Chapter 359 Demon Suppression Tower

Day two.

On the Thousand Peaks Spiritual Mountain, another mountain far away from Queyun Palace, Yu Sheng and his companions were walking towards the location of the Demon-Suppressing Tower under the leadership of Yuan Ling Zhenren and Xuan Che.

"There are many dangerous and treacherous things in the world, and they must be contained and confined by various means. In this regard, each family has its own methods," Yuan Ling Zhenren walked briskly, walking through the mountain paths, while casually introducing to the guests, "The border area is recognized as the best in this field. The thirteen-level containment standards and corresponding containment facilities established by the Special Service Bureau are often regarded as models, and our 'Demon Suppression Tower' actually refers to the containment ideas of many border areas...

"The entrance to the Demon Suppression Tower is in front of us. We built it on a spiritual energy node of the mountain protection formation to enhance its defense. At the same time, there is an independently operated small formation under this node to prevent various accidents.

"Taixu Lingshu is not like the border area. There are not so many strange and bizarre things in it, so we did not build an overly complicated containment system and many containment facilities. We just divided the containment area in the Demon Suppression Tower. The less dangerous things are stored in the upper layer, and the more dangerous ones, as well as some captured vicious criminals, are imprisoned in the lower layer. In addition, the bottom of the tower leads directly to the Divine Machine Hall, where there are specialized people studying things with relatively controllable dangers, which is equivalent to the various levels of 'dangerous laboratories' in the border area...

"This Demon Suppression Tower was not built overnight, nor did it remain unchanged after it was built. In my master's generation, there was a special area in the Demon Suppression Tower called the 'Evil Spirit Hall', which imprisoned a strange and dangerous spirit that was dug out from the mine on the 'Eternal Dark' star. But when my master took charge of Lingshan, the spirit was finally refined into a part of the mountain protection formation, and the Evil Spirit Hall was transformed into a soul-forbidden prison to temporarily detain those captured evil demons..."

Zhenren Yuanling continued introducing everything along the way, and finally stopped in front of a cliff.

"We're here. This is the entrance to the Demon Suppression Tower."

Yu Sheng also stopped and looked in the direction of Yuan Ling Zhenren's finger, and then he and Irene on his shoulder became dazed.

He saw in front of him a steep cliff that looked like it was cut by a giant blade. On the rock wall... there was no "tower" or even any building structure, but only a relief of astonishing scale.

The relief was actually a partial structure of a tall tower. At first glance, it felt as if the main body of the tower was "melted" into the mountain, with only a portion of the outer wall including the gate "printed" on the cliff. Every detail of the relief was clearly visible, but no way of entering or exiting could be seen - because even the door was just a layer of uneven marks on the rock wall.

Yu Sheng looked at the scene in amazement, and his sight moved upwards along the "carving" on the mountain wall. He saw that there were "people" moving in the upper part of the relief. Those carvings, which were also printed on the stone, were all lifelike human figures, but they were walking and patrolling at the sentry post above the gate, as agile as living people.

"Oh my god..." Irene tilted her neck as far as she could, holding Yu Sheng's hair with one hand to prevent herself from falling, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Don't grab my hair!" Yu Sheng quickly reached out and held down the puppet's powerful claws. "You know I've started to lose my hair recently!"

"This is so cool," Irene seemed not to be listening to what Yu Sheng said at all. She just switched her other hand to continue grabbing his hair. "Look, the portrait on it is still moving!"

Upon seeing this, Master Yuan Ling laughed, and without further explanation, he turned to face the direction of the rock wall and clapped his hands lightly three times.

The next second, Yu Sheng saw the human-shaped reliefs on the rock wall stop and lower their heads as if observing something. Then two of the "reliefs" jumped directly from the rock wall. When they landed, they had turned into two mountain-guarding disciples wearing flowing silver armor and surrounded by flying swords. They bowed deeply to Master Yuan Ling.

Irene was stunned, then she grabbed Yu Sheng's hair with both hands and exclaimed: "...He's really a living person?!"

Yu Sheng was actually quite amazed, but the feeling coming from his head made him think first that he should develop the habit of wearing a hat in the future...

"It seems to be an illusion, combined with space folding." Hu Li, who was standing next to him, narrowed his eyes when he saw this scene. He studied it carefully for a while before saying seriously, "We learned about it in school! But I fell asleep during that class..."

Luna on the side nodded after hearing this: "Yeah, that's right."

Yu Sheng basically stopped trying to judge whether Luna's "Yeah, right" had any practical meaning - he even suspected that it was just an unlocking sound effect, and its meaning was to tell people around her that she had woken up from hibernation...

