[Chapter 219] Breaking into the Pride Tower 2
[Chapter 219] Breaking into the Pride Tower 2
Afterwards, the two of them walked around the second floor of the Tianjiao Tower. After finding nothing else, they entered the teleportation array to the third floor.
A white light flashed, and the two of them changed places.
The third floor was empty at first glance, just like the second floor, but there were two palm-sized boxes floating in the air in front of the two people.
"Is this the reward for passing the Qi Refining Stage?" Ye Yisheng asked.
"It should be."
Nangong Chenyu had been holding Ye Yishen's wrist. He naturally knew about the previous conversation between Ye Yishen and Zhai Zhuang.
After making sure there was nothing wrong with the box, the two reached out to take it. The two were still looking forward to the reward that Zhai Zhuang had mentioned before.
But when the two of them opened the box, their expectations turned into bubbles and shattered with a "pop".
In both boxes lay half of an unknown monster skin.
Ye Yishen first attached a layer of spiritual energy to his hands, and then took the monster skin in the box. Turning it over and taking a closer look, you can see several clearly visible mountain lines.
"Could this monster skin be a treasure map?"
Nangong Chenyu leaned over to take a look: "It looks more like a treasure map fragment."
Ye Yisheng placed the monster skin in his hand next to the box in Nangong Chenyu's hand and compared them: "The monster skin in my hand and the monster skin in your box seem to come from the same monster."
"It could be a fragment of the same treasure map."
As Nangong Chenyu spoke, he reached out and took out the monster skin from the box. When I turned it over, I saw that there were indeed similar mountain routes on it.
The two tried to piece the monster skins in their hands together. Not to mention, one of the two monster skins actually fit together perfectly.
Unfortunately, the two monster skins are not complete when put together, and there are no obvious markings on them, so it is impossible to tell where the map on the monster skin is.
Nangong Chenyu put the monster skin back into the box and handed the box to Ye Yisheng: "Put it away first."
"good."
Ye Yisheng put both boxes into his space ring and couldn't help muttering, "Compared to a map that I don't know what it's used for, I actually want to get a tangible reward."
You have to know that other cultivators who came to break into the Tianjiao Tower either got elixirs to improve their cultivation, magic weapons to save their lives, defensive spiritual weapons, or natural treasures.
Even if the two monster skins he and Nangong Chenyu obtained were treasure maps, the benefits that cannot be seen are nothing!
Nangong Chenyu raised his head and looked up: "Maybe there is nothing good in Tianjiao Tower, so the spirit of Tianjiao Tower gave us two incomplete maps as a reward."
After saying that, he and Ye Yishen looked at each other inconspicuously.
Then Ye Yisheng also raised his head and looked up, agreeing: "You are right, the Tianjiao Tower has been here for who knows how many years, the treasures must have been gone long ago."
The spirit of the Tianjiao Tower who had been keeping an eye on the two of them: ...There are plenty of treasures in the Tianjiao Tower!
"No wonder the Tianjiao Tower suppressed my cultivation so harshly. I guess the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower is afraid that I will pass the level too quickly and won't be able to reward me." Nangong Chenyu's face was filled with sudden enlightenment.
The spirit of Tianjiao Tower: ...Don’t you have any idea of your own combat power?
Ye Yisheng thought thoughtfully: "Perhaps the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower will double the difficulty of the next test for us because it can't give us any rewards."
The Tianjiao Tower Spirit, who was secretly planning to double the difficulty of the test: ...
Nangong Chenyu continued, "There's nothing good to gain from passing the test. If the test is too difficult, it's fine if we're teleported out."
"How about we deliberately fail the test and wait to be teleported out?" Ye Yisheng suggested.
The spirit of Tianjiao Tower: ...These two idiots actually want to give up on trying to break into Tianjiao Tower! It seems that the difficulty of the test cannot be increased.
Nangong Chenyu pondered and said, "Since we are here now, we might as well give it our all!"
"All right."
In order to be able to respond to emergencies as soon as possible, Ye Yishen took out the spirit sword he had used before from his space ring.
Just like on the second floor, the two of them stepped out of the teleportation array at the same time.
Suddenly, their eyes blurred and the scene they saw changed abruptly.
This time, the two were pulled into two different illusions.
Nangong Chenyu appeared in a desert. He looked around and all he saw was yellow sand.
Not seeing Ye Yishen, Nangong Chenyu didn't feel much worried, but rather a little expectant.
The original intention of the Tianjiao Tower was to select geniuses, and it has its own set of procedures.
The lives of the monks who enter the Tianjiao Tower will not be in danger. If they fail to pass the test, they will be directly teleported out of the Tianjiao Tower.
After passing the first test, Nangong Chenyu guessed that the cultivators who were teleported to the same floor at the same time would most likely be pulled into the same illusion.
But now he and Ye Yisheng were separated. It should be the work of the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower. This shows that his and Ye Yisheng’s every move is likely to be seen by the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower.
As for the basis, it was that his cultivation was suppressed even more severely and was only at the initial stage of foundation building.
Whether it is really as he guessed or not, he will know after he and Ye Yisheng pass the foundation-building test.
