At this moment, Chu Feng took a glance at the Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda and discovered that the pagoda only had ten floors. After hearing what the Ascension Sect’s Sectmaster said, Chu Feng knew that every floor of this Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda would definitely be harder than the previous one.
Thinking till this point, Chu Feng turned his gaze to Bai Ruochen and asked, “Miss Bai, you have also been to the pagoda before. May I know which floor you’ve managed to reach?”
Hearing those words, Bai Ruochen gave Chu Feng a glance of displeasure. Then, she snorted lowly.1 She did not tell him which floor she had reached. Instead, she expressed a great deal of discontent towards Chu Feng’s question.
At this moment, Bai Ruochen’s mother charmingly smiled and said, “My daughter’s untalented. She has only reached the sixth floor.”
“Oh?” Hearing those words, Chu Feng’s gaze changed slightly. It was as if he had thought of something. However, he did not say anything; instead, he looked to the Ascension Sect’s Sectmaster and asked, “If my guess is correct, senior sectmaster wants Chu Feng to help bring senior’s master’s remains back, right?”
“What little friend Chu Feng says is correct. If you are able to encounter my master’s remains, I wish that you could bring them back intact.” The Ascension Sect’s Sectmaster nodded. Moreover, his tone contained some traces of pleading.
“This is something that I should do. If this junior is capable of coming across senior sectmaster’s master’s remains, I will definitely bring them back.” Chu Feng nodded.
“Little friend Chu Feng, the Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda is a formation created by Senior Baili Xuankong. The formation is extremely powerful. If my master had not forced himself to climb the pagoda, he would definitely not have lost his life to it. Thus, little friend Chu Feng, you must not force yourself. If you feel that you cannot continue, it would be best for you to give up,” the Ascension Sect’s Sectmaster advised.
“Thank you for the advice, senior. Chu Feng will definitely act within his abilities.” Chu Feng cupped his fist respectfully to express his thanks. After that, he entered the Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda.
As he entered through the entrance, the first thing that appeared before Chu Feng was a spirit formation gate. After passing through the spirit formation gate, he arrived at the true interior of the Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda.
The Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda; when looking at it from the outside, it appeared to be an ordinary-sized ancient pagoda. However, when looked at from the inside, it was completely different.
At the very least, this first floor of the Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda was very vast. However, this was nothing strange either. This Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda was an enormous formation to begin with. A powerful world spiritist was capable of creating a vast world. Thus, such a place was not a difficult creation for a world spiritist. Even Chu Feng, with his current abilities, could create one such pagoda.
When Chu Feng entered the Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda, he indeed felt a pressure. However, this pressure was simply unworthy of mention to Chu Feng.
Like this, Chu Feng did not bother to stay on the first floor for too long. Instead, he immediately began to climb the floors. Every floor that he climbed would increase the pressure. However, the pressure continued to remain within Chu Feng’s range of tolerance.
Chu Feng continued onward unhindered. However, when he reached the sixth floor, he stopped.
The area within the Southern Cyanwood Forest’s Pagoda became narrower the further up one reached. The sixth floor was vastly more narrow than the first floor.
Chu Feng looked to his surroundings, and displayed a smile as if he had seen through something. He said, “The sixth floor’s pressure could stop Bai Ruochen? What a joke.”
After he finished saying those words, Chu Feng continued onward. When he reached the eighth floor, Chu Feng paid especial attention, and inspected his surroundings. However, he did not discover any human remains.
Just like this, Chu Feng continued toward the ninth floor. However, on the staircase connecting the eighth floor to the ninth floor, Chu Feng discovered some human remains.
These human remains appeared to be someone who had been climbing the stairs. It was evident that whoever it had been was trying to reach the ninth floor; unfortunately, that individual did not succeed, and instead died on the stairs.
Upon seeing this pile of human remains, Chu Feng did not even have to think about it to know that it must be the Ascension Sect’s Sectmaster’s master’s remains.
“What a powerful cultivation.” Chu Feng examined the human remains. Although this person had died long ago, and only a pile of bones remained, the bones were nevertheless extraordinary.
