Chapter 155: Climbing the Tower
At this moment, the wind outside the Tianji Tower was as cold as frost, as if to freeze everyone's uneasy thoughts. Such a chill enveloped the surroundings, which was too terrible. Everyone was slowly retreating.
Lingluan and others also froze in place, but what they felt now was not such a chill, but in Wuchen's eyes at this moment, they could not see the slightest fear of Feng Gufei.
The man in white who called Xiao Chen earlier was also stunned. He thought that with Feng Gufei present at this moment, plus so many people, Wuchen would always be a little afraid, but he did not expect the other party's eyes to be so cold, so cold that it was suffocating, making him tremble and uneasy.
Feng Gufei took two steps forward, slowly stretched out his hand, blocked the man in white behind him, looked at Xiao Chen, and smiled faintly, "It's okay."
The atmosphere eased a little, and the people nearby also breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Chen turned his head and stopped looking at anyone, and went straight to the hall on the first floor of the Tianji Tower.
Feng Gufei stared at his departing figure, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, his eyes gradually became a little cold, with a hint of invisible cold murderous intent.
The first floor of the "Tianji" tower is the hall, which is very spacious and can accommodate all the disciples of the Tianji tower. The second floor is the place for cultivation.
The disciples only need to climb this tower, and they can come in to practice every month in the future. It is very beneficial to personal cultivation. This is one of the reasons why so many people outside are vying to enter the Tianji tower.
Xiao Chen came to the hall on the first floor, and Ling Luan followed him in a blink of an eye, pulling his sleeve to the side, and whispered, "Le Wuchen, come here, let them climb the tower first..."
Xiao Chen frowned slightly, and Ling Luan saw some doubts on his face, so she let go of his sleeve and made a silent gesture, and then whispered, "Let those 'old people' 'get there first', and we newcomers will climb the tower last. It seems disadvantageous, but it is actually advantageous, because in this way, they can't squeeze us down..."
The rule of Tianji Tower is that the second floor of the 27th floor of the lowest human realm can accommodate 100 people, and the quota decreases upwards. When it comes to the 27th floor of the earth realm in the middle, each floor can only accommodate one person. If you are squeezed down, you can only wait until next year to climb up.
Because of this, the competition in Tianji Tower has always been very fierce, and private conflicts are always constant, but these are all ways to hone disciples. Unless the situation gets out of control, the elders generally do not intervene.
After understanding the rules, Xiao Chen said nothing more and went to the training room in the center of the hall, waiting for the old disciples to climb the tower first.
The competition for climbing the tower was naturally very fierce. Two elders in charge of "Tianji" stood in front of the teleportation formation, one to send the disciples into the tower, and the other to prevent anyone from directly clashing in the hall.
At noon, as expected, the one who climbed to the peak of the Earth Realm, that is, the 54th floor, was undoubtedly Feng Gufei. The next floor was the Heaven Realm, and the reason why he did not continue to challenge the Heaven Realm was that he probably knew that his cultivation was not enough, and the second was that the Tianji Tower had rules.
Unless it was a new disciple, once he reached the peak of the "Earth Realm" or "Human Realm", he had to stay at the peak for a year and continue to challenge the next floor next year.
However, there were exceptions for newcomers. As long as the newcomers were strong enough, they could challenge all the way up without restraint, even if they directly climbed to the Heaven Realm. The purpose of doing so was to avoid leaving pearls in the ocean and burying talents.
At this moment, Feng Gufei walked out of the teleportation array, looking at his name on the Tianji list not far away, with a burning look in his eyes that others could not see. He only needed to wait for another year to reach the Tianzi realm...
The legendary Tianzi realm, he didn't know what it would be like inside, and as far as he knew, no one had ever reached the peak of the Tianzi realm in thousands of years, including the four elders.
"Brother Feng, congratulations!"
"Next year, Brother Feng will definitely reach the Tianzi realm..."
Seeing Feng Gufei coming out of the teleportation array, many people came up to compliment him. Feng Gufei nodded slightly, and bowed to the two elders beside the formation, and then he did not stay for long and went outside the Tianji Tower.
For someone like him who stood at the top, it was naturally impossible for him to stay like others to watch the Tianji list, because he was confident that no one could squeeze him out.
Not long after Feng Gu flew away, another person came out of the teleportation array. The person was dressed in red, but her eyes were cold as ice. Even the old disciples around were frightened by her coldness.
That person was none other than Qin E from the Tianlan Sword Sect. Her name was on the 36th level of the Tianji Ranking.
The 36th level was the peak of the 4th level, but it was also the beginning of the Earth Level. At this moment, the people around felt a little surprised in addition to the coldness. With the strength of this proud daughter of the Tianlan Sword Sect, she should be able to reach the 40th level, but why did she fail in the challenge just now?
It is not difficult to see from the Tianji Ranking that Qin E's name reached the 37th level, and then failed when she challenged the 38th level. Because the failure of the Earth Level challenge will regress one level, so she retreated to the 36th level.
At this moment, Qin E walked out step by step. The coldness on her body was like a sharp thorn. Anyone who accidentally touched it at this time would be stabbed. Therefore, no one dared to provoke this rich lady at this time, and some even retreated to other places to avoid "collision" with her.
