"Ding!"
The blue light flashed and returned to Old Liu's hand.
"Eh?" At this moment, even those who had poor eyesight could tell that this ordinary-looking stone door was not simple.
Following which, the experts landed and stood in front of the stone door.
"Everyone, does anyone know what's going on?" A red-faced, red-haired old man with a dignified expression looked at the people around him and asked.
"Sss ~ What extravagance." At this time, a very short man, who was only 1.6 meters tall and thin, wearing a khaki robe, suddenly looked shocked. His face was full of disbelief as he sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Fellow Daoist, did you notice something?" Someone beside him asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, this stone door should be made from Earth Essence." The skinny old man said in a deep voice.
Earth Essence was the Yang Earth of the Five Elements. Earth Essence was the essence of the Yang Earth of the Five Elements. It was the core of an extremely precious natural treasure.
"Earth Essence!?" The other cultivators who heard the name also subconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air, and then a look of greed appeared in their eyes. Obviously, everyone wanted to own such a good thing.
"Is there any way to break it?" The red-haired old man with a dignified expression asked.
"Burn it with Li Fire and Kui Water. Other than that, there's no other way." The skinny old man glanced at the red-haired old man and said indifferently.
"Everyone here, which one of you cultivated a fire-elemental cultivation technique and condensed Li Fire? Or perhaps you cultivated a water-elemental cultivation technique and condensed Kui Water? "The red-haired old man thought for a moment and turned to the cultivators behind him and asked.
The cultivators looked at each other and did not speak.
"Is there no one? You should know that if this door can't be opened, we won't be able to obtain the item inside. Do you think you have a chance? Do you think it's an otherworldly paradise inside? " After waiting for a moment, the red-haired old man still did not see anyone taking the initiative to step forward. His face darkened and he sneered with displeasure.
Following which, he flipped his palm and a small white porcelain bottle suddenly appeared in his hand.
"This is our Scarlet Sun Sect's unique Triple Yang Energy Gathering Pill. Every single one of them can help cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage advance by a minor stage. I, Lie Feng, can promise that as long as someone can open this stone door, this bottle of Tri-Yang Energy Gathering Pills will be given to that person. "The red-haired old man, Lie Feng, said loudly.
"Whoosh ~"
As soon as he said this, all the cultivators below the Nascent Soul Stage, including those in the Nascent Soul Stage, were in an uproar.
What was the purpose of cultivation? Wasn't it for longevity? Free and unfettered? Now that there was something that could help them improve their cultivation, allow them to live longer and become more powerful, there was no reason for the cultivators not to feel excited.
"Is that true?" Finally, a cultivator couldn't help but ask.
"Of course I'm serious." Lie Feng's eyes flashed slightly as a hint of mockery flashed through them. He sneered.
"That's good. I believe that Spirit Severing Stage seniors won't go back on their words. I'm Mu Xiao from the Ocean Wave Pavilion. I cultivate the Sunflower Water Dao. I'm willing to serve seniors." A man who looked to be around 30 years old walked out from the crowd and said.
"I am Hua Shan Dao Xu. I am also willing to serve senior." Then a man wearing a Daoist robe with a taiji diagram on his back appeared.
"I am Wu Dang's Qing Chen. I am willing to serve senior." Then, an old man walked out of the crowd. His entire body was white, and he looked like a real person. He had the demeanor of an immortal.
"I am Shui Bei Zi from the Southern Sea Sect. I am willing to serve senior." A tall, dark-skinned man who looked very much like a fisherman said.
"…"
In an instant, more than 20 cultivators with different appearances, some young and some old, walked out from the crowd.
"Good. Fellow Daoists, let's begin. "Lie Feng moved to the side and smiled.
"Senior, please wait." Mu Xiao, who was the first to come out, stopped him.
"What?" Lie Feng frowned and asked.
"Senior, are you going to let us attack together or one by one?" Mu Xiao asked.
"Naturally, we will attack together." Lie Feng replied without thinking.
"If so many of us attack together, who will get the reward in the end?" Mu Xiao asked again.
"Don't worry, I have enough Three Yang Soul Gathering Pills. I guarantee that each of you will get one." Lie Feng said calmly.
"In that case, I am relieved." Mu Xiao cupped his fists.
Then, he nodded to the surrounding cultivators. With a low shout, he cast a Daoist technique at the stone door.
In an instant, a clear stream of green light shot toward the stone door.
When the surrounding cultivators saw this, they did not hesitate and began to make hand seals. Waves of Kui Water and Li Fire attacks bombarded the stone door made of Earth Essence.
Just as Mu Xiao and the others were trying to break the door, the skinny old man suddenly transmitted his voice to Lie Feng, "Fellow Daoist, you are good."
"Same here." Lie Feng replied.
The two of them looked at each other and tacitly retracted their gazes.
