This ancient tower reached the sky and pierced through the clouds. It was more than a hundred times larger than a mountain.
This was because Feng Feiyun's group was far away, so they could only see that it was a tower. If they were closer, they would think that it was a Mount Buzhou forged from bronze and iron.
"This is the aura of the Immeasurable Tower."
"Could it be that the Evil Woman pulled it out from the ground and brought it back to the citadel?"
…
Feng Feiyun, Little Demoness, Ningshuai, and Long Cangyue had cultivated at the tower before, so they were very familiar with this aura. It was not a frightening aura, but it still made people want to worship it from the bottom of their hearts.
It was as if a saint was standing right in front of them.
The Immeasurable Tower in the Wanxiang Pagoda was placed upside down in the ground with the door above and the roof below. One had to go down step by step to enter the tower.
But now, the Immeasurable Tower had been pulled out from the ground by the Evil Woman and placed here.
Perhaps it was because it had been buried underground for too long, but the Immeasurable Tower was covered in rust. There were even some places with mud. The originally blue tower had now turned yellow as if it was about to rot.
There was a boundless ancient aura coming from it.
"This is definitely an unparalleled treasure. If I can get my hands on it, I will be invincible in this world."
Ningshuai was very excited and kept rubbing his hands together. He really wanted to steal the tower, but after looking at its size, he began to doubt whether or not he could carry it.
In the end, he reluctantly gave up.
"It is indeed amazing, surpassing all the known divine weapons of the Jin Dynasty. Even this level is rusted as if it is about to rot. Who knows how long it has been in this world?"
Yao Ji practiced the technique taught to her by Feng Feiyun. She had suppressed her aura and qi images, but the ghostly energy in her body was still surging.
They didn't know, but Feng Feiyun knew very well that this Immeasurable Tower was a Saint Spirit Treasure. No, to be more precise, it was half a Saint Spirit Treasure because this was only half of the tower.
Thirty thousand years ago, the Dao Ancestor's Ancient Scripture was stolen. A Daoist Saint took out the Immeasurable Heavenly Tower and took Xiao Nuolan inside. Along the way, another mysterious person took action and caused a battle of the Saint level. During that battle, the Immeasurable Heavenly Tower was broken into two pieces. One piece fell to the Jin Dynasty.
Xiao Nuolan's three corpses escaped from this half of the tower.
All of this was naturally told to Feng Feiyun by Xiao Nuolan. Otherwise, Feng Feiyun would not have known that Holy Spirits really existed in this world.
The one who stole the Dao Ancestor's Ancient Scripture must have been her.
Feng Feiyun even felt that the Dao Ancestor's Ancient Scripture had also fallen into this land. Maybe it was the Dao Scripture that everyone talked about later on. Otherwise, how could a mere dynasty have such a heaven-defying merit law?
"Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Law" and "Dao Spirit Seeding" — these two merit laws that Feng Feiyun had seen could be considered supreme. Not many physique merit laws in the Demon Phoenix Race could compare to them.
Of course, this was only speculation. After all, thirty thousand years had passed, so the truth had been buried by people. Only a few strange and absurd legends remained.
"Evil Woman, we know that your cultivation is unfathomable and lawless, but you actually dared to steal our Immeasurable Pagoda. This is the same as opposing the entire pagoda. Heads can be cut off and blood can flow, but the pagoda cannot be lost."
The citadel was surrounded by many powerful cultivators. All of them were seniors of the pagoda.
More than half of the Tower Lords from the Hundred Pagoda Sacred Ground had arrived. Sharp rays of light shrouded the land.
The one who shouted earlier was an old woodcutter. He carried a straw woven from bamboo leaves and wore a pair of broken sandals. He carried a peach wood pole on his shoulder and revealed his yellow teeth. He stood at the citadel's gate and began to clamor again: "Evil Woman, let me tell you, our pagoda is not to be trifled with. We have many experts, we'll kill you until you don't even know your surname."
This old woodcutter was the Technique Tower's previous lord, Lan Muqiao. He was a top existence among the previous generation.
His seniority was even higher than the Transcendent Child and the previous Divine King. During the competition for disciples, Feng Feiyun became the previous Divine King's disciple, Ji Feng became the Transcendent Child's disciple, and Lan Muqiao accepted Little Demoness as his disciple.
Rumor has it that Lan Muqiao used to be the External Lord of the Sacred Spirit Palace. He was the most powerful person under the Sacred Spirit Palace Lord and the Spirit Palace Lord. However, for some unknown reason, he gave up and ran to the pagoda to become a Tower Lord in name. He spent his days idling and swindling not only the seniors of the pagoda, but also many juniors from the pagoda.
Lan Muqiao wanted to shout again, but he slowly looked up and saw that the Evil Woman was standing on top of the citadel. He immediately swallowed his words and jumped away. In the next second, he was already in the pagoda's camp.
The Evil Woman stood on top of the citadel with her white dress fluttering in the wind. She was a peerless beauty as she indifferently said: "The Immeasurable Tower does not belong to the pagoda. If anyone wants to take it from me, then I'll take their life."