Qin E walked out and glanced at her name on the Tianji List. Her face became even colder. She flicked her sleeves and walked outside, not wanting to take another look at it.
Originally, she came to Tianji Tower two years ago. Three years ago, she got a Tianji Card with her own strength. Later, she prepared for a full year before she came to Tianji Tower. When she came, she was a blockbuster. Climbed into the "dizi realm".
But who would have expected that this time she would climb the tower with full confidence, but she would make a serious mistake when challenging the thirty-eighth floor. Although she stayed at the peak level of the fourth realm, which was enviable, she was far from reaching her own level. A year's worth of expectations, let alone catching up with Feng Gufei.
By the time dusk fell, more than twenty newcomers had also completed the challenge. Lingluan jumped out of the teleportation array. Although she failed to board the "Earth Realm", her name stayed on the twenty-seventh floor. , which is the pinnacle level of the "human character realm".
"snort."
Looking at the names on the Tianji list, Lingluan raised the corners of his mouth and chuckled softly. However, he continued to look up, but did not see Wuchen's name. At this time, two girls came over, with smiles on their faces like a spring breeze. Congratulations to Junior Sister Lingluan.”
"Huh?" Lingluan touched his head and asked them, "Have you seen Wuchen?"
"Liao Wuchen..." The two girls looked around, shook their heads and said, "I haven't seen him all afternoon."
"He... oops! That's bad!"
Lingluan seemed to remember something, and regardless of the strange expressions of the two girls behind him, he ran towards the training room. When he arrived in the training room, he saw Wuchen sitting there alone, his eyes lightly closed, his body The real energy around him was flowing, and he had obviously entered a state of meditation.
"Liao Wuchen! Why are you still sitting here like a stupid idiot? There's only half an hour left! Go to the tower quickly! Hey! Liao Wuchen, did you hear me?"
Lingluan yelled for a long time without any response, so he ran over quickly, put his two fingers together, condensed a stream of green energy, and tapped it towards the center of his eyebrows.
Xiao Chen immediately seemed to wake up from a dream, opened his eyes, looked at her, and frowned, "What are you doing?"
"You idiot! What are you asking me for? It's less than half an hour, you have to go to the tower! If you miss it today, you will have to wait until next year!"
Lingluan was seen clenching his hands into small fists and stamping his feet as he spoke, as if he was more anxious than the cold man in front of him.
"Climb the tower..."
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly, and he instantly launched the Lingxian Step, and went out like a gust of wind. Lingluan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, it was so fast...
When he came to the teleportation formation, Xiao Chen didn't wait for the two elders to speak and rushed inside. There was still half an hour left. Reaching the thirty-sixth floor in half an hour would be almost as difficult as climbing to the sky. No one has ever been able to reach the peak of the fourth realm in half an hour.
People outside only saw a figure flash past, and were still wondering who had just entered the teleportation array. Not long after, they heard someone in the distance exclaim, "Look!"
On the Tianji Ranking, the words "Liao Wuchen" suddenly appeared on the second level, followed by the third level, the fourth level, the fifth level, the sixth level...
"he……"
The crowd was stunned. It turned out that the figure that had just rushed into the teleportation array was him, but the speed at which he climbed the tower... was too terrifying.
"The ninth floor...the ninth floor!"
"Tenth floor!"
"The eleventh floor!"
"Twelve floors!"
There were constant exclamations in the crowd. At this moment, everyone was staring at Najibang without moving, for fear of missing a glimpse.
In just one stick of incense, the three words "Liao Wuchen" actually reached the twenty-seventh floor from the second floor! This is nearly an hour faster than Feng Gu flew back then!
"It's incredible..."
At this moment, even the two elders next to the teleportation array felt a little horrified. Is this person a monster? How deep is his path...
The elder on the left looked at the stick of sandalwood next to him. He only had this stick of incense left. Could this man create a miracle?
In the distance, all the newcomers stared blankly at the changes in the rankings on the day's pole list. Lingluan also looked at it and stamped her feet anxiously, "Faster! Faster! You idiot, if I don't wake you up, I’m afraid you’ll have to sleep until dawn tomorrow morning!”
"Level 28! He has reached the Earth Character Realm!"
The crowd let out another exclamation, and saw that the three characters "Liao Wuchen" had risen to the top of the Earth Character Realm rankings.
Time passed little by little, and everyone was paying close attention, watching the three words "Liao Wuchen" rising continuously. Finally, the stick of incense next to the teleportation array was about to burn out, but Xiao Chen's name was still there. Floor 35.
At this moment, in the illusion on the thirty-fifth floor of the Tianji Tower, Xiao Chen could see sweat pouring down his face, a wisp of black energy between his eyebrows, and several looming death auras wrapped around his body.
Yes, he used the skills in the Heavenly Book. If he didn't use the Heavenly Book, he wouldn't be able to reach the thirty-fifth level in such a short time. But as soon as he used the skills in the Heavenly Book, he was immediately counterattacked by the death energy.
He didn't know how much longer he could hold on, but he had to reach the thirty-sixth level before the backlash came completely, before the end of the stick of incense, otherwise, he would not be able to see Senior Gudeng.
