The Secret Daily of Sword Spirit

Chapter 6 Town of Life Tower

Something has happened to Shushan recently.

Before talking about this major event, I have to talk about the world-famous Zhenming Pagoda in Shushan.This pagoda is as high as [-] ren, standing like a pillar of heaven in the distance, standing on the west side of Lingxiao Peak, the main peak of Shushan Mountain, reflecting the magnificent mountains, rivers and seas of clouds.However, although this tower is magnificent and magnificent, what is pressed inside makes people talk about it.

There are 81 monsters that harm the world, including Ao Yin, Gu Eagle, Roe Owl and so on.Each of them is a big villain who can cause a lot of disasters in the world.Shushan was ordered by heaven to wrap the Zhenming Pagoda layer by layer with the most powerful and complex Yuxu trapped dragon formation. In order to monitor the monsters in the tower, all the elders of Si Ming had to accept the fate and enter the Chang'an Grotto under the pagoda to retreat and meditate all year round.This cave is integrated with the Zhenming Tower, as long as there is a change in the tower, Elder Si Ming can feel it.Even if it is a disciple of the sect, it can only enter the tower unless it is jointly approved by the head teacher and the four elders.But to be honest, there are so many horrible things locked in the tower, which disciple would like to go in?Therefore, the Zhenming Tower has not been opened for 200 years.

However, such a heavily guarded place was forcibly broken into.

Leaving aside what method he used to deceive the Yuxu trapped dragon formation, anyway, the elder Siming Master Lang Ya, who had been retreating under the Zhenming Pagoda, suddenly broke through and summoned Shushan disciples to surround the Zhenming Pagoda, and then everyone found Zhenming The gate of the tower opened.

It is said that many disciples were scared to pee when they saw the open door. 81 ancient monsters, these little bastards were abused into scum in an instant?But there was no movement in the tower again, and no people or monsters came out after waiting for a long time.

Daoist Master Zhangjiao ordered our master and Daoist Langye to go to the pagoda to have a look.The master came to the Jiange to choose a sword. He thought he would happily choose the newly acquired Longyuan, but he didn't expect that he would grab me without even thinking about it.I couldn't help being intoxicated for a while.

The master sacrificed me, and I swelled the sword several times, making him stand on his body, and following his thoughts, he quickly flew towards the tower of life-suppressing.At this time, the eight sides of the giant pagoda were surrounded by disciples regardless of the ground and the void, and the colorful sword light shrouded the entire pagoda in rainbow light.At the moment when everyone was waiting in full battle, the Daoist with Kidney Deficiency used a bronze bell as a trumpet to shout: Listen up, little thief in the tower, you are already surrounded!You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court! "

My master and I rolled our eyes together, at what time is the kidney deficiency still messing around...

The master landed next to the real person in charge, and asked, "No movement yet?"

The real person in charge sighed, "It's a bit unusually quiet. I don't know what the purpose of the intruder is." At this moment, I saw a real person standing on the right side of the teacher with snow-white hair, but his face was not old. Maybe that's it?Although the appearance is ordinary, but there is a kind of unfathomable mysterious temperament in the body.Thinking about how this Excalibur has been in Shushan for so many years, the Four Great Elders, that is, Master Si Ming, has never seen Daoist Langya, so this must be it.

The master respectfully bowed to Master Langya, it seems that this elder's status in Shushan is second only to Master Master...

But what happened to the rare fluctuation in the master's mind?

The real person in charge said, "Langya, Jixuan, I would like to ask you two to come in and have a look inside."

The master followed Langya up the nine stone steps, and the granite tower door about ten feet high now opened a gap for one person to pass through, and it was dark behind, and nothing could be seen.

Daoist Langya suddenly said, "Recently, the evil energy in the pagoda has been turbulent, but these two days have been unexpectedly calm. I always feel that it is a sign of something to happen. This exploration may be quite risky, junior brother be careful."

