Chapter 176: Linglong Tower's Demon Bloodline Revealed
"Captain, we have been walking for so many days, and we haven't even seen the shadow of a spiritual treasure, let alone spiritual herbs. What kind of secret realm is this?" Kong Sheng grumbled with resentment, his face full of depression. You know, it has been a full half month since the last time a spiritual treasure was found! People from all the major sects also scattered around to search like headless flies. As a result, not only did they not find the spiritual treasure, but even the other people in the lower world disappeared without a trace.
After listening to Kong Sheng's complaints, Lu Wan couldn't help but wonder. According to common sense, there shouldn't be only one treasure in this secret realm, but the treasure-hunting mouse searched for a long time and didn't find any trace of other treasures. So what exactly are they looking for?
At this moment, Lei Ze, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly shouted, "Listen, there seems to be an earthquake!"
"Earthquake?" Kong Sheng looked confused. "I was wondering why I felt dizzy. It really was an earthquake! What on earth is going on? Can earthquakes also happen in the secret realm?"
Hearing this, the others stopped and stood together, all looking into the distance. On the distant horizon, a tall tower was slowly rising, as if it had emerged from the ground.
"Look over there, what is that!" Jiang Baiqi narrowed his eyes, stared at the tall tower that was gradually becoming clearer, and shouted out loud.
"It's the Linglong Tower! Come on! This is a divine artifact, a Linglong Tower that only appears once in a hundred years. If you practice in it for one day, it is equivalent to practicing outside for a year. Moreover, the real treasures are all inside the tower!" Lei Ze said excitedly.
"Linglong Tower? Could it be that this trip to the secret realm is to search for treasure inside the tower, rather than in the secret realm?" Lu Wan asked
"Yes and no, actually I don't know either. I just heard from others that there are all kinds of things. The treasure is real, it just depends on luck, but this Linglong Tower is real. It only appears once a hundred years, and it is not fixed. It may not appear in any secret realm." Lei Ze scratched his head and said innocently.
Lu Wan looked at the others and said, "Let's go and take a look too."
Everyone nodded, "Maybe we can try our luck and get some treasures."
Everyone quickly headed towards the Linglong Tower. They thought it was not far away, but found out it was very far away. They thought they could explore the secret realm in half a month, but found out it was so big. It took them another five days to reach the Linglong Tower.
Looking at the people sitting on the ground in front of the tower, Lu Wan and his companions were puzzled. They looked at the open door in front of the tower. Why didn't they go in to practice but stayed outside?
Kong Sheng looked at Lei Ze with suspicion and was about to ask him questions when suddenly, a deep voice sounded not far away.
"There is evil energy in the Linglong Tower. If your body cannot withstand it, how can you go in to practice? The evil energy inside the tower is a hundred times stronger than outside!"
The person who spoke was the cultivator closest to them. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at Kong Sheng and Lei Ze with a serious expression.
After hearing this, Kong Sheng's doubts grew stronger. He turned to look at Lei Ze, hoping to get some explanation from him.
However, before Lei Ze could answer, he saw other practitioners standing up and walking towards the gate.
These people seemed to not care about what the cultivator had just said. They took firm steps without hesitation.
What’s even more strange is that when these people were still some distance away from the gate, they suddenly evaporated and disappeared out of thin air!
"This..." Kong Sheng was stunned with his mouth open wide enough for an egg to fit in.
He stared with wide eyes, looking at the scene happening before his eyes in disbelief, totally unaware of what was going on.
Seeing this, Lei Ze quickly explained: "They must have absorbed all the evil spirits outside the tower, so they were teleported into the tower. Let's sit down and absorb them quickly, otherwise it will be too late."
Lu Wan stood outside and looked at the tall Linglong Tower. Evil spirit? Indeed, the Linglong Tower was glittering with golden light to the naked eye, but it was surrounded by black and red gas. Was this evil spirit?
Lu Wan stretched out his hand and tapped the gas in front of him, but unexpectedly the gas immediately penetrated into Lu Wan's body. This was not evil energy, but demonic energy!
Ever since the demon bloodline was stimulated, Lu Wan felt that he also had demon bloodline in his body. He was obviously a human, so how could he have these two bloodlines?
Looking at the other people who were sitting down to practice, demonic energy was entering their bodies. A small amount of demonic energy would not affect anything, but if a large amount of demonic energy... then they would be possessed by demons!
Just as I thought of it, I heard a bang from the front. There was an explosion, followed by a series of explosions.
Everyone quickly withdrew from their practice.
"what happened?"
"Humph, what else could it be? I swallowed too much evil energy and my body exploded."
"Bloody body?" Jiang Baiqi also looked in confusion at the direction of the explosions in front of him, and then looked at Lu Wan, "Captain, this..."
Lu Wan nodded and said, "You'd better not absorb it. This is not a good thing."
Jiang Baiqi quickly interrupted the others' practice and explained the reason.
"Is it so serious? How can we go in and look for treasure?" Mo Yan asked
"You will practice outside for a few days. This power can enhance your physical fitness. Remember, practice within your ability. If you feel something is wrong, quit the practice immediately," Lu Wan said.
"What about you, Captain?" Mo Yan asked, as if he was abandoning them.
"I'll go in and take a look, maybe they are inside," Lu Wan said
??? Everyone looked puzzled, "Boss! Will you be okay?"
Lu Wan smiled and shook his head. Ever since he stood here, the demonic energy nearby had been rushing into his body. It felt like he was about to break through in the next second. It was an unprecedented feeling. Was he about to awaken his demon bloodline?
"Okay, be careful." Everyone nodded and looked at Lu Wan's gradually disappearing figure.
Everyone sat on the ground again and began to practice. Jiang Baiqi opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Linglong Tower, then glanced at the others, then closed his eyes and began to practice.
At this moment, inside the Linglong Tower, as soon as Lu Wan entered the tower, he entered into a formation. He could clearly feel that there were many people around him, but there was no one in front of him.
"Is this... a field? It doesn't look like a formation." Lu Wan said to himself. Just as he took a step forward, he saw a group of people walking out in front of him, rushing towards him with murderous looks on their faces. Lu Wan hurriedly prepared to respond, but as soon as he released his spiritual power, the people disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
"What's going on?" Lu Wan turned around and looked around. There were clearly human presences here, and there were many of them. Could it be...
Lu Wan closed his eyes and used his spiritual power to sense everything around him. There seemed to be the sounds of wind, rain, swords and spears, as well as the roars of monsters and the sounds of beatings and scolding. He frowned.
"Brother!! You are so scared! Get out of the way!"
As soon as I heard a word next to my ear, I felt myself being pulled to run.
Lu Wan opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him. It was a man in tattered clothes... who was pulling him and running wildly.
"You are finally awake. I thought you were scared silly. To be honest, I was almost scared to death just now. The monster must be as powerful as a demon king. Only you dare to take action. Now that we have the demon egg, we don't have to worry about not being able to complete the task." said the man.
Only then did Lu Wan see everything clearly. The sky was pitch black, and there was a demonic aura everywhere. The man in front of him had a pair of demon horns, and he was holding a huge red demon egg in his arms. A beast roared behind him. He turned around and saw a huge demon beast roaring angrily.
