The passage of time was almost unnoticeable in the valley. The group didn't know how long they had been walking before they vaguely saw an iron tower.
This iron tower rises so high into the sky that the top is completely invisible.
The gate exuded a stale smell that had accumulated over the years, and at the same time, an extremely powerful energy surrounded the iron tower, strongly impacting everyone's heart.
Chen Yang felt his heart beating so fast, he had never felt this way before.
His face turned pale.
Xue Qing's body also softened.
"Such a powerful energy, Chen Yang, Miss Xue Qing, can't you bear it?" Han Xiaotian asked with a serious look in his eyes.
Only then did Chen Yang realize that Xue Qing's condition was worse than his.
"If I had known earlier, I would have let you stay in the Monster Tribe." Chen Yang said.
"No." Xue Qing held his hand: "I'm fine!"
She gritted her teeth and drew a bloody mark on her wrist. Blood gushed out and she silently chanted a spell. A ray of light enveloped her whole body.
This is a heart-protecting formation that can temporarily isolate powerful energy shocks.
Unfortunately, the heart protection formation can only be placed around oneself, and can only protect oneself, not others.
"I'm fine!" Chen Yang gritted his teeth.
He looked towards the tower with a gloomy look.
Now that he has come here, he must go in no matter how difficult it is. This is the first test.
"Awoo!" Xiao Ling called out anxiously, raised his big claws and threw Chen Yang onto his back.
"It's useless! That energy is everywhere, I have to resist it on my own!" Chen Yang slid down from its back and walked forward step by step.
Every step I took seemed to encounter huge resistance.
Han Xiaotian's eyes were solemn. "Chen Yang, have you ever thought about this? It's already so difficult outside the door, what about after you go in? That energy will only be stronger. If you encounter the Qianjun Strange Fire, maybe it won't even need to get close to you, and you'll be knocked unconscious by its powerful energy!"
Han Xiaotian felt that what was wrong was that the river beast praised the Qianjun Strange Fire too highly and did not mention a single word about the negative aspects.
The negative situation is that it is difficult for ordinary people to even get close to the strange fire. For example, Chen Yang, obviously because of his low realm, could not hold out in front of the iron tower door!
With every step Chen Yang took, the true energy in his body was put to a huge test, but he still moved forward step by step.
"Chen Yang!" Xue Qing was almost in tears and walked over to support him.
"I'll give you the heart-protecting formation!" As she said that, she raised her hand to cut her wrist, but was stopped by Chen Yang.
"You're not going to die. How much energy is needed to cast a heart-protecting formation on someone else?"
“But you…”
"I'm fine!" Chen Yang forced a smile, raised his hand tremblingly, and the Seven Deadly Swords appeared in his hand.
The sword shone with golden light, like an ancient weapon, emitting divine power in Chen Yang's hand.
A powerful energy swept away the gloomy and desolate energy around it.
"What a good sword!" Han Xiaotian couldn't help but admire.
This was not the first time he had seen Chen Yang's sword, but the energy emitted by the sword at this moment truly surprised him.
Holding the Seven Absolute Swords, Chen Yang felt much better and his mind became more stable.
When several people walked into the iron tower, Han Xiaotian's heart tightened, as if it was pinched by a hand. He couldn't help but look slightly shocked. This Qianjun Strange Fire was not something that everyone could touch!
The inside of the tower was covered with a thick layer of dust.
Soon, Han Xiaotian discovered that it was not dust, but powder made from bones.
"Chen Yang, let's leave. This strange fire might turn people into dust!" Han Xiaotian said solemnly.
Although Chen Yang was under tremendous pressure, his eyes were still searching inside the iron tower. He would never leave unless he saw the strange fire, even if he was burned to ashes.
"Brother Han, if I, Chen Yang, cannot obtain this strange fire today, I will let it burn me to ashes. I also hope that you can take care of Xue Qing and Xiao Ling on my behalf!"
"Chen Yang!" Xue Qing had tears in her eyes, and Xiao Ling kept roaring.
When Xiao Ling entered here, the energy fluctuations had already made him very anxious. Now, after hearing what Chen Yang said, he almost started to go berserk!
"Are you really planning this?" Han Xiaotian asked with a frown.
Since coming here, his brows have never been relaxed, let alone maintaining his usual smile.
"That's really what I plan to do!" Chen Yang said with a firm look in his eyes.
"Okay!" Han Xiaotian shouted, "In that case, I will sacrifice my life to accompany you!"
"Chen Yang, if you are burned to ashes, I will not live either!"
Xiao Ling's cry expressed the same meaning.
Chen Yang smiled bitterly: "Even if you are willing to die with me, how can I agree!"
"No need to say more, let's look for the strange fire!" Han Xiaotian doesn't like these nagging things.
As he spoke, his figure flew straight up and arrived at the second floor of the tower.
Although there was still some kind of energy accumulated in his chest, he could still bear it.
Looking up, this iron tower probably has at least twenty floors. Which floor is the strange fire on?
Han Xiaotian guessed that the place with the strongest energy fluctuation should be the location of the strange fire.
Concentrate silently and sense the energy fluctuations around you.
At this time, Xiao Ling also rushed up, and Xue Qing also began to join the ranks of searching for the strange fire.
"Ouch!" Xiao Ling screamed inside the iron tower.
Chen Yang said loudly: "The temperature of the strange fire is extremely high. Everyone, be careful. If you sense it, don't rashly alarm it!"
Hearing this, everyone's footsteps became lighter.
Chen Yang sat upright on the ground, placed the Seven Absolute Sword in front of him, breathing silently, and the sword light of the Seven Absolute Sword quickly enveloped him.
This is the remnant of his own energy from a hundred years ago. Let's see if he can absorb some of it to resist the energy fluctuations of the strange fire in this iron tower.
With his eyes slightly closed, after a moment, Chen Yang's face showed a hint of redness.
He opened his eyes and said happily, "As expected of the Seven Absolute Sword, it has actually reached the upper Golden Core realm. It will have no problem resisting the energy of the strange fire!"
Although he had no problem resisting the energy of the strange fire, it did not mean that he could successfully devour the strange fire. It was even difficult for him to come into contact with the strange fire.
Thinking of the day he left Floating Cloud Sect, and the expressions of Jiang Yunlan and Jiang Mang, his eyes became firm.
No matter how difficult it is, I must devour the strange fire!
He slowly stood up, took a deep breath, and looked towards the top of the tower.
A black smoke fell from the sky, his eyes trembled, and then he picked up the Seven Deadly Sword and stabbed it.
A figure tilted sideways, avoided the Seven Deadly Swords, and landed in front of Chen Yang.
It was the demon cultivator who had ambushed Han Xiaotian and pierced through Dead Language's body!
Suddenly, Han Xiaotian, Xue Qing, and Xiao Ling all returned to Chen Yang's side.
"I didn't expect you to come here too. You're not simple." The hoarse voice of the demon cultivator sounded.
"A hundred years ago, the Demon God was sealed, and all the demon cultivators stayed in the Nether Valley and dared not go out. How come you are so bold now and dare to move around?" Han Xiaotian said.
"You also said it was a hundred years ago. The times are different now. Many of our people have come out." The demon cultivator spoke coldly.
