In the void.

"Something's not right."

Zhou Xun felt an ominous feeling growing stronger.

My intuition over the years is reminding me not to stay here for too long.

Like something is going to happen.

At that moment, Zhou Xun decisively prepared to leave.

And at this moment, Zhou Xun suddenly felt a special fluctuation.

Yes, just one piece.

The surrounding world, at this moment, seemed to be boiling, and it was a shocking situation that one could sense.

At this moment, a shocking aura suddenly emerged.

Zhou Xun was startled for a moment, and immediately activated his body skills and tried to dodge decisively.

However, it was as if I was trapped in a swamp, and there seemed to be countless entangled vines pulling me.

The next moment, the view in front of my eyes suddenly went dark.

At the same time, this sudden burst of power fluctuations also caused people near the circle to feel it.

At that moment, many people raised their heads to look.

At this moment, a dazzling light flashed by, and in an instant it seemed to illuminate the entire world.

The light was so strong that everyone turned their heads away.

The light soon disappeared.

Everyone then looked back.

"What happened just now, did any of you see it?"

"I don't know. It was too sudden. It was just a flash of light. I can't find out what it was."

"Why don't we go take a look? With such a big commotion, it might be some treasure."

"I won't go there. If there are a large number of beasts there, it might be too dangerous to go there."

While everyone was talking, some people set out to find out what was going on.

All of this was seen by Lu Changzhi.

Obviously, the ancestors did not adopt a similar strategy as the elders, which was to seal off the surroundings before taking action.

It can be said that it is a matter of adapting to circumstances and treating people differently.

There was no prior formation or preparation, and they just launched a sudden siege.

For someone like Zhou Xun who is good at hiding himself, this is actually a good way to avoid making a surprise attack.

As for the light just now, its purpose was obviously to divert the attention of the people below.

However, what surprised Lu Changzhi was somewhat.

Facing the joint sneak attack by a group of ancestors, Zhou Xun was so "cooperative" that he said nothing and did not even try to run away.

After a moment, Mu Yuan's voice rang out:

"It's already been packed and put away. As long as the bag is not opened, he won't wake up."

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi replied:

"Thank you for your help, ancestors."

"That's fine." Mu Yuan replied:

"It's a piece of cake."

At this time, another elder asked:

"Is there anything else I can help with, like trying to get you in there?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhangzhi was silent for a moment and said:

"Do you know what's inside?"

"I don't know for now. This method is not an ordinary formation, and I can't see what's inside." The ancestor replied.

"So, why are all the ancestors here..." Lu Changzhi asked.

"Determine the cause of the incident here, find out the truth, and if it was someone else's doing, assess the threat."

Hearing this answer, Lu Changzhi felt somewhat puzzled.

I did not tell the ancestors about my action.

I actually underestimated the importance the ancestors attached to this incident. Even the sage-level ancestor came in person.

At the moment, I can be considered to have benefited from this. By simply asking for help, I have solved the problem of arresting Zhou Xun.

However, I just mentioned it now.

Lu Zhangzhi thought for a moment, and then said:

"My dear ancestors, I can tell you the truth. I was the one who caused all the noise here."

This simple confession was like a thunderclap, falling into the crowd of ancestors.

There was a moment's silence. Judging from the message sent by the ancestor, he was already somewhat uneasy.

"What? Changzhi, you made this?"

"That figure drawing a circle this morning was you? No, what realm are you in now?"

"You actually did it. You shouldn't have done that. Although you are not simple, at your age..."

No matter how many years you have lived or how many things you have seen.

But at this moment, everyone felt it was a little unbelievable.

In particular, the moment before, he was treating the other person as a younger generation who needed to be protected, but at this moment he told himself that this child was stronger than himself.

The reversal and gap in between are shocking.

After all, when Mu Yuan analyzed the circle below, he roughly estimated that if one could really do this by just raising his hand and drawing a circle, the strength required would be more than just a little.

Lu Changzhi was not too surprised by the reactions of the ancestors.

Although this circle drawn with Jian Dao's brush has not brought out its peak power, the level of the Holy King's Law is still here.

There is definitely a shock.

But it doesn't matter whether you are shocked early or late. Now, I am not far away from the saint realm.

Let the ancestors prepare themselves mentally first.

At that moment, Lu Changzhi explained:

"My dear ancestors, the truth is this..."

May I ask where this treasure comes from? Hey, my parents gave it to me!

While explaining, Lu Changzhi controlled the Holy King Dharma below, causing it to fluctuate as proof.

"So that's how it is." An old ancestor spoke up:

"Then this treasure is really not simple."

Obviously, our ancestors still believed in the explanation given by our parents.

"Fortunately, Elder Jiang did not come in person, otherwise it would have been a wasted trip and might have delayed things there."

"What's going on there?"

Lu Changzhi noticed what was said and repeated it.

"Nine-story tower." Mu Yuan said:

"This is the most central and valuable part of the trial space. It can provide greater training assistance to those who enter the tower."

"It has not been triggered yet and is still hidden. Patriarch Jiang and his team are exploring the conditions for triggering it, whether it can be moved away, and how to make the best use of it."

Afterwards, Mu Yuan introduced the situation there to Lu Changzhi.

"So the nine-story tower is more than just a symbol?"

After listening, Lu Changzhi spoke softly.

The nine-story tower actually exists in this secret realm.

What is related to the nine-story tower is the amount of accumulated light.

This number is not just about how much light a person has accumulated, but also involves the number of people who have lit up the tower.

As far as we know, this is about whether the nine-story tower can be triggered, but the specific number of situations has not yet been clarified.

If triggered, a nine-story tower will appear in this secret realm.

If the triggering conditions are not met, the tower will remain hidden beneath the ground forever.

"The design of this secret place is quite interesting."

Thinking back to the news he had heard these days, Lu Changzhi couldn't help but shook his head.

Judging from the current situation, the appearance of the nine-story tower will probably be delayed as much as possible.

The light in each major city is transmitted layer by layer, and eventually it will be gathered in the hands of a small number of people.

As for those whose light has been collected, given the speed at which they accumulate light, it is unknown how long it will take them to light up their own tower standards.

And this is exactly what Lu Changzhi finds interesting.

The ultimate result of dividing the city and occupying it, collecting the spiritual light, is likely to be delay or even miss the core of the secret realm.

Everyone who comes in is marked by the nine-story tower, which shows the importance of this nine-story tower.

Moreover, since it could shock so many ancestors in the sect, its value can be imagined.

"It seems that we still need to pay attention to this nine-story tower."

With a soft voice, Lu Changzhi made up his mind.

If the ancestors cannot be moved away, the system may be able to help.

After all, Chen Fangyuan's inheritance was shoveled back by the system last time.

Of course, for him, there is no need to pay special attention to it.

As Mu Yuan said, once the nine-story tower appears, all the disciples and elders of the Five Elephants Sect will be able to get the news.
