out of place and unsettling."Young friend, what are your thoughts Feel free to share them." Elder Yuqing frowned and spoke.Lin Batian looked at Elder Yu Qing and smiled faintly, "It might be hurtful...The Great衍 Lamp is situated at a great height, below which lies the peak of a mountain. The middle section of this mountain is shrouded in white mist, concealing the view of its base.
On the summit of this mountain stands an ancient tower, its appearance somewhat dilapidated, a clear testament to the passage of time.
"What is this place"
Fang Yu was about to pinpoint their location.
At this moment, a black ray suddenly shot out from the tower!
The next moment, Fang Yu's connection with the Dayan Lamp was severed!
Fang Yu's expression changed slightly, his eyes turning cold.
The Dà Yǎn lamp and he were connected by an extremely subtle thread of divine consciousness, incredibly hidden and rarely detected, let alone severed directly!
It's clear that there exists, within that tower, at least one cultivator with extremely powerful sensing abilities.
Whether the cultivators are remnants of the Ziyán Palace is difficult to determine.
But the Great Evolution Lantern did indeed find this location through the aura on Xiao Chen's body!
Fang Yu stopped his steps.
"What's wrong" Lin Batang turned his head to look at Fang Yu.
"The connection between the Great Derivation Lamp and me was forcefully severed," Fang Yu said.
"Ah!" Lin Batian was taken aback, then his eyes narrowed as he asked, "Is it the Ziyan Palace... "
"We'll know for sure once we get there," Fang Yu said.
“Then let’s go now, what are we waiting for” Lin Batten said.
"Before I could lock onto its position, the connection was severed. I only caught a glimpse of the area," Fang Yu frowned. "But the Dayan Lantern didn't leave for long. It should still be in Dongdu."
"Having said that, Fang Yu looked at Yan Qianning and asked, "On top of a mountain, there is an old dilapidated tower. Have you ever heard of this place"
Yán Qiānníng was taken aback for a moment, then she realized that Fāng Yǔ was asking her.
"The tower on top of the mountain..." Yan Qianning fell into thought.
At this moment, Ke'er, who was standing beside him, said excitedly: "I know! Isn't this the legendary Dongdu Forbidden Zone, Gu Yao Tower!"
Hearing this name, Yan Qianning also thought of it.
This ancient demon tower, classified as a forbidden zone by the Eastern Capital Martial Arts Association, is located at the summit of Mount Tongshan, the main peak in the northern mountains of Eastern Capital!
Even a hundred years ago, the Ancient Demon Tower was classified as a forbidden zone by the Martial Arts Association. Furthermore, with its main peak towering high and its terrain being extremely treacherous, climbing to the top was quite difficult.
Therefore, for many years, no one has ever dared to touch this forbidden place.
According to Fang Yu's description, the place he mentioned is very likely the ancient demon tower!
"Forbidden zone Why is this place considered a forbidden zone" Fang Yu asked.
"I know that too!" Ka'er, quite familiar with such strange tales, exclaimed. "It is said that the Gu Yao Tower was a powerful artifact from an ancient being, and it holds captive a demon who has survived since prehistoric times!"
The Martial Arts Association made the Ancient Demon Tower a forbidden zone because a long time ago, many warriors believed that there were countless treasures hidden inside the tower and flocked to the mountain to enter it, hoping to get a share. However, after these people entered the tower, they never came down and simply disappeared.
Due to the disappearances of many people, the Martial Arts Association sent a team of ten Martial Saints and fifty Martial Lords up the mountain to search for them. They wanted to see what was strange about this tower.
Having reached this point, Ke'er paused with the skill of a storyteller, and asked, "You only know what happened later..."
"Knowing that, it's just that this team has disappeared." Lin Batang interrupted Ke'er and said.
"No, you're wrong. That group of people didn't disappear." Ke'er smiled and said, "They climbed to the peak of Mount Tongshan and didn't see the tower at all!"
Lin Batian's eyebrows shot up.
This was quite a surprise to him.
"After this exploration failed, the Martial Arts Association remained silent for a while. Over time, there were greedy warriors who went up the mountain again, and these warriors disappeared!" Ke'er continued, "Afterwards, the Martial Arts Association sent the same team up the mountain again, but they still didn't see that tower!"
