[Chapter 222] Breaking into the Pride Tower 5
[Chapter 222] Breaking into the Pride Tower 5
"Ignore them, collect the rewards given by the Tianjiao Tower first." Nangong Chenyu raised his chin and pointed at the two boxes floating in front of them.
This time, the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower did not give the two of them any more rewards, so their appearance did not attract the attention of anyone on the fifth floor. And all the monks who had come up from the fourth floor before were undergoing tests.
Ye Yisheng said "hmm" and immediately put the two boxes into the space ring.
As the two walked out of the teleportation array, a flower appeared before their eyes. Before the two of them could see the surrounding environment clearly, a sense of crisis surged in their hearts.
Nangong Chenyu used his divine steps without thinking and disappeared on the spot.
Ye Yishen subconsciously used spatial teleportation and also disappeared on the spot.
The next moment, an explosion sounded from where the two were originally standing.
The two looked back and saw a pit one meter wide and five or six meters deep appeared where they had just stood.
There are many pits like this around here, and the culprits behind all this are three cultivators and an iron-backed bear at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
The three men and the beast were fighting not far away.
Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen appeared suddenly, and the attack was obviously not directed at them intentionally.
After making sure they were temporarily safe, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen realized belatedly that when they left the place just now, someone else also left the place.
So, the two of them immediately looked at each other.
Well, it’s a stranger I don’t know.
After just a glance at each other, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yisheng looked away at the same time. But the next moment, they both turned their gaze back at the same time.
Then...the two of them had question marks on their faces.
Just because Nangong Chenyu now looks like a big man with a beard. Ye Yisheng now looks like a middle-aged man who is about forty years old.
The two men's appearance at this moment had nothing in common with their original appearance; their clothes, hair accessories, and boots were not their original ones, and even their aura was different.
At this moment, they seemed to have taken over someone else's body.
The reason they recognized each other was because of the swords in each other's hands.
"Ayu, why did you change your appearance?"
Ye Yisheng had no idea that his appearance had changed. After he said this, he realized that his voice was not his own.
Suddenly, he had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, the next moment he heard Nangong Chenyu say: "You have also changed your appearance."
The two of them each condensed a water mirror.
Seeing their current appearance in the mirror, they felt like a hundred thousand horses were galloping through their hearts.
It can be seen how great an impact the change in appearance has on both of them!
But before the two of them could worry about their current appearance, a slightly old voice came to their ears.
"Please help us fight this iron-backed grey bear."
Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen turned around and saw a wretched male cultivator with a three-goat beard clasping his fists towards them. The cultivators who can enter the Tianjiao Tower are all under fifty years old. Obviously, this man's current appearance is not his original appearance.
It seems that all the cultivators had their appearances changed by the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower during the Nascent Soul stage test.
And each one is uglier and older than the other.
This is definitely the evil taste of the spirit of Tianjiao Tower!
"I see that the three fellow Taoists are able to handle it with ease, so we will not interfere." Nangong Chenyu refused.
"My two Taoist friends, you may not know that the monsters here need to be killed three times before they can be truly killed. And each time you kill it, its strength will be twice as strong as before."
Although the male cultivator spoke sincerely, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yisheng did not believe him.
The two had just been pulled into this illusion, and without knowing the conditions for passing the test, they naturally would not rush forward to help.
"Since you three fellow Taoists don't have the confidence to kill the Iron-backed Gray Bear, then just run away!" Ye Yishen suggested sincerely.
Nangong Chenyu almost laughed out loud.
The male cultivator never expected that Ye Yisheng would tell them to run. You know, the monks who come to Tianjiao Tower are the best among the younger generation, and young people have a competitive heart.
Shouldn't the two people who just came in be curious and seek confirmation after hearing what he said?
He didn't understand why the two of them had such strange ideas?
Just as he was thinking about what to say to keep the two of them, he heard Ye Yisheng say again: "The two of us are weak, so we will leave first."
After Ye Yishen finished speaking, he immediately took Nangong Chenyu and used space teleportation to leave the place.
The male cultivator stretched out his hand, wanting to call the two men to stop. But in the blink of an eye, the two disappeared.
When the two men reappeared, they were already fifty miles away.
It was still in a forest, but compared to the previous place, the trees here were taller and the flowers and plants were more lush.
It was quiet all around.
Although the two did not find any monsters or humans around, they did not dare to relax at all. Who knows if something might suddenly appear and attack them.
"Should we choose a direction to go, or should I continue to perform space teleportation?"
"Let's go a little further."
Nangong Chenyu said this and walked in one direction based on his intuition.
Ye Yisheng followed immediately.
The further you go, the richer the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air becomes.
For some reason, Ye Yisheng had the illusion that they were not in a fantasy.
"Are we in a fantasy now?" He couldn't help but ask Nangong Chenyu.
Nangong Chenyu didn't answer immediately, but walked straight to a big tree. I saw a three-level fleabane under the tree emitting a faint white light.
