Chapter 72 The dusty history
"Don't panic, everyone, this pagoda is the immortal weapon of our Shenxiao sect, the Demon Locking Pagoda."
"If you want to know more about the Demon Locking Tower, Pindao will explain it in the live broadcast room later."
As this voice came, everyone who was originally confused suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.
"Sure enough, I guessed right. This pagoda was really built by the Taoist Priest."
"This pagoda is called Locking Demons. Is it possible that the demons are really locked inside?"
"Isn't this nonsense? The person locked inside is not a demon, but could it be Bai Suzhen?"
"I estimate that this pagoda has always been there, but we couldn't see it before. This time the Taoist Master released the restrictions, so it appeared again."
"It makes sense, otherwise how could a tower be created out of thin air?"
"The people locked inside should be the big demons who once brought trouble to the people."
"Who knows, it's important to go back and watch the live broadcast."
···
While they were talking, the people on the scene divided into two waves, one heading down the mountain, and the other heading towards Niutoushan.
By the time everyone from the Taoist sect returned to Niutoushan again, more than half an hour had passed.
As soon as they reached the top of the peak, everyone saw Qin Tian's figure sitting on the boulder in front of the Taoist temple.
At this moment, he frowned and stared at the Demon Locking Tower on another peak.
Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly became so breathless that they didn't dare to breathe.
Until Qin Tian's voice sounded again.
"The ancestors of the Shenxiao Sect have passed down their ancestral teachings. Unless there is a disaster that destroys the world, the Demon Locking Tower will never appear."
"Now that the Demon Locking Tower suddenly appears, it seems that a catastrophe is really coming."
After hearing Qin Tian's words, the expressions of everyone who had been calm at first changed.
They really didn't expect that the Demon Locking Tower actually had such a meaning in it.
Before they could think further, Qin Tian, who was on top of the boulder, suddenly took out the live broadcast equipment from nowhere.
After focusing the camera on the Demon Locking Tower, his Douyin live broadcast room was simultaneously opened.
Seeing that everything was ready, an unpredictable expression appeared on his face again.
At the same time, the viewers who came to the live broadcast room after hearing the news were also shocked by the close-up view of the Demon Locking Tower.
"Is this what the Demon Locking Tower really looks like? It's too scary. How could there be such a magnificent building in the world?"
"Dear me, I'm afraid it's thousands of meters long. Starting from today, the title of the world's largest building will probably change hands."
"How was such a tall building built? Judging from its age, it must have a history of thousands of years."
"Are you sure this was built in ancient times? It is impossible to build such a tall tower in modern times, right?"
"Illusion must be illusion."
"The Human Taoist Master said that this is their master's sect's immortal weapon. Didn't you read the previous paragraph?"
"What kind of being can use those big swords in front of the tower?"
"And that dragon-shaped sculpture, could it be said that there really were real dragons in our Dragon Kingdom in ancient times?"
"All eleven of the twelve zodiac signs are real. There is no reason why the dragon is fake, so I think the real dragon must also exist. Of course, it all depends on what the Taoist priest says."
"I think the Taoist Master started broadcasting this time specifically for the Demon Locking Tower. It must be because the Demon Locking Tower is of great importance."
···
Just as the audience in the live broadcast room was speculating, Qin Tian's voice rang out.
"The Demon Locking Tower appears in this world, and catastrophe has become inevitable."
"Although the ancestors of our Shenxiao sect have strictly prohibited our disciples from revealing information about the Demon Locking Tower to the outside world."
"But since this matter concerns the whole world, Pindao is forced to make a decision that goes against his ancestors."
After hearing this, everyone present and the audience in the live broadcast room were moved for a moment.
"Three thousand years ago, demons were everywhere on the earth, causing harm to the people. Even if I, the founder of the Shenxiao Sect, spent my entire life, I could not eradicate all these demons."
"Thanks to the immortals from the upper world who kindly gave me the fairy weapon Demon Locking Tower, these demons were able to be subdued by the Patriarch, and the Patriarch was seated on the Niutou Mountain."
"But there are more than tens of millions of demons in the world, and those demons that have been subdued are just some of them."
"At this point, I, the disciple of Shenxiao Sect, will also make it my greatest wish in this life to collect all the demons in the world."
"After three thousand years, countless generations of heavenly masters took away most of the evil spirits in the world into the Demon Locking Tower at the cost of their own lives."
"During this period, the heavenly masters of the past generations used their own magic power to set up a barrier on the Niutou Mountain to prevent the Demon Locking Tower from being visible to others."
"To this day, the Demon Locking Tower senses that the catastrophe of heaven and earth is coming, so it automatically appears."
Having said this, Qin Tian also let out a long sigh.
After listening to his story, everyone fell silent for a while.
Although everyone had already made speculations before this, after hearing the truth, their hearts could not calm down for a long time.
The seemingly majestic Demon Locking Tower actually has such a tragic history.
It already stood on the land of China three thousand years ago.
During these three thousand years, the Shenxiao sect has silently guarded the entire human race with its own strength.
Everyone can almost imagine how much the Shenxiao sect's heavenly masters paid a heavy price in order to conquer those demons.
If it weren't for them, I'm afraid the Chinese race would have been exterminated thousands of years ago.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look at the giant demon-locking tower covered with runes and spells, and then at Qin Tian, who was sitting alone on the boulder.
"There is no record of any of this in our sect's classics. This is how the Shenxiao sect's spells can be passed down to this day."
"It seems that all the records in our sect are missing. Such important things are not left behind."
"Could it be said that the Shenxiao Sect is the authentic Taoist sect?"
"If this is really the case, the Shenxiao sect should be the leader in Taoism in the world."
"No wonder the Shenxiao Sect has always had a low reputation, and now there is only one Taoist priest left. It turns out to be because of this reason."
"I just said that in some legends, you can often hear rumors of demons harming people, but in the end these demons were subdued by people. Could it be that they are the ancestors of the Shenxiao Sect."
"This is the Taoist sect. I always pay silently, for fear that what I have done will be spread."
"With such a tall demon-locking tower, how many demons must be locked inside."
"If these monsters are released, I'm afraid the whole world will be destroyed."
"What are you thinking? Do you think that the seals on the tower are all vegetarian? Maybe the dragon on top is real. As long as there is any movement inside, the dragon will be resurrected immediately."
"Hey! There is no such thing as quiet time. It's just that some people are carrying a heavy load and moving forward."
"But then again, is there any inevitable connection between the appearance of the Demon Locking Tower and the great catastrophe of heaven and earth?"
