C607 Altar
C607 Altar
The sky was still bright, and there were already quite a few people gathered at the foot of the mountain peak. They all stopped in their tracks and silently watched, not daring to advance. Moreover, there were still people constantly rushing over.
"That's the entrance to the Divine Tower."
In the corner of the crowd, Zhou Meng pointed at a small door at the foot of the mountain. The door gave off a simple and unadorned feeling, without any symbol, and other than that, the entire Divine Tower was covered by the entire mountain.
Zhang Yang didn't say anything, but raised his eyes and stared straight at him. His expression was slightly complicated, like he was recalling something from the past, like he was ridiculing himself, and at the same time, seemed to be laughing at himself.
Zhou Meng stood quietly beside him. She was still wearing the same black robe, even her top was pulled up, revealing only her two black eyes. She turned her head to look at Zhang Yang who was deep in thought and asked softly, "Brother, should we go in?"
"No!"
Zhou Meng didn't understand what was going on. Just as she was about to ask, a large group of people suddenly gathered behind her. The person in the lead was a scar-faced man with an extremely sturdy figure.
"Yi, boss, there was someone guarding that door for the past two days, why is there no one here today?"
Lia Shan said in a rough voice, "If you ask this daddy, then who should I ask? Why don't you ask those bastards?"
"Hehe, that's not what I meant. I'm talking about whether or not we should rush in?"
"What are you rushing for? Do you not have eyes? Why are you so anxious to be cannon fodder?"
When they saw Lia Shan appear, many of the leaders of the local forces walked over to greet him. It was obvious that they were gathered by Lia Shan and originally planned to attack the Divine Tower, but now that there were no guards at the entrance, everyone hesitated.
Everyone knew that not long ago, many people had secretly entered the Divine Tower, but none of them came out alive. Who knew what was going on inside.
However, being afraid doesn't mean that they will back off. How can they not take risks if they want to gain something? Many leaders of different forces gathered around Lia Shan to discuss countermeasures.
A long time later.
They seemed to have come to a conclusion, and ten sturdy men walked towards the door, ready to explore the way first and smash open the door of the Divine Tower before making their plans.
"The wind is blowing."
Zhang Yang said in confusion.
"What?"
Zhou Meng replied doubtfully. She felt that Zhang Yang was very different from before. However, she still subconsciously raised her head to look at the bright sky.
"Woo woo …"
Suddenly.
Like a ghostly howl, a light breeze suddenly blew from all directions. The wind was not strong, but it was still cold and unspeakably blowing against one's face.
It was already early in the morning, so no one paid much attention to the cool breeze. Moreover, there were many places in the sky filled with chaotic magnetic fields, so it was not strange at all.
However, almost in the next moment, this dense, cold wind instantly went berserk, and the ear-piercing whistling sound was like a sharp blade cutting through the air, causing the heaven and earth to turn a misty white color.
At this moment, everyone felt something strange, and the ten or so men that were walking forward quickly retreated. Everyone looked up at the white mist floating in the sky.
boom rumble rumble *
Just at this moment, a bolt of blazing white lightning struck down from the peak of the Divine Tower, surprising everyone. All of their expressions were grave, but no one retreated.
Finally, the torrential rain came down. No, it wasn't the rain, but a large patch of gray dust.
The surroundings were completely covered in dust, making it seem extremely strange. It was as if someone was raining down from the sky. It was even more dense than the torrential rain, and the visibility was less than a meter.
The sudden change in events made everyone feel strange and apprehensive. Although there were many mysterious events that occurred often in the Sinful City, this was still the first time they had seen such a situation.
Someone's heart suddenly jumped out from the yellow dust cloud. "This can't be the precursor to a magnetic field storm, right? If that's the case, then we …" No one will survive. "
The magnetic field storm was a disaster that no human expert could withstand. Even the third limit of domain level would be ripped to smithereens.
"Should... "No!" Someone responded with a trembling voice.
"All of you shut up, damn you, and say these unlucky words, I'll kill you with a single slap." Lia Shan's angry voice resounded in the surroundings.
"Brother, could what they said be true?"
Zhou Meng subconsciously took two steps closer. Her pair of black eyes were fixed on Zhang Yang who stood there without moving. Against the magnetic storm, even she would be able to safely retreat.
"Scared?" Zhang Yang replied with a faint smile.
"Nope, I'm very strong." Zhou Meng huffed, "But it feels really weird."
"This is just dust."
"But the white lightning on the mountain just now?"
"That's …"
Suddenly, Zhang Yang stopped and looked up. He saw that the yellow dust and dust floating in the air had stopped and the surroundings had regained their clarity. An extremely shocking thing had happened.
An incomparably majestic and tall Divine Tower appeared in everyone's sight.
When everyone saw this, they all held their breath, unable to believe their own eyes.
This Divine Tower was too vast, emitting a majestic aura. Although it was only at the tenth floor, it was more than a thousand meters tall, and it was filled with the vicissitudes of time, as though it had traveled through time and space.
Many people reacted instantly, revealing an expression of realization. The yellow dust cloud from earlier was actually the dust cloud on the entire mountain. But what made their hearts palpitate was that the power of the white lightning bolt had actually split the entire mountain into dust cloud.
"Is this the true face of the Divine Tower?" Someone shouted with a trembling voice.
"Look, the top of the tower …"
The top of the tower was completely surrounded by streaks of white lightning, as if it had some kind of indescribable power, and could actually freeze lightning for a moment. Then, the lightning disappeared, and was once again frozen, going through in order.
"That's not lightning, it's flowing symbols …"
Runes were an extremely profound field. Currently, there were very few people who understood this thing. Even though the vast majority of people here did not understand it, it did not mean that they had not heard of it before.
