Palace Tower Formation Gate

Earth Rock Rat's actions fell into the eyes of several monks present.

The two Pseudo-Core True Person don't care much.

They repeatedly explored every corner of this path, and found very little, confirming that nothing was missing.

Tsk~

Earth Rock Rat raised his paw and lightly scratched half of the wall, hearing a tooth-aching friction sound.

There is a shallow crack left on the wall of the ancient building.

The hardness of the wall exceeds that of ordinary Law Artifact.

Seeing this scene, True Person Tan had a trace of sarcasm in his eyes.

"The ancient building materials in this ruins are relatively hard. But they are not high-grade materials. They are the result of quenching and compressing low-grade mineral materials and casting spells."

True Person Hu explained slightly impatiently.

"Hmm."

Lan Chang'an has long seen this.

The buildings here, including the floor materials, are simply hard, lacking in actual grade, lack spirituality, and are not suitable for weapon refining and secondary use.

"I trust Earth Rock Rat's sense of smell."

Lan Chang'an smiled slightly and walked to half of the wall of the ancient building.

In fact, Earth Rock Rat's behavior just now was secretly instructed by Lan Chang'an.

Lan Chang'an took out a Law Artifact pickaxe, ran Law Power, and pointed it at the wall to dig.

When Earth Rock Rat saw this, he also waved his paws and started to slap them.

Bang bang! Bang bang!

One person and one mouse were tapping and tapping rhythmically in front of the wall.

The walls are peeling and cracking bit by bit.

True Person Tan The expressions of the five monks were either strange or disdainful.

Until a certain moment.

Lan Chang'an's Law Artifact pickaxe couldn't knock somewhere on the wall. Instead, it was shaken so hard that the palm of my hand was slightly numb.

The same goes for Earth Rock Rat.

One person and one mouse avoided this small area.

"Huh?"

True Person Hu had a strange expression. Divine Sense carefully explored the area and finally found some clues.

Preliminary judgment shows that the material of that wall is stronger, and Demon Beast in the late second stage cannot be damaged at all.

In addition, that area has a certain shielding effect on Divine Sense and can easily be ignored.

Lan Chang'an and Earth Rock Rat increased their speed and knocked down all the walls around that area.

Soon, a piece of gray-white stone as big as a basin fell into Lan Chang'an's hands.

Parts of the gray-white stone reveal a dark metallic texture.

"What material? Can it shield this True Person and Divine Sense?"

True Person Tan squinted and stared at the stone in Lan Chang'an's hand.

"This is [Shadow Ghost Stone]! It can cover Spiritual Qi and shield Divine Sense. It is an excellent material for creating stealth and shadow type Law Treasure."

Miss Wei Divine Sense with her long hair in a gauze skirt was swept away, she lost her voice in surprise, and her pretty eyes flashed with brilliance.

"It's actually [Shadow Ghost Stone]?"

"The lowest grade of this stone is the third level. This stone can deceive us many times. I am afraid that it has reached the third level and can be used to create Mid-Grade Dharma Treasure."

True Person Tan and True Person Hu looked at each other with emotions in their eyes.

"Little friend Lu, it is still unknown whether this object is [Shadow Ghost Stone]. Let me identify it."

True Person Tan's eyes flickered and he raised his hand.

"It is indeed [Shadow Ghost Stone]. There is no need to identify it. This Miss Wei is very knowledgeable. He actually recognized it at a glance."

Lan Chang'an smiled.

"Show it to me True Person for a look." True Person Tan said calmly.

"Haha! This thing must be related to Lu."

Lan Chang'an put away [Shadow Ghost Stone] and ignored the False Core spiritual pressure emanating from True Person Tan.

True Person Hu held down True Person Tan's arm and winked.

"True Person Tan Don't be impulsive. Although [Shadow Ghost Stone] is rare, its appeal to False Core monks like us is far less than that of the True Pill monks."

After hearing the message, True Person Tan suppressed his dissatisfaction.

Pseudo-Core True Person can only barely use the lowest level Law Treasure, and it still cannot exert its true power.

The common Law Treasure of Cultivation World, like Law Artifact, is divided into low-grade, medium-grade, top-grade and top-grade.

Applicable to Core Formation True Person and most Nascent Soul Realm.

Low-grade Law Treasure, Pseudo-Core True Person and true elixirs are mostly used in the early stage.

Mid-Grade Dharma Treasure is generally used in the middle and late stages of true elixir.

Therefore, the attraction of this third-level high-grade piece [Shadow Ghost Stone] to Pseudo-Core True Person is mainly its value and scarcity, and it can be traded with the true elixir monks.