The master was silent for a while, and then replied, "I haven't seen my brother for more than 50 years. Is everything safe in Chang'an Hall?"

It turns out that Master and Master Langya are old acquaintances?I didn't know... I always feel that the atmosphere between the two of them is a bit weird?Should it be the joy of reunion after a long absence?Why is it a little different...

At this time, the two had already entered the tower.The main hall on the first floor is very tall and wide, but it is empty inside, there are no windows on all sides, only densely packed spells all over the wall, forming circles and circles of dazzling patterns.After watching for a long time, I feel that the whole person will be sucked in by those characters.The only light source came from the huge night pearl above the head, and the light color of orchid floated in the shadows.

Master Langya replied, "It's only been more than 50 years. I was in samadhi, and I didn't know the time. I just felt that everything was still and eternal. I thought that when I opened my eyes, maybe 100 years had passed."

His voice is gentle and long, like a pot of fine wine that has been brewed for a hundred years.It's just that there seems to be a little loneliness in these words.A person spends 50 years of his time in a stone house, and I am afraid that he will spend the rest of his life in the future. I cannot understand this kind of sacrifice. If I were, I would have committed suicide...

There was nothing unusual on the first floor, not even monsters.Turning around a wall of murals, there are stairs spiraling upward along the body of the tower.There was originally a seal here, but it seems to have been destroyed.Judging from the sword marks left on the wall, the visitor is very familiar with Shushan's formation.However, the sword aura remaining on the sword marks is contaminated with a lot of death aura. It seems that he has killed many lives, at least thousands of lives can form such a strong evil aura.

I haven't met such an opponent for a long time. I was a little bit eager to try. I imagined the scene of cooperating with my master and fighting a certain ultimate villain for [-] rounds in my mind. The sword shook twice.The master lowered his head and scolded, "Crow Nine, don't get excited."

I shook twice more in protest.However, at this time, Master Langya suddenly said, "That's not right." The master was stunned, looked around, and instantly understood what Master Langya meant, "Why are the stairs still going up? According to our speed, we should have reached the second floor by now. "

Master Langya whispered, "There are 49 steps from the first floor to the second floor. Let's go down now and count how far we have walked to the first floor."

So the two of them counted silently in their hearts and walked back along the long steps of the arc.The aisle is narrow and can only accommodate two people side by side.Except for the torches that appear every three levels on the wall, there are endless stone bricks, no matter how long you walk, it looks the same all around.The air gradually solidified, and black shadows shrouded the top of my head. In this oppressive atmosphere, I couldn't help but feel that the previous excitement had diminished a lot.

The master and Langya stopped at the same time and looked at each other.Because they already counted to 49.But the ladder is still creeping, leading to the next unknown turn.

The master said, "Is this a formation?"

Master Langya shook his head, "If it's a formation, I should be able to sense it when I entered it just now."

"Maybe it's an enchantment?"

Langya closed his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something, "There is a monster named Qing Xingdeng imprisoned on the second floor of the Life-Suppressing Tower. He is good at disguising himself as a lamp, and he will get lost if he sees it. Then when the lamp goes out, He who is lost is led to hell. I think we have met him."

Although I still look like a sword, I couldn't help interjecting after hearing this, "Ah?! Could it be those torches on the wall?"

The master gave me a reproachful look, but Master Langya didn't seem to mind, "Yes, I suspect that one of these torches is fake."

"Master, why don't we chop off all these torches?"

The master said patiently, "Didn't you listen to the brother? If that lamp goes out, we will be dragged into hell."

I cut it off, "Listen to their bragging. How can there be such a monster who can drag people into hell after death? It's just that they are afraid that others will kill him and make it up."

The master talked on my sword hilt, "Can you please shut up?"

Master Langya smiled slightly, "Actually, what you sword spirit said is not unreasonable. If you say that Qing Xingdeng's ability is actually average, and he can live for so long, maybe this is one of the reasons?"

