C332 The Punishment Tower
C332 The Punishment Tower
Meng Xuan blinked at Chen Yu. His expression was one of schadenfreude, but there wasn't much malice in his schadenfreude.
"Alright, Deacon Hong, how to enforce the law has its own rules!" Fong Xiuyue did not mind the deacon disciple's words, and said: "Although Chen Yu was the first to act, he was provoked by the opponent first, so he entered the Punishment Tower's fifth floor to receive punishment for seven days according to the rules. Chen Yu, do you have any objections? "
"Do I have any objections?" Chen Yu shrugged.
"Useless!" When Fong Xiuyue heard Chen Yu's words, he laughed involuntarily. Then, a trace of interest flashed across his eyes as he said this.
"Isn't that over then?" Chen Yu rolled his eyes.
"Elder Feng, you see, this kid's attitude is a bit too vile!" The deacon said angrily: "If we do not punish them severely, how can we intimidate the five thousand Outer Sect disciples?"
Fong Xiuyue shook his head and said, "Do it!"
"Disciple accepts the orders!" Meng Xuan replied and said to Liu Tie, "Please, Junior Brother Chen!"
Chen Yu said lightly: "I don't know where the Punishment Tower is. Brother Meng, please lead the way!"
Meng Xuan revealed a trace of helplessness. He gave Chen Yu a thumbs up and walked in front. Chen Yu strode forward to catch up with him. A few law enforcement disciples followed closely behind, escorting Chen Yu to prevent him from escaping.
"It's out!" The moment he walked out of the Law Enforcement Hall, Chen Yu heard a shout. Lifting his head to look over, Chen Yu astonishingly saw that not far away from the Law Enforcement Hall, there were already many Outer Sect disciples surrounding them.
Seeing Chen Yu come out, these Outer Sect disciples started to discuss, and many of them carried deep malice that was full of expectation.
"Senior brother, may I ask what punishment this Chen Yu will receive?" A person stepped out of the crowd and cupped his hands towards Meng Xuan.
This person was Lin Shen, one of the top disciples of this year's Outer Sect Branch Sect. He was close friends with Han Yue who had died at the hands of Chen Yu, and he also deeply hated and loathed Chen Yu.
"The fifth floor of the Punishment Tower for seven days!" Meng Xuan said expressionlessly.
Lin Shen was stunned when he heard that. He looked at Chen Yu with both satisfaction and a trace of indescribable pity. This kind of gaze was as if he was looking at a person who was about to die.
Meng Xuan did not stay any longer and continued to walk. Chen Yu smiled at Lin Shen and walked past him with a calm expression.
"It looks like your popularity is not that great!" After walking a distance, Meng Xuan said with a smile.
"Not just mediocre, but extremely lacking!" Chen Yu said lightly.
"Ha ha!" Meng Xuan laughed and said, "You know your own limits, but are you sure you can survive? Punishment Tower level 5 and below is called the Inferno Prison! "
"I don't know if I can come out alive, but I have to try to find out!" Chen Yu shrugged and said, "What do you think, Brother Meng?"
"To be honest, I admire you!" Meng Xuan said, "There aren't many people like you, and most of them died too early. Without a person like you, Outer Sect is rather boring. I was hoping that you wouldn't die in the Punishment Tower s, but unfortunately, I can't decide the outcome! "
Chen Yu smiled and turned back to look. He saw Lin Shen and the rest following them from a distance. It seemed like they were going to see him imprisoned in the Punishment Tower with their own eyes.
If Chen Yu was not worried about being locked in the Punishment Tower, that would be impossible. Punishment Tower s were viewed as a taboo by all Outer Sect disciples, so it was obviously not easy to survive inside for seven days.
However, Chen Yu still had a lot to rely on. He had the Fire Spiritual Soul in his body, so he had a lot of advantages over other Outer Sect disciples.
Meng Xuan did not use his movement technique, so his speed was not fast. It took him more than an hour to travel from the Law Enforcement Hall to the Earth Fire Cave.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Earth Fire Cave, Meng Xuan exchanged greetings with the few disciples that were holding the door. Meng Xuan looked at Wu Tie and the other disciples of Outer Sect that were following behind them, then returned to Chen Yu and said: "Do you have any last words?"
Chen Yu shrugged and said, "No need!"
"You really don't need it?" Meng Xuan grinned, "Or do you want to meet someone else? Seeing that you look quite pleasing to my eyes, I'll arrange something for you. "
Chen Yu rolled his eyes and said snappily: "You even said that I'm pleasing to the eye. Why do I feel like you want me to die?"
"Just in case!" Meng Xuan said, "You're treating my kindness as nothing. Since that's the case, go in!"
The entrance of the Earth Fire Cave was right in front of him. He could faintly sense a scorching aura coming from inside.
"Hold on!" Chen Yuzheng was about to take a step forward when he heard a loud shout.
Chen Yu looked back and saw Ye Qing and Gongsun Hao walking over.
"Seniors, please allow us to speak a few words with Chen Yu!" Ye Qing cupped his hands towards Meng Xuan and the others and said.
"Hurry up!" Meng Xuan casually waved his hand and said.
"Elder Brother Meng, thank you for your help!" Ye Qing recognized Meng Xuan and thanked him again.
Meng Xuan simply walked to the side and waited.
