I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

Shen Nian's eyes were filled with horror.

I already defeated that fourth-grade beast, so how did I level up again?

Does this mean that there is no end to the creation of formations?

Only a fourth-rank expert can break the formation!

Shen Nian was unwilling, but no matter how unwilling he was.

They had no choice but to give up.

Continuing down this path will only lead to certain death.

Moreover, given their current condition, they are no longer capable of attempting to pass the level again.

Today is also the last day of the blessed land's opening.

If we don't go out now, we might never have another chance to go out.

"But this is still good news."

"Since only a fourth-grade expert can break the formation."

"Once it opens next year, we'll have the sect leader make the trip himself. He'll definitely be able to take away a massive amount of resources."

Shen Nian sighed deeply and said.

This time, entering the blessed land yielded absolutely nothing.

I finally obtained this intelligence, but I still failed.

They did not bring the resources back.

"Well, it's safe here. We'll come earlier next year. We underestimated this formation."

Gu Shunchang then added.

Liu Zhanqing frowned.

He was thinking of sending a few of the deacons up for another try.

But now it seems that it's impossible to put together anymore, and there's no point in doing so.

Although Liu Zhanqing didn't like others wasting his time.

However, in certain situations, they still know how to behave appropriately.

"Gentlemen, there is no need to blame yourselves. I will personally report this matter to my father. You have all done your best."

Liu Zhanqing said.

Hearing Liu Zhanqing's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They could say they were just waiting for Liu Zhanqing to say that.

"Thank you, Young Sect Master..."

"Thank you, Young Sect Master..."

After resting for a while, the three headed out of the cave.

There was no sound from within the ruins.

Lu Xuan heard that there was no more movement upstairs.

He peeked out from the crack in the rock.

After realizing that everyone had left, he broke through the crack in the rock and walked out.

"These people are really something."

"A complete waste of my precious youth."

Lu Xuan cursed under his breath.

Of course, it wasn't too wasteful; Lu Xuan hadn't been idle at all.

After stepping out of the cave.

Lu Xuan walked straight toward the array stone wall.

The same petrifying monster appeared.

However, it is much easier than the following.

The lower half of the stone wall requires a starting strength of at least the high-level third rank.

Even Lu Xuan had to try several times and mentally deduce the route before he finally found the direction.

Facing the weakened version of the formation, Lu Xuan was quite adept at it and stepped forward to break the Heaven, Earth and Man Three Talents Formation.

at last.

The stone wall of the array in front of them was broken.

Lu Xuan quickly located the array plate on the stone wall.

It is a brick embedded in the ground.

They dug out the bricks and stones.

The dust on the bricks and stones was blown away, revealing a dark, mysterious material.

There are also many patterns carved on this brick.

That is exactly what the stone wall of the formation looks like.

"This is the original battle formation diagram."

"Huh? This magical artifact can actually be used for storage?"

Lu Xuan looked at the brick in his hand, his old face full of surprise.

They quickly realized it.

The space inside is used to store the two array stone walls.

The person who set up the formation must have put in a tremendous amount of effort to carve these strange beasts.

Lu Xuan was initially disappointed that he couldn't take the two array stone walls with him, but he never expected that the array plate itself came with space.

Lu Xuan immediately had a thought.

He collected both array stone walls into the brick-like array plate in his hand.

And what is stored behind this formation.

There were some books on formations and some ordinary spirit stones.

There were also thousands of spirit stones piled up on the ground.

Clearly, the real treasure is on the underground level.

However, these people from the Qinghe Sword Sect failed to comprehend the profound mystery of the formation. Even if ten fourth-rank experts came, they might not be able to forcibly break the formation.

"Another source of spirit stones."

"This spirit stone is worth a million taels of silver."

By now, Lu Xuan could no longer estimate the value of the items in his possession.

But at least ten million taels of silver were lost.

Reaching this size is already an extremely exaggerated level.

It should be noted that Wuling County's annual tax revenue was only around 100,000 taels of silver.

Lu Xuan didn't know about other places either.

However, taxes are one thing, and corruption is another.

The amount of money that ended up in Yang Qinghou's hands was probably quite substantial.

Of course, for Lu Xuan, the most important thing was not these spirit stones or spirit fruits.

Instead, they are stone tablets for cultivation techniques and stone tablets for formations.

Who on earth left these things here?

In Lu Xuan's view, the other party seemed to treat these things as toys, casually placing them here.

Perhaps, once Lu Xuan masters the Heaven-Crossing True Technique, he will be able to obtain even more clues to search for an even larger legacy.

"If this set of formation stone tablets is properly arranged, its maximum strength should be able to withstand a fifth-grade expert."