"That means...when there are a lot of people, the tower disappears automatically. When there are fewer people, the tower appears and takes those people..." Yang Chuyu on the side said with a look of horror.
"Yes, actually there's another way to put it...that is, everyone who sees this tower dies." Kaer said in a cold voice.
This sentence rendered a terrifying atmosphere. Yang Chuyu was frightened by Ke'er's pretended gloomy expression and unconsciously leaned towards Fang Yu beside her.
"There are some holes in your story," Fang Yu said. "If everyone who saw the tower is dead, how can you be sure there's a tower on the mountain"
“That…” Ke’er scratched her head, saying with no confidence, “I don’t know about that… These are just legends, but the ancient demon tower does exist. And didn’t you just say you saw a tower on top of the mountain”
Fang Yu thought for a moment and asked, "Is the Ancient Demon Tower on Tongshan's main peak"
"Mm." Ke'er nodded.
Fang Yu looked at Lin Batian and said, "Go take a trip. The Dayan Lamp can't just be lost like this."
"No problem." Lin Batian nodded.
Fang Yu looked at Qin Lang and said, "After this, you just do your own thing, don't worry about us."
"Understood, Mr. Fang," Qin Lang said.
Fang Yu and Lin Batian walked aside.
"Friend Yan, I'll be right back. Let's discuss the uses of Moon Soul Grass after that." Lin Batian said with a smile.
"...Okay." Yan Qianning replied.
Fang Yu took out his phone and used the map to check the location of Tongshan Mountain Range.
After locking his position, he activated the Void Spirit Ring. The ring on his right index finger emitted a burst of light.
"Fang, Master Fang, can you give me your contact information" Yang Chu Yu suddenly blushed and spoke.
Fang Yu was taken aback, then said: "Ask Qin Lang for it."
"Okay!" Yang Chuyu replied.
The next second, strong light emanated from Fang Yu and Lin Batian's bodies, and the two disappeared.
Yann Qianning and others stood there, their faces full of shock.
Fang Yu and Lin Batian, it seems, could do anything. They were like gods.
……
The Tongshan mountain range, located in the north of Dongdu, is one of the few pristine areas in Dongdu and has never been developed.
The terrain here is particularly rugged, with no place suitable for human habitation, and even animals are scarce.
Fang Yu and Lin Batten appeared at the foot of the main peak.
There was a silence all around, broken only by the gentle rustle of the wind.
The vegetation here is not abundant either, and the ground is mostly yellowish-brown and black stone.
"Why not send it straight to the mountaintop" Lin Batian asked.
"I forgot how high the main peak is, but it shouldn't be more than three thousand meters. Let's just fly straight up." Fang Yu said.
"Alright, how about a competition" Lin Batian said, "Whoever flies to the top of the mountain first wins, and afterwards they can ask the other person to do anything."
Fan Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "Sure."
"Bang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Yu's figure shot up like a rocket, the ground beneath his feet cracking from the force of his kick!
"Damn it!"
Lin Batai cursed under his breath, true energy erupted from his body, and he surged upwards into the sky.
Both of their speeds had approached the speed of sound.
In a matter of seconds, it soared over a layer of white mist on the mountainside and continued to surge upward.
It seems I'll have to use some martial arts. Lin Baitai trailed Fang Yu by about fifty meters.
At that moment, he fanned downwards with the paper fan in his hand.
"Boom!"
A fierce wind swept through, and the powerful thrust caused his speed to surge again!
"Whoosh!"
In just four seconds, Lin Batian overtook Fang Yu and reached the summit.
Fang Yu arrived at the summit a second later.
“I won,” Lin Batian said with a smirk, “You have to do anything for me…”
Noticing Fang Yu's expression, Lin Batten also turned his head and looked forward, his face slightly changed.
In front, there was nothing but a mountain peak, its summit covered in a white expanse of snow. the hearts of many cultivators settled."There are three more demons like this one within the imperial family's realm. We... must go to the imperial family's realm immediately." Ling Zhen commanded.No...