The seniors from the pagoda were cursing this Evil Woman in their minds. She was the one who stole someone else's treasure, yet she made it sound like someone else was the one who stole from her.
Feng Feiyun was also sweating in his mind. He sympathized with these seniors from the pagoda because he had also been robbed by the Evil Woman before. Moreover, she acted as if she was in the right.
Not long after she stole Feng Feiyun's Daomization Stone, she met Feng Feiyun again. However, it was as if she didn't know him at all. She gave him an indifferent glance before wanting to steal his vessel again.
Feng Feiyun always felt that her nickname shouldn't be "Evil Woman", it was more appropriate to call her "Bandit".
The pagoda lords and seniors from the pagoda were truly angered. The Transcendent Daoist flew out with a Yin Yang Diagram and a Tri-Pure Lotus above his head. He had a righteous expression as he angrily said: "Evil Woman, you are also an expert, yet you dare to say such shameless words. Are you not afraid of being laughed at by the world?"
"No!"
The Evil Woman was emotionless and very indifferent. From start to finish, she didn't even look at the Transcendent Daoist.
"You … you …" The Transcendent Daoist couldn't say anything as his face turned red.
"You are a cultivator, why do you want to steal my Immeasurable Tower?" The Evil Woman retorted.
"I … I want to steal … your … Immeasurable Tower?" The Transcendent Daoist's dao heart almost exploded from anger: "I …"
The Evil Woman said: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. I'm not afraid no matter how many of you come. I'll kill as many as you come."
Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, Feng Feiyun flew up and landed on top of the citadel's wall. He looked at the pagoda cultivators in the distance and said: "Feng Feiyun greets the Tower Lords and seniors!"
Little Demoness, Bi Ningshuai, and Long Cangyue also flew up to the wall and greeted the seniors outside.
The Evil Woman withdrew her murderous intent and directly flew back to the citadel. She no longer cared about what was going on outside since she trusted that Feng Feiyun would be able to settle this matter.
Feng Feiyun was definitely the most outstanding disciple the pagoda had seen in the last several hundred years. Moreover, he was very respectful towards the seniors and didn't act arrogantly just because of his current cultivation. This made the pagoda lords and seniors very happy.
"Feiyun, why are you together with the Evil Woman?"
A golden-skinned man came out and climbed up the wall. He smiled and patted Feng Feiyun's shoulder.
A few more seniors also came up and chatted with Long Cangyue, Little Demoness, and Bi Ningshuai.
Feng Feiyun had a serious expression as he said: "First Brother, this matter concerns the lives of millions of people. I have no choice but to work with the Evil Woman."
This man was the Martial Tower Lord, the first disciple of the previous Divine King, Zhang Badao.
After hearing this, the other Tower Lords pricked up their ears to listen to Feng Feiyun's next words.
Zhang Badao raised his brows and asked: "Does this have something to do with the upcoming calamity?"
The weather had changed. Many people had calculated that a calamity would soon descend upon this land. Moreover, it was becoming more and more imminent. At that time, this land would be completely destroyed.
Feng Feiyun looked up at the sky with a compassionate expression. He nodded his head and said: "That's right!
This Immeasurable Tower will be very useful. Maybe it will be able to display a heaven-defying power and suppress that evil being so that this land won't be destroyed. "
"Who is that heretic?" The Transcendent Daoist became serious.
Feng Feiyun answered: "Yama, the end of the Buddhist era.
He was also the one who ended the era of Buddhist cultivators. When he returned, his cultivation would be even more terrifying than 10,000 years ago. He would return with boundless rage and the Five Great Dynasties would be reduced to dust.
Only the Evil Woman and the Immeasurable Tower will be able to suppress him. "
Feng Feiyun's words were half true and half false. Half of it was to trick the seniors from the pagoda so that they wouldn't fight to the death against the Evil Woman in order to save their lives.
The other half was that if the Evil Woman could complete her fifth transformation, then with the power of the Immeasurable Tower, she might be able to suppress Yama's evil half.
Of course, the premise was that the Evil Woman was willing to take action.
Outside of cultivation, she didn't care about anything else. Even if she had the power to suppress Yama, as long as Yama didn't provoke her, she wouldn't take action. The life and death of others had nothing to do with her.
She wouldn't care no matter how many people died.
In the end, Feng Feiyun used his silver tongue to convince the big shots from the pagoda to retreat. He said that everything would wait until after the calamity.
Before leaving, the royal princess, who was also the Tower Lord of the Spirit Treasure Tower, stared deeply at Feng Feiyun. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything and left with the group.
After sending off the seniors, Feng Feiyun stood on top of the citadel's wall. His gaze pierced through the clouds and saw the stars in the sky. The constellations were becoming more and more chaotic. The danger was getting closer and closer. Maybe Yama's evil corpse would descend on this land in the near future.
"I hope that the Evil Woman will have completed her fifth transformation by then and we will have left the Jin Dynasty. Otherwise … I don't know if we will survive."
