Chapter 342: Nine-layer Babel Tower

Views:

The tall tower was suspended in the center of this small world, like a mirage in the sky, surrounded by auspicious clouds, with thousands of auspicious colors looming in the auspicious clouds.

In fact, the tower was hundreds of thousands of miles away from where Ye Zan and others were, and it was impossible to see it with just the naked eye. However, everyone present could feel that the tower seemed to be very close at hand, and everything could be seen so clearly.

From this, it can be inferred that probably at this time, everyone in this small world must have also seen the appearance of the tower.

Facts have proved this.

Through the monitoring of the high-altitude detector, Ye Zan had already seen at this time that after a moment of silence, sword lights quickly gathered in the direction of the tower from all directions in the world.

"Brother Ye?" Lin Mumu looked away from the tower and turned to look at Ye Zan, showing a bit of inquiry.

"Let's go directly to the tower!" Ye Zan immediately changed his goal and decided to go straight to the tower with everyone.

When the tower first appeared, Ye Zan still thought that the demonic people might have the key to entering the tower, so they would have to fight for it.

However, as the first group of people entered the tower, this guess was naturally disproven, which obviously showed that anyone could enter the tower. In this case, of course there is no need to rush to find the group of demonic people. Anyway, everyone will meet in the tower.

Moreover, through surveillance, Ye Zan has seen that the first person to enter the tower was the group of golden elixir masters from the Arctic Sword Sect and Star Sect.

It's not that those people had any information, but that their original location was less than a thousand miles away from the tower. In other words, those people were just lucky enough to gain a slight advantage in this situation.

Although it was only a small advantage, Ye Zan was not willing to let those people continue to make this advantage bigger when he was entangled with the demonic people.

As a result, Ye Zan and others immediately changed their direction and flew towards the high tower.

A distance of tens of thousands of miles is considered quite far for Ye Zan and others. The group of people walked with swords, and after nearly half a day, they finally arrived in front of the tall tower.

Although this tower is not really so tall that it can be seen from hundreds of thousands of miles away, it is indeed as tall as a tower that reaches the sky. People under this high tower are like ants, looking very small, like a speck of dust under the tower.

On the lowest floor of the tower, there is a gate on each side, which is as majestic and tall as the Tianmen. The gate is carved with simple yet mysterious patterns. Although the door is closed tightly, you can see that the door gap is as wide as a city gate, enough for people to enter the tower through the door gap. Those people from the Arctic Sword Sect and the Star Sect who had already entered the tower one step ahead of Ye Zan and others might have entered through the crack in the door.

When Ye Zan and others arrived, there were already many people around the tower. There are people from the Dao Palace, there are people from the Freemasonry, there are people that Ye Zan and others know, and there are people that Ye Zan and others have never seen before.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, do you know the situation of this tower?"

Seeing Ye Zan and others rushing over, the Taoist Palace and the Freemasonry each sent people who had dealt with Ye Zan to inquire about the situation of the tower. The person coming from the Taoist Palace was none other than the Protector of the Country, Cheng Liangqi. On the Freemasonry side, there are deacons Qiao Ronghua and He Anzhi.

Ye Zan glanced at the nine-story tower and asked Cheng Liangqi and Qiao Ronghua, "Didn't you let anyone in?"

"Well, our Dao Palace has sent several people into the tower, but no one has come out yet." Cheng Liangqi said truthfully.

And Qiao Ronghua didn't hide anything, saying: "We, the Freemasons, have also sent a few people in, but we haven't received any news yet."

The Taoist Palace and the Freemasonry were quite cautious and did not spend a lot of money to explore the tower as soon as they came up. Or it can be said that the stable and comfortable environment for thousands of years has prevented them from having a strong sense of adventure.

However, Ye Zan could not answer the questions from both parties. He could only say: "Fellow Taoists, please forgive me. I don't know more about this tower than you do. Everything has to wait until you enter it." , maybe we can have the answer.”

Neither Cheng Liangqi nor Qiao Ronghua was very satisfied with Ye Zan's answer, but it was impossible to force Ye Zan to say something. Cheng Liangqi pondered for a moment and asked tentatively: "Fellow Daoist Ye, regarding the origin of your wait, I wonder if you can give me a real answer now?"

