The stars are shining brightly, and the sea of stars is flowing across the sky.
Under the starry sky, the sea water reflects the stars, and a small island floats alone.
The altar on the island has countless words and patterns left by ancient countries.
In front of the altar, green tree buds sprouted.
"Huh..."
The young man in black who was perched in front of the altar slowly opened his eyes at this moment.
He is Chen Che.
Maybe he was lucky enough, or maybe he made the right bet.
After jumping into a space crack and hurriedly escaping, not only did he not die, but he also encountered new opportunities.
This is the top floor of the ruins tower, and only those who have passed the trial can come here.
Chen Che's eyes fell on the empty sleeve of his right arm.
In the ruins of the tomb at the bottom of the North Holy Land, Ye An cut off an arm, injured his spiritual veins, and his life hung on a thread, almost causing him to almost die.
At the last moment, Chen Lao sacrificed himself to delay time for him.
"The power of the stars is enough."
"My broken arm, it's time to recover...!"
Chen Che took a long breath and then closed his eyes.
The tender green tree buds in front of the altar suddenly shimmered.
Immediately, the glimmer of light gushed out like running water, hovering around Chen Che's broken arm, and gradually condensed into the outline of an arm.
The contour lines of bones, blood veins, flesh and blood, and spiritual veins are all clearly visible.
The living dead, flesh and bones, and severed limbs, all these medical skills can only be achieved by looking for famous doctors in Zhongzhou.
But at this moment, Chen Che did it alone.
The contour lines on the broken arm of his right hand gradually disappeared, replaced by the appearance of brown skin.
Crunch…!
At first, the regenerated arm was a bit raw.
But Chen Che soon adapted.
"Regeneration of broken arm...successful."
Chen Che looked happy and stared at the palm of his right hand.
Repairing a broken arm and restoring spiritual veins are generally impossible to happen.
Only people from the temple who have mastered divine arts, or famous doctors, can do it.
With Chen Che's current ability, it was a great stroke of luck to be able to do this.
This is a joyful thing.
But suddenly, Chen Che's eyes showed a hint of resentment.
“I don’t know how far Qingxue has reached, but with her intelligence, she will definitely be able to solve the mystery of the tower—”
"It's nothing more than the rules of the stars in the sky."
Chen Che raised his head and looked at the sky, with more hatred in his tone: "Ye An, Ye An, I owe this opportunity to you."
"If you kill me, Chen Lao's secret technique can make me reborn and become stronger."
"But you were so arrogant that you didn't kill me, yet you gave me this opportunity."
"Immediately, it will be my turn for revenge very soon, just waiting for Qingxue to arrive...!"
…
…
"Yawn...!"
Ye An frowned slightly and rubbed his nose.
Another punch shattered the skeleton's frame.
For some reason, he always felt something strange and uncomfortable inside.
"H-Yawn...?"
Mu Qingxue followed behind and said with interest, "Lord Shengzi, did you catch a cold?"
Cultivators generally do not get sick, especially after completely breaking through the body tempering realm, their life span is greatly increased, and they will no longer suffer from wind and cold diseases.
Ye An was too lazy to talk to her seriously, but he felt inexplicably that someone was targeting him.
Maybe this is intuition.
"If Lord Holy Son catches a cold, just rest here."
Mu Qingxue smiled slightly, "If something happens, it won't be good."
Ye An glanced at her and heard the threat in the little girl's words.
But he wasn't too worried, and said in a deep voice: "We have reached the last floor, rest?"
"Find out the secret of this tower early and get out early."
"The world is so cold. Your Majesty's bed is probably the only place in the world that has some warmth."
Mu Qingxue's smile gradually solidified, she was silent for a moment, and said, "Okay, respect the decision of the Holy Son."
Remove the pattern imprint of the ninth layer.
At this point, a total of eight patterns from the second to the ninth floor have been completed.
Ye An still remembered that before entering the tower, the number of floors he saw was only nine.
And at the moment when the imprint pattern is removed.
There were only sounds coming from the surroundings, the stone walls of the hall trembled, and spiral staircases rose up out of thin air.
"Another staircase leading to the next level...?"
Mu Qingxue stared upward and said in surprise: "But I clearly remember that the ninth floor has reached the top, and there will be no next floor."
Ye An was silent for a while, and then in this evil environment, he jumped straight up and reached the end of the spiral staircase.
Mu Qingxue was caught off guard for a moment, hesitated a little, and then used her spiritual energy to follow Ye An.
Come to the end of the spiral staircase.
They had seen the stone door leading to the next level many times.
But the final stone gate is different from the previous ones.
There is an ethereal formation on it—
It was a teleportation array, extremely fragile, and might break into pieces with just a light touch.
Ye An and Mu Qingxue were not wrong about the impression that the tower had nine floors.
They have reached the ninth floor.
But the teleportation array carved on the stone door in front of them will take them to another place.
Compared with the previously lavish designs and ancient Chinese characters.
This time, the pattern in the stone gate is very simple.
There is a totem in the center, with an eight-fold spiral ring tightly surrounding the totem.
"What does it mean?"
Mu Qingxue frowned slightly.
She recognized the meaning of the special totem mark at the center of the eight-fold spiral circle.
At the same time, Ye An also recognized it.
He had a vague impression of that totem—
Under Qi Xi's long silver-white hair and bangs.
There is this totem mark on her forehead, which is always covered by white hair.
"According to the temple records, this is a totem created by the ancient gods."
"The meaning is... the day sun."
"And the god who controls the sun, Xihe."
Mu Qingxue said.
Ye An's eyes were calm, he nodded slightly and said, "Sun Totem."
"But logically speaking, this has been lost. Except for the temple records, others have long forgotten the meaning of this totem."
Gods need faith as the basis.
The reason why the earliest gods created totems was to gather faith and build their divine power.
Until later, the gods disappeared, the way of heaven became dim, and the number of monks who shouted against heaven gradually increased, and no one believed in a certain god anymore.
These are what are recorded in the Temple Chronicles.
Ye An and Mu Qingxue, who are the Son and the Saint, both have some understanding of this.
Mu Qingxue thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that... this has something to do with His Majesty?"
What Qi Xi inherited was the power of the god Xi He.
That's why Mu Qingxue had such an idea.
But Ye An denied it and said, "It has nothing to do with His Majesty."
"It simply means the sun."
Mu Qingxue asked in confusion: "Sun?"
"So what's the point of this..."
She murmured, feeling pity.
If you had paid more attention to the words and patterns on the first few layers, you might be able to find the answer.
After thinking about it, Mu Qingxue said, "How about we go to the floor below to take a look at the patterns and words."
"Maybe we can find a way to open this door and use the eight pattern marks."
Ye An shook his head slightly and said, "No, there is no need."
Mu Qingxue was surprised: "There's no need...?"
"Did you find a way to open the door?"
Obviously there is no clue about this situation. The only thing that is known about the pattern on the stone door is the sun totem.
Mu Qingxue couldn't help but feel confused.
"Maybe it's a gamble, but I think I can give it a try."
Ye An said.
"ha… ?"
The side of Mu Qingxue's face twitched slightly.
Immediately, Ye An took out the eight patterns he had obtained before and carefully stretched towards the eight-fold spiral ring.
