A Conveyor Belt Inside the Mysterious Demon-Suppressing Pagoda
Lin Tian's figure disappeared into the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
It was merely Lin Tian's illusion.
The actual physical body still lies inside the cave.
A hint of impatience tinged with languor.
He allowed that phantom god to go to the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda to investigate the situation.
This side view reveals information about the Xuesha Futu and the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
He waved his hand casually.
They released the Xuesha Futu's mouth.
It can make the Xuesha Futu speak.
Then.
Lin Tian got straight to the point.
"I have a few questions for you."
"Answer me properly."
"If you answer well, I might spare your life."
If you can't answer, or answer poorly.
"I might have to give your precious daughter away."
Hearing Lin Tian's words.
Luo Ya and Xuesha Futu's expressions changed simultaneously.
A look of fear flashed in their eyes.
But Luo Ya couldn't speak.
She could only stare at Lin Tian with a face full of shame and anger.
If only she could swear right now.
They've probably already started cursing each other out.
Xuesha Futu let out a long sigh.
After glancing at Luo Ya, she ultimately succumbed to Lin Tian's tyranny.
"Please ask, senior."
Upon hearing this...
A dark glint flashed in Lin Tian's eyes.
It seems to be communicating with the Phantom God.
After a long pause, he finally spoke.
"Could you first explain the purpose of the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda in this world?"
Why is there no entrance?
"Is that hole at the top the entrance?"
Lin Tian explained it in great detail.
Xuesha Futu's eyes narrowed, a look of surprise flashing within them.
"You've been there, senior?"
Lin Tian's face darkened, and he reprimanded him.
"This has nothing to do with you."
"You answer whatever they ask; you have no right to ask questions back."
"If you say another word, I won't need you to tell me; I'll just plunder your memories."
Upon hearing this...
Xuesha Futu's expression suddenly changed.
A look of fear flashed in his eyes.
If Lin Tian directly plundered their memories...
So.
The consequences would be unimaginable.
His death was not simply a matter of physical demise.
That's what I was thinking.
Xuesha Futu dared not ask any further questions.
Instead, he quickly explained.
"The Demon-Suppressing Pagoda is a product of this world, belonging to the Underground World."
It is located at the center of the Underground World, connecting to the real earth.
"By communicating with the true surface, one can gather the spiritual energy of the entire continent here."
"Furthermore, because the spiritual energy is so abundant, the power that permeates the Underground World is significantly different from the spiritual energy outside."
Therefore, we call it demonic energy.
"Demonic energy cannot be absorbed for cultivation; recklessly absorbing it will result in death or the body exploding."
"In this state, the only option is to channel these powers into the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda."
"Then, cultivate around the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda."
"Then one can absorb the demonic energy transformed from it and thus cultivate."
"That's why it's called the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda."
"As for the entrance to the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda at the highest point that you mentioned earlier, I've never actually been inside it."
"I have never been inside the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda since it was built."
"I don't know what's going on inside."
Upon hearing this...
Lin Tian understood, and asked again.
"Are you sure you didn't go in?"
Xuesha Futu nodded heavily and said.
"Sure."
"I can't get into that place either; it seems like some powerful will remains there."
Upon hearing this...
Lin Tian said calmly, "I hope what you're saying is true."
The next moment.
Under the trembling gaze of the Xuesha Futu.
Lin Tian's usually indifferent eyes suddenly turned dark.
His entire eye was filled with a dark aura.
It seemed very strange.
Seeing this scene...
Xuesha Futu understood the situation.
His gaze locked onto Lin Tian's eyes.
A new guess formed in my mind.
Lin Tian at this moment.
Have they already entered the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda?
Otherwise.
He shouldn't have that expression again.
As expected.
The blackness in Lin Tian's eyes dissipated.
She spoke softly as well.
"Alright, I'll believe you for now."
Tomorrow, I'll just wave my hand casually.
Put down the Xuesha Futu.
Although his body is still unable to move, it is also free from the binding force.
The Xuesha Futu crashed to the ground with a thud.
Tomorrow, an indifferent voice will be heard.
"Alright. You can sit here and wait for now."
I will ask you again if I have anything else to ask.
Upon hearing this...
Xuesha Futu's gaze sharpened.
He glanced at Luo Ya, who was pale-faced beside him.
I couldn't help but speak up about tomorrow.
"Senior."
"Could you perhaps give my daughter to...?"
He hadn't even finished speaking.
Lin Tian casually waved in the direction where Luo Ya was.
Then.
The binding force on Luo Ya dissipated instantly.
It instantly made her feel relaxed.
Then it fell to the ground.
