Chapter 4719 The Truth About the Pillar of Heaven

On Guanjian Lake.

When Jian Zong's voice fell, Nie Tian actually felt a little suffocated, almost making him unable to breathe.

What shocked him even more was what Jian Zong said.

Jian Zong actually knew that neither he nor Donghuang Zhengrong were from the prison world!

"Nie Tian, ​​you'd better tell the truth, otherwise you can't afford the consequences of angering our sect."

Jian Zong spoke again, and the oppressive aura in the void suddenly became stronger.

Nie Tian felt as if there was an invisible hand in the air, tightly clasping his neck, making it impossible for him to breathe.

He never expected that Jian Zong, who had just paid off the power of Feng Mingyue, would change so quickly.

"Yes, yes."

In the end, Nie Tian nodded and admitted his origin.

"really!"

Jian Zong's expression suddenly changed, and the pressure in the void disappeared instantly.

The water statue looked up to the sky, seeming to think of many things, falling into deep thought, and feeling lost.

Nie Tian didn't know what Jian Zong was thinking, and he was afraid of suddenly offending this crazy woman, so he stood aside obediently, motionless.

There was a vague guess in his mind: something must have happened between Donghuang Zhengrong and Jianzong.

"Nie Tian, ​​I lost my temper just now."

After a long time, Jian Zong finally reacted, smiled bitterly, and said: "It's just to prove a knot in my heart, don't worry about it."

A knot!

These three words made Nie Tian's eyes freeze, and he became more convinced that the relationship between Jian Zong and Donghuang Zhengrong was extraordinary.

If not, it would be impossible for Jian Zong to keep secretly investigating everything about Donghuang Zhengrong.

"Okay, if you have any questions now, just ask them."

Next, Jian Zong did not ask any more questions, but instead spoke with a smile, regaining the refreshing feeling before.

"Lord Jianzong, what are the so-called Tianzhu and Tianzhu plans?"

Nie Tian didn't shy away from anything and asked directly.

He had guessed before that Bai Ziqiu must be hiding something about the Tianzhu plan.

However, judging from Bai Ziqiu's reaction in front of Jian Zong, it was not that he was deliberately concealing it, but that even he himself did not know the truth about Tianzhu's plan.

"I don't know what the Tianzhu is."

Jian Zong was silent for a long time, sighed softly, and then said: "It should be said that no one knows what Tianzhu is."

"What's the meaning?"

Nie Tian frowned, with a look of astonishment on his face.

Since no one knows what Tianzhu is, how can there be a Tianzhu plan?

"According to legend, the Tianzhu is an important support for maintaining the stability of the prison world. If the Tianzhu breaks, the entire prison world will be in danger of collapse."

Of course, Jian Zong understood Nie Tian's doubts, smiled bitterly, and said, "But as far as I know, no one has actually seen the Tianzhu with their own eyes, so they don't know what the Tianzhu is."

"I once read some scattered records about the Tianzhu in the library of the Sword Alliance, so I know that in the history of the prison world, there have been several actions to repair the Tianzhu. At that time, it was also called the Tianzhu Project. ”

"but……"

At this point, she paused suddenly, and continued after a moment: "But unfortunately, none of those who went to implement the Tianzhu plan came back alive."

"this……"

Nie Tian's eyes suddenly froze, and he didn't know what to say.

No wonder Jian Zong didn't want him to participate in the Tianzhu Project. It turned out to be because of this.

Doesn't that mean that participating in the Tianzhu Project is tantamount to committing suicide?

Moreover, since there has been a failed Tianzhu plan before, why should it be implemented again?

"Although none of those who implemented the Tianzhu plan came back, after they went there, the Tianzhu was repaired."

Jian Zong noticed Nie Tian's confusion and nodded.

Nie Tian frowned again and murmured: "Master Jian Zong means that those who implemented the Tianzhu plan repaired the Tianzhu with their own lives?"

Jian Zong's beautiful eyes darkened slightly, and after a long time he nodded and said, "Maybe that's the case."

"Then Bai Ziqiu and the others are involved in the Tianzhu Project. Isn't it dangerous?"

Nie Tian calmed down a little and couldn't help but shake his head.

Bai Ziqiu seemed very happy to be able to participate in the Tianzhu Project, but he had no idea that he was going to die.

"There is nothing we can do about it. The Tianzhu is indeed very important. If it is not repaired, the entire prison world will become unstable."

Jian Zong sighed, seemingly helpless.

"Since the Tianzhu is so important, why not let stronger warriors repair it, but instead send young warriors like Bai Ziqiu?"

Nie Tian was confused and couldn't help but ask.

"There is a natural seal at the entrance to the Tianzhu. It has very special requirements for the warrior's bone age, talent, strength and even mental perseverance. Those warriors with stronger strength cannot pass the seal."

Jian Zong smiled and explained.

"So that's it."

Nie Tian was silent.

"So for so many years, no one knows the real situation inside Tianzhu."

Jian Zong nodded slightly and sighed: "In my opinion, the so-called Tianzhu Project is to sacrifice the most talented people in the prison world in exchange for the short-term stability of the prison world."

Nie Tian's face was gloomy and his heart was silent.

It seems that Tianzhu is like an endlessly greedy monster, devouring the best geniuses in the prison world.

"Lord Jian Zong, why do you want to protect me?"

After a moment, Nie Tian suddenly smiled and asked.

Jian Zong did not let him leave the Sword Alliance just to protect him and prevent him from participating in the Tianzhu Project.

But he didn't quite understand why Jian Zong did this.

Is it because of Dong Huang Zhengrong?

"You are an old friend, isn't it normal for me to protect you?"

Jian Zong smiled and said lightly.

Nie Tian nodded, but he was a little worried.

He felt that Jian Zong must be hiding something.

"In fact, there was a person who entered Tianzhu and came back alive."

Jian Zong suddenly said.

"Who?"

Nie Tian's eyes trembled violently and asked in surprise.

"Dong Huang Zhengrong."

Jian Zong paused and said.

"Senior Dong Huang!"

Nie Tian's heart trembled, and he was shocked and surprised.

"I also heard about this from the former Sword Sect."

Sword Sect nodded and said, "He said that before Dong Huang came to the Sword Alliance, he represented the Prison Realm and participated in the Tianzhu Project. After several years, Tianzhu was stable, and everyone thought that all the people who entered Tianzhu were dead."

"After a few years, Dong Huang came back, changed his identity, joined the Sword Alliance, and always stayed with the former Sword Sect."

"After that, he left the Sword Sect and walked in the Prison Realm as Dong Huang."

"I suspect that Dong Huang's disappearance is also related to the Tianzhu Project of that year."

Nie Tian's face became cold and he was silent for a long time before he finally murmured, "If this is true, then I need to participate in this Tianzhu Project."

Sword Sect looked at Nie Tian, ​​not too surprised, but stopped talking for a long time.

"Here I come!"

After a long time, the Sword Sect suddenly looked up into the sky with great determination in his eyes.
