Chapter 11 Ancient Tower, Mysterious Corpse
Chapter 11 Ancient Tower, mysterious dead corpse
"roar--"
Faced with the suffocating oppression, the war soul let out a low roar, and its body suddenly surged, regaining its height by a hundred feet. An invisible fighting spirit spread from its body instantly, and immediately resisted the terrifying pressure around it.
At this moment, the magical pressure above the ancient tower suddenly increased, and the familiar pressure appeared on the body of the war soul, like a cage of heaven and earth, wrapping the body of the war soul a hundred feet into it.
The fighting spirit is compressed, the aura is compressed, and the cultivation is also compressed.
"Hmph——" The war soul let out a cold snort and walked towards the ancient tower. Ten thousand years ago, he had been able to withstand the pressure emitted by the ancient tower at the base before he had reached his current cultivation level. The eighteen ancient towers in the depths of the ancient city increased exponentially every time he entered a layer. The last time he entered here, he was able to withstand the oppression emitted by the ninth ancient tower. Now the power of this first ancient tower is no problem.
It is this mysterious ancient tower that gives him great pressure every time, not only his body, but even his soul and cultivation. Every compression will give him wonderful insights in the depths of his soul, thereby rapidly improving his cultivation. As he goes deeper into the ancient city, the stronger the sense of oppression emitted by the ancient tower, and the more mysterious the perception it produces.
This is the opportunity that War Soul first wanted to let Xing Fei enter the depths of the ancient city to look for. After tens of thousands of years of experience, he had already felt that the pressure emitted by the ancient tower was not ordinary oppression, but something extremely mysterious in it, which could stimulate the potential in the heart while oppressing people's soul cultivation, thereby achieving deep insights.
But this time, the war soul was no longer satisfied with the pressure emitted by the ancient tower. In the past, he would never be within a hundred meters of the ancient tower when he entered the depths of the ancient city, because he had a premonition here that there seemed to be something in the ancient tower that made him palpitations. But this time, Xing Fei entered the ancient city and after the speculation of the two, he was already full of curiosity about the entire ancient city that made him reborn. This time, he wanted to get directly close to the ancient tower and see what was inside the ancient tower. Will it be like the buildings outside the ancient city, and there is a corpse with a strange expression lying inside...
A hundred meters away, now the battle soul, a hundred feet tall, can be reached in less than ten steps, but under the huge oppression emitted by the ancient tower, Zhao Boran's battle soul walked ten steps but was still halfway away from the ancient tower.
"Roar—" He let out a low growl again, and his feet stood firmly as if they were rooted. A feeling of being connected to the bloodline of the ancient city suddenly filled his body with strength, resolving countless pressures emitted from the ancient tower.
"The ancient tower is indeed mysterious. Today I want to see what is inside this ancient tower?" Zhan Hun looked firm, and he gritted his teeth and took a step suddenly. Suddenly, the aura of pressure emitted from the ancient tower changed suddenly, no longer full of mysterious enlightenment. A gloomy and terrifying feeling appeared in the pressure, as if the ancient tower exuded its aura was a dead place without any vitality...
The war soul was obviously paused, and the unfamiliar aura made him not only not afraid, but also aroused his shocking fighting spirit and took another step. Now he was even more curious about the things in the ancient tower. He had been curious about approaching the ancient tower before, but every time he approached too much, he felt this gloomy and terrifying aura, and then he quickly chose to retreat. But this time he had made a decision to see the scene in the ancient tower, and was there a dead body inside?
Finally, enduring the strong uneasiness and huge pressure in his heart, the war soul stood less than ten meters in front of the ancient tower.
The ancient tower is 1,000 meters tall and deeply penetrated into the dark sky. The tower gate, a hundred feet tall, is like a gloomy hole, and looks very shorter than the war soul of a hundred feet tall.
As soon as the war soul approached the ancient tower, he bent down without hesitation and looked inside through the tower gate...
…………………………………
Almost at the same time, Xing Fei also approached the nearest ancient tower. His face was very serious, because he could clearly feel the moment he entered the depths of the ancient city. As War Soul said before, the depths of the ancient city looked like a cemetery, and this feeling became even stronger when he approached the ancient tower.
The ancient tower, which was a thousand meters high in front of me, emitted a strong sense of death, as if it was a relic tower after death, and there was a gloomy feeling in this breath, which made Xing Fei feel cold.
However, Xing Fei's feeling of entering the depths of the ancient city was different from the war soul. He did not feel any pressure. Even when he approached the ancient tower, he never produced any pressure or resistance. Only the endless death and gloomy intentions made him dare not careless. Several light purple purple qi danced around his body like ribbons, wrapping Xing Fei in it, as if there were several Hongmeng divine laws.
Xing Fei, who was carrying the Hongmeng Shenze, quickly came to the first ancient tower, turned to the gate, and opened his spiritual consciousness, but was surprised to find that the spiritual consciousness could only be dispersed for a short distance in the depths of the ancient city, especially the ancient tower in front of him, which could not be explored at all.
"I wonder if there is a dead body in this ancient tower?" Xing Fei's thought was exactly the same as the war soul, and he looked into the tower gate.
The first ancient pagoda was not very wide, only a radius of more than ten meters. Xing Fei could see the scene inside clearly at a glance.
Without any furniture or items, there is only a stone platform in the middle of the tower. The eighteen-story ancient stone platform has an almost identical shape to the shape of the ancient tower.