The master sighed, "Senior brother, don't listen to his nonsense. My Yajiu has no other abilities, but likes to complain. In my opinion, the legend may be true."

"Oh? How can you see it?"

"Qing Xingdeng confuses people with its lights. If you kill him rashly before leaving the illusion created by him, or if he leaves on his own, the people trapped in the illusion will never be able to get out. To live forever in a small and empty eternal space, what is hell?"

"Master, isn't this the immortality that everyone wants? I think it is very good to use it to cure diseases and save people. Think about it, those terminally ill people are thrown into the illusion of Qingxing Lantern. For a hundred years, wait until you find a suitable treatment method before releasing it. This is simply a panacea, which is much more effective than the Jiuding Yangyang pill for kidney deficiency." "How can you call me junior like that!" the master scolded, although He sometimes calls his junior brother like that...

Probably because our side talked too much and didn't take this Qingxing Deng seriously, this little monster—no, it should be considered a big monster—could lose face.I saw that the flame of the torch above the master's head suddenly exploded, and the flame turned into a strange turquoise.In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire stone corridor became strange, as if the steps under his feet were slowly elongating and twisting.

Daoist Langya made seals on his chest with both hands, and quickly recited the incantation in his mouth. In an instant, with the "broken" command in his mouth, the brilliance of his hands flourished, like a circle of ripples that quickly spread to the entire space.In an instant the stairs were gone, and so was the stone wall, leaving nothing but darkness all around.A ferocious grimace with protruding eyebrows appeared in the green flames, eyes full of anger and hatred stared at Daoist Langya.To be honest, I had never seen such resentment before. It must be the accumulated resentment from being imprisoned for hundreds of years, right?

The green lantern flickered twice, then disappeared.But the thick darkness around him didn't slow down a bit.Fortunately, I don't have enclosed space phobia like Danzhu, otherwise I would be scared to death in such a dark place.

The master said, "It seems that they want to trap us and delay the time?"

Master Langya frowned, "The intruders have conspired with all the monsters in the tower. What I am most worried about is that they will release that thing on the 81st floor."

"Floor 81? Could it be..."

What is it?What I hate the most is that half of the conversation between their seniors and brothers, don't know if there are other audiences present?

Daoist Langya suddenly closed his eyes, his whole body was full of energy, and his white hair flew away like snow.After a long while, he slowly opened his mouth, and there was a round and white pearl in his mouth.The master saw it, but was a little worried, "Brother, that's your Nascent Soul Pill, if you use it, your cultivation will be greatly damaged."

The people of Langya Town held the pearl in their hands, "Although the Qingxing Lantern has no combat power, its ability to create space illusions is first-class. We don't fall into his trap very much, and we may not be able to get out without some extraordinary measures. And , we don't have time right now."

As soon as the voice fell, the Nascent Soul Pill suddenly shone brightly, scorching like the scorching sun, and even the owner couldn't help covering his eyes with his sleeves.In this intense light that was almost like an explosion, the surrounding darkness was torn apart inch by inch, and the ground shook under his feet, as if two forces were fighting each other to cause the space to shatter.The darkness and the light were at a stalemate, but gradually, the light from the Yuanying Pill gradually overwhelmed the darkness, nibbling away the black inch by inch.

A mass of white-burned light engulfed everything, and the next moment, the brilliance of the sky was suddenly taken back into the Yuan Dan.I saw the water and light in the pill hovering densely, but Master Langya's complexion was pale, and there seemed to be cold sweat on his forehead.

He swallowed the Yuanying Pill again, but the master exuded a worried aura.

"Brother..."

"It's okay, I've practiced in closed doors for so many years, and I can afford this little consumption." At this time, we are no longer in the corridor.What appeared in front of him was a hall similar to the first floor, except that there were inch-deep claw marks on the walls filled with incantations.

Those claw marks in groups of four are densely intertwined on the wall, like a giant net.The despair and rage in that trace was heart-pounding.However, this floor is empty, only a few pools of bright red blood are left on the ground, but there is no trace of monsters.

