Chapter 243 Join hands and enter the cave! It was secret back then! Treasure in hand! (Please subscribe)
“It seems that the Mulan people must be preparing to deal with the unexpected people in the south these years. I didn’t see a few high-level Mulan magicians along the way...”
Lu Tiandu used the wind escape technique to turn into a breeze and passed through the Yu Kingdom all the way south into the wilderness of thousands of miles. He thought to himself.
The war between Mulan and the Yan people of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance basically happens every hundred years, mainly to snatch various resources. The most recent one was not long before he returned to Tiannan from the Chaos Star Sea. It is estimated that there are still fifty or sixty years before the next war.
Based on the original plot, it was during this period that the Mulan people were beaten to a pulp by the unexpected people, which turned what was originally a conventional war with the Nine-Nation Alliance into a life-and-death battle.
Lu Tiandu had long wanted to take advantage of the war between the Mulan people and the Tutu people to make a huge fortune from the war by selling low- and middle-level puppets. This road was already very close to the mainland of the Mulan people, and he didn't even see a few golden elixirs. The young magician became more and more certain of his suspicions.
"In that case, I will just go to Mulan Grassland after the incident in Fallen Demon Valley. Although basic materials such as spiritual stones are poor on this grassland, there are many rare materials. Get it from Tiannan The value is astonishing and there is a lot of profit!”
Because the monks of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance will face invasion and plunder by the Mulan people every hundred years, the commercial exchanges between the two sides are basically zero.
If you want to come here on the mainland, there should be a lot of specialties in the vast grassland. If the Mulan people had business acumen, their lives would not be so tight.
In addition to sending some spies to infiltrate some big forces in Tiannan to secretly obtain certain resources, the Mulan people rarely sell the rare resources on their own territory to Tiannan monks. Instead, they only know how to rob and scrape through war. Land, it's really unwise.
After all, the Mulan and the Tu people are feuding people, and both sides have been fighting for survival on this prairie all year round. The friction between the Mulan people and the Yan people is not irreconcilable.
If the Mulan people know how to establish fair commercial exchanges with Tiannan, and have Tiannan's various material support, the strength of the Mulan people will definitely improve a lot, and they will win in the battle with the Tuchu people. But it is possible to stabilize the original territory.
The Tiannan monks have many rare materials, elixirs and other resources from the grasslands, and their overall strength will also increase a lot, which is a win-win situation for both parties.
Thinking of this, Lu Tiandu became more and more interested in the transaction with the Mulan people.
Going all the way south, approaching the edge of the grassland, Lu Tiandu turned to the west. More than a hundred miles later, a breeze suddenly stopped in front of a small bare rock mountain, revealing Lu Tiandu. figure.
This mountain is only a few hundred feet high, and is covered with huge gray-white rocks. There is no grass growing on it, and it looks as ordinary as the many hills that Lu Tiandu passes by.
But Lu Tiandu naturally knew that this was the secret cave of Master Cangkun.
Lu Tiandu's consciousness was fully activated, and he randomly scanned the location within a radius of three hundred miles. After finding nothing out of the ordinary, he released Nangong Ping and Leng Qingqiu.
"Is this the secret cave of Master Cangkun?"
Nangong Ping, who was dressed in white palace clothes and without a veil, casually looked at the hill in front of him and asked with a smile.
"Just under this hill."
Lu Tiandu smiled and nodded to the two women. He stretched out his hand and found two small flags in his hand.
The two small flags are both several inches in size. One is green light, extremely crystal clear, and the other is yellow light, with hidden runes fluttering. They are not ordinary things at first glance.
It is the two Kaishan flags refined by Lu Tiandu.
Lu Tiandu casually handed one of them to Nangong Ping, and the two of them hung the Kaishan flag in front of their eyes. Their lips moved slightly, and low-pitched spells continued to come out of their mouths.
At the same time, the two small flags began to vibrate on their own and began to flash green and yellow lights respectively.
“Go!”
Almost at the same moment, Lu Tiandu and Nangong Ping volleyed a little higher, and two mountain flags shot out instantly, and the light flashed into a certain rock on the surface of the stone mountain. , there is no trace.
A moment later, under Leng Qingqiu’s surprised gaze, and as the ground beneath his feet trembled violently, a thin crack opened vertically from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, and a soft crack shot out from it. In the white light, the stone mountain seemed to be split in half from the middle.
