I Have A Divination System

Chapter 54: Breaking Out of Soul Locking Tower (Part 1)

Views:

What's wrong with being afraid of being poor? Go out and ask, how many people in this world are not afraid of being poor

Moreover, every now and then in the news you can see someone who is depressed and wants to commit suicide, someone who has suffered a breakup and wants to commit suicide, someone who has lost his job and wants to commit suicide. But have you ever heard of someone who is too rich and wants to become poor

No!

"Hahahaha" the high priest on the throne suddenly laughed out loud without any warning. His laughter was utterly ungraceful and exaggerated. After a long time, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Lin Xi.

Chen Chu instinctively took a step forward. Just as he blocked Lin Yan, he heard the high priest say in an extremely happy voice: "You are right. I agree."

Am I right? What did I say

Lin Yan looked at Chen Chu with a question mark on her face. Chen Chu explained: "The high priest can sense your inner thoughts through soul resonance."

Lin Yan's eyes widened immediately: "Mind reading?"

The high priest could actually read minds, so the escape that I had been planning for half a day was actually heard by him

High Priest: “Yes, I heard it all.”

Did you hear it again? This kind of person is really terrible. There is no secret in front of him. Will the system be discovered too

"What's the beep?" the high priest suddenly asked.

Beep? Lin Yan was confused.

"What else have you hidden that I haven't discovered yet?" The high priest looked at Lin Yan with a little interest. In his eyes, Lin Yan was as weak as an ant and could be crushed to death at will. So he was not worried about whether Lin Yan had any powerful props hidden on her. He was just bored for too long and was extremely curious about new things.

System? Lin Xi subconsciously thought of the system. She was just worried that the system would be discovered, so the information about the system was blocked

"System, can you block the high priest's mind reading?" In order to confirm her guess, Lin Xi asked the system directly.

"The existence of the system is the highest secret under the rules of heaven and earth. No one except the host can recognize it. Moreover, the other party is not using mind reading. It's just that your emotions fluctuate too much, making it easy for others to capture your thoughts. Idiot, calm down." The system scolded.

Lin Yan was scolded by the system, and Gu had to be angry and continued to ask: "So the other party can't hear my communication with you, right?"

System: “Of course.”

Lin Yan: "That's fine, otherwise I really don't have any cards left."

Seeing that Lin Yan's expression was getting more and more agitated, Chen Chu was afraid that she really had some life-saving trump card that would be asked by the high priest, so he suddenly turned around, blocked the high priest's gaze with his body, gently pressed his hands on Lin Yan's shoulders, and said in a gentle tone: "Don't be nervous, that's not mind reading. He can just sense your emotions through the fluctuations of your soul, so you just need to calm down and not be so nervous, and he won't be able to hear your voice."

The system had just reminded her of this. Lin Xi took a few deep breaths and her emotions gradually stabilized. She was not afraid even if she was emotionally agitated. As long as she replaced her mental activities with communication with the system, the system would naturally help her block it out.

"It's meaningless." The high priest's slightly dissatisfied voice came from above.

Chen Chu looked at the high priest and continued the topic that had been interrupted just now: "High priest, I asked my friend to leave all the energy stones she took away. Please let her go."

The high priest looked at Chen Chu and sneered, "It's been five years, Chen Chu, and you are still so hypocritical."

Chen Chu frowned and said nothing.

High Priest: "Are you and your two companions still friends?"

Chen Chu's eyes flickered slightly, but he said nothing.

"System, the high priest said that senior Chen Chu's companions five years ago were Tang Lanyue and Li Jiamu?" Lin Wei asked.

"I'm just a divination system." said the system.

The high priest continued, "I gave you seven years to take revenge, but you didn't kill them. Why, I see you don't like that girl either."

"System, what does the high priest mean? Asking the senior to take revenge? What revenge?" Lin Xi asked the system.

"I'm just a divination system." said the system.