"Are you going to visit another floor?" I asked.

Master Langya felt the atmosphere around him carefully, "This should be the third floor, and the roe owl is imprisoned. This thing has a human face and a sheep body, and likes to eat people. But its breath in the air is already very weak, and there is a faint smell of blood. There appears to have been a fight."

I thought to myself, could the intruder have been eaten by this monster?But what about monsters?

The master sacrificed my Yujian and rushed up to the fourth floor. Suddenly, I felt a gust of wind rushing from behind, and quickly led the master to dodge.In an instant, a huge black shadow rushed past him.Before he could stop his body, a black claw grabbed from behind.I felt that I couldn't dodge in time, so I quickly got out of the sword body, trying to block the sharp claws that were grabbing at the master.

However, the master's reaction was extremely quick, and a sword qi shot out while swaying the long sleeves.All he could hear was a shrill and sharp wailing sounding like metal rubbing behind him.I turned around and saw monsters on the fourth floor.

Is that...a shadow?

The black thing standing in the corner of the wall is about two feet high, long and thin, its hands and feet are like thin bamboo sticks, disproportionately long, but its claws are big and sharp.If you didn't look closely at the blood dripping from the paw, you might think it was someone's reflection on the wall.

The shadow is motionless, leaning against the corner of the wall, is it dead?

At this time, Master Langya said in a low voice, "Don't take your eyes off you. This is a shadow ghost. Once it finds that you haven't paid attention to it, it will attack you at a very fast speed and eat your shadow." Master Somewhat strange, "Eat shadows? Can shadows eat them too?"

Langya Daoist said, "There is a saying that there is one soul of you in the shadow, and after eating it, the descendants will be incomplete. Before the shadow ghost was subdued, there were cases of shadows being eaten by it everywhere. It ate other people. After the shadow of that person, he will disguise himself as the shadow of that person, and eat the other two souls when the victim is about to die. The victim is often terrified all day long, saying that his shadow is not right, and always seems to do something strange after turning around Distorted movements. In the end, these people all died of internal decay and exhaustion, and the cause of death is suspected to be related to shadow ghosts."

During the process of speaking, Daoist Langya kept his eyes on Shadow Ghost.The latter remained motionless.But since it can be hurt by the master's sword energy, it would be better to kill it while it is not moving.

The master probably thought as I did, and was about to step forward with his sword raised, but was held back by Daoist Langya. "Although it is not moving now, when it is threatened, its speed is extremely fast, and it may be difficult for the naked eye to catch it. It is too dangerous to approach it rashly with a shadow." After finishing speaking, Daoist Lang Ya suddenly waved his wide sleeves, and a gust of wind blew up from his sleeves. Instantly blew out all the candles on the fourth floor.We are plunged into a thick darkness.

It turns out that without shadows, shadow ghosts cannot eat shadows.But now you can't see anything, isn't it more dangerous?

Sure enough, I immediately heard the sound of wind whizzing in the air, suddenly far away and now near.I feel that although the master is holding my hand, although he is sweating a little, he is still calm.He slowed his breath and listened quietly to the breath in the air.

At the moment when a strange breeze blew to my ears, the master's sword light shot up all over his body, and he swung me out.I just felt something cold to the bone cut on my body, and the texture was like fat.The disgusting sticky touch made me feel goosebumps all over my body, and I almost spit out all the melon seeds in my stomach.

Immediately afterwards, the familiar sharp howling like metal friction came from the air.Then there was the sound of something falling to the ground.

At this time, Master Langya sacrificed the night pearl, in the light like water, the ground was empty, and the shadow ghost disappeared.

"You seriously injured it, so it escaped," said Master Langya.

"The Yuxu Formation outside the Life-Suppressing Tower is still there, and it can't escape from this tower." The owner frowned, "But with so many monsters, the intruder must not be able to go fast. We'd better catch up quickly."
