The Tower of the Gods is located in the northeast of the capital.
It was a lake of raw stone, surrounded by dozens of meters high trees. If it were not for the large group of officers, soldiers and monks guarding it, no one would have thought that the Tower of the Gods would be in such a place.
You can only see it when you get closer, a ten-story ancient tower standing by the lake.
If there were any writers passing by, thinking of how many talented monks this tower had devoured, they would probably compose a poem, otherwise it would be a waste of such a beautiful scenery.
But Jiang Bei... had no such intention at all. He was not a romantic man, and he had no fondness for the beautiful scenery.
On the ancient tower, there were unknown runes engraved, but no matter how you looked at it, there were only two words - cannibalism.
Even the officers and soldiers did not dare to get too close to the ancient tower, and the barracks were built dozens of feet away. Fortunately, there was a small lake here, so the view was pretty good.
They had only one goal, which was to be able to see the tower as soon as they looked up and make sure it didn't collapse.
After all, to enter the Tower of Communication, one needs a Communication Stone... not to mention...what good person would come to this place?
Are you depressed or something?
Go in and seek death?
Therefore, the officers and soldiers were still very relieved. Except for the mysterious atmosphere emanating from the ancient tower which gave people an extremely uncomfortable feeling, everything else was calm.
Some people say that this job is a wall, people outside want to come in, and people inside want to go out.
Although it seems comfortable, in fact, a lot of energy is spent every day to resist the erosion of this mysterious atmosphere. Every year, there are many lunatics among the officers and soldiers who suddenly go crazy and mutter incomprehensible words.
This is all because of the influence of the ancient pagoda.
However, this well-preserved tower from ancient times cannot be left alone. This is also the most troublesome problem for all Taoist dynasties in history.
Look, today another person who was looking for death came here, and it was said that he had spent a lot of effort to get the stone of divine power.
This person seems to be from Yunzhou, having come all the way here... Now the king’s third brother has been conferred the title of King Wen of Yunzhou!
When the officers and soldiers heard the news, they were even more confused... You are a good prince, how comfortable it would be for you to live in Yunzhou?
Why did he suddenly become so depressed that he came all the way to Zhongzhou to seek death?
Let me be frank. You should die with some value, right? You can choose any other way to die. Even if you were to use magic skills during the dual cultivation and be sucked clean by the witch, at least you still had a good time. Why do you have to come to this tower to die?
This has also been a great source of joy for the soldiers guarding the tower over the past two days.
Today is the day that King Wen comes to die... cough! He comes to the Tower of Divine Communication to seek a breakthrough!
After all, he is King Wen, and we cannot make fun of him in front of others. We still have to give him our blessings.
But everyone knew that once King Wen went in, there was no way he would come out alive!
The reason is simple. They heard that King Wen is not even at the Innate Realm!
In order to wait for King Wen, the officers and soldiers guarding the tower put on a big show and did not even gather by the lake to chat.
From a distance, I saw an old man and a young boy walking through the dense forest and appearing in my sight.
The officers and soldiers in charge of guarding the periphery immediately led their men to meet them.
As soon as I saw the way he was dressed, I knew he couldn't escape.
"Greetings to His Majesty Prince Wen!"
He knelt down directly.
In fact, officers and soldiers were very resistant to this understanding. Even when facing the king in the court, the etiquette of the senior military officers was not to kneel.
but……
Anyway, the prince in front of him will be dead soon, so if he kneels down in advance, maybe he can be protected by the dynasty's fortune in the future.
This thing is so mysterious that it is better to believe it exists than to believe it does not.
The leading officer is at the highest level of strength, and his position among the officers and soldiers guarding the tower should be like a team leader.
At a glance!
It can be seen that King Wen doesn’t even have the ultimate level, let alone the innate level!
The young man next to him was simply ignored by the officers and soldiers. He was the same, not even a Jidao person.
The domain of the extreme realm will give people a sense of oppression even if the cultivator does not release it deliberately, and can be recognized at a glance.
"Well, no need to be polite." King Wen was also very arrogant and nodded slightly.
"Today is a sunny day, a perfect day to send the tower! Your Majesty is farsighted and will surely be victorious!"
The crude military officer was indeed lacking in the choice of words and sentence structure. Hearing this, the corners of King Wen's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but glance at Jiang Bei out of the corner of his eye.
Without saying much to the officers and soldiers, the leaders of the officers and soldiers in the camp who had heard the news had already come out in advance.
"Your Highness Prince Wen, I hope you are well. Hahaha." He walked forward and laughed out loud.
"I am old." King Wen smiled and shook his head. "But Chief Qian has been promoted step by step. Now he has reached this point. He is truly the leader among the younger generation."
"Thanks to His Royal Highness King Wen." Chief Qian said with a smile, and then changed the subject, "Your Royal Highness King Wen, please follow me. I will take you into the tower."
"Stay away! King Wen doesn't like pomp and circumstance!" He shouted to the officers and soldiers guarding here.
In the hearts of officers and soldiers.
Which beast told them yesterday that King Wen likes pomp and circumstance the most and wanted them to do everything to save face?
This has changed so suddenly?
Let’s go! Let’s go! Those who need to fish can go fishing, and those who need to drink can drink!
This day... is very boring.
…
At that time.
Chief Qian has already brought King Wen and Jiang Bei to the barracks.
"Your Majesty, this is..."
"Yes, this is Mr. Jiang, and he is also the genius who will enter the Tower of the Gods this time." King Wen said directly.
In the previous seven days, King Wen had already met with Leader Qian.