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

A fifth-rank expert is known as a titled Martial King.

There were only a handful of such people in the entire Xuanwu Dynasty.

Lu Xuan didn't think these terrifying guys were coming back to his home as guests.

of course.

Lu Xuan was also well aware of the ways this world operated.

Sometimes, the number of powerful figures on the surface is just a bunch of weaklings on the surface, while the real powerhouses are hidden in the background and won't make a move until the crucial moment.

When the time comes to actually take action, it will be on an earth-shattering scale.

Of course, these things are none of his concern for the time being.

He is now living a peaceful and quiet life in his own Wuling County.

After returning, I finally no longer had to be timid and hesitant.

There was also a strong sense of confidence in Lu Xuan's eyes.

After stepping out of the ruins.

It was already close to afternoon.

Lu Xuan stretched and took a breath of the fresh air outside the cave.

They immediately prepared to return.

At this moment, Lu Xuan also saw that a thick layer of poisonous aura was hanging above his head.

It's like a thick, all-encompassing blanket.

It is slowly sinking.

When night falls, the entire forest area will be covered by this poisonous barrier.

"So this is how the poisonous barrier falls."

"That's really special."

It's like covering the entire mountain range with a blanket.

Once they have fully landed, they will be completely trapped in this maze, with no chance of escape.

However, based on his visual estimation, Lu Xuan estimated that it would take nearly three hours for the lander to fully land.

But before leaving, there are clearly some minor issues that need to be resolved.

Lu Xuan's lips curled up slightly.

I never imagined he would have such a day.

"Heh, the dignified black-clad steward of the Qinghe Sword Sect actually ambushed an old man in his seventies here."

"I, this old man, am truly blessed."

Lu Xuan chuckled softly.

He then calmly turned around.

But then he saw Shen Nian and the others, who should have left long ago, standing behind him, staring at him with a cold, scrutinizing gaze.

"You're quite capable, managing to hide in there for so long."

Shen Nian sneered.

He then exchanged glances with the people around him.

After all, the situation before them was a pleasant surprise.

In fact, they did not find any trace of Lu Xuan.

But Shen Nian always felt that there was someone else lurking in the shadows, though he wasn't sure, so he continued to lie in ambush there.

After all, when Shen Nian obtained the map, it wasn't a first-hand resource.

Many people passed through it.

So there must be other people who know.

But no one has shown up yet, which is the strange thing.

Therefore, Shen Nian also thought to himself that there must be other people nearby.

Thinking that I still had some time, I decided to wait here.

Sure enough, Lu Xuan finally arrived.

"He's just an ordinary old man; he's probably just hiding inside."

Liu Zhanqing looked at Lu Xuan.

I wasted a lot of time here again.

At this moment, Yuan Fei rushed into the ruins cave and then hurriedly ran out again.

"The things... everything has been taken!"

"Don't let that old man get away!"

Yuan Fei shouted, his face showing utter shock.

After all, these were things that they couldn't take even after risking their lives.

It only took a short while, and this old man got rid of it.

"really!"

"This is absolutely divine intervention!"

Shen Nian immediately threw his head back and burst into laughter.

Although he didn't know how Lu Xuan obtained the contents, it didn't matter.

Because everything will belong to them.

In the end, he should thank this old man.

Gu Shunchang and Liu Zhanqing both wore smiles.

"It's like searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly."

Gu Shunchang couldn't help but laugh.

"Alright, we don't have much time left."

"Old man, hand over everything. These things don't belong to you. Keeping them will only lead to your death."

"I can personally pay you ten thousand taels of silver as a reward; I hope you won't put me in a difficult position."

Shen Nian gave a faint smile.

He then took out ten thousand taels of silver notes from his pocket.

He handed it over in Lu Xuan's direction.

Seeing this, Lu Xuan shook his head slightly.

"Heh, trying to steal me?"

"It seems you guys aren't very smart either."

"If I were you, I would think about it carefully."

"I broke the formation that none of you could break... What right do you have to steal it from me?"

Lu Xuan chuckled, and the next moment he raised his hand and summoned the Sun-Breaking Sword.

When Shen Nian and the others saw that Lu Xuan actually wanted to fight them, their eyes immediately showed disdain.

"Very well, you've chosen the fastest way to die."

next moment.

The three of them immediately unleashed their cultivation power.

Although they had just experienced a major battle, the three of them had already recovered 70% of their cultivation after a period of time.

the most important is.

They lacked confidence in facing the formation, but were full of confidence when facing Lu Xuan.

Because the other party is a human being.

Everyone dies.
