Chapter 169 Eternal Sleep
"So all the demons that came in died in the cave?"
Looking at the corpses, Li Xin couldn't help but speak.
Ye Tian shook his head, "That's hard to say, it's better to be careful."
As he spoke, he did not forget to put the demon's corpse into the different space.
"Keep walking in!"
The wide crack began to narrow, and a gray light shone from the front.
The light intensity was weak, but it was clearly visible in the dark cave.
"woooooo"
A slight whistling sound came from all directions.
It was nothing like the previous scream, it was more like the wind blowing.
"Everyone be careful."
Ye Tian reminded softly and took the lead to step forward.
He knew what was coming.
But after all, it is just a memory, and no one knows what will happen in reality. What if unexpected changes occur?
While moving forward slowly, Ye Tian did not forget to count the time silently in his heart.
"It's almost time, everyone hold on to the people around you."
The women obeyed and did as they were told.
A purple light illuminated the cave, and then everyone disappeared.
After a few breaths.
"Woo——"
The terrifying scream sounded again.
However, those who have already entered the different space naturally don’t have to worry about this.
"Fortunately, the captain's spirit furnace is connected to the alien space, otherwise it would be quite troublesome for us to explore the situation in the cave."
Mina made no secret of her admiration.
Ye Tian shook his head gently, "Everyone should take a break, we only have a quarter of an hour."
The women collected their thoughts, sat cross-legged and began to rest.
Time flies too.
When they returned to the cave again, the terrifying sound waves had disappeared, and there was enough time to explore before the next scream sounded.
Continue to advance forward a hundred feet.
The gray light became clearer.
Turning the corner of the passage, everyone suddenly stood there with their eyes wide open.
"What is that?!"
The scene before my eyes was truly too surprising.
The narrow passage suddenly opened up, and a huge cave came into view. The height alone was at least a hundred meters.
And a tall tower stands in the center of the cave.
The tower has seven floors with an ancient style. It is estimated to be a hundred meters high and almost reaches the top of the rock wall of the cave.
The previous gray light was emitted from the tower.
As layers of halos spread, the fluctuations of spiritual energy filled with deathly silence became more and more obvious.
"There is such a tower in the Howling Cave of Terror!"
This is something that no one had thought of except Ye Tian.
The powerful fluctuation of spiritual energy alone made everyone present tremble involuntarily.
"No, is this really a task that a general-level demon hunting group can accomplish?"
Li Xin couldn't help but complain softly.
This is what others want to ask.
And what exactly is this tower?
"Captain, should we go in and take a look at the situation?"
Shui Juqing asked softly.
Ye Tian barely hesitated and nodded, "Since I'm here, I have to go in and take a look."
"But now it seems that this exploration mission is obviously not simple. It is likely to be a general-level or even king-level mission."
"So next, prioritize your own safety."
"understand!"
The women nodded without hesitation.
Under Ye Tian's leadership, everyone approached the tower.
The closer you get, the more you can feel the horror of this tower.
Groups of gray-white energy quietly floated around the tower, and each group of energy was filled with strong soul fluctuations. "Be careful."
When they were halfway there, the energy ball suddenly rioted.
All the grayish-white soul energy light balls rushed over like mad.
"Go away!"
Ye Tian shouted loudly, and a golden light burst out, illuminating the entire cave as if it were daytime.
"Hiss!"
Under the shining light, all souls let out shrill screams.
The weaker ones among them were directly beaten and dispersed, while the rest flew backwards as if escaping under the impact and disappeared without a trace.
Blessing of Light, a high-level defensive skill of the Guardian Knight.
It is very effective against dark creatures and undead.
"How horrible! What are these things?"
Mina still felt a little scared.
Not only her, the other girls also looked pale.
"They should be vengeful spirits," Ye Tian explained simply, "Don't worry, with the blessing of light, they pose no threat."
"All doubts should be answered once we get in."
Without any evil spirits blocking the way, the rest of the journey went extremely smoothly.
They arrived just below the tower and stopped in front of a door that was about ten feet wide.
The gate is grayish white, without any gorgeous carvings or patterns. This alone is enough to tell that this is definitely not a relic left behind by the high elves.
There is a thick stone slab on the lintel, with five ancient characters engraved on it.
Even though the structure of the text is more complex than the characters used today, the content can still be vaguely recognized.
Eternal sleep.
Ye Tian raised his right hand and recited a spell silently.
Countless ice crystals rose from the ground and hit the gate hard.
"Squeak-"
A sour friction sound was heard.
The door was pushed open.
Just at this moment, a thick black and gray air flow gushed out from it.
This was extremely pure energy, but everyone present was clearly repelled by it, as it was filled with the aura of pure death.
"This is."
Cai'er was suddenly shocked.
Possessing the Soul Furnace of Samsara, this aura was particularly attractive to her.
"let's go."
Ye Tian was the first to walk through the gate, and the others followed closely behind him.
A strange scene happened.
After entering the tower, the sounds from the outside world disappeared instantly, as if they were completely isolated outside the door by some magical power.
Instead it was replaced by dead silence.
It is not dark inside the tower. The first thing that catches the eye is a wide hall that is grayish white in color.
What’s even more surprising is that the area is obviously much larger than what it looks like from the outside.
"Space ability?"
Ye Tian's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked up at the entire hall.
A total of forty-eight giant pillars stood proudly on both sides of the hall, supporting a dome that was nearly ten feet high. All the gray and white colors appeared slightly distorted, making it difficult to see the specific situation inside.
This is a world full of death.
Affected by the environment, the girls were extremely nervous, and their hands holding their weapons began to sweat profusely.
Suddenly, an old voice sounded without warning.
"Welcome to the eternal sleep."
The sound was vague and ethereal, as if it was pouring into the ears from all directions, making it impossible to find its source.
"Being able to enter the Tower of Aion where I sleep forever proves that you are an excellent necromancer, and your strength has reached at least the sixth level."
"My child, you are very lucky to be able to come to our world of the dead."
Just two sentences shocked all the girls again.
Necromancer?!
This profession has not appeared in the Holy Demon Continent for at least tens of thousands of years.