"Analyzing from the context, Senior Chen Chu should be trying to kill Tang Lanyue and Li Jiamu. You have also divined before, and you know that Senior has been hurt by them, so could it be that the curse on Senior was cast by these two people?" Lin Xi continued to analyze.

"I'm just a divination system." said the system.

"System, the high priest said that it has been seven years, and the curse happened five years ago. That means the curse on the senior will not be activated for another two years?" Lin Xi continued to ask.

"I'm a divination system, not a chat software!" The system, which was continuously harassed, could no longer endure it. It had never seen such a short-sighted human being.

"I know. I'm just afraid that the high priest will find out. Talking to you can block his eavesdropping. I'll just talk about my own things. Just ignore me." Lin Xi said.

“…” This was the first time that the system was bugged by someone else.

"If I want revenge, you are the one who should be killed the most." Chen Chu looked at the high priest and said calmly, "The situation at that time was carefully designed by you. No matter what they choose, I will be cursed in the end."

"That's right!" the high priest praised, "You are very smart, but you are still sad, aren't you? Even though you know that everything was planned by me, you were still sad when they chose to transfer the killing curse to you, weren't you? After they left, did they pretend that nothing had happened and wanted to continue to be friends with you? When they saw that you were still alive, they even wondered, why didn't you die? It's a good thing that the killing curse was transferred to you in the first place."

Chen Chu's face was calm, but his tightly clenched fists still showed his inner unrest.

"System, the Death Curse, senior has been hit by the Death Curse! You are a rubbish system, how come you can't predict it!" When Lin Yan heard that Chen Chu was hit by the Death Curse, she lost her composure.

"I'm predicting the bad luck that's about to happen. There's no point in me predicting the bad luck that happened five years ago." After being continuously harassed and verbally insulted by Lin Yan, the system completely abandoned its calmness as an artificial intelligence.

"Then tell me now whether the senior's curse will come true?" Lin Xi asked.

The system remained silent and ignored.

"System? System? Don't play dead. Tell me the divination." Lin Xi kept harassing the system, but the system seemed determined and ignored her.

Lin Yan shouted several times and gradually calmed down. According to the nature of the system, whenever bad luck occurs, it will immediately perform divination. This is the main program of the system, which is equivalent to instinct. However, it has not performed divination, which means that Senior Chen Chu will not have bad luck and the death curse will not come true. Therefore, when the divination system does not perform divination, it is the best time.

Chen Chu did not intend to respond to the high priest. No matter what he said, he remained calm. Because he knew better than anyone that loneliness was the high priest's greatest pain in his long and almost endless life. The more excited he was, the more excited he became.

The high priest saw that no matter what he said, Chen Chu had a dead expression. Lin Yan, who was originally emotional and could easily read his mind, did not know how to block his perception. The familiar feeling of loneliness spread, and the high priest's voice suddenly became cold, like ice piercing the bones: "Although I gave you seven years, you came early, you should have thought of the answer. Chen Chu, tell me, your answer."

Chen Chu's body suddenly tensed up, but he still stared firmly at the cold green eyes on the throne, and said in a deep voice: "My answer is still the same."

Just as Lin Xi was thinking about what answer the high priest wanted, the familiar black and gold stick holder began to shake.

[Chen Chu, male, 24 years old, refused the high priest's request, and the death curse came true in advance. He will die from the curse in 24 hours.]

What?!!

Lin Yan could no longer remain silent, so she turned around and said loudly, "High Priest, let's talk it over. I will persuade him again. I will persuade him."

The high priest looked at Lin Yan with cold eyes. He could clearly feel the anxiety and fear in the girl's heart. "Okay, you persuade her. If you succeed, I will not only let you out, but also give you half of the remaining wealth in the Soul Locking Tower. Including all the props inside."

