Chapter 399 Tower Spirit and Test
At this time, a group of Yuanying-stage cultivators had already led their men and flown out of the Wanli Yellow Sand Formation one after another, heading straight for the stone steps on the third floor.
Yuan Ming's sight also moved away from the Tiansha Gourd, and his consciousness spread to the third floor of the Black Tower, and his eyes widened slightly.
After Wanqi Hong and others entered the third floor one after another, they all stopped with different expressions.
The space on the third floor of the Black Tower was about the same size as the first and second floors. It was extremely empty, without even a supporting stone pillar, and one could see the bottom at a glance.
At the end of everyone's sight, a round stone platform could be seen, made of white crystal jade, with a faint glow.
On the stone platform was a blood-colored screen, with five strange figures embroidered on it, both men and women. The dark red blood light kept changing and flashing on it, which looked extremely strange.
Yuan Ming's eyes moved. This blood-colored screen was two feet long and one foot high. Its size and appearance were quite similar to the picture of the Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts, and some parts were even exactly the same.
"This screen is so similar to my Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts. Could it be the Bloodthirsty Asura?" Yuan Ming guessed secretly in his heart.
However, above the blood-colored screen, two figures were quietly floating. They were Su Zimo and the blond youth.
The two raised their arms and put their legs together. They seemed to be trapped by something and unable to move. Their faces were full of fear.
A woman in red stood in front of Su Zimo and the others. Her facial features were pretty, but there was a heavy evil spirit between her eyebrows. She was wearing a loose red robe that dragged on the ground.
This woman was shrouded by a fierce power. Wanqi Hong and others' spiritual consciousness could not penetrate it. However, Yuan Ming's spiritual consciousness could monitor everything and take in everything about the woman in red.
The woman's cheeks and arms looked normal, but under the red robe was actually an empty skeleton with some meat strands left on the bones.
As for Su Zimo and the others floating in the air, it was because their bodies were entangled by several invisible and transparent ropes.
Those transparent filaments came from a transparent large net suspended in the air, like a spider web. Su Zimo and the other two looked like two small insects that hit the web, imprisoned and unable to move.
This invisible spider web seemed to be a magic weapon with excellent concealment effect. Yuan Ming sent his divine sense from the Stealing Heaven Cauldron to explore, but he almost didn't find the existence of this web.
The red-clothed woman seemed to ignore the arrival of Wanqi Hong and others. She stretched out her hands, and a series of hazy blood threads shot out from her fingertips, piercing into the bodies of Su Zimo and the other two.
The bodies of Su Zimo and the other two became shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye. They opened their mouths but could not make any sound.
In just a few breaths, the two turned into two skinny people in front of Wanqi Hong and others.
A Yuanying period ancestor who was powerful enough in the outside world fell silently, which made the pupils of everyone present shrink suddenly, and there was a little fear in their eyes when they looked at the red-clothed woman.
Even the Yuanying-stage cultivators such as Wanqi Hong and Lei Ming Laozu could not sense the existence of the invisible net. For a moment, they stood still and did not dare to act rashly.
Yuan Ming checked from the Stealing Heaven Cauldron and found something unusual.
Su Zimo and the other two had already fallen, but for some reason their spirits did not leave their bodies and remained in their bodies.
"It seems that Xueying did not lie. Shura Palace really came into the world." The red-clothed woman looked at the people at the entrance of the stairs, moved her hands slightly, and the blood threads shot out from her fingertips broke.
The transparent spider web trembled slightly, and the bodies of Su Zimo and the other fell down, but did not fall to the ground. Two tentacle-like blood lights shot out from the blood-colored screen, wrapped around the two bodies, and pulled them back.
Circles of ripple-like blood lights appeared on the screen, and the two mummies merged into it and disappeared.
"You don't look like a living person. Could you be the guard of this blood-colored screen? We followed the guidance of Master Shura and came here to break through the barriers and get treasures." Wanqi Hong glanced at the blood-colored screen and said politely.
"I was refined into a pagoda spirit by Master Shura and stayed here for more than a thousand years, waiting for you. This screen is the Shura Bloodthirsty Map, the spiritual treasure that Master Shura is most proud of, and it is also your goal." The woman in red looked at the blood-colored screen and said.
"This screen is indeed the Shura Bloodthirsty Map, but this woman in red..." Yuan Ming nodded secretly, with a sneer on his lips.
Ancestor Lei Ming and Fairy Jin Xi were excited at this moment. The blood-colored screen in front of them turned out to be a spiritual treasure!
As Yuanying-stage cultivators of major sects, the two naturally knew the existence of spiritual treasures. There was a spiritual treasure called "Canghai Xuanshuizhu" in Changchun Temple. Occasionally, it showed great power that shook the world.
It is precisely by relying on the mighty power of the Canghai Xuanshuizhu that Changchun Temple has become the overlord of the Central Plains.
If they can seize the Shura Blood Devouring Map, the Wulei Sect and the Lingfu Sect may be able to go further, and even compete with Changchun Temple.
"Fellow Daoist Jinxi, let's not talk about the grudges between you and me before. With the spiritual treasure in front of us, I am afraid that I am not the opponent of Wanqi Hong and the Black Desert Alliance if I fight alone. How about joining forces? If we can seize the Shura Blood Devouring Map, not only will the strength of our two sects increase greatly, but the status of the entire Zhao Kingdom's cultivation world will also be raised, and we will no longer have to look at the faces of Dajin and Changchun Temple." Ancestor Lei Ming suppressed his excitement and communicated with Fairy Jinxi immediately through voice transmission.
