All the elders and deacons were silent and exited the hall one after another.
Luo Qingxue suppressed her anger and hurriedly chased him out.
Under the eaves outside the main hall, she stopped the two elders and asked with disappointment on her face: "Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder, you are my father's biological brothers, and my father treats you well.
Why didn't you express your position just now? Don't you want to save my father?"
The fourth elder looked a little embarrassed and did not dare to look directly into Luo Qingxue's eyes. He smiled bitterly and said: "Qingxue, please don't embarrass us.
In the current situation, even if we agree to open the forbidden area, we can't change the outcome."
The fifth elder also looked dejected and sighed helplessly: "Girl Qingxue, we can't help ourselves and are powerless."
After saying that, the two shook their heads and left with desolate expressions.
Luo Qingxue looked at their backs and became more convinced in her inner suspicion.
Chu Tianchen followed her, stood beside her, and persuaded her: "The angrier you are, the calmer you must be. Only in this way can you have a chance to break the situation."
Luo Qingxue said with an angry tone: "Now it seems that the Great Elder is the most suspicious!
The attitude of the law enforcement elder is also very problematic, and he is most likely an accomplice of the great elder.
After all, they don’t want me to treat my father.”
Chu Tianchen nodded slightly and said, "The Great Elder is the most powerful person under Sect Leader Luo.
If something happens to Sect Master Luo, he will be the biggest beneficiary, so he is the most suspect.
However, this matter cannot be taken at face value.
Those who have different intentions... may not be the only two of them."
Luo Qingxue was startled for a moment, frowned and said, "Although, the other elders didn't express their opinions just now.
But they all watched me grow up, respected my father very much, and were quite close to us.
Maybe they don’t dare to take the lead because of the great elder’s power.”
Chu Tianchen showed a meaningful sneer, "My personal experience tells me that people's hearts are separated from each other and cannot be seen in person.
Don't challenge human nature under the temptation of power.
There are two things in this world that cannot be looked at directly, one is the scorching sun, and the other is the human heart."
"Understood." Luo Qingxue nodded and decided to follow his advice and be more vigilant towards those elders.
"Tianchen, what should we do next?"
Chu Tianchen said calmly: "Since the path of the Presbyterian Church is not feasible, what other choice do we have?
Let’s go to Luoshen Tower.”
"Let's challenge the Luoshen Tower and obtain the Luoshen Token?" Luo Qingxue was a little surprised.
Chu Tianchen nodded: "No matter how difficult it is, we still have to give it a try.
As long as there is a glimmer of hope, you can’t give up easily.”
Luo Qingxue was infected by his determination and confidence, and nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's go to Luoshen Tower!"
After a while, the two of them rushed to the foot of Luoshen Tower together.
This is a black pagoda with seven floors and a height of 100 feet, standing on the side of the mountain.
The pagoda has eight corners, brackets and cornices, carved beams and painted pillars, giving it a simple and mysterious atmosphere.
There are no guards under the pagoda. There is a bronze door on each floor, all of which are tightly closed.
Chu Tianchen looked up at the pagoda and could clearly feel the vicissitudes and majesty of this thousand-year-old pagoda.
Luo Qingxue took the initiative to introduce: "Luoshen Tower is the most sacred place in Luoshen Mountain.
Here are stored the martial arts inheritance and experiences of ancestors of past generations, as well as the most precious martial arts classics of the sect.
However, the ancestors of past generations will leave a true spirit to guard the pagoda before they pass away.
Disciples of this sect must pass the tests of their ancestors before they can learn the martial arts inheritance in the tower.
The guardian of the first floor of the pagoda is my great-grandfather.
Eighty years ago, he was the sect leader of our sect and a strong man at the pinnacle of the Supreme Realm.
The guardian of the second floor of the pagoda is my great-great-grandfather...
The guardian of the fourth floor of the pagoda is the seventh generation ancestor, who served as the supreme elder of the sect more than two hundred years ago.
The guardian of the fifth level is the sixth generation ancestor..."
Listening to Luo Qingxue's introduction, Chu Tianchen was a little confused: "All the guardians in Luo Shen Tower have passed away?"
"My great-grandfather who guarded the first floor and my great-great-grandfather who guarded the second floor are still alive.
The other ancestors have all passed away, leaving only a true spirit or a relic.
I have only challenged the second level, and I don’t know the situation on the following levels.”
Chu Tianchen nodded to express his understanding, and then asked: "The challenge can only start from the first level and pass the levels step by step?"
"That's not true." Luo Qingxue shook her head.
"You can choose which level to start from, but the difficulty and danger of each level's test are doubled.
If you choose a high-level person rashly, your life may be in danger!"
Chu Tianchen thought for a moment and his eyes fell on the bronze door on the fourth floor of the pagoda.
"In that case, let's be safe and start from the fourth floor first."
"Ah?" Luo Qingxue was a little stunned, and said with a stern expression: "More than twenty years ago, there was a genius disciple from the previous generation, who was originally a powerful prince.
But she insisted on breaking into the fourth level, failed to pass the test, and ended up in ashes.
Since then, except for a few elders, no one has dared to break into the fourth floor.
Tianchen, how about we start from scratch and you get used to it first and understand the situation in the tower?"
Chu Tianchen shook his head and said firmly: "To avoid long nights and endless dreams, we must get the Luo Shen Order as soon as possible.
