Chapter 129 The origin of the demon lock tower, the night of the full moon
"The Demon Locking Tower has been around for three hundred years. Our Ding family has always been the guardian of the Demon Locking Tower. It developed and grew here, attracting batches of people who fled, and finally developed into Liusha Ancient Town.
"
Ding Baixue told the reason.
"The Demon Locking Tower has existed for three hundred years?"
Huo Yunjie raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised in his heart, "So, that high-level demon soldier-level demon beast has lived for more than three hundred years. It is considered an old demon and must be very strong."
Ding Baixue waved her hands quickly: "Fellow Taoist, you have misunderstood. The Demon Locking Tower is good for three hundred years, but the demon beasts imprisoned in it will perish within ten years, and this demon beast is already the twenty-fifth one now.
"
"Our Ding family has always been responsible for guarding the Demon Locking Tower. In the past, there were records of demon beasts breaking out of the seal, but they were all wiped out in the end."
"Therefore, people around are used to the existence of the Monster Lock Tower. Even if they hear that a monster is about to break the seal, they are not very worried, let alone escape."
Hearing this, Huo Yunjie finally understood.
The Emotional Locking Demon Tower is equivalent to a monster prison, and Ding Baixue's family is like a jailor.
So, who created the Demon Locking Tower?
Huo Yunjie was confused, so he asked the question casually.
Ding Baixue explained: "Our ancestors of the Ding family were inner disciples of the Kamikaze Sword Sect. Later they were assigned to take charge of the Demon Locking Tower here, and they gradually evolved into a subsidiary force of the Kamikaze Sword Sect."
"It turns out to be the famous Kamikaze Sword Sect!"
Huo Yunjie's eyes flashed slightly.
When he went out to practice swordsmanship this time, what he wanted most was to meet the talented swordsmen of the Kamikaze Sword Sect.
Now when he heard this name, Huo Yunjie suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of expectation.
"It's strange to say that the monsters in the Demon Locking Tower were all sent by the outer disciples of the Divine Wind Sword Sect. Why should they be locked up when they can be killed with one sword?" Ding Baixue muttered, unable to figure it out herself.
.
She only knew that this was a monster sent by people from the Kamikaze Sword Sect. Normally, after being suppressed for about ten years, the monster would die.
Then after a period of time, someone will send new monsters over, and they will continue to suppress them, and the cycle starts over and over again. It has been three hundred years now.
Of course, Ding Baixue knew that this was an order from the Kamikaze Sword Sect. She was just a practitioner at the seventh level of Qi Refining, so she could just follow the order.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the foot of the Demon Locking Tower.
Huo Yunjie looked around.
I saw that the Demon Locking Tower has five floors, with a total height of 30 meters. Within a radius of 100 meters, there is an open space. Five stone pillars 10 meters high are erected, and an iron cable is extended from each to the tower. It seems to be trapped.
Something terrible.
"Hey, is there a newcomer?"
"The eighth level of Qi refining looks pretty good!"
Three people jumped down from the top of the tower, two men and one woman. The women were at the seventh level of Qi refining, and the men were at the eighth level.
Huo Yunjie found that the woman and one of the men were closely next to each other. They were both wearing white clothes and facing gentle faces. They looked like a couple.
The last man was middle-aged, not tall, only about five feet tall, with a full beard and bulging muscles. He looked like a strong man.
"These two are the Zhou couple, who come from the Chengshuang Sect, a high-end sect, and the other is Daoyou Wang, who comes from the Juling Sect, a high-end sect."
"Three fellow Taoists, this is the new fellow Taoist Huo Yunjie, from the newly promoted high-level sect Piaomiao Sect."
Ding Baixue took the initiative to introduce both parties.
On the way to the Demon Locking Tower, she asked Huo Yunjie about his origins and learned that he was from the Baifu City area.
"It turns out that fellow Taoist disciples are also disciples of high-level sects. How disrespectful!" Mr. and Mrs. Zhou are kind-hearted people with smiles on their faces.
That fellow Daoist Wang nodded, rather coldly.
