"Preposterous! I'd like to see who dares to do this!"
Elder Fenglei was furious.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Li Wuyu took the lead and ran downstairs.
The rest of the elders followed suit.
As the guest elder of the ancient pagoda, Gu Xuan didn't feel like sharing honor and disgrace with the other elders. He didn't seem to be angry at all and just walked down slowly.
Although the Pagoda Master was angry, as a Perfected Saint, he had to respect his status and be more reserved.
Moreover, Gu Xuan walked so slowly that it was obvious that he wanted a chance to be alone with him.
He also wanted to know what kind of trouble Gu Xuan could still come up with when everything seemed to have been settled.
What if he dared to expose his shortcomings?
Haha! Gu Xuan really didn't want to do anything.
He didn't expose the Pagoda Master's hypocritical and shameless side in front of Elder Fenglei and the others. Now that there were only the two of them, he wouldn't mention being tricked by the Pagoda Master.
Because if he did, there would be two results.
Either the Pagoda Master wasn't angry and mocked him to teach him what the evil of the world was.
Or the Pagoda Master was very angry and beat him to let him know that the world could be even more evil.
As a shrewd person, Gu Xuan didn't want either of these results.
"Haha, Gu Xuan, if you have something to say, just say it.
It won't be nice to hide it.
You're already a guest elder of the ancient pagoda. We're in the same boat. Don't hold a grudge because of some unpleasant things.
If you do, say it. Let's talk about it and see how to get rid of this grudge. "
The Pagoda Master smiled kindly, but a sinister light flashed in his eyes.
Gu Xuan cursed in his heart, "This old bastard wants to trick me. I'm not going to fall for it!"
Gu Xuan said seriously, "I'd like to ask you, Pagoda Master. How many years have you been in this sword tomb?
Why haven't you gone out for so long?
Can't you go out, or are you waiting for some treasure to appear, so you don't want to go out? "
The smile on the Pagoda Master's face froze.
Originally, he thought that Gu Xuan would explode with dissatisfaction and curse him.
He even thought about how to use his fists to quell Gu Xuan's dissatisfaction. He never thought that Gu Xuan would ask such a serious question.
Why didn't this kid play his cards according to the rules?
The Pagoda Master stopped smiling and his expression turned serious.
The moment he became serious, the pressure of a Great Perfection Realm expert faintly spread out from his body.
"Since you want to understand, I'll explain it briefly."
The Tower Master walked down the stairs while organizing his thoughts.
"We've been here for a hundred thousand years.
The reason why I didn't leave wasn't because I didn't want to, nor was it because I was waiting for some treasure. It was because I couldn't leave! "
Gu Xuan rubbed his chin and asked, "When you entered this place, what was the state of the Seven Star Realm?"
The Tower Master was slightly taken aback.
What kind of question was that?
Didn't you come in from the Seven Star Realm?
What is it like now? What was it like a hundred thousand years ago?
The situation in the Seven Star Realm was stable. Even the Nine Poison Valley, the Ancient Pagoda Lineage, and the Hundred Cities Alliance mostly came here.
However, there were still quite a number of experts left. They were more than enough to hold the fort.
Moreover, it had only been a mere hundred thousand years. How much change could there be?
The Tower Master was puzzled. However, seeing that Gu Xuan seemed to be serious, he answered seriously, "A hundred thousand years ago, the state of the Seven Star Realm was very normal.
The world was divided into three. The Nine Poison Valley, the Ancient Pagoda Lineage, and the Hundred Cities Alliance each had a respectable status.
As for the other small factions, there were not many who could affect the situation.
Only the Great Perfection Realm experts could affect the situation, but there were only six of them.
One from each of the three major factions came to the Ancient Sword Tomb.
Of the remaining three, one was Mu Old Ghost. He also came here, but his corpse was nowhere to be found.
Another was Mu Old Ghost's enemy, who was killed by him.
The last one was near the end of his lifespan. He had been hiding in seclusion and didn't even show up when his family was slaughtered. He probably died long ago.
That should be it, right?
Why is there a new Great Perfection Realm expert in the Seven Star Realm?
But that shouldn't be. I don't remember there being any outstanding juniors back then.
Could it be that a Great Perfection Realm expert was born among the fierce beasts … "The Tower Master seemed to be lost in his memories.
Gu Xuan fell into deep thought after hearing the first sentence.
He didn't have the slightest interest in the latter part of the sentence.
"The Tower Master said that 100,000 years ago, the Seven Star Realm was very normal.
