Chapter 839 Darkness

In fact, the group of people knew where to control the overall situation in this big ship without the help of High Priest Songtian.

When they entered the big cabin and came out of the simulated natural garden, they saw a tall tower at a glance. The tower is very majestic and stands out among all the buildings. In fact, some slum buildings are already very tall, almost reaching the top. In terms of actual height, they are no shorter than that tall tower. However, at a glance, you will feel that the tower is majestic and glorious, while those buildings are thin and humble, and they are taller and taller. There is a difference.

"That's the Tower of Gods." Priest Songtian said, "It's the only place on the entire ship where gods are worshiped."

Zhenjian said: "Haven't all your gods left you? There are only people on the ship, and the gods are gone. What's the point of worshiping the gods?"

Priest Songtian said: "You don't understand, this is not built for God, but for people. In the long and endless journey, people need God far more than God needs people. When those children are confused, Seeing the tall tower and hearing the voice of chanting God makes it easier to calm down. Not only do we children who have always believed in God do this, but even our arrogant children will do this sooner or later. The belief is deeper, do you believe it? When we really receive God’s blessing, land safely, and find a new home, we will all become devout believers, and we will be able to help each other and develop together, regardless of each other.”

Zhenjian showed a faint smile with a trace of disdain. It was not that he disdained what he said. In fact, what this guy said was not bad. People's willpower is weaker than imagined. When they are confused and in trouble, they all want to find a spiritual sustenance... ...but he has to tell the truth!

Is that tower really just a spiritual comfort for passengers? Is there really no God in it?

The evil god is also a god.

The group of people walked towards the tower. Almost every strong human being used their own methods to identify any special aura, but they still found no results. If there is an evil god, the existence of this evil god must be very obscure and cannot be easily detected...

Or maybe the evil god hasn't moved in yet?

Then they won't gain much from coming here.

The tower looks even more majestic from a close distance. Not only is it majestic and majestic, but it is even more magical. Although each brick and pillar may not be gorgeous or complicated, they all have a sense of sanctity and inviolability. Although the surroundings were quiet, when they got closer, a low chant seemed to ring in everyone's ears, adding a bit of mystery.

High Priest Songtian came to the tower and made a clasping motion with his hands, as if praying. In fact, this action is not surprising to the priest, but it is true that only a few people in the team performed this action. Zhenjian has been observing carefully and keeping all the people who performed the action in mind.

As soon as you enter the tower, you will see a large hall, which is a place where sacrifices are held. There is no one at this time, making it look even more empty. Several people could see that there was an open space in the middle where the statue of the god was placed. Maybe the statue has not been built yet, or maybe there is no need for the statue at all. Things will naturally fill this place when the time comes.

Although there are no statues of gods, murals have been painted around them and various decorations have been set up. Those paintings are relatively abstract and not as specific as ordinary religious themes. The only thing that can be seen is that the overall decoration is mainly green and gold. The green is the most vivid green, just like the leaves at the turn of spring and summer.

After passing through the hall, there are stairs leading to the tower. The stairs went up along a passage, which was quite spacious and bright at the beginning. But when you went up to the back, you entered a narrow stairwell in the tower. The light was dim, like a black hole.

Songtian turned around and said: "This staircase is not spacious and the equipment is not perfect. Most of the stairs at the back have not had time to install lights and the light is not good. How about you leave some people behind and just invite a few representatives to go up."

This time Gan Jian said: "We are all here, everyone wants to go up, how can we leave anyone behind? It doesn't matter, let's walk slowly together."

Priest Songtian sneered and said: "Well, if you don't want to give up, then let's reduce our number. Master Haotian, and everyone, we have plenty of opportunities to go up to the tower, and there won't be so many people going up this time, right?" "

Haotian cooperated and said: "It's up to you to lead them from the front. And..."

At this time, the high priest Hutian said: "I will follow behind."

Haotian was helpless and said: "Let's just go up to two people, and the rest of us will wait below."

Songtian said: "This is good. There are few people here, so they can rest assured."

This is ironic. Gan Jian smiled faintly and said: "Let the high priest go first, and I will follow second, followed by Chang Le, then Kun Jian, Zhen Jian... Let's arrange it like this."

Songtian smiled and said to the young Changle: "You are quite a grand person. Two sword masters are waiting for you."

Changle said: "Isn't it my blessing that you lead the way?"

In fact, Gan Jian made this arrangement clearly to protect Chang Le. The two strongest sword masters sandwiched him in the middle. What kind of existence could attack him?

In fact, we had previously discussed whether to appropriately relax the protection, loosen the outside and tighten the inside, and try to seduce the other party to take action. However, Zhenjian thought: Could it be that the other party did not expect that a key figure like Chang Le would be protected by a sword master? If there is no plan, that's it. If there is a plan, the Sword Master will naturally not be in their eyes. We don’t need to deliberately expose our flaws, just act as usual. Now several people were going up the steps. Even if they were sword masters, they would have to use their methods to retaliate. Otherwise, they would have to go up step by step.

