Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 446 Ruins
Yang Qian understood that he was being used as a "key" to open the door to a secret realm that had troubled Zhu Hongchan and Yang Ding for many, many years.

But the question is, what is the purpose of a key? It is to open the door.

But what happens if the key can't open the door? It's just garbage. And there's only one way to deal with garbage: kill it.

As for Yang Ding’s last words, Yang Qian simply treated them as bullshit.

Objection? What objection could Yang Qian have?
Agreeing to be the key would give him a glimmer of hope. Even if he died, he would die later. If he disagreed, the curse would hang a knife on Yang Qian's neck and could take his life at any time. This must be what Zhu Hongchan and Yang Ding were thinking.

This is not a conspiracy, but a forced attack by Yang Qian.

It's no wonder that Zhu Hongchan asked Yang Qian if he felt "very aggrieved". Being forced to eat and unable to resist, it's natural to feel very aggrieved.

However, Yang Qian's heart was not as complicated as Yang Ding and Zhu Hongchan thought. There was no need to sandwich him in the middle.

What Yang Qian is thinking about now is not the spell on himself, but how to use the current conditions to create a favorable situation for himself as much as possible.

Not to mention chopping those two damn half-immortals with his sword, the very least he had to do was to leave alive and have more room to maneuver afterwards.

These things were like a mess, making Yang Qian's expression look even more serious.

Soon, the rain stopped.

The two semi-immortals took Yang Qian and moved to another place: a deep pit!
The deep pit is more than two hundred feet in radius, and it is unknown how deep it is below. It is also obscured by clouds and fog, so the situation below cannot be seen clearly.

Using divine sense to explore was also not possible, and after going down more than ten feet, it was blocked by a layer of strange power. This reminded Yang Qian of the small secret realms scattered in Shuangqing Mansion that he had visited many times before.

There are also deep pits in the small secret realm, as well as this strange barrier that can block divine thoughts.

Is this another space-related method? Is this a great secret realm? Yang Qian thought to himself.

This place is hidden deep in the vast bamboo sea, and there is a huge illusion and a magic array to shield the divine thoughts, which covers this deep pit extremely tightly.

After Yang Qian had seen those magic arrays, he knew that unless he searched carefully inch by inch, it would be very difficult to find this place. And he was sure that there must be masters stationed here all year round. Even if someone was lucky enough to find it, he would be killed.

In fact, Yang Qian’s guess was correct. This deep pit was indeed guarded by people all year round, but among the guarding people and monsters were Yang Ding and Zhu Hongchan.

After all, the closer you are to this deep pit, the less poisonous spiritual energy you will be affected by. If you practice by the deep pit, you will not be affected by the poisonous spiritual energy, and you can also enjoy the pure spiritual energy gushing out of the deep pit. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Therefore, the area around this deep pit has always been a focus of conflicts between Feiyun Valley and Chansi Cave.

"We're here. The ruins are right below. Lord Yang, next we need to fly down in our own vehicles. If you encounter spatial forces squeezing you on the way, don't struggle. They will take us into the real area of ​​the ruins below." Yang Ding took out a flying shuttle and told Yang Qian how to go down.

Zhu Hongchan added jokingly, "If you are afraid, Lord Yang, you can stay with me."

Yang Qian understood that Zhu Hongchan wanted to remind him whether he should continue the conversation that was interrupted by Yang Ding.

Yang Ding snorted coldly, knowing that Zhu Hongchan was trying to play tricks, but he didn't say much. As a human being, he understood Yang Qian's aversion to demon cultivators, and was sure that Yang Qian would never get close to Zhu Hongchan. Moreover, it was too early to pull someone in now, what if Yang Qian still failed?

The imperial device went down. Yang Ding took the first step, followed by Yang Qian, and Zhu Hongchan walked last.

Although the two half-immortals didn't get along with each other, they had a tacit understanding and always sandwiched Yang Qian in the middle.

"Master Yang, remember, what I want is a white jade eye, the size of a palm. It should be a certain area along the way that Yang Ding and I cannot open. If you find it and bring it to me, I promise to fulfill my previous promise and keep you alive!"

Yang Qian still did not give a clear answer.

In this situation, there is no need to move around so quickly. Let's first take a look at what this relic is.

After descending for sixty to seventy feet, Yang Qian felt the compression of space, which was very similar to the method Yang Ding used to scare him in the pavilion.

"Don't worry." Yang Ding's voice just sounded.

Upon hearing this, Yang Qian gritted his teeth and gave up struggling. Within a moment, he felt himself being squeezed to the limit by an invisible force. Then he suddenly relaxed, as if he had entered another space. At the same time, his vision that was previously blocked by clouds and mist suddenly became clear.

What caught Yang Qian's eyes was a scene that surprised him. He thought that the deep pit outside was so huge, and after passing through the space barrier below, he should enter an even larger small world, at least about the same size as the Sword Domain, right?

But the fact is: looking around, the surroundings are still the same as the entrance of the deep pit, only about two hundred feet wide, surrounded by pitch-black rock walls.

But the whole space is very bright, and you can clearly see everything in the scene here.

The most eye-catching thing is a stone tower standing in the center of the space.

The stone tower is hexagonal, more than thirty feet high, and has seven floors. It is covered with many densely carved reliefs, which seem to be all human stories. The protagonists include humans, animals, and monsters.

But the style of these reliefs seemed familiar to Yang Qian. His mind raced and he soon remembered. He had seen reliefs of a very similar style in the tomb of the Sky-Bearing Demon Master. On the Sky-Bearing Demon Master's coffin!
"This is it. There is a lot of secrets inside this nameless tower. You can just think of it as a tower-shaped space magic weapon. We will be inside it soon." Yang Ding looked at the seven-story tower in front of him with helplessness on his face, but also a bit of expectation.

"Lord Yang, you can try to look at the surrounding rocks and touch them with your hands to see if you can get the approval of the Seven-Story Pagoda." Zhu Hongchan seemed a little tense at this point, and her tone was much stiffer than before, and even more cold.

As for keys, you always have to see if they are useful.

Upon hearing this, Yang Qian understood that this was a test of himself.

So Yang Qian tensed his nerves, hesitated for a moment, then walked towards the nearest stone, and placed his hand on it as he was told.

The next moment, Yang Qian felt a mysterious force penetrate into his body from his palm, and then went out again after making a circle at an extremely fast speed, so fast that Yang Qian had no time to react.

Then the stone began to change color, from its original gray to white.

“Sir Yang, it seems that the Seven-story Pagoda is very friendly to you and actually gave you a white evaluation!?” Yang Ding said loudly with some excitement.
