Chapter 243 Threefold Bewildering Soul Formation Dark Sky Insect Grass
Chapter 243 Threefold Bewildering Soul Formation Dark Sky Insect Grass
"It's a Bronze Serpent Puppet. This Immortal's Cave senior's masterpiece in the Path of Puppetry."
Long Yiran, surprised, also added an explanation.
Pulling Wang Yu to continue speeding forward, this action truly startled him. Just a little bit more! The Soul Shattering Finger would have been launched!!
They were still in the Bronze Passage from before, as if they had jumped from one passage to another. In essence, they were still within the Bewildering Soul Formation.
It was just that there was an additional Bronze Giant Serpent chasing from behind.
The Serpent Puppet's speed was not considered too fast. With a Foundation Establishment Cultivator's Movement Speed, slightly empowering it with True Essence would allow one to surpass the Bronze Serpent Puppet. It was evident that the essence was still to break the Bewildering Soul Formation.
This rumbling sound was merely to add some pressure.
Wang Yu broke free from Long Yiran's hand and said softly, "Daoist Long, please refrain from casually touching others. In the Red Kite Region, this can be fatal."
Long Yiran was stunned, "...Got… Got it."
Evidently.
This person was also a Taihu Lake Cultivator, otherwise, she wouldn't be so 'honest'. He didn't dislike dealing with honest people.
Long Yiran probably hadn't stayed in the Red Kite Region for very long, and most of that time was spent in such rarely visited places. Ten to twenty years would be the maximum.
Wang Yu estimated that her identity was inferior to that Taihu Lake Noble Lady, merely a Rogue Cultivator from the Tai Lake Region. She should also be here to complete her inheritance, and perhaps had some story with the Ruan Family of Poison Scorpion City along the way.
After all, her temperament, habits, and reactions in urgent situations.
Were naturally different from Red Kite Cultivators who were born and raised here.
Every time this happened, Wang Yu couldn't help but think that if he had encountered a cultivator with this kind of temperament when he returned to Stone Lake City back then, he might not have returned to the Red Kite Region. This possibility was extremely high.
Unfortunately, he met Chang Xi and Lan Boting.
"Brother Wang, this should be a Multiple Bewildering Soul Formation, at most overlapping three times. We have already passed the first level and are currently in the second level. Give me a moment."
"Easy to say."
The wide Bronze Passage was almost filled by the giant serpent chasing from behind. With a wave of Wang Yu's hand, large patches of Ice Crystal formed within the passage.
Soon, an Ice Wall formed, and with a slight consumption of True Essence, sharp Frozen Barbs grew out.
When the Bronze Serpent Puppet chased up, it directly shattered the Ice Wall with unstoppable aura, but its speed inevitably slowed down considerably.
Continuing to slide forward, it was again stuck by a large number of blackened Ice Barbs.
After breaking off the foremost section of obstacles, its forward momentum nearly came to a halt.
The darker the color of the Ice Crystal, the more True Essence Wang Yu had injected, and the harder the quality of the ice. This was a newly developed True Essence usage technique after being doubly baptized by Yellow Springs Power and the Profound Ice Bed.
It perfectly utilized the extreme cold characteristics of True Essence. When integrated into Offensive Techniques, it would further cause the power to skyrocket.
The same Mystical Arts, in his hands, were just more powerful than others. This was Equivalent To a difference in Essence, likewise a manifestation of the condensed quality of True Essence.
"Crack crack crack—"
After such obstruction, the Bronze Serpent Puppet's body emitted the sound of gears turning, a Rune appeared on the serpent's head, and the serpent's body began to rotate section by section.
Its adaptability should not be underestimated.
"Found it!"
At this moment, Long Yiran suddenly shouted, rushing over and wanting to pull Wang Yu's wrist, but remembering their previous conversation, she hesitated for a moment.
Wang Yu quickly said, "I'll follow you."
Long Yiran breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, go north for Seven Stars Steps, stop at Kai Yang, go southwest for Eight Trigrams Steps, Li two Xun five, One Yuan Zheng Shi, open!"
Wang Yu was a bit dizzy listening to her, but he could follow her movements. With a small amount of steps, there was no difficulty.
