Hu Zhenren's eyes were about to burst as he stared at the young man with a calm face a few feet behind him.
Whoosh!
The blood-stained shadowless needle light swept out a sharp arc in the air.
Finally, it turned into a needle-shaped talisman and returned to Lu Changan's palm hidden in his sleeve robe.
"The thief... is insidious..."
Mr. Hu's shocked face was stained by the blood spattered from his chest, and he stared at the attacker behind him with resentment.
It was difficult to say a few words, but his heart was already bursting, his throat was blocked, and he kept coughing up blood.
"Master Hu!"
Several exclamations of surprise were heard before the others reacted.
A "plop" sound.
Hu Zhenren fell to the ground, the vitality in his body plummeted, and he fell to the bottom of the valley in an instant, dying.
Lu Changan calmly put away the needle-shaped talisman.
To attack and kill Master Hu, his truly powerful talisman trump card was not used.
This needle-shaped talisman was the enemy-defending talisman given by Master Bai Ling when Fu Xuemei formed the elixir.
This talisman poses little threat to the real person False Dan in a frontal attack, but it is good at concealing sneak attacks and makes little movement.
Hu Zhenren had just spied on the opportunity of a heavy treasure, escaped from death, and lost the key token. His mood fluctuated greatly, and his attention was completely involved.
Lu Changan attacked from behind and killed him with one blow.
"Lu Changan! How dare you assassinate Master Hu?"
Master Tan, who had arrived in front of the Hexagonal Palace, turned back in shock, was startled for a moment, and scolded with an angry look on his face.
Master Tan was not as angry as he imagined, but more surprised and surprised.
"Hu Zhenren did not keep his promise. Not only did he fail to compensate Mr. Lu for the loss of his puppet, he also stole the demon elixir obtained from his spiritual pet."
Lu Changan had no expression on his face and said matter-of-factly:
"That's why I killed him!"
After hearing this, all the cultivators present were stunned. They felt that it was reasonable and well-founded, but they had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
When Lu Changan said these words, there was no anger at all, and he was really a little careless.
puff!
Hu Zhenren on the ground vomited a mouthful of blood and died, leaving a dead expression on his face.
Squeak!
The rock rat flew over, took off Mr. Hu's storage bag, and quickly turned back.
Master Tan reacted with a gloomy look on his face and murderous intent in his eyes.
Lu Changan was closest to Master Hu. As a planner, he naturally had the opportunity to reap the fruits of victory.
"Friend Lu Dao."
Master Shixianzi jumped up to Lu Changan's side, guarding against Master Tan and his party.
After a brief shock, Shi Xianzi looked at the very familiar man in front of her, and her heart could not calm down for a long time.
The low-key monk who never fought or fought, raising turtles and growing grass, attacked and killed a fake elixir master in one move.
This really broke the conventional understanding of him.
…
Why did Lu Changan kill Zhenren Hu?
As the only formation master left on the field, Shi Xianzi quickly understood his intention.
The ancient ruins have been conquered to this point, and all the difficulties have been solved one by one. As a third-order formation master, Hu Zhenren has made full use of his resources.
There may still be some minor problems, including returning to the entrance of the ruins along the same route.
However, as a quasi-third-level formation master, Shi Xianzi's formation attainments are not much different from those of Hu Zhenren. The main reason is the difference in cultivation level.
After the death of Master Hu, Shi Manrong's status was raised, and he joined forces with Lu Changan to take more initiative.
In fact, Lu Changan killed Master Hu because he was afraid of the third-level formation mage.
Third-level formation masters use the geographical environment to set up formations that pose greater threats and variables.
Once Hu Zhenren died, the remaining Tan Zhenren were simply individually strong.
Lu Changan was not so afraid.
"Lu Chang'an, Mr. Hu is Tan's friend. No matter what your reasons are for killing him, Tan can't turn a blind eye."
Master Tan couldn't find the token for the time being, so he turned back and approached Lu Changan step by step, with a cold look on his face.
"What do Master Tan want?"
Lu Changan thought to himself, when he didn't take Mr. Hu's storage bag before, he never saw you being so aggressive.
"Insidious junior! I will die to apologize!"
Master Tan spoke every word, and the elixir power in his body exploded, emitting powerful spiritual pressure that was beyond ordinary fake elixir monks.
He opened his mouth and spit out a black ruler, and the precious light bloomed.
boom!