The high priest's generosity did not excite Lin Yan, but made her feel depressed. Everything in this world has a price tag. What kind of thing is worth such a price

But no matter what, she had to ask. Lin Xi pulled Chen Chu aside, thought about it, and felt that it was still unsafe. In the end, she simply took out her mobile phone and typed on it.

Lin Yan: [Senior Chen Chu, what is it? If you can, just agree to it. I just did a divination and it said that you will die in 24 hours.]

He died after 24 hours, so the high priest cast a death curse.

Chen Chu was not surprised. He took the phone and typed directly on Lin Yan's phone: [Don't worry about me. When I fight him later, you find a chance to run. The space props are all with the Sea King. Go find him.]

Lin An was so anxious: [What is it? Why can't you agree? If you really can't agree, you can just pretend to agree.]

Chen Chu: [Don’t get involved in this matter. Be obedient and leave.]

After saying that, Chen Chu stopped communicating with Lin Yan. He stuffed the phone into Lin Yan's arms, turned around and said to the high priest again: "I am now S-level. It is impossible for you to curse me to death directly. Why don't you let my companions leave, and I will accompany you to have a hearty fight. You have been imprisoned in the Soul Locking Tower for countless years. I think you haven't fought with anyone for a long time."

After saying that, Chen Chu's wind-related abilities surged, and the powerful energy made the entire Soul Locking Tower buzz.

The high priest suddenly stood up from his chair.

"Wait a minute!" Seeing that the two were about to fight, Lin Yan asked without giving up, "High Priest, can you tell me what's going on? Maybe I can help?"

"Lin Yan!"

Chen Chu's face changed. It was too late to stop him. He only heard the high priest's voice coming faintly from the high steps: "Take me away from here and go to your world!"

“Buzz!”

It seemed as if some powerful force was looming over her, stirring her mind into confusion and making her whole body numb.

Curse, she was cursed. At this moment, Lin Yan clearly realized that she was cursed, an extremely powerful curse. She even knew the content of the curse.

Keep it secret, she must keep the secret of what she just heard. She also immediately understood that the reason why Chen Chu scolded her loudly was to prevent her from being cursed because of the information she just heard.

In any case, Lin Yan heard it and understood it. She looked at the high priest in horror: "Can you leave here and go to Earth?"

High Priest: "That's right. You just need to prepare a recently deceased Level 8 corpse. According to your ability level, it should be the peak of Level B. Then take my soul out, and I can be reborn in that body."

Possession? It turns out that immortality novels are not a lie. Is it really possible to possess a body in this world

Chen Chu: "Give up on this idea. I won't let you leave here."

High Priest: "Why? What's wrong with me going out? You have always wanted to understand the subspace. That's what you call it, right? As long as I go out, I can tell you everything I know. I can teach you how to practice and let the supernatural civilization here reappear on Earth."

Chen Chu: "What good can a person who is imprisoned by his own civilization do in someone else's civilization?"

The Soul Locking Tower is a cage. The supernatural beings on Earth had judged it a long time ago. They judged that the Soul Locking Tower should be a place where the original civilization of the subspace used to imprison villains. The building of the Soul Locking Tower is engraved with runes everywhere. Behind each powerful rune is a powerful rule. The humans in the subspace would rather use such a complicated method to build a cage than kill the prisoner. There are probably only two reasons.

First, this person is extremely noble and cannot be killed.

Second, this person cannot be killed, he can only be imprisoned.

Originally Chen Chu was not sure, but when he heard the high priest asking him to take him out to seize the body, Chen Chu knew the answer. The high priest cannot be killed.

Even if the civilization of the subspace was annihilated and all the living beings perished in the catastrophe, the high priest could still retain his memory. He was the only spirit, at least the only one Chen Chu had ever seen, that could retain his memory continuously. Other spirits had also been analyzed by subspace researchers. They found that although the spirits of the subspace were intelligent, every time the subspace was closed and opened, the powerful force of space would confuse their memories. Every time they saw an alien supernatural being, it was like the first time they saw him. But the high priest could still remember what happened five years ago.

