Chapter 414 Unsolved Mysteries
Finally, Zhou Xuan returned to the Demon Suppression Tower.
The Demon Suppressing Tower is the foundation of the Demon Suppressing Academy and has a longer history than the Demon Suppressing Academy.
So far, no one knows the origin of the Demon Suppression Tower.
Three thousand years ago, when the Demon Suppression Academy was established, the Demon Suppression Tower stood here.
The Demon Suppression Tower has nine floors in total. The higher you go, the higher the level.
Now, Zhou Xuan can freely enter and leave the first to eighth floors of the Demon Suppression Tower.
He knew that in the eighth floor of the Demon Suppression Tower, there were even eight-star and nine-star demon kings from the mythical realm.
However, the number is not too much. The eight-star demon king in the mythical realm has three heads, and the nine-star demon king in the mythical realm has one.
This is the foundation of the Demon Suppressing Tower. If the Demon Suppressing Academy is in disaster, the top demon king inside will definitely be released.
As for the ninth floor, Zhou Xuan has not been there yet.
Not to mention that he has never been there, not even Jiang Tao, the dean of Demon Suppression Academy, has been there.
The Demon Suppression Academy has regulations that if you are not at the demigod level, you will never be able to reach the ninth level.
Jiang Tao, the current dean of the Demon Suppression Academy, and Shi Bin, the great elder, are both eight-star experts in the mythical realm, and are still far away from the demigod realm.
Ding Yuan, the previous dean of the Demon Suppression Academy, was once a nine-star expert in the Mythical Realm. Even he didn't get past the ninth floor.
Nowadays, the only nine-star experts in the Myth Realm of Demon Suppression Academy are Xiang Dongliu, the previous dean, and Qu Fu, the previous great elder.
The two of them are the strongest people in Demon Suppression Academy now, and they also have the biggest trump card.
Xiang Dongliu and Qu Fu have been practicing in seclusion in the Holy Courtyard. It has never come out in the past hundred years.
Even though Zhou Xuan had joined the Demon Suppression Academy for decades, he had never seen their true faces.
At that time, when Ding Yuan had not died, he asked the two of them to go into seclusion and strive to break through to the demigod realm.
They are younger than Ding Yuan and have a better chance of reaching the demigod realm.
It's just that a hundred years have passed and Ding Yuan has died, but there is still no good news from their side.
But even so, Jiang Tao and Shi Bin did not dare to disturb those two people.
Zhou Xuan looked at the ninth floor of the Demon Suppression Tower and was very curious as to what level of monsters were imprisoned inside.
Is he a demigod-level demon king or a true god-level demon king?
"If it's a true god level, it's unlikely. It's probably a demigod level demon king." Zhou Xuan guessed.
However, he was just guessing and not sure.
Zhou Xuan went to the library again to check information related to the Demon Suppression Tower. However, the information is limited and there are no records related to the ninth level.
He also tried to enter the ninth floor quietly, but the pressure there was too great and he couldn't get close at all, let alone enter.
He has seen the pressure of the nine-star monks in the mythical realm, but the pressure emanating from the ninth level is much stronger than that of the nine-star monks in the mythical realm.
He tried many times but failed.
Finally, he found the great elder Shi Bin.
The two drank tea and talked about the Demon Suppression Tower.
"Great Elder, do you know what level of monsters are imprisoned on the ninth floor of the Demon Suppression Tower?"
Shi Bin originally wanted to drink tea, but when he heard Zhou Xuan's words, he couldn't help but put down the tea cup and his expression became serious.
"Why do you suddenly ask this question? You don't want to go to the ninth floor, do you?"
Zhou Xuan explained: "I'm just curious. I want to go to the ninth floor, but I can't go up now. The pressure there is too strong."
Shi Bin was stunned: "So, you really tried it."
Zhou Xuan smiled, acquiescing.
Shi Bin looked serious: "You are so brave, you actually want to go to the ninth floor."
Zhou Xuan took a sip of tea and said, "Isn't this a failure?"
Shi Bin warned seriously: "You are still young and have a bright future. Don't do that stupid thing. The ninth floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower, not to mention us, even the nine-star experts from the Mythical Realm can't go up. This is The rules of the Demon Suppression Academy.”
Zhou Xuan nodded: "I know. That's why I'm curious about what monsters are there?"
Shi Bin picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and then said: "Since you are so curious, let me tell you that the demon king in the demigod realm is suppressed in the ninth floor."
Zhou Xuan suddenly said: "It is indeed so."
Shi Bin continued: "But, I want to tell you that the demon king inside already existed before the Demon Suppression Academy was established."
Zhou Xuan was stunned: "How is it possible that creatures in the demigod realm can only live up to 1,500 years old? The Demon Suppression Academy was established three thousand years ago. Doesn't that mean that the demon king in the ninth level is over three thousand years old. "
Shi Bin nodded: "Yes, they did live for more than three thousand years."
