Chapter 103

…

The method to get out of the Black Tower is very simple. There will be a special mechanism in any lounge. Just open the mechanism and you can leave the Black Tower.

The village chief had already told Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang about this.

So the two of them easily opened the mechanism and left the black tower.

Cheng Hui's eyes went dark and bright, and he appeared in a small valley with beautiful mountains and clear water.

He looked around, feeling a bit puzzled. He remembered the village chief telling them that they would appear outside the Black Tower after leaving it, but...

Where is the Black Tower?

How could such a huge black tower be gone?

Wait... He turned around and saw Lin Qingyang right next to him. He breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they didn't separate. As long as the two of them were still together, there would be no big problem.

Now back to the previous question, where did this black tower go?

Or rather...where are they now?

"there."

As soon as Lin Qingyang came out, he found that the location was wrong. After observing, he found that at the end of the path not far away, he could vaguely see the roof of some building.

The two walked along the path and soon reached the end of it.

“I…will…”

Cheng Hui opened his mouth in surprise. He didn't expect that the end of the path was a cliff, and below the cliff was a huge deep pit.

The deep pit is circular in shape, with a large number of network-like cracks around it, which looks like the marks left by something hitting it.

What surprised Cheng Hui was not the deep pit, but the ancient hall in the center of the pit. The top of the hall was almost level with the cliff. The roof that Lin Qingyang had seen before obviously belonged to this hall.

The hall is located in the center of the deep pit. With it as the center, a network of cracks spreads outward. It feels like... this big pit was created by this hall.

But how is that possible?

Cheng Hui thought.

"Let's go down and take a look." Lin Qingyang suggested.

The ancient atmosphere emanating from the hall was so strong that it was as if "I have a treasure inside" was written on the door.

Cheng Hui didn't know why they appeared here, but he couldn't just avoid the opportunity when it came his way. That would be too useless.

So the two of them walked down the path along the edge of the cliff.

The further down he went, the more shocked Cheng Hui was. He hadn't noticed it from a distance before, but when he got closer, he found that this hall stood there quietly, like a hand lying in ambush. The feeling that it would pounce on someone at any time was very strong.

Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang's pace became slower and slower. It was not because they were afraid to walk, but because they had to fight against the wild aura with every step they took. If they made a mistake, they might get injured.

"It doesn't feel good." Cheng Hui looked at the hall not far away and couldn't help but say in a low voice.

Lin Qingyang didn't have time to answer. He had a strange feeling since just now. The hall had an inexplicable attraction to him.

"Don't talk yet."

He felt it carefully.

That’s right!

There is indeed something strange about that hall.

He could vaguely feel that there was something hidden in the hall, calling him.

Lin Qingyang pursed his lips and said, "Let's go and take a look. I think there should be something good in there."

Now that he was here, Cheng Hui had no intention of returning empty-handed. Although he felt it was a little dangerous here, he was not the kind of coward who would just run away when faced with danger.

The saying that fortune and honor are achieved through risk is not just talk.

The two approached the hall cautiously. The entire hall was generally intact, but Cheng Hui still noticed that there were many fine lines on the huge bluestones used as the foundation. When he got closer, he found that it was damage caused by impact.

If he guessed correctly, this deep pit might really have been created by this palace.

Cheng Hui couldn't help but smack his lips in amazement. To create such a huge hole, how much force must have been used to smash down the hall?

How strong must the hall be to be able to withstand such an impact?

The two climbed up the stairs and walked to the gate, suddenly discovering that the gate was actually ajar.

The two of them immediately became alert.

Could it be...that there are other people here too?

Cheng Hui thought about it and decided that it was really possible.

It was true that the two of them left the Black Tower early, but no one could guarantee that someone else would leave early as well.

If all the magic circles that had left the Black Tower early could send people here, then not only might there be someone ahead of them, but someone might have already appeared on the cliff where they left.

Cheng Hui thought about it and carefully released his spiritual consciousness. Unexpectedly, as soon as his spiritual consciousness left his body, he felt like he was hit hard. He felt drowsy as if he was drunk and was supported by Lin Qingyang.

"What's wrong?" Lin Qingyang was confused.

"No...it's okay..." Cheng Hui shook his head vigorously.

I felt a little dizzy just now, but it’s not serious, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.

He vaguely felt that this hall seemed to prohibit spiritual consciousness, so he honestly used his five senses to explore.

"There should be no one at the door." He felt it.

Now he is at least a foundation-building cultivator. According to the classification of zombies, he is now a bronze-armored corpse, and his five senses are very sharp. At this distance, unless the person ambushing him is twice as strong as him, it is impossible for him not to notice him.

If the opponent is really that strong, then it doesn’t matter whether we ambush him or not, because we can’t beat him anyway.

Lin Qingyang trusted Cheng Hui very much. Since Cheng Hui said it was no problem, he strode in.

Cheng Hui followed closely behind. After the two of them entered, they felt like they had entered a wonderful space. The surroundings were very dark, but there were many bright stars above, illuminating the nearby space.

The two stood side by side, and suddenly two steps appeared in front of them. The location of these two steps was very clever, exactly where they were about to step. If Lin Qingyang had not seen it, they would have stepped on it.