Although somewhat disheveled.
But at least it's much better than before.
However, just as Luo Ya was about to speak, she was stopped by Xuesha Futu.
Xuesha Futu kept giving Luo Ya meaningful glances and then spoke up.
"Hurry up and thank your senior!"
Luo Ya was about to retort when she saw Xue Sha and Fu Tu looking worried and fearful. Luo Ya felt a surge of anger, but then she thought that the power Lin Tian released was truly immense. Neither Xuesha Futu, nor even she herself, was a match for Lin Tian.
Despite feeling immense humiliation, he could only comply with the wishes of the Xuesha Futu and refrain from causing further trouble.
Luo Ya understood this as well.
If you insist on opposing Lin Tian, disrespecting him, and insulting Lin Tian?
Then they won't have a good ending either.
So Luo Ya finally spoke to Mingtian.
"Thank you... senpai."
This expression of gratitude was not heartfelt at all.
It sounded more like... words spoken through gritted teeth.
However, Lin Tian didn't care at all at the moment; his attention was entirely on the other Lin Tian.
On the other side.
The entrance to the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
Tomorrow's clone slipped into it.
At first, it was dark inside.
I can't make out their appearance.
The surrounding situation was also somewhat invisible.
However, these were not problems for Lin Tian at all.
Tomorrow's eyes flickered slightly.
A silvery light emanated from its eyes.
Then tomorrow I saw the situation around me clearly.
Inside this Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
It was just a vast, white expanse.
The size is unclear.
I can't tell what these white substances are.
I'll use my divine sense directly tomorrow.
Then scan the space.
When Lin Tian realized that the white mist around him was all spiritual energy, a look of astonishment flashed across his eyes.
"This place is filled with unconverted spiritual energy?!"
"So, this Demon-Suppressing Pagoda really is, as the Xuesha Futu described, a magical artifact that devours spiritual energy?!"
"If this explanation doesn't work, then what is this vast expanse of white spiritual energy here, and why is it so incredibly dense!"
"It's clearly unconverted demonic energy."
"I wonder how much demonic energy this spiritual energy can be converted into after it's transformed into demonic energy?"
That's what I was thinking.
Lin Tian's divine sense then probed the surroundings and discovered that the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda was indeed filled with an unexpectedly rich spiritual energy, which was also incredibly potent and irreplaceable.
Realizing this.
Tomorrow, I'll polish the paper, sit cross-legged on the spot, and begin to deduce what the laws governing the transformation of spiritual energy within this Demon-Suppressing Pagoda are.
As Ling Tian conjured up a series of Great Dao talismans.
Countless pale blue runes, inverted characters, burst forth from between Lin Tian's brows.
It gradually drifted into this vast white space.
At the same time.
The moment these mysterious pale blue runes and Dao characters drifted out, they transformed into pale blue specks of light, merging with the surrounding white spiritual energy, and then began to scatter and undulate.
These runes and Dao characters carry unique Law of the Great Dao, capable of merging with all things, exploring the attributes of all things, and allowing Lin Tian to understand the operating rules of these places. This is not only Lin Tian's specialty, but also an important means of control by the Heavenly Dao.
And so it continued.
I don't know how much time passed.
Ling Tian had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
A pale blue light flashed in his eyes.
"I see."
Through Lin Tian's own investigation.
Lin Tian now fully understands the operating trajectory of this Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
From the surface of the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda...
There is no entrance in itself, except for a bottomless cave-like entrance at the top.
But that wasn't the entrance, precisely because it happened to be tomorrow.
It was Phantom Clone in a divine soul state, not Lin Tian's real physical body, which is why Lin Tian was able to step into it.
That entrance wasn't actually an entrance; it was a place emanating demonic energy.
There are no rules here.
What truly controls the spiritual energy here is not the laws, but the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda itself.
The spiritual energy within this tower is also a powerful force released by the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda through adaptive quantification.
To put it bluntly, the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda is nothing more than a magical artifact that can condense spiritual energy into demonic energy.
Thinking about this...
A look of surprise flashed in Lin Tian's eyes.
"Throughout the countless Primordial World universes, there are only seven places in the primordial universe where demonic energy exists, and this demonic energy can refine all things, possessing power comparable to spiritual energy hundreds of times greater."
"I thought the demonic energy was powerful and scarce enough, but unexpectedly, this Underground World actually possesses a treasure capable of condensing demonic energy."
"If this level of magic weapon were placed in the Primordial World or the Chaos World, it would be a terrifying existence comparable to the Chaos Bead!"
As he thought this, a strange look flashed in Lin Tian's eyes.
Such a treasure.