"Forget it, let him keep this thing for a while."

True Person Tan figured it out quickly.

For the two Pseudo-Core True Person, the biggest expectation in Ancient Ruins is fortuitous opportunity who can make False Core go further.

This kind of fortuitous opportunity is rare in today's Cultivation World, and Nascent Soul True Lord has to cooperate.

However, in the Cultivation World High Antiquity era, fortuitous opportunity, which allowed False Core to go further, was relatively easier to obtain than it is now.

"Little friend Lu, it is your luck to find this [Shadow Ghost Stone]. I will not pursue it for the time being. If the treasure is obtained by jointly breaking the ban later, it will be distributed according to the level of cultivation and effort."

True Person Hu stepped forward and reminded.

"Thank you Master Hu for your adult beauty."

Lan Chang'an Gongshou Dao.

He is ready to True Person Tan force him to hand over [Shadow Ghost Stone].

If that's the case, Lan Chang'an actually doesn't matter, the worst thing is to leave it to the other party to keep it for a while.

Before Golden Core Realm, [Shadow Ghost Stone] didn't have much effect on him.

However, [Shadowless Needle] and [Shadow-Splitting Sword] made of this stone as the main material, including some hidden Law Treasure props, are very suitable for Lan Chang'an.

During Previous Life, Lan Chang'an and Late Core Formation, I spent a lot of money to get a piece of [Shadow Ghost Stone], which was also a third-level top grade piece, but the weight was not as big as this piece.

Because I have dealt with [Shadow Ghost Stone] and am familiar with its characteristics, Lan Chang'an only discovered the clue when Divine Sense passed by it just now.

As far as Lan Chang'an knows, Cultivation World has the highest record [Shadow Ghost Stone], which can reach the fifth level, and is called Shadow Ghost Stone Essence. It can even be used as the refining material of the legendary Spirit Treasure.

"Go and search the area."

In view of Lan Chang'an's harvest, True Person Tan and True Person Hu stopped and led three Foundation Establishment monks to explore the area.

"The ancient building near here once housed an iron smelting workshop."

"The [Shadow Ghost Stone] discovered by Lan Chang'an may have been secretly hidden by the weapon refiner in the workshop."

The two True Person analysis was very clear and logical.

But in the end, there was nothing gained. I just found a few worthless scraps of weapon refining materials in the underground ruins.

"Lu Xiaoyou's Rat Demon Spirit Pet, does it have the blood of Treasure Seeking Rat?"

True Person Hu looked at Earth Rock Rat with a smile, feeling a little jealous.

That piece [Shadow Ghost Stone] is so hidden. Divine Sense hid it from True Person, but Earth Rock Rat could detect the abnormality.

Earth Rock Rat shuddered and hid in the corner of the ruins, ignoring him.

"Maybe it's a coincidence."

Lan Chang'an said perfunctorily.

Earth Rock Rat was just a cover, and I did what I did just with his instructions.

Otherwise, Lan Chang'an himself discovers [Shadow Ghost Stone], which will easily arouse the vigilance of the two True Persons and create more fear and guard against him.

The next third of the explored path.

Lan Chang'an and Fairy Shi are still a stop-and-go investigation.

True Person Tan and True Person Hu became very patient and never urged them again.

Earth Rock Rat If you occasionally reach out your paw and touch it, it will attract everyone's attention.

The rest of the way, there were no decent discoveries.

Finally, the group reached the end of the explored path.

Stopped in front of a bridge.

On the other side of the bridge, the light and ripples of the formation faintly emerged, as well as the hidden Restriction.

Those ruins and buildings were shrouded in mist, hazy, like mirages.

Lan Chang'an smelled a hint of danger.

"Have you ever come into contact with the fourth-order High Antiquity remnant formation here, Fairy Shi?"

True Person Hu asked.

"Strange! I didn't pass this bridge last time, but encountered a garden where there were relatively obvious loopholes in the formation. In the end, we spent a long time and finally passed by luckily."

Shi Manrong looked at this bridge with amazement.

"It's normal. Formations of level 4 and above are beyond common sense and can easily change the geographical environment. Some legendary formations can even distort the scale of space."

True Person Hu looks thoughtful.

"Little friend Lu, please release Puppet and explore the location as I told you."

"Okay."

Lan Chang'an set out this time, in order to conquer the formation Restriction in the ruins, we prepared some worthless cannon fodder Puppet.

With Previous Life's life experience, Lan Chang'an knows that Puppet's detection array is not omnipotent.

Certain formations Restriction and Puppet will not be triggered, and if a monk gets involved, there will be a narrow escape from death.