The higher you go, the darker you go. It's obvious that everyone's eyesight has reached the point where they can see things late at night, but they really can't see the way in this darkness. Fortunately, without vision, there are other senses, and mental power can also feed back to the surroundings, and everything appears to be extremely calm.

Zhenjian walked a few steps and suddenly realized: "Why don't you light a lamp? You don't have a lamp, we have one." He flicked his hand, and a little light came on.

Almost in the next moment, as if a gust of wind blew from somewhere, the lights went out immediately. It was dark all around, even darker than before.

Zhenjian raised his eyebrows, and all the humans stopped with a tacit understanding at this moment, standing in the darkness and waiting for his explanation.

High Priest Songtian sighed: "Everyone, I didn't make this clear beforehand. The temple is a place where fire is strictly prohibited. Except for the lobby, the rule in other places is that lighting lamps is not allowed. Look at the lower half of us. The lamps used are actually not lamps. , but a special seal stone that emits cold light to be accepted by God."

Kun Jian said: "What rule? Is it that kind of rule?"

Songtian said: "It's God's rule."

God's rules sound loud and bluffing, but sword masters and even sword immortals don't think it's that big of a deal. The path of a swordsman in the later stages is the path of rules. Anyone who becomes a sword immortal is qualified to touch the rules. A barrier of rules is formed, and above that is the sword master who is integrated inside and outside the rules. Everyone present now counts, who doesn’t have rules? It just wasn't released.

But here in Heavenly Demon, that is, in the spirit world, the rules only belong to gods, so there is no problem with calling gods rules. And most of the powerful demons just use God's power and God's rules to act. Maybe the strength they can exert is not inferior to that of strong human beings at the same level, but they don't know the rules.

This of course shows that gods are more powerful than humans in mastering the rules. The God-God Warrior-Believer system is also a behemoth that is difficult for a single person to contend with. God is responsible for increasing power, and priests and warriors are responsible for fighting, each performing their own duties. , and the power of rules mobilized by the priests through the hand of God even exceeds that of the immortal saints, but they are still inferior in nature.

The difference between a demon warrior and a swordsman is probably the difference between a large company executive and a self-employed person. Executives can be very rich, even receive dividends, and have a stable income, while self-employed people have high risks and are likely to become poor and die if they go bankrupt. , but they have the potential to break through the ceiling and become a big company.

Of course, these little gods, such as the Sword Immortal and the Sword Master, do not respect God's rules. When they heard that they had entered God's rules, they only frowned and did not immediately release their own rules to resist. This was naturally because they were sure that they would be able to protect themselves at any time. Make your own rules and eliminate foreign rules.

Zhen Jian said unhappily: "Since there are rules, why didn't you tell us in advance? It's just fire prevention, do you need to use the rules? And you said before that there is no god here, but you put the rules in first. Which god ordered this? It's clear There are other ulterior motives.”

Priest Songtian said: "This is not what a sword master is saying. The rules here are different from yours. The rules there are integrated with human beings, but here they are separated from the divine power. We can rely on external It is used for physical containment and external use. It is essentially the same as your magic weapon, just more powerful and precious. But where is this place, it is still worthwhile to use some precious container rules. As I said, there are no gods here, only some sporadic ones. Rules. If you mind, you might as well make your own rules to disperse. Your Majesty can do it, but it will take some time. "

Zhenjian stared at him in the darkness, unable to even see the reflection of his eyes. He paused for a while and said, "We will take action when it's time to disperse."

If you want to trap a wolf, you will eventually have to let go of the child.

The group of people moved forward step by step, each with their own thoughts in mind. Qian Jian always controlled the surroundings, and was secretly surprised in his heart: This is a dead rule, and no one is fiddling with it. It seems that it has been arranged long ago. There are hidden rules in this place. It is really suitable for plotting and hurting people. Was it specially built for today's plot? There is definitely not enough time, so why should this happen? Is it to trick other people?

When Priest Songtian is at the front, he can set the rhythm, and everyone else follows his rhythm. Although everyone can step silently, for the sake of safety, everyone keeps the sound of their footsteps. The sound of footsteps is different for each person. If you pay attention to distinguish it, you can basically confirm everyone's safety.

I walked up slowly, one step after another. I don’t know how many steps passed, probably dozens of floors up. The surroundings were still so dark, everyone was a little numb, and the footsteps coming from all around were like heartbeats. The sound, "da da da", was repeated boringly.

Zhenjian walked a few steps, and suddenly his heart was shocked. He noticed something and said, "Now let's report the numbers? Changle comes first. Is Changle here?"

In the darkness, the footsteps stopped.

However, there was no answer.
