Chapter 310
310 The silver Sky corridor
‘Deep sea scepter’ could be used to attack the enemy based on the wielder’s own strength, releasing a water dragon that was equivalent to the wielder’s full-power attack without any consumption.
The Water Dragon and the lightning tomb from the ‘godly sword lightning-controlling true spell’ that Lu chaoxi had displayed earlier formed an extremely exaggerated linkage effect.
Before the Water Dragon could reach him, it had already entered the lightning zone. Lu chaoxi intentionally absorbed the lightning. As the two water dragons got closer to the star Palace guards, the lightning that surrounded them and their bodies became even more dense and terrifying.
When it really hit, it was no longer a simple water dragon, but an attack with a strong compound power.
Lu mingchao had long since escaped through the void. If she got too close, she would be easily affected.
A shocking destructive power was displayed on the star Palace Guard’s body.
Under Lu mingchao’s continuous attacks, the star Palace Guard’s body had already been damaged. Lu Qing had also weakened him. Under the attack of chaoxi’s powerful combined technique, the star Palace guard could not withstand it no matter how strong his defense was.
The bodies of the star Palace guards were first blasted into pieces by the lightning tomb, unable to move at all. Then, the Water Dragon was slammed to the ground by the powerful impact, and the armor on its body had obvious cracks. In the end, the water and lightning exploded, blowing up the fourth rank Star Palace guard. His fragments scattered along with the current, no one knew where they went.
The fourth order Star Palace guard wasn’t the only one who had been seriously injured or even killed. The power that the Water Dragon released caused waves to surge in all directions, and it even brought with it violent electric currents. The ordinary guards that had been caught in the water were no longer able to escape. Only a few Tier 3 guards, who had reacted relatively quickly and thrown their weapons into the air, managed to Dodge the attack. The rest of the Tier 3 guards had fallen into the water, most likely not going to survive.
As for the cultivators of the Lu clan, they were very disciplined in battle. In the beginning, when they faced enemies that outnumbered them by far, those who were not strong enough had already formed a formation under the leadership of Lu mingling and Lu Chaohe. They steadily advanced and killed the enemies. They were not too scattered. Only Lu Weiwen was in a killing frenzy. In addition to her special combat style, she didn’t stay in the array formation obediently. Instead, she rushed out and slashed people with her newly acquired third order flux star blade.
When Lu chaoxi’s lightning and water wreaked havoc everywhere, the cultivators, who were further away and had formed a formation, were not particularly affected.
Lu Chaohe had made a huge contribution. Seeing that the situation was not good, he activated his gravity divine ability. With the help of the array, he gathered almost everyone’s strength and blocked the water with electricity that was spreading over.
This was also the reason why Lu chaoxi had thought that his moves might not be able to control the final scene and might hurt the family members behind him. However, he had still used this combo of Thunder tomb and water dragon. It was because he trusted Lu Chaohe very much. He would definitely be able to block the power that he could not control and not hurt his own family’s disciples by mistake.
Of course, that was if Lu Chaohe failed to do so.
Didn’t that mean that his father was still there?
What’s there to be afraid of!
That was indeed the case.
Even for Lu Weiwen, who was outside the formation, her own defense was already very, very strong. It should not be a problem for her to withstand the aftermath. However, Lu Qing still put on a layer of wooden man armor for her to further ensure her safety as a precaution.
Lu chaoxi urged Lu Qing to teach him a lesson when they returned.
He couldn’t rely on himself for everything.
But then again, the results of Lu chaoxi’s attack were clear.
After the fight, when the scene had calmed down a little, it was obvious that there were only a few Star Palace guards still alive and able to move in the entire building.
As for the remaining few stage three ones, he could take care of them with a casual move.
No matter what, with old ancestor Lu leading the team, this battle was more like a test of the Lu family cultivators ‘combat strength through actual combat. The danger was very low.
Of course, the more important goal was the furnace placed in the center of the entire building.
