Lu Ping tried his best to use the Three Pure Eyes, but he could only see a dim light spot on the protective wall of the formation. Obviously, it was an unimportant node.
Lu Ping threw a three-colored restriction breaking talisman on it. The three-colored light swept over the protective wall of the formation, and the whole protective wall suddenly burst into a layer of light, which seemed to be fighting against the three-colored light, or being sucked out of the protective wall by the light of the talisman.
Lu Ping's eyes were like cyan abysses, but he only saw a dim node on the protective wall of the formation, in addition to the previous light spot node.
The second one was found, but there were only two!
"Senior, the power of the formation is obviously beyond my estimation!"
Deng Ming touched his bald head, and seemed to be very ashamed of what he had calculated. Then he saw Lu Ping directly stick a four-colored restriction breaking talisman on the protective wall of the formation without saying anything.
"Four-colored …"
Before Deng Ming's exclamation faded away, Lu Ping had already seen the other four nodes on the protective array formation. Among them, only two nodes were much brighter than before. Including the two nodes he found earlier, the other four nodes were abnormally dim and gloomy.
While the effect of the four-colored restriction breaking talisman was still there, Deng Ming quickly set up a few formation tools, which echoed with the six nodes on the protective wall of the formation. Then he began to work on the entire protective wall of the formation.
Lu Ping's Three Pure Eyes, which had been completely refined, burst out two cyan lights at this time. Then he stuck three marks on the protective wall of the formation before the effect of the four-colored restriction breaking talisman disappeared.
"How is it?"
Deng Ming nodded excitedly and said, "Great! I only used a three-colored and a four-colored restriction breaking talisman. This, this, this is too wasteful. I'm really ashamed!"
"Hehe, as long as it can shorten the time to break the formation."
Deng Ming nodded and said, "I see. But these nine nodes need to be tested for a long time again. These nodes are divided into two kinds: bright and obscure. Only three of the nine nodes are bright, and the other six are obviously dim. I don't know what's going on."
It took Deng Ming more than a month's time. After repeatedly refusing Lu Ping's Array-Breaking Charms, Deng Ming finally found six more nodes in the array formation with the help of Lu Ping's [Three Pure True Pupils]. Then, the array formation's entrance was cut out from the wall.
When the two of them reached the fifth formation, Deng Ming was no longer anxious about the remains that were right in front of him. He turned around to look at the formation behind him and said, "I understand, I understand. I said that the fourth and fifth formation are much harder to break than the outer formation of the legendary Nether Void Formation. The formation has already been modified, and it's similar to strengthening it. This is already close to the strength of the sixth formation."
At this time, Lu Ping more or less understood the situation of the Hidden Void Formation. He knew what it meant to be able to strengthen any of the formations in the Hidden Void Formation. He said in surprise, "Doesn't this mean that only the top formation masters in the world of cultivation can do this?"
"Yes, that's right!"
Deng Ming turned to look at the corpse behind him and said, "If that's the case, it's very likely that these two strengthened formations came from the person in front of me when he was still alive. In other words, I might have obtained an extremely impressive legacy."
By then, the opened door of the formation had slowly closed up. Lu Ping smiled at Deng Ming and said, "Congratulations, then. This time, you've broken the fourth and fifth formation consecutively, which are equivalent to the sixth and seventh formation inside the Hidden Void Formation. As long as you take the time to study them, you will definitely be able to understand the essence of these two formations. When that time comes, the world of cultivation will probably have another formation master."
Deng Ming smiled and said, "This is all thanks to senior's help. Otherwise, I wouldn't have such great hope."
As Deng Ming said that, he began to tidy up the corpse before him.
On the side, Lu Ping said meaningfully, "Yes, without the support of a force, whether it's an alchemist, a refiner, or a formation master, in the world of cultivation, almost all of them are in a difficult situation."
Deng Ming placed a piece of animal skin and a palm-sized abacus in front of him. Then, he took the storage artifact from his waist and began to check it in his hand. At the same time, he smiled and said, "Senior, are you interested in me?"
Lu Ping quickly shook his head and said, "I'm not interested in you. It's the sect that I'm in that is interested in you!"
Deng Ming's face lit up. He took out three jade slips from his storage artifact and carefully checked them one by one. It seemed that the formation inheritance left by the corpse should be in these three jade slips.
Seeing him like this, Lu Ping stopped talking. After a while, Deng Ming finally reacted. He smiled at Lu Ping apologetically and immediately asked, "Senior, can you make the decision? Why would they accept a Formation Master of unknown origin like me? "
Lu Ping did not answer Deng Ming's question directly. Instead, he said, "How about a treasure ship?"
"What?"
Deng Ming was stunned. Then, a trace of yearning and doubt appeared on his face. He said, "A treasure ship?"
