"Yes, when it comes to being powerful, the guarding beast of this ancient tower can definitely be called that."
Qin Zheng also agreed with Chu Xiaojing's words.
As for other Qiankun Sect disciples, this is even more true.
They were still trembling in their hearts when they thought of the terror of those strange beasts.
"Everyone, could you tell me something about the strange beasts guarded by this ancient tower?"
Lu Qing was very interested in this.
How powerful the beast is, which makes the elite disciples of these major sects change their expressions.
Furthermore, even powerful monks like Qin Zheng in the late Golden Core stage are unable to contend with the beasts, and their level must have reached the Golden Core realm or above.
I don’t know if there is witch essence blood in his body.
"The guarding beasts of the ancient tower are extremely powerful. They are still at the Golden Core level, but their physical bodies are incredibly powerful.
In addition, the spiritual energy of this secret realm is thin and the space rules are unusual. Our Taoist power is greatly weakened.
It is almost impossible to cause substantial damage to those strange beasts when attacking them.
On the contrary, their pure physical power is extremely terrifying.
As long as we, the monks, are hit, we will not be killed or injured.
Junior Sister Qingzhu’s formation was completely destroyed by a strange ape beast. "
Qin Zheng said solemnly.
"Yes, the body of that ape and beast is extremely powerful. With just a few movements of its hands, it can easily explode the atmosphere and split mountains and rivers.
And his combat intuition is very sharp.
After a flaw appeared in our formation, it was immediately noticed.
Me and Zixiao were almost killed by its fist and almost exploded to death! "
Ye Qingzhu also spoke with lingering fear.
The faces of Zixiao and others on the side were even a little pale.
Thinking about the horror of the apes and strange beasts, it left quite a shadow on their hearts.
"So scary? You should really experience it." Lu Qing said with a smile.
"Chen Daoyou want to break into this ancient pagoda?" Qin Zheng asked.
"It's not possible to break in, but according to Taoist friends, since this ancient tower may be related to our way out of the secret realm, we have to go and take a look."
"Yes, staying in this valley is not an option. With the 'mountain air', we can't stay in the secret realm for too long. We have to find a way out."
Qin Zheng nodded and agreed with Lu Qing's statement.
He pondered for a moment and then said: "In that case, let me accompany you, Fellow Daoist Chen, to take a look. More people always bring more power."
Qin Zheng had long known from Chu Xiaojing and others that Lu Qing's strength was amazing. Even Li Motian, who had fallen into the devil's path and whose strength might have reached the late stage of Jindan, was killed by him.
So even though the aura that Lu Qing is revealing now is only at the initial stage of the Golden Core.
Qin Zheng did not feel that he was overestimating his abilities by wanting to see the strange beasts guarding the ancient pagoda.
"That's fine, let's go there after Miss Ye and fellow Taoist Zixiao recover a little."
Lu Qing did not refuse. After all, these Qiankun Sect disciples have been here for a while and know the place far better than he does.
Immediately, after Ye Qingzhu and the others adjusted their breath for another half a day, a group of Qiankun Sect disciples dismantled the formations arranged around the valley, and then everyone headed towards the ancient pagoda.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, are there no strange beasts in this dense forest?"
Everyone quickly shuttled through the dense forest, approaching the ancient pagoda, and Lu Qing asked.
"There will be some ordinary strange beasts coming out, but the guardian beasts of the ancient pagoda seem to be restricted by some rules and will not stay away from the vicinity of the ancient tower easily. Otherwise, we might all have died there that day."
"I see." Lu Qing nodded.
No wonder he and the Five Treasures Taoist priests did not encounter any powerful beasts when they were traveling through the forest.
"And the guardian beasts of the ancient pagoda are divided into different levels.
The alien beasts on the periphery are generally only at the level of the Golden Core realm. The closer they are to the ancient tower, the stronger the beasts are.
The ones guarding the entrance of the ancient pagoda are even more powerful beasts in the later stages of the Golden Core.
Hence, it is extremely difficult to enter the ancient pagoda. Currently, there are only the top forces such as Overlord Clan, Tianjian Sect, Daoxu Temple and Biluo Palace.
Relying on the powerful sect magic weapon, he withstood the attacks of strange beasts and entered the ancient pagoda.
However, they could not stay in the ancient tower for long before they were forced to withdraw.
Just what is in the tower, the forces that have entered are tight-lipped and unwilling to reveal it. "
Qin Zheng revealed some more information.
