Inside the Wheel of Life and Death, there is a tall tower that reaches straight into the clouds. The entire body of the tower is copper in color, and there are countless small windows densely spread on the tower.
The sky was gloomy and it seemed like it was going to rain, which made people feel depressed. Looking from a distance, there was a staircase path outside the tower, climbing up in circles in a spiral shape from the bottom to the top.
At this time, a group of people were rushing down from the top of the tower on the path. Behind them in the sky, a black shadow was spreading down along the stairs around the tower.
The group of people looked back from time to time and saw that the huge black shadow was only about a mile away from them in a straight line. Fortunately, the huge black shadow did not rush straight towards them, but just circled down along the stepped path outside the tower, and could not catch up with them for a while.
As this group of people ran along, they gathered their magic power and attacked the air, resisting the various flocks of birds and monsters that kept flying out from the countless small windows on the tower.
There were huge blood-shadow sculptures, dense black abyss bats, and swarms of bloodthirsty red mosquitoes, which swept in like a raging tide.
In the sky, colorful magical lights flashed continuously, explosions sounded continuously, and those birds seemed to be endless, constantly flying out from the small windows of the tower.
They rushed towards the monks on the path in groups without regard for their lives. As the monks put up a desperate resistance, they died in large groups, one after another, fearless of death.
The monks were not rushing down very fast, as they were surrounded by enemies from all sides. Although all the birds came from inside the tower, they scattered after flying out and were everywhere in all directions.
A Qi Condensation Stage cultivator wearing the Taoist robe of Taixuan Sect was attacked simultaneously by three gigantic Sky-Winged Birds. The cultivator sacrificed a lantern-shaped magic treasure, from which large patches of scarlet candlelight shone from time to time.
When the red candlelight shone on the Skywing bird, bursts of green smoke came out of the purple feathers on its body. Several Skywing birds let out sharp screams, but were unable to fall immediately.
But before the red light in his eyes became brighter, after a few breaths of attack from the Lantern Spirit Treasure, most of the originally bright purple feathers on a Sky Wing Bird had fallen off, and it seemed that it could no longer even fly.
The Sky-Winged Bird let out a long cry, and its huge meat-ball-like body ignored the red light from the lantern and pounced on the lantern magic treasure in an embrace.
Suddenly, streams of black smoke came out of the body of the Skywing Bird, and a burning smell filled the air. It was obvious that the bird was dead.
But its desperate attack temporarily obscured a large area of the red candlelight inside the lantern magic treasure. Seeing this, the other two Sky-Winged Birds flew over quickly.
This Taixuan sect monk had never imagined that these monsters were so intelligent that they would risk their lives to cover the attacks of other monsters.
For a moment, he was shocked. Just as his mind was unstable, the magic spells in his hands slowed down. Two gusts of wind brought by his wings hit his body. An unparalleled tearing force instantly came upon him, and the monks next to him had no time to rescue him.
"No!"
The Taixuan Sect monk was blown out of the path with a scream and fell directly onto the suspended side of the path outside the tower. There was a bottomless cloud and fog there. In an instant, the screams were getting farther and farther away.
At this time, the two people running in the front couldn't help but look back.
One of them spoke with a gloomy expression while fending off the aerial attack.
"Brother Wang, if this continues, I'm afraid that before we encounter the Wuliang Sect or the demon beast clan, most of us will be killed."
“Brother Quan, although we have learned the secret here, it is only the guess of that Jindan senior. Although we are now merged together, the attacks we are suffering seem to be more intensive than those on one road. This is something that we could not have predicted before.
We have now advanced over six or seven miles, and there should be at least fifty people left. Even so, we can still defeat any team from the Wuling Sect or the demon beasts."
As another young man spoke, he swung his sword casually. Several sword lights flew into the sky, crisscrossing each other and chopped a dozen black abyss bats into a bloody mist. He turned out to be a sword monk from the Ten-Step Courtyard.
“Brother Wang, that being said, only two foundation-building cultivators can fight at the same time on one road, so it will still be a one-on-one situation.
Unless one of us is killed or one of us enters, we can enter and fight with him. It would be great if we could reach 72 people like the Qi Condensation disciples."
The cultivator before glanced at the inner sword cultivator next to him, but he himself was wearing the Taoist robe of Taixuan Sect, and both of them unexpectedly exuded the aura of the Foundation Establishment Period.
What is incomprehensible and somewhat strange is that the two of them actually appeared at the same time on the same road outside the purple bronze tower in the Wheel of Life and Death, and there were as many as sixty monks scattered on the path behind them.
This number far exceeds the thirty-seven people stipulated on one road in the Wheel of Life and Death, and they are from two different sects.
In the absence of a duel between the two sides, the rules here seemed to be as if nothing was wrong, and the path continued to extend forward. This scene that should not have happened actually appeared in the wheel of life and death...
In a space at the center of the Wheel of Life and Death, there was a yellowish earthy air floating in the air. In this empty space, an old voice was muttering to itself.
"Haha, I didn't expect that someone could see through the Five Elements Space Rules and use this to do something.
I didn't expect to find so many Qi Condensation cultivators with the same attributes, but the two Foundation Establishment cultivators relied on blue diamond crystals to stay together at the same time...