As the saying goes, it is easy to meet the King of Hell but difficult to deal with the little devils, especially Chief Qian who has been guarding the tower here for decades, so naturally he has to be manipulated.
Chief Qian is just like his surname, he has no other hobbies in life except money!
As for King Wen, he called himself a scholar. When did he ever worry about money? As long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem.
Leader Qian was dealt with...
After meeting Jiang Bei, he flattered him almost to the sky, making Jiang Bei feel ashamed. This skill... is really exaggerated.
But Chief Qian also knew that King Wen wanted to gain a good reputation before his death, but in reality...
He was not going to enter the Tower of the Gods at all, but wanted to send this young man named Jiang in!
genius!
A true genius! It is very likely that he came to the God-Connecting Tower for a trial before the battle for luck began.
Took King Wen's money.
Chief Qian was not a man who did not do his job. In order to maintain the friendship between the two sides, he also gave Jiang Bei some information he knew about the Tower of the Gods.
"This Tower of Communication with Gods has existed since ancient times. After the war, most of the foundation of the Taoist sect was destroyed, but the Tower of Communication with Gods has always been there."
"It is said that... this tower does not operate on its own, but has the existence of a tower soul. The mysterious aura we can feel now is the domain of this tower soul."
"Of course, there is another theory that this domain was imprinted in this tower by an ancient great power, and it will last for thousands of years."
Jiang Bei nodded.
He could also feel the vague aura. To be more precise, it would be more specific to describe it as pressure.
And this is just one domain, dozens of feet away from the Tower of Divine Communication.
How horrible is the suppression inside the real Tower of the Gods?
It’s no wonder that those geniuses in the past wanted to perfect themselves by relying on the domain within the Tower of Divinity, but ultimately failed. This is simply a pressure that mere geniuses cannot resist.
"This tower has ten floors in total, and each floor is very different."
“Those who are stronger than Xiantian can barely enter the second level, but after entering the second level… they are in danger of death.”
"Each floor has a puppet responsible for guarding, and its realm is equivalent to that of the monks who enter this floor."
If that were all, Jiang Bei wouldn't be that worried.
The realm is the same, then...
etc!
Could this realm be defined according to Taoism in ancient times?
In other words, the real combat capability of this puppet is equivalent to that of a Taoist genius at the same level in ancient times?
And there is also the domain of the Tower of Divine Powers. How can we play here?
From this perspective, it is quite difficult for those innate cultivators to pass the first stage.
Perhaps understanding what Jiang Bei was thinking, Leader Qian nodded slightly.
"Even the first level is difficult for cultivators below the Xiantian realm."
This is also what Chief Qian cannot understand!
This Jiang Bei... is of the same character as King Wen, he doesn't even have the ultimate way, isn't he just seeking death by entering the Tower of the Gods?
This may not sound pleasant, but after some hesitation, Chief Qian finally explained it to King Wen.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
"Just say it." King Wen waved his hand, very arrogant.
"This Tower of Divine Communication... has never had a cultivator below the Xiantian level who could enter and come out alive! Even if it's just the first floor."
In fact, this is a bit of an exaggeration.
Thousands of years ago, there were still some extremely skilled monks who came out alive...but in the past one or two thousand years, there have been no more.
Even in this thousand years, no cultivator below the innate level dared to enter!
Once you go in, you will die.
In this situation, you arranged for a cultivator who is not even at the highest level to come in? Isn't that sending him to his death?
We can understand that you, an old man with a doomed face, went in, but this guy named Jiang... is obviously a good candidate.
"Your Highness may not know much about the Tower of Communication... so..."
"Don't worry, we all know it." King Wen said with a smile.
"Then this..."
"Send friend Jiang into the tower."
"yes."
Even though Chief Qian was confused, he still had to obey the order given by King Wen.
I have a guess in my mind, is it possible that... this Jiang guy offended King Wen?
But along the way, he didn't see anything unnatural on Jiang's face!
If I had to say something, it was a hint of seriousness, as if he knew that this journey would not be easy and he did not dare to take the Tower of Gods lightly in the slightest.
Were you not forced?
Could it be that... this person is really that kind of peerless genius?
The kind that is rarely seen in thousands of years?
No... thousands of years is probably a conservative estimate. It would be more appropriate to say that not one is seen in ten thousand years.
If someone from the extreme realm enters, it’s a dead end. You haven’t even reached the extreme realm, yet you’re still so brave?
However, a genius that is only seen once in ten thousand years...Chief Qian feels that the possibility of this assessment is less than one in ten thousand.
Maybe it was because Jiang was too arrogant and fooled King Wen, so he really helped him to find the king's divine stone and then brought him here to give...
It's really outrageous!
But this idea is still reasonable. After all, King Wen was granted the title of Yunzhou... What kind of genius can come from such a remote and poor place?
If you meet someone who comes from nowhere and has some talent, he might be able to fool King Wen.
Along the way, Chief Qian didn't ask many questions.
There is no need to talk too much to a dead person. For this ignorant kid, sending him to the Tower of the Gods is the best outcome.
When the two men came about ten feet in front of the ten-story ancient tower, Chief Qian stopped.
"Mr. Jiang, you have to go through the rest of the journey by yourself. The aura of this Tower of Divine Communication..."
"I understand." Jiang Bei nodded.
Coming to this place, the atmosphere made him feel very depressed, as if this was not the path to God at all, but the door to hell!
According to Chief Qian's instructions, Jiang Bei embedded the divine stone of unknown material inside the gate of this ancient tower.
The aura emanating from this stone has exactly the same charm as that emanating from the ancient pagoda.