After observing the place for a while and not seeing any living creature, Nangong Chenyu sent out the Golden Rainbow Sword, stepped on it, chose a direction and flew forward with the sword.
It is unknown how large the area of this desert is. After flying for an hour, Nangong Chenyu still saw yellow sand all over the sky.
Seeing this, he simply landed on the ground.
The breeze blew his hair, he held the Golden Rainbow Sword in his hand, and muttered to himself: "There are no demon cultivators, and no demon beasts. Could it be that the test of the foundation-building period is to let me walk out of this desert?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw dark clouds approaching from afar in the sky.
It turned out to be a group of two-headed magic eagles.
They flew straight toward him with a clear goal.
When the two-headed demon eagle approached, Nangong Chenyu counted them. There are probably more than thirty of them, all at the peak of level two, which is equivalent to the peak of foundation building for human cultivators.
To kill the two-headed demon eagle, you need to chop off both of its heads.
Nangong Chenyu was ready to fight, but the more than thirty two-headed magic eagles only circled above his head and did not attack him.
Since the two-headed demon eagle was flying too high, it was difficult to attack it while standing on the ground. Nangong Chenyu had no intention of launching an attack, but he didn't expect it to suddenly start raining.
Uh, it's bird shit rain to be precise.
The scene looks spectacular.
Nangong Chenyu's face was filled with black lines. He suspected that the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower was deliberately playing a prank on him.
This move is not very harmful, but it is extremely insulting!
Nangong Chenyu immediately planned to transform into his original form to meet the two-headed demon eagle, but he tried twice and failed to transform back into a blue dragon.
If he had doubts before, now he was sure that it was the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower that was playing a prank on him.
Nangong Chenyu made up his mind that one day when his strength could crush the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower, he would not only beat it up, but also play a trick on it.
Thinking this in his mind, he acted without slowing down at all, and flew directly out of the range covered by the two-headed demon eagle on his sword.
The two-headed demonic eagle made an eagle cry, flapped its wings and chased after Nangong Chenyu.
With the Golden Rainbow Sword at his feet and no weapon in his hands, Nangong Chenyu had to fight more than thirty two-headed magic eagles in mid-air and could only use magic. Without any thought, he landed on the ground.
With his current cultivation level at the initial stage of foundation building, even if his spiritual energy is exhausted, he may not be able to defeat all the two-headed demon eagles.
In this place where enemies could appear at any time, he naturally had to kill all the two-headed demon eagles with the least effort.
At this time, one of the two-headed demon eagles swooped down, ready to grab Nangong Chenyu with its claws.
Nangong Chenyu found the right moment, raised his sword and slashed at the two-headed demon eagle.
The sword cut through the two heads of the two-headed demon eagle, and the two-headed demon eagle was divided into two equal parts.
In addition, several two-headed magic eagles swooped towards Nangong Chenyu from all directions.
Nangong Chenyu swung the Golden Rainbow Sword continuously. Sword light flashed, and invisible sword energy slashed the neck of the two-headed demon eagle.
Puff, puff…
The heads of the two-headed demon eagles were chopped off one by one.
The remaining two-headed demon eagles seemed to be unable to see the death of their companions, and they rushed towards Nangong Chenyu one after another.
Nangong Chenyu naturally killed one if one came, killed a pair if two came...
More than thirty two-headed magic eagles were quickly dealt with by him.
Before he could catch his breath, more two-headed demon eagles flew towards him.
In the quiet bamboo forest, a lush green scene caught Ye Yisheng's eyes. The green bamboo leaves swayed gently in the wind, accompanied by the melodious sound of the piano.
Ye Yishen was distracted for just a moment and then immediately came to his senses.
Looking in the direction where the sound of the piano came from, I saw a woman in a red veil playing the piano. Her slender fingers flew over the strings, and invisible waves of sound swept around.
"What amazing piano skills!" Ye Yisheng couldn't help but murmur.
This woman's piano skills are no less than his.
Suddenly, pieces of bamboo leaves fell off the bamboo and then stopped in mid-air. As the sounds of the piano changed, they seemed to turn into sharp flying knives.
At the same time, Ye Yisheng felt murderous aura coming from all directions. Combining what he saw before his eyes, he had no idea where the source of the murderous intent was.
He put the magic sword aside and took out the guqin.
As the melodious sound of the piano was heard, the bamboo leaves that were attacking him immediately slowed down.
Although Ye Yishen's guqin skills were not as good as the woman in red, his guqin made up for this shortcoming.
The two fought evenly.
The bamboo leaves could not withstand the destruction of the two people, and they broke into pieces and fell down.
The music played by the two became more and more intense, and every note seemed to be filled with endless killing power.
Suddenly, Ye Yishen, who was playing the piano, disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he was already behind the woman in red.
Before the music of the piano stopped, the woman's head had been cut into pieces.
His face beneath the veil was full of disbelief.
She died before she could show her true strength!
Ye Yisheng used space teleportation to return to his original position. Just as he was about to put away the guqin, the faint sound of the guqin rang out again...
It was two days later when he passed the second level.
The scene before him had changed, but he was still playing the piano.
Nangong Chenyu, who passed the test first, noticed that Ye Yi was in an illusion, so he came up to him and called out, "Ayi."
