Pavilions with different styles stand on both sides of the street. Although they are different, they do not feel out of place and are full of harmony.
There are many shops, ranging from small shops selling some gadgets to big treasure houses selling various treasures.
Chen Zong was dazzled by the dazzling array of things to see, but in the end, Chen Zong's eyes crossed the countless pavilions and landed on the black figure standing in the distance.
Although the distance was quite far, Chen Zong could see clearly that the towering black figure was a tall tower.
The tower has eight corners and rises diagonally, as if it is about to fly into the sky on the wind.
The black tower stands tall in the earth, as if breaking through the sky, like a giant standing between heaven and earth, exuding monstrous power, making people feel as if they are standing tall at a glance and feeling insignificant.
"Climb the Sky Tower!" Chen Zong said secretly, feeling a little excited in his heart.
The purpose of this trip is to break into the Sky Tower, but when he was in Baizhan City, Chen Zong learned that climbing the Sky Tower is not something you can just try. There is only one chance every year. By then, everyone will
Anyone who wants to climb the Sky Tower will gather here.
"There's still half a month." Chen Zong said secretly.
In the past half month, Chen Zong planned to stay in Dengtian City. As for applying for the entry order, if he thought about it, he would not leave until he finished breaking through Dengtian Tower. Maybe he would not leave again by then.
Come back, at least for a short time.
When he first stayed in the Dragon Map Domain, Chen Zong also thought about leaving the Dragon Map Domain to experience in other domains, but he was never ready. Now that he left the Dragon Map Domain by chance, he kept going like this and kept sharpening himself.
At the same time, we are also looking for a way to treat the elder Yuan Lingzi.
"Find a place to stay first." Chen Zong said secretly, then he withdrew his eyes and looked around, looking for a restaurant and inn. Suddenly, Chen Zong's eyes paused, and his pupils were focused and stared straight ahead.
A cold, murderous gaze fell directly on Chen Zong's face from hundreds of meters away. If gazes could kill, Chen Zong was already riddled with holes.
"Xiahou Zhen." Chen Zong said softly. He was a little surprised to see Xiahou Zhen here, but he was not surprised. After all, Shengwu Palace is a high-level sect. It is easy to have a stronghold in Dengtian City, and Xiahou Zhen is a Shengwu Palace.
The core disciple of the palace is also a genius on the Little Heaven Climbing List. In addition, the Heaven Climbing Tower will be opened in half a month, so it is normal for him to appear here.
"Chen Zong." Seeing Chen Zong again, Xia Houzhen's inner murderous intent seemed to be awakened and ready to burst out. His whole body was filled with astonishing murderous intent, as cold as prison and as violent as thunder and fire.
Suddenly, everyone around Xia Houzhen retreated. Although it is strictly forbidden to take action without permission in Dengtian City, the consequences are very serious, but occasionally some people will go crazy and recklessly take action to cause damage. Even if they are killed afterwards, they will often be killed.
Some people were more unlucky and were affected, ranging from injuries to death.
When Xia Houzhen's body was filled with cold and murderous intent, guards wearing dark golden armor soon appeared, and their sharp eyes fell on Xia Houzhen with a warning.
Xia Houzhen also woke up in an instant. This is Climbing Heaven City. If he dares to take action, not to mention that he is a core disciple of Shengwu Palace, even the son of the master of Shengwu Palace will be punished.
At the same time, someone was staring at Xia Houzhen with great interest at the window of a nearby restaurant, and then at Chen Zong, with bright eyes and a hint of smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Chen Zong, you came here for the Climbing Tower, right? You have no chance, because soon, you will die on the stage of life and death." Xia Houzhen restrained his murderous intent, but the murderous intent in his eyes was still sharp and his tone was sinister.
After saying that, Xia Houzhen turned and left. He was worried that he might lose control and take action.
That day, when he wanted to kill Chen Zong in Baizhan City, who knew that Chen Zong was not weak in combat, it was difficult to kill him for a while. As a result, the masters of Baizhan City came to stop him and expelled him from Baizhan City, which made Xiahou Zhen feel that he had been harmed.
A huge insult.
At that time, he was about to send a message to Shengwu Palace to summon men to lurk outside and kill Chen Zong, but he received the news first, asking him to rush to Dengtian City as soon as possible.
As a last resort, Xia Houzhen had no choice but to put aside the matter with Chen Zong, rush to Dengtian City first, and then get rid of Chen Zong after the matter in Dengtian City was over.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zong also came to Dengtian City and got rid of this person in one fell swoop.
You can't take action without permission in Dengtian City, but that doesn't mean you can't take action. It's normal for warriors to have grudges and grudges, and they have to be resolved by others.
Therefore, a platform of life and death was set up in Dengtian City, specifically for warriors with grievances to settle their grievances on a matter of life and death.
However, if you want to go to the stage of life and death, you must first apply to the City Preparedness Department of Climbing Heaven City and pay the corresponding fees, and then the City Beginners Department will make arrangements.
"The stage of life and death?" A flash of light flashed in Chen Zong's eyes: "Forget it, I will kill you on the stage of life and death."
Xia Houzhen wanted to kill Chen Zong, and conversely, Chen Zong didn't want to kill Xia Houzhen.
"Go and check, who is the person who confronted Xia Houzhen just now?" The man sitting by the window in the restaurant spoke slowly and in a low voice.
