Drip.

Drip.

Drip.

On the cold and damp stone wall, water drops kept rolling down and hitting Shen Lang's brow.

Shen Lang, who was in a coma, frowned. After a long time, he finally couldn't help but open his eyes and said angrily.

"It's not over yet, right? Can't you let me sleep--"

However, when Shen Lang saw everything clearly, he was stunned and the remaining half of the angry words were stuck in his throat.

At this time, Shen Lang was in a dark and cramped space. Through a ray of skylight above his head, he could vaguely see all kinds of rotten corpses and bones scattered on the ground around him, and a pungent smell was pervasive. Not far ahead, there was a blue-gray stone staircase spiraling up, and there was a yellow forbidden seal at the entrance of the staircase.

"This...where is this...hmm!"

Cold sweat oozed from Shen Lang's forehead, and then a huge amount of memories flooded into his mind.

After a long time, Shen Lang, who had endured great pain and absorbed all the memories, raised his pale face and showed an extremely bitter smile.

"So I traveled through time, but how did I travel through to such a poor guy..."

This is a world where demons are rampant and immortals and gods are holy.

Mortals absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to gain power and improve their realms. There are seven levels from low to high:

Acquired, innate, mixed, pure, return to the spirit, supreme, and emperor.

Shen Lang's predecessor was a native of Wutong County in the Dajing Immortal Dynasty. He had no parents since childhood and suffered cold eyes and humiliation. Later, he relied on being a waiter in Zuixianlou to make a living.

Wutong County Dutou Zhang Yuanshan loved the fine wine of Zuixianlou. After a few visits, he got to know his predecessor. A while ago, the position of yamen runners was vacant, so he promoted his predecessor to the county yamen as a yamen runner.

But who would have thought that Zhang Yuanshan had other intentions to pull his predecessor into the yamen runners!

Twenty miles away from Wutong County, there stands a demon-suppressing tower left by an ancient great power, which seals countless powerful monsters and demons.

However, as time goes by, the monsters and demons inside have long been wiped out, and the power of the demon-suppressing tower is less than one ten-thousandth of that. Now it is used by the Wutong County government to imprison some monsters and prisoners.

The Dajing Immortal Dynasty ordered the county government to send yamen runners into the demon-suppressing tower every three years to clean up the prisoners.

However, the demon-suppressing tower only allows warriors below the innate realm to enter, and it breeds a group of powerful monsters like raising Gu, and there are almost no rivals below the innate realm.

Under such circumstances, naturally no one dares to go to the demon-suppressing tower to die.

"Zhang Yuanshan obviously wants you to die, so he lets you hang the title of yamen runner, otherwise why would you, a poor boy who doesn't know martial arts, enter the county government?"

Shen Lang shook his head, depressed.

It's too late to say anything now. His predecessor was frightened to death after being sent to the demon-suppressing tower, and he can only bear the consequences.

If he wants to leave the Demon Suppression Tower, he must leave from the very beginning.

In the meantime, he has to face countless powerful monsters and vicious martial arts prisoners!

"I am just a mortal, how can I fight them with my head!" Shen Lang was so anxious that he cursed.

At this moment, Shen Lang's eyes suddenly blurred, and a light blue virtual panel popped up.

[Current martial arts: "Remaining Qingfeng Sword Art" (not yet started)]

[Consume life to deduce martial arts]

[Remaining life: thirty-seven years]

"Qingfeng Sword Art?"

Shen Lang was slightly startled, and immediately realized that he had awakened the system and could consume life to deduce martial arts to gain experience.

And this "Qingfeng Sword Art" was a martial art that his predecessor tried to learn in the county government's arsenal after joining the county government.

It's a pity that he has mediocre talent and still has no understanding after practicing for a month.

"I only have 37 years left to live, so I can't waste it on this broken sword technique, right?"

Shen Lang frowned. He knew how critical the situation was in the Demon Suppression Tower, but he still held a glimmer of luck and wanted to try to find other skills.

"With so many corpses here, any martial arts I find will be better than the broken sword technique, right?"

Shen Lang bent down and carefully groped the pockets of the nearby corpses.

Suddenly.

A panting beast roared behind Shen Lang. He stiffened and turned his head to look.

A black wolf with a body as big as a calf approached slowly. It bared its sharp teeth, and its smelly saliva dripped. Its pair of dark green eyes were as scary as ghost fire in the dark.

"Black Demon Wolf!"

Shen Lang's eyelids jumped suddenly. The Demon Suppression Tower had imprisoned countless monsters with powerful bloodline power, and was contaminated with the breath of many wild monsters, which would attract nearby monsters to enter.

The black demon wolf in front of him has a trace of the blood of the ancient wolf saint. It is a real demon wolf, enough to rival the post-natal warriors!

"Woo-ah--"

This black demon wolf has been here for who knows how many days. It has been so hungry that its chest is pressed against its back. It is approaching step by step with its body hunched. Its hind legs are slowly gathering strength, ready to pounce on Shen Lang at any time.

"System! Consume all life to deduce the martial arts "Remnant Qingfeng Sword Art"!"

At the critical moment, Shen Lang made a decisive decision, shouted in his heart, and chose to consume all life to deduce martial arts.

Ding!

A crisp sound rang out, and the ferocious beast claw raised by the demon wolf stopped in mid-air, and the faint light above its head no longer flickered. Time seemed to be frozen at this moment.

Shen Lang's breathing was steady, as if he had entered a state of meditation. His eyes were covered with a layer of blue light, and a series of pictures and small words flashed rapidly in front of him.

[The martial arts deduction of "Incomplete Qingfeng Sword Art" begins]

[In the first year of deduction, you hold a wooden sword and follow the sword art record, making the sword art moves flow smoothly, but you still can't cut a piece of firewood]

[In the fifth year of deduction, you realize that the sword art is incomplete, and try to ask the martial arts instructor for advice, wasting a year]

[In the eighth year of deduction, you copied down the sword tactics, recited them day and night, and read a lot of basic martial arts, and finally got a hint of inspiration. ]

[In the tenth year of deduction, you worked hard to finally complete the "Qingfeng Sword Tactics" and could start practicing]

[In the eleventh year of deduction, you officially got started with the Qingfeng Sword Tactics]

[In the twelfth year of deduction, you can already skillfully control the Qingfeng Sword Tactics]

[In the thirteenth year of deduction, your Qingfeng Sword Tactics have achieved a small success and become a well-known swordsman]

[In the sixteenth year of deduction, you hit a bottleneck and the Qingfeng Sword Tactics stopped moving forward]

[In the twenty-fifth year of deduction, you traveled in the wilderness and finally realized a hint of the Qingfeng Sword Intention. The sword intention entered your body and broke the shackles of your body, and you entered the first level of the acquired realm. ]

[In the 30th year of deduction, you will practice the Qingfeng Sword Art to perfection, and your cultivation level will rise to the third level of the post-natal realm]

[In the 36th year of deduction, you will practice the Qingfeng Sword Art to perfection, and the Qingfeng Sword Intention will reach the stage of being able to do whatever you want]

[The remaining life span is insufficient, and the deduction ends]

Time in front of him resumed flowing, and Shen Lang suddenly trembled all over. An inexplicable force surged from his body, and his mind gained the vicissitudes of life that seemed to have gone through decades.

"Roar!"

The black demon wolf didn't seem to realize anything. It roared and opened its bloody mouth to bite Shen Lang.