Lu chaoxi’s area-of-effect attacks had inevitably spread to the area around the furnace. At first, Lu Qing had been worried that the smelting furnace would be destroyed. That would be troublesome. He had even wondered if he should take action to protect it.
However, he soon realized that he didn’t need it. Be it the water or the lightning, they did not cause any substantial damage to the star furnace. It was as if there was a magical force protecting the surroundings, preventing water from entering. The electric current was also directed to the two sides, unable to enter.
After the Lu family members killed all the star Palace guards around the star furnace, Lu Qing received a notification from the system.
arcane realm building: star furnace
[ unlocking completed ]
[ within this building, you can infuse spiritual metal and stone materials from the outside world with the power of the stars, causing them to carry the characteristics of the stars. ]
in this building, the use of the star furnace to forge magical weapons can be greatly enhanced, such as the use of a Supreme-grade crafting furnace or a Supreme-grade fire room. [ the bonus obtained is related to the level of the refiner himself. ]
the success rate and the power of the star power Magic item forged using the star furnace will be increased to a certain extent.
the star furnace is constantly absorbing the star power around it. You won’t be eroded by the star power when you’re beside the furnace.
……
Just as Lu Qing had expected, the building in the mystic realm, which was called the ‘furnace’, was related to forging and refining weapons.
This furnace was equivalent to a top-grade crafting furnace and a fire room, and there was no limit to its grade. According to the description, it seemed that any craftsman of any level could enter it and use the star furnace to work. They would also be able to obtain the maximum bonus equivalent to their current refining level.
The most important point was that the Lu clan had been worried that as the number of guards in the star Palace decreased, the clan would lack the materials to forge the flux star sword and star suppression Jade plate. The already mature industry would decline due to the shortage of materials.
He didn’t need to worry about it now.
The Lu clan could obtain some spiritual metal and stone materials from the outside world and use the star furnace to refine them into star power materials. This would continue to maintain the industry of the flux star sword and star Jade suppression plate. Furthermore, the effects of the star power magical equipment that was forged through the star furnace would be further improved.
Furthermore, the last property of the star furnace was also very important.
Human cultivators couldn’t survive for too long in the ‘space beyond’ secret realm. This place was filled with star power. Although it would greatly increase a cultivator’s cultivation speed, it would also erode the cultivator’s body. People would die if they stayed for too long.
However, as the star furnace was constantly absorbing the surrounding star power, the concentration of star power in the nearby area had fallen. Although people could not greatly increase their cultivation speed here, they did not have to worry about the invasion of Star Force. This allowed the Lu family’s blacksmiths to stay around the furnace for a long time and maintain their working conditions.
Of course, since the star furnace was located in the secret realm ‘outside the starry sky’. .. The secret realm was not made public to the outside world. Therefore, the weapon refinement master sent by the Lu family should be a direct descendant of the Lu family. The so-called ‘guest craftsmen’ hired from the Lu clan’s Weapon Workshop would most likely not enter the place. At most, they would be in the original Lu clan’s workshop and deal with some non-core weapon-refining work.
Of course, as the Lu family’s business expanded, the family’s manpower was becoming less and less.
It wasn’t a good thing to keep on guard against those hired armament Masters or other talents as outsiders.
The Lu clan had already actively started to engage in marriage with outsiders.
If it was intermarriage, it was still mainly based on the personal opinions of both parties. The family would only organize blind dates to create opportunities for both parties. This was to allow the cultivators without partners to interact more with each other.
As for whether it would work out or not, it would definitely depend on the individual’s choice.
If they were to be married, the Lu clan would also treat their in-laws as one of their own. In Lu Qing’s system, regardless of whether it was a woman who married into the Lu clan or a man who married into the Lu clan, they were all counted as family members by the system.
Even if they did not become in-laws with the Lu family, there was still a chance for them to be accepted as a direct descendant of the Lu family.
However, he would not be able to enter Lu Qing’s system if he did that. There was still a layer between them.
At the moment, the first to use the characteristics of the star furnace was not the family’s artifact Masters, but the team of cultivators who were on the expedition to the mystic realm.
