Immortal Girl received two pieces of news from the capital one after another, and immediately summoned all her disciples and began to prepare the giant flying boat.
Half a quarter of an hour later, everyone in the Mie Ling Sect boarded the flying boat and rushed to the capital as quickly as possible.
The importance of the Cloud Tower is self-evident. It not only protects the capital, but also protects the foundation of the Soul-Destroying Sect. If there is a problem with them, the capital will not be protected.
Therefore, the Mie Ling Sect attached great importance to this matter. After receiving the news, all the disciples of the sect were sent out.
The spirit-killing sect's flying boat is very fast, but after all, there is a distance of tens of thousands of miles. It will take at least several hours to reach the capital.
Along the way, the fairy girl's face was full of sorrow, and the anxious look on her face was ready to come out, and her whole person became extremely anxious.
When the other disciples saw her like this, they subconsciously avoided her, not daring to touch her.
Instead, he spent all his time following Fairy Gu, trying every possible means to ask about the Tower of Clouds.
In fact, few people inside the Mieling Sect knew about the Cloud Tower. After all, it was a very important matter, and only the Fairy Girl and a few highly respected elders knew about it.
After asking him many times, the fairy girl looked at him and finally told him.
The Soul-Destroying Sect takes it as its own mission to destroy all spiritual energy in the world.
The goal of all immortal cultivators is not to gain powerful power or become immortals, but to absorb as much spiritual energy as possible from the world.
This purpose may be a bit ridiculous, but it is the goal of everyone in the Soul-Destroying Sect.
They believe that the spiritual energy in this world is limited, and once it is absorbed and used by people, it will not be regenerated.
Therefore, the purpose of their cultivation is to absorb more spiritual energy and use more spiritual energy.
Of course, the senior leaders of the Soul-Destroying Sect also know that it is too difficult to achieve this goal just by relying on people to absorb it.
Therefore, some talented and clever ancestors came up with a very perfect way - to create a magic weapon to gather the spiritual energy in the world and then absorb it in large quantities.
So the ancestors of the Soul-Destroying Sect began to take action, and finally built the Cloud Tower.
The Cloud Tower does have the effect of gathering spiritual energy, but the spiritual energy gathered through the Cloud Tower is not suitable for immortal cultivators to absorb. The spiritual energy in it is too complex and manic. Once absorbed by the immortal cultivator, it will easily cause spiritual energy conflicts in the body.
, causing a situation of obsession.
However, after experiments with the Mie Ling Sect, it was found that this kind of spiritual energy is very suitable for ordinary people, especially those who have practiced kung fu.
Ordinary people have complicated personalities, and martial arts practitioners are even more violent and impulsive, so there is no need to worry about going crazy.
Therefore, the Tower of Clouds was placed in the capital of Hanling Kingdom, above the heads of Wuying Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect.
The effect of the Cloud Tower did not disappoint the ancestors of the Soul-Destroying Sect.
The spiritual energy they gathered was quickly absorbed by the disciples of the two major sects and transformed into their strength.
It didn't take long for the two sects to become famous and became the two rare sword sects in the capital.
Not only did it make the two major sword sects stronger, but what also surprised the ancestors of the Soul-Destroying Sect was that the Tower of Clouds drained all the spiritual energy from the capital, turning the entire capital into an empty space with thin spiritual energy.
This is simply the ideal place for the ancestors of the Soul-Destroying Sect.
They tried their best to eliminate spiritual energy at all costs, just to make the whole world look like Beijing.
The capital suddenly turned into an ideal place for the Soul-Destroying Sect by accident.
Therefore, the Mielingmen became the guardian of the capital without any surprise.
They declared to the outside world that they wanted to protect the capital, and even the Cloud Tower they originally built became a layout to protect the capital.
The experiment in the capital city was a great success, and when the ancestors of the Mieling Sect were preparing to build more Cloud Towers around the world, a senior executive responsible for researching the Cloud Towers suddenly died unexpectedly.
Not long after, the senior officials responsible for researching the Tower of Clouds died one after another. The causes of death were all accidents, but they caused great shock in the Soul-Destroying Sect.
At this point, the research on Cloud Tower has completely stalled.
No matter how hard the remaining participants try, they will never be able to build the third Cloud Tower.
Hundreds of years passed like this, and after all the ancestors of the Soul-Destroying Sect who participated in the research passed away, no one knew how to build the Cloud Tower anymore, and no one even had the ability to repair it.
Hearing this, Fei Jin couldn't help but smile bitterly and asked curiously: "Master, why didn't the seniors inherit the research on the Tower of Clouds?"
We were able to build two Cloud Towers back then. As long as we continue to research, we will be able to build them again one day. It will never be like today.
What happened in the meantime?
As soon as the question came up, the fairy girl also smiled bitterly, shook her head and said: "Don't dare! Those ancestors who studied the Cloud Tower at the beginning said that they died in accidents, but in fact they were all related to the Cloud Tower... They had been exposed to the Cloud Tower for a long time.
The tower often tried various functions on itself, so in the end, it was backlashed by the Tower of Clouds, and became obsessed with it, ending in death."
"But..." Fei Jin felt even more strange now. Since the purpose of the Soul-Destroying Sect is to eliminate spiritual energy, isn't it normal to make some sacrifices?
Why did only a few high-level officials die and others retreat?
"But sacrifice is a normal phenomenon, why are some people still afraid?" Fei Jin couldn't help but ask.
"Haha..." Fairy Girl suddenly sneered and asked: "If I asked you to do something and told you that you would die within a year after doing it, would you still do it?"
"Everyone cherishes their lives! No matter how great the goal of the Soul-Destroying Sect is, and no matter how firm the will of the people involved, there will be times when no one will persevere. After the ancestors who first participated in the study of the Cloud Tower died, the descendants would not dare to go there at all.
If you touch her, you will be afraid that you will follow in the same footsteps." The fairy's words were filled with indignation.
But what she said makes sense. Everyone is afraid of death, let alone a road that is sure to lead to death. Who would dare to follow it?
To eliminate spiritual energy in the world, there is more than one way to go.
The worst thing is, just go slower, at least no one will die...
After listening to the fairy aunt's words in silence, Fei Jin suddenly fell into silence.
He was also thinking, if he was the one who took over the research on Cloud Tower, would he be able to continue the research firmly?
Maybe, but he will die in a year... By now, I'm afraid he has become an unknown withered skeleton, buried in an unknown wilderness.
If he gave up, he might be able to live until now and enjoy the same happiness as the respected elders in his sect.
After such a comparison, Fei Jin suddenly understood the situation of no one to inherit the Cloud Tower technology.
"Even if it were me, I wouldn't take over!" He let out a long sigh.
The fairy girl suddenly laughed happily: "That's right! I also chose to refuse at the beginning!"