The magical ruler rose more than ten feet in the storm, condensed a majestic deep blue brilliance, and hit Lu Changan with a powerful blow like a mountain collapsing and the earth split apart.
The expressions of all the cultivators present changed, Master Tan was really serious about this.
Not just for Mr. Hu’s storage bag.
Lu Changan plotted to kill a fake Dan Master behind his back. How could Master Tan tolerate such a threat and be around him at any time?
At the same time that Master Tan took action.
Lu Changan also moved, and the evergreen magic power in his body surged like a tidal wave, and he produced a prototype of a radiating magic weapon.
It was a simple scimitar with flowing black gold, exuding a spiritual wave of magic weapon level.
With the injection of evergreen mana, it inspires.
The simple scimitar roared with vigor, turning into a gold-plated half-moon-shaped black giant sword.
Dang! Peng!
The half-moon gold-plated black knife struck the magic ruler head-on, and the powerful wind and waves impacted for miles around.
In less than a breath, the light of the black giant sword suddenly dimmed, turning into a simple scimitar and falling downwards.
The dark blue aura on the magic ruler actually dimmed by half and shrunk a lot.
"This kind of power?"
Master Tan was secretly surprised. He did not expect that the prototype of Lu Changan's magic weapon was so powerful that it could rival the ordinary blow of Master Fake Dan's magic weapon.
Lu Changan used the prototype of the magic weapon normally, but it was not so powerful.
However, the prototype of the scimitar magic weapon has been tempered and cultivated by him for too long, and its spirituality is not inferior to the real magic weapon.
This is the first time to "open up the front", and with more accumulation, the power of the explosion will be stronger.
boom!
The magic ruler, which had shrunk by half, was blocked by a tortoise puppet about ten feet tall, offsetting the remaining power.
The turtle puppet remained motionless, with light patterns on its surface and no damage.
"A quasi-third-level puppet? No, it just has a quasi-third-level defense..."
Master Tan frowned, feeling troubled.
Beside Lu Changan, Shi Xianzi also presented a prototype of a golden ring-shaped magic weapon. They were originally planning to defend the magic weapon ruler together, but it was not used.
"What are you guys doing standing around here?"
Master Tan activated the magic ruler again and glanced coldly at the three foundation-building men who were confused.
"Master Tan, the restrictions on the two foundation-building Taoist friends seem to have been cast by Master Hu. Now that Master Hu is not here, they naturally have the right to choose their own destiny."
Lu Changan stood behind the turtle puppet and chuckled.
Of the three foundation-building monks left on the field, only Miss Wei was not banned.
The remaining youth with a high nose and the old man in his 60s were restrained by Master Hu, because third-level formation masters are often good at restraints and are more reliable.
Master Tan cannot directly control their lives and deaths.
When Lu Changan and Tan Zhenren were fighting, Miss Wei quietly stepped back some distance.
The other two people hesitated when they saw this, but were shocked when they saw Lu Changan blocking the blow of False Dan Zhenren head-on.
Depending on the situation, Lu Changan and Shi Xianzi join forces to fight Master Tan.
In this way, there is no need for them to surrender to Master Tan and work for him.
…
"Master Tan, if you kill Daoist Lu and his two companions, can you be sure of entering the secret vault space where the formation gate is hidden? Can you ensure that you are safe and sound on the way back?"
Miss Wei's voice was as cool as night, and she spoke at the right time.
"Miss Wei is right."
Master Tan's face was soothing, he was more polite to the girl Wei, and he walked down the steps.
The strength shown by Lu Changan and Shi Xianzi is enough to compete with the fake Dan real person, and it is no longer difficult to deal with them.
As the only formation master, Shi Xianzi plays an irreplaceable role.
"Lu Xiaothief, let's put an end to the grudges between you and me before we leave the ruins!"
Master Tan put away his magic ruler and said a harsh word.
Lu Changan smiled and put away the prototype of the magic weapon and the turtle puppet.
Master Tan's face was dull, and he went to the Hexagonal Palace Building again, taking Miss Wei with him to look for the token that Master Hu had lost before.
Lu Changan was not interested in participating.
When Hu Zhenren broke the formation, Lu Changan merged with the Jiuyin Monument, and his powerful spiritual consciousness observed the relevant details.
That token was actually rolled into an independent treasure house space by the power of the formation.
Master Tan wanted to save people at that time, and his spiritual consciousness was not as good as that of Lu Changan who had integrated the Nine Seal Monument, so he did not notice this detail.