"It seems that the opportunities in the ancient pagoda are not trivial, otherwise these big forces would not still be around."
Lu Qing understood that those big forces should not have passed the test of the ancient pagoda, otherwise they would not still be lurking nearby.
While the two of them were exchanging information, something suddenly became clear.
But they had already left the dense forest and arrived in front of a vast plain.
In the center of the plain, there is an extremely majestic and simple tower, sitting on the earth, exuding an ancient and vast atmosphere.
Just looking at it makes people feel intimidated and makes them feel their own insignificance.
In addition, what is equally eye-catching is the figure standing on the plain.
The smallest one is more than ten feet tall, and the largest one is more than ten feet tall. It can be called a giant.
Their shapes are also different, including apes, tigers, black wolves, white elephants, etc.
Without exception, the auras emitted by these strange beasts are extremely powerful.
That surging energy and blood, even from a long distance, makes people feel like they are next to a stove, feeling hot.
"Is this the guardian beast of the ancient pagoda?"
Lu Qing looked at those powerful figures and finally understood why Zi Xiao and the others changed their expressions about this.
It is true that the aura emitted by these strange beasts is too powerful, even he must pay attention to it.
Especially the ones closest to the ancient pagoda were the largest, with a figure of more than ten feet, which made him feel heart palpitations.
"Yes, these are the guardian beasts of this place." Qin Zheng said solemnly.
He looked at the two pools of blood on the ground not far ahead, with a trace of sadness in his eyes.
"That day, Junior Sister Qingzhu and the others were defeated by the two-foot-tall ape in the middle."
Ye Qingzhu and others also looked sad at this time.
Because the two pools of blood on the ground were left by Zhao Gang and Wang Ming.
Lu Qing's eyes fell on the ape Qin Zheng was talking about.
There are a total of eighteen strange beasts on this plain.
Among them, there are two heads of apes and strange beasts. As Qin Zheng said, that is the smaller one, which is more than two feet tall.
Hands are thick and long, and the whole body is covered with wire-like jet black hair. Only the top of the head is covered with a streak of long snow-white hair.
As for the other ape, it is located at the innermost position and is more than ten feet tall.
It is completely snow-white and is one of the three beasts with the most powerful aura.
These strange beasts all stood on the plain and did not move.
There was no reaction to the arrival of Lu Qing and others.
It seems that as long as Lu Qing and others are not close to the ancient pagoda, they will not make any move.
After Lu Qing raised this question, Qin Zheng nodded and said:
"Yes, these guardian beasts seem to be restricted by certain rules, and will only attack creatures that step into their guarding range.
The most powerful aliens in the innermost The beasts will only attack when they are close to the entrance of the ancient pagoda.
We reached the middle position that day, and it was quite smooth at first.
However, the losers accidentally stepped into the area of several other beasts, which greatly increased the pressure on us, and we were finally defeated. ”
“I see, every strange beast has its own area to guard.” Lu Qing understood.
He felt it and found that the space above him had become stagnant to an exaggerated level.
Just as he expected, when he got here, he was completely unable to use the flying technique.
Fortunately, when standing on the ground, the impact is not too big. Otherwise, let alone breaking into the tower, it would be difficult to move in the weaker Golden Core realm.
After understanding the general situation, Lu Qing turned on his superpower and looked at the strange beasts.
After a while, a flash of realization flashed in his eyes.
"Eighteen strange beasts, divided into three levels.
The outermost nine-headed beasts are all at the initial level of the Golden Core and are the weakest.
The six strange beasts in the middle are at the middle level of the Golden Core Realm and are powerful.
As for the three innermost beasts guarding the entrance of the ancient pagoda, they are all powerful beasts in the late Golden Core stage.
And it is true that as Qin Zheng said, these guardian beasts are bound by the ancient tower.
Can only guard around the ancient tower and cannot move at will.
It is said to be a guardian beast, but in fact it is more like a puppet controlled by the ancient pagoda. 》
Looking at the many messages that appeared in his field of vision, Lu Qing suddenly understood the origin of these strange beasts.
What surprised him even more was that the bodies of these strange beasts also contained the blood of witchcraft.
"Someone appeared on the edge of the ancient pagoda plain. They are people from the Qiankun Sect!"
While Lu Qing was observing the guarding strange beasts, many people also discovered their traces in the dense forest.
