you should have such courage and responsibility. ”

Chen Xi strode forward and climbed the stone steps.

Gao Qingshu said that just seeing one of Shenteng's tails almost cost everyone half a life at that time. Chen Xi imagined that it should be a divine beast that was far more powerful than the phoenix, and the power of a human being had no meaning in front of that level of existence. If you are not careful, you will be killed by Shen Teng.

But he did not hesitate or regret it, he had to go up. His spirit tensed, and even his breathing became rapid. He didn't know what he was going to see, what kind of thing it was going to be. The moment he ascended the nine-story tower, he even heard his own heartbeat louder than his breathing.