Lin Tian had to find a way to get his hands on it no matter what.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be a complete waste of the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda's top-tier capabilities?
Anyway, it's just placed in this Underground World.
No one was able to refine and use it.
Such a waste is worse than taking it for our own use.
With that in mind, tomorrow will be a direct communication system.
He spoke directly to the system.
"System, please analyze how I should refine this Demon-Suppressing Pagoda and absorb all the spiritual energy within it for my own use."
Upon hearing Lin Tian's words, the system's voice immediately followed.
[System is analyzing]
[Please wait a moment, the system will complete the analysis soon]
Just a few breaths after the system's voice faded, a notification came that the analysis was successful.
[Ding-dong]
[System analysis successful. Please receive the message within your consciousness.]
Upon hearing this, Mingtian didn't hesitate at all and immediately checked his sea of consciousness. Sure enough, the system's analysis of all the information about the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda had already been transmitted from within his sea of consciousness.
[Name: Demon-Suppressing Pagoda]
[Function: Absorbs spiritual energy and converts it into high-concentration, high-multiplication demonic energy]
[Level: Cosmic Multiverse, Top-Tier Treasure, Unique and Special]
[Rarity: Priceless]
[System Evaluation: This is an extremely precious item in the universe, existing even before the birth of the universe. If the host encounters it, please try to acquire it for your own use.]
Realizing this.
Before I could even continue reading tomorrow, I was stunned by the system's evaluation.
Unexpectedly, this chance encounter led to the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
It possesses uniqueness and special characteristics, making it the most precious treasure in the universe.
Surprisingly, I found it myself.
Luckily, I had a sudden inspiration and decided to check out the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
That's how this opportunity came about.
That's what I was thinking.
Lin Tian suppressed her surprise and joy.
Continue reading.
[Method of Devouring: Please suppress it by force, or use other methods as a secondary option.]
[Special Note: This creature is extremely powerful and has developed sentience. Its intelligence is comparable to that of top-tier Heavenly Dao beings, although it manifests as a tower-shaped being. Such beings possess innate arrogance, so it is hoped that the host will suppress it and completely subdue it.]
Upon hearing this...
Lin Tian's gaze immediately sharpened.
This was the first time Lin Tian had heard this explanation.
But.
Magical artifacts can develop sentience.
That's true.
And to be fair...
The higher the level of the magic weapon.
The higher the level of intelligence that is born, the better.
Since the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda is so advanced...
That means...
Is the intelligence of the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda also quite outstanding?
After Lin Tian reached a conclusion.
They didn't intend to use force to suppress it from the start.
Instead, he patiently spoke to the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
I know you have intelligence.
"You can see me."
"I know you can hear me."
"How about we make a deal?"
Lin Tian was in this vast, silent white space.
He suddenly spoke.
This made the whole space feel off.
A long time passed.
I didn't notice anything unusual about the surroundings.
There was no sound coming from inside.
Lin Tian saw it all.
A cold, sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
Of course he could tell what was going on.
This Demon-Suppressing Pagoda definitely possesses a living spirit.
It developed sentience, but pretended not to hear Lin Tian's words.
That just means he's too lazy to bother with Lin Tian.
Think about this.
A cold, sharp smile appeared on Lin Tian's lips.
He muttered to himself.
"Heh... You still dare to ignore me."
"You really think I can't do anything to you?"
Lin Tian certainly couldn't be so eager to approach her.
He stopped talking.
The Power of the Great Dao within his body surged wildly.
It continuously releases energy into the surrounding area.
The next moment.
From near Lin Tian's Purple Mansion.
It suddenly unleashed a terrifying devouring power.
Its ferocious power was incredibly strong.
In the blink of an eye.
It then absorbed all the spiritual energy within the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
Splash! Splash!
The spiritual energy inside the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda is abundant.
And it's incredibly concentrated.
However, under Lin Tian's powerful devouring force...
Even if the entire tower has a lot of spiritual energy.
It's not enough for Lin Tian to devour!
The terrifying spiritual energy continuously poured into Lin Tian's sea of consciousness.
In less than a moment.
It has lost nearly 30% of its spiritual energy.
Lin Tian's devouring speed showed no signs of slowing down.
It will probably take a few more breaths.
That spiritual energy was about to be completely absorbed by Lin Tian.
This time.
The space within the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda suddenly began to tremble.
Obviously.
The sentient beings atop the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda were unwilling to accept this.
I just couldn't hold it in any longer.
He finally spoke.
"Wait, wait!"
Don't absorb my spiritual energy.
"Just say what you have to say!"
Upon hearing it...
Is that a little girl's voice?
