Sitting and forgetting longevity

Chapter 1885 Spreading beans and forming an army

The jade slip was made of purple yang jade and was cleverly positioned so that it could not be seen from a standing position, but the corner where Liu Qinghuan had just been meditating was facing the gap between the shelves.

The jade slip is carved with a swallow with its wings spread, surrounded by auspicious cloud patterns, which is simple and exquisite.

Liu Qinghuan released a ray of spiritual consciousness, and in an instant, a long passage of true immortal text appeared before his eyes.

He fixed his eyes on it, examined it carefully, and felt overjoyed.

It turned out to be another one of the Thirty-Six Tiangang Immortal Techniques!

In the past, he had seen and heard that beans could be turned into soldiers and that they could fight against demons, and he was quite envious.

Now, this magical technique is right in front of him.

He couldn't help feeling regretful again.

A jade slip lost in a corner records the magic of immortals. How many treasures are hidden in the ice palace that has never been plundered?

Feeling emotional, he put away the jade slip.

The true immortal text is difficult to understand, and the immortal method has more mysteries. The method of turning beans into soldiers can only be studied in detail later.

This unexpected gain surprised Liu Qinghuan greatly, especially when he saw Huang Long struggling for a long time but still failing to take the jade box, which seemed like he was too relaxed.

Liu Qinghuan walked around the shelf and came out from the corner.

The jade box on the shelf was wrapped in layers of light, and continuously shot out fire whips, ice spikes, poisonous curses and other objects. Huang Long was so busy that he didn't even have time to look up.

He watched silently for a while until the jade box suddenly began to billow with smoke and a large number of inch-long arrows flew out of it.

Huang Long was well prepared, summoning a large green shield to block in front of him——

“Crackle, crackle, crackle~!”

Liu Qinghuan's face changed slightly as he saw that many small holes suddenly appeared on the shield, so densely packed that they looked like needles.

Huang Long was also pushed back several steps, and stopped only after leaning against the shelf behind him. Seeing that the mist arrow was empty, he quickly controlled the long sword beside him and slashed it down fiercely!

But at this moment, a burst of light suddenly appeared, and the jade box was wrapped in heavy protection again, without any trace of it being exposed.

"Fuck!" Huang Long couldn't help but curse and threw his shield away angrily.

He finally saw Liu Qinghuan standing behind the shelf, and then he stopped cursing and said with difficulty: "Daoyou Taiwei, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you!"

Liu Qinghuan walked forward and helped him pick up the shield, saying, "Don't be anxious, fellow Taoist. Just take your time."

Huang Long wiped his face and looked a little depressed.

"There is more than one layer of protective spell on this box. When you remove one layer, there is another layer. The layers are connected and change very quickly. They are also connected to the formation of the entire Ice Palace..."

"Oh?" Liu Qinghuan was very surprised: "Is it really like this?"

Huang Long said angrily: "Every time I solved the fourth level, I failed because of lack of time. In the blink of an eye, the curse on the box was restored to its original state. It makes me so angry!"

Liu Qinghuan instead became somewhat interested: "So, we must remove all protections within a certain period of time?"

"Yes!" Huang Long said in annoyance, "Two quarters of an hour, only two quarters of an hour!"

"How many layers of protection are there?"

"Eight or nine floors."

“That’s quite difficult…”

Liu Qinghuan stroked his chin and said thoughtfully: "This is weird. What kind of treasure is worthy of such strict protection?"

Huang Long hesitated and said, "I doubt that there is any treasure in this box!"

Liu Qinghuan was puzzled: "What is that?"

Huang Long was busy for quite some time and finally gained something.

"The protection on this jade box is indeed very powerful. Although I haven't unlocked it yet, I will definitely be able to unlock it as long as you give me some time!"

Liu Qinghuan expressed his doubts but did not show it on his face.

Huang Long continued, "Besides, there are always people better than me. Could it be that they can't unlock it? Therefore, it is very unusual that this jade box has been placed on the shelf." "That makes sense!" Liu Qinghuan nodded and said, "So what do you think is inside?"

"Then we have to open it to find out." Huang Long spread his hands and said, "In order to save time, Taoist Taiwei, are you willing to work with me to break the curse?"

"Sure!" Liu Qinghuan said.

Huang Long rubbed his hands happily: "Okay! Then let me tell you, the first four lines of defense..."

As Liu Qinghuan listened, he walked closer and carefully examined the jade box, even checking the shelf on which it was placed.

The jade box was completely fixed on the stand, and the back half was even embedded in the wall.

Liu Qinghuan thought for a moment and said, "Actually, there's no need to go through so much trouble. I have a way that may solve it all at once."

"What?" Huang Long was stunned.

Liu Qinghuan took out the spirit beast bag and said to him, "You'd better retreat outside the door. My spirit insects are quite aggressive and not very obedient. They may attack you."

Huang Long refused to leave: "How is it possible? Daoist Taiwei, don't joke..."

The next moment, when he saw the space-eating worm flying out, he was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stepped back.

Fortunately, he retreated quickly, and the sky-eating worm flew directly towards him at the first opportunity!

Liu Qinghuan's face darkened, a green light flashed between his eyebrows, and his spiritual thoughts condensed into a whip and flew into the spirit beast bag.

"Snapped!"

The Insect King let out a shrill hiss, and the Sky-Eating Insects immediately obeyed, flying back, shrinking their bodies, and pounced on the jade box.

At the same time, fire whips and ice spikes burst out, but no matter what kind of attack it was, it was swallowed up by the swarm of insects.

Liu Qinghuan said coldly to the Insect King: [If you can’t break the protection on the jade box in a quarter of an hour, you will give me ten more whips!]

After saying that, he also retreated to the door and began to count the time.

"Daoyou Taiwei." Huang Long came over and said, "I didn't expect that you could actually subdue the Sky Devourer!"

Liu Qinghuan's face didn't look good, but he didn't say much, and said: "Where's your Miguel? Let it come out and show you the way."

Huang Long was a little puzzled, but he still called out Mi Gu and instructed, "Show us another way, not the previous one."

Mi Gu turned around and raised his little hand to point to the side hall which was crowded with space-eating insects.

"Ah, but there is no door in the side hall that leads to other places?"

He patted Mi Gu's head, but the little guy stubbornly refused to change direction.

Liu Qinghuan said: "It seems that my guess is correct, there may be a passage in the jade box."

Huang Long thought about it and clapped his hands: "It's really possible!"

Just as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang from inside, and the swarm of insects broke through the protection of the jade box within a quarter of an hour.

"So fast!" Huang Long exclaimed, "Really! Suddenly I feel a little stupid for being busy for two hours!"

Liu Qinghuan said: "Fellow Daoist, you are too modest. I only discovered the abnormal spatial fluctuations when you were cracking the jade box."

He walked in, threw the shattered space-eating insects back into the spirit beast bag one by one, and then gently opened the lid of the jade box!

Looking inside, I saw a staircase leading down.

"There really is a way!" Huang Long said happily, and flew into the box in a flash. His body became only a few inches tall.

"Fellow Daoist Taiwei, come in!"

Liu Qinghuan landed beside him and looked down, but could only see endless stairs.

There are still ice walls on both sides, but there are many more dark shadows and it is difficult to see what they are.

Liu Qinghuan looked a little stern and warned, "Be careful!"