The ancient pagoda is of great importance, but people are watching it all the time.
In addition, since they found out that these guardian beasts would not leave the vicinity of the ancient pagoda at will, many forces have chosen to lurk in the dense forests on the edge of the plain.
So when Lu Qing and the others appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of the forces lurking nearby.
"Did the people of the Qiankun Sect want to break into the tower, but didn't they just return with a disastrous defeat a few days ago and lost the lives of several disciples?"
“Yes, at that time they joined forces with the Gongshujia people, and they all failed to break into the tower. Now it seems that the Gongshujia people are not there. Could it be that they were too reckless to try to break into the tower with their own strength!”
"Have you not seen what happened that day? On that day, the Qiankun Sect and the Gongshu Family teamed up to break into the tower. As a result, the Gongshu Sect's people escaped and left the Qiankun Sect's people behind, which resulted in the Qiankun Sect's casualties."
“This is the case, the people of this public loser are not kind!”
“The public loser is not very good at what he does, so what’s the wonder.”
h Even so, it would be unwise for the Qiankun Sect to break into the tower again. Without the strongest warriors at the ninth level of the Golden Core, there is no way they can pass the level of the three strange beasts at the end. Qin Zheng, who is only at the eighth level of the Golden Core, cannot protect his junior brothers and sisters."
"Let's take a look first. Maybe the Qiankun Sect has other ideas. If it can find a way for us, that would be great." We have an opportunity. "
"Look, the people from the Qiankun Sect seem to be taking action!"
On the other side, Qin Zheng was also looking at Lu Qing in surprise: "Fellow Daoist Chen, what are you talking about, you want to break into the tower alone?"
“No, Brother Chen, this is too dangerous!” Chu Xiaojing shouted.
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Chen, we know that you are very powerful, but these strange beasts are not easy to deal with. Coupled with the weirdness of this secret realm, it is too risky for you to break into the tower alone."
Ye Qingzhu also tried his best to persuade.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, you should think twice!" Zi Xiao said anxiously.
As for the rest of the Qiankun Sect disciples, they looked at Lu Qing in disbelief.
It seemed that this man was so courageous that he dared to break into this dragon's den alone.
"You have all misunderstood." Faced with everyone's worries and persuasion, Lu Qing said helplessly, "I just said that I wanted to test the strength of these strange beasts on the periphery, not to break into the tower alone."
"That is also very dangerous. , these alien beasts in the periphery do not act alone. Every time, at least three alien beasts will take action.
These alien beasts are extremely powerful. Even if they are only at the initial level of the Golden Core, it is difficult for our Taoist magic weapons to cause substantial damage to them.
Fellow Taoist, if you enter alone, once you are surrounded, you may not be able to resist.
It's better that we go in together, at least we can all take care of each other. ”
Qin Zheng did not agree to Lu Qing’s proposal because of this, but instead started to persuade him.
"This is not possible." Lu Qing shook his head and said, "Miss Ye and the others have not fully recovered from their injuries, so they cannot continue to fight fiercely. Otherwise, if they are injured again, it will damage their roots and it will be even more difficult to recover."
Seeing that several people wanted to persuade, Lu Qing waved his hand: "I understand everyone's worries, but don't worry, I don't have any other skills, but I still have some means to save my life. If I really can't hold on, I won't hold on."
"As long as I want to leave, I'm just a few strange beasts in the first stage of the Golden Core. They can't keep me."
Feeling the determination in Lu Qing's words, Qin Zheng and the others didn't know what to say for a moment.
They knew that Lu Qing had already made up his mind, and further persuasion was useless.
At their level of cultivation, their Taoist minds are very firm.
Once something is determined, it is almost difficult to be changed by the outside world.
"In this case, please be more careful, Fellow Daoist Chen. If anything goes wrong, don't hesitate and flee immediately. As long as you escape from the plain, those strange beasts will no longer pursue you."
After understanding Lu Qing's determination, Qin Zheng could only say in the end.
Lu Qing smiled and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I cherish my life very much. I will never make fun of my own life. If anything goes wrong, I will make sure to escape faster than anyone else."
"Then I will rob the formation for Daoyou Chen here."
Qin Zheng decided that if Lu Qing really encounters any danger, he will immediately help.
"Brother Chen, be careful!"
In this way, under the worried eyes of the disciples of the Qiankun Sect, Lu Qing walked slowly across the plain.
