Qu Yunwei's expression changed dramatically at this moment, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and she turned to look in the direction where the footsteps came from, which was also above the stairs.

"Kick ...... Step on...... Pedal ......"

With the rhythm of this footstep, their hearts also beat with this rhythm, as if as soon as the footsteps stopped, their heartbeat would also stop, and they could not be controlled by themselves at all.

Qiao Yuan saw that Qu Yunwei's face was pale, her delicate body trembled slightly, and she let out a low roar in her mouth, forcibly stabilized the vibration of her heart, and raised her hand to point at the rune treasure on his head.

Because of the contraction of Fu Baowei's pressure, Qiao Yuan and Qu Yunwei breathed a sigh of relief, but they could still hear the footsteps, they could feel the vibration of the steps under their feet, and the sense of life and death crisis in their hearts had not diminished much.

Time passed slowly, as the footsteps got closer and closer, the vibration of the stairs became louder and louder, although they had not yet seen what this was coming from above, but they didn't have to think about it to know that it must be an extremely terrifying existence.

Looking at the staircase that stretched into the darkness, there was silence all around, except for the footsteps and the rapid breathing of the two men.

In such a depressing environment, the two couldn't help but become more and more nervous, and this voice kept echoing in their hearts.

"Go back, go back ......"

For a moment, Qiao Yuan had almost raised his feet and was about to retreat back, but the moment he raised his feet, the unwillingness in his heart became stronger, he wanted to enter the fourth layer, he wanted to obtain the lower part of the Wind Finger, he didn't want to retreat.

Although Qu Yunwei's cultivation is higher than Qiao Yuan, she is still a sixteen-year-old girl after all, and she has not experienced too many dangers, but her performance at the moment is not as good as Qiao Yuan.

Qu Yunwei's delicate body trembled slightly, and she squatted directly on the stairs unsteadily, and at the same time, her face was extremely pale, and her beautiful eyes were full of a fear of the unknown.

And her face showed a look of struggle, and she looked at the stairs behind her from time to time, as if she was making a choice between moving forward and backward, but every time Qu Yunwei saw Qiao Yuan raise her feet and put them down again, her heart seemed to be infected by Qiao Yuan, and she was slowly filled with firmness.

"Hey, these two little dolls are quite determined, but that's not enough. ”

Seeing the scene where the two of them were struggling to persevere, the tiger beast showed a look of surprise in its eyes, and said slowly.

Qiao Yuan's eyes were red, full of determination and fearlessness, staring at the top of the stairs, he wanted to see who was walking down, and he would activate the magic power in the rune treasure.

In this Yuehe Sect Scripture Pavilion, Qiao Yuan still didn't believe that there was really a danger of life and death, otherwise it would be impossible for Duan Tiangu and Yan Chenzi not to remind them.

The truth is indeed as Qiao Yuan thought, there will be no danger of life and death, after all, as long as he retreats from this staircase, this sense of oppression will naturally disappear, besides, Duan Tiangu and Yan Chenzi did not expect that the two of them would be so bold as to break into the fourth layer.

It's not uncommon for this kind of cultivation to be hard enough, but no one has ever succeeded, and the hard break will also be punished by the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.

Qiao Yuan actually thought about giving up, after all, even if he got the lower part of the Evil Wind Finger now, he couldn't cultivate, and there was no need to rush at this time, but he thought about it, although he had gained something, Qu Yunwei hadn't found the exercises she needed yet.

Qiao Yuan attaches great importance to kindness, and he still sees the scene of Qu Yunwei doing his best to help him find the secret, and the upper part of this evil wind finger is found by Qu Yunwei, so even if he is not for himself, in order to repay Qu Yunwei's favor, he has to hold on.

Time passed slowly, Qiao Yuan withstood this huge pressure, not only did not retreat, but walked up three steps, while Qu Yunwei squatted on the steps, unable to move a single step or stand up.

After a cup of tea, the footsteps became louder and louder, Qiao Yuan could hear that the mysterious person should not be far away from him, at this moment he raised his head, staring at the end of the stairs with his eyes, and at the same time his right hand was raised, pointing at the rune treasure, and his left hand was pressed on the storage bag, ready for battle at any time.

"Kick ...... Step on...... Pedal ......"

The sound of three steps fell, Qiao Yuan's eyes flashed, and he saw a black shadow slowly emerging from the darkness at the end of the staircase, and this black shadow was a human figure at a closer look.

But this humanoid black shadow is not like ordinary people, he is extremely magnificent and burly, three times as tall as Qiao Yuan, and looks like a small mountain.

"This ......"

As the black shadow slowly walked down, the true face of the black shadow gradually appeared in Qiao Yuan's eyes, and when Qiao Yuan saw it clearly, the pupils of his eyes shrank suddenly, and he couldn't help but gasp, his eyes showed a look of horror, and he said in a trembling voice.

It was a skeleton in ancient armor, holding a big knife, staggering downward, with two green glows in its hollow eye sockets, these two glooms staring at Qiao Yuan, as if this skeleton could really see Qiao Yuan.

The battle armor on the skeleton is extremely ancient, Qiao Yuan has never seen it, and the battle armor is damaged, full of decaying breath, as if the wind can turn this battle armor into a cloud of ashes, from this damaged armor hole, Qiao Yuan can see the white bones inside, the cold is pressing.