"Yes, senior brother." The person standing behind him immediately bowed and left quickly.
After Xia Houzhen left, he went directly to the Chengbei Department to apply for a life-and-death battle, while Chen Zong found a restaurant to stay.
Inside the Shengwu Palace stronghold, there is a small hall.
"Senior brother, I have found out. The man's name is Chen Zong. He came from Baizhan City and won a hundred consecutive victories in Baizhan City not long ago."
"Oh, 100 consecutive wins, it's really good." The man sitting in the main seat smiled slightly. It was the man sitting by the window of the restaurant. He tapped his fingers lightly on the dark brown chair back, making a rhythmic sound:
"What grudge does he really have with Xiahou?"
"Not long ago, Xia Houzhen took Lin Ziqi to Baizhan City, and had a slight conflict with Chen Zong. Lin Ziqi wanted to destroy Chen Zong in the Baizhan Arena, but was instead destroyed by Chen Zong. Xia Houzhen directly took action.
He killed Chen Zong and was expelled from Baizhan City." The man explained with a smile, his expression a bit teasing.
"Oh, I was expelled from Baizhan City." The man on the throne was startled for a moment, then started laughing, and he couldn't stop laughing.
"Xiahou is such a face-loving person. He must be so angry that he was expelled from Baizhan City." The man couldn't stop laughing.
This person is also a core disciple of Shengwu Palace, but his relationship with Xia Houzhen is competitive and they are targeting each other.
In short, Shengwu Palace is a high-level sect with strong strength and profound foundation. However, the strong man of Tianxuan Realm has not appeared for a hundred years, and the three strong men of Earth Spirit Realm also take turns guarding the sect, and the other two
Zunze goes out to explore or practice in seclusion, but on weekdays, the strong men in the Earth Spirit Realm who guard the sect will not interfere in the sect's affairs.
Within such a large sect, they are not monolithic and there is always competition for power and gain.
The Shengwu Palace can be divided into three major factions, the sect leader's faction and the elders' faction. Xia Houzhen belongs to the second elder's faction, and this man belongs to the great elder's faction.
"Go and find out where Chen Zong is, bring my name and let him use it for me," the man said.
"Yes, senior brother." The young man below quickly responded.
…
There was a knock on the door, and Chen Zong was slightly surprised.
"who?"
"But Chen Zong, please open the door, I have something important to do." A strange voice sounded outside the door, but it was quite friendly.
Chen Zong waved his hand and opened the door. He saw a young man in white robe standing outside the door, looking over with a smile.
"I am Wang Yunyu, a core disciple of Shengwu Palace." The other party announced his family name. Chen Zong's expression changed slightly, but the other party smiled again and said: "Don't get me wrong, Xiahou and I are really not the same people."
"I'm here on behalf of my senior brother Xuan Ziye. Senior brother Xuan heard that you are extremely talented and powerful in battle. He admired you very much and invited you to participate in this grand event." Wang Yunyu said with a smile.
It sounds very elegant, but it has only one meaning, and that is to recruit Chen Zong and make Chen Zong sacrifice his life for Xuan Ziye.
"I'm used to freedom." Chen Zong refused.
"Your Excellency, please consider it. I'll take my leave first." After being rejected, Wang Yunyu's expression did not change at all, and he still said with a smile. After cupping his hands, he walked out of the door, paused at the end, and looked back at Chen.
Zong: "By the way, Your Excellency, Xia Houzhen has submitted an application for the life and death platform to the Chengbei Division. Someone from the Chengbei Division will notify you soon. If you are not sure at that time, you can ask Senior Brother Xuan for help."
After saying that, Wang Yunyu turned and left.
Chen Zong waved his hand and closed the door. He didn't take it to heart and continued to meditate.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door again.
"Who?" Being interrupted again, Chen Zong's tone was a bit displeased and a bit sharp, as if a sword was unsheathed.
"I am the guard of the City Preparatory Department." A dull voice sounded outside the door.
"Secretary of City Preparations." Chen Zong's eyes were focused, and he waved his hand to open the door. Standing outside the door was a tall figure wearing armor, with his head level with the top of the door.
He stepped forward and stooped slightly, stepping into the room.
"Are you Chen Zong? Are you from Baizhan City?" The tall man asked with a steady gaze.
"I am." Chen Zong generally knew the other party's intention.
"Xia Houzhen, the core disciple of Shengwu Palace, proposes a life-and-death battle to you. It will be scheduled for the life-and-death platform in the evening three days later. Do you accept it?"
, leave Dengtian City now, and you are not allowed to step into Dengtian City again for ten years, otherwise, you will be killed without mercy."
"I accept." Chen Zong didn't hesitate at all.
The application for the life and death platform requires a lot of fees, and there are also restrictions. If you accept it, it's okay. If you don't accept it, you will be punished. This punishment is to be expelled from the city and not allowed to set foot in it again for ten years.
This kind of punishment can be considered severe or light, it depends on the person.
However, Chen Zong's goal was to break into the Sky Tower, so naturally he was not willing to accept such a punishment. What's more, Xia Houzhen should be dealt with to avoid being constantly stared at.
"Very good, since you choose to accept it, you will arrive at the platform of life and death on time in three days. If you exceed the time limit, you will be expelled from the city and will not be allowed to step foot in it for the rest of your life." The guard of the city preparation department said in a solemn voice, turned around and stepped out of the door.
