Chapter 1835
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Zheng slowly opened his eyes.
After this emergency rest, his injuries have completely stabilized. As long as he continues to recover slowly, he will recover soon.
The elixir of the Blue Medicine Sect is really good, and it works quickly and has extraordinary effects. I don’t know where they have gone. Will the other party hate me? If it weren’t for me, the other party would have been able to hold on for a longer time.
However, except for the death of a sect leader, the other party’s own losses are very small, and those foreign aids have suffered great losses.
Shaking his head, he threw away the inexplicable thoughts in his mind. He didn’t know where the other party was now, and he was afraid that he would never see it again.
“Huh? What is that?”
Gu Zheng stood up from the ground and saw something not far in front of him in a blink of an eye.
To be honest, it was too conspicuous, but Gu Zheng didn’t pay attention to it just now, and he saw it as soon as he stood up.
In the sky in the distance, there was a black tower that was ten feet high, wide at the top and wide at the bottom, and it seemed to be no different from the ordinary tower outside.
But if you look closely, each layer is carved with rare treasures, densely packed on the tower, each one looks lifelike, but they look almost the same as the ghosts that Gu Zheng saw between the layers. The only difference is that each ghost has its own weapon in its hand, as if guarding this place, with a look of keeping strangers away.
And around the black tower, each layer is floating with a golden jade, and a layer of golden light is connected to the corresponding floor from above.
Gu Zheng can see clearly that all those golden jades are core golden jades, as if all the golden jades are concentrated.
And at the bottom, a core golden jade with green light is also floating in the air.
Gu Zheng looked around, and it was quiet all around, without anyone, but how did this thing suddenly appear here.
He didn't take it rashly. Just as Gu Zheng was thinking, the sky was filled with golden light without any signs, and then gathered in the air, and a familiar woman in golden clothes appeared in front of Gu Zheng.
"Did you put this here?" Gu Zheng couldn't help asking.
From there, he could feel a familiar breath, which seemed to be the control here.
"Mission, transfer!"
The woman in gold looked at Gu Zheng expressionlessly, and there was no light in her eyes, making people feel more like a puppet.
"Miss, can you explain it in detail?" Gu Zheng was confused and didn't understand what the other party was saying. After thinking for a while, he asked.
The woman in gold looked at Gu Zheng, still saying those words, and some new words popped out, but Gu Zheng still didn't understand.
The woman in gold looked at Gu Zheng, and seemed to not understand. Finally, she became anxious, and then raised her hand and stretched out a green jade finger, pointing at the air. A small golden ball appeared in the air, slowly floating towards Gu Zheng, and finally appeared in front of him.
Gu Zheng looked at the golden ball in front of him, and then looked at the woman in gold, but the other party still had no expression, and he couldn't see what the other party meant.
But from this point of view, there should be some information in it.
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng also stretched out his finger and pointed it up.
As soon as he touched the golden ball, it turned into golden light and fell on Gu Zheng's body, making his body stunned.
It does contain the other party's intention, but this golden ball seems small, but there is a lot of information inside, not only the other party's intention, but also some explanations of the tower in front of him.
After a long time, Gu Zheng slowly put down his arms, even closed his eyes, and quietly thought about the information in it.
This black tower does not belong here at all. It was thrown out from somewhere, and the most important spirit of the weapon was left there, resulting in the black tower's strength being less than half.
Only half of it has trapped countless people in it and can't get out. It can be seen that if it is a real complete version, it would be even more terrifying.
At first, those people were pulled in and the last trace of life of the other party was taken away because of the tower's instinctive behavior. After all, this tower also needs to maintain its own operation. It is different from other magic weapons. It cannot absorb the spiritual energy of the outside world, but can only absorb special ones to keep itself from falling into sleep.
Although it doesn't need much, the idea born in this black tower is also the golden-clothed woman in front of her, who randomly captures wandering people from the outside and extracts their life to maintain operation.
But the black tower itself does not seem to be an evil thing. Even if everything inside is weird, it still changes a little bit to give those people an exit.
Although only a few people successfully leave, it still gives them hope.
But this is just a trace of the black tower's will. To put it bluntly, it is to prevent the black tower from falling asleep. The will that is forced out cannot develop into a weapon spirit at all.
The problem is that this black tower is mostly unable to resist the rules inside without anyone controlling it. However, in order to modify some of the difficulties inside, there are inevitably some loopholes, which were then found by the black cat and the demon fox.
They actually found the hidden core gold and jade alive.
The two of them are both heirs, but it is unknown who is the heir.
After a battle, the demon fox finally took the initiative, but the black cat was unwilling to give up.
After having the core gold jade, it is basically considered a part of the owner of the black tower, but that's all. After all, the weapon spirit occupies the vast majority. Even if the fox demon's plan succeeds, she only gets half of the ownership. But without the weapon spirit, it is no different from belonging to her. The only difference is that she can only use it and cannot refine it into herself. The real core is not here, and she can't go deeper with her level.