The high priest looked at Chen Chu deeply: "What if I swear?"

Rules? The amount of information Lin Yan received at this moment was too much for her limited brain capacity to process. The only thing she could grasp was the word "rules".

She remembered Chen Chu saying that the Soul Locking Tower had a rule. Every time a curse was completed, a prop to remove the curse would be generated in the Soul Locking Tower. If this rule was established, then there must be a prop that could remove the death curse on Chen Chu. The divination result showed that Senior Chen Chu would be cursed to death in 24 hours, so she still had time.

Lin Yan lowered her head and quickly typed a line of words, then handed the phone to Chen Chu: [There must be a prop on the seventh floor that can remove your curse. Don't give up. We can run away once we get the prop.]

Chen Chu shook his head helplessly and motioned Lin Ping to look ahead.

Lin Xi looked at the mountains of jewels, energy stones and props in the hall and understood what Chen Chu meant. Only one prop could be taken out of the Soul Locking Tower. Among these mountains of props, how could they be sure which one was the one that could lift Chen Chu's curse

"It would be great if Poseidon were here." Lin Xi couldn't help but say.

"What do you want me to do?"

The sudden voice startled Lin Yan and Chen Chu. One of them was surprised, the other was shocked as they looked at the man who walked in from outside the barrier.

Chen Chu: "Why are you here?!"

Unlike Lin Yan, the Sea King came in on his own initiative, and the high priest could have cursed him. Therefore, even if he risked his life to open the barrier and stop the high priest, it would be in vain if the Sea King was cursed.

"Nonsense, three people come in and I go out alone. How am I going to explain to the people in Group 6?" Neptune hesitated for a long time at the exit of the third floor. He knew that even Chen Chu was not sure of survival on the seventh floor. If he went there, he would most likely just die. He tried to leave several times, but he couldn't move his legs.

To be honest, even now, he didn't know why he had gone to the seventh floor. But since he was here, he might as well be cool.

"Sea King, be careful. The high priest is cursing... It's too late." In just one sentence, the system completed two divinations.

[Xie Xingyu, male, 24 years old, is about to become impotent due to a curse.]

[Xie Xingyu, male, 24 years old, already has impotence.]

Chen Chu and Hai Wang looked at Lin Yan at the same time. Neither of them looked too surprised. One of them had already guessed it, and the other came in.

Be prepared to be cursed.

The Sea King pretended to be relaxed and said, "I'm cursed? Did you predict this with the bad luck divination?"

Lin Yan nodded.

The Sea King said nonchalantly: "Then can you tell me what curse I have been cursed by?"

Even if Lin Yan told him that it was a death curse, he would not be excited.

Lin: "Impotence."

These two short words crushed the heroic spirit of the Sea King, who was ready to face death head-on. He rushed towards the high priest on the steps like a madman: "I will fight you to the death!"

Chen Chu quickly stopped the man and said, "Calm down."

"How can I stay calm?" Which man can tolerate this

"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the divination task. I will reward you with a little merit and 0 yuan for divination."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the divination task. I will reward you with a little merit and 0 yuan for divination."

Lin Xi sighed silently: He is worthy of being the high priest who can see the most fearful things in people’s hearts.

The high priest sneered: "A mere ninth-level water-type supernatural being, he doesn't know how to live or die!"

As he spoke, the high priest spread out his sleeves, and a powerful supernatural power vibrated out and rushed towards the Sea King.

"Go!" Chen Chu pushed Aquaman away and blocked him. The two powerful powers collided in the air, forming a huge energy vortex. The energy vortex rolled up the things on the ground and threw them down heavily, making the already messy hall even more messy.

It's bad. Although the original hall was messy, at least you could tell where there were more props and where there were more energy stones. But now, everything is mixed together. As a result, the probability of finding props is even smaller.

