The crisp footsteps gradually echoed clearly and sweetly across the entire platform, the black dome collapsed into nothingness, and a slender figure slowly stepped out.
Hiss!
Sounds of gasping echoed on the platform, and soon many of the power lords stared at this figure with wide-eyed expressions, as if they had seen a ghost.
"This...is this Zhuo Wen? He's not dead?"
"The power of the Resentful Ghost Talisman is extremely terrifying. Even a four-wheeled Emperor Realm warrior might die if he is trapped in it. But how did Zhuo Wen survive it, and he seems to be unscathed."
"..."
The uproar was like the crashing waves on the shore, resounding around the entire platform. Everyone began to wonder, how did Zhuo Wen survive three days in the Resentful Ghost Talisman?
Creak!
The slight smile on Xu Chang's face suddenly solidified, and he clenched his fists tightly, staring closely at Zhuo Wen. His face suddenly became extremely ugly, but his heart was as turbulent as the waves crashing on the shore.
"Why is this Zhuo Wen not dead? The Resentful Ghost Talisman can even entangle a fourth-wheel Emperor's Realm warrior. How come this little bastard who is only a second-wheel Emperor's Realm peak is not dead?" Xu Chang roared in his heart.
Compared to Xu Chang's gloomy expression, the other four giants were quite surprised. Among them, Lu Nantian's face was full of surprise. This Zhuo Wen is a fourth-grade arcanist. If he is recruited to the Qin Hou Mansion, it will be inevitable.
It can be of great benefit to the Qin Hou Mansion
"Zhuowen! You finally came out, are you okay?"
Two figures rushed straight from the crowd, it was Gu Yuetian and Qiu Chou. At this time, the two people looked at Zhuo Wen in front of them with worried eyes, and their eyes were still frightened.
Seeing the concern in their eyes, Zhuo Wen felt warm in his heart and said with a smile: "It's okay! Didn't I come out intact? But where is that old man Wuji?"
Having said this, Zhuo Wen's eyes darkened. He never wanted to experience the strange power of the Resentment Talisman again. If it weren't for the help of Xiao Hei and the golden torrent in the sea of consciousness, Zhuo Wen would have died this time.
He was buried there, so Zhuo Wen's hatred for the old man Wuji was extremely strong.
"Zhuo Wen! Don't worry, that old man Wuji has been cleaned up. Such unruly garbage will be punished by death. If you are still not relieved, I can help you destroy Chuba City as well.
Yes, how about it?"
A burst of laughter came, and Lu Nantian was seen striding up to Zhuo Wen, with a pair of sharp tiger eyes staring straight at Zhuo Wen, and couldn't help but admired: "You are really beyond my expectation.
Being able to survive three days under the curse of the resentful ghost is not something that ordinary people can do."
"Master Lu, thank you very much! Being able to come out of the resentful ghost talisman this time is actually a great luck. There is nothing to praise! But since the old man Wuji has been cleared away by Master Lu, Zhuo Wen still wants to express his gratitude to Master Lu.
?" Zhuo Wen smiled shyly and then said respectfully.
Zhuo Wen was a little surprised that Lv Nantian treated him so politely, especially for him to directly clean up a four-wheeled emperor like Old Man Wuji for him. It seemed that Lv Nantian still valued him.
Zhuo Wen knew that Lu Nantian was probably planning to recruit him, but with Zhuo Wen's temperament, he was unlikely to join any force. But now Zhuo Wen was not sure whether he wanted to join the five super forces. After all, Xu Chang was very interested in him.
Watching with eager eyes.
"It seems that we have to wait until the battle for the Yuanqi Tower is over to decide whether to join the force or not! Let's see what Xu Chang's old dog will do by then."
Now, Zhuo Wen's only worry is Baichuan Hou Xu Chang. This person is not the strongest person he can compete with at the moment. If Xu Chang really wants to deal with him, even joining other forces may not help.
However, Lu Nantian shook his head and said: "I didn't handle the old man Wuji, but Brother Xu Chang personally handled it. If you really want to thank him, then thank Brother Xu Chang."
Hearing this, Zhuo Wen couldn't help but be startled, and then he narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Chang, who had a gloomy face not far away, with a hint of thinking in his eyes.
In fact, it was a taboo for Old Man Wuji to openly attack a talented warrior in a place like Trial Mountain for no reason. Lu Nantian was a person who could distinguish between public and private matters. Once such taboo was violated, the offender would probably be punished by death.
.
After all, Old Man Wuji is also the city lord of the super city. He holds great power and is extremely powerful. Zhuo Wen knows that Old Man Wuji will not risk his own life just to kill him. This is simply not worth the loss for Old Man Wuji.
So now there is only one possibility, and that is to be held hostage by someone, and he is a strong man who is much stronger than the old man Wuji. Only then can he have the courage to make the old man Wuji surrender. Such a person is undoubtedly a giant of the five superpowers.
Thinking back to the grievances between Xu Chang and him, Zhuo Wen also understood in his heart that Old Man Wuji's desperate attack on him had nothing to do with Xu Chang, or that it was Xu Chang who assigned Old Man Wuji to attack and kill him.