The incantations of Lu Tiandu and Nangong Ping still did not stop. After a while, the stone mountain finally split into two, and a huge crack opened about ten feet wide. crack.
In the crack, a bluestone staircase leading directly to the ground appeared in front of everyone.
Lu Tiandu and the others put away the spell, and the Kaishan flag turned into two streams of light and flew out, and Lu Tiandu put them away at will.
“Let’s go down and have a look.”
Lu Tiandu smiled faintly and took the lead in walking in.
The stairs are very long, with white moonstones inlaid on both sides, but the further you go down, the colder it becomes.
Soon after, the three of them went deep into the stone mountain about a hundred feet deep. The moonlight stone no longer gave off a faint white light, but for some reason turned into a dark green color, making the passage look a bit dark and unclear, full of eerie atmosphere. .
“Be careful!”
Lu Tiandu warned.
After all, it was his first time to enter this cave, and Nanlong Hou had not even broken the restrictions on the outside before, so naturally he could not give Lu Tiandu any reference.
The three of them continued to move forward while being on guard.
After walking for a full meal, the three of Lu Tiandu walked into a mysterious hall.
This hall is about tens of feet wide. The four walls are gleaming with blue light, and the whole hall is crystal clear. It seems to be hollowed out and refined with huge jadeite, which looks very gorgeous and dazzling.
"Hey! There is something wrong with this stone wall. Could it be that the Taimiao Divine Forbidden City is planted here?"
Nangong Ping's spiritual consciousness swept towards a wall, but as soon as he touched it, his consciousness was blocked. It bounced back and couldn't penetrate at all.
Leng Qingqiu was also curiously looking around the hall at this moment, exploring every corner, but his spiritual consciousness could not penetrate it.
"That should be it." Lu Tiandu nodded.
At this moment, the entire hall suddenly shook violently, and then a series of loud noises came from behind.
The three of them looked back, only to find that the passage at the entrance had disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by the same wall with flashing blue light.
The entire hall suddenly turned into a dead place.
"It doesn't matter, this should be because the outer ban has activated itself, closing the stone mountain again. Just wait until we open this Taimiao Shen Forbidden and collect the treasure, and then open it again."
There were no surprises or dangers along the way, and Lu Tian felt relieved. Moreover, since the stone mountain was sealed, it happened that Master Mulan from outside was not afraid of seeing anything strange here.
“This Tai Miao Shen Forbidden City seems to be very powerful. If it is broken directly, it may take some time!”
At this moment, Nangong Ping pressed one hand on the crystal wall and felt it silently for a moment. road.
“Let me take a look.”
Lu Tiandu is also very interested in the Taimiao Divine Forbidden City, one of the ten most sacred taboos. He presses one hand on the crystal wall with blue eyes. The light flashed, and I looked carefully.
After a while, Lu Tiandu laughed and said:
“I thought it was the real Taimiao Shenjin. It turns out that Master Cangkun only learned a little bit and was not the complete Taimiao Shen at all. It’s not difficult to break the ban here.”
It turned out that he thought that the ban here was the same as the Dutian Shen Ban in the cave left by Feng Xian. Breakthrough, but after careful observation, he found that the power of this restriction was not as strong as he thought.
According to his guess, regardless of his three-flavor divine wind and body-refining strength, with the help of Nangong Ping, a great monk, and Leng Qingqiu, a swordsman, he can break this restriction in half a day at most.
In the original plot, Han Li, who had average formation skills, was able to break through the Taimiao Shen's forbidden zone with four sets of formation flags and at the same time secretly send Silver Moon in. This also shows from the side that although this forbidden zone has The names of the ten ancient divine bans actually have no corresponding power.
As for the "a period of time" that Nangong Ping mentioned before, it was probably only a few days.
“Without further ado, let’s use the formation to quickly break the formation!”
Lu Tiandu briefly told the two women about his preparations, flicked his sleeves, and appeared in the air Four sets of array flags were obtained.
The three of them each picked up a dozen formation flags of different colors and walked towards the surrounding crystal walls.
Lu Tiandu opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of purple-gold essence at the formation flag in his hand. With a flash of light, all the formation flags flew up from Lu Tiandu's hands. Under the urging of his divine thoughts, these The array flags flickered and formed a strange array. The flag points were pointed at the surface of the crystal wall and plunged into it.
Looking at the two women casting spells, Lu Tian continued walking towards the last crystal wall without stopping.