Qu Yunwei looked up and saw this scene, and subconsciously let out a scream, but she quickly stopped it, but from her trembling body, it could be seen that Qu Yunwei was still extremely scared, after all, she was just a weak sixteen-year-old girl.

Qiao Yuan hurriedly took a few deep breaths, forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, turned his head, and motioned for Qu Yunwei to stand back.

He couldn't tell what kind of cultivation this skeleton was, but no matter what kind of cultivation it was, he had to use the power of the rune treasure to resist, and once he used the rune treasure to fight, Qiao Yuan would not be able to distinguish his mind from Qu Yunwei, so he let Qu Yunwei retreat down the stairs first.

Qu Yunwei's beautiful eyes were full of unwillingness and stubbornness, as the first day of the generation of January Peak, she had her own pride, how could she let a Qi refining cultivator stand in front of her and cover her retreat.

Therefore, she forcibly suppressed the fear in her heart, stood up, and not only did not retreat, but took three steps and stood directly beside Qiao Yuan.

"Why do you bother? I have a talisman to protect me, so I won't have a problem, and when the time comes, I will definitely not be able to take care of you. ”

Qiao Yuan showed a helpless look on his face and said with a wry smile.

After hearing this, Qu Yunwei felt a little warm in her heart, but her brows were furrowed, her cultivation was much higher than Qiao Yuan, but now she was dragging Qiao Yuan's hind legs, which was unacceptable to the pride in her heart.

So, Qu Yunwei didn't say a word, she directly slapped the storage bag and took out a water-blue flying sword, this flying sword was the magic weapon she used in the battle with Baili Zhen, holding the flying sword, she had already told Qiao Yuan with her actions that she would not retreat.

"Stand down, stand down, stand down!"

Qiao Yuan's face showed distress, and when he was about to continue to persuade, there were three low and hoarse words from the top of the stairs, and these three voices were more powerful than the other, and Qiao Yuan and Qu Yunwei's bodies trembled, and they unconsciously withdrew back three steps, and stood on the twentieth step together.

Qiao Yuan's eyes showed an unyielding look, and as soon as he stood firm, he raised his feet and walked upward, three steps fell, he stepped on the twenty-third step again, and Qu Yunwei did the same, and followed Qiao Yuan to the twenty-third step.

The skeleton's eyes flashed brightly, and a hoarse roar came out directly, as if Qiao Yuan and Qu Yunwei's actions made him feel that his dignity had been provoked, and he was extremely angry.

"Stand down, stand down, stand down!"

After the low roar, three more imposing cheers came out, but this time, Qiao Yuan did not hesitate, and directly pointed at the rune treasure, urging the magic spell in it.

In an instant, a blue light burst out of the yellow paper talisman, and it quickly condensed into a humanoid phantom in front of Qiao Yuan, this humanoid phantom was blurred, but Qiao Yuan recognized this phanthropus at a glance as the old man Zhan.

After the phantom of the old man appeared, he raised his hand and waved forward, and immediately a blue light curtain was propped up, blocking the three "retreats" that were full of momentum from the light curtain.

At the same time, the tiger beast at the entrance of the third staircase had a shocked look in its eyes, staring at the phantom of the old man Zhan, and muttered softly.

"No wonder this king feels so familiar, it turns out to be you, Zhanyuan!"

Zhan Yuan is the name of the old man Zhan, after the macaque beast finished speaking, its eyes showed a look of reminiscence, as if recalling the scene about the old man Zhan, after a long time, the macaque beast sighed lightly and said to himself.

"Well, since this little doll is the person you have chosen, then the king will help him once. ”

Back to Qiao Yuan, he breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw the phantom of Old Man Zhan appear, and at the same time he looked at Qu Yunwei and said with a slight smile.

"Don't worry, as long as this skeleton is not a Yuan Infant cultivator, it won't hurt us. ”

After Qiao Yuan finished speaking, the phantom of the old man Zhan immediately pinched out a strange seal with both hands, and then he clenched his fists with both hands, pulled it left and right, and immediately a long fishing rod appeared in the phantom's hand, without the slightest hesitation, the phantom of the old man Zhan directly threw the fishing rod towards the skeleton, as if he was fishing normally.

When the skeleton saw this, it was not moved at all, it did not make any action to stop it, but kept roaring, as if to warn it.

In an instant, the fishing line on the fishing rod was close to the skeleton's body, but the next breath made Qiao Yuan's face change greatly, and his eyes showed disbelief, because he saw that the fishing line passed through the skeleton's body, and it didn't hurt it at all, as if the skeleton was an illusory thing and had no entity.

Just when Qiao Yuan was shocked, a joking voice drifted into Qiao Yuan's mind leisurely, making his expression change again, and he hurriedly turned around and swept around.

"Hey...... , Little doll, this skeleton battle will be transformed by will, not a physical object at all, so all spells and magic weapons are ineffective against it, only with the will can it be defeated, but with your will to defeat it, it is tantamount to a fool's dream, it is better to retreat as soon as possible, so as not to hurt your mind and destroy your will to cultivate. ”
