As soon as Zi Yingying left the room, the door was closed by Du Feng from the inside. Now that all the demon scorpion venom had been absorbed into his right hand, he had to digest and absorb it quickly. Whether it was venom or demonic qi, they were good nutrients for him, but he needed a process of digestion and absorption.
If he didn't convert it into energy, it would also cause harm to his body. It was too inconvenient to have outsiders around, but now that Zi Yingying had left, it was much easier. He guided the demon scorpion venom to his dantian, and every time he guided it, it was like throwing a deep water bomb.
It had to be said that the demon scorpion warbeast was very powerful, and Gui Gu Nansheng's palm technique was also quite good. In particular, the demonic qi was extracted by Du Feng and channeled into the white bone banner, forcibly promoting several faceless ghost emperors by one level. As a hidden family, the Gui Gu family had placed such a powerful figure in the Seven Basaltic Mansions. What was their intention?
"Du Feng, open the door."
A few days later, Zi Yingying came to find Du Feng, but no one opened the door after shouting for a long time. Only then did she know that he had already left. She originally wanted to give him a gift, but she had to take it back first.
In fact, at this moment, Du Feng had already started cultivating in the Essence Energy Tower. He didn't go to challenge Gui Gu Nansheng. After all, the right to challenge would only be available next month. What's more, there was no need for him to go against the Gui Gu family for a woman he had just met.
Saving people was one thing, but Du Feng had no obligation to avenge Zi Yingying. Therefore, he chose a cultivation room with a relatively front number, defeated the other party, and successfully entered it to start cultivating. Perhaps most students were waiting to challenge Gui Gu Nansheng at the beginning of the next month, so no one came to disturb him.
Du Feng really guessed it right. At the beginning of the new month, there were really many people who went to challenge Gui Gu Nansheng. After all, it was a very glorious thing to defeat someone from a hidden family. However, there were only three challenge slots every month. The people in the queue discussed and came up with an idea. They would first compete with each other, and finally decide the three strongest students, and then challenge Gui Gu Nansheng.
Oh boy, it's going to be lively. Inside the Origin Energy Tower, there were originally only fights during the repair of the refining rooms. Moreover, each cultivation room could only be challenged three times in a month, so the casualty rate was not high. Now, in order to grab the opportunity to challenge Gui Gu Nansheng, the students were fighting amongst themselves.
"Elder, should we send someone to warn him?"
In the Martial Scripture Pavilion, Cang Jingsong was seeking the Pavilion Master's opinion. In fact, they all knew that the Guigu Family sending people to the Seven Basaltic Mansions to learn was definitely not a good thing. However, as a Martial House that was open to the public, as long as there were talented students, they could not refuse. Otherwise, others would say that they were too stingy.
"Don't worry, let's see what he's going to do next."
Cang Jingsong's intention was to find a strong student to challenge Guigu Nansheng. At the same time, he could rub off his arrogance. Otherwise, the Guigu Family would be too arrogant and think that the young people of the Seven Basaltic Mansions were all weaklings. However, the Master of the Martial Arts Pavilion was not in a hurry. He wanted to see what Gui Gu Nansheng would do next.
In fact, the time Du Feng entered the Essence Energy Tower's cultivation room was only slightly more than two hours later than Gui Gu Nansheng. Therefore, both of their cultivation time was on the same day. When he came out of his own cultivation room, he happened to see Gui Gu Nansheng also coming out.
"Gui Gu Nansheng, I want to challenge you."
A burly male student came out of the room after torturing Gui Gu Nansheng. He was obviously a little excited. When he spoke, his tone was a little higher. He was wearing a blue short-sleeved shirt with a big "Thunder" embroidered on the back. It seemed that he was a student with the word "Thunder".
Students with the word "Thunder" were considered to be a batch of students with stronger combat power among the same level. Being able to defeat so many students and obtain the opportunity to challenge Gui Gu Nansheng was enough to prove his strength.
"Okay, then come with me."
Gui Gu Nansheng gladly accepted the challenge, but he did not immediately make a move. This was because this cultivation room had already expired. He needed to find the next cultivation room to enter before accepting the challenge of others.
"Which room do you think he will choose? I guess it's Room 1."
"Let me say, he will go to Room 99."
Among the cultivation rooms on the first floor of the Origin Energy Tower, Room 1 and 99 had the best amplification effects. The strength of the students inside was also the strongest on the first floor. Therefore, everyone guessed that Gui Gu Nansheng would either go to Room 1 or Room 99. In short, no matter which room he chose, he had to first defeat the student inside.
If it was in the past, it would be considered unlucky if they were challenged because it would delay their cultivation time. But now, everyone was very envious because it was a very glorious thing to be challenged by someone from the Gui Gu Family. The Gui Gu Family and the Nangong Family were two completely different things. The Nangong Family relied on wealth and power to gradually become famous, while the Gui Gu Family relied on strength. They didn't need to spend a single cent, nor did they need to open any shops to obtain the recognition of all the martial artists in the four continents.
"What do you think? I was right, he's going to Room 99."
Seeing the direction Gui Gu Nansheng was walking in, everyone was basically sure that he was going to Cultivation Room 99, so they all followed. They wanted to see if the person in Cultivation Room 99 could beat Gui Gu Nansheng. Because most of them remembered that the person cultivating inside was Senior Brother Murong. Young Master Murong versus Gui Gu Nansheng, everyone was still looking forward to this battle.
But what happened next left them all dumbfounded. Gui Gu Nansheng passed Cultivation Room 99 and went straight up the stairs. Then, he walked up the stairs step by step. He was going to the second floor of the Essence Energy Tower.
"What do we do, should we follow?"
The crowd watching the show was dumbfounded. They never would have thought that Gui Gu Nansheng would no longer stay on the first floor and would actually go straight to the second floor of the Essence Energy Tower. Generally speaking, new students would stay on the first floor of the Essence Energy Tower for 99 months and use all the cultivation rooms before trying to challenge the second floor.
After all, the students who occupied the second floor were stronger and the failure rate of the challenge was higher. If they failed the challenge, it was equivalent to losing the right to use a cultivation room. There were a total of 88 cultivation rooms on the second floor and every opportunity to use them was very precious.
Most of the students who were watching the show stopped in front of the stairs and did not dare to go up. They had only practiced a few times on the first floor of the Essence Energy Tower and did not dare to go up to the second floor. Once they went to the second floor, it was equivalent to giving up all the remaining opportunities to use the cultivation rooms on the first floor. The Seven Basaltic Mansions had this rule. The Essence Energy Tower could only be challenged upwards and could not be challenged backwards to the lower floors.