In just a quarter of an hour, the formation flags on the four crystal walls were completed. Lu Tiandu clicked on the formation disk in his hand, and then without hesitation he fired several complex spells into the formation disk. The glow on the formation disk and the various formation flags in the four crystal walls shrank and began to flicker at the same time. .
Lu Tian didn't even look at the glow around him, and uttered the word "break" in a low voice. As the sound came out, the glow suddenly rose and made a harsh buzzing sound. The sound became louder and louder, like thousands of birds singing in unison.
There was a loud "bang", and the dazzling glow suddenly burst and spread, and the whole hall suddenly became extremely gloomy.
Only then did Nangong Ping and the two girls realize that the surrounding crystal walls had disappeared without a trace at some point, and were replaced by ordinary bluestone walls. On one of the stone walls, there was also an inlaid door about seven or eight feet high and wide. There is a stone gate three to four feet tall.
“It’s really good to break the formation with the formation!”
Nangong Ping sighed. In fact, she was deeply impressed by Xin Ruyin, a wizard of formations.
The formation books that Lu Tiandu has collected in the Scripture Collection Pavilion of Yaochi Pagoda also include their contribution to the Hiding Moon Sect. She plans to ask Xin Ruyin to be the coverer in the future after his attainments in formations have greatly improved. Yuezong rearranged an ancient formation.
This way, they can rest assured when they go to the spirit world in the future.
The three of them stepped forward. Lu Tiandu flicked his long sleeves on the stone door, and the door easily opened inwards.
Behind the door is another hall that is several times larger than the front, but there is a small and exquisite attic in the middle of the hall.
This attic is carved entirely with sparkling white jade. It is more than ten feet tall and has only two floors. It is extremely exquisite. On the door several feet high in the attic, there are three large silver characters "Yuji Pavilion" written on it. What is strange is that there is an old black and yellow offering table in front of the "Yuji Pavilion".
“Building a loft in the hall looks a bit weird!”
Nangong Ping muttered. Leng Qingqiu also looked at Lu Tiandu in confusion.
"It's quite weird."
Lu Tiandu also agreed, "But there are only two restrictions in this cave. There should be no other restrictions here. Let's take a look and talk about it."
Lu Tiandu stepped forward and looked at the old altar table in front of "Yuji Pavilion".
On this altar table is a pair of silver-white scrolls about several feet long. The silver light is shining, and it seems to be something other than ordinary things.
As for the rest of the place being empty, there is nothing. It seems that there are treasures in the attic.
Lu Tiandu casually made the scroll on the altar fly into the air, then rolled and opened with a "swish" sound, revealing the back of a Confucian scholar with a long sword on his back, looking up to the sky.
"Is this Master Cang Kun? The first casual cultivator five thousand years ago?"
Nangong Ping glanced at the embroidered image and said.
“It should be this person.”
Lu Tiandu smiled slightly, “It doesn’t look like there is anything special about this scroll. Let’s go into the attic and have a look!”
Lu Tiandu nodded again, rolled up the scroll, and put it into the stone bead space at will.
But a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth inadvertently.
He has cultivated countless soul-nurturing trees, and naturally discovered that this scroll contained soul-nurturing wood chips, and under his clear and clear spiritual eyes, there was indeed a trace of weakness hidden in it. Incomparable soul.
I think it is a split soul of the ancient demon that was sealed in the Fallen Demon Valley.
Everyone thought that Master Cang Kun provoked the good and the evil and was finally killed by a joint effort. In fact, this person was not killed that year, but was forced to self-destruct after the two puppet incarnations of his cultivation. He used the means of concealing the truth and took the opportunity to escape.
The monks who besieged him at that time did not know about this and always thought that those they killed were Master Cang Kun and one of his incarnations.
However, after this battle, Master Cang Kun was also seriously injured. So after this person rested in peace for several years, he disappeared from the original cave and has not been heard from since.
Lu Tiandu learned from the memory of Nanlong Hou that after this man disappeared that year, he actually came up with the idea of Falling Demon Valley, hoping to find opportunities in Falling Demon Valley to restore his supernatural powers and even go further.
In the end, this person broke into the Valley of the Fallen Demon because he had practiced some magical power that could sense cracks in space, and became the first person to survive the Valley of the Fallen Demon.
However, this person passed away on his own shortly after leaving the Valley of the Fallen Demon.