A "peng" sound.

A ball of invisible orange fire ignited and spread on Puppet's body, exploding quickly.

Cannon fodder Puppet, whose hardness was comparable to Second-Order Monster Beast, was reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.

"Little friend Lu, put another Puppet."

Lan Chang'an Do what you say.

Next, there is the long and boring process of conquering the formation.

If the High Antiquity remnant formation inside the ruins is attacked forcefully, it will cause backlash and even various variables.

This is something Pseudo-Core True Person cannot afford.

Lan Chang'an speculates that at least Late Core Formation needs to be overhauled before trying to break the formation with brute force.

If it is Nascent Soul True Lord, it is safer.

Click!

The second Puppet was swept by several arcs of light that emerged out of thin air, and fell to the ground in pieces.

"Little friend Lu, you are Puppet Master, and you can sense the status of Puppet. If you want to explore further, please pass on some specific information."

True Person Hu ordered.

Two Moon Empress.

Lan Chang'an scrapped more than twenty cannon fodder Puppet.

The ruins of this bridge are halfway forward.

The last two times, Puppet almost reached the end of the bridge.

"Master, the idea you proposed this time is good! To break the formation, you don't have to move forward. Many times you have to make detours, or even retreat in order to deceive the Restriction induction in the formation."

True Person Hu stroked his beard, his face glowed red and he was in a happy mood.

After Fairy Shi joined, he conquered the formation Restriction and gained an additional discussant. The collision of their ideas gave rise to new inspirations.

The speed of breaking the formation is greatly improved.

Of course, this requires Shi Manrong's formation skills, which are not much worse than True Person Hu's, so that the effect of one plus one is greater than two.

At the same time, Lan Chang'an and Puppet Master provide a lot of convenience for conquering the formation.

True Person Tan nodded secretly. The addition of Lan Chang'an and Shi Manrong really helped.

The remaining half of the bridge was successfully conquered in just one month.

Buzz!

A crack of white light about ten feet long appeared at the end of the bridge.

This is the result of three months of hard work.

Shi Manrong has mixed emotions, and she has to admit that this time she broke the formation, far surpassing her previous collaboration with True Person Qi.

Decades ago, True Person Qi spent several years approaching the center of the ruins in order to break the formation.

Lan Chang'an controlled a humanoid Puppet, passed through the crack of white light, entered the other end of the bridge, and walked for more than ten feet without incident.

Puppet is only a preliminary verification.

"You, go in and explore the way!"

True Person Tan's tone was cold and he pointed at Foundation Establishment Middle Stage's Elderly Man.

Elderly Man smiled bitterly, and was the first to step forward, passing through the crack of white light and entering the interior of High Antiquity's remaining formation.

As a result, no accidents occurred.

The remaining six people entered the other end of the bridge one after another.

The strongest True Person Tan is responsible for the rear.

After everyone passes by.

That crack of white light is constantly healing, and will soon be unable to pass through adult humans.

After all, it was through a loophole in the formation, a trick-taking approach, and it did not destroy the foundation of the formation.

At this time, the originally hazy interior buildings of the ruins came into clear view.

The ancient building complex in front of us is majestic and tall, with more exquisite carving details and relatively complete preservation.

Structurally, most of the buildings are residential mansions, commercial and administrative places.

Towards the center, there is a Hexagonal Palace Tower, with a pair of halos suspended above its head, and a blue crystal ball in the center, emitting a surging spiritual light.

"Daoist Lu."

Shi Manrong murmured and made eye contact with Lan Chang'an.

Lan Chang'an immediately understood that this should be the place where "True Person Qi" fell into the trap of the formation.

"That Hexagonal Palace Tower building is the center of the formation inside the ruins. Judging from the architectural style, it should have been left by the original High Antiquity civilization race in the ruins. It was later transformed by the Nascent Soul-level sect in recent times and used as a refuge."

True Person Hu has a sharp eye, and he can see at a glance that Hexagonal Palace Tower is the hub of this ruins.

He had a guess in his mind that judging from the formation and the layout of the building, that place was more suitable as a warehouse and treasure house for a refuge.

On the way to Hexagonal Palace Tower, we passed some ancient buildings, which were all empty.

Of course, it's not nothing.

In some rooms and corners, you can see a small amount of clutter and abandoned objects. Most of them have been weathered by time and have little value.

The name Miss Wei picked up a set of chess pieces in a courtyard. After removing the dirt, they turned out to be intact.

This set of chessboards does not look like Law Treasure, but rather looks like some strange object.

Lan Chang'an Something unusual was discovered on the top floor of a pavilion.

