Chapter 158 158: Dark Tower!
"A Tower?" Lin Xian thought and immediately approached.
"There's something strange about this tower, husband!" Fei Ran said while looking at the tower that always emits black steam.
Lin Xian felt the same way and immediately asked the System. "System, is there something of value in there? And what kind of steam is that?"
[DING!]
[The System can't detect what that thing is because it hasn't been seen yet. However, the System can judge whether the objects inside are valuable or not]
[And about the black vapor, Extreme Dark Qi aims to make this Island float. That being said, this building is the main source of energy that allows the other islands to fly]
"Ah," Lin Xian raised the corners of his lips and became increasingly interested in what the System said.
"Husband, this building looks very dangerous. Shall we go inside?" Fei Ran asked while looking at Lin Xian.
Lin Xian didn't answer immediately and asked the System in his mind again. "Is there any danger in there?"
[DING!]
[Many trap mechanisms on each floor of the building. But the System can detect it easily. Host-only needs to restrain that Extreme Dark Qi from invading Host's body since that Qi is quite dangerous]
"How to counteract it?"
[DING!]
[Host only needs to coat the body with Qi. Even if it was dangerous, this Extreme Dark Qi Nature would not attack if someone got in the way. With Host's current amount of Qi, Host will be able to survive inside for 3 hours and 52 minutes before running out of Qi]
[For Fei Ran, Host's wife will last longer]
Lin Xian understood instantly. If he had that much time, he would confidently be able to inspect the valuables according to the System. After all, with the help of the System, he would save time as he could trace all the trapping mechanisms.
"Ran'er… Use Qi to protect your body since Dark Qi is quite dangerous. But it won't have any effect if we envelop our bodies with Qi!" Lin Xian also told Fei Ran how to ward off Dark Qi.
Fei Ran only gave a small nod, even though she was even more curious about how her husband knew all this.
Lin Xian slowly walked over and pushed open the giant door, which looked like it wasn't locked.
BANG!
When it opened, an extremely dense Dark Qi gushed out, which gave Lin Xian and Fei Ran a jolt. However, thanks to the Qi of the two of them, the Dark Qi seemed to pass through only the two of them.
Not too far from the tower, three members of the Yin Clan stared at the bursting Dark Qi. The three immediately agreed and approached the tower, too, because they felt that Lin Xian, who was the target, was there.
Meanwhile, Lin Xian and his wife, who had just been pushed back, could feel that the Qi was very strong but did not try to touch them thanks to their own Qi.
"This Qi is very strong! Who on earth can produce this strong Qi?" Fei Ran asked and glanced at Lin Xian for an answer.
"If you ask me, then who do I ask?" Lin Xian asked, looking at his wife with a frown.
Fei Ran's face twitched hearing what her husband said.
"Come on; we don't have to waste time. Follow me. I have a feeling that there must be a trap in there. I'll try to check it out. Don't get too far from me." Lin Xian warned and immediately walked into the tower.
The slightly pouting Fei Ran only gave a small nod and slowly walked inside.
When they entered the tower, they found an empty room. When Lin Xian stepped, a System sound sounded, making him stop in his tracks.
[DING!]
[It is recommended that the Host stop walking because there are traps that have the potential to injure the Host]
Lin Xian was slightly wrinkled from going in; he almost stepped on a trap.
"System, Show all the traps and make a map of the buildings and the location of the two of us!" Lin Xian's order in his mind. Who feels that the System is capable of cheating like today's games?
[DING!]
[Held]
In Lin Xian's mind, he saw the building map; the two white light sources were him and Fei Ran the red light source map was traps.
"There are so many traps. What's with this building!? Are the things in there really that valuable?" Lin Xian thought.
"What's wrong, husband?" Fei Ran asked curiously because Lin Xian suddenly stopped walking and seemed to think for almost 10 seconds.
Lin Xian didn't answer and created a small sword using his Qi. He waved his hand, and the Qi shot toward the floor.
