C3 Abandoned Pagoda

… ….

"This energy …?" Inside the Patriarch's Mansion in the Central Jiang Family, an old man who was like an old monk suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at the frightening energy coming from the back of the mountain with a face full of shock.

"Oh no, something happened to Nan?" When he thought here, he immediately stood up. He held onto his sleeves and flew out like a breeze. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the room.

… ….

The other three courtyards could feel the shock caused by the frightening energy. The three black-clothed figures looked toward the back of the mountain.

In the end, only a black-clothed figure from the Southern Courtyard rushed out, disappearing into the darkness with a cold smile. His laughter contained some excitement and excitement.

In the Northern Court, just as Jiang Chenshan was about to fall asleep, he heard a loud noise. His heart was about to jump out of his chest.

Before he finished his sentence, Jiang Chenshan put on his clothes and went straight to the back of the mountain, disappearing under the night sky.

At this moment, the thatched cottage on the back mountain was burnt to ashes, leaving behind endless amounts of ashes and traces of Dou Qi. There was also an unconscious Jiang Wen, who was sent flying by the boulder, lying beside it with a pale face.

Where is Jiang Nan?

In the void cave, an old soul body floated in the air. Looking at this soul like existence, it seemed as if it was about to be blown away by the wind, causing people to feel nervous.

It was an old man with an aged face. His expression was as calm as autumn water, and his eyes were so deep that it was impossible to see through his heart. He had an aged aura and a roll of pale hair.

A black clothed young man lied on the ground. The young man's entire body was covered in blood, and his face was slightly pale. His four limbs were all broken, and his entire body's aura was extremely weak.

The unconscious young man was none other than Jiang Nan, who chose to self-destruct in exchange for the last shred of dignity.

For the sake of dignity, for the sake of not letting Jiang Wen step on his head, Jiang Nan chose to explode. However, once this warrior exploded, even his soul would be burnt to nothingness.

Such a kid with such a strong sense of self-esteem had never been seen before. At least, the old man had never seen such a youth.

Thus, the old man looked at Jiang Nan, who was on the verge of death, and revealed a satisfied smile. He laughed and said, "Good boy, you didn't disappoint me. I have waited for tens of thousands of years, and finally I have found someone who is destined."

"I had originally wanted to test what level of patience you had reached, but you brat, you gave this old man a surprise!"

"Whatever. Since Jiang Nan and I are fated to meet, I will pass on my cultivation technique to you. For …" "I hope that you will be able to contribute to the future unavoidable calamity."

As the old man spoke up to this point, especially with regards to the possible calamities that might occur in the coming days, the old man's expression could not help but become a little more solemn, and his aura also began to change.

As he finished speaking, the old man gently waved his left hand. Immediately, a splendid stream of Dou Qi entered Jiang Nan's four limbs, treating all of Jiang Nan's injuries.

A few minutes later, the old man gasped for breath and wiped his forehead. Seeing that Jiang Nan's four limbs had been reattached, he nodded his head in satisfaction.

Then, the old man raised his left hand again. Instantly, the string of characters with runic characters entered Jiang Nan's mind and disappeared.

"Hehe, that's enough. In order to protect my soul from being destroyed, I have absorbed your battle qi for seven years and have you become the trash of my family. Now, I will pay you back with interest, haha, I am really looking forward to the emergence of a strong warrior like 'him' in the Star Luo Continent in a few years.

When the old man mentioned that 'he', his face revealed a strong sense of admiration and desire.

After a long time, he shook his head and felt that it was a bit unrealistic. No one could surpass that person, even the kid in front of him.

Even though he had his eyes on Jiang Nan, wanting to become that strong person was still a dream.

The old man retracted his thoughts, and after treating Jiang Nan, he passed on what he had learned throughout his life to Jiang Nan. His face revealed a tired look, and his soul state became even weaker.

"Haha, since you don't have a spirit treasure, I'll give you one. This is a top grade spirit artifact left behind after the great war of the ancient era. As for whether you can obtain the treasure's approval, that will depend on your luck."

The old man's weak face revealed a smile of satisfaction, he then raised his hands, and a few levels of a pagoda gradually appeared between his palms.

It was a twelve-story pagoda. However, the pagoda was grey and lifeless. Moreover, some parts of it had already been corroded. At first glance, it looked no different from a rock.

The pagoda was sent to Jiang Nan's hand. Finally, the old man used the last bit of his soul power to write a few words in the air and didn't disappear for a long time.

The old man's soul state had reached a state of destruction. Finally, it completely dissipated within the cave, and a satisfied laugh rang out.

"Brat, don't lose the pagoda. Otherwise, this old man will not let you off. In the future, this old man will still need your help in order to be reborn."