Zhou Xuan was surprised: "Is he so powerful?"
Shi Bin explained: "Before, the true god realm experts from our Demon Suppression Academy entered the ninth floor and found that there were three demigod realm demon kings inside. For three thousand years, there were only those three demon kings inside. Those three demon kings It was not captured by the strong men of our academy, it existed originally. It seems that this demon-suppressing tower is specifically designed to suppress the three-headed demigod demon king."
Zhou Xuan became more and more surprised: "It's actually like this."
Shi Bin continued: "They only have the cultivation level of the semi-god realm, but they can live for more than three thousand years without dying, which proves that they are extraordinary. In the past, the true god realm experts in my college guessed that the three-headed demon king and Just like the Demon Suppressing Tower, it has a great background. Therefore, in the past three thousand years, our Demon Suppressing Academy has not touched the three-headed demon king."
After hearing this, Zhou Xuan couldn't help but frown: "If that's the case, then you haven't asked about their origins?"
Shi Bin sighed: "They have been sleeping and rarely wake up. In the past, some powerful people in the True God Realm have awakened them. However, their memories are vague, and even they themselves do not know that they have interacted with each other. What’s your name, where are you from.”
Zhou Xuan became more and more puzzled: "It's so strange."
Shi Bin nodded: "It's indeed strange. Logically speaking, they are only in the realm of demigods, and they were suppressed in the tower. They should have died long ago. However, they are not dead. Also, they were suppressed in the tower by someone, Why not just kill them?"
There are indeed many mysteries surrounding the Demon Suppression Tower and the three-headed demigod demon king on the ninth floor.
Even the true god realm experts from the Demon Suppressing Academy were trying to solve the mystery.
However, no matter how hard we trace it, we can't find it out.
When Shi Bin was young, he was as curious as Zhou Xuan.
He also personally checked various information and ancient books, trying to find something.
However, in the end, the mystery could not be solved.
In the end, he could only give up.
Until now, the origin of the Demon Suppression Tower and the origin of the three-headed demon king suppressed in the ninth floor have been a mystery.
Shi Bin took a sip of tea and said: "This is just like history. About five thousand years ago, the earth ushered in the era of spiritual energy recovery, all things began to evolve, and the human race awakened to the star soul. As for why the spiritual energy revived, specifically The reasons are still debated."
Zhou Xuan has considered this issue and checked relevant information. There are indeed many opinions on the reasons for the resurgence of spiritual energy.
There is a saying that the changes in the rules of heaven and earth lead to the revival of spiritual energy.
This is the most common statement.
But if we dig deeper, new questions will arise.
Why do the rules of heaven and earth suddenly change?
Is it unintentional or intentional?
Is it a natural change or a passive change?
Spiritual energy revived, star power poured in, and the earth underwent earth-shaking changes.
Especially more than three thousand years ago, it was a great era and the most glorious period.
During that period, the human race, demon race, and sea race were extremely powerful, and there were countless strong men in the true god realm.
In that era, it was also the easiest to become a god.
But this kind of glory and strength only lasted for a thousand years.
Slowly, fewer and fewer people become gods.
Until now, no one can become a true god.
Shi Bin said: "Thousands of years ago, there was an unparalleled genius who became the last god. He was the strong man who created the method of watering. He was the last genius on earth and the last true god. After he became a god, no one else could become a god."
Zhou Xuan had read relevant information and knew that the man was really powerful.
The watering method created by the other party is a god-level skill, which is indeed amazing.
Now Zhou Xuan is able to grow rapidly by relying on the method of watering.
Of course, the watering method practiced by Zhou Xuan was deduced and was not a god-level method. It had reached the super-god level and was far more powerful than the original one.
After Shi Bin finished speaking, he took another sip of tea, looked at Zhou Xuan, and continued: "Now, the road to becoming a god has been cut off, and demigods are the top combat power. But even demigods are extremely difficult to break through. I'll wait. There is no hope of breaking through to the demigod realm, you have to grow up quickly. You are my greatest hope in Eastern Kyushu, and you are the one who has the most hope of breaking through to the demigod realm."
Zhou Xuan picked up the teapot and filled it with Shi Bin.
Then, he said: "Great Elder, until the last moment, everything is possible. You and the dean still have more than a hundred years to live, so you will not despair. Maybe you can also step into the demigod realm. .”
Shi Bin smiled hoarsely: "Oh, forget it, I don't want to go to the demigod realm. It would be good if I could break through to the nine stars of the mythical realm."
Zhou Xuan and the Great Elder Shi Bin talked a lot about history and the future.
For the next period of time, Zhou Xuan concentrated on practicing in the Demon Suppressing Tower.
