Chapter 700 A Killing Formation Even Han Li Couldn't Break!
Xiao Yan had only meant to make a joke, but seeing how serious Sun Wukong was, he didn't continue the topic.
After all, he was just an alchemist, not a matchmaker.
However, what was said unintentionally was taken to heart by the listener.
Upon hearing the conversation between Xiao Yan and Sun Wukong, the female cultivators blushed.
It's important to know that their bodies are all hairy.
It is only because it is easier to touch the great Dao of this world when they take human form that they move in the world in human form.
In fact, it's not just them; cultivators from all the major races in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths basically live in the world in human form, and they do the same in their daily cultivation.
Furthermore, how can a human form be considered hairless?
They have fur too, you know?
It's just that those few hairy areas were covered up by clothing.
At this moment, a young female cultivator blushed and muttered softly, "Why is this monkey talking like that? Who doesn't have fur... I just didn't show it."
However, she was pulled by her companion as soon as she finished speaking: "Don't say anything, that's Zhu Chen's friend, we can't afford to offend him."
The female cultivator pursed her lips, wanting to say something more, but in the end she didn't dare to speak.
Zhu Chen shook his head as he watched Xiao Yan joking with Sun Wukong, then turned his gaze back to the stone tablet.
At this moment, within the Immortal Ancient Ruins, Han Li's work of breaking the restrictions was finally coming to an end.
"--boom!!!"
A vortex shot into the sky.
The final barrier was successfully broken in his hands.
The light on the portal dimmed completely, and the transparent portal slowly opened, revealing a deep passage.
"It's open!"
Lin Dong shouted excitedly.
Han Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long breath: "I have finally succeeded in my mission. All the restrictions behind this door have been broken, and everyone can go in now."
Upon hearing this, Shi Hao went inside first.
The crowd followed closely behind.
The spiritual energy in this small world is extremely rich; Shi Hao and his companions even discovered a spiritual spring here.
However, because they were eager to find the precious medicine, they did not linger.
The group followed the Moon Jade Rabbit and Cao Yusheng through the mountains and forests, eventually arriving at an abandoned courtyard.
This place covers only a few acres, surrounded by ruins, with unknown vines growing on the top of the walls.
Looking around, everyone saw a mottled stone plaque above the courtyard gate, the characters on it blurred and indistinct, only a few ancient characters could be vaguely discerned.
"This is it."
The Lunar Jade Rabbit pointed to the courtyard and lowered its voice, saying, "The sacred herb that the people from the Demon Dragon Dao Sect discovered should be in this courtyard. The scent I smelled was coming from here." Han Li took a deep breath, his nostrils flaring slightly.
next second.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes: "Indeed, there is a rich medicinal fragrance in the air here. This medicine is extremely fragrant and pure, and it is definitely not something that ordinary spiritual herbs can emit. This precious herb is at least at the level of a sacred herb, or even higher."
Lin Dong's eyes lit up: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go in!"
After saying that, he tried to walk inside.
Just then, Shi Hao suddenly raised his hand to stop him.
Shi Hao glanced at the ruins in the courtyard and whispered, "No rush. Look at those walls, there seem to be traces of magic arrays."
Following his gaze, everyone saw lights occasionally flickering on the ruins.
The lights flashed and disappeared in an instant, but each time they lit up, the surrounding air would tremble slightly, emitting a heart-pounding fluctuation.
Cao Yusheng's expression changed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "This is a killing formation, and not an ordinary killing formation, but an ancient formation that can kill even god-level experts!"
The Lunar Jade Rabbit also put away its playful smile, its expression becoming extremely solemn: "I smelled the scent of the precious medicine outside, but I didn't dare to come in because of these formations. These formations are different from the restrictions outside. They weren't set up by the people of the Demon Dragon Dao Sect, but rather they already existed within the Immortal Ancient Ruins. They must have been set up by the person who left this precious medicine back then to protect it."
"Let me take a look..."
Han Li stepped forward and carefully examined the magic array patterns on the broken walls.
However, as time went by, his brows furrowed more and more, and even fine beads of sweat began to seep from his forehead.
A moment later, Han Li suddenly shook his head and took a few steps back. He turned to look at everyone and said, "These formations are extremely profound. The formation skills of the person who set them up are far above mine... no, I should say they are above all the formation masters I have ever seen. The way these patterns, runes, and formation eyes are arranged is completely different from the formations of this era. They should be ancient techniques passed down from the Immortal Ancient Era. I am powerless to do anything about it."
Han Li's tone carried a hint of helplessness, and even a touch of frustration.
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong immediately became anxious: "Third Brother, even you can't understand it? What should we do then?"
Luo Feng frowned and asked, "Can we force our way through the formation?"
Han Li shook his head: "No, these formations are powerful enough to kill a god-level expert. With our current cultivation, forcibly breaking the formations would be suicide. Moreover... these formations are interconnected, and moving one would affect the whole thing. If we rashly trigger them, it might cause a chain reaction, and the entire space would be destroyed. We wouldn't be able to save that precious herb either."
Qian Renxue was silent for a moment, then asked, "Should we call Second Brother? He's an expert in enchantments; is there any chance he can break it?"
Han Li said thoughtfully, "Second Brother is indeed proficient in restrictions, but he is currently on his way to Tianyun Star and is in seclusion. We may not be able to contact him. Moreover, even if he were here, he might not be able to break them. These ancient formations are completely different from the current formation system. Only people who have studied ancient immortal formations can understand them."
As Han Li finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room became incredibly oppressive.
After painstakingly breaking through the outer barriers, they finally arrived in front of the precious medicine, only to be blocked by an ancient magic array.
The feeling is like walking in the desert for three days and three nights, finally seeing an oasis, only to find that there is a transparent glass wall outside the oasis.
You can see it, but you can't touch it, and you can't drink it.
The Moon Rabbit squatted on the ground, resting its chin on its hands, and said angrily, "I knew I shouldn't have brought you. It's even more painful to see but not be able to eat..."
Cao Yusheng smiled and comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, there will always be a way..."
After saying that, he turned to Shi Hao and asked, "Brother Shi Hao, why don't we first cordon off this place and prevent others from getting close, and then slowly study these formations? I also have a killing formation on me. If we brainstorm together, we'll surely find a way to break it..."