"Fairy Master, have you seen the method to break open the hidden gate of the seventh formation?"
Lu Changan set up the next layer of soundproof cover and communicated with Shi Manrong through sound transmission.
"I have witnessed twice that my formation skills are not what they used to be, and it is no longer difficult to break through the formation gate. Moreover, the formation gate has just been broken through, and it is currently in a loose state, and the loopholes are more obvious."
Shi Manrong smiled gently, showing some confidence.
"How to deal with the killing trap hidden behind the gate of the seventh formation?"
"I have already seen the clues. The token is just a token for entering the treasure house. Identity must be verified before you can enter safely. Just having the token and not matching the identity will attract the attack of the trap and killing array."
"Fortunately, the ancient formation is incomplete and has many loopholes. At that time, we only need to destroy the connected formation nodes in advance and break the induction restriction of the trap killing formation."
"I see."
Lu Changan understood the general principle.
He also regretted, "It's a pity that Master Hu's forbidden-breaking pearl was destroyed in the killing array."
"The forbidden-breaking bead has been almost consumed. Now that the formation gate is loose, there is a quasi-third-level forbidden-breaking talisman, plus a fake pill-level blow, which is enough."
Shi Manrong was calm and composed.
"It's not difficult to break the formation, but where can I find a token token now?"
Lu Changan thought.
As a token token, Master Hu used one, and Master Qi used one decades ago.
In fact, there are still some areas in the ancient ruins that have not been explored. As long as you are willing to spend time and take certain risks, it is possible to find another one.
Shi Manrong glanced at Master Tan in the distance.
The red lips pursed, and the delicate fragrance surged into Lu Changan's ears.
"You...you have?"
Lu Changan was overjoyed. This person he once slept with actually hid something.
Shi Manrong has a token, which was obtained by exploring the periphery of the ruins after the death of Master Qi.
"Friend Lu Dao, please be prepared later. I will break through the formation and enter the treasure house space. You will be responsible for the response. If successful, we will divide the treasure obtained 50/50, okay?"
"50/50? No problem."
Lu Changan nodded without thinking, with a hint of respect in his heart.
Breaking the formation and entering the treasure house involves unknown risks.
The opportunity of this ruins was provided by Shi Manrong. She wanted to break the formation and take risks to get the treasure.
The split is 50/50, this is because Lu Changan kills Master Hu and shows his strength in the field.
"Before breaking the formation to get the treasure, Lu wanted to go to a place first."
Lu Changan thought for a while and looked at the area where he passed through the bridge before.
At this time, in the ruins, no one can restrict the two people's free movement.
…
After a while.
Inside the ruins, on the top floor of an attic.
"The restrictions set up in this room are connected to the ancient remnants of the formation. Even after a long period of time, they are still powerful. It is difficult for the true elixir monks to conquer, and it may lead to the risk of backlash."
Shixianzi looked at the room in front of her and realized the restrictions on the first floor that were integrated with the room.
"You mean, it can't be broken?"
Previously, when passing by here, Lu Changan noticed an abnormality and sent two puppets to test it, but they were crushed to pieces by the invisible forbidden power.
"No, if there is a third-level forbidden talisman, I can definitely break it. Under the erosion of the years, this restriction has been loosened a lot, and there are obvious weak points."
"Third level forbidden talisman?"
Lu Changan turned his palm and took out a forbidden talisman that was slightly larger than an ordinary talisman.
The power of this forbidden talisman is slightly higher than the third-level low-grade one.
Shi Xianzi took the "Third Level Forbidden Breaking Talisman" and felt the terrifying power contained in it. She glanced at Lu Changan and didn't ask any questions.
After observing for a long time, Master Shixianzi retreated some distance and played the "Third Level Forbidden Breaking Talisman".
Poof!
A twisted black and white light beam, dragging the destructive arc crystal light, hit the surface of the house, stirring up a layer of bright and dark blue and white light.
Lu Changan took out the turtle puppet and held it in front of him, secretly holding a stack of talismans in his sleeves.
"It's done."
A large hole was torn open in the blue-white light on the surface of the house, and the supply of the ancient remnant formation was temporarily interrupted.
Shi Xianzi breathed a sigh of relief and asked Lu Changan to move faster.
Lu Changan did not enter the room, but sent puppets and rock rats to search and take away all the items that could be taken away.
There was no smell of life in the room, and there were not many items.
After a few dozen breaths, the room's restrictions began to be restored.
