I originally wanted to take this opportunity to explore the situation on the ninth floor, but I didn't expect the old man to say such a thing!
I quickly bent down and said in a deep voice: "Senior, are you kidding me? What is there on this ninth floor that would make you afraid?"
"Besides, didn't you bring this tower here? Will it contain something that even you are afraid of?"
The old man gently stroked his beard, then looked up at the ceiling above his head, and said with a complex expression: "Although I brought this tower, the things on the ninth floor have nothing to do with me!"
After hearing this, I quickly became interested. I sat cross-legged again and looked at the old man curiously, hoping to learn more about the situation on the ninth floor from him!
The old man also glared at me angrily, and then said leisurely: "Although I brought this nine-story prison tower, since I left the physical body and turned into this ghost, I have lost Without the control of the tower, therefore, the tower has become an ownerless thing, and it is understandable that it can be used by others!"
"And the things suppressed in the ninth floor were brought here about two thousand years ago. Originally, the ninth floor was where the eighth demon was imprisoned, but it was forcibly moved to the eighth floor by someone. , and then he suppressed that thing into the ninth floor!"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a little shocked. According to my guess, the higher the place in this tower, the more ferocious the things suppressed.
It is not difficult to understand what the old man said. Two thousand years ago, a person came here, and he moved the eighth demon Jia Tu who was originally imprisoned in the ninth floor to the eighth floor, and imprisoned another thing in the ninth floor. layer.
what does that mean?
This means that in that person's eyes, the thing imprisoned in the ninth level is far more ferocious than the eighth demon in his heart!
In this way, I am even more curious, what is on the ninth floor?
And, more importantly, who imprisoned him?
He has the ability to transfer the eighth demon, and can also imprison the things in the ninth layer. Who is he?
With this question in mind, I also asked: "Senior, do you know what the things on the ninth floor are? And who suppressed them here?"
The old man sighed leisurely, then shook his head and explained: "I'm not sure about this. Maybe that person noticed my existence, so when he cast a spell to seal the thing, he sealed this place. , my perception was also blinded!
However, through my perception of this place over the years, I can detect that the sealed thing is definitely a demon-like existence! The strength is probably no longer something that humans can fight against! "
Hearing this, I was shaken all over. Demon God? Isn’t it something humans can fight against?
I subconsciously asked: "Is it the same thing as the Eighth Demon??"
The old man shook his head firmly: "No, because I have been dealing with that kind of thing for many years, I am extremely sensitive to the breath of things like the Eighth Demon, so I can be sure that there is no such thing as the Eighth Demon in the ninth level. Monster! As for the speculation about that thing, I am more inclined to think that it is a monster that was originally born in this world, rather than the kind that was born by us humans!"
Based on this guess, I opened my mind and asked immediately: "Are you talking about a ghost? Or a zombie? Or a monster?"
The old man lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded heavily: "It should be some kind of zombie. This can also explain why he was suppressed in Maoshan. Hasn't your Maoshan Sect always had a way to deal with zombies?"
I nodded silently. The old man was right.
However, according to his speculation, this ninth floor is likely to contain a zombie!
What kind of zombie could scare even this old man with such a high level of cultivation?
The legendary demon?
I'm afraid even if it's a demon, it won't scare this old man so much, right?
After a pause, the old man then said: "By the way, didn't you just ask me who was the person who sealed the things on the ninth floor here?"
I nodded, this really made me curious.
The old man took a deep breath and said: "According to my estimation, I'm afraid that man's strength is not inferior to Dao Lord!! He even surpassed Dao Lord!"
Beyond Daojun?
In fact, I am not too shocked by this statement. The reason is very simple. I only heard the old man talk about the so-called Dao Lord. He is very strong, and I have no intuition about his true strength. The knowledge, therefore, does not surprise me.
The old man may have noticed my subtle changes, and then said in a deep voice: "It seems that you are not too surprised? Let me tell you this, the strength of my Tao Lord has lasted from ancient times to the present, spreading out all the history of Jiuzhou. Those who surpass my Dao Lord are only a handful!!"
Hearing this, regardless of whether the old man's words were exaggerated or not, was enough to shock me!
In other words, the strength of that Dao Lord can be stronger than those great powers that have appeared in history!
Having said that, I am even more curious about who the Taoist Lord is?
How come such a powerful person has not left any significant mark in our history?
Emperor Xuan?
I have indeed never heard of this name.
Of course, the most important thing is that the person who once sealed the things in the ninth layer here is actually stronger than Dao Lord!
With that said, my thoughts started to wander again.
This scene seems a bit familiar. I once saw a seal in the Wordless Monument in Mount Tai. What was sealed there was a demon. How similar is the situation here?
At that time, there was a person who sealed the demon inside. At that time, I had this question. Now it seems that there is some connection between them?
Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, the old man asked me again: "Is there any problem?"
I shook my head, then took a deep breath and said, "Senior, is there any way you can send me to the ninth floor? With my current strength, I probably won't be able to go up. I want to take a look, even if it's Let me go up and take a look!"