"It turned out to be a Chengshuang Sect. I heard that your sect was founded by a Juyuan Realm couple and only accepts pairs of disciples. If you are single, after entering the Chengshuang Sect, you can be assigned a Taoist disciple within half a month.
Couple." Huo Yunjie looked at Zhou and his wife with a look of surprise.
"What Fellow Daoist Huo said is true." Zhou and his wife smiled and looked at each other with a strong affection for each other. "Our husband and wife got together under the matchmaking of the two sect masters after we entered the double sect. In the blink of an eye,
, it’s been twenty years.”
Fellow Daoist Wang from Juling Sect just smiled and said nothing.
"It's still several hours before midnight, do you four need something to eat?" Ding Baixue asked with concern.
"I'm not hungry." Wang Daoyou shook his head, jumped onto a stone pillar, folded his arms, and stood quietly.
"We don't need it either." Zhou and his wife took out the Bigu Pill they had prepared and drank it. They were able to go without hunger for three days, and they all returned to the stone pillar to wait.
Huo Yunjie felt a little hungry, so he and Ding Baixue went to a nearby restaurant to have dinner, and then returned to the Demon Locking Tower. The five of them each occupied a stone pillar and quietly waited for the full moon night to come.
Swish swish!
As night fell, the wind became a bit strong.
People in Liusha Ancient Town were lying on their windows, looking at the Monster Locking Tower from a distance, wondering what kind of terrifying monsters were locked inside.
Ding Baixue looked at the sky.
A bright moon hung high in the sky, there were no clouds in the sky, and the wind howled, giving people a very dangerous feeling.
"Roar……"
A low voice came from the Demon Locking Tower, as if something terrible had awakened, and the five iron ropes were suddenly stretched straight.
The people standing on the five stone pillars immediately floated into the air.
Bang!
The iron rope was suddenly pulled by an even greater force, making a harsh "click-click" sound, as if it was overwhelmed and about to break.
"The night of the full moon is when this monster is at its strongest. If it cannot break the rope that traps the monster, we don't have to take action. But once the rope that traps the monster is broken, we have to take action no matter what."
Ding Baixue put her hands on her waist, holding a small pile of low-grade talisman paper.
Bang!
The monster beast kept tearing at the rope that trapped the monster, making a continuous harsh sound.
Huo Yunjie discovered that each of the trapped demon ropes actually radiated five kinds of light, including red, yellow, gold, blue, and green, corresponding to the five elements.
"Roar!"
The long roars continued to sound, spreading for more than ten miles around, and the people and animals in the entire Liusha Ancient Town felt frightened.
"This monster seems to be stronger than those trapped before. It seems that the trapped monster rope cannot stop it. Four fellow Taoists, please prepare to take action!" Ding Baixue looked solemn and squeezed the talisman paper in his hand tightly.
.
The next moment, the wind stopped!
The moon in the sky became more and more dazzling, illuminating the land almost like daytime, which was very rare.
"I suddenly have a feeling of danger!"
Fellow Daoist Wang swallowed hard and clenched his fists.
Click!
The five trapping ropes shattered without warning and turned into ashes.
The next moment, with a "bang", the top of the Monster Locking Tower was knocked open, revealing the monster's true form.
This is a three-meter-tall yellow-haired giant ape!
It exuded the aura of the peak of a high-level demon soldier, and was waving its strong arms to tear off the trapped demon ropes on its body. Then its aura increased again, reaching the level of a semi-transformed demon beast.
"This guy can almost be compared with the black-striped snake demon!" Huo Yunjie clenched the hilt of his sword, his brows seemed to be covered with frost.
"It's the Great Ape!" Zhou and his wife's expressions darkened.
"This monster is not a good one. It is thick-skinned and incredibly powerful. If I had known it, it wouldn't be here." Wang Daoyou has already decided to give up.
"Everyone, please be careful. If it doesn't work, please lead it out of Liusha Ancient Town to minimize the damage." Ding Baixue quickly begged.
Fellow Daoist Wang immediately sneered and said: "Why should I care about the life and death of a group of ordinary people? If the five of us are defeated, I will be the first to run away."
