Chapter 418
"At Wanbao Tower?"
After hearing Mo Chen's words, Xiao Zhan frowned immediately.
During this period of time, he visited almost the entire Wanbao Building and found nothing out of the ordinary.
But Mo Chen now says that Wanbao Tower is one of the experimental sites of that mysterious force?
Mo Chen continued:
"The authenticity of this clue is unknown. You can go investigate. The location should be under the dungeon of Wanbao Tower."
Xiao Zhan was silent for a moment, put away the jade talisman for communication, and then left the wooden building where he lived.
The dungeon where Wanbao Tower is located is located deep underground and never sees the light of day all year round. There is only one passage to enter.
Zuo Qingqing, the daughter of Zuo Lingfeng, the owner of Wanbao Tower, and two powerful God King Realm masters from Wanbao Tower, are currently imprisoned in the dungeon.
entrance.
Several men wearing gray robes and gray masks stopped Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice:
"I want to interrogate Zuo Qingqing."
One of the men in gray robes took out the jade summons talisman and sent a message to Wang Tingchuan. After receiving a positive reply, he nodded to Xiao Zhan, indicating that Xiao Zhan could enter.
After entering the passage, a pungent musty smell immediately broke into Xiao Zhan's nose.
Along the winding downward passage, Xiao Zhan came to a hundred meters underground.
In front of Xiao Zhan, there is a dark passage two meters wide with no end as far as the eye can see.
On both sides of the passage, cells were dug out.
The entire corridor was damp, cold and gloomy, and screams and strange sounds could be heard from time to time.
Xiao Zhan walked to the door of the first cell and looked inside through the hole in the iron door. He could vaguely see a figure, suspended in the cell by a thumb-thick iron chain through his shoulder blades. Only faint gasps continued to sound.
Xiao Zhan withdrew his gaze and walked to the door of the second cell.
In order not to miss any clues, Xiao Zhan did not miss any cell.
After walking for who knows how long, Xiao Zhan suddenly stopped at the door of a cell.
Through the hole in the iron door, Xiao Zhan looked into the cell and saw a slender figure covered in blood.
Xiao Zhan frowned, then reached out to untie the chain on the iron door, and stepped into the cell.
There was no light in the cell, only the sound of Xiao Zhan's footsteps and heavy breathing.
Xiao Zhan raised his hand, clamped the wick of the oil lamp with his fingers, and twisted it gently, and the oil lamp ignited, emitting a yellow-orange light.
This also allowed Xiao Zhan to see clearly the figure in the cell.
This is a woman.
Her spine was pierced by an iron chain, hanging from the top. Her feet could not touch the ground, and her body was even turning slowly.
She drooped her head, and the dried blood solidified into strands of hair, which fell down so that Xiao Zhan couldn't see her face clearly.
She was only wearing a thin white dress, which was now covered with blood stains.
It seemed that he felt Xiao Zhan's aura.
The woman made an extremely weak voice:
"I...I really don't know."
"Don't know what?" Xiao Zhan frowned.
Hearing Xiao Zhan's voice, the woman struggled to raise her head, and her eyelids covered with blood scabs were forced open.
Seeing Xiao Zhan, a flash of surprise flashed in the woman's eyes:
"It's you."
Xiao Zhan also didn't expect that this woman was actually Zuo Qingqing.
She was actually tortured into this state.
Zuo Qingqing obviously also recognized Xiao Zhan.
"You're the one at the auction."
Xiao Zhan nodded and said slowly:
"What are they going to do with you?"
A flash of anger flashed in Zuo Qingqing's eyes. After the anger, he showed a look of extreme despair.
"Besides death, what other end can I have?
"
Xiao Zhan was silent for two seconds and asked:
"You are Zuo Lingfeng's daughter. You should know this dungeon very well, right?"
Zuo Qingqing seemed to have not heard Xiao Zhan's words and fell into a dying state again.
Xiao Zhan also pointed at Zuo Qingqing's forehead.
