Chu Li pressed his hand on the tower. It was not made of pure copper. The material was strange and he had never felt it before. It was as cold as cold iron. The cold air immediately entered his palm as if it was going to freeze him.
Sun Mingyue's expression changed when she saw that he was not moving. She quickly reached out to press on it.
Chu Li quickly stopped her.
The bone-chilling cold air circulated in his body. It was extremely Yin and extremely cold. He activated the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture to convert it into extremely Yang inner energy and exhaled it onto the tower. Endless cold air entered his body and he exhaled endless Yang energy.
His right palm slowly sank into the tower. It was like a hot knife touching butter. There was no resistance.
Chu Li used his left hand to pull his right sleeve to cover his right palm.
Amidst a flurry of hurried footsteps, a group of red-robed monks floated over and surrounded the two. In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred monks had gathered. All of them were bald men with ring scars.
"Namo Amitabha …" An old monk stepped forward with a solemn look in his eyes. He looked at the two of them with a solemn expression. "My humble temple has failed to welcome the two benefactors with your presence. May I know what brings you here?"
"I want to go in and take a look." Sun Mingyue pointed at the Rotary Tower.
"Namo Amitabha …" The old monk shook his head and sighed. "This is the Tower of Inheritance of our temple. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. Please forgive us, almsgivers. Moreover, you can't enter either. Only disciples of our temple can enter. This is the great divine power of our founder."
Chu Li's right palm was covered by his sleeve. Others could not see that his palm had sunk into the tower.
Although the monks were furious and did not know how the two of them avoided the temple's protective formation, they were not worried. The two of them could not enter the Rotary Tower. It was useless even if their martial arts were amazing. This was the foundation of the Reincarnation Temple.
Sun Mingyue said, "This isn't a place of inheritance. It's a treasure, right?"
"Namo Amitabha …" The old monk's expression did not change. He shook his head and sighed. "Lady, you're mistaken. The Rotary Tower contains the truth of heaven and earth, the mystery of reincarnation and life. If you can comprehend it in the tower, you'll obtain supreme wisdom and freedom. From there, you can cultivate the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture. It's not a treasure or weapon. You don't have to covet it."
Sun Mingyue scoffed. "We're just curious. My master was injured by your Tower of Inheritance!"
The old monk's expression changed slightly. "So it's the Saintess!"
Sun Mingyue said, "You don't have to say anything more. We must go in and take a look."
"Namo Amitabha …" The old monk did not speak further. He shook his head and sighed. "Saint, why are you asking for trouble? You must be Almsgiver Chu?"
"That's me." Chu Li smiled. "What a coincidence, I've also cultivated the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture. I've even sparred with your temple's Monk Zhi Shan and I've made great progress. I'm here to explore the pagoda!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a muffled rumble in front of him, and a hole appeared.
Chu Li pulled Sun Mingyue along and disappeared from the cave.
"Namo Amitabha!" The old monk raised his brows and shouted, "Inform the seniors in the pagoda!"
"Yes!" The two monks nodded. They leaped up and knocked on the pagoda's waist a few times.
"Dok dok dok, dok dok dok dok." After a rhythmic knocking sound, the two middle-aged monks landed and nodded.
This was their method of communication. Apart from them, no one else knew that there was only one position in the entire pagoda that could be transmitted into the pagoda. Voices from other positions could not be transmitted into the pagoda. Once one stepped into the temple, one would enter another world and be completely isolated from the outside world.
The knocking sound was to inform the people inside that two enemies had entered the pagoda and to be careful to eliminate them.

As soon as Chu Li and Sun Mingyue stepped into the pagoda, their vision darkened. Then, they found themselves in the wilderness. From the outside, the iron pagoda's diameter was only about fifty steps. Now that they had stepped into the pagoda, they realized that the surroundings were vast and boundless.
They were surrounded by wild beasts that were even larger than the Evil Nether Dragon. They were about to crash into them at any time.
Chu Li did not dodge them. He watched as they crashed into him but passed through his body as if they were illusions. Chu Li squinted his eyes and felt that they were not ordinary illusions. It was as if these were souls that would make him feel a little dizzy when they bumped into him.
He turned his head and said, "Don't let them hit you!"
Sun Mingyue nodded.
She was already dodging and did not crash into them head-on like Chu Li.
"This is a formation!" Sun Mingyue scoffed.
Chu Li nodded.
If it was just a formation, his Heavenly Star Insight Skill could break it in an instant. However, he could not break this formation.
He also felt that his divine power was being suppressed. Not only could he not use the Omniscient Mirror, but he also could not use God's Limbs.
The Heavenly Star Insight Skill was not a divine power, so he could use it. Unfortunately, its power was greatly reduced here.
He suddenly understood why the Heavenly Star Insight Skill was so powerful. It was because of the Omniscient Mirror's support. Without the Omniscient Mirror, the Heavenly Star Insight Skill's power was greatly reduced and could not be compared to before.
There were many types of giant beasts in the wilderness. There were leopards, tigers, eagles, lions, and even some giant rabbits. They were extremely fast. In a single leap, they were faster than when they used their Light-body Technique.
Sun Mingyue said in a low voice, "They're getting more and more ferocious!"
As soon as she finished speaking, six flying tigers charged at her, not giving her a chance to dodge.
She could only float upwards to dodge, but she did not expect the flying tigers to suddenly rush up and hit her.
Just as she was about to dodge, she did not vanish. The six flying tigers pounced on her.
Chu Li suddenly stood in front of her, but he could not block the six flying tigers.
They silently passed through his body, and then through Sun Mingyue's body.
Sun Mingyue stiffened for a moment, but she quickly recovered and let out a long sigh. "Fortunately, it's an illusion. If it were real flying tigers, we'd be dead by now!"
Chu Li's expression was solemn. "If it were someone else, they'd be dead for sure."
His soul energy was very strong. Although Sun Mingyue was not as strong as him, she was still very strong and far surpassed ordinary people. If it were someone else, their soul would have been destroyed.
"It's that powerful?" Sun Mingyue asked.
"This is an illusion formation." Chu Li frowned. "But it's not an illusion. It's the soul that gets hurt when it pounces on us."
"That's strange!" Sun Mingyue frowned.
The two of them kept dodging the groups of beasts. Chu Li slid his feet, one on the left and one on the right with Sun Mingyue. From time to time, they would make some unimaginable dodging moves. They were extremely agile.
However, as they dodged, more and more beasts ran over. In the end, they were surrounded by a dense group of beasts, not giving them a chance to dodge.
It was useless to strike with their palms. They were all illusions, unaffected by palm energy and fist force. They continued to pounce on them.
After being hit a few times, Sun Mingyue's face gradually turned pale. She said in a low voice, "This is bad, I feel dizzy and want to sleep!"
Chu Li suddenly clenched his teeth and sat cross-legged on the ground. "I'll take care of them!"
"How?" Sun Mingyue frowned.
This formation was truly terrifying. All of their abilities were useless here. They could not break it or escape. It was like entering a prison. If they continued like this, they would fall into a deep sleep and never wake up again.