The rock rats and golems retreated.
Lu Changan sorted out the items in front of him and picked out a jade tube and a dark gold token.
This token is similar to the one Hu Zhenren used before, but the texture is better.
"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Lu."
Shi Xianzi said happily.
Lu Changan put away the dark gold token and looked at the jade tube, showing surprise.
Then, he handed the jade tube to Shi Xianzi.
"The ancient sect's 'Tinghai Pavilion'? The pavilion where this room is located was once the place where True Lord Yuanying sat in command?"
Shi Manrong said in surprise.
No wonder the restrictions in this room are so strong. When the two fake elixir masters passed by before, they didn't dare to try it easily and ignored it for the time being.
That jade tube is similar to a log, recording the basic conditions of this ancient ruins during a certain period of time.
Although there was no confidential information, from some of the details recorded in it, the two of them learned more about the ancient ruins and even the hexagonal palace building.
…
On the way back to the Hexagonal Palace Building.
Lu Changan discovered that Master Tan and Miss Wei were all looking for something in the nearby ruins.
Look for tokens, or try other opportunities.
"Little friend Lu, you seemed to have broken the restriction just now. Have you found any new tokens?"
Master Tan leaped over and asked tentatively.
"I found it. I'm going to let Shi Xianzi use the token to break the formation and get the treasure."
Lu Changan didn't hide anything.
"Oh? Congratulations, do you need Tan's help?"
Master Tan's eyes flashed slightly and he suggested.
"With Master Tan's help, it will be safer to break the formation and retrieve the treasure."
Lu Changan smiled.
Master Tan was stunned for a moment, he did not expect that Lu Changan would accept his kindness so easily.
Then, following the instructions of Master Shixianzi, he took out the magic ruler, and with surging elixir power, he aimed it at a certain void above the gold and bronze gate.
boom!
The formation above the Hexagonal Palace trembled with light, opening a hole that was almost the same as before.
"Friend Lu Dao, be careful of Master Tan."
Fairy Shi took out a bronze token and sent a message to Lu Changan before leaving.
Whoosh!
She stepped on the light and flew towards the large hole where the hidden formation door was broken.
At the other end of the cave, there is a glimpse of an alien space.
Master Shixianzi held the token tightly, closed her eyes, aimed at the top of her head, and played a quasi-third-level forbidden talisman.
Puff! Puff!
The blue-white electric light collided with the forbidden light and annihilated each other.
The red shimmering token in Shixianzi's hand quickly returned to normal.
The forbidden induction of the killing array was successfully cut off!
Fairy Master passed through the large hole in the formation safely and was immediately shrouded in a white glow. Her figure blurred and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Lu Changan sensed that Fairy Shi had stepped into another dimension and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Just now, he was prepared for Master Tan to intervene or seize the token, although the possibility was not high.
As a genius formation master, Shi Xianzi has learned from Master Hu's mistakes and has a higher success rate in breaking formations to retrieve treasures than others.
After Fairy Shi entered, the formation hole did not recover immediately, and the healing speed was slower than the last time.
Master Tan and Lu Changan faced each other from a distance.
Fairy Shi has entered the treasure house space. If you want to kill Lu Changan, this is the best opportunity!
Master Tan's eyes were sharp, and the blue glow of the elixir on his body was like a gust of wind, flying dozens of feet.
"No...please spare my life!"
Ten breaths later, the old man in his sixties who was hiding in the corner of the building and in the middle stage of foundation building was picked up by Master Tan like a chicken.
"This is an opportunity given to you by this real person!"
Master Tan refused to say anything and threw the old man in his sixties directly into the formation hole.
The sixty-year-old old man's mana was blocked, his body was out of control, his eyes were closed, and he passively passed through the formation hole.
An unexpected scene happened.
Whoosh!
A white ray of light enveloped the old man in his sixties, and his figure disappeared in a flash, and unexpectedly entered the hidden treasure house space.
"Haha! Is there something wrong with the ancient remnant formation?"
Master Tan was shocked, then overjoyed and flew towards the large hole in the formation gate that had not yet healed.
He was not the only one who made this move, Miss Wei and the young man with a high nose also flew towards the big hole in surprise.
"Hey, Mr. Tan, please calm down a little bit."
A dull and frightening strong wind, like a wild beast trampling the mountains, blocked Master Tan's path.
The strong wind rushed towards me, making Tan Zhenren's protective shield rattle.
