Tianwu Kingdom, Canglan City, Zhuque Street.
In a dilapidated hut.
"There's only one day left, am I going to die?"
Chen Xuan, lying on the bed, sighed lightly and faced death very calmly.
His parents died young, and he made a living by collecting herbs.
Nine days ago, after Chen Xuan went into the mountains to collect herbs in the rain, he has been feeling weak and having a high fever.
The immortal master of the Divine Medicine Valley said that he could only live for ten days at most.
Now, it is the ninth day.
Chen Xuan, who is alone, is now ready to leave this world.
Just as he was about to spend his only day like this, a dazzling colorful light suddenly emerged from his body.
Wow!
A small black tower suddenly floated above Chen Xuan's head.
Before Chen Xuan could react, colorful light burst out from the dark little tower.
Soon, colorful light enveloped Chen Xuan and swept him away quickly.
Buzz!
When Chen Xuan appeared again, he was already under a black tower.
The black tower is over a hundred feet tall and stands in an unknown space.
Looking into the distance, there is only endless emptiness.
Only on the black tower, seven colors of light flickered alternately, which was extremely strange.
Chen Xuan was curious and nervous.
After looking at it carefully for a while, Chen Xuan suddenly became extremely excited.
"Could this be... the black tower I've been carrying around for ten years?"
Ten years ago, Chen Xuan's parents died suddenly and mysteriously.
Before his death, he left behind only this black tower.
This is also the only relic of Chen Xuan's parents.
Chen Xuan carefully kept the black tower close to his body as a keepsake.
Unexpectedly, when he was dying, this black tower underwent such miraculous changes.
This made Chen Xuan suddenly realize that the black tower left to him by his parents was probably not simple.
After a brief shock, Chen Xuan gradually calmed down.
Standing in front of the black tower and observing carefully for a while to make sure there was no danger in the black tower, Chen Xuan then went up the stairs.
Soon, Chen Xuan arrived at the gate of the Black Tower.
The gate of the Black Tower looks a bit mottled after years of wear, but the exquisite workmanship is still clearly visible.
Looking up, I saw the three words "Beast Taming Tower" written in ancient golden seal script on the lintel.
"Go in and take a look!"
Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment, and when he was about to push the door hard to enter, the tightly closed door creaked open by itself.
A solemn and terrifying atmosphere suddenly hit him, making Chen Xuan feel depressed.
After a long time, when Chen Xuan gradually adapted to this terrifying atmosphere, he slowly walked inside.
What comes into view is an extremely huge hall.
In the center of the hall is a cold pool that is several hundred feet in size.
The cold pool was covered by an extremely huge transparent light curtain and divided into five independent small pools.
Streams of extremely pure spiritual energy floated above the cold pool and gathered into a thick fog.
The thick fog drifted gently and slowly gathered towards an extremely huge stone pillar in the center of the cold pool.
The stone pillar is more than ten feet high. From a distance, it looks like an extremely huge five-sided pillar reaching the sky.
There is a huge relief carved on each side of the stone pillar.
The first picture shows a phoenix spreading its wings and soaring in the sky, looking down upon the world with its majestic aura.
The second picture shows a majestic and powerful Qilin, with its head held high and chest puffed out, showing unparalleled pride.
The third picture shows a quiet black tortoise. There are natural runes on its thick shell, which makes it obvious that it is not an ordinary product.
The fourth picture shows a dragon emerging from the water with its fangs and claws bared, its feet moving with great momentum and majesty.
The fifth picture shows an old man standing proudly between heaven and earth. His sharp eyes seem to make all worlds submit.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
"I've heard from my parents that species in the world can be generally divided into five categories: feathered, armored, scaled, and naked."
"What do the reliefs of feathers, armor, and scales carved around this stone pillar represent?"
Chen Xuan looked confused and studied it carefully for a long time, but could not see any clues.
There were no special changes to the stone pillars either.
Just as Chen Xuan squatted beside the pool and put his fingers into the cold water, a striking green light suddenly lit up from the stone pillar.
"this..."
The sudden change made Chen Xuan panic.
Just as he was about to quickly withdraw his hand, a tremendous force rushed into his body.
Soon, this powerful force spread throughout Chen Xuan's body.
A layer of something like dirt was quickly discharged from Chen Xuan's pores.
At this moment, an inexplicable sense of comfort made Chen Xuan feel very relaxed.
Chen Xuan also let this powerful force flow through his body.
After a while, a crisp clicking sound was heard from Chen Xuan's dantian.
The originally chaotic Dantian turned into a green space, as if the world was just created.
A warm current as thick as a needle tip suddenly emerged from Chen Xuan's body and slowly circulated on its own.
The originally unwell body recovered instantly.
All these changes surprised Chen Xuan.
Soon, Chen Xuan reacted quickly, his eyes filled with unconcealable excitement.
"My Dantian has just opened, and my spiritual energy is flowing on its own. Am I already a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage?"