The true essence instantly penetrated into Zuo Qingqing's body, making her feel slightly better and she opened her eyes again.
Xiao Zhan said again:
"Tell me about this dungeon."
"And who are the people imprisoned in the dungeon?"
Maybe it was blood congestion that blocked her throat, but every time Zuo Qingqing took a breath, she would make a "whoosh" sound.
She glanced at Xiao Zhan and closed her eyes, unwilling to say another word.
Xiao Zhan frowned:
"I can let you go."
Zuo Qingqing opened her eyes and looked straight at Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan nodded, "You heard me right, I can let you go, including the two God King Realm experts who are protecting you, I can let you go."
After a long silence, Zuo Qingqing said weakly:
"This dungeon has been around since the beginning of our Wanbao Tower."
"In addition to the elders and disciples of our Wanbao Tower who made huge mistakes, those imprisoned here also imprison many extremely evil people in the world."
Xiao Zhan's eyes narrowed, "Are there any special beings imprisoned?"
Zuo Qingqing shook her head, "I only know the origin of this dungeon, but I don't know who is being imprisoned."
"Go and ask the other two Supreme Elders, they should know more than me."
Xiao Zhan nodded, turned around and walked out of the cell, closing the iron door.
The cell door next to it was opened by Xiao Zhan.
The sound of opening the door immediately woke up the old man inside.
The old man looked haggard, his whole body was pierced by iron chains, and he was tightly bound in the middle of the cell, but he still sat cross-legged, with no sadness or joy on his face.
At this time, he slowly opened his eyes.
Xiao Zhan got straight to the point and recounted the conversation he had just had with Zuo Qingqing.
The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly said:
"There are indeed many special beings imprisoned in this dungeon."
"Three of them are the most special."
"The first one is Shang Guangkun, the previous owner of our Wanbao Building."
A flash of surprise flashed in Xiao Zhan's eyes.
According to the news circulating in the world, the previous owner of Wanbao Tower, Shang Guangkun, passed the throne to Zuo Lingfeng when he was about to die.
Unexpectedly, Shang Guangkun not only survived, but was actually imprisoned in the dungeon.
He was a strong man in the middle stage of the Divine Emperor Realm, so how could he end up like this?
Xiao Zhan looked at the old man and asked in a deep voice:
"What about the second special person?"
Black blood suddenly appeared from the old man's mouth and nose, but he didn't care at all and continued:
"The second one is the wife of Zhuang Busheng, the leader of Qingzhou Qingtian Sect."
Xiao Zhan's eyes narrowed.
Didn't Zhuang Busheng's wife accidentally die in Fang Lingjun's hands?
How come you are still alive? Still in the dungeon of Wanbao Tower?
The old man continued:
"As for the third one, he is not a human being."
Xiao Zhan immediately stopped all his thoughts and listened carefully.
"That's a monster!"
"A very scary monster!"
A flash of fear flashed in the old man's eyes:
"To be precise, the monster is not imprisoned in the dungeon, but lives in the dungeon."
"It's in the cell at the end of the passage."
"Thousands of years ago, the monster suddenly appeared in that cell and regarded that cell as its lair."
"For thousands of years, we at Wanbao Tower have tried many times to get rid of it."
"But it's too terrifying, even at the level of the Divine Emperor
, and did not dare to approach the cell easily. "
"So, the monster stayed in the cell for a whole thousand years."
Xiao Zhan didn't listen anymore, but rushed to the end of the passage as fast as he could.
The dark and deep passage is like a huge whirlpool, and like a beast that chooses people and devours them.
In the darkness, Xiao Zhan stood at the end of the passage.
In front of Xiao Zhan was an extremely heavy iron door.
On the iron gate, you can still see traces of reinforcement again and again.
Xiao Zhan looked into the cell through the hole in the iron door.
The cell was riddled with holes and claw marks.
There was a monster lying on the floor of the cell.
Nearly two meters long, the whole body is covered with thick black hair, and the nails on its hands and feet are more than ten centimeters long, both hard and sharp.