Lin Shen and the others watched from a distance, but no one dared to question them.
"How did this happen?" Ye Qing smiled bitterly and said, "Chen Yu, what can I say about you?"
"Then don't say anything!" Chen Yu shrugged, "If I didn't come out, Brother Ye, Gongsun, please take care of my people." Of course, I think there is little chance of that happening. "
Ye Qing nodded his head, suddenly picked up a Storage Bag and handed it over, saying in a low voice: "Inside is a Flame Spirit Cloth, it can absorb fire energy, if you can't hold it, use it!"
Chen Yu could not help but be surprised. As he thought about it, he accepted the Storage Bag, "Brother Ye, thank you so much!"
"Chen Yu, come out alive!" Gongsun Hao had a relaxed expression and said: "I don't think people like you will die that easily. Just tell me what it feels like to be sentenced to death in the Inferno Prison! "
"If you want to know what it feels like, why not try it yourself?" Chen Yu grinned and said.
"I don't want to go in!" Gongsun Hao scolded.
There was no point speaking any further. After saying his goodbyes, Chen Yu walked into the Earth Fire Cave.
As Chen Yu walked into the Earth Fire Cave, the surrounding Outer Sect disciples cheered loudly.
"A spirit artifact for defending the earth fire?" Meng Xuan escorted Chen Yu into the cave and asked casually.
"Yes!" Chen Yu didn't have anything to hide, so he asked: "That's not against the rules right?"
"It's not against the rules!" Meng Xuan said: "Entering the Punishment Tower s, there is nothing that we are not allowed to take with us. However, a Spirit Treasure can only be used for a short period of time, it can't last for that long as seven days! "
The cave entrance was very wide, and after walking a few dozen meters inside, it gradually became narrower, but it could still accommodate four or five people.
The further in he went, the hotter it became and the hotter it became.
An hour later, an extremely wide space appeared at the end of the path.
Within the space, a pitch black tower was like a monster, crawling in the dark underground space.
The surroundings were void, and several thousand feet away from the void, there were all kinds of caves interweaved with crimson black. Violent astral winds howled in this underground space, bringing with them blazing auras.
However, this blazing temperature was still within an acceptable range.
"This is the Punishment Tower?" Chen Yu looked at the pitch black Punishment Tower. Even with his personality and knowledge, he couldn't help but reveal a shocked expression.
The Bloodfire Eye Technique operated, Chen Yu could clearly see that the Punishment Tower's entire body was made of black rocks, on the black rocks, there seemed to be ancient and mysterious traces carved.
These marks couldn't be seen clearly in the dark, but Chen Yu still felt that they weren't simple.
"This Punishment Tower, was first used as a fire refining tool by a senior who had extraordinary strength in the sect!" Meng Xuan said, "The first time I saw it, I was also extremely shocked!"
Chen Yu nodded as his eyes spun. Soon, he saw an iron chain bridge that connected the tower to the bottom of the western wall.
"Let's go!" Meng Xuan said.
Chen Yu took a deep breath and felt that the air he inhaled was hot and uncomfortable. When the air entered his lungs, it brought a faint tingling sensation.
If you stay here long enough, it will cause damage to your lungs.
It seems the fifth floor really isn't easy.
Following behind Meng Xuan, Chen Yu walked towards the iron chain bridge.
"Elder Brother Meng!"
"Elder Brother Meng!"
The two white clothed martial artists sitting cross-legged at the end of the metal chain bridge stood up and bowed towards Meng Xuan. There were only the two of them here and no other law enforcement disciples were in charge.
Meng Xuan smiled and said, "Xiao Ye, Chen Guang, you two sure look pleased!"
"It's all thanks to fellow brothers!" The two warriors responded with a smile. It was obvious that they had a good relationship with Meng Xuan. After greeting them, their eyes fell on Chen Yu and they said, "There's another crime, which floor are you on?"
"The fifth floor!" Meng Xuan said, "Bring him in!"
"The fifth floor?" The two disciples in charge of guarding this place revealed incomprehensible looks, and said: "A mere third level Heavenly Astral Stage, yet he was actually locked in the fifth level. What did he do?"
Meng Xuan curled his lips and said, "Ask him yourself!"
"He just killed someone!" Chen Yu said lightly.
"You must be a new Outer Sect disciple, right? Since when did the standards of the Outer Sect disciples become so low? " Xiao Ye said.
"Cut the crap and send it in. This place makes me uncomfortable. Finish it quickly!" Meng Xuan scolded and urged.
Without waiting for Xiao Ye and Chen Guang's urging, Chen Yu felt that he had stepped onto the iron chain bridge.
Xiao Ye looked at Chen Yu with a strange expression and said, "This is the first time I've seen such a self-aware person. The previous disciples that committed the crime would either collapse into a ball or refuse to enter. It would be great if everyone could be so carefree! "
"Hey!" Meng Xuan chuckled and said: "He killed a blood river among the City Battle Trial. If he had turned soft here, there wouldn't have been so many people who hated him to the bone!"
Xiao Ye and Xiao Ye didn't dare to chat with Meng Xuan for too long, so they quickly caught up with Chen Yu.
The astral wind whistled as the iron chain swayed. Chen Yu was as stable as a rock and quickly approached the tower's body.
At this moment, Chen Yu could clearly see the mottled marks on the tower!