Although Qiao Ronghua and He Anzhi did not speak, it was clear from their eyes that they were as curious as Cheng Liangqi about the origins of Ye Zan and others.

Ye Zan smiled lightly and said: "Speaking of our origins, even if I tell you now, I'm afraid you won't believe it. Maybe you will know the answer after exploring this tower."

I asked two questions, but it was the same as not asking them at all! Cheng Liangqi was quite helpless, turned around and glanced at the high tower, and then said: "According to Fellow Daoist Ye, how many of you are preparing to enter this high tower?"

"Not bad," Ye Zan nodded.

"Well, then, I won't waste Taoist friends' time." Cheng Liangqi cupped his hands and turned around to go to the Taoist Palace.

However, Qiao Ronghua did not leave immediately. Instead, he glanced at the people next to Ye Zan and said to Ye Zan: "Fellow Daoist Ye, although the cooperation between us has not been long, it is quite harmonious. This When exploring this tower, are these masters going to go with fellow Taoists?"

Although the cooperation between Ye Zan and the Freemasons did not last long, the Freemasons gained a lot of benefits from it. The masters at Ye Zan's side not only helped the Freemasonry refine many things, but also helped the Freemasonry cultivate some talents. Although those talents will not become masters immediately, when the foundation has been laid, it is only a matter of time before they become masters.

Therefore, the Freemasons may not care too much about Yezan. On the contrary, the masters on Ye Zan's side are absolutely treasures in the eyes of the Freemasons.

Now, Ye Zan wants to explore the tower. Without knowing what dangers there are, he actually wants to take several masters who are not good at fighting with him. This makes the Freemasons a little worried.

But how could Ye Zan not take them with him? If he really had to clear the level in the tower and left directly after clearing the level, wouldn't these people be trapped here forever

"Fellow Taoist, don't worry, we still have some means to protect ourselves." Zhang Qian, Song Li and others responded in a funny way.

"Then, I wish you all a safe return," Qiao Ronghua said helplessly.

Qiao Ronghua said good things, but in the situation of Ye Zan and others, it would really make people laugh or cry. After all, what Ye Zan and the others were thinking about was leaving this world, not "returning safely".

Anyway, after a few conversations, Ye Zan and others finally arrived at the bottom of the nine-story tower. Facing the crack in the door that was wide enough for people to walk through normally, Ye Zan stood on the threshold and pressed his hand on the closed door.

That tall door, even if it is made of wood, probably weighs more than 10,000 kilograms. However, Ye Zan barely put any effort, just reached out and pressed on the door and pushed gently, and the extremely tall door slowly opened.

"Hey, what's going on?" Lin Mumu was about to walk through the door, but he didn't expect Ye Zan to push the door open, and he suddenly looked very surprised.

Not to mention Lin Mumu, even those from the Taoist Palace and the Freemasonry who were watching Ye Zan and others from a distance couldn't help but be shocked when they saw this scene.

You know, they had sent people in before, and they didn't just ignore the door and just got through the crack in the door because of any fixed mindset. They actually tried to push the door open, but even with the combined efforts of everyone and the help of the Nascent Soul Ancestor, they were unable to push the door open at all.

Ye Zan, who pushed open the door and stood on the tall threshold, actually looked a little surprised. However, his surprise was not because he opened the door, but because of the abnormality that appeared inside his body when he opened the door.

Just when Ye Zan pressed his hand on the door, the one hundred and eight acupoint Yuan Dan in his body suddenly vibrated at the same time. And with the vibration, the mana in the Yuan Dan automatically flowed into the meridians, and finally gathered in his hands. Immediately afterwards, his hand instinctively pushed forward. As the mana surged out of his hand, the door that was almost impossible to open seemed to be slowly pushed open so easily.

Could it be said that Xuanqing Daozu's arrangement here opened a back door for his disciples of Yuqing Sect

Ye Zan couldn't help but think to himself.

However, things don't seem to be that simple. After all, in the entire Yuqing Sect, Ye Zan is the only one who practices the "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing". And here, there is only Ye Zan from the Yuqing Sect, so there is no way to test how other Yuqing Sect members will behave in front of this door.