At the same time, Master Yuan Ling spoke a few words to the two mountain-guarding disciples who were guarding the gate of the Demon-Suppressing Tower. The two men then took the order and retreated, turning back into the rock wall. A moment later, Yu Sheng heard a crackling sound coming from deep within the rock relief, and the "gate" carved on the stone slowly opened to the sides, revealing a deep corridor illuminated by lights.

"Please," Yuan Ling Zhenren extended his hand to invite, "The giant god soldier that has been trapped in the formation is being dismantled in the Divine Machine Hall right now. Qian Ji Zhenren will be here later. We can go to the Divine Machine Hall to take a look first."

With anticipation and curiosity, Yu Sheng followed the footsteps of Yuan Ling Zhenren and Xuan Che and stepped into the "Demon Suppression Tower".

Just like the "building" at the Secret Service headquarters, this so-called "tower"... after walking in, it doesn't resemble a "tower" structure at all. Yu Sheng felt like he had walked into a huge and complex maze, and the direction of gravity in this maze was upside down. The corridors with a simple and elegant style crisscrossed each other. He was walking on the normal ground one second ago, but the next moment he found that he was standing on the upside-down ceiling.
After passing through many strange corridors like this, he found himself on a long suspended bridge. Outside the bridge were rows of isolated "compartments". Those compartments were not directly connected to the bridge, but only some floating bridges driven by huge mechanisms moved around in the air, changing the connection structure between the compartments.
After that, they continued to move forward for an unknown distance, and Yu Sheng's vision suddenly opened up again.

The covered bridge under his feet came to an end, and ahead was a huge open space, which was like a vertical shaft of astonishing size. The "inner walls of the vertical shaft" were all caves of various sizes. Some of those caves had heavy stone doors and ancient and solemn pillars, some entrances were decorated like pavilions, and some were just bare stone cave entrances, exuding an unsettling and dangerous atmosphere inside.

On the inner wall of the shaft, a series of crisscrossing passages were dug or built, and there were terrifying guarding beasts or mechanical men patrolling those passages, monitoring the status of each "prison cell"...

"The 'compartments' we just passed are ordinary prisons, and this 'vertical shaft' is the main containment area," Yuan Ling Zhenren raised his hand to introduce, "Here are suppressed many monsters and evil spirits that Qianfeng Lingshan has subdued over thousands of years, including some very dangerous out-of-control entities, but the most dangerous ones are not here, but deeper in the entire Demon Suppression Tower - all the way through this mountain, straight to the ground, sealed with the power of the earth veins.

"Of course, we don't need to go that deep today. The road leading to the 'Shen Ji Hall' is here..."

As Yuan Ling Zhenren said this, he raised the whisk in his hand and gently waved it towards the wall on one side of the "shaft".

A staircase that was originally attached to the "well wall" and looked like just an ordinary curved ramp suddenly started to move. Under the traction of a giant mechanism, it was connected to another ramp on the opposite side of the shaft. A door that was originally invisible appeared at the end of this staircase.

Yu Sheng and his group walked up the ramp, passed the guardian beast and several-meter-tall mechanical man in front of the gate, and verified their identities before entering the "Divine Machine Hall" where the giant god soldier was disassembled.

In a brightly lit, high-roofed, simple and majestic circular hall, a twelve-meter-high "Giant God Soldier" was standing quietly on a platform. A circle of scaffolding had been erected around the platform to surround the Giant God Soldier. Lingshan monks in short robes were either standing on the scaffolding or floating in the air, busying themselves around the huge and ancient mechanical man.

When Yu Sheng walked into the hall, the breastplate and back armor of the Giant God Soldier had been removed, as well as part of the arm armor and head armor. After those mighty and heavy armors were removed, what was exposed underneath was a dazzlingly complex mechanism structure.

It looks a bit like a "robot", but it is obviously not the same type.

There wouldn’t be so many mysterious symbols on the robot’s engine.

Yu Sheng came to the disassembly platform and looked up at the huge and complex mechanical creation with amazement. He looked at it for a long time and confirmed that he really couldn't understand it.

But he noticed that Irene next to his head was watching very seriously, and even had a thoughtful look on her little face.

"Can you understand?"

Irene said confidently: "No!"

"Then why are you looking at it so seriously?"

Irene crossed her arms and thought for a while, her eyes rolling around: "I just suddenly had an idea..."

Hu Li turned around and said, "Did my benefactor's 'I have an idea' also reach you?"

"Hey, don't interrupt!" Irene waved her hands vigorously, then continued to look up at the twelve-meter-tall Giant God Soldier and spoke slowly, "Yusheng, do you think it is possible for you to build me a body of 1.67 meters tall..."

Yu Sheng spoke subconsciously before the other party finished speaking: "Haven't you tried it? It shrinks when you inject spirit into it..."

Erin: “And then I drove in it.”

The second half of Yu Sheng's sentence was choked in his trachea with a "crunch".