The fox demon began to intercept part of the consumption of the black tower. Of course, she didn't dare to intercept it all. She couldn't get anything without the energy of the black tower, and then suppressed this trace of thought.
After all, thoughts are simply unkillable.
But the fox demon found another way and thought of an alternative way. If she wanted to make herself the weapon spirit here, she would completely integrate into it. Anyway, this method is better for the fox demon. She is the black tower and the black tower is her.
After a period of time, even if there was some interference from the black cat, she successfully integrated part of it, which completely changed some terrain. At the same time, in order to make these people go out less to exploit them, the exit of the second floor was changed.
The black cat was messing around, leaving a way out, a passage leading to the inside of the black tower, and guiding those people in it, wanting to defeat the demon fox and occupy it.
However, although the thought was suppressed, it could still do something. The candlelight in the sky was created by it, and the crystals were to restrain the ghosts controlled by the demon fox. The original intention was to let people enter and drive the demon fox out.
Of course, it couldn't understand that if the other party drove the demon fox out, would the other party occupy the demon fox's position, so there was the current scene.
It wanted to return to its original position, it wanted the weapon spirit to come back, but it had to leave this place.
It didn't know where that place was, so it asked for help from the person who drove away the demon fox.
Perhaps in its heart, it couldn't tell good from bad, but just thought that the other party drove away the demon fox, so he was a good person, especially the other party's human identity, which made it feel safer. At least it would not trust those demon souls, and then it was ready to hand over all the control of the black tower.
But there was a prerequisite, that is, Gu Zheng agreed to its request.
Gu Zheng looked at the golden-dressed woman standing still, and sighed in his heart.
It turns out that there are such stupid people in the world, no, stupid magic weapons.
The other party's request is so simple, that is, to ensure that the other party returns the black tower to its original position, because the spirit of the weapon is still there. As for where it is, the black tower will only react after it is close to a certain distance.
In the meantime, the black tower will try its best to help him. As for the energy consumption, that is not its concern.
Of course, the black tower can't think that this is just a verbal recognition and can't be a constraint at all.
For example, after Gu Zheng agreed, he turned his hand over to the scholar demon fox, and the other party couldn't do anything to Gu Zheng, because at that time, the black tower had fallen into his hands.
Even if it can't be refined and can only be used, it can't be blocked by the other party's thought that knows nothing.
In other words, the control of the black tower belongs to him, and he can do whatever he wants. Even if the power is much smaller, it is still a great help.
To be honest, Gu Zheng was also very tempted at the beginning. Even if he only had the control right, it would be incredible. For example, the treasure gourd in his hand, although it was not very useful, it helped him a lot in the early stage. To put it bluntly, without it, he might not be able to survive in the early stage.
But when he thought of his opponent, Gu Zheng finally shook his head.
Who made him a good person?
He would not say that even if he took the black tower, he would not have much chance of winning against the opponent. With ordinary strength, he could barely survive for a while.
So Gu Zheng finally accepted it.
"I promise you that if I can return to the prehistoric world, I will try my best to help you go back, but the time is not good. After all, you don't know the location, so it depends on fate." Gu Zheng said to the golden-clothed woman in front of him.
The expressionless golden-clothed woman also showed a slight surprise at this time, nodded at Gu Zheng, and then turned around and disappeared in front of Gu Zheng.
As for the method, Gu Zheng already knew it, and she was not very useful.
Now she completely trusts Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng waited until the other party disappeared, then walked forward and came to the black tower.
As for Wu Fan's words of caution, it was probably the fox in the depths that had set them up. Nine true and one false, the most terrifying. If the other party had not helped him several times in succession, he would probably have believed the other party's words.
This black tower has a total of nine floors, which was not beyond his expectations.
Nine is the extreme number. If there are more, it will be a low level and not at all mainstream.
With the death of the black cat and the fox, the core gold and jade they possessed were also exposed together. Even the three that were opened before returned to their own area. If the black cat had the patience to go back and look for them, perhaps it would not have been defeated so quickly.
Gu Zheng took the lead in picking up the core gold and jade with green light. Even if he controlled the other party, it was not so simple. He had to control these core gold and jade first.
This core did not go in first to refine and integrate. This belongs to the first floor, which is also the area under his feet. It is responsible for leaving.
Pick up the top one from the tower first, and then start to practice carefully according to the method the woman in gold told him.
The ritual was simple, and in just one day, the core gold jade was successfully completed. The next step was to integrate the core into the tower. Only in this way could the inner layer be completely controlled.
The order was disrupted by that thought before, so there is no need for such trouble, but it is impossible to completely control the area.
The core gold jade that had been refined was carefully placed next to the top floor of the black tower, where it was just now, and a golden light connected it to the black tower again.
Gu Zheng immediately closed his eyes, followed this connection, and let the energy of the core gold and jade be injected into it.
The top is a layer of high mountains, with numerous peaks inside, mixed with many palaces. It looks very familiar, and after just a moment's thought, Gu Zheng will know where it is.