Jleb! Jleb! Jleb!
The spiky-shaped Dark Qi immediately shot upwards of 4 meters, which totaled about 10 of them.
Fei Ran was stunned that there was indeed a trap, and it was just in front of the entrance.
"So what are we going to do? There must be a lot of traps." Fei Ran asked back.
"This is very easy." Lin Xian said and held Fei Ran's slender hips. He immediately took out the Heavenly Demon Crow's Wings and shot out at full speed while looking at the map in his head.
Woshhhhh!
At extremely high speed, Lin Xian, carrying Fei Ran, moved around, avoiding all the traps. From the map in his head, the traps weren't just on the floor but also in the middle of the air.
Lin Xian moved slightly while moving in the air because a trap suddenly appeared before him. He immediately turned a little, but the trap remained active.
However, with the System's help, he could dodge them easily. After that, he continued to fly with his wife upwards because the tower looked completely empty from the bottom up, and the way to go up if it didn't fly was on the side that looked circular upwards.
When going through all the traps, Fei Ran was so amazed that almost none of the active traps could touch them at all.
Lin Xian continued to shoot upwards at full speed. In less than 1 minute, he glanced at the many rooms on the floor near the end of the tower. Because from there, the place to fly up looks narrower because the sides are filled with rooms.
"System! Tell me where that thing is!" Lin Xian's order in his mind.
[DING!]
[In some rooms, there are some precious things. However, the most valuable thing is the tip of the tower]
Hearing that, of course, Lin Xian immediately shot toward the tip of the tall tower. He will take the most valuable thing, and the rest can follow.
When he reached the top, Lin Xian immediately landed on the floor. In front of him was a rather large door.
"Husband... I feel something bad from inside there!" Fei Ran, who stared at the door emitting black steam, spoke with a frown on her forehead.
"What do you mean?" Lin Xian asked in astonishment.
"I don't know. But I feel the contents of the door are very dangerous!"
Lin Xian's face immediately became serious. "System, is there any danger in there?" he asked.
[DING!]
[Frozen life detected. If Host doesn't wake him up, there won't be any danger at all]
"Oh," Lin Xian understood instantly. However, he was a little confused about why his wife felt it. Without asking again, he took out the Villain's Blood Sword, dashed at high speed towards the door, and swung his sword. Because the System has informed us that the figure will not wake up if the door is broken down. Also, if not forcibly, the door won't open at all.
The Villain Qi enveloped the Villain's Blood Sword.
Tring!
Brrtttt! Brrtttt!
Sparks of Qi spread out in all directions as Lin Xian's sword hit a barrier. His face was slightly serious because the Dark Qi seemed extremely strong and could withstand its power.
Zrang!
Lin Xian bounced back and landed crouching, using his left hand to keep his body from bouncing away on the floor.
"Too hard, then!" Lin Xian also raised the corners of his lips because he couldn't wait to see what really valuable things were there.
Lin Xian's spirits rose dramatically because he wanted to see what was in the room.
"Eight Meridian Star Villain…"
"First Gate..."
"Second Gate..."
Lin Xian's strength rose instantly. He also made preparations to attack with all his might with one strike because he was sure that he would be able to penetrate the door with his current strength when opening two gates at once.
Zhep!
With an extremely high speed, Lin Xian arrived at the door instantly and immediately swung the Villain's Blood Sword with all his might.
Strains! Strains!
The Qi trying to block it was instantly torn apart along with the door.
Bang!
Lin Xian kicked the door he had cut twice into without wasting any time, and it collapsed. The door is only strong with Qi protecting it. Otherwise, it's still the same as a normal door in general.
When the door collapsed, Lin Xian also deactivated the Two Forbidden Gates and stared intently into the room. He was stunned when he saw a figure frozen in the ice.
Fei Ran, approaching because her husband managed to break the door, looked carefully inside. Her eyes widened as she stared at the frozen figure within the block of ice.
"Husband... What is that?"
