Chapter 149
149 Breaking the restrictive spell
After Lu Jinchao and Nian Kejun entered the underground tunnel, they walked forward for a while and saw Lu Weiwen standing beside a broken formation, observing it.
“What are you doing?”
shush, shush, shush. as Lu Weiwen said this, fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on her forehead.
She was listening attentively to Lu Qing’s voice transmission as he explained the method to repair the formation. She had dabbled in a little knowledge of arrays, which was considered general education for immortal cultivators. She might not even be considered a level one low-grade array master.
However, the Lu family’s education was not bad. At least, she knew some basic techniques.
Moreover, he only needed to follow the ‘instruction manual’ to repair this formation. This formation was very profound, and the difficulty of setting up a new one was very high. However, Lu Qing had assessed that it would not be difficult to repair it. The core of this protective spell was actually not damaged, but there was a problem with the part that was activated. If he wanted to repair it, he didn’t need to process any special materials, nor did he need any special formation technique or ability. He just had to do it according to the blueprint.
Lu Qing had already memorized all the blueprints. It was just that it was a little troublesome to describe them in words.
Lu Weiwen was naturally intelligent and learned quickly.
She began to take action under Lu Qing’s guidance.
Lu Qing had spent a lot of karma to transmit his voice this time. However, there was nothing he could do about it. Compared to his gains, the karma he had spent on voice transmissions was worth it.
Lu Jinchao and Nian Kejun panicked a little when they saw Lu Weiwen moving and seemed to be setting up this formation. Even Jin Chao’s mind was picturing a scene where an old monster was trapped here and bewitched Lu Weiwen to come over and unlock a certain key point, then let her out.
‘F * ck, now that I think about it, they do look alike!’
Lu Jinchao decided that he could not let Lu Weiwen continue like this.
“Weiwen, don’t be deceived. How could the family’s ancestor send you a voice transmission from such a long distance, even across a world?”
She tried to persuade Lu Weiwen.
However, Lu Weiwen was not that easy to persuade.
As she controlled the magic tool, she told Lu Jinchao about the story of his older cousin, Lu Wenen.
After he said this, Lu Jinchao was a little suspicious.
She used her eyes to ask her husband if he wanted to help.
Nian Kejun thought for a moment and felt that this might be a great opportunity. The two of them were in their twilight years. No matter how great the opportunity was, they might not be able to use it. However, Lu Weiwen was still young. If she really had a fortuitous encounter, it might be her good fortune.
Of course, the risk was not small, and it was even unacceptable.
However, in the cultivation world, what was without risk?
From this, it could be seen that the two of them, who spent most of their time outside, had fundamentally different ideas from the cultivators of the family.
Of course, they would also evaluate the risks and benefits, but often, when faced with great risks, the cultivators of clans and sects would not contribute no matter how many benefits they had. If they died, they would not be able to enjoy any of the benefits. However, these people who were out there often had the idea of ‘taking a gamble and turning a bicycle into a motorcycle’. As long as the expected profit was big enough, they would even dare to take the risk of death.
In fact, Nian Kejun still didn’t believe what the ancestor said. However, there was always a reason for everything, and the voice that Lu Weiwen heard naturally had a source. He was willing to take the risk because the source was good.
The two of them whispered to each other for a moment and reached an agreement.
With the help of the two of them, the progress was much faster.
Two days later, the three of them, who had taken a few breaks in between, finally tidied up the entire array.
“This is the most crucial step.” Lu Weiwen wiped the sweat off her forehead.
On the other hand, Lu Jinchao and Nian Kejun’s faces were filled with solemness.
When the formation had just been completed, the two of them were already in such a mood. They were very worried that a monstrous demon would charge out as soon as the formation was set up.
However, this did not happen. There was still one last step to start.
Even if they had already made a decision before and had even helped Lu Weiwen to this extent, they would still be nervous at the last moment.
The couple looked at each other. They would do this every time at such a juncture, as if it had become a ritual step. But at least doing so was very useful to them. It was also because of their mutual encouragement and support that they were able to get to where they were today.
“Ka-Chak, ka-Chak!”
The two of them looked forward in shock and saw that Lu Weiwen had already activated the array when the two of them were still looking at each other affectionately.
We’re not even mentally prepared yet. You little girl, why did you start driving a Kasaya?
However, they couldn’t say much at this time. The earth cracked open in front of their eyes.
In the crack, a passage leading downward appeared. There were stone steps leading to the depths of the underground.
Lu Weiwen walked down directly.
let’s wait, Qianqian. Forget it, Qianqian. Lu Jinchao smiled bitterly and could only follow her with his husband.
The two of them were more cautious, which made Lu Weiwen, who was in front, a little anxious.
She turned around and said,”you two, hurry up. The elder ancestor said there’s no danger inside!”
“Maybe the old ancestor you’re talking about is waiting for us to deliver the package down there, Yingluo.”
The word ” express delivery ” was something Lu Jinchao heard from his father. She understood what it meant, probably.
As she let her thoughts run wild, her vision darkened. The light from the entrance could no longer shine down.
However, cultivators always had a way.
The three of them each used their own methods and managed to create a ball of light.
Following the light that was created, they reached the bottom.
There was no old devil who had been locked up for thousands of years. What they saw in front of them was a box and many shelves, as if it was a treasure vault that contained many things!
Lu Weiwen cheered, and even Lu Jinchao and his wife, who had seen many things, could not help but breathe faster.
However, they soon experienced the same disappointment as Lu Qing, or even worse.
They opened one of the boxes and saw the withered herbs inside. Their hearts ached-they were all money!
Moreover, after identifying these herbs, he found that many of them were things that could not be bought outside.
That was even more heartbreaking.
After opening many boxes, the same thing happened to them, and they gradually lost hope.
However, just like Lu Qing, they soon found the alchemy manual. After that, they found the Jade slip of the longevity Scripture and the small wooden box that contained two longevity pills on the shelf.
They recognized the alchemy book, but Lu Weiwen definitely did not know what the longevity Scripture and huashou pill were. Even the knowledgeable Lu Jinchao and Nian Kejun could not figure out what these two things were.
They had never heard of the longevity Scripture, nor had they ever seen the huashou pill.
However, Lu Qing noticed a huge problem. After the wooden box containing the two longevity pills was opened, the medicinal effects of the two pills began to show signs of loss!
Perhaps it was because it had been too long. After the wooden box that originally stored them was opened, the corrosion of time began to take effect.
If they didn’t eat it immediately, the medicinal power of the two pills would evaporate before they could take them out of this small world.
He immediately told Lu Weiwen about this and asked her to quickly eat one first.
Lu Weiwen did as Lu Qing said and handed the remaining one to Lu Jinchao.
“The old ancestor wants you to eat the remaining one.”
Lu Jinchao took the pill, but he hesitated.
She looked at Nian Kejun, who was beside her.