When the Bronze Serpent Puppet broke through the Black Ice Seal, the two of them happened to breakthrough the second level of the Bewildering Soul Formation, rushing into the wall and disappearing.
The Third Level was no longer an endless Bronze Passage.
This was a Bronze Plaza similar to a Secret Chamber, square on all sides, like a box. On all four Walls hung statue-like Bronze Giant Serpents.
"Here… those four won't also be Serpent Puppets, right?"
Long Yiran hurriedly manipulated the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches Compass in her hand, quickly saying, "Ten breaths! Ten breaths will be enough."
Mysterious Characters spread out, imprinting a larger compass of directions under their feet. The pointer, transformed from True Essence, rapidly rotated.
Wang Yu held his breath. The eyes of the Serpent Puppets on all four Walls had already lit up with red light, and with a rumble, they crushed over. From stillness to revive was only two breaths.
Creak creak—
Black Ice spread out centered on Wang Yu. He consumed a Supreme Grade Spirit Restoration Pill, empowering the Ice Coffin Spell with Extreme Cold True Essence. Five Black Ice Giant Walls suddenly converged.
Like a cage, protecting the two within.
Three breaths passed, and the four Bronze Serpent Puppets simultaneously crashed into it. This brute force was almost Reaching the Third Grade. Cracks immediately appeared in the Black Ice Cage.
It only lasted until the sixth breath began. Accompanied by the Serpent Puppet's tail strike, all four sides of the Ice Wall tilted inwards, and even completely collapsed.
It didn't shatter, but the stress structure seemed to have a problem.
He should have made it into a triangular slope, instead of the square shape of the Ice Coffin Spell…
At this critical moment, Wang Yu, holding the Wailing Ghost Flute, activated its Ghost Domain Power. The black ripples spread out in an instant, and hundreds of Soul Devouring Ravens transformed from Human Souls and Demon Souls.
Cawing, they flew out. The vast majority possessed the Aura of the Second Grade. Observing This, Wang Yu also injected his Divine Sense Power into the Magic Treasure.
Together with True Essence and hundreds of Soul Devouring Yin Crows, they constructed an extremely exaggerated Wailing Heart Severing Blade. If someone were watching the battle, they would probably feel sorrow welling up just by looking at it, and Couldn't Help But shed tears.
This was the special characteristic of the Heart Severing Blade, able to evoke the most painful Passing By in one's Deepest Heart. Unfortunately, the opponents were ancient puppets, so he could only use its brute force!
A terrifying Black Blade of a Thousand Meters swept out, sweeping away the front and right Bronze Serpent Puppets. Facing the Serpent Puppets attacking from the rear and left, Wang Yu revealed a grinning smile.
With a stretch of both hands, two incomparably Huge Profound Yin Hands attached to the outside of his arms, simultaneously Grabbing the Serpent Puppets' tails. A Dragon Roar shook the air!
Dragon Spine Outbreak, unexpectedly flinging them out.
"Ten breaths… arrived."
"Completed!"
Long Yiran consecutively launched several True Essence Finger Seals, striking various locations on the Ground.
Just as the Serpent Puppets pounced, a Spatial Fluctuation enveloped the two of them, their figures disappearing in an Instant.
"This is an Ancient Minor Teleportation Array. Nowadays, due to the lack of High-Grade Spirit Material of the spatial type, it is already very difficult to forge new ones. Almost all of them are still using those left over from before."
These words were spoken by Long Yiran.
If there is a Minor Teleportation Array, there is naturally a Major Teleportation Array.
Unfortunately, the Major Teleportation Arrays left over from ancient times were almost all destroyed in the Blood Demon Calamity. There were some left over from the Ancient Era, but it was very difficult to confirm their locations through Literature records.
Hearing This, Wang Yu did not answer, but instead observed the surrounding Environment. This was Still Underground, but not under that "White Snake Hollow". It should be that they had Shiftinged a considerable distance.
This Underground Space had an abundance of Vitality, and the scene of Spiritual Qi pervading the air was everywhere.