"Wow, what the hell!"

Cheng Hui was startled, and before he could react, the floor not far away suddenly began to break and fall. As the floor disappeared, a large area of ​​nothingness was revealed underneath.

Lin Qingyang and Cheng Hui were both shocked. Seeing the cracked floor spreading towards them, they had no choice but to step onto the step immediately.

Originally, they were both going to step onto the same step, which was the one in front of Cheng Hui, but Lin Qingyang was stopped by a force and could not step on it.

"Don't worry." Seeing Lin Qingyang's face change, Cheng Hui quickly said to comfort him: "Don't worry, there is no danger at the moment. It won't be a big problem even if we go separately."

Lin Qingyang gritted his teeth secretly. Why couldn't he just turn into a pendant and stay wrapped around Ah Hui?

On second thought, becoming a pendant means I won’t be able to do the things I love.

Lin Qingyang: ...Forget it then.

He stepped onto his own step, and then the floor behind them completely collapsed, and everything around them turned into nothingness, only the stars in the sky still emitting bright light.

After stepping onto the stairs, Cheng Hui suddenly saw a huge stone tablet placed in the corner of the stairs.

What’s strange is that the stone tablet is so big, but when he was underneath, he couldn’t see it at all.

When you get closer, you will see the three huge words "Xundao Stairs" written on the stone tablet, and the back of the stone tablet shows the function of this Xundao Stairs.

After seeing it, he understood that this hall was also the inheritance left by a certain elder, and the Dao-seeking Steps were also his way of selecting the successor.

This senior was a good friend of the owner of the ancient tomb, but he was a loner and was unwilling to put his inheritance into the black tower, so he created this independent space and waited for the right person to enter.

There are countless teleportation arrays distributed throughout the ancient tomb space, and more than 90% of them were arranged by this predecessor. Among these 90% of teleportation arrays, he only left no more than 20 coordinates. In other words, as long as it is within the range of the ancient tomb, any teleportation array may be able to teleport people here.

"Ah Hui, look over there."

Cheng Hui suddenly heard Lin Qingyang's voice. He looked in the direction of the voice and was surprised to find that there was a young man standing not far from them.

The man looked familiar. He recalled that he seemed to be a cultivator from the Liuguang Sword Sect, but he was not the two people he met in the black tower. He must have been teleported in from somewhere else.

In addition to him, Cheng Hui also noticed another woman in red in the distance. If he remembered correctly, the woman in red was standing in the Liuguang Sword Sect's team at that time, but the people from the Tianming Sect looked at her with resentment, and it was very likely that she had defected.

Ah! He remembered that the woman in red had been leaning against this man. Could it be... a beauty trap?

He couldn't help but look into the distance again and found that there were a few people around, but they were relatively far away. Without expanding his spiritual sense, he could only see a vague outline with his naked eyes.

"Wow, there are so many people here." Cheng Hui secretly clicked his tongue. He didn't know if the space here was unique, as he hadn't noticed there were other people here before.

Or maybe the space here is quite special and you can't see other people before you step onto the stairs.

Cheng Hui could see the others, and naturally the others saw him as well. In fact, because he and Lin Qingyang were the last to appear, they attracted everyone's attention.

Cheng Hui first observed vigilantly for a while and found that the distance between them was neither far nor close, so it was unlikely to attack. He tried to stretch his hand outside the stairs, but found that he couldn't reach out, so he felt relieved.

If he can't get out, no one else can get in.

I think, on this staircase, there is no need to worry about being ambushed.

He said something to Lin Qingyang and began to concentrate on studying the options on the ground.

On this path-seeking step, you can choose the aspect that you are best at and climb up.

Although this senior was aloof, he was also very generous. He declared that as long as one passed the test of the Dao-seeking stage, one would receive a reward after each small assessment.

There are many rewards, including but not limited to various skills, detailed explanations of formations, talisman-making secrets, and equipment-refining essentials, so you will never be disappointed.

Cheng Hui considered it carefully for a while, and finally decided to choose the formation. After all, he had just learned this thing not long ago, and it was the time when he remembered it deeply. Moreover, he felt that he had some talent in formation, at least much better than those spells.

As Cheng Hui stepped onto the second step with great confidence and began the assessment.

Lin Qingyang was caught in a dilemma.

He has all the secret manuals on martial arts. Although the things of the Blood Demon Sect cannot be easily exposed, he can still use them if he wants as long as no one sees them.

Looking at the description on the Dao-seeking Stage, you will know that whatever you choose, the reward you will get is likely to be related to that choice. In other words, if he chooses a technique, then the reward he will get will definitely be a technique.

However, he was not very interested in other things. After thinking about it, he found that only martial arts was the most suitable.

Lin Qingyang was about to reach out his hand when he suddenly noticed a very small word "Miscellaneous" on the ground. He clicked it and saw that in addition to the more popular miscellaneous skills, there were also more niche skills such as taming beasts and poison.

Lin Qingyang caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head sharply and looked at the words on the ground. His eyes suddenly lit up.

The art of sex!

He silently extended his hand...