Chen Chu stood between them and the high priest and said to the Sea King: "I will stop him, you find a way to blast open the barrier and take Lin Yan away."

There is an exit at the corner of the sixth floor. As long as you can run out of the barrier, you will have a chance to escape.

The high priest snorted coldly, stretched out his right hand to grab the air, and a scepter inlaid with gems flew from a distance and landed in the high priest's hand. The moment the scepter was in his hand, the pressure on the high priest became three times stronger.

Chen Chu's face suddenly changed.

"What a pity! I have waited countless years for someone who can carry my soul." The high priest said, "But it doesn't matter. If I kill you, at least I can have my soul again."

Chen Chu said without any surprise: "As expected, it was me you wanted to take over from the beginning to the end."

The high priest stopped pretending and said, "So what?"

The high priest stomped his staff heavily on the ground, and the floor trembled. Countless dark energies surged out from the ground, and enveloped the three people at lightning speed. In a moment, it formed a cage in the shape of a birdcage, trapping the three people inside. Chen Chu tried to split the cage, and as soon as he chopped it out with his supernatural power, he was immediately shocked by the huge recoil and spit out blood.

"Chen Chu!" Lin Xi and Neptune were both shocked.

"This is the power of the Soul Locking Tower's rules. It took me hundreds of years to extract a little bit of it. I can't even break it, let alone you." The high priest sneered, "I know what you're thinking. You want to self-destruct, blow up the barrier, sacrifice yourself, and save your companions, right? You're dreaming! Why should I fight with you? You'll die on your own. How many days? Three days, yes, three days. I've heard from those outsiders that if you stay here for three days and can't get out within three days, you'll be drained of your superpowers and die. But Chen Chu, you won't live to that time. You can only live for one day. How about I give you another chance. There's still one day. You just need to promise me to take me out. I promise not to hurt your companions."

"What? This monster can still get out? Chen Chu, don't agree to him, just die." Anyway, Aquaman has no desire to live anymore.

The high priest looked at the Sea King and gently hooked his finger towards the ground. A force lifted a wooden sign and slowly floated up from the ground. "This is the item that can remove your curse. If you can convince Chen Chu, I can give it to you when I leave."

Aquaman wanted to say no, but he really wanted it. Even if he died, he wanted to remove the curse first before dying.

"Which prop is used to unlock Senior Chen Chu?" Lin Xi suddenly asked.

The high priest looked at Lin Xi.

Lin Xi's voice clicked, and she nervously muttered to the system: "System, block him quickly! Block him quickly!"

"… "system.

After repeating it ten times in a row, Lin Yan finally calmed down and made sure that her emotions would not be read by the other party: "I'm just curious. Chen Chu is going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter if I take a look at the props."

The high priest couldn't hear Lin Yan's thoughts, but he could feel her emotions, the excitement, anxiety, and luck, as if there was still a way out. But the high priest calculated again and again, and they should have no way out.

The doubt in his heart made the high priest instinctively reject Lin Xi's request: "You are right, he is going to die anyway, what's the point of looking at the props?"

Lin Yan: “…”

This old monster is so suspicious that he is still so cautious even in this situation.

Lin Yan: "Well, if Chen Chu agrees, will you really let us go? And give me all the wealth of Soul Locking Tower?"

The high priest smiled and said, "You are very greedy. Even in this situation, you still dare to covet the treasures of Soul Locking Tower. But I like it. As long as you can convince Chen Chu to take me out, I will grant you all my promises before."

Chen Chu is already doomed to die, so the only one who can make him compromise is his companion. Good people are always more willing to give for others. How stupid.

Lin Yan: "Okay, I'll try to persuade Chen Chu."

Having said that, Lin Xi turned around, pulled Chen Chu and Hai Wang together, and the three of them formed a circle and squatted on the ground.

Chen Chu was the person involved. He looked at Lin Xi without saying anything.

