Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Young Master Lu, is your memory failing you?"

Inside the treasure basin, Gu Canyang's voice of complaint came again, "As I said before, in my current state of a remnant soul, I can no longer use the Azure Dragon power of the Four Saints Sealing Spirit Seal, let alone summon Heavenly Tribulation Lightning Punishment..."

"Furthermore, every time I use the Four Saints Sealing Seal, I need to prepare for a period of time in advance..."

"how long?"

Lu Feng couldn't help but press for an answer.

"At least seven days."

Gu Canyang replied calmly.

"Seven days?"

"That's way too much!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng's pupils constricted, and he almost shouted out, "Old Gu, last time you used the power of the Four Saints Sealing Seal, you only needed half an hour to prepare. How come it took so long the second time...?"

"What do you know, kid?"

Interrupting Lu Feng's astonishment once again, Gu Canyang said somewhat irritably, "This Four Saints Sealing Seal in my hand is no ordinary magic weapon, but rather a treasure from the Hall of Sorrow and Joy..."

"The Tower of Sorrow and Joy?"

"Cough cough cough, these things are too far removed from your future..."

Seemingly unwilling to delve deeper into this topic, Gu Canyang coughed a few times before changing the subject, saying, "Anyway, the more times the Four Saints Sealing Spirit Seal is used, the longer the preparation time will be. I probably can't help you right now..."

"You'd better pray for yourself, kid...!"

After he finished speaking, there was no more sound from inside the treasure basin, as if Gu Canyang had fallen into a deep sleep once again.

After all, he had previously consumed a lot of his soul power in order to summon the Heavenly Tribulation and to deal with the Desire Demon that had taken over Bei Chenlie's body, and he was currently in an extremely weak state.

"Damn it! In the end, I still have to rely on myself...!"

Seeing this, Lu Feng abandoned the idea of ​​asking Gu Canyang for help and prepared to deal with the injured lust demon alone.

In any case, the opponent has now lost its physical body and its demonic energy has been greatly reduced.

Therefore, Lu Feng is not without a chance of winning this battle!

"Young Master Lu, what's wrong?"

Noticing that Lu Feng remained standing still with a furrowed brow, Bei Chenwan couldn't help but ask, "Is it because the stench of death here is too strong and pungent, or has Young Master Lu discovered something strange again?"

"Hmm, it's nothing!"

Coming to his senses as well, Lu Feng waved his hand to indicate that he was alright, then asked, "By the way, Miss Wan'er, may I ask how many levels this Ancient Tower of Calamity has?"

"Eighteen floors."

Bei Chenwan's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately explained, "However, apart from the ancestors of the four clans and my father, very few living people have ever set foot inside, so I don't know much about the specific situation inside the Calamity Ancient Tower..."

"If that's the case, the two of us will have no choice but to explore down layer by layer...!"

Lu Feng stroked his chin, still looking thoughtful.

Because there was no remnant of demonic energy on the first level, only a large amount of corpse energy and some worthless nameless sculptures, it was clear that the wounded lust demon was not hiding here.

"Let's go."

Without waiting for Bei Chenwan's response, Lu Feng took the lead and walked towards the second floor of the Calamity Ancient Tower.

"Young Master Lu!"

Watching Lu Feng stride away with such a dashing figure, Bei Chenwan's pretty face froze slightly before she subconsciously called out to him.

"Miss Wan'er, have you discovered something else?"

Turning around at the sound, Lu Feng was also somewhat surprised.

"Uh...! No, no!"

Facing Lu Feng's gentle, clear eyes, Bei Chenwan felt a blush rise to her cheeks. She waved her hands repeatedly, her tone somewhat unnatural, and said, "Young Master Lu, that lust demon is very cunning. You must be very careful...!"

For some reason, looking at Lu Feng, who was calm and composed, she always felt a little uneasy, even her heart was pounding!

This strange feeling was something Bei Chenwan had never experienced before, let alone with a man of the opposite sex!

"Don't worry, a mere half-adult succubus can't kill me...!"

Lu Feng was also taken aback by Bei Chenwan's concern, then grinned.

Admittedly, that lust demon was indeed very powerful. It not only possessed Bei Chenlie's physical body and consciousness, but even Mu Yuan, the former young master of the Mu family who possessed the "Indestructible Body," could not escape its clutches.

However, Lu Feng is no ordinary person. Even without the help of the Treasure Basin and Gu Canyang, with his current strength, he has at least a 50% chance of winning against the Desire Demon again!

...

A short while later, on the fifth floor of the Ancient Tower of Calamity.

Click...!

As Lu Feng slowly stepped into the tower, a crisp cracking sound of bones coming from the ground below made him shudder and instinctively take several steps back.

"This, this is...?!"

Following closely behind, she stepped into the fifth level of the Ancient Tower of Calamity, and the next moment, Bei Chenwan was also stunned.

Looking around, one could see various broken bones and remains scattered on the ground inside the tower, all of which seemed to be human remains. However, most of the remains were no longer human-shaped, with only a few remaining intact. At the same time, a large number of strange black spots remained on the remains.

"So many human remains?"

Upon discovering a large number of unidentified skeletons piled up inside the fifth floor of the tower, Lu Feng snapped out of his daze and immediately went back up to it.

"Miss Wan'er, it seems you are right, this tower was indeed an execution ground in the past..."

Lu Feng glanced around the tower, then stroked his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face.

As Bei Chenwan had mentioned before, the four great families used to imprison many captured enemies and traitors in the Ancient Tower of Calamity as a form of execution and punishment.

The numerous unidentified skeletons scattered on the ground of the fifth floor are most likely remnants of those who were once trapped in the ancient tower of calamity.

After all, the Tower of Calamity is filled with a large amount of corpse energy and has no food source, making it a place of certain death!

For normal people, the only way to escape and survive is to keep climbing upwards; staying on the bottom floor of the tower would basically mean certain death!

Shh...!

Just as Lu Feng was observing the situation inside the tower, a soft rustling sound slowly came from a corner behind him.

Click...!

The next moment, a half-destroyed skeleton suddenly stood up and pulled out a black-bladed broadsword from somewhere. It then stabbed it fiercely into Lu Feng's vital heart.

"Young Master Lu, be careful...!"

Suddenly, something unexpected happened. Bei Chenwan's pretty face changed slightly, and she exclaimed in surprise.

Clang...!

A crisp clang of metal clashing rang out, and the next moment the half-destroyed corpse was seen flying backward at high speed before crashing heavily against the ancient tower wall, instantly falling apart and shattering into pieces on the ground!

As for Lu Feng himself, he stood with his fist clenched, his face calm, seemingly prepared for the sudden sneak attack from the half-dead corpse behind him.

"This aura... it really is the remnant of demonic energy."

His gaze shifted, and as he watched the black spots on the shattered bone fragments gradually fade, Lu Feng's face showed a thoughtful expression. "It seems this guy's demonic energy hasn't fully recovered, which is why he doesn't dare to show himself directly right now, and can only resort to underhanded tactics like sneak attacks and ambushes..."

At first, he was puzzled as to why these nameless corpses had such strange black spots on them, as if they had been corroded by something.

Now it seems that these black spots were left behind by the injured lust demon in the past. Its purpose was nothing more than to use these remains to hold back Lu Feng while waiting for its own strength to be fully restored!