When I came in, I was almost swept under the endless void, where I also met Black Cat and Wu Fan.
Now it seems that everything there has become very small, like a sand table, and even the ghosts inside can be easily seen. They are all lying on the ground now, as if waiting for their fate to come.
Of course, Gu Zheng would not do anything to the other party. Even the banshee who was chasing him was also trembling on the ground. It was not at all as high-spirited as chasing Gu Zheng before.
These are all his subordinates. Although they are all ghosts, they only have simple instincts and obey the light from above. At least their weird abilities are still good.
The only thing missing is energy. If there is enough, their strength can be greatly increased, and they can even come out to fight for the ancient war.
However, there are rules in the black tower that Gu Zheng cannot understand. Anyone who enters will not have any cultivation, giving people a feeling of being imprisoned.
He felt that if he saw someone he didn't like in the future, it wouldn't be a bad idea to arrest him directly and let him experience the feeling of life and death.
As the core Jinyu's energy and his spirit seeped in, it took a full day to finally fully master this place.
The core gold and jade on the outside also merged into the outside of the ninth floor of the black tower, turning into a small gold dot in the middle and hanging on it.
After Gu Zheng rested for half a day, he continued to practice one by one.
The eighth floor is a void area, all filled with white mist. There are no ghosts or land at all. It's so strange.
The seventh floor is the complex grotto. The bloody stones can still be felt from above.
The sixth level is the mountain where Gu Zheng smashed the green energy. There are crisscrossing water bodies below. However, even if Gu Zheng controls it, he doesn’t know where the water leads to or what he is doing here.
On the fifth floor is a lonely red ship, only parked on a small sea surface.
The fourth level is an endless ocean, with only a few small islands on it. However, the islands are also bare, with nothing but stones, and it is very desolate.
The third floor is the place where Gu Zheng once followed Meng Zhen. The iconic red house and a large area of demon souls on the periphery can be clearly seen at this time. The space inside is huge, with all kinds of There are all the terrains, more like a super huge maze.
Before Gu Zheng, I had only explored one of them, but there were dozens of such places.
The second floor is where Gu Zheng failed for the first time. However, there are no buildings at this time. There is only an open space on it. However, this top is connected to the top. It seems that the terrain inside is also randomly intercepted from the top. .
The first level is where Gu Zheng himself is, and he can even feel his presence from inside, because this black tower is only for control, but in fact he is still in the black tower.
After a series of sacrificial exercises, Gu Zheng not only showed no signs of consumption, but was in high spirits and seemed to be in excellent spirits. He even recovered to some extent from the injuries in his body.
Without him, it was the core gold and jade that the other party left for him. The energy inside was too abundant. It was indeed the energy that the other party had worked hard to collect. Even if he kept using it, he didn't use much of it. Then it was all embedded on it. By then, it will become part of the source of Black Tower's power, which will be enough to support it for a long time.
What a great guy, otherwise Gu Zheng would still have a headache because of the source of consumption of the Black Tower.
After doing all this, a smile appeared on his face. At least half of his original wish was realized. It's just a pity that it can't be regarded as a real killer weapon.
After doing all this, Gu Zheng's heart moved. He raised a new building on the first floor below and moved most of the ghost girls and crying girls into it.
As for the powerful ghosts in Meat Ball, they were moved to the sixth floor by Gu Zheng.
In fact, these ghosts can be created at any time by spending energy, but Gu Zheng is not willing to waste it. Maybe they will be used in the future.
These ghosts were just a thought on his mind, and they were all transferred. After restraining the other party not to come out, he asked them.
From low-level to high-level, these ghosts were ghost girls, crying girls, meat balls, green ghost faces, silent monsters, thousand-eyed monsters, and banshees. As for whether there were any new ghosts, he didn't know.
Although the strength is getting higher as you go forward, because of the control of Gu Zheng, in fact, the overall level is not higher than that of Da Luo. No matter how much energy is injected, it can only reach the peak of Jinxian, but each one has different special uses. .
To be honest, if it weren't for the other party's special use, Gu Zheng wouldn't have kept them. At least now he has spiritual guards in his hands, which is enough for the time being.
As for the crystals and the like found inside, they were no longer useful. They were some gadgets made by the woman in gold to fight against the fox demon. What made Gu Zheng happy was that he could also make one of the puppet dolls, and there could only be one, which could be used as a substitute at critical moments outside.
Although the production cycle was long and costly, Gu Zheng still made one directly. After all, this thing could completely save his life. He had experienced its effectiveness and did not notice it under the other party's nose.
Especially the flesh body left by the other party, as long as he did not attack, it was also lifelike and could not be distinguished at all.
Thinking that he still had some questions, he did not disturb the woman in gold. The other party did not understand anything, and all the knowledge was given to him. Let the other party sleep, and let him explore the rest by himself.
The black tower in front of him shrank rapidly, and finally became a small black tower, which fell into his palm. After playing with it for a while, Gu Zheng knew that he should leave.