"What a borrowed knife to kill. This old man Xu Chang is really ruthless, but this old guy wants to kill me so deliberately, so don't blame me for being rude? Since I can kill a son of yours, then I can kill him
Your other son."
Glancing coldly at Xu Chang who was not far away, Zhuo Wen also felt cruel in his heart. Since Xu Chang planned to quarrel with each other, Zhuo Wen would have no scruples. Sooner or later, he would settle the score with Xu Tianliang.
"Zhuo Wen! Since you are safe and sound now, you can also go up the Bailian Ladder. The trial on the third floor of the Yuanqi Tower has begun."
Lu Nantian saw that Zhuo Wen was a little distracted and quickly reminded him. At the same time, he began to repeat the words he just introduced to Zhong Lingshan and the rules of Zhong Lingshan.
Zhuo Wen also knew that the third-level trial was actually to climb Zhongling Mountain. Zhongling Mountain was extremely high and seemed to have no end. The pressure inside became higher and more terrifying. This trial was based on the number of steps everyone finally walked.
Ranking, only the top 100 are qualified to enter the fourth level.
Fortunately, this trial has no time limit, so even if Zhuo Wen spent three days on the second level, it didn't have much impact on him.
Lu Nantian also knows Zhuo Wen's strength. It should be easy to break into the top 100 from behind, and even the top ten is possible.
Raising his head slightly, Zhuo Wen immediately focused his gaze on the golden tower in the center of the platform. On the giant tower were rows of names, arranged from high to low.
First place, Lu Yitao, rank 1,500.
Second place, Falling Star, one thousand three hundred steps.
Third place, Zhu Chi, level one thousand and thirty.
Fourth place, Xu Tianliang, level 910.
Fifth place, Qin Batian, level 905.
Sixth place, Ling Wushuang, level 680.
…
The thousandth place, Zhuo Wen, level zero.
From top to bottom, when Zhuo Wen saw his name at the bottom of the tower, he was speechless. He didn't expect that he would have a record even if he didn't enter the third level at all. However, this zero level looks really dazzling!
"Zhuowen! Take your identity token. It represents your qualification to enter Zhongling Mountain. If you lose it, you will be directly disqualified. Of course, if you can't persist in Zhongling Mountain, you can only
You need to hold down the identity token, which will teleport you out of Zhongling Mountain." Lu Nantian said cautiously.
Seeing Lu Nantian explaining to him so carefully, Zhuo Wen felt a little moved in his heart. Although Lu Nantian had the purpose of recruiting him, Lu Nantian was still the strongest person in Muqin County, the strongest person who combined honor and strength.
The fact that he could be so dedicated to a junior like him made Zhuo Wen quite impressed with him.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Lu!" Zhuo Wen said respectfully, cupping his hands.
"Well! Then you can go directly to the third floor along the Bailian Ladder. With your strength, it is no problem to enter the top 100. And your identity token can also show the ranking. If you want to see your own
If you want to rank, you only need to use Yuanli to activate the identity token." Lu Nantian said with a bold smile.
Nodding, Zhuo Wen said hello to Qiu Qiu and Gu Yuetian again, stepped on the sole of his foot, and his whole body turned into a shadow, and flew directly along the Bailian Ladder towards the third floor.
The distance to the Bailian Ladder was not very far. In about an hour, Zhuo Wen arrived at the end of the Ladder and directly entered the entrance to the third floor of the Yuanqi Tower.
The place where Zhuo Wen was standing at this time was a wide and boundless square. In front of the square stood a huge mountain. Looking up, Zhuo Wen could only see half of the mountainside. As for the part above the mountainside,
Shrouded and spreading by a strange black mist, it was impossible to tell where the end of the mountain led to.
"Is this the Zhongling Mountain that Mr. Lu mentioned? I really didn't expect that such a mountain range could be an imperial treasure. It's really surprising!"
Lu Nantian knew everything about Zhuo Wen, and he also explained the origin of Zhong Lingshan in quite detail. He was afraid that Zhuo Wen would suffer a loss if he didn't know anything about it.
"It's such a familiar breath. I actually feel a familiar dragon breath here. There seems to be a real dragon in this mountain, a real dragon with pure blood."
Suddenly, a weak voice slowly sounded from his mind. Zhuo Wen's eyes lit up and he immediately replied: "Xiao Hei! Are you awake? You are finally awake!"
In fact, Zhuo Wen felt quite guilty about Xiao Hei's sleeping. After all, Xiao Hei did not hesitate to waste his original power to protect him in the resentful ghost spell for two days. Such a life-saving grace was extremely heavy.
"I can't die yet! I just woke up, but my original power has been consumed too much, and I am very weak now. If it weren't for the protection of the ice flame holy talisman and the wind and thunder holy talisman in your body, I would probably be dead too."
It's impossible to wake up so soon." Xiao Hei said weakly.
Hearing this, Zhuo Wen breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It seems that the holy talisman is really important to you! Don't worry, I will try my best to collect the complete holy talisman in the future to help you recover as soon as possible."
"It's really disgusting! It was originally agreed upon to collect the holy talismans. Otherwise, why would I have taken so much trouble to save you?" Although Xiao Hei's words were not pleasant, there was a hint of softness in his words.
