Looking at the trembling fragments in his hand, Su Shi was momentarily stunned. These fragments were given to him by Yu Hongyin, and they were a part of the lost Nine Ancient Bell.
Now, feeling such a strong resonance, there was only one reason: the other scattered fragments were here!
Su Shi looked up at the dark building not far away. “It seems that it should be inside this black tower.”
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected harvest?
Su Shi glanced at Wang Que; this inferior clan member had repeatedly brought him surprises. Facing Su Shi’s gaze, Wang Que lowered his head in shame.
The other had saved his life multiple times and even risked himself in front of the savage beast just now. Such great kindness deserved to be repaid, yet he had kept something hidden from him. Although there were reasons behind it, Wang Que still felt guilty.
At this moment, Su Shi asked, “Tell me in detail. What is this black tower, and how did you know about this place?”Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com
Wang Que explained, “Actually, it’s an accident... It started three months ago.”
At that time, Wang Que was forcibly captured and treated as a slave to be sold. He was unwilling to endure the humiliation and fought back, but it ended in failure. He was thrown directly into the Death Ground of Black Absolute.
According to common sense, a weak and powerless tribe entering the Death Ground of Black Absolute would undoubtedly die and become food for ferocious beasts.
However, Wang Que didn’t give up.
Conveniently, there was a corpse of a savage beast nearby. He dug a deep pit in the ground and hid inside, covering himself with the corpse, trying to conceal his scent as much as possible. Surprisingly, he managed to survive the night.
The next morning, as he prepared to leave, he found the black miniature tower in the mouth of the savage beast.
“At first, no matter how I tried, there was no response. I thought it was just an ordinary sculpture. But when my own blood accidentally dripped on it, the black tower emitted a faint light, and at the same time, a route naturally appeared in my mind.”
“Following the route in my mind, I encountered no danger along the way and arrived deep in this dense forest.”
Listening to Wang Que’s narration, Su Shi frowned slightly. Everything seemed too coincidental, as if it was meticulously prepared for him.
Could this be the fate of a destined character?
“So, what exactly is inside that black tower?” Su Shi asked.
Wang Que shook his head, “I don’t know either.”
“Don’t know?”
Facing Su Shi’s puzzled gaze, Wang Que scratched his head and said, “Actually, this is my second time here...”
Su Shi circled around the black tower, but he couldn’t find any entrance, not even a gap in the door.
“No entrance?”
“Brother Su Shi, look at this!”
At this moment, Yu Ren’er’s voice sounded.
Su Shi heard the sound and looked over.
Only to see a small groove in the middle of the south-facing wall, like a keyhole. Su Shi thought for a moment and picked up the black small tower, inserting it into the groove.
Crack. With a soft sound, the black small tower entered the groove and merged seamlessly with the black tower. In the next moment, the wall lit up with a flickering light, and a beam of light appeared from top to bottom. Amidst the rumbling vibration, two large doors slowly opened.
Inside the door, there was a mist, making it difficult to see what was inside.
Su Shi pondered for a moment and said, “I’ll go in first, wait for me outside.”
“No, I want to go in with Brother,” Yu Ren’er insisted, pulling him.
Who knew what dangers might be inside the black tower? Although her strength was not as good as Su Shi’s, they could at least take care of each other.
Su Shi couldn’t persuade her, so he had to hold her hand and walk in together.
Watching the two figures disappear into the mist, Wang Que stood still and hesitated.
He had a good idea of his own strength. This time coming to the Deathland, he just wanted to cultivate here with the dense spiritual energy for a period of time. He planned to enter the black tower after reaching the Golden Core stage.
“With my talent, even in this place with dense spiritual energy, I don’t know when I will break through.”
“Rather than waiting indefinitely...”
Thinking of the humiliations he had suffered before, Wang Que clenched his fists.
No one could protect him forever.
If he wanted to live with dignity, the only way was to become stronger, so strong that no one would dare to bully him again!
“It’s no big deal to die once, anyway, I’m not the Son of Heaven, I’m as good as dead!”
Wang Que stepped into the black tower with determination. Just as he entered, the door slowly closed, the light disappeared, leaving no trace. At the same time, behind the window of the first floor, a faint figure seemed to flash by.