The old man's voice became softer and softer. Finally, the old man's soul turned into a transparent red color, and disappeared into the 12 floor's gray pagoda.

In the cave, it was quiet. Only Jiang Nan was lying on the ground, the paleness on his face gradually disappeared, and his handsome face was gradually covered in blood. His breath also calmed down.

Beside him, an abandoned pagoda was lying on the ground. Traces of Dou Qi were seeping into Jiang Nan's forehead.

… ….

"Yes."

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Nan finally woke up. He let out a hoarse moan, and after a long while, he opened his heavy eyelids. His blurry eyes looked at everything in the cave.

Jiang Nan was surprised for a moment and then sat up in surprise. He touched his body and found that there were no injuries. "What's going on?"

After that, he thought of something that happened at an unknown time. In order to die together with Jiang Wen, he chose to self-destruct.

However, at that critical moment, he felt a force pulling him. The next moment, his body went limp and he fainted.

But what was that power? Jiang Nan thought about it again and again, then looked around at his surroundings, and suddenly exclaimed: "A void cave?"

It was actually here?

Jiang Nan's face revealed a trace of fear. Why did he come here again? If not for this hole, his battle qi would not have been reduced for no reason, and his meridians would not have been broken, not to mention that it would not have been left intact for him at the end.

"Eh? "What is this?" Just as Jiang Nan was about to leave, he noticed that the abandoned pagoda on the 12th floor, which had a grayish, lifeless feeling, made Jiang Nan frown.

He picked up the pagoda and carefully checked it. There was nothing strange about it and he was going to use his consciousness to check it.

However, just as he was about to explore, Jiang Nan felt as if his head was cut by a knife. Sweat appeared on his forehead, he quickly threw the pagoda away, covered his head and wailed. He felt even worse than if he self-detonated.

"Just what is this?" A few seconds later, the pain in Jiang Nan's head gradually subsided. He looked at the pagoda on the ground with some horror and confusion.

Just at that moment, the sound of a call sounded out outside. Jiang Nan's ears pricked up and very simply, he heard footsteps several meters away. It was chaotic and complicated. As Jiang Nan stepped on the leaves, creaking sounds could be heard.

"How could my hearing be like this?" Jiang Nan touched his ear in shock. How did his hearing increase so much in such a short time?

Only after opening three meridians would one be able to hear sounds from a thousand meters away? Had he already reached the early stage of martial warrior?

Thinking about that, Jiang Nan's face lit up. He immediately closed his eyes to check the situation in his body.

One, two, three … Three.

Seeing that his meridians had been opened for three whole days, a smile finally appeared on Jiang Nan's face.

There were actually three meridians that had not been opened for seven years that were mysteriously opened today.

Jiang Nan stared with his eyes wide open. The reaction in his heart was not something that could be described with words.

It seemed that there really was a mysterious expert helping him. Jiang Nan looked at the pagoda on the ground excitedly.

Jiang Nan became more and more certain that there must be someone helping him. Jiang Nan thought of that ancient voice again. Perhaps, his mutation was inseparable from the origin of that voice.

Furthermore, Jiang Nan had always felt that there was a secret behind these seven years. He had never been out even half a step.

It was just that it did not match with the elderly voice? Could it be that someone else was following him?

This Qi seemed very cold, yet it did not carry any hostility. Instead, it was somewhat warm, more like the Qi of a woman.

As Jiang Nan thought of this, a hint of complexity appeared in his eyes. Just who was it that had been following him all this time?

"Whatever, it's good as long as you've broken through. I really want to see if those people who still want to humiliate me can laugh again."

As he said that, a trace of cold killing intent flashed in front of Jiang Nan's eyes. He clenched his fists and waited for the scene that would make his blood boil.

That was to let everyone see that he, Jiang Nan, was not trash. Even if others could cultivate battle qi, he, Jiang Nan, could.

"Nan, where are you?"

"Jiang Nan, where are you?"

Jiang Nan reacted. Listening to the approaching footsteps and shouts, Jiang Nan picked up the abandoned pagoda that was a few centimeters long and put it in his pocket. Then, he jogged out of the cave and ran towards the source of the sound.

"Father, I'm here, Grandpa, Nan is here."

After Jiang Nan walked out of the cave, he looked at the figure that was hurriedly searching for him. Jiang Nan's face lit up and he quickly shouted.

At the same time, when Jiang Nan raised his head, he suddenly saw Blue-clothed Youth, who was lying next to a giant boulder, and Jiang Wen, who had fainted.

In a split-second, Jiang Nan's expression turned completely cold. A killing intent that could pierce the heavens assaulted him as he clenched his fists tightly.

Jiang Wen, I won't let you go.