And there was a person sitting upright on the first stone platform.
It was a middle-aged man with a calm expression, wearing a wide white dress, long black hair hanging down to his waist, sitting cross-legged, motionless, without any sound, it was a corpse.
"There is indeed a corpse in the ancient tower?" Xing Fei was shocked, and he did not expect that the scene in front of him was exactly the same as his guess.
But what disappointed him was that the body of the middle-aged man on the first stone platform did not have any expression, and his eyes were calm. He looked at the direction of the tower gate with a smile, as if he was looking at Xing Fei, but there was no vitality, confusion and emptiness.
"I wonder what the second floor of this ancient tower is, is it also a corpse?" Xing Fei was curious and walked into the ancient tower, walked around the black stone platform in the middle, and quickly walked up the second floor, but was very disappointed. The second floor of the ancient tower was empty, without any items, and there was not even an empty stone platform. Xing Fei was unwilling to go up again, until he reached the eighteenth floor of the ancient tower, he was as empty as the second floor.
Not long after, Xing Fei, who was spinning around his body, appeared again outside the gate of the first ancient tower. He could have confirmed that there was only one dead body on the first floor of the first ancient tower, and all the seventeen floors above were empty.
Xing Fei did not hesitate at all, and soon he came to the second ancient tower hundreds of meters away again.
Because of the experience of entering the first ancient tower, Xing Fei entered the ancient tower with almost no hesitation, but the scene he saw was no different from the first ancient tower. There was only one man's body in a wide white cloak in the second ancient tower, but this body was on the second floor of the ancient tower, and the place where he sat cross-legged was also the second floor of the eighteen-story stone platform.
After that, the five ancient pagodas were successively inspected. Xing Fei checked them one by one, and they all turned out to be the same. There was only one dead body in each ancient pagoda, all of which were the corpses of a man in white. The only difference was the number of layers of the ancient pagoda where the dead body was located, and the corresponding stone platform layer on which the cross-legged seats were also different.
"Is it the same among the eighteen ancient towers deep in the ancient city, and there is only one corpse in each ancient tower?" Xing Fei stood on the highest floor of the fifth ancient tower, looking at the dark ancient city outside. The tall ancient towers in the depths of the ancient city towered into the sky, and were not tall, like mountains pressing on his heart. But at this moment, the ancient towers deep in the ancient city seemed to be ancient demon curses in Xing Fei's heart, and more like tombs without vitality.
Because now he could conclude that if nothing unexpected happens in the ancient tower he has not entered, it will be the same as the ancient tower he has inspected before. Each ancient tower has a dead body in a man in white.
"Is there no secret in the depths of this ancient city except these eighteen ancient towers?" Xing Fei was puzzled. Based on everything he observed outside the ancient city, the scene in the depths of this ancient city was simply so simple that it was hard to believe, but Xing Fei believed in the truth of the matter in his heart.
Even the immortal war souls cannot easily enter the depths of this ancient city...
"The war soul cannot enter easily, why can I enter easily without feeling a trace of obstacle?" Xing Fei's heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly felt something was wrong.
According to the story of War Soul, the depth of this ancient city should be very dangerous, and it is very difficult to enter. It seems that the deeper you enter, the stronger the danger you feel. But why did he have already penetrated it and even passed through five ancient towers easily, but he never felt anything wrong. The only thing that surprised him was the location of the dead bodies in each layer of ancient tower.
Could it be that the people who enter the depths of the ancient city are different, and the situations they encounter are also different?
Xing Fei felt confused, but could not find the answer. He was already deep in the ancient city and could not go out to ask the reason for the war soul. In that way, it would be very likely that he would never be able to enter again. After all, War Soul once said that the depths of the ancient city would only be opened once every hundred years.
He wanted to go deep into the deepest part of the ancient city, but he looked for the answer in his heart.
With complicated guesses in his heart, Xing Fei walked quickly down the tower, and there were thirteen ancient towers behind him. He wanted to check one by one to determine whether what he was thinking was true.
However.
Just as Xing Fei passed the fifth ancient tower, his footsteps towards the stairs suddenly stopped. He turned around incredibly and looked at the 18th floor stone platform in the center of the room. His eyes first fell on the corpse of the man in white. Just like the corpse seen in the four ancient towers before, the man in white looked gentle, with a faint smile, giving people a gentle feeling. But for some reason, just when Xing Fei was about to walk down the stairs, he glanced back alertly in the smile of the man's dead body...
Xing Fei walked closer to the corpse again and carefully looked at the corpse's face. The corpse's smile was very gentle, as if he was very calm when he was dying, without any shock, as if he had already known that he was about to die.
How is this possible?
Even if a person has a great cultivation level, he has already predicted the period of life and death. Even if he sees through life and death, he should have a fluctuation in his heart when he truly faces life and death. It is impossible to face it with such a calm and smile?
Maybe he had already seen through the disillusionment of life and death between heaven and earth, and was no longer afraid of life and death, but it was absolutely impossible that he would not have a trace of mood swing.
unless……
Xing Fei's pupils suddenly opened wide and looked at the dead body in front of him incredibly. At this moment, the dead body of the man with a gentle smile suddenly changed in Xing Fei's mind. He was no longer gentle, and the smile on his face slowly dissipated, replaced by a vicious grin hidden in the deep...
