Chapter 155 Why?
"Yi Ru, we are all here, is it time to reveal some news?"
Tan Sun looked around and asked.
Chen Yiru nodded slightly and said softly: "There is a storage stronghold of the Longxia Sect hidden in Rhinoceros Island. However, there is a third-level formation guarding the outside world, and I cannot solve it with my own strength."
"Longxia Sect, the former Yuan Dan giant?"
Zhong Hongyan's pupils shrank and she said in surprise.
"But thousands of years have passed, and the external formation has not lost its power. Is it possible that there are still surviving monks inside who are presiding over the operation of the formation?"
Tan Sun frowned and said suspiciously.
Chen Ping was also confused about this, and all three of them looked at Chen Yiru.
As we all know, maintaining the normal operation of a formation requires a large amount of spiritual stones.
And the price of continuously activating the third-level formation for thousands of years is a price that even the Jindan Sect may not be able to bear.
"There must not be any monks guarding the stronghold. Otherwise, I have forced my way in several times and there was a lot of noise. If there were really anyone alive, they would have come out to stop me long ago!"
Chen Yiru said categorically.
"Furthermore, it is a level three puppet array. It has no power in itself and only maintains the most basic defensive shield."
"Puppet array!"
After listening to her explanation, Tan Sun, Zhong Hongyan and Chen Ping couldn't help but suddenly realized.
In the formation system, the puppet formation is a special existence.
Use puppets to replace the formation flags and arrange them in a specific cycle. Each puppet is like an attack that the formation can send out.
The amount of spirit stones consumed by the puppet array depends entirely on the level of the puppet.
Generally speaking, second- and third-level puppets must be controlled by high-quality spiritual stones, and fourth- and fifth-level puppets must be inlaid with high-quality spiritual stones.
"Yi Ru, how many puppets are functioning normally in that formation?"
Tan Sun asked with a cautious expression.
"Four."
Chen Yiru paused and said calmly: "They are just second-level puppets. They are two silver wolves and two black tigers. Among them, the silver wolf puppets are stronger. Daoyou Tan and I will deal with them. The remaining two are left to Ping'er and Daoyou Zhong.
.”
Tan Sun flicked the fly whisk, but hesitated for a few breaths, and said in a strange tone: "Longxia Sect's storage stronghold must have a rich collection. Why don't you call a few more foundation-building monks from your clan? Only four heads and two.
The level puppets can be easily solved with the strength of the Chen family."
"Hehe, using the power of fellow monks to break through the formation, wouldn't it mean that the family would get the lion's share in the end? I don't think I have reached that level of selflessness."
Chen Yiru's eyes were clear and he spoke very calmly.
"Haha, you are still as smart as ever."
Tan Sun looked convinced, as if he believed her words.
"I won't wait any longer and go directly to that place!"
Zhong Hongyan grabbed the conversation and said enthusiastically.
"Not urgent."
Chen Yiru said leisurely: "Before we go, we should explain the distribution of the treasures first. Since I discovered the location, I, Heping'er, will share 70% of the proceeds from this trip, and you and your wife will get 30%."
"no problem."
Tan Sun and Zhong Hongyan looked at each other and smiled, and both nodded in agreement.
…
Three hours later, Chen Yiru, Chen Ping and others were galloping in a remote mountain forest somewhere on Rhinoceros Island.
All four of them used concealment techniques to suppress their breath in the Qi training realm.
There are many monks on Rhinoceros Island, and it is really eye-catching for a few of them to escape and fly together.
According to Chen Yiru, after leaving this forest, we almost arrived at the stronghold.
"Is fellow Taoist Chen Ping really a newly promoted foundation-building monk?"
Tan Sun squinted his eyes and asked curiously.
Along the way, he was almost using 80% of his speed, and this kid could barely follow him.
It really surprised him.
"I'm good at body movements. After all, saving your life is important!"
Chen Ping scratched his head and said shyly.
"Fellow Taoist Chen Ping, you are humble. I am in the early stage of foundation building just like you, but I still have to rely on my husband to help me, otherwise I would have been far away from you."
Zhong Hongyan covered her mouth and smiled, slightly mocking herself.
"Yan'er, you're out again."
Tan Sun lowered his head and kissed the Taoist companion's hand, pretending to be unhappy.
"hey-hey."
Seeing this scene, Chen Ping felt a chill in his heart.
Along the way, the two held hands and never let go for a moment. Occasionally they kissed each other as if no one was watching, and the man even patted the woman's butt gently, which opened his eyes.
Chen Yiru on the side turned a blind eye, presumably because she was used to their behavior.
Of course, while admiring the affection between the two, Chen Ping also quietly sensed their true cultivation.
What Chen Yiru said is true, Tan Sun is in the middle stage of foundation building, and Zhong Hongyan is in the early stage of foundation building.
"Um?"
While walking, Chen Ping's heart suddenly tightened, and then he immediately sank into consciousness and communicated with the purple light needle, but there was no strange color on his face.
"After passing the crack in the sky, we are almost there."
Stopping, Chen Yiruyuan pointed forward and said.
The so-called sky gap is actually the gap between two large cliffs.
The two walls are facing each other, and when viewed through the gap, the sky is like a blue ribbon, which is only five feet wide at its widest point.
"Let's go."
Tan Sun took the lead and walked in sideways, relying on his cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building.
Then, Chen Yiru and Zhong Hongyan filed in, and Chen Ping ended up last, intentionally or unintentionally.
Although the road under your feet is bumpy and undulating, it is not difficult for the foundation-building monks.
When we reached the depths, the mountain walls on both sides became closer and closer. Looking up, we saw an islet split open on the top of the rock, as if it had been split open by a sharp axe. The distance was less than two feet apart, and a ray of skylight leaked from it, like a red sky across the sky.
The extremely cold breeze blows from the cracks in the rocks, cooling the skin.
"Do you two fellow Taoists know that my Chen family has established a new worship hall and has improved the treatment of guest guests?"
Chen Ping walked behind and said suddenly.
Along the way, he rarely spoke, and even when he did speak, he acted very young. Such a serious and even slightly cold tone could not help but surprise Mr. and Mrs. Tan and Sun.
"I heard someone say that."
Tan Sun pondered for a moment and then answered.
"If these two Taoist friends join my Chen family, they will immediately be granted the status of first-class guest ministers with an annual salary of two thousand."
Chen Ping grinned and said eagerly.
"this……"
Tan Sun frowned and politely declined: "I'm sorry, Yan'er and I are used to being free and don't want to be bound by rules."
"Yes, we appreciate Fellow Taoist Chen Ping's kindness."
Zhong Hongyan held the Taoist monk's hand tightly and apologized.
"Ping'er, you should give up this idea."
At this time, Chen Yiru sent a message and said: "I have tried to win over you many times over the years, but they have never agreed."
"Besides, treasure hunting is the most important thing right now, so don't say anything else to avoid upsetting them."
"oh."
Chen Ping dealt with it, glanced at the top of the rock wall a few times with his peripheral vision, and said quietly: "Since you have chosen to be independent cultivators, you should live in peace and contentment. This time, you will bury your bones."
In this thin sky, why bother!"
