1506 The search for the floating continent_1
Tang Zhen had already gotten used to this kind of frequent teleportation. When he regained his consciousness, he discovered that he was on a floating continent.
A waterfall, a spring, birds chirping, and a fragrant flower fragrance. The murmuring water rolled down from the edge of the cliff and converged on another floating continent below. And even further down was an endless ocean that dotted the islands of various sizes.
It was beautiful, but there was not a single living thing, not even an insect.
Looking at the surrounding buildings, Tang Zhen knew that he had arrived at the core area of the world Tower. In other words, he had successfully passed all the trials.
it really wasn’t easy to come here after a narrow escape.
It was a pity that the place was already empty, leaving only empty buildings that were silently welcoming him, a guest from the world of loucheng.
Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking for a while, Tang Zhen followed the Jade stone stairs and continued to move forward. At the same time, stone tablets appeared in front of his eyes. On them, there were many unfamiliar names.
When he reached the tall building at the end of the steps, an even larger stone tablet appeared before him. On it was an introduction to the history of this world grade tower as well as the details of the trial.
It turned out that this world-class Tower City was called the swirling sea. It had existed for more than 10000 years and was one of the old towers in the fifth battle area.
If a city wanted to continue to develop, it couldn’t be complacent. It had to be supplemented with new blood as much as possible in order to keep the city prosperous.
The brutal trials that Tang Zhen had gone through were to attract and select the cultivators of the city. The spirit of the city would determine the status of the cultivators who would enter the sea spiral tower based on their performance. The better the results of the trials, the higher the starting point.
In terms of cultivation and resource investment, ordinary cultivators and elite cultivators would naturally be treated differently. The higher the grade of the building, the more so.
Under normal circumstances, a cultivator like Tang Zhen would be in charge of receiving him. However, the swirling sea mansion was already empty. Naturally, no one would be there to welcome him.
Tang Zhen recalled the reminder given by the cornerstone platform. It required the participants to collect as many valuable items as possible to obtain the tower’s cornerstone. After the trial mission was over, the points would be awarded based on the items obtained.
In other words, in the following process, he would have to plunder the entire city and take as many things as he could!
Tang Zhen tried to sense the ball of light in his mind and discovered that it could store and withdraw items, but the cornerstone platform could not be traded. Perhaps it was related to this special world, blocking the normal operation of the cornerstone platform.
At the same time, there was an additional notification on the cornerstone platform. As long as you consume your current points, you can exchange for a larger storage space.
However, his sealed cultivation still hadn’t recovered. Perhaps this was the internal restriction of the world Tower. He had to seal his cultivation when he was in the tower to prevent this special world from being destroyed.
Tang Zhen currently had more than a million points. However, this was his guarantee for completing the trial. He didn’t want to use it easily. One must know that it was very easy to use it. However, it would be much more difficult to earn it again.
Therefore, the best way was to obtain high-quality items. That way, he could exchange for more points and save as much space as possible in the light ball.
After sizing up his surroundings, Tang Zhen went deep into the hall and began to search carefully.
As the owner of the City Tower and having a rich accumulation of knowledge, Tang Zhen was not like a headless fly that was searching for the storage location of precious items. Instead, he was able to lock onto the search area within a short period of time and judge the specific value of an item at the same time.
About half an hour later, he finished his search of the hall and moved on to the next building.
The area of this floating continent was very large, and it was impossible to complete the search in a short time. Tang Zhen had already made preparations for a long battle.
As for leaving this floating continent and heading to a higher level region, he still needed to plan carefully. He knew that there was definitely something like a teleportation array here, but without the corresponding authority, it was not easy to teleport away.
The interior of the towers seemed to be integrated into one, but there was a clear level restriction. Some places were not accessible to the residents. The Holy Dragon City was like this, and the swirling Sea Tower was no exception.
Time passed by slowly, and in the blink of an eye, nearly a week had passed.
During this period of time, Tang Zhen had walked around the entire floating continent and searched all the buildings that had been marked. He had also found some valuable items.
During this time, he did not see any other trial-takers, perhaps he was the only one here.
The reason for this was probably because he was the only one who had qualified to enter this floating continent, while the other trial-takers should be on other islands or floating continents.
Although he was very confident in his own trial results, he did not dare to guarantee that there would be someone who would obtain a better result than him. If the other party was searching on a higher level floating continent, then Tang Zhen would no longer have any advantage.
How could the assets of civilians and nobles be on the same level?
During this period of time, Tang Zhen had also discovered the short-distance teleportation formations that led to the other floating continents. Unfortunately, all of them had stopped operating, and they were unable to send Tang Zhen away.
The possibility of repairing the teleportation array was next to nothing. It was even more impossible to rebuild it. Tang Zhen had to think of another way.
At this moment, the knowledge that he had accumulated in the past finally came in handy. After completing the collection of materials, Tang Zhen began the construction of the aircraft.
He had already tested it before and found that there were no flight prohibiting formations on these floating continents, so his plan to build an aircraft would be completely feasible. There was no need to worry about falling into the sea halfway.
Using the collected materials, Tang Zhen created an item similar to a glider. At the same time, he also created a few high-pressure gas tanks to ensure that it would produce a strong thrust when it exploded.
At the same time, he also set up a simple runic magic circle on the aircraft to reduce its weight as much as possible.
After spending three days, the simple flying device was completed. Tang Zhen tested it a few more times to ensure that it would not malfunction during the process of use.
The competition was still ongoing, and there wasn’t much time left for Tang Zhen. He had to head to the higher level floating continent as soon as possible.
After choosing a flat area, Tang Zhen visually estimated the distance to the floating continent in the distance and activated the flying device fixed on his body.
A strong air current spurted out from the air tank that was fixed in place. The aircraft made a sound as if it could not bear the heavy load, but it had also successfully sent Tang Zhen into the sky and headed straight for the higher floating continent.
Tang Zhen estimated the time it would take for the gas to be ejected before he quickly released the second gas tank and continued to rise.
It was closely followed by the third and the fourth. As Tang Zhen’s flying altitude continued to increase and he was getting closer and closer to his target, Tang Zhen’s suspended heart finally relaxed.
He had been worried that his aircraft would suddenly explode. Fortunately, that scene did not happen.
Who would have thought that just as Tang Zhen was preparing to land, a black figure slowly appeared from not far away. It seemed to be a trial-taker with natural wings.
The other party’s target was very clear. It was also the floating continent in front of him. However, he was carrying a bag on his back, which made Tang Zhen certain that this guy was definitely not a cultivator from Lou Cheng.
“I don’t care who you are, don’t even think about snatching my business!”
Tang Zhen coldly laughed. He pulled out a strangely shaped weapon from his waist and aimed at the figure that was continuously approaching.
During this period of time, other than building the aircraft, he had also built himself a weapon for long-range attacks when he could not find a weapon.
With a gunshot, the flying figure in the distance suddenly trembled, then fell rapidly to the sea like a stone.
With his cultivation sealed, this guy would be seriously injured if not dead.
Tang Zhen ignored the curses that were faintly transmitted from below. He controlled the flying device’s wings to pop out and slide toward the continent under his feet.