Outside, the war continues.
Zhou Xuan deployed several powerful magic circles, causing the Hai Clan to suffer heavy losses.
However, the Sea Clan did not give up and was still attacking the Eastern Continent, the Western World and the Monster Clan.
They couldn't break through the Zhoutian Xingdou Formation and the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation, so they opened up a new front and attacked the three major forces from other directions.
Attacking from other fronts would be even more detrimental to the Sea Clan.
But, they don't care.
They have a profound knowledge of the sea clan and many sea monsters, so they are not afraid of losses at all.
However, with the magic circle arranged by Zhou Xuan, the war between the human race and the demon race became much easier, and the pressure they endured was reduced a lot.
The Sea Clan attacks the three major forces every day, but they cannot defeat them for a while.
Such a war may last for decades or even hundreds of years.
As spring goes and autumn comes, there is no time to practice.
It seemed like just a moment, but it was already ten years after Zhou Xuan came out of the Demon Suppression Tower.
In ten years, Zhou Xuan made another breakthrough in his cultivation and reached the Seven Stars of Mythical Realm.
In the eyes of outsiders, Zhou Xuan had been in seclusion for ten years.
However, he has actually spent a hundred years in the Demon Suppression Tower.
Because he once got a time acceleration rune by signing in, and after using that rune, the training time will be longer.
In the past ten years, the war between the three major forces of the Eastern Continent, the Western World, the Monster Clan and the Sea Clan has become increasingly fierce.
This is mainly reflected in the confrontation between top players.
In the past ten years, countless battles have been fought between the seven-star, eight-star, and nine-star experts in the Mythical Realm.
There are no strong people in the demigod realm, and those at that level are the strongest.
The confrontation between the top experts was extremely brutal, with many people dying and others being injured. It was very tragic.
Before Zhou Xuan went into seclusion, the last person he met was Great Elder Shi Bin.
After he came out of seclusion, the great elder Shi Bin had already died in the battle.
Shi Bin died in the South China Sea and in the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation.
At that time, the Siren King headed by Dragon Turtle attacked the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation.
In that battle, the Sea Clan gathered nine nine-star experts from the mythical realm, and there were even countless sea monsters from other realms.
They forcefully entered the Nine-Meander Yellow River Formation in an attempt to destroy the formation in one fell swoop.
In that battle, Dean Jiang Tao and Great Elder Shi Bin both went to participate.
Even the previous dean Xiang Dongliu and the previous great elder Qu Fu, who had been practicing in seclusion in the Holy Academy for hundreds of years, left the seclusion to guard the Nine-bend Yellow River Formation in the South China Sea.
The two of them were from the Nine Stars of the Myth Realm, and they had a fierce battle with the Demon King of the Sea Clan in the formation.
That battle was the most brutal battle that Eastern Kyushu had experienced in the past hundred years.
Many people who participated in the battle died in the formation.
Shi Bin, the great elder of the Eight Stars of the Mythical Realm, died in the battle, and Xiang Dongliu, the previous dean of the Nine Stars of the Mythological Realm, also died in the battle.
A total of eight powerful men from the Nine Stars of Myth Realm from Eastern Kyushu participated in the battle, and four of them died in the battle.
Fortunately, with the help of the Nine-Meandering Yellow River Formation, Dongfang Jiuzhou strongly blocked the Hai Clan's attack.
In this battle, a total of nine Sea Monster Kings from the Mythical Realm and Nine Stars from the Sea Clan participated.
However, seven of them were killed in the end.
Only the Dragon Turtle and another Siren King escaped back to the deep sea.
In this battle, the human race killed four nine-star experts from the mythical realm.
However, it also successfully blocked the Hai Clan's attack.
Without the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation, the consequences would be unimaginable.
In this battle, Eastern Kyushu suffered heavy losses.
However, the Hai Clan suffered even more heavy losses.
Seven mythical nine-star Siren Kings died in one fell swoop, which was definitely not a small number.
Dragon Turtle swore that he could break the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation.
In the end, it still failed.
Dragon Turtle was also seriously injured and dying. After escaping back to the deep sea, he has been in seclusion without any news.
That battle allowed the world to witness the power of the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation, and also allowed the world to witness the determination of Eastern Kyushu to resist the Hai Clan.
That battle shocked everyone.
Although Zhou Xuan himself did not participate in that battle.
However, his doppelganger participated.
His clone has been responsible for guarding the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation and played a key role in it.
It was his clone who battled wits and courage with the Dragon Turtle in the formation, ensuring that the formation would not be broken by the Dragon Turtle.
It's a pity that after he came out, he could never see the Great Elder Shi Bin again.
Zhou Xuan came to the monument and saw the name of the great elder Shi Bin and the heroes who died in that battle.