One of the rooms contained Restriction, which has not been erased to this day and continues to exist with the help of the High Antiquity remnant formation.

Peng! Peng!

Lan Chang'an sent two Puppet to test, but before they even touched the door, they were crushed to pieces by invisible forces.

"Don't waste time, you can't crack that Restriction."

True Person Tan said in a deep voice.

The two True Person were attracted to Hexagonal Palace Tower and speculated that there was a significant fortuitous opportunity there as the formation center of the ruins.

The surrounding buildings are at best relics of low value, and the risks are not proportional to the rewards.

Lan Chang'an basically agrees and will give up this place temporarily.

In fact, he has high-quality Restriction-Breaking Talisman and even banned Treasure Talisman.

This is one of the reasons why he dares to enter Ancient Ruins.

Not long after, a group of seven people arrived in front of Hexagonal Palace Tower, which was twenty to thirty feet tall.

On the surface of Hexagonal Palace Tower, there was an obvious formation of light, emitting powerful spiritual pressure, and neither True Person dared to approach easily.

"Six gates? The formation here happens to have six gates? Does it correspond to six different entrances..."

Nearly ten feet apart, True Person Hu looked around Hexagonal Palace Tower, staring at the gold and bronze doors.

Above the six gold and bronze gates, there is an array gate that only an array master can understand.

"Little friend Lu."

True Person Hu looked behind him.

He frowned slightly and realized that Lan Chang'an was actually standing behind everyone?

If it weren't for the fact that after the bridge was broken, the cracks in the formation had overlapped and there was no way out, the two True Person would not have let this happen.

"Understood."

Lan Chang'an took out a child-sized cannon fodder Puppet, and under the instruction of True Person Hu, came to a gold and bronze gate.

Cannon fodder Puppet touched the door with his hand.

Instantly!

A blue thunder streaked across, leaving behind a piece of charred remains.

The two True Person were shocked.

Even if the power of High Antiquity's remnant formation is only 10% to 20% of its peak power, the true elixir cultivator cannot block a single blow.

Lan Chang'an glanced at Shi Manrong doubtfully.

How did True Person Qi temporarily break open a formation gate back then?

Although True Person Qi is also an array master, he is only a second-level array master, and his attainments are far inferior to True Person Hu.

Shi Manrong shook his head slightly, also puzzled.

"Choose this formation gate."

True Person Hu and Fairy Shi discussed for a long time and found one of the formation gates where the power loss was the most serious.

The array gate is just above the bronze gate.

Time passes little by little.

Lan Chang'an occasionally controls Puppet to cooperate in conquering formations, and even does not forget his daily practice.

Another month has passed.

Until this day, Lan Chang'an's cannon fodder Puppet has been consumed.

Several other monks also scrapped some spare Law Artifact.

After some methods of breaking the formation, the loopholes in the formation gate expanded, and the power of the formation slowly weakened.

"Too slow! The other five formation gates are connected to it and will transmit the power of the formation to help it recover."

True Person Hu is not very satisfied.

Now Liang Kingdom Cultivation World has become a battlefield. The longer it takes to conquer this Ancient Ruins, the more variables there will be.

"Little friend Lu, you are Liang Kingdom, the well-known Talisman Master. Do you have a high-quality Restriction-Breaking Talisman in your hands?"

True Person Hu spoke in a gentle tone and went back to negotiate with Lan Chang'an.

"Restriction-Breaking Talisman is too difficult to practice and is very rare. Lu only has a few second-level mid- to high-grade Restriction-Breaking Talisman, and he bought them from Immortal City."

Lan Chang'an is a difficult road.

"Okay, everyone activates the Restriction-Breaking Talisman in their hands and attacks according to the time node I mentioned."

True Person Hu Arrange a moment to ensure that everyone has something that breaks the forbidden rules.

True Person Hu has a Restriction-Breaking Bead, which is a powerful weapon for breaking the ban, and is better than the Restriction-Breaking Talisman of the same level.

True Person Tan has a Quasi-Third-Order Restriction-Breaking Talisman.

The rest of them have at least Restriction-Breaking Talisman of Second-Order High-Grade.

Puff puff boom!

The twisted light transformed by those forbidden objects hit the nodes of the array gate in sequence from weak to strong.

Above the golden and bronze gate, white shadows overlapped and swayed until they suddenly collapsed at a certain moment.

"It's open!"

A strong wind came towards us, knocking several Foundation Establishment monks to and fro.

Two Pseudo-Core True Person, steady your body and look intently.

The gold and copper door, which was originally as stable as a mountain, slowly loosened, revealing a gap and shining with a pearly light.
