The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 617 Purple Thunder Tower

Yu Lei Sect, Zi Lei Mountain, Shangguan Yun’s Cave Mansion.

Shangguan Yun had just received a communication talisman and his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.

Outside the cave, Pan Chengfeng tidied his clothes, bowed and shouted: "Master, I have something to ask you~"

Shangguan Yun heard Pan Chengfeng coming, put away his thoughts and said calmly: "Come in~"

As soon as Pan Chengfeng entered the room, he noticed that Shangguan Yun was not quite right, and asked with concern: "Uncle Yun, what's wrong? You look so sad?"

Shangguan Yun touched his handsome face and said, "Is it so obvious?"

Pan Chengfeng laughed and said, "Haha, I was just kidding. I just felt that Uncle Yun seemed to be worried, so I just said this casually~"

Shangguan Yun said angrily: "You are becoming more and more unruly. You actually dare to make fun of our sect!"

Pan Chengfeng quickly patted his mouth and said, "Hey, I know I was wrong. What happened to Uncle Yun that could give you a headache?"

Shangguan Yun sighed and said, "It's all because of you!"

Pan Chengfeng pointed at his nose and asked in confusion: "Did I cause trouble again? No, I stayed in the cave for the past two days and didn't go out..."

Seeing Pan Chengfeng thinking with a puzzled look on his face, Shangguan Yun chuckled and said, "It seems that you have caused too much trouble and you can't even remember it yourself?"

Pan Chengfeng scratched his head and said, "That's impossible. Could it be some trivial matter? What is it?"

Shangguan Yun stopped teasing him and said, "It's what you told me last time, about the Yu family practicing black thunder."

Pan Chengfeng suddenly realized: "So that's what happened. What happened?"

Shangguan Yun sighed, "This matter is of great importance, but the spy I planted in the Yu family didn't even get any information.

There are only two possibilities for this kind of thing. Either the spy was discovered, and the Yu family pretended not to know to reassure me and prevent me from planting more spies.

Or maybe it's the matter of Hei Lei, which is the top secret of the Yu family. Only the core members of the Yu family know about it, or even only those people in the direct lineage know about it. My spies can't get in touch with it at all."

Pan Chengfeng touched his chin and said, "Both possibilities are very likely. Why doesn't Uncle Yun send someone else to investigate?"

Shangguan Yun said, "I have sent three groups of people to investigate. They are all the refining spies that the Shangguan family has trained for many years. There are 30 people in three groups, and none of them have returned!"

Pan Chengfeng took a deep breath and thought to himself, "This Yu family is really not simple. No wonder they can fight openly and secretly with Uncle Yun and the Shangguan family for so many years!"

Seeing Pan Chengfeng touching his chin, Shangguan Yun chuckled and said, "Okay, don't worry about it. What do you want from me?"

Pan Chengfeng said hurriedly: "Well, Ye Bufan really came to see me. According to what Uncle Yun said, I have pushed it to your side. I guess someone from the Ye family should come to see you soon~"

Shangguan Yun nodded and said, "I have already thought of how to deal with the Ye family. Don't worry. The three sects' competition is about to begin. You should take a good rest these days and don't cause any more trouble."

Speaking of causing trouble, Pan Chengfeng became unhappy and said with a slightly aggrieved tone: "Uncle Yun, am I the one causing trouble? A rookie dares to hit on Shuang'er. If I don't react, am I still a man?"

Shangguan Yun sneered, "How dare you talk nonsense in front of our sect? If your thunderstorm hits Ye Ao, even if he is not disabled, he will have to lie in bed for several years!"

Pan Chengfeng shrank his neck and thought to himself, "I can't hide it from Uncle Yun..."

Shangguan Yun thought for a moment and added, “The competition will begin in a month, and people from the Beast Taming Sect and the Ghost Taming Sect will be here.