I don't know whether it was a recurrence of old injuries or whether he was finally plotted by the ancient demon.
Lu Tiandu knew that the statue of the ancient demon with three heads and six arms was enshrined in the shrine on the second floor of the attic. He thought that Cang Kun knew the split soul of the ancient demon clearly, so maybe Cang Kun brought it out on his own initiative.
Perhaps Master Cangkun later took the initiative to switch to the magic method because of this split soul.
As for why Master Cang Kun took his incarnation elsewhere, he was probably afraid of the split soul of this ancient demon.
It is naturally easy to understand why this ancient demon's divided soul did not seize the body or devour Master Cang Kun.
After all, the soul of a deity-incarnating ancient demon can only have the cultivation level of Nascent Soul at most. Master Cang Kun is known as the number one person in Tiannan. It is expected that his spiritual consciousness is much stronger than that of ordinary Yuanhou monks. Be careful. This demon soul may never have a chance.
Thousands of years have passed. Not only has this demonic soul not dissipated, but it has survived through the fragments of soul-nurturing wood in Master Cangkun’s self-portrait. This is probably something Master Cangkun never expected. .
Or there is another possibility. This soul-nurturing wood fragment was specially found by Cang Kun to foster the spirit of this demon soul.
Now that this demon soul has been taken into the stone bead space by Lu Tiandu, he is very curious about the various information in the memory of this demon soul.
And after his blood spirit clone is refined, he can devour this soul and strengthen the clone.
In this way, naturally, the scroll was never obtained by Old Man Yun like in the original plot. In the end, this demon soul acted as Cang Kun's remnant soul and used Lingmiao Garden as bait to trick everyone in the Ghost Spirit Sect into opening the seal of the ancient demon's true form.
The three of them walked around the altar table and came to the small building with the closed door. Lu Tiandu pushed the door of the pavilion open, and it opened with a "squeak".
As soon as the door opened, a dazzling spiritual light came towards them, shaking the three of them for a while before they reacted.
On the first floor of the attic, there were three slender ebony shelves, all filled with things, exuding a dazzling brilliance.
The wooden shelves are divided into three rows and placed in the middle of the first floor of the attic, so that people can see them clearly at a glance.
The first row is full of ancient treasures and magic weapons of different brilliance, there are as many as sixteen. Lu Tiandu took a closer look and saw six ancient treasures and ten magic weapons. Although there are many treasures, there is no top-level ancient treasure.
Shaking his head, Lu Tiandu looked at the other two rows.
The second row is filled with rare materials of different shapes and colors, ranging from iron blocks the size of fists to blood-red and crystal-like gem-like stones.
The third row contains the fewest things. There are only a few small bottles a few inches in size. It seems that they contain some elixirs.
Besides the shelves, there is nothing else but a futon and a pot of shady grass placed at the attic window.
"It seems that the treasures here are average. Let's go to the second floor to have a look."
Lu Tiandu didn't care about the magic weapons, various materials, and elixirs here, and turned to the second floor.
As soon as you enter the second floor, you will feel the scent of sandalwood. As soon as you raise your head, you can see directly that there is a shrine placed in the corner facing the stairs. There is a golden statue of a one-horned demon god with three heads and six arms in the shrine, with a ferocious face and lifelike appearance.
In front of the shrine, there is a small fiery red cauldron, and white mist comes out of the cauldron. The sandalwood scent comes from this white mist.
“What is this?”
Master Cang Kun actually worshiped the demon god, which immediately surprised the two Nangong Ping girls.
"Hey, it seems to be some kind of ancient demon!"
Lu Tiandu naturally knew something about the three-headed and six-armed ancient demon through the Brahma Saint's True Demon Art.
Lu Tiandu turned his eyes from the shrine opposite and hurriedly looked at other corners on the second floor.
A few feet away from the left side of the shrine, there was a seemingly ordinary desk and a wooden chair, with an inkstone, a writing brush, bamboo slips and other things placed on it.
The corresponding place on the other side of the shrine is a jade bed covered with blue mist. Even though it is so far apart, you can still feel the coldness it exudes, as if it is carved from some kind of cold jade. At one end of the jade bed, there are six jade boxes of different sizes placed side by side, which is very eye-catching.
This second floor is obviously the dormitory of Master Cang Kun!
“No one else won the treasure this time!”
Lu Tiandu looked at the six jade boxes and smiled.