He squatted down, stretched out his hand to pull up the flying grass, put it under his nose and sniffed it, then said: "This is not an illusion."
Ye Yisheng: “???”
Nangong Chenyu stood up and continued, "We should be in a secret place now."
“But before we came in here, weren’t the bodies of those monks who were undergoing trials on the fifth floor of the Tianjiao Tower?”
After Ye Yisheng finished speaking, Nangong Chenyu just turned around. Seeing Nangong Chenyu's current appearance, he couldn't help but slap his forehead.
"How could I forget that our current bodies are not our own."
Then, his eyes lit up: "So we can take the things in here out."
Nangong Chenyu didn’t think that the spirit of the Tianjiao Tower would be so generous as to allow them to take away the things in the secret realm.
"First check whether the space ring in your hand is yours, and then try to see if you can take the things out of the space ring."
Ye Yisheng's mind moved, and a low-grade spirit stone appeared in his hand.
Seeing this, Nangong Chenyu handed the Tianpeng grass in his hand to Ye Yisheng: "Try again to see if you can put this Tianpeng grass into the space ring."
Ye Yishen put away the spirit stone, took the Tianpeng grass, and planned to put it into his space ring. As a result, he tried twice, and the Tianpeng grass was still in his hand.
"Eh, it can't fit in."
Nangong Chenyu suggested: "Try to use the law of space."
Ye Yisheng immediately used the law of space, and this time he easily put the Tianpeng grass into the space ring.
The two of them looked at each other and immediately paid attention.
"Walk."
Nangong Chenyu said this and wanted to hold Ye Yishen’s hand. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he saw Ye Yishen's face. I immediately realized that they were not using their own bodies.
He could only withdraw his hand with regret and walk towards the place where he first sensed the treasure.
Ye Yishen looked at the hands of his current body. They were rough and had some wrinkles, which were completely different from his own hands.
He also minded having someone else's body and being controlled by Nangong Chenyu.
"Ayi."
“Here I come.”
The two walked one after the other into the depths of the woods.
When they saw high-level spiritual herbs along the way, they stopped to pick them.
An hour later.
The two of them walked through the woods and the view in front of them suddenly opened up.
Ye Yishen couldn't help but rub his eyes, and for a moment he wondered if he was dazzled.
Not only him, but also Nangong Chenyu was shocked.
It was only because there was a patch of blood spirit grass growing in the open space in front of the two people.
Blood Spirit Grass is the main ingredient for refining blood-replenishing pills. Generally, only three or four Blood Spirit Grasses will grow in the same place.
There is one here right now!
"So many blood spirit grass!"
"There should be a guardian monster here."
They only picked some common spiritual herbs along the way, so they didn't encounter any monsters along the way. There are so many blood spirit grasses here, there must be monsters guarding them.
The two released their spiritual sense and did not see any monsters around. Despite this, the two did not step forward immediately. Because some monsters can camouflage themselves and avoid detection by spiritual sense.
"Ayu, did you see the monster?"
Nangong Chenyu shook his head: "Not really."
Then, he stretched out his hand and sucked a fist-sized stone into his hand and threw it towards the blood grass in front.
The stone flew out in a parabola and was about to hit the blood grass, but instead it hit a layer of transparent barrier.
"There is actually a barrier." Ye Yisheng said in surprise.
When he released his spiritual sense to investigate just now, he could not find any trace of the barrier.
"Go and have a look."
Walking quickly to the barrier, Nangong Chenyu fired a spell attack at the barrier, and the barrier attack went straight through the barrier.
Seeing this, he raised his hand to touch the barrier.
As expected, his hand passed directly through the barrier.
"Living creatures can enter."
Nangong Chenyu came to the conclusion.
"Are we going in?" Ye Yisheng asked.
"Go in."
Nangong Chenyu said this and walked into the barrier.
Ye Yishen also raised his foot and walked towards the barrier, but he bumped directly into it.
Ye Yisheng: “…”
Didn’t they say that living things can enter?
Isn't he alive?
As soon as Nangong Chenyu entered the barrier, he felt the ground beneath his feet moving. The next moment, an iron-backed centipede covered with tentacles larger than a human rushed out of the ground and pounced towards him.
The back of the Ironback Centipede is as hard as iron and cannot be harmed by ordinary spells.
Nangong Chenyu raised the Golden Rainbow Sword and slashed at the Iron-backed Centipede that was rushing towards him.
"Dang!" The Iron-backed Centipede lowered its head slightly, and the sword energy hit its back, leaving only a shallow mark on it.
The Iron-backed Centipede paused for a moment and then continued to pounce on Nangong Chenyu.
Nangong Chenyu quickly dodged to the side. Without the obstacle, the Iron-backed Centipede rushed out of the barrier directly.
Seeing the iron-backed centipede rushing towards him ferociously, Ye Yishen raised his sword and slashed at it.