It seemed that after breaking through the Threefold Bewildering Soul Formation, they had ushered in the Harvesting Stage. The Immortal's Cave master who set up the Trial was considered lenient, not the kind who made strict demands.
Rare Spirit Herbs were all over the Ground here. Although most were poisonous, they were still Rare Spirit Material, and their prices were exorbitant.
With a rough glance, he saw three Third Grade Spirit Herbs.
What he had paid was definitely worth it.
At This Moment—
Long Yiran said, "Brother Wang, the inheritance is within the Ancient Inscriptions on Stone Wall over there. It is necessary to have my sect's 'Scripture Guide' to Comprehending it. Can we wait until I come back to divide the Spirit Herbs here?"
Wang Yu was slightly Astonished. She was even asking him this?
Did she believe that once she entered a State of Comprehending, she would be killed?
Of course, this was just a joke. The two had Signed a Contract and could not harm each other.
However, if he were to hide a few high-grade Spirit Herbs, Long Yiran might not necessarily discover them. Thinking of this, Wang Yu Couldn't Help But ask.
"How long will your Comprehending take?"
"Short, a few months, long, several years."
"Tsk—"
"Brother Wang, are you feeling troubled?"
"Naturally, waiting for you for such a long time, it would be better to divide the Spirit Herbs first, and then you can enter Secluded Cultivation to Comprehending, and I, Wang, will go to another place for Secluded Cultivation to wait for you."
Long Yiran was somewhat troubled. At first, Wang Yu did not understand what she was troubled about, but then he remembered the contents of the Contract they had Signed.
Cooperation would only Lasting until they left the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest. If she was in a State of Comprehending, and Wang Yu went out once and then came back, she would be kept in the dark, and that would be dangerous.
It seemed that she was Still wary of others, Not Really a White Flower like the Taihu Lake Noble Lady.
She wanted to delay the time for Spirit Herb distribution to ensure that Wang Yu would not leave this place casually during her Comprehending process.
Due to the Relationship of the Minor Teleportation Array, when going out, there was no need to retrace the path they came from, just use the Earth Evasion Technique to escape upwards.
"Alright."
Having understood this, Wang Yu agreed to her request, and Simultaneously stretched out a finger and said.
"I won't touch Third Grade Spirit Herbs. I will Directly pluck and consume those Second Grade Spirit Herbs to increase my Cultivation Level. You Comprehending for how long, and I will Refine for how long, how about it?"
Just now, Wang Yu had seen.
This Underground Herb Garden was Suffering the Impact of the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest. Most of the Spirit Herbs were poisonous, among which was the [Dark Sky Insect Grass] that Wang Yu had been longing for. The Number was not large, Merely five plants.
But it was a Rare Spirit Herb that could increase True Essence. Refining here for a period of time was not considered a loss.
As for refining it into Medicinal Pills before consuming them, he already had the Top-Grade Ice Spirit Pill. Adding one more type of Medicinal Pills would not allow for overlapping usage. It was better to Refine the Primal Spirit Herb Power.
He could also be unaffected.
Long Yiran had Already Reaching the Peak Foundation Establishment Stage. What was most important to her was Core Formation. Those Third-Order Spirit Items were the key, so she did not refuse.
Win-Win Situation, Achieving!
Next, Long Yiran went to the Ancient Inscriptions on Stone Wall to Comprehending. Wang Yu also plucked all five Dark Sky Insect Grass plants. This Thing was poisonous, and only he could Directly swallow and Refine it using the Flawless Jade Toad.
Otherwise, other Means would be needed to wash away the toxicity before they could be swallowed and Refined.
The First Time Attempt took nearly fifty days.
He was then Able To Smoothly digest the first Dark Sky Insect Grass, increasing his True Essence by eighty drops. The Effect was quite potent, Equivalent To several years of his arduous Cultivation!
"Indeed, I Still need to find more Fortuitous Encounter of this kind. With the Number of such Rare Spirit Material sold by the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion and Golden Abundance Pavilion, I simply Cannot buy them."
Muttering in his Deepest Heart, Wang Yu took out the Myriad Spirits Poison Marrow.
This Spirit Object could be used for One Time more, and it was just right to use it now.
Cultivation in this Underground for a period of time was not bad.
