Chapter Seventy-Three: Ten Years and One Night
Peach Blossom Boy and Ye Chen went their separate ways, while Qiu Zhishui walked with Yunya all the way.
The two of them are quite comfortable visiting the customs of southern Xinjiang. During this period, many rumors about the sacred mountain spread, and the two of them naturally heard some of them, and they were also curious, not knowing what kind of secrets were hidden in the sacred mountain.
"The major Xiuzhen Great Sects gathered in Southern Xinjiang, and they all came for that sacred mountain. At this occasion, I think Master and his old man will also come here. We might as well ask around. How?" On the ancient road, in a tea pavilion, the white-clothed and white-haired Yunya sat on the stone bench like a nine-day fairy, with a beautiful appearance and fair skin. He glanced at Qiu Zhishui and asked.
Qiu Zhishui squatted on the stone steps, a little too free. Hearing Yun Ya's words, he turned his head and said curiously, "Isn't Master in retreat?
Yun Ya chuckled, "Master has a weird temper. The retreat has never lasted more than a month, and I'm afraid it's already out of the retreat now. ”。
Qiu Zhishui smiled helplessly, "Everything is arranged by my senior sister." ”。
Southern Xinjiang is rainy, the temperature is humid, the most suitable for the growth of vegetation, since ancient times known as the 'jungle continent'. Even human inhabited cities are not exempt, with dense jungles, large rivers, mountains, lakes, and woods, which occupy most of the city.
Ziwei City is one of the few ancient cities in southern Xinjiang, covering an extremely wide area, with millions of residents in the city. There are more than a dozen historical relics in the city, and the oldest ones are hundreds of thousands of years old. The city is full of a sense of the vicissitudes of time. Mysterious, ancient, is the main tone of this city.
Qiu Zhishui and Cloud Cliff walked on the quaint streets of Ziwei City, and they wandered aimlessly, wandering around the scenery in the city. This is one of the closest cities to the Divine Mountain, along with Blue Moon City, and there are several times more cultivators coming and going than before.
There are many ancient ruins in Ziwei City, most of which are somewhat related to the powerful figures in ancient times. There are also many cultivators who come here all year round, just to admire the demeanor of powerful people in ancient times.
This is a forest city, and most of the mansions and courtyards are built in the middle of the mountains, and there are many mountain peaks and trees in the distance from the street, but there are few houses.
Therefore, when Qiu Zhishui and Yunya turned around a street corner and suddenly saw the skyscraper, both of them were surprised.
The skyscraper, one of the ancient ruins, the tallest building in Ziwei City, with a total of 9,999 floors, pierced into the sky like a large peak. No one knows where the skyscraper came from or who built it. The most terrifying thing is that every ten years, in the middle of the night, you can see the phantom of someone fighting on the skyscraper, which has remained unchanged since ancient times. It's very mysterious.
Rumor has it that it was a projection of the power of the ancients. There is even a legend that it is a special inheritance.
Ten years and one night.
At this juncture, many cultivators will come here, wanting to see the illusory battle in order to achieve a breakthrough in enlightenment.
Right now, it's the ten-year period, and because of the Divine Mountain, there are more cultivators in Ziwei City than before. There are a lot of disciples of the two realms of righteousness and demons here, and as for the big people, their identities are not good to show up, but they are much more reserved, just hiding in the dark and secretly observing, after all, the projection is from the ancient period when the cultivation civilization was at its peak. They also want to get a glimpse of one or two chances.
Qiu Zhishui and Cloud Cliff walked in the flow of people, and they didn't need to deliberately inquire, and all kinds of legends about skyscrapers naturally fell into their ears.
At nightfall, it rained again. The rain was not heavy, and it was pouring down, drenching the entire city.
Qiu Zhishui and Cloud Cliff found an inn, opened the window, and just happened to see the skyscraper in the distance. Outside, however, there were still a few people standing in the rain, looking at the black tall building almost reverently, as if they were looking forward to something.
In the past few days, business in the inn has naturally been booming, and there are not a few cultivators who have come in and out, all of them have come to observe the phantom of the heavenly tower for ten years and one night. Many of them are leaders of the younger generation.
For some reason, the inn that should have been lively was exceptionally quiet tonight. Only the sound of rain and wind outside the inn came, and everyone was silent, looking at the skyscrapers outside.
In the second half of the night, the rain became heavier, the wind became a little more wild, and an unconcealable oppressive atmosphere spread across the whole sky.
A terrible wind blew suddenly, and the rain became heavier. The wind helps the rain, and the rain borrows the power of the wind, as if the heavens and the earth are weeping.
"Coming soon!".
I don't know who said these three words, and everyone started to get nervous.
There was a loud "boom", breaking the raging wind and rain. White lightning pierced the night with teeth and claws, cutting through the sky.
The rain is getting heavier, and the wind is more intense.
Near the skyscraper, there seemed to be ten thousand demons roaring and a hundred ghosts roaring in unison.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning struck the world, and it hit the roof of the skyscraper directly, blowing up the mysterious area.
"Why hasn't it been there yet?" said a voice of surprise from the crowd.
This sentence immediately caused the people in the inn to explode. The crowd was talking, and I didn't know why.
Suddenly, someone screamed, and everyone looked up to the heavens.
"Corpses. A corpse fell from the sky. ”。
"Corpses flying from the sky!".
"Grandma's, there was a corpse rushing down from the starry sky. Lao Tzu is really eye-opening. ”。
Many people shouted in surprise, they were all cultivators, their eyes were naturally good, and they clearly saw a lifeless body flying from the sky.
