Researching Abilities (3)
Once inside the Tower of Vicious Wolves, Fanxin found an open space and landed.
He immediately removed his Flight Armor and placed it inside the Wind and Sand Tower. Then, he began to survey the interior of the Tower of Vicious Wolves. All he could see were hills and forests, and in the distance, he also spotted rivers and lakes.
"Hey, is this some kind of world? How is this possible!" Fanxin looked at Langyue and asked in confusion. He had thought this place was full of wolves, but now, seeing it, he was somewhat astonished. This place was like another world, with everything one could need, and he could live here.
"Hmph, if you actually believe that, you'll die a horrible death."
Langyue said, "Back then, our ancestors believed this and mistakenly entered this place. As a result, our Wolf Clan encountered its darkest period. Our ancestors were trapped inside and could only fight with the wolves until they died, unable to leave this place."
"Oh, are these all illusions?" Fanxin asked.
"Yes, it's all an illusion," Langyue said. "Use the Wind and Sand Tower's power to sweep across the area ahead. Then you'll see I wasn't lying."
"Ah, okay." Fanxin nodded slightly upon hearing this. He beckoned to Langyue and said, "Come into my arms!"
"Hmm, what are you doing?" Langyue asked, puzzled.
"I want to research a few abilities. Right now, I can only use the Wind and Sand Tower's abilities roughly, which is far from enough. I want to completely master Wind and Sand Tower abilities. Therefore, I must try using new techniques."
Fanxin said, "I'm worried that we'll be swept away by the sandstorm and separated, which could be dangerous. So, I'm going to tie you to me. That way, even if we're blown away by the sandstorm, we'll still be together."
"I see, alright then!" Little Wolf Langyue thought this made sense, so it didn't resist and let Fanxin pick it up.
After holding Langyue in his arms, Fanxin did not hesitate any longer. He immediately focused his mental energy on the fiftieth floor of the Wind and Sand Tower. A moment later, a sandstorm appeared. The sandstorm was so strong that everything around him could not be seen.
They remained undisturbed by the sandstorm. However, everything within a meter of them was swept up in the sandstorm, including the wolves that tried to approach them.
"What kind of techniques do you want to try researching?" Little Wolf Langyue asked curiously.
"I want to try running now, running through the sand and dust," Fanxin said.
"Ah, is that possible?" Little Wolf Langyue asked.
"It should be possible. The sandstorm is centered around the Wind and Sand Tower. If I run with the Wind and Sand Tower, the sandstorm should follow. However, I have to be careful not to overdo it. If I don't keep a good balance, running too fast or too slow, I'll get caught in the sandstorm," Fanxin said. "I've never been caught in one before, but I'm sure it must feel terrible."
"Hehe, of course, my head is spinning." Langyue nodded and said.
"So, you need to be prepared. As soon as we get caught in the sandstorm, you start making your move, creating a giant air wolf to envelop us. That way, it can spin around as it pleases," Fanxin said.
Langyue nodded, indicating that she understood.
Fanxin Xin stopped talking nonsense and started trying it out.
He slowly ran forward, gradually increasing his speed, wanting to see at what speed he could maintain without being caught in the sandstorm.
He increased his speed as he ran, and the sandstorm seemed to follow him as it ran.
Seeing the sandstorm chasing after him, Fanxin smiled slightly, thinking that this method was feasible. If they were surrounded by a large group of people in the future, he could use this method to break through.
He charged towards their attackers, carrying the sandstorm with him. They had no chance against him; they could only dodge. If they didn't dodge, they would be swept up in the sandstorm and ultimately suffer the consequences.
"Hehe, this move is feasible. Once I've thoroughly researched it, I'll study the horizontal sandstorm. That way, I can use it as an attack technique to strike others," Fanxin said with a smile.
Although the sandstorm won't kill anyone, if used properly, it can make your opponents suffer greatly. He's growing increasingly fond of the Wind and Sand Tower.
He proceeded cautiously, gradually adjusting his speed. If he went too fast, he would slowly stop; if he went too slow, he would immediately accelerate.
After trying again and again, Fanxin finally figured out a way.
