The clouds in the sky seemed not far away, but when they actually flew up, Lu Xiaoyue realized that it was so high.
After flying for nearly half an hour, Lu Xiaoyue even had to stop and rest for a while, but she still couldn't touch the edge of the cloud.
Looking up, it still looks so close yet so far away.
"How about forget it?" Jianzhen said distressedly.
Lu Xiaoyue was indeed extremely tired, so she had to stop and rest for the second time. She was breathing heavily, as if she felt exhausted.
This was the first time that she had used all her spiritual energy.
This feeling made her very uncomfortable.
Faced with Jian Zhen's relationship, she smiled stubbornly and shook her head: "Wooden stick, I can still hold on for a while... let's fly again. If it doesn't work, give up!"
She wanted to hold on a little longer, but not desperately, but to give herself one last chance.
"Okay!" Jianzhen agreed very simply.
After resting for half an hour, Lu Xiaoyue began to fly alone.
This time, in order to reduce her burden, Jian Zhen did not follow her, but flew alone using the "Wind Control Technique".
Of course, even if Jian Zhen is still in her arms, it won't be a big burden, it's just an encouragement.
When two people fly upward together, it is a kind of companionship; if one is carrying the other, it is a burden.
In the last attempt, Lu Xiaoyue mustered up all her energy and stared at the clouds all the way, gritting her teeth and flying upward silently without saying a word.
Jian Zhen has been accompanying her silently, keeping his eyes on Lu Xiaoyue to prevent any accidents that may occur to her.
He didn't know how long it took, but he suddenly heard a scream from Lu Xiaoyue: "Wooden Stick, we're here!"
"Are we here?" Jian Zhen was overjoyed. He immediately raised his head and saw the clouds not far away.
It turned out that they had reached the same height as the clouds. As long as they raised their heads a little, they could see the different clouds.
However, Kenma looked at it several times and still did not see the legendary Cloud Tower.
"Why don't you see anything?" he asked with some confusion.
Lu Xiaoyue ignored her exhaustion at this time, pointed to the clouds in the distance, and shouted happily: "It's right there! It's such a big group over there!"
"Really?"
Jian Zhen looked in the direction of her finger, but saw that the sky was full of dark clouds, not as big as Lu Xiaoyue said.
Nothing!
Is it my problem and I just can't see it?
Jian Zhen couldn't help but think of this, and then asked Lu Xiaoyue: "Xiaoyue, what did you see?"
"Yes..." Lu Xiaoyue blinked, then her eyes widened, and she looked closely for a while before replying: "It seems to be a pagoda!"
"Pagoda? It fits the name Cloud Tower quite well." Jian Zhen smiled, and he suddenly figured it out.
It is indeed an illusion!
Lu Xiaoyue had eaten snake gall, and her eyes could see through all illusions and shadows, so she could clearly see the appearance of the Cloud Tower.
But it's a pity that Jian Zhen can't be seen, so he can only rely on Lu Xiaoyue's description to make up his mind.
After seeing clearly that it was a pagoda, Lu Xiaoyue described the appearance of the pagoda intermittently. After comparison, Jianzhen found that it was almost exactly the same as a traditional pagoda. Such a form was not common in the capital.
There is no pagoda in the capital!
Originally, there were only two major sword sects in the capital, Lingxu Sword Sect and Wuying Sword Sect, and only two tall buildings, the Sword Tower and the Shadow Tower. Other than that, everything else was insignificant.
But there is not a single pagoda in the entire capital.
Pagodas are special buildings in the far west. There are many pagodas in a small town in the west of Hanling Kingdom, but they have not spread to the capital.
In other words, the capital city did not allow the construction of such a pagoda.
However, no one expected that there would be two such pagodas in the sky above the capital city.
They are called Cloud Towers!
After looking at it for a long time, Lu Xiaoyue was finally satisfied after seeing the Cloud Tower clearly.
"Wood stick, let's go back."
"good!"
Jian Zhen nodded and was about to leave when he suddenly heard a rumbling sound above his head, like rolling thunder, coming unexpectedly.
His expression suddenly changed, and he said quickly: "Xiaoyue, go quickly! It's going to thunder!"
Thunder is a normal thing, but encountering thunder in mid-air is not a good thing.
Even if you are not a lightning rod, you will have a high probability of attracting thunder, and then you will be dead!
Lu Xiaoyue also panicked and quickly accelerated her fall.
At this moment, there was a "boom" and thunder exploded in my ears!
Dazzling lightning illuminated everything in front of him, and the entire sky turned pale.
Jian Zhen glanced in the direction of the Cloud Tower inadvertently and was stunned for an instant.
He saw the Tower of Clouds!
The lightning temporarily broke the illusion protecting the Cloud Tower, allowing him to see the true face of the Cloud Tower.
Moreover, he not only saw the Tower of Clouds, but also saw a black shadow tightly surrounding it.
"Xiaoyue, it's time to go!" Jian Zhen said immediately.
"What's the matter?" Lu Xiaoyue raised her head and blinked.
He thought for a while, then organized the conversation and said: "When you were observing the Tower of Clouds before, did you see a black thing wrapped around the tower?"
"Black things, wrapped around the tower?" Lu Xiaoyue frowned, recalled carefully, and then shook her head violently: "No! Absolutely not! When I looked at it before, there was nothing on the tower. It was clean. You
I even told you!"
After her reminder, Jianzhen also remembered Lu Xiaoyue's previous description. She said that there were many beautiful patterns on the Tower of Clouds, which looked a bit like beasts and birds.
If there was a dark shadow surrounding it, she would definitely not be able to see it clearly.
"I saw it..." Jianzhen took a deep breath and said: "When there was lightning just now, with the light of the lightning, I saw the Tower of Clouds! I also saw the black shadow wrapped around the tower!"
"Really?" Lu Xiaoyue opened her mouth, a little unbelievable.
Jian Zhen smiled bitterly: "I also hope it's fake! But I don't think my eyes will deceive me... My sixth sense also feels that there is something wrong with the Tower of Clouds, so we'd better watch it again!"
"Ah? Then we have to wait for the next thunderstorm?" Lu Xiaoyue shrank her head.
"That's right! Although it's dangerous for people to be in mid-air during thunder, in order to confirm that thing, we have to take another look!" Jian Zhen explained with a serious face.
"Okay!" Lu Xiaoyue agreed quickly without thinking too much.
The second lightning struck quickly, and before the two of them could react, the lightning completely lit up the entire sky.
The two of them quickly looked up and suddenly discovered that there was more than one black shadow on the Tower of Clouds!
The black shadow wrapping around the tower that Jian Zhen saw before has become two...