After a battle, there would always be some consumption that needed to be recovered.
There had to be a place for recovery.
The characteristics of the star power outside the starry sky made it impossible to stay here for a long time. This was especially true after the consumption of one’s spirit power and true Qi was relatively large. If one were to cultivate here, the corrosion of star power would become even more serious.
However, there was no need to worry about this problem around the star furnace.
This was a pleasant surprise, and Lu Qing felt much more at ease. At first, he was still in a dilemma. After a battle, there would not be any reduction in the number of people. However, after everyone rested for a while, they had to leave the arcane realm because of the erosion of star power. They could only return to attack other arcane realm buildings after the erosion was resolved in the outside world.
Of course, this would not be a problem, and it would be very safe. However, it would still take too much time.
Now, there was no need to worry. They just had to stay beside the furnace and take some prepared spirit stones to recover. After a period of time, when everyone’s condition had been adjusted, they would have time to attack the second and third Secret realm buildings.
By then, the time that they could stay in the mystery Land would be almost up. The remaining two might really have to wait until the family cultivators on the expedition had almost completely removed the star power erosion in their bodies before they could fight again.
However, Lu Qing might not even need to personally lead the team by then. Lu chaoxi and Lu mingchao’s cultivation had increased very quickly. With Li Yanling’s help, it should not be too much of a problem for the three of them to deal with the guards of the secret realm’s buildings.
In fact, not every one of the five secret plane buildings had two 4th rank guards. The star furnace was one of the more difficult ones to fight. The other one was the silver Sky corridor, which also had two stage four guards. The remaining three secret plane buildings only had one stage four guard each.
Lu Qing was prepared to take a break before he led the team out of the stellar furnace to attack the silver Sky corridor. He would then look for a third target if there was enough time. If it wasn’t enough, he would just end it and leave three for chaoxi and the others to fight in the future.
In fact, Lu Qing was already not interested in a battle of this level.
……
Three days later, the Lu family’s high-level cultivators had basically recovered to their peak. At the same time, Lu Mingjie led the clan’s direct line of refiners into the Star furnace.
Lu Qing’s team had just cleared the area along the way. It was relatively safe, and they did not have to worry about encountering a large number of Star Palace guards or any danger.
When they entered the furnace and were attracted by the special furnace in the middle, they began to try to learn how to use the huge furnace and the working table beside it. Lu Qing led the team of cultivators and set off again. Their destination was the ‘Silver Sky corridor’.
The silver Sky corridor was very beautiful!
The entrance was a flight of stairs that could allow ten people to walk side by side.
Looking up from the steps, the higher one went, the stone steps would gradually lose their physical form and turn into glass-like steps that even reflected Starlight. Further up, there was a corridor made of pure light that seemed to run through the sky.
This was the silver Sky corridor.
Lu Qing had explored the other end of the corridor in his physical form before. It was a Starlight Square in the sky. However, Lu Qing guessed that the square itself might not be anything special. It might even be a part of the silver Sky corridor. After all, in the system’s introduction, the name of this mystical realm building was ‘corridor’.
Back then, Lu Qing was in his consciousness form. He did not feel anything special about him. He didn’t know what kind of special changes would happen when a physical body walked through this corridor.
However, on the steps along the way, there were hundreds of Star Palace guards guarding outside the ‘Silver Sky corridor’. It was impossible to pass through without defeating them all.
The arrangement of the star Palace guards here was basically similar to that of the star furnace.
Lu Qing used the same tactic. He first killed a stage four guard and left the rest to the clan members to deal with.
After the previous experience, whether it was Ming Chao and chaoxi, the two Aurous core stage cultivators, or the others, their performance had become better.
After all the guards were killed, everyone stood on the steps that were gradually turning into light and looked curiously at the silver Sky corridor that was not far away, but no one walked over.
It was best not to try the unknown with his own body.
They all looked at their ancestor, waiting for the next order.
Lu Qing was not in a hurry either. He was looking at the system interface.