In addition to them, some people from the top ten sects in Dongzhou, such as Qingyun Sect, Guiyi Sect, Lingxiao Sect, etc., will also come. Although you probably won’t have to take part, you still have to come out to deal with them~"

Pan Chengfeng didn't know what the Three Sects Competition was about, so he asked curiously, "Uncle Yun, how is the Three Sects Competition going to be? Is it as difficult as the Sect Competition? Just go up and fight?"

Shangguan Yun smiled and said, "The three sects' competition has lasted for ten thousand years, how can it be so simple to just fight a magic and it will be over?

This year's competition is similar to previous years, divided into three rounds, each with 100 points. After the three rounds, the sect with the most points will win first place, and the top ten can enter the Purple Thunder Tower to practice for a year~"

"That's all?" Pan Chengfeng wondered if the sect was being too stingy, so he asked, "Just go to that Purple Thunder Tower to train for a year? No other rewards?"

Shangguan Yun smiled and said: "Although there are rewards of magic weapons and spirit stones, the biggest benefit is still the Purple Thunder Tower.

People from other sects also came here for the Purple Thunder Tower quota, especially Yun Feiyang, who needs to practice in the Purple Thunder Tower the most~"

"Purple Thunder Tower?" Pan Chengfeng had always known about this thing, but he didn't know what it was used for, so he asked, "What's so special about this Purple Thunder Tower? Why do we have to practice in it?"

Shangguan Yun looked at Pan Chengfeng with a puzzled look and said, "You still don't know what the Purple Thunder Tower does?"

Pan Chengfeng asked in confusion, "What do you do?"

Shangguan Yun rolled his eyes, but thinking that Pan Chengfeng had only been in the Yu Lei Sect for a short time, he might not know, so he explained: "The Purple Thunder Tower is one of the quasi-immortal treasures of our Yu Lei Sect. It is a law-based immortal treasure. The speed of time flowing inside the tower is ten times that outside. In other words, ten days of cultivation inside is only one day outside!"

Pan Chengfeng opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "Spirit Time House?!"

"Oh? Don't you know about the Purple Thunder Tower?" Shangguan Yun asked in surprise, "How do you know that practicing in it is very helpful for spiritual power?"

Pan Chengfeng quickly closed his mouth and said, "I'm just guessing. This treasure is so powerful, then Uncle Yun, you have been practicing in it, haven't you left everyone behind?!"

Shangguan Yun smiled and said, "You wish for it. Do you know how much it costs to activate such a heaven-defying attribute?

Every time it operates for a year, the Purple Thunder Pagoda needs to replenish ten years of energy.

Moreover, for us cultivators in the fusion stage, one year and ten years actually do not make much difference, but cultivators in the spirit transformation and emptiness stage can still gain considerable benefits from practicing there.

For example, Yun Feiyang comprehended the law of time, and his training in the Purple Thunder Tower has been of great help to him, so Feiyang should go all out in this three-sect competition~"

"So that's how it is~" Pan Chengfeng started to have some ideas in his mind. He wanted to go in and practice, otherwise when would he be able to reach the Nascent Soul stage?

Shangguan Yun saw what Pan Chengfeng was thinking and said with a smile: "If you want to go in and practice, you can. There are ten places available, and you can enter as long as you are in the top ten.

If you don't plan to participate in the competition, then you have to pay the spirit stones, 5 million high-quality spirit stones a year."

"What?!" Pan Chengfeng screamed, "Uncle Yun, you are not thinking of taking advantage of me just because I have some spirit stones, right?! I can't pay five million high-quality spirit stones for more than a few times before I run out of spirit stones. Besides, I still need spirit stones to practice!"

"Then you can participate in the competition~" Shangguan Yun said with a smile: "With your strength, it will not be difficult to get a place, but you can't reveal your body training skills."

Pan Chengfeng left Shangguan Yun's cave residence with a conflicted look on his face. He wanted to enter the Purple Thunder Tower to practice, but didn't want to take part in the competition, nor did he want to pay. He was waiting online, quite anxious.