In fact, when Taoist Xuan Yuan handed over the "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing" to Ye Zan, he probably felt that it was no longer necessary, so there was one thing he didn't tell him. This "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing" is exactly the technique practiced by Xuanqing Taoist ancestor, and it is also the foundation of Xuanqing Taoist ancestor's enlightenment.

In fact, the four Taoist ancestors of the Yuqing Sect all practiced different techniques. Taoist ancestor Xuanqing practiced "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing", while Taoist Xuanyuan himself practiced "The True Explanation of Taichu Yuanshi". The Taoist ancestor Xuanzhen practiced the "Sutra of Creation", while the Taoist ancestor Xuanming became enlightened through the "Sutra of Wuji Miaodao".

Since this North Pole Immortal Palace is the villa of Xuanqing Taoist Ancestor, it is not surprising that Ye Zan, who holds the "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing", is like a direct disciple of Xuanqing Taoist Ancestor, and can get some convenience here. .

In fact, the reward Ye Zan received in the previous level was already the result of opening the back door. At that level, Ye Zan received a physical refinement, pushing the "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing" directly to the limit that his state could reach, and the 108 acupoints Yuan Danqi reached the state of great success. If it were someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to get such benefits.

Although Ye Zan still doesn't know this, but just from the strange movement of the technique in his body when he pushed the door open, he had a vague guess about the relationship between this technique and Xuanqing Taoist Ancestor.

However, no matter what, we still have to explore the nine-story tower first.

You know, before Ye Zan and the others, people from the Arctic Sword Sect and the Star Sect had already entered the tower first. After those people, the Taoist Palace and the Freemasonry also sent some people, and they might have discovered something. After Ye Zan and the others, the team of demons and monsters are also rushing towards this side.

Therefore, for Ye Zan and others, it can be said that there is no need to delay.

"Let's go in." Ye Zan did not explain what happened when he opened the door, but greeted everyone and jumped from the high threshold toward the door.

The Lin family siblings and several others saw what was happening and no longer asked any questions. They all followed Ye Zan and jumped over the high threshold into the nine-story tower.

When looking from outside the gate to the inside of the tower, although the space on the first floor of the tower is vast, it is not incredibly large.

However, when Ye Zan and others jumped into the tower from the gate, the space expanded countless times, and the edge could not be seen at a glance. Moreover, when Ye Zan and others turned around, they could no longer see the entrance door. It was no wonder that no one from the Taoist Palace or the Freemasons went out to tell them the news inside.

As Ye Zan and others entered, figures appeared out of thin air in the space on the first floor of the tower. Those figures were not human beings, but various monsters, and they almost covered the entire space in the blink of an eye. As soon as these monsters appeared, they seemed like flies smelling blood, and they swarmed towards Ye Zan and others.

"Hey, what does this mean? Do you want us to kill all these monsters?" Lin Mumu said dumbfounded as he looked at the monsters coming.

Zhang Qian and Song Li from Tianbao Sect, regardless of being surprised, quickly offered their magic weapons. Hou Qingyun and Yuan Fang of the Tianfu Sect also each presented the talismans they had prepared long ago. The Lin family siblings and Shi Yingjie each wielded their swords, and the sword light circled and flew, taking the initiative to kill the incoming monsters.

Although the two alchemy masters Cheng Sheng and Lu Yuan of the Alchemy Cauldron Sect were protected by everyone, they were not willing to be protected. The two of them each took out their magical weapons and sprayed out clouds of green smoke at the incoming monsters. Under the green smoke, the monster beasts that came over suddenly seemed to move much slower.

"Hey, what is this? It looks very interesting." Lin Mumu asked the two people from the Alchemy Sect while killing the monster with his sword.

"Haha, I made fellow Taoists laugh. These are just some poisonous smokes that the two of me have refined during these days. The elixir that I had several fellow Taoists take before contains ingredients to prevent this poisonous smoke. , so fellow Taoists don’t have to worry," Cheng Sheng of the Danding Sect said with a smile.