Hai Wang was a man who could not hold back his words, so he immediately became rude: "Lin Yan, don't try to blackmail me morally. It wasn't Chen Chu who caused you to go to the seventh floor."

"Shut up!" Lin Yan glared at him, then took out her cell phone and waved it in front of the two of them.

The two were stunned, and realized that Lin Yan had something to say. They immediately quieted down and watched Lin Yan typing quietly.

Lin Yan: [No matter what you see, stay calm, otherwise the high priest will read our thoughts, especially the Sea King.]

Hai Wang was not convinced, especially what the hell was he? But he immediately thought of something, took a deep breath, and nodded heavily to Lin Yan.

Lin Yan waited until both of them calmed down before continuing to type: [I have a way to open the cage, and if I’m lucky, I can also open the barrier.]

Chen Chu and Hai Wang both felt choking and looked at Lin Xi in disbelief.

Lin: [Keep calm.]

The two of them were experienced psychics who had experienced many battles, and since Lin Xi had reminded them in advance, they quickly calmed down.

Lin Yan: [I have a tool that should be able to break the rules.]

Hai Wang snatched Lin Yan's phone and typed: [What do you mean by should.]

Lin Yan: [I haven’t tried it, so I’m not sure, but it’s probably possible. Senior Chen Chu has seen it, Blizzard City, remember when it was dark?]

Chen Chu nodded.

Lin Yan: [The ruler breaks, the sky turns dark, and the skill "Under the long night, there are no rules" is triggered. If it is true, the rules here will be broken. But if it is false, we are dead.]

After the Master's ruler broke, Lin Xi kept thinking about what "no rules under the long night" meant. In the end, the most reasonable explanation she could think of was to eliminate all rules, which just confirmed the words on the ruler: "Without rules, there can be no square or circle." If the ruler is a symbol of rules, then breaking it means no rules.

Aquaman was the first to express his opinion: [If you want to die, then die. Let’s do it now.]

Lin Yan: [No hurry, don’t you want the item to remove the curse?]

Aquaman subconsciously looked in a direction outside the cage. The wooden sign that could lift his curse was right there. He had been staring at it for a long time.

Lin Yan continued typing: [We already know which item the Sea King has, so we’ll just take it. As for Senior Chen Chu’s item, we’ll have to rely on luck.]

Chen Chu smiled and shook his head, typing on his phone: [Don’t worry about me.]

It is too difficult to find the props to lift his curse, but it is already good enough if we can find the one for Aquaman.

Lin Yan ignored him and quietly took out a pink hairpin: [Let me introduce you to this: this is the hairpin of the goddess of luck, and it is also a supernatural item.]

"Oh my god!" Aquaman couldn't help it. Wow, you have so many props on you. You must run a prop shop.

Chen Chu and Lin Yan glared at him at the same time. Neptune quickly shut up, but the look he gave Lin Yan was full of admiration.

Lin Yan: [After wearing the hairpin, you can make a wish. Within five minutes, the koi will possess you. As long as you make a wish, the chances of success are very high. I'm too slow, so it won't work. Who will do it?]

Chen Chu and Hai Wang looked at each other, and finally Chen Chu took the hairpin and handed it to Hai Wang, typing on his phone: [I will stop the high priest, you take it.]

Aquaman snatched the phone: [I can’t take two props by myself.]

Lin Yan: [Idiot, there are no rules anymore, it doesn’t matter how many you get.]

Aquaman opened his mouth, but was speechless for the first time after being scolded.

Aquaman changes the subject: [How long can your dark skill last?]

Lin Xi shook her head. Last time, she was so focused on escaping that she didn't pay attention to the time.

Chen Chu types: [About ten minutes.]

Aquaman: [Ten minutes of darkness, five minutes of luck, take the minimum, we only have five minutes.]

The three of them looked at each other, nodded in unison, and prepared to get started.

Lin Xi took out the ruler, Hai Wang put on the hairpin, and Chen Chu gathered his strength.