Secret Arts was higher than the Secret Skill, the secret technique was higher than the Secret Arts, and the runes belonged to a higher level realm, possessing many mystical abilities.
"Look, the door is open." Someone exclaimed again.
As he looked towards the source of the voice, he saw that the door, which had been tightly shut, was now opened on both sides. The inside was dark and blurry.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Many of them looked hesitant, but there were also many who were eager to give it a try.
"Everyone, charge! Who knows, there might be other precious treasures in there. If you're too late, you won't be able to get them."
"It's a skill to snatch the mutated energy, it's well-deserved if we can't steal it and die inside."
The four burly men encouraged him and rushed in.
With someone taking the lead, the surrounding people no longer hesitated. They swarmed towards the door at the bottom of the tower, afraid that if they were too slow, they would be snatched away by the others.
"Let's go in as well."
Zhang Yang walked ahead of everyone else, followed closely by Zhou Meng. However, she looked at Zhang Yang's back with a weird expression. For such a long time, she couldn't see through this man at all.
The moment the two of them entered the cave, Zhou Meng was once again astonished. She felt as if she had entered another space, and when she raised her head to take a look, she was instantly stupefied.
The first few hundred people to charge in all stood quietly on the ground, like statues, without a single sound. It was eerily frightening, like the deathly silence.
She subconsciously looked in that direction, causing her to freeze.
As far as the eyes could see, it was a vast expanse of white, a vast sea of bones.
Countless gigantic skeletons of unknown shapes stretched as far as the eye could see. There were bones that were at least three to five meters long and at least a dozen meters wide. Boundless white bones covered the ground in front of them.
A dense infernal energy permeated the entire bone sea, causing people to shudder in fear. Everything that happened before their eyes was completely out of everyone's expectations. It was so inconceivable that it caused them to feel deep fear.
"These are... the skeleton of the Heaven-changing Day monster … " Someone whispered.
Monsters were not that surprising, because everyone in this world knew the history of this type of monster that wreaked havoc in the human world. Some people had seen this in precious videos, but this was the first time they had seen such a large and densely packed skeleton.
There were countless well-preserved bones, and the white powder on the ground was more than a foot thick. From this, one could tell how many bones were needed to create such a situation.
The space here was also very strange. There was no warmth at all. The surroundings were deathly still without a single trace of wind. It seemed extremely strange and unspeakably terrifying.
"Look there …" Someone pointed to the depths of the sea of bones and cried out in alarm.
Looking in the direction he was looking, there was a huge altar. In the center of the altar stood a gigantic Milky White Light Column with a diameter of a hundred meters. On the surface of the pillar of light, there were faint tadpole shaped inscriptions slowly circulating.
Everyone's gaze turned towards the gigantic pillar of light. Even though it was far away, it still made them feel a shiver in their souls, as if an unfathomably gigantic and peerless Vicious Beast was locked inside. The terrifying pressure caused people's hearts to palpitate.
"Come, let's go take a look, this is only the first floor of the Divine Tower, we need to find a way up." Someone called out. Since they had already entered, there was nothing to be afraid of.
Endless amounts of bones covered the ground, and crunching sounds could be heard as they stepped on it. It sounded extremely creepy, as if an unknown amount of time had passed by, and many of the bones had already eroded and shattered. The ground was covered with a thick layer of snow-white shares, making the endless wreckage seem even more terrifying.
Every inch of the ground was white without any decorations. A heart palpitation filled the air. The deeper one went, the heavier the palpitations became.
Several hundred people were gathered together, slowly advancing forward. Soon after, they arrived near the enormous altar, and stopped here. It wasn't because they were afraid, but because a terrifying pressure made it difficult for them to take a step forward.
The hundred meter wide Milky White Light Column on the altar had no end in sight. Its surface flickered with a hazy light, and the runes on it flowed as if they were alive. They would even emit waves of mournful howls, like the howls of evil spirits.
Zhang Yang stood there quietly, squinting his eyes as he looked at the altar. The moment he entered, he already confirmed that the altar had been in operation for many years, and what made it difficult for him to understand was how this Confined Space could be activated without his own hands.
Yes, the Milky White Light Column s on the altar that were a hundred meters in diameter were Confined Space s that he himself had personally laid down all those years ago.
Nine Heavens and Ten Earth!
The purpose of this formation was not to attack or any other purpose, but to prevent future disasters. But now, it was actually activated. Moreover, there was a powerful aura inside that was beyond his expectations.
Who was it!?
Who activated the Confined Space, and who was imprisoned inside!
Was it the mysterious man, or was it the other black hand?
"Found the entrance to the upper level."
Suddenly, a voice rang out. There was a spiraling staircase not too far away from the altar. When a few bold people stepped onto it, another cry of surprise rang out.
"My perception is fading …"
"Me too …"
Amidst the exclamations, all of them retreated. Everything returned to normal, and a few people went up the stairs to try. They came to a conclusion, the perception and Spiritual Power were indeed slowly fading, but other than that, there were no other abnormalities.
Many people began to hesitate. Some people gritted their teeth as they stepped forward and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Big brother, are they alright?" Zhou Meng asked cautiously.
"I'm fine."
Zhang Yang answered calmly, "The lost Sensory Perception is only for this altar."
As he spoke, he took a look at the densely packed bones and sighed, "These large fellows were also refined for this altar, but they didn't expect …"
Zhou Meng bit her lips. Just as she was about to speak, a howl that seemed to come from hell suddenly rang out.
"Die!" All of you will die! "
Zhou Meng's expression changed and she couldn't help but take a few steps back. When she looked up, she found that Zhang Yang had already disappeared.
