”Forget about that Du Gu Qingxiao of Qingxuan Sect. Now it seems that Zhang Moyan of Zhenhai Tower, Xuanzhi of Yunyin Temple, Dongfang Yuejian of Chenglongtian, Mu Yun and Ji Ye of Guangling Pavilion, and even that Duan Xiaoyu all have the qualifications to take on a role independently in the Xuanhuang Tower.”
”These people, these people actually… actually all willingly pave the way for Xu Taiping to ascend the tower?”
Inside the imperial palace of Southern Chu.
When seeing Xuanzhi display the powerful cultivation base of the Vajra Realm and Dongfang Yuejian use the technique of opening the sky with one stroke to strongly kill a ghost cultivator whose strength was almost equivalent to that of a cultivator in the Wangtian Realm, the Sword Immortal of Qionghua had a look of his face and said in a very unbelievable tone.
“Dongfang Yuejian, Zhang Moyan and the others have made great progress in their cultivation compared to when we first saw them at the Golden Scale Meeting a few years ago. Most of them… most of them are not inferior to the third child.”
The King of Chu nodded.
Although he was a little reluctant, the facts were in front of him and he had to admit it.
“Originally, I thought that these people were only following Xu Taiping because of their own lack of strength and the perception of profit. Now it seems that this is not the case at all.”
The old martial god Zhu Huai had a rather complicated expression and said with hesitation.
“The real reason why these proud sons of the five directions of the world are willing to follow him willingly is still his courage, courage and character.”
The King of Chu filled in the next sentence that the old martial god Zhu Huai wanted to say but didn’t.
For a while, the three of them fell silent together.
These things are all the qualities that a powerful warrior must possess.
And the profound meaning of this experience in the Mysterious Desolation Tower was known to the three of them a long time ago – to cast the divine soul for the cultivator and select the warrior for the human race.
“It was the Great Emperor who chose him.”
After a long time, Zhu Huai finally spoke.
While speaking, his eyes were fixed on Xu Taiping’s figure in the spirit mirror.
……
“Is that the Terrace of Ascension to Heaven?”
After a stick of incense, with the assistance of everyone, Xu Taiping, Gu Qingcheng, and the other five including Elder Zhang came to the Terrace of Ascension to Heaven together.
This Ascending to Heaven Terrace is located in the center of a huge open space in the middle of the entire Ghost Fang capital city. It looks very much like an astronomical observatory, but it is much more magnificent and huge.
The entire Ascending to Heaven Terrace not only occupies an area equivalent to that of a huge courtyard but also the steps leading to the top of the Ascending to Heaven Terrace are as many as several thousand steps.
Even more strangely, around the tall Ascending to Heaven Terrace, there are groups of black fog formed by ghosts and evil gods everywhere.
On the top of the Ascending to Heaven Terrace, there is even a black beam rushing straight into the sky.
From a distance, that black light column looks as if it connects the sky and the Ascending to Heaven Terrace as a whole.
Miss Qingcheng, is it true that as long as we climb the steps, the ghosts and evil gods in the black fog will wake up immediately?
Xu Taiping turned his head and looked at Gu Qingcheng beside him.
That’s right.” Gu Qingcheng nodded, and then pointed to the Ascending to Heaven Terrace entwined by the black fog and said, In the eyes of the Ghost Fang, this Ascending to Heaven Terrace is the place where the gods and there will be a steady stream of ghosts and yin bodies coming to this world through that black light column.
When saying these words, Gu Qingcheng’s face was full of worried expressions.
There is only one last step left to climb the twelfth floor. Even if those ghosts and evil gods will wake up immediately, we can’t stop here.
When Xu Taiping recalled the scene just now when his second senior brother and the others sacrificed themselves at all costs to send him to the Dengtian Terrace, his eyes immediately became extremely firm.
“Boom!”
Just at this time, several groups of black fog transformed by ghosts and flew to Xu Taiping and the others at the same time and took on the forms of a glamorous woman and two black-robed men.
