In the main hall of the Imperishable Ancient Tower.
The atmosphere suddenly became so awkward that one could hear a pin drop.
Finally, the Pagoda Master coughed.
"I think, maybe, the situation won't be so bad?"
The Pagoda Master's voice was weak.
Gu Xuan patted the Pagoda Master's shoulder and chuckled.
"Let's not talk about those people who play with poison. Let's talk about you, Pagoda Master.
You entered the secret realm with your enemy, and there's only one door that leads out.
That door is the kind that can be smashed with a slap.
After a fight, you'll find the door first. After you get out, will you leave immediately, or will you smash the door and trap your enemy? "
The Pagoda Master's mouth twitched.
"If I get there first, smashing the door is already a light punishment.
I'll set up an inescapable net to kill that bastard and step on his corpse! "
The Pagoda Master couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Even an upright and upright gentleman like him, who could be said to be a model of morality, was like this. Those people who played with poison would probably use even more sinister tricks, right?
Gu Xuan smiled faintly and clapped. "Congratulations, Pagoda Master. You're right!"
"Yes my ass. If you had the time to talk so much nonsense, you should've put a knife to my neck and forced me to leave! I'll deal with you later! Disciples of the Imperishable Ancient Tower, follow me out of the tower! "
The Pagoda Master was flustered and exasperated. He was the first to fly out of the Imperishable Ancient Tower.
Everyone quickly followed.
Gu Xuan also walked out of the Imperishable Ancient Tower.
He was very calm.
Although what he said just now sounded serious, and it was true, he wasn't too worried.
What a joke. So what if they played with poison?
He was an Elixir Emperor! He was a peerless genius whose martial strength was close to the Great Perfection Realm. The quality of his soul was comparable to a Great Perfection Realm cultivator! After spending twenty days in seclusion, Gu Xuan had already comprehended all the things he had learned during this period of time.
If he fully displayed the improvements he had made in the past twenty days, the Pagoda Master, who had already been shocked before, would be shocked again.
After everyone left the tower, the Pagoda Master chanted a spell. The Imperishable Ancient Tower shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye and landed in his hand.
In a flash, it fused into his flesh and disappeared without a trace.
The Pagoda Master waved his hand, and the group of people rushed to the Wasteland.
In this hasty movement, the formation of the group of martial artists seemed to be scattered, but Gu Xuan discovered something unusual from it.
Whether it was the Pagoda Master, Elder Feng Lei, Elder Liu Jie, or the others, they all intentionally or unintentionally protected Huang Naihan.
Even the Pagoda Master's personal disciple, Feng Yu, was surrounded by a group of mid-level and high-level saints. He didn't receive the same treatment as Huang Naihan.
This made Gu Xuan curious about Huang Naihan.
This Huang Naihan was a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. His face was simple and honest, just like his name.
If he was thrown into a crowd, he would definitely be ignored. He would be the one with the least sense of existence.
How could he receive such preferential treatment?
Gu Xuan couldn't help but think back to the time when the black-clothed masked man went to the ninth floor of the Immortal Ancient Pagoda. When he chased after him, it was Huang Naihan who sent him off.
At that time, Gu Xuan was suspicious. Huang Naihan was just an ordinary disciple and a mid-level saint. Why was he able to open all the restrictions freely?
From the looks of it, Huang Naihan's identity shouldn't be ordinary.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be given such preferential treatment.
"Could it be, could it be …" Without needing to investigate, Gu Xuan already had a guess.
Back then, when he first entered the first floor of the Sword Tomb, he met Ke Xiaodu in the Wasteland.
Ke Xiaodu appeared immediately. His initial thought should be to recruit him, but when he saw that Jiang Yi was just a low-level saint, he thought that Jiang Yi had mistakenly entered this place and wanted to kill Jiang Yi.
Gu Xuan guessed that the reason for recruiting Jiang Yi should be that Ke Xiaodu wanted to find a martial artist proficient in the space-time dao.
In order to enter the Sword Tomb, there must be a martial artist proficient in the space-time dao to pave the way. This was a publicly known fact.
In order to go out, such a talent was also needed.
"Huang Naihan should be the martial artist most proficient in the space-time dao in the ancient pagoda lineage.
Therefore, he is being guarded so strictly.
