Chapter 816: Seeking Skin with the Tiger

Zou Dui and Guan Pianqi walked into the entrance of the giant tower. Zou Dui swept around, and finally his gaze fell not far ahead, on a passage of stone steps. Except for this passage, the whole floor is as wide as a small town, and there is nothing but shadows filling the space.

Guan Pianqi was also observing the first floor of the giant tower, and she said, "This is a typical tomb tower?"

Zou Dui was stunned: "Curtain Tower?"

Guan Pianqi nodded and explained: "That's right, the tomb tower is different from the ordinary pagoda, and the purpose of the construction is to use it as a tomb, so except for the top floor, there is almost no need to place anything on the other floors. ”

Zou Dui was puzzled: "Since it is only used as a tomb, it is enough to build one or two floors, isn't it a waste to build so many layers?"

Guan Pian said with a smile: "This is built to show the identity and status of the tomb owner, and the second is that the higher the tomb tower is built, the closer it is to the sky, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, and making the tomb owner immortal for thousands of years." I've heard there are other reasons, but that's all I know. However, since it is a tomb tower, it is inevitable that there may be mechanisms and the like, so we have to be careful. ”

"Is that so? It's funny......

Zou Dui listened to Guan Pianqiu's detailed explanation, nodded suddenly, and had already walked to the front of the passage.

Zou Dui observed and found that there was nothing strange about it, so he immediately did not hesitate, and followed the stone steps all the way up, heading up.

After Zou Dui and Guan Pianqi entered the tomb tower, the journey was basically smooth. The tomb towers on the first few floors are very large and very empty, and there is not even a ghost to be seen. Zou Dui is not surprised by this, Sima Qingyun and the others who entered the tomb tower in front of them are not good people, even if there are organs and prohibitions on these layers, they have all been completely cracked.

Continuing to walk up, Zou Dui found that the higher he went, the more traces of this battle there were, judging from the traces of the monster corpses and other traces left behind, the battle was gradually escalating, it seemed that this tomb tower had been occupied by monsters, and these monsters were not like the monsters they had encountered before, they could only walk in the black mist.

The higher you go, the more traces of the battle there are, and the corpses of the monsters can be seen everywhere. Gradually, Zou Dui discovered that the monsters were not completely grouped, and they were also fighting and killing each other.

The tomb tower is very tall, but the number of floors is not very large, but each floor is built high, and the space inside is so large that the stone steps leading to the upper floor are as long as a ladder.

After walking for a long time, Zou Dui and Guan Pianqi finally entered the sixth floor of the tomb tower. Zou Dui found that the corpses of the monsters began to decrease, but the volume became larger and larger, and the corpses of each monster were placed in the Silent Heaven Trench, which was the material of the monster leader, but here it was as worthless as cabbage, and it was easy to die.

And Zou Dui also began to find faint traces of blood left by the human race, obviously Sima Qingyun and others were injured.

Zou Dui's brows sank, Sima Qingyun and his party are all top masters of the Great Dry Martial Arts, and now they are already injured, do they really have the strength to go to the top of the tower?

His brows twisted, Zou Dui's heart became more and more anxious, he didn't stop for a moment, and continued to march towards the upper floor of the tomb tower with Guan Pianqi.

Successfully entering the seventh floor of the tomb tower, Zou Dui and Guan Pianqi did not find any surprises, but the two corpses caught their attention.

One corpse was so soft as mud that its bones had been shattered, and the other had all its limbs severed and its blood had dried up. Zou Dui's brows sank, and when he went up to take a closer look, he couldn't help but be surprised, because these two corpses were none other than the patriarchs of the Zhao family and the Li family among the three major families!

Zou Dui frowned calmly and said puzzledly: "The strength of the patriarchs of the three major families is slightly inferior to that of Sima Qingyun and other masters, but they are really not weak, what kind of monster did they encounter, and they actually let the patriarchs of the Zhao family and the Li family die here?"

Guan Pianqi glanced at the two corpses a few times and said, "I feel that the heads of the Zhao family and the Li family are not dying at the hands of monsters, but more like dying at the hands of the Terran masters. ”

Zou Dui was surprised: "Could it be that in addition to Sima Qingyun, there are other people who have entered the illusion realm?"

Guan Pian shook his head and said, "It's not clear, but I don't rule out this possibility." ”

Zou Dui nodded, and continued to walk upwards with Guan Pian, but became more vigilant.

Along the way, except for the corpses of various monsters, there were no corpses in sight. Zou Dui and Guan Pianjiao did not relax at all, and walked forward cautiously, and soon entered the eighth floor of the tomb tower.

In the eighth layer, Zou Dui saw the person he knew again, but it was the head of the Zhu family among the three major families.

"You...... You're not dead......"

The patriarch of the Zhu family, who was lying on the ground, was very surprised when he saw Zou Dui, but then he smiled bitterly, and before he finished speaking, he opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Zou Dui found that the current situation of the Zhu family patriarch was extremely bad, there was a big wound on his abdomen, blood stained his robe, and his face was no longer bloodless.

Although I don't know what happened to the Zhu family patriarch, if the Zhu family patriarch was an ordinary person at this time, he would have died I don't know how many times. The patriarch of the Zhu family obviously knew that his life was short, and he was about to die, and his words were also kind, and his expression and tone at this time were extremely gentle, without the slightest hint of the fierce and vicious when he escorted Zou Dui.

"We thought you were missing, but we didn't expect you to go back and save him......"

The gaze of the Zhu family patriarch crossed Zou Dui and fell on Guan Pianqi behind Zou Dui.

In any case, the Zhu family patriarch and Zou Dui were in a hostile relationship, and Zou Dui didn't want to waste too much time on the Zhu family patriarch, so he took two steps forward and said coldly: "Do you need me to help you end the pain completely?"

The patriarch of the Zhu family sighed, nodded, and said, "Thank you...... I didn't expect that in the end, I calculated someone else's life, but now I am being calculated by others, and in the end, I have to rely on your hand to help me end the pain......"

Zou Dui was puzzled: "You have been calculated?"

The patriarch of the Zhu family nodded: "Our three major families have been calculated by the three major sects, and after the map is in hand, we will have no effect, and they naturally don't want us to divide their benefits...... It's just ridiculous that the three of us don't have the corresponding strength, but we can't do our best to conspire with the tiger, and finally end up in this sad end......"

When Zou Dui heard this, he already understood that Sima Qingyun and the others must have suddenly attacked the patriarchs of the three major families to reduce the manpower to carve up the last benefits. Zou Dui asked with concern, "Is Xiaohuan okay?"

The patriarch of the Zhu family said: "Are you talking about which little girl Sima Qingyun has always carried? Don't worry, she is extremely important to Sima Qingyun, and Sima Qingyun will not let her be hurt." ”