After training for more than ten minutes, Fanxin was unharmed and could move with the sandstorm. However, Fanxin was not happy about this, because he had wasted a lot of his energy paying attention to various aspects. On the battlefield, he wouldn't have time to pay attention to these things; he wouldn't even have time to escape.
Therefore, he must work even harder to reach the state of doing whatever he wants, then things will be much easier.
"Langyue, next, I'm going to try something even crazier. You need to be prepared, understand?" Fanxin said to Langyue in his arms.
"Ah, isn't this a good attempt?" Langyue was a little puzzled. Just now, Fanxin and Fengsha had traveled together without any problems. It thought this was good, and that it would be fine to continue like this.
"Ah, you have no idea how many things I was paying attention to just now. With so many things on my mind, I couldn't concentrate on anything else. If something happened to you and I had to go to rescue you, and my mind got distracted, wouldn't that lead to trouble?"
Fanxin shook his head and said, "That won't do. I need to be able to sit and run as I please, so that the sandstorm will naturally swirl around me. That way, I won't have to worry about being caught in the sandstorm."
"Yes, that's true. Although you were alright just now, being overly cautious is really not very useful." Langyue pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"So, I'm going to try like crazy to find that feeling. Once I get that feeling, I won't need to be so careful anymore. Once I use this move, I'll be able to adapt to it perfectly," Fanxin said.
"Then let's go!" Langyue nodded and said.
Fanxin smiled and stopped talking nonsense. Then, he stopped paying attention to everything and started running casually. Sometimes he ran fast, sometimes he ran slow.
Sure enough, he wasn't paying attention and was immediately swept up by the sandstorm. He was carried around in circles by the sand.
Langyue immediately took action, creating a giant air wolf that enveloped both of them, thus keeping them together and preventing them from separating.
After Feng Sha heard this, Fanxin began to try it again. He spent the entire morning practicing this move. Although he failed every time, as time went by, he gradually got a feel for it.
However, he still needs a lot of training to maintain this feeling.
"Ah, I'm not going to try anymore. I'll explore the Tower of Vicious Wolves this afternoon and try this move again tomorrow. I'm sure I'll learn it." Fanxin shook his head, deciding not to try any further. He was feeling a bit dizzy and disoriented.
"Yes, we practice in the Wind and Sand Tower every morning, and then train in the Tower of Vicious Wolves when we go down. This way, we can take care of both." Langyue nodded, thinking that Fanxin's method was good.
"Hmm." Fanxin nodded, and after resting for a while, he stood up and looked around.
He was horrified when he looked. All the mountains and rivers had vanished, and what he saw now were countless bones, piled up like mountains. Some bones were intact, while others were broken into countless pieces.
"Holy crap, what's going on? These bones are all...?" Fanxin asked, stunned.
"Some of them are from our Wolf Clan, but the vast majority are from other species. There are bones not only on this layer, but also on the upper layers, and there are even more of them," Langyue said.
"Where did those bones come from?" Fanxin asked curiously.
"I don't know the specifics, but our Wolf Clan was all lured in by that beautiful sight. Once inside, our ancestors realized something was wrong, but it was too late to leave."
Langyue said helplessly, "Under the attack, our people fell one by one. I think these bones are what were left after those wolves ate the remains of our people. The other races are the same."
"It's too horrific. I can't even imagine what happened here," Fanxin said.
"Yes, so you have to be careful. All the beautiful sights here are just a hoax. If you believe them, you're doomed," Langyue said.
Fanxin nodded and said, "I understand. I won't easily believe what's in here."
"That's good. Now what should we do? Should we continue going up?" Langyue asked.
"Wait a moment, let me purify and send these vengeful spirits away before we continue!" Fanxin Xin waved his hand and said.
He sensed the fluctuations of souls emanating from those piles of bones. However, these souls were not pure; they were mixed with countless resentments. These souls were no longer pure; they were all vengeful spirits.
Others couldn't see it, but he had a very strong perception of souls. Therefore, he easily sensed the presence of those vengeful spirits.
These vengeful spirits are likely the release of those creatures that were devoured. Accumulating over time in a dark place, they couldn't be purified. Therefore, the number of vengeful spirits grew, and this place was no longer a benevolent place.
