Chapter 280: How did I provoke such a powerful enemy? {Third update}
“What just happened?”
Although Gu Yang was worried about Pei Qianlan, he thought with Wu Er around, nothing too bad would happen. He suppressed his concern and asked Ling Ling about what just had transpired.
Ling Ling shook her head and said, “I don’t know, Master once told me when he passed the Sky Pearl to me that it could control the Demon Suppression Tower. In the urgent situation just now, I was thinking if I could give you a hand, but I didn’t expect…”
“Regardless, the loss of the Demon Suppression Tower is a good thing for that fellow from the Red Sun.”
That was all Gu Yang could say.
As he spoke, he couldn’t help but look at the sword in his hand. The Primordial Spirit within the sword was already gone.
Its spirituality remained, but it would no longer actively transmit thoughts and call him “Master”.
In such a short period of time, the Primordial Spirit had already been obliterated.
No wonder he had encountered so many peerless divine weapons, but not one had a Primordial Spirit.
It seems that not only cultivators were affected by the death of the Way of Heaven, but also the Primordial Spirit within the magic treasures.
If his guess was correct, the elderly man inside the Demon Suppression Tower was also a Primordial Spirit. Affected by the drastic changes in the world, he had been in a deep sleep until now.
But inadvertently he had woken him up.
From this point of view, this Demon Suppression Tower is no ordinary magic treasure. The Primordial Spirit could exist for such a long time.
According to the dean, it should have been at least ten thousand years since the death of the Way of Heaven.
“Where would the Demon Suppression Tower have flown to?”
Gu Yang looked in the direction where it disappeared and asked.
Ling Ling shook her head. Her knowledge of the Demon Suppression Tower was limited to knowing it was a treasure of the Dao Sect.
Gu Yang thought in his heart, “I hope it will not have a significant impact on the future.”
“Let’s go.”
Gu Yang quickly figured out that they were in Jingzhou.
The speed of the Demon Suppression Tower was too fast.
Traveling from Yunzhou to Jingzhou would require passing four or five prefectures, at least ten thousand kilometers. They had been in the Demon Suppression Tower for no more than an hour.
They were not far from Jingzhou City.
Ling Ling asked, “Aren’t we going to Jingzhou City?”
Gu Yang shook his head, “No need, let’s not give Brother Wu more trouble.”
He was already in too much trouble; it was better not to involve King Jinghai.
Being in a weak state, they found an uninhabited mountain range and took a rest in a cave after figuring out where they were.
Being in Jingzhou, thousands of miles away, Gu Yang no longer needed to worry about being pursued by Shen Yun.
While Ling Ling was sitting in meditation to recover her strength inside, he quietly opened the system.
After the awakening of the Primordial Spirit of the Demon Suppression Tower, it disappeared with this supreme treasure.
He always felt a bit uneasy and thought he should run a simulation.
“At the age of twenty-two, you were at the third-level of Mana, killed the Red Sun, the leader of the Red Venerate Sect, in the Immeasurable Mountain, causing a sensation in the world.”
“You inadvertently woke up the Demon Suppression Tower and freed it from the control of the Red Sun, causing it to fly away.”
“You and Ling Ling have arrived in Jingzhou. After recovering, on your way to Jiangzhou, you hear news that Jingzhou City was destroyed and King Jinghai was killed. You decide to avenge King Jinghai and return to Jingzhou.”
“You spent half a month investigating the matter but made no progress. With a month’s agreement with Wen Jue, the head of Dao Sect, you decided to leave first.”
“When you appeared in Divine City, Saint Chao Yang appeared immediately and took you away.”
“One year later, due to the exhaustion of your original energy, you died at the age of twenty-three.”
King Jinghai met with an accident?
Gu Yang started feeling uneasy halfway through the simulation.
Furthermore, it occurred precisely during these few days.
He immediately became restless.
He owed King Jinghai a huge favor because of Pei Qianlan’s incident.
This was the man he admired the most since he crossed over, and it would be too regrettable if he just died like that.
“The simulation has ended. You may keep one of the following conditions.”
“First, your martial arts realm at the age of twenty-two.”
“Second, your martial arts experience at the age of twenty-three.”
“Third, your wisdom of life at the age of twenty-three.”
“I choose the first one.”
Gu Yang’s exhausted Mana was instantly restored.
However, he didn’t rush to rescue anyone and ran another simulation.
“You head to Jingzhou City and encounter a powerful man from a different continent. After a battle, the enemy retreats.”
