Chapter 178: The Beginning of the Challenge
Qi Yunfei smiled with relief and said, "If you can comprehend this, I have nothing to worry about." Rest quickly, heal from your injuries before talking about anything else. ”
Three days later, Qi Jian's injuries had almost recovered. Although the injuries were not light, fortunately, they were all traumatic injuries and recovered relatively quickly.
Qi Jian was not worried about Zhu Yan's condition, so he went to visit the guest room where she was placed, but found that Zhu Yan was still unconscious, which made his heart that had been put down suddenly rise to his throat again.
After obtaining Qi Yunfei's consent, Qi Jian took Zhu Yan to his room and took care of him day and night. However, another three days have passed, and Zhu Yan's condition has not improved.
Zhu Yan looked as usual, and his breathing and pulse were unusually stable, not like the weak state of being too injured. Qi Jian's ability is limited, and he can't find the reason why Zhu Yan is difficult to wake up in any case.
Zhu Yan is now like a princess in a deep sleep, but her knights, though they are by her side, are still unable to wake her up.
Qi Jian looked at Zhu Yan's tightly closed eyes, and his heart was very uncomfortable. The disciples in Shangwu Hall who were proficient in medical skills had already examined Zhu Yan's body, but they had not found any trauma or illness, and everything was normal from the inside out. Qi Jian knew that now he could only silently pray to the heavens, hoping that he could hang down his gift and let his lover wake up as soon as possible.
Ye Yichen, Xuantian, and Qing Ling led dozens of Shangwutang disciples through a day and a night of trekking, and finally came to the front of this black tower.
At this moment, the hour had passed, and I saw Ice Tears standing alone in front of the tower, waiting for their arrival, without any retinue by his side.
Even though she suffered a serious internal injury seven days ago and the possibility of recovery is not high, her unconditional confidence is still evident, and there seems to be no problem that she cannot face alone.
Ye Yichen's eyes also vaguely revealed a hint of appreciation, as if he admired her courage.
Seeing that dozens of people led by Ye Yichen were approaching here, Bing Tear immediately stepped forward to greet him, and greeted him loudly: "You can be regarded as arriving, and you have been waiting here for a long time." ”
Ye Yichen hurriedly responded, with a little apology in his voice: "Shangwutang is quite far away from here, although we have been in a hurry, but in the end we were late, I hope you will forgive me." ”
Bing Tear said that it didn't matter, but his eyes turned to the two people behind Ye Yichen, and after a light glance, he found that these two were the woman in white and the young man in green clothes that he had seen on the battlefield seven days ago.
Huda had said that the woman who had beaten him was wearing a black dress, and was obviously not the same person as the woman in white. Seven days ago, I used my spiritual power to test the depth of this woman in white's skills, and found that although her strength was not bad, it was not enough to pose a threat to me. And now it seems that among the three, she may even be the strongest. Since they weren't going to use the woman in the black dress to complete the challenge, they were going to use her to attack me directly, which was really an unguardable means. It's just that they don't know that I still have a lot of hidden helpers, even if I really can't defeat the woman in the black dress at that time, I can easily escape. But the three people in the tower will not be so lucky, with the ability of the three of them, they are here
There is no hope of survival in the tower. I actually admire this famous man who is Ye Yichen very much, although it is a pity to die like this, but this is his own choice, and I can't stop him. ”
Such a long thought process only took a moment in reality. A hypocritical smile appeared on the corner of Bing Tear's mouth, and he asked pretendedly, "I don't know which three of them are going to enter the Mechanism Tower to challenge?"
Ye Yichen then introduced Bing Tears: "This woman in a white gauze robe is famous as Qingling, this man in a cyan robe is famous as Xuantian, plus myself, are the three people who participated in this challenge." ”
Bing Tear bowed slightly, and said: "Sure enough, they are all talents, presumably they are all equipped with unique skills." ”
Ye Yichen perfunctorily said polite words with ice tears, and asked, "Thank you for the compliment." I wonder if everything is ready in the tower, and when can we start the challenge?"
"It's ready, you can enter the tower at any time and take on the challenge. ”
Ye Yichen said in a reminding tone at this time: "I hope Your Excellency can keep the oath you made at the beginning." There was a bit of "people doing it, and the sky was watching." Warning.
Bing Tear hurriedly responded: "That's nature, I don't dare to break my oath." I didn't bring any retinue with me today, and I came to the appointment alone to show my sincerity. ”
Ye Yichen nodded and said, "Now I can only choose to trust you, we will enter the tower now and start the challenge." ”
"Good luck to you!" Ice Tears kept that fake smile and said something against his will.