A mid-level saint should be a facade.
His true strength and the space-time power in his body must have been concealed using a sealing technique. "
Gu Xuan guessed in his heart.
Soon enough, the group appeared in the Wasteland.
But once they appeared, everyone's face changed.
"Don't breathe, even your pores are closed! Circulate the energy protection and don't slack off! "
The Pagoda Master's face was ashen.
"That group of filthy trash is indeed despicable! They actually used the poison mist to envelop this huge Wasteland.
It is so dark that we can't even see our fingers.
It is a pity that the range of the poison mist is too big and the toxicity isn't enough. Can it do anything to us? "
Gu Xuan didn't have any intention to defend against the poison mist. He still breathed normally and checked the surroundings.
"Don't be careless. The poison mist below is indeed not toxic enough.
But don't forget that we are flying towards the sky. The closer we are to the four words floating in the sky, the more concentrated the poison will be. There might even be other dangers.
In order to make the best use of time, let me pave the way! "
Gu Xuan's figure moved and flew towards the sky.
"Follow!"
The Pagoda Master didn't hesitate. Gu Xuan had the Poison Immunity Dragon Pearl. Unless Ke Jiuji made a move personally, no poison could do anything to him.
Elder Zephyr and the others quickly followed Gu Xuan and flew towards the sky.
The Pagoda Master flew at the back, guarding against any hidden dangers among the poisonous creatures and attacking the disciples at the crucial moment.
A few minutes later, Gu Xuan and the others were already high up in the sky.
The poison mist here was more than a few times thicker.
In fact, there were many poisonous bees and poisonous birds that attacked from time to time. It seemed like they wanted to slow down the Ancient Pagoda lineage's martial artists.
Unfortunately, with Gu Xuan paving the way, any poisonous creatures would be shot to death before they could get close.
In the air, the words "Sword Tomb Cave Abode" hung high in the air. They were about ten feet away from Gu Xuan.
This should be the limit.
A terrifying pressure was coming from the four words. If they wanted to fly higher, they would probably be attacked.
However, even without the terrifying pressure, no one would fly up again.
Because, beside the four words, there was an even more terrifying phantom of a tomb floating.
On the tomb, the immortal sword emitted a chilling aura that was enough to make a low-level saint collapse on the spot.
"Gu Xuan kid, I'll show you now!"
The Pagoda Master's voice suddenly sounded.
Whoosh! Two talismans flew out from the Pagoda Master's hands, one on the left and one on the right. They flew past Gu Xuan and landed on the two words' Cave Dwelling '.
Weng Weng! Above the word 'cave', two deeply hidden runes were vaguely revealed, as if they were attracted by the energy.
"Space-time Talisman, activate!"
The Pagoda Master roared again.
The two talismans suddenly lit up and released a strong space-time power ripple.
Two almost identical space-time power shot out, one on the left and one on the right, landing on the two faintly visible runes.
The void within a few dozen feet shook.
Less than ten feet in front of Gu Xuan, a space-time door suddenly appeared.
Inside the door, there was an endless whirlpool.
Within the whirlpool, one could faintly see a space-time tunnel that led to an unknown distance.
Gu Xuan didn't hesitate and flew in.
The rest of the people behind him followed closely behind.
After a moment of dizziness, everyone felt their feet sink and they were already standing on solid ground.
The second level of the Sword Tomb Cave Dwelling, arrived! This was a huge underground karst cave.
There was a cover above and stone walls all around. There were all kinds of strange stalactites hanging on the walls. They were like ferocious beasts that were roaring and threatening to attack people.
Gu Xuan, the Pagoda Master, and the others were now in the center of the karst cave, on an irregular round platform.
Around the round platform, there were rivers that emitted hot air.
What flowed in the rivers wasn't water, but magma, black magma! There was only one way to leave the round platform, which was to follow the river and go deeper into the karst cave.
This scene wasn't considered scary.
But everyone's expression wasn't good.
Because each of them seemed to be carrying a mountain on their backs.
"What a strong Sky Restriction! It's impossible to fly here! "
Gu Xuan looked ahead.
In front of him, there was only one path, and it was a path that had been taken by the Nine Poison Valley martial artists. He was afraid it wouldn't be easy to walk!