According to Xing Xiangtian, the Seven Star Realm had already suffered a great calamity since a million years ago.
100,000 years ago, the Seven Star Realm should only have two cities left and hundreds of millions of people struggling at death's door.
These two statements obviously contradict each other. "
Gu Xuan kept thinking.
"Xing Xiangtian's statement is obviously more believable.
After all, the Seven Star Realm had already become the Seven Star Region.
It also means that the Tower Master and the others had stayed here for at least a million years or even longer.
However, the Tower Master and the others all said that they had only stayed here for 100,000 years. This shouldn't be a lie.
As a Great Perfection Realm expert, the Tower Master had a strong sense of time. It was impossible for him to not know if 100,000 years or a million years had passed.
Even if he couldn't figure it out, a million years was a long time. Many low-level and mid-level saints would have reached the end of their lifespan.
However, it was obvious that this situation didn't happen.
The Nine Poison Valley, the Ancient Pagoda Lineage, and the Hundred Cities Alliance really only stayed here for 100,000 years! "
Gu Xuan finally came to his own conclusion.
The flow of time in the Sword Tomb was different from the outside world! One year in the Sword Tomb was more than ten years in the outside world! Therefore, the people of the three major factions had only stayed here for 100,000 years, but more than a million years had passed in the outside world.
Gu Xuan glanced at the Tower Master subtly and suddenly felt that he was very pitiful.
He really wanted to tell the Tower Master that the times had changed.
However, after thinking about it, this seemed too cruel.
"Let's wait until we find the exit.
If I say it now, not only will it increase the sadness, but it might also increase the scars. "
Gu Xuan thought in his heart.
With the Tower Master's temper, even if he said it, the Tower Master probably wouldn't believe him. The Tower Master would think that he was deliberately taking revenge by saying such a clumsy lie to tease him.
In a rage, the Tower Master would definitely beat him up.
Gu Xuan couldn't accept being beaten up for no reason.
"Moreover, I have a faint feeling that things aren't so simple.
Everything will only be revealed when we find the exit. "
Gu Xuan still held his chin as a look of uneasiness flashed through his eyes.
"Right, Gu Xuan brat, why are you suddenly curious about the Seven Star Realm 100,000 years ago?"
The Tower Master suddenly asked when he saw that Gu Xuan did not speak for a long time.
Gu Xuan shook his head.
"Nothing, just asking.
Actually, what I'm most concerned about is the exit.
Even if you were unconscious for 100,000 years, you weren't unconscious when you just came in, right?
The three of you Paragons added up and couldn't find a way out?
Isn't this a little too much? "
Gu Xuan changed the topic without batting an eyelid.
"I fell into a trap not long after I came in and fell into a coma. What's so strange about not finding a way out?
It's those two idiots from Nine Poison Valley and Hundred Cities Alliance who couldn't find a way out for 100,000 years. What two idiots! Am I right? "
The Tower Master had a righteous look on his face.
Gu Xuan raised his brow.
You have the cheek to call them idiots?
Where's your shame?
No matter how stupid they are, they were awake for 100,000 years, unlike you who was unconscious for 100,000 years.
Of course, he could not say that.
Gu Xuan gave the Tower Master a thumbs up.
"You're right, you're right! I'm speechless! "
The Tower Master snorted. "Of course I'm right."
He ignored Gu Xuan.
A minute later, the two arrived at the first level of the ancient tower.
The two major restrictions here, the gravity restriction and the amplification restriction, were still there, just a little weaker.
There were traces of battle everywhere, indicating that there had been a fierce battle here.
Elder Bai and the snake immortal's bodies were riddled with holes in the corner. It was too horrible to look at.
The snake immortal was fine, only one arm and one leg were broken, and there were a few fist-sized bloody holes in his chest.
Elder Bai was miserable. There was no good skin on his face, and both his arms and legs were gone. He was completely unrecognizable.
Obviously, he had been tortured inhumanly when he was alive, and even had his corpse whipped to vent his anger after death.
Gu Xuan took a deep breath and glanced at the faces of the disciples of the ancient tower.
These were a group of ruthless people! And now, these ruthless people were gathered at the entrance, looking out of the ancient tower with angry faces.
The protective light shield outside was still there, and no one could break in.
However, there were still people bombarding the light shield, trying to destroy the protective formation.
Obviously, Elder Fenglei and the others who rushed out in anger did not succeed in stopping them.
The Pagoda Master frowned. With a flash of his body, he flew out.
Gu Xuan glanced outside, and his pupils could not help but shrink.
There was a Perfection-stage expert outside the light shield!