Otherwise, those people headed by the great elder are likely to find other excuses to prevent us from treating your father.
Qingxue, I will go to the Luoshen Tower alone, you can just stay here."
"But..." Luo Qingxue was full of worry and wanted to persuade him to think about it again.
Chu Tianchen showed a confident smile and said in a calm tone: "Time is tight and we don't have time to discuss it in the long term.
You don't have to worry about me, I have my own sense of proportion.
While I'm breaking through the barrier, you can make preparations to save Sect Leader Luo first.
After all, people's hearts are unpredictable, and people like the Great Elder may create problems for us, and we need you to resolve them."
Seeing his firm attitude, Luo Qingxue had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Okay, then you must be careful.
I will be ready and waiting for you to retrieve the Luo Shen Order!"
Chu Tianchen said no more, flew into the sky, and landed outside the bronze gate on the fourth floor of the pagoda.
He waved his hand and shot out two rays of light, pushing open the heavy ancient door.
"Whoosh!"
With a flash of inspiration, his figure was swallowed up by the gate and entered the pagoda.
"Tianchen, you must not make any mistakes!"
Luo Qingxue prayed silently, turned around and left the Luoshen Tower.
…
After leaving Luoshen Palace, the Great Elder hurried back to his residence, Blackwater Palace.
Returning to the Blackwater Palace, he entered the secret practice room with a gloomy expression.
In the corner of the secret room, he cast a spell to open a secret passage and entered the underground through the secret passage.
After a while, he entered an extremely hidden secret room deep underground.
The spacious secret room was very dark, with many gems inlaid on the walls, shining with a faint purple light.
The air was oppressive, the temperature was extremely low, and it was freezing to the bone.
There is a large throne deep in the secret room, which looks crystal clear, as if carved from white jade.
After careful observation, you will find that the throne is actually made of white bones, and its appearance is somewhat ferocious and terrifying.
The throne faces away from the door of the secret room, and a tall bloody figure sits on it.
The figure was leaning on the throne, seeming to be concentrating with his eyes closed.
He wore a large blood robe and a purple and gold mask. His appearance and age could not be discerned, nor did he reveal any skin.
The great elder walked to the secret room and stood there, bowing to the man in blood-robed clothes on the throne with a very respectful attitude.
"Your Majesty, Luo Qingxue obtained the Holy Medicine of Nine Suns and returned to Luoshen Mountain with Chu Tianchen.
Chu Tianchen passed the Shenglong Bridge test and successfully awakened nine ice dragons..."
The man in blood robe remained motionless and remained silent for a moment before letting out a low, hoarse voice.
"Are those people from the Medicine Clan all drunkards? They actually let Luo Qingxue get the Holy Medicine of Nine Suns?
And Chu Qingcang, that loser, couldn't even deal with a young boy, yet he still allowed him to live until now!
Awakening the nine ice dragons... the supreme figure is indeed the son of Chu Changkong!"
The blood-robed man's tone was cold, revealing disappointment and anger.
The great elder stood with his hands hanging down, his heart burning with anxiety, and he said in a worried tone: "For Luo Daoxuan, the Nine Yang Holy Medicine is the only antidote.
If Luo Qingxue cures him with Nine Yang Holy Medicine, I'm afraid he will be the first to kill me after he wakes up and recovers.
Your Majesty, what should I do now?"
"Why are you panicking?" The blood-robed man's tone was still cold, and he said slowly: "Even if Luo Qingxue gets the Holy Medicine of Nine Suns, she will not be able to enter the forbidden area.
Without seeing Luo Daoxuan, there was nothing she could do.
You don't have to worry, everything goes as planned.
If things change, we can choose an opportunity to get rid of Luo Qingxue and take away the Holy Medicine of Nine Suns."
"I understand." The great elder felt relieved, bowed, and silently exited the secret room.
Immediately, the secret room returned to silence and darkness.
The man in blood robe suddenly let out a sneer of "Jie Jie Jie", infiltrating people like a night owl.
"Chu Changkong! You bastard who can kill a thousand swords!
It's all because of you that I have become what I am today, neither a human nor a ghost!
Although I can't help you, I still want to play with the Chu family.
I want your son to betray all his relatives, destroy everything he owns, and let him go to destruction step by step and die in despair!
Only in this way can we avenge the past and vent the hatred in my heart!"
The blood-robed man's voice was cold and his tone was very bitter, filled with overwhelming hatred.
…
At the same time, the fourth floor of Luoshen Tower.
There is another universe inside the tower, a vast black void.
There are a few stars in the depths of the void, shining with silver light and shining brightly.
Chu Tianchen held the God-killing Sword and stood in the void with an expressionless face, alertly guarding his surroundings.
Just now he used his True Spiritual Eyes and could tell that this place was not the real void.
It is a dark space constructed with powerful formations.
Suddenly, a star from the depths of the void came at an incredible speed.
"Whoosh!"
In the blink of an eye, stars flew thousands of feet away in front of Chu Tianchen.
With a flash of silver light, the stars turned into a tall figure.
This illusory figure is as solid as substance and very lifelike.
He is a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance and a majestic look. He wears a cloud-patterned robe, his hair is tied up in a high bun with a jade hairpin, and he wears a gold crown with a dragon pattern.