I have slept for too long, I don’t even know how many years have passed. If the wheel of life and death had not started this time, I would have continued to sleep.
However, among these monks, there is a monk with mixed spiritual roots who exudes a familiar smell. What is going on? This breath is very familiar, very familiar. "
The old voice gradually faded away, and eventually the place became silent...
This is a desolate ancient road, with endless desert on both sides of the road. An ancient road winds towards the end of the desert under the setting sun, and no one knows where the end is? Under the blood-red setting sun, a group of people stand at the starting point of the ancient road!
In the desert on both sides, many ancient buildings collapsed, some near and some far away. Many huge Buddha statues with broken limbs and arms fell in the ruins, or a part of the Buddha's head was exposed, looking up at the blood-red sky...
Or half of the stump is buried in the sand, revealing a mottled arm, with mottled fingers pointing somewhere in the sky...
Several sand scorpions quickly crawled out from under the sea buckthorn. Under the setting sun, they left faint traces on the sand and quickly crawled to the depths of the desert...
"Recover for half an hour. No matter how much mana you can recover, you must set off immediately. During this period, no one is allowed to move forward or touch anything around."
After Gong Chenying finally walked out of the sphere, he saw that everyone was either standing or sitting, constantly looking around. At this time, those who could still stand were basically those with strong magical powers. After more people came out, they immediately chose to meditate and recover, but no one walked around randomly.
After they passed the first level of the commercial street, although everyone had not had time to discuss it in detail, these were all outstanding disciples in the Qi Condensation Stage selected by the Wuliang Sect, so they were not stupid.
It has basically been guessed that in each level, as long as you don't move or touch randomly, the unknown restrictions will not be triggered immediately.
But everyone also understands that this is not an absolute thing. For example, when the time comes, the black shadow will appear immediately, which is subject to time constraints.
Li Yan found a place about three feet away from the roadside and sat down. He immediately took out the spirit stone and started meditating, but he did not completely immerse himself in cultivation.
Instead, he always paid attention to the surrounding situation. He believed that others did the same. Here, no one dared to completely enter into meditation and practice. The most they could do was to absorb as much spiritual energy as possible.
Li Yan understood the helplessness in Gong Chenying's words. It was not appropriate to recover here, but most of them had consumed nearly 70% of their mana, and only a few people still retained about half of their mana, like himself.
Li Yan still has about 80% of his magic power, which is due to the continuous operation of the five elements of the Guishui Sutra in his body and the endless replenishment.
If they move forward immediately, they will be like the Pure Land Sect monks before, but considering that the huge black shadow may appear at any time, Gong Chenying has no choice but to limit the time and let everyone take the risk to recover their magic power here.
On the ancient road, a group of people sat cross-legged in meditation. For the cultivators in practice, half an hour felt like a few breaths.
Gong Chenying opened her beautiful eyes and was stunned, because at this time there was a person standing up on the side of the road, it was Li Yan.
The spiritual energy here is extremely rich, and with the help of spiritual stones, although the recovery is extremely fast, Gong Chenying has only recovered about 30%. As his cultivation level improves, the magic power in his dantian will become more and more powerful.
Seeing Li Yan standing there, gazing into the distance as if observing something, Gong Chenying couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Could it be that his mana consumption is not much? But in the previous battle, Junior Brother did not seem to be lazy. His physique is really weird!"
With a sweep of her spiritual sense, she sensed that Li Yan had fully recovered. Previously, she had used up all her magic power and had not paid attention to Li Yan's condition.
At this time, the rest of the people also opened their eyes. Gong Chenying's spiritual sense quickly swept over them, and then he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Half an hour doesn't seem to be enough. If we set out like this now, I estimate that our combat power will be less than 40% of what it was when we first arrived."
Just as she was thinking, a voice broke the silence.
“Sixth Senior Sister, I have a few words to say, please forgive me.
First, we have already set out half an hour late. If we continue at this time, even if we reach the end, how many people will be left if we rush all the way through? Our situation is just like the Pure Land Sect just now, with few people and little fighting power.
Secondly, the spiritual energy in the Wheel of Life and Death is rich, and the recovery is several times faster than in the outside world. So, did the person who designed this formation take the recovery time into consideration at each level
Third, since it is possible to give a recovery time, where is the safe place to recover and how long is the recovery time
Fourth, I am now almost recovered and can do some temporary vigilance. If there is any problem, I will warn you in advance."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Li Yan standing on the side of the road. At this moment, he had retracted his gaze from the desert, turned his head to look at everyone, and then looked at Gong Chenying seriously.
Everyone was stunned, not knowing why Li Yan would say such words at this time. However, after a little thought, they felt relieved, because the only person here who could talk to Gong Chenying was Li Yan.
What's more, what Li Yan said made a lot of sense. After thinking about it carefully, they didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the Pure Land Sect.
Gong Chenying saw that Li Yan spoke to her first. After listening quietly, she looked at Li Yan with her beautiful eyes for a while. After thinking for a moment, she reached out and tidied the short hair beside her ears.
"Okay, we'll do our best to recover, little brother, please pay close attention!"
After saying this, he closed his eyes first without any hesitation.
She is a very smart person. Li Yan kept it short because he didn't want to waste time, and what Li Yan said was very clear.
In a flash, Gong Chenying had made the most correct judgment at the moment.