“Zhai Mo, Nan Xing, Yu Zhu.”
Gu Qingcheng looked at Zhai Mo, Gongshu Nan Xing and Yu Zhu beside her.
The two immediately understood and stood together with Gu Qingcheng.
Then, Gu Qingcheng looked at Xu Taiping and said:
“Sir, please climb the tower!”
“Okay!” Xu Taiping nodded heavily upon hearing this.
Then he looked at Zhang Laodao beside him and said:
“Elder Zhang, please follow me next.”
“Don’t worry, sir. Before the Jing Shen Array is set up, this old man will die behind you even if he dies!”
Elder Zhang grinned at Xu Taiping.
The matter that the Jing Shen Array needs to be set up on the Dengyun Terrace in order to truly climb to the twelfth floor of the Xuanhuang Pagoda, he had already told Xu Taiping and the others.
Looking at the gray-haired old man in front of him and thinking of the situation he saw in Elder Zhang’s home when he wanders the Xuantian Realm that day, an inexplicable feeling of sadness welled up in Xu Taiping’s heart.
“Old Zhang, as long as I’m here, you won’t die.”
In the end, Xu Taiping just gave Old Zhang a faint smile, and then turned his head to look in the direction of the Ascension Terrace.
“Boom!”
Just at this moment, the enchanting woman and the two black-robed men attacked simultaneously, carrying an extremely violent momentum and killing towards Xu Taiping.
“Suppress!”
Just as the three ghost cultivators made their move, Gu Qingcheng, with her hair flying all over, first used blood instead of ink to write a mountain character in the air.
“Bang!——”
In an instant, a looming big mountain pressed above the three powerful ghost cultivators, causing their figures to pause.
“Shua!”
Almost at the same time, Gongshu Nanxing and Zhai Mo, with a flash of their figures, appeared beside the three ghost cultivators. With a knife and an axe, they slashed and killed towards them together.
“Bang!”
Having received a large number of inheritances from the Mysterious Wilderness Tower, Zhai Mo and Nanxing’s combat power had already increased several times. With one strike, they first defeated the three ghost cultivators.
“Boom!”
But before the three of them could catch their breath, three more ghost cultivators suddenly descended from the sky and simultaneously cast spells to kill towards Zhai Mo and Nanxing below.
“Bang!”
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Yu Zhu at the rear timely cast the Golden Bell Technique, covering a big bell made of spiritual power over the two of them, blocking this fierce blow from the three ghost cultivators for them.
“Zheng!”
After Yu Zhu blocked this blow for Zhai Mo and Nan Xing, Gu Qingcheng immediately took action. Once again, using his hand as a pen and blood as magic, he wrote a “sword” character, summoning hundreds of powerful flying swords to shoot towards the three ghost cultivators together.
“Peng!”
Accompanied by a loud noise, the bodies of the three ghost cultivators were blasted to pieces on the spot by these hundreds of flying swords.
At the same time, the ghost cultivators blocking the road leading to the Ascension Terrace were also temporarily cleared by these hundreds of flying swords.
“Young Master, ascend the tower!”
Seeing this, Gongshu Nan Xing and Zhai Mo turned around and looked at Xu Taiping and shouted loudly, with pleading and expectant expressions in their eyes.
“Young Master, the lives of thousands of people in Xuanhuang Heaven are all in your hands!”
Gu Qingcheng landed lightly with Yu Zhu and stood beside Zhai Mo and Nan Xing. Then, looking at Xu Taiping with extremely sincere eyes, he said.
Looking at these pairs of expectant eyes, Xu Taiping was slightly stunned for a moment, and then nodded heavily again and said:
“Definitely will not disappoint you all!”
After saying this, he pulled out the Thunder Soul Saber with a “clang”, then activated the Instant Teleportation Step, and his figure “whooshed” towards the direction of the Ascension Platform.