Behind this monster, there is a slender tail.
"mouse!"
This is the first "word" that pops up in Xiao Zhan's head.
But if you don’t look at the hair, claws, and tail, this is clearly a person!
At this time, the monster was lying on the ground, motionless, and it was unknown how long it had been sleeping.
Xiao Zhan gently knocked on the iron door.
The monster opened its eyes instantly.
It was a pair of scarlet, bloodthirsty eyes, looking at Xiao Zhan through the holes.
The next moment.
"boom!"
The monster jerked its tail.
The originally slender tail instantly turned into a steel whip and hit the iron door hard.
The iron door exploded instantly!
Xiao Zhan quickly pulled back.
Just when Xiao Zhan was about to draw his sword, he discovered that the monster did not get up and was still lying on the ground, but its tail was raised high, exuding terrifying power.
Xiao Zhan also felt strange.
Why doesn't this monster rush out?
That moment just now let Xiao Zhan know that this monster has strength comparable to that of the God Emperor.
Xiao Zhan did not act rashly and began to retreat slowly.
After making sure that the monster really wouldn't chase him out, Xiao Zhan turned around and left quickly.
Not long after, Xiao Zhan opened the iron door of another cell.
Under the dim light, Xiao Zhan only saw a figure sitting cross-legged in the corner.
This figure has been sitting here cross-legged for who knows how long.
The cell was covered with cobwebs, and this figure was also shrouded in cobwebs.
Xiao Zhan could still see that this figure was covered with a thick layer of ash, and the skin had completely lost its moisture and clung to the bones, making it look extremely terrifying.
Especially the deep-set eye sockets and protruding cheekbones. Anyone who sees it will think that it is just a skeleton.
But Xiao Zhan noticed that the other party's chest was rising and falling slightly.
This shows that this Shang Guangkun is still alive.
As soon as Xiao Zhan raised his hand, the flame of the oil lamp was flicked by the true energy, and the flames suddenly burst into flames.
The entire cobweb in the cell was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.
Only then did Xiao Zhan notice.
An iron rod as thick as a thumb passed through Shang Guangkun's chest, nailing him firmly to the wall.
This iron rod, I don't know what kind of material it is made of, can seal the true energy in Shang Guangkun's body.
As a result, strong men in the middle stage of the Divine Emperor Realm can only continue to consume their own blood and become what they are today.
After so many years, it is already rare that Shang Guangkun is still alive.
Xiao Zhan took out a True Essence Stone. With a flick of his wrist, the True Essence Stone broke through Shang Guangkun's dry lips and stayed in his mouth.
Shang Guangkun, who had not made much movement at first, suddenly made a "ka ka ka ka" sound.
Then Xiao Zhan felt that the real energy contained in the real stone was instantly absorbed by Shang Guangkun.
But this little energy was too thin and not enough to wake up Shang Guangkun.
Xiao Zhan walked to Shang Guangkun
In front of him, he pointed at his forehead and began to transmit true energy.
Shang Guangkun's shriveled body was like an inflated balloon that began to expand.
Finally, Shang Guangkun opened his eyes.
There was a flash of confusion in his cloudy eyes, and he frowned the next moment.
After a long time, he looked at Xiao Zhan standing in front of him and said slowly:
"You injected me with true energy, and you also injected a kind of poison."
Shang Guangkun's voice was dry and hoarse.
It was like rusty iron blocks rubbing against each other.
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Senior, how about I rescue you and you do the work for me?"
There was no joy or excitement on Shang Guangkun's face, but he calmly said:
"There is no way you can pull out this Zhenyuan nail."
"So, I can't go out, and I don't have a chance to do things for you."
After saying that, Shang Guangkun closed his eyes again, and his plump body began to slowly become shriveled and skinny.
He said slowly:
"Even if you can pull out the Zhenyuan Nail, I can't get out."
"Unless Zuo Lingfeng is dead."
Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice:
"Zuo Lingfeng is indeed dead."