Deng Ming did not think that Lu Ping had the right to casually accept a rogue cultivator and an unknown formation master in the sect. Just like the process of accepting foreign cultivators by ordinary sects, the test of passing the recognition might take decades or even hundreds of years. How could Deng Ming wait for such a long time?
However, Lu Ping immediately used a treasure ship to destroy Deng Ming's conjecture. What was a treasure ship? It was a secret among secrets of a sect. It was a mobile base of an overseas sect. It was on par with the first secret place of inheritance of a sect, a great sect protector, a main spiritual vein, and so on. It could be called the foundation of a sect. Yet, it was so easily revealed to Deng Ming.
The right to speak?
If Lu Ping was worried about this, would he reveal the treasure ship to Deng Ming? This was a powerful counterattack to the right to speak. Lu Ping did not care about the right to speak in the sect at all. He had the qualifications that the sect was willing to break the rules for!
However, at this time, the first thing that came to Deng Ming's mind was naturally a formation master's yearning for a treasure ship. For a formation master, there were only three recognized achievements in their life: first, breaking the entire Mysterious Void Formation, which no one could achieve. Second, presiding over the establishment of a sect-protecting formation for a sect. Third, participating in the construction of a treasure ship, which was known as the pinnacle of all cultivation arts, and taking charge of one of the important tasks.
Participating in the construction of the treasure ship, Deng Ming naturally knew that he could not take charge of one task. After all, how could there not be a formation master among the sects that could build their own treasure ship? Even so, being able to participate in the construction of a treasure ship was an indescribable temptation for a formation master.
But then, he was overwhelmed by the second thought of fear. For the first thought of a beautiful future, the secret of the treasure ship was revealed to him without hesitation …
Deng Ming looked at Lu Ping, who was walking around again. At the same time, he looked at the surrounding formation walls from time to time. However, at this time, Deng Ming could already see that Lu Ping seemed to be looking for something, and what he was looking for was probably related to the purpose of breaking into the Mysterious Void Formation, as he was not a formation master at all.
Deng Ming's twinkling eyes naturally fell on Lu Ping, but it was not good for him to explain anything now. No matter what, Deng Ming's talent and achievements in formations were enough to make Lu Ping admire him.
"You know, I could have invited you on another occasion!"
Deng Ming naturally understood what Lu Ping meant. This was the Mysterious Void Formation, a heaven for formations, his home ground. If the two of them really fell out after Deng Ming rejected him, there was no other place in the Mysterious Void Formation that could give Deng Ming the confidence to go against a Dharma adept. Moreover, the two of them had only met by chance. If one were to say that Deng Ming had not secretly taken precautions against Lu Ping, even Deng Ming himself would not believe it.
Deng Ming finally answered seriously, "I need to think about it!"
"Alright!"
Lu Ping answered without hesitation, and then asked, "What did you gain from the remains?"
Deng Ming excitedly waved the abacus, the animal skin, and the three jade scrolls in his hands, saying, "This senior was indeed a grandmaster in matrices. These three jade scrolls contain the legacy of matrices he left behind. This abacus is an auxiliary treasure used by matrices practitioners. Haha, it's already a Spirit Cultivation level treasure. If I had this treasure in hand, the time I spent calculating the nodes of the matrices would definitely be greatly reduced. And this animal skin is a diagram drawn by this senior after he entered the Mysterious Void Formation. From the looks of it, this senior has already deciphered nine matrices from the outside in. My goodness, this is a top-notch grandmaster in matrices, and he has comprehended a total of, twenty-nine matrices in the Mysterious Void Formation?"
The number "twenty-nine" at the end caused Deng Ming's tone to rise abruptly, and his face was filled with disbelief. He had studied in the Mysterious Void Sea for more than twenty years, and he had only deciphered three complete matrices. If not for Lu Ping's help, he would not have been able to decipher the fourth and fifth matrices. Even so, if he wanted to completely comprehend these two matrices, he would have needed at least two to three years. But this person had already comprehended twenty-nine matrices. What a difference!
At this moment, Lu Ping suddenly exclaimed, and asked, "Why is the color of the fifth matrices' protective cover changing?"
"What?"
Deng Ming quivered, and broke free from the joy of obtaining the matrices. When he turned to look, he saw that the fifth matrices' protective cover, which had been deciphered earlier, was turning red.
Deng Ming's expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "Oh no, someone is ambushing us outside. This person's ability in matrices is far above mine!"
Before he had finished speaking, a huge spot of light suddenly condensed on the protective cover of the matrices, and then a green flame shot out from the spot of light, pouncing towards Deng Ming's body. Under the cover of the flame, three invisible hands made of yuan qi grabbed at the treasures in Deng Ming's hands.