All this was naturally seen by Ye Yichen, but after all, the two sides are enemies rather than friends, and this kind of performance is also human nature.
Before setting off, Ye Yichen handed each of the Shangwu Hall disciples who accompanied him a messenger talisman, and if Ice Tears had any unusual behavior, they would immediately warn Ye Yichen. With these disciples firmly staring at Bing Tears outside the tower, Ye Yichen was not worried that Bing Tears would make any drastic moves.
Ye Yichen looked at Xuantian and Qingling standing behind him at this moment, and asked, "Are you ready?" ”
Xuantian and Qing Ling bowed their heads together, and Xuantian was even more excited at this time to transmit a message to Ye Yichen: "The knowledge that has been diligently acquired in the past seven days has finally come in handy. ”
So the three of them entered the tower through the entrance on the ground floor together, and officially began their journey to trap the tower.
Watching the figures of the three gradually disappear at the entrance, a trace of cruelty suddenly appeared on Bing Tear's face. I saw that she raised her right arm, and with a slight wave, there was an additional transparent barrier at the entrance that could not be seen by the naked eye, completely sealing the entrance of the trap tower, and no one could enter and exit the trap tower from this entrance from this entrance.
Ice Tears snickered in his heart: "I swore that I would not interfere with you, but I didn't say that I would not block your back road, and if you can't successfully break the traps I have set for you, you won't want to escape from the tower." It's a pity that with the three of you alone, it's completely impossible to break through all those magic circles and mechanisms, what a pity!hahaha..."
A few zhang away from where Ice Tears was located, dozens of Shangwutang disciples who had been paying attention to her every move saw her
She raised her right arm and waved, thinking she was going to do something unusual. But after a while, nothing happened.
Although these Shangwutang disciples didn't know how to cast spells, they didn't know anything about spells, and they didn't see any signs of casting spells when they waved their arms, and they couldn't feel the flow of spiritual power in the air.
All the disciples couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and most of them had the same idea in their hearts: "People were just moving their muscles and bones, I thought she was going to cast some kind of spell, it was really a false alarm." If Senior Brother Ye and the others were about to receive our summons as soon as they entered, it would be extremely annoying. ”
Bing Tear looked at the expressions of all the disciples, couldn't help but smile contemptuously, and raised his voice: "Everyone, if you are not mistaken, do you all have a magic weapon or charm that can be used to transmit information to the three people in the tower?"
When the disciples heard this, they were shocked and couldn't help but wonder, "We haven't shown the messenger, how did she know?
Ice Tears made a cross seal on his hands, and said in a cold voice: "I will also do the Spirit Sealing Array that Ye Yichen laid in the basin, and the effect will never be weaker than the one he laid down." From now on, all the talismans or magic weapons on your body are no longer of any use. ”
Ice Tears unfolded an invisible enchantment within a radius of ten zhang that all living beings or magic weapons were forbidden except for herself, which was not affected.
Before these poor Shangwutang disciples could react, the messenger talisman on their bodies had already failed, causing them to lose the means to get in touch with the three people in the tower in an instant, and they were completely isolated and helpless.
A slightly hideous smile appeared on the face of the ice tears, and he said to those frightened Shangwutang disciples: "Don't worry, don't be afraid, I won't kill you, I just need you to be quiet for a while." As long as you don't resist, you should have a good night's sleep, and I won't hurt you. ”
"Say what you want to do, don't play pantomime here. A slightly more courageous male disciple stood up and questioned Bing Tears.
"You swore to heaven before, and now you have broken your oath. How can we trust you with such inconsistencies?" another male disciple chimed in.
"Hahaha... Ever since I came to this island, I have had only one purpose, and that is to occupy this place, to become the master of this land. If I miss such an opportunity again, I would be a complete fool. Your Penglai's current strongest combat power has been trapped in the tower, and it will definitely not be able to get out for a while, and this moment is the perfect opportunity to capture the royal city in one fell swoop. As for the oath, it's pure nonsense, I said I wouldn't interfere with the three people who entered the tower to challenge, that's all, I will definitely keep this promise, but I haven't promised anything else. I advise you shrimp soldiers and crabs not to try to stop me, this is my territory, if you don't know what to do, there will be no one to collect your corpses for you. Bing replied with tears in his eyes.
"Qingling Woman's conjecture has come true, and Ice Tears now really wants to take advantage of the time they are in the trap tower to capture the royal city. With our strength, it is impossible to fight her, and now that the messenger has failed, what should we do?"
