Chapter 251 - 251 Holy Sword of Light, You Want Me to Be Your Shield? (1)
“Everyone, stop criticizing Lu Yan. He was also just trying to resolve the source of the danger just now. Fortunately, everyone is fine. Let’s continue. I can already sense that the divine light power is not far from us. It should be ahead.”
Hearing Jiang Shangbai’s words, the surrounding new students nodded and followed behind Jiang Shangbai, intentionally or unintentionally increasing the distance between them and Lu Yan.
Seeing this, Lu Yan was also happy. He simply gathered the surrounding undead and surrounded some people beside him.
As for the participating new students in front, with Jiang Shangbai’s “effort and protection”, nothing would happen even if they encountered any danger.
Soon, they passed through the entire long corridor and arrived at the tower.
Seeing the scene in front of them, all the participating new students were stunned.
Before entering, they had their guesses about what was inside the tower. However, no one expected that there was actually a huge arena in the tower.
The top of this tower-like building was not sealed. The moonlight shone through the black fog above the Abandoned City and they happened to be able to vaguely see the interior of the tower.
At this moment, Lu Yan and the others were on a high platform at the entrance, also on the first level of the stands.
In the surroundings, the arena was surrounded by layers of stands. At the top, there were also stands that looked like private rooms. However, they were already dilapidated.
In front of him was a huge circular pit. Tens of meters down, it formed a huge arena.
Below, there were iron bars that were covered in blood and had already turned black. Clearly, many battle items had been imprisoned inside previously.
“I didn’t expect the interior of the tower to be like this. From the looks of it, it should be an arena. I thought it was some sacred place. After all, it’s in the center of the entire Abandoned City.”
“No, this is the most sacred and important place in Abandoned City. It’s also the most important place for the dark-born race. I remember Teacher telling me previously that dark-borns obey strength the most, so the arena is the most important place in every dark-born city.”
“They will lock the demon beasts they captured up with human experts and watch them fight to the death for fun. This should be such a place.”
Hearing the words of a participating new student, everyone’s gaze landed on the arena below, as if they could see human experts fighting demon beasts inside.
“No matter how important this place is to the dark-born, the most important thing now is to find that divine light power first. Jiang Shangbai, after entering, your senses probably picked up on more obvious signals, right?” Luo Qiushan looked at Jiang Shangbai and asked.
If the black fog in the sky was really a trick left behind by the dark-born, then the divine light power would be their life-saving reliance. They had to find it quickly.
When the other participating new students heard this, their gazes also landed on Jiang Shangbai in unison, spreading anticipation.
Jiang Shangbai nodded. “I can sense that the divine light power is below.”
As he spoke, Jiang Shangbai directly jumped down.
Seeing Jiang Shangbai land steadily, the other participating new students also jumped down and quickly followed.
If there were many portions of the divine light power, they might be able to obtain them if they arrived first.
Bai Miao looked at the large number of participating new students and asked Lu Yan beside her, “Are we going to follow?”
Lu Yan looked at the arena below and felt that it was somewhat sinister.
However, Lu Yan then nodded. “Let’s go down and take a look first.”
A portion of the surrounding undead scattered and guarded the surrounding stands. Then, Lu Yan directly jumped down.
After all the participating new students landed, a white light appeared in Jiang Shangbai’s hand at the front.
A dense divine light aura spread out, dispelling the faint dark power lingering around, making everyone’s bodies relax.
Then, everyone saw the white light in Jiang Shangbai’s hand slowly move towards an iron fence in front of him.
Jiang Shangbai slowly walked over, as if the white light was guiding the direction to the divine light power.
Soon, the white light floated in front of the iron fence and directly entered. It quickly entered and lit up what was inside.
This was a place similar to a cell. It was very big, about six meters tall and twenty meters wide. There was a stone bed placed in it and there was nothing on it.
The surroundings were empty, as if there was only the stone bed.
“Is the divine light power inside?” Luo Qiushan looked at Jiang Shangbai and asked.
Jiang Shangbai nodded when he heard this. “That’s right.”
As he spoke, Jiang Shangbai raised the large saber in his hand and directly slashed at the iron fence in front of him. The iron fence in front of him had long rusted and was easily slashed open by Jiang Shangbai.
Then, Jiang Shangbai directly entered, and Luo Qiushan and the others followed.
After Lu Yan spread out some undead around him, he also entered with Bai Miao.
Jiang Shangbai quickly arrived near the white light above the stone bed.
Looking at the stone bed below, Jiang Shangbai directly raised the long saber in his hand and slashed.
Ping!
With a crisp sound, the long saber landed on the stone bed but did not slash it open.