"Fellow Daoist Yu's suggestion may be good, but there is only one Shura Blood Devouring Map. Even if we get it by chance, how should we distribute it?" Fairy Jinxi was silent for a moment and replied through voice transmission.
"The value of a spiritual treasure is inestimable, and it is really difficult to distribute it. At that time, the Five Thunder Sect and the Spirit Talisman Sect will sign an alliance and jointly control this treasure. No matter what, this Shura Bloodthirsty Map must not be taken away by the people of Changchun Temple or Beimo!" Lei Ming Patriarch transmitted the voice.
"Okay, let's do as Fellow Daoist Yu said." Fairy Jin Xi replied.
Lei Ming Patriarch was happy when he heard this, but his face remained calm.
Wanqi Hong and Dugu Feng knew more about Master Shura. They vaguely heard that he had a spiritual treasure. Hearing the words of the red-clothed woman, their eyes also flashed with uncontrollable excitement.
Although the four Yuanying cultivators were all moved by the spiritual treasure, they had their own thoughts, but they did not move.
The fall of Su Zimo and the other two was right in front of them. They asked themselves that no one could kill Su Zimo so silently if they fought alone, so no one dared to step forward casually.
The red-clothed woman did not say anything more, but just looked at the people below quietly.
For a moment, the scene fell into silence again, and you could hear a pin drop.
"Since you are waiting for us to break through, why do you want to kill Su Zimo and the other two?" Lei Ming Patriarch was the first to break the silence and asked.
"If you want to take the Shura Blood Devouring Map, you need to pass the test of Master Shura. Just now, the two people did not listen to my dissuasion and tried to take the treasure by force. People who do not follow the rules will naturally pay the corresponding price. If you want to take the treasure by force, you can also try." The red-clothed woman said calmly.
Lei Ming Patriarch smiled embarrassedly and closed his mouth.
"Of course, we will not be as rude as Su Zimo, but this Shura Blood Devouring Map is a spiritual treasure with inestimable value. Daoyou has been guarding it here for a thousand years. Do you really let us take it away?" Dugu Feng continued.
"I have been ordered to guard this place. As long as the Shura Bloodthirsty Map is here, I cannot leave. If you take the Shura Bloodthirsty Map away, I will be freed from the shackles, which is exactly what I want! Moreover, with my current tower spirit body, it is impossible for me to exert the power of the spiritual treasure. What do I need this useless thing for?" said the woman in red.
Dugu Feng and his companions relaxed their faces after hearing this, as if they believed the woman in red.
"May I ask, sir, what is the test that Master Shura left here?" Dugu Feng asked.
"The Shura Bloodthirsty Map is an extremely evil spiritual treasure. Only those with a firm mind can master it. You guys should first break into this blood soul field. Those who pass it will enter the map to take the "questioning heart" test. Those who finally pass it will get the Shura Bloodthirsty Map." The woman in red said, waving her sleeves.
A thick blood light appeared in the three-layer space, the wind was strong, and the blood mist was filled. One by one, distorted and deformed ghosts emerged in the blood mist, making ghosts crying and howling.
The woman in red tapped her fingers several times, and the bloody light and dark wind condensed into a rectangular bloody light area, stretching not far in front of Dugu Feng and others.
Seeing this, several people couldn't help but look at the bloody light area, their eyes were quickly drowned by the bloody light, and they walked forward blankly, and Wanqi Hong was no exception.
"This woman in red is so scheming, and her magic power of illusion is so brilliant!" Yuan Ming said inwardly.
This dark wind and bloody light is an extremely powerful magic power of illusion. The woman in red first used the magic treasure of Shura Blood Devouring Map to shake the minds of everyone present, and then induced Dugu Feng and others to relax their vigilance in the name of a test, and used illusion to control everyone in one fell swoop, which was really powerful.
Judging from the effect of this illusion, the woman in red seemed to just want everyone to get close to Shura Blood Devouring Map.
The transparent large net magic weapon was suspended above the bloody light area, ready to move, as if it was just waiting for everyone to get close, and then it would cover their heads, and then everyone would be caught in one net.
At this time, Yan Sijing also fell into the illusion, moving forward in a daze, and her prayers to the Dark Moon God began to be intermittent, and Yuan Ming's vision quickly became blurred.
Yuan Ming's face changed slightly, and after his thoughts turned quickly, a spiritual consciousness was projected through Yan Sijing in all directions, but it was the Ten Directions Soul Wave that impacted everyone's soul.
Yuan Ming didn't know what the red-clothed woman was thinking. Now Xiying seemed to be controlled by the illusion, and the situation on the third floor was weird. The red-clothed woman was very powerful. He might not be able to take the Shura Bloodthirsty Map from her alone.
Before the situation on the third floor was explored, others could not die!
Dugu Feng and others trembled in their souls and woke up.
The red-clothed woman also sensed the Ten Directions Soul Wave, and her face showed anger. Her hands immediately grabbed out and disappeared into the void!
A shrill scream and a loud thunderclap sounded at the same time. In the crowd, Pi Xiu's chest was pierced by a bloody hand. It was the hand of the woman in red that disappeared. When it appeared again, it was holding a still beating heart, with blood dripping.