"These fellows, they are all old foxes. None of them are easy to deal with." Sei Itō, who was hiding in the dark, said with a twitch of his mouth.
Scarlet Sun Sect, just from the name, one could tell that it was a sect of fire cultivators who walked the path of Yang. Who would believe that an old man from such a sect did not know how to use Li Fire techniques? Even if it was a coincidence that he did not cultivate Li Fire techniques, he should have other powerful fire techniques. Breaking a door made of Earth Essence should not be difficult, right? Why didn't he do it himself? Why did he have to lure the group of low-level cultivators? Wasn't it because he wanted to exhaust the strength of these low-level cultivators and save some strength for his next move? He also did not want to expose more of his methods to others!
The old man who recognized the Earth Essence had clearly noticed this as well. However, this was beneficial to him, so he did not say anything.
As for the other Severed Soul Stage cultivators, they were aware of this as well. However, the former and the skinny old man felt that this was more beneficial to them, so they did not say anything. As for the latter, they were not strong enough. In this circle of cultivators where the bigger fist was the boss, there was no way for them to display their strength. As such, they could only silently accept it.
Just like that, a few minutes passed in the blink of an eye as the cultivators present all had different thoughts.
At this moment, a crisp "kacha" sound was heard, and an irregular crack mark appeared on the stone door. Then, the crack enlarged and extended. In the end, it completely collapsed amidst a series of cracking sounds, revealing the pitch-black passage behind it.
Mu Xiao was slightly out of breath as he saluted Lie Feng, "Fortunately, we did not fail."
"Not bad." Lie Feng smiled and took out three white porcelain bottles. He tossed them to Mu Xiao, "These are the Three Yang Energy Gathering Pills that I promised you. You can split them among yourselves."
"Many thanks, Senior." Mu Xiao waved his hand and used a gentle stream of water to collect the three white porcelain bottles.
After fulfilling his promise, Lie Feng did not say anything. He turned into a ray of light and entered the passage with the other Severed Soul Stage cultivators.
Behind them were the Nascent Soul Stage and Golden Core Stage cultivators.
"Alright, everyone. Let's split the pills." Mu Xiao turned around and looked at the other Door Breakers who had surrounded him in the center and smiled.
…
Sei Itō, who had entered the pyramid with the crowd, exclaimed in surprise, "This environment … and this feeling … It's similar to the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum in Shu Mountain."
"Could it be that this pyramid is the mausoleum of a certain Flame Emperor?"
Just as he was thinking this, a series of exclamations sounded from the pyramid.
"Ah? My cultivation has been sealed! "
"Me too."
"How is that possible? There's actually a cultivation restriction here!?"
"…"
"Don't tell me it's a forbidden energy channel." After listening to the exclamation of those people, Ito Sei couldn't help but smile bitterly.
One must know that the Yuan Sealing Passage in the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum can even imprison and suppress the power of a Celestial Immortal. Although the situation in this pyramid does not seem so exaggerated, it should not be a problem to imprison Severed Soul Stage and Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.
"It's going to be fun later." Immediately after, a gloating smile appeared on Sei Itō's face.
Don't forget that the Yuan Sealing Passage in the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum was accompanied by puppet mercenaries. Each of them was a warrior with extraordinary strength. Judging from the puppet mercenaries outside the pyramid, there was definitely no lack of them inside the pyramid. In this way, it would be extremely difficult for this group of people who only cultivated Qi and not Physique Cultivation to pass through this Yuan Sealing Passage without a group of casualties.
Thinking of this, Sei Itō did not hesitate and slowly walked along the passage into the interior of the Golden Pagoda.
The entire passageway was about two meters wide and six to seven meters high. It was rectangular in shape. The surrounding walls were smooth and flat, as if they had been cut by a sharp blade. There was not a single trace of imperfections. The surface was yellowish brown, and there were no paintings, drawings, or words. It was completely bare except for a stone platform that protruded from every five meters. A faint everlasting lamp was burning on the stone platform.
After walking slowly like this for about five or six minutes, the color of the ground of the passage suddenly changed from the original yellowish-brown to dark blue bricks. After walking on it, he immediately felt a strong suppressive force. Even Sei Itō, although his spiritual power was not sealed, his own spiritual power was still slowed down a lot. Obviously, from here onwards, it was the range of the Yuan Sealing Passage.
Feeling the strange power in his body, Sei Itō smiled and continued to walk deeper into the passage.
"Ah!"
Sure enough, not long after, several shrill screams came from the depths of the passage. Needless to say, Sei Itō knew that he must have encountered puppet soldiers guarding the passage. He just didn't know if it was the four-man clan like the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum or some other combination of numbers.
After walking unsteadily for another three or four minutes. Finally, the figures of a large number of practitioners who were blocked in the tunnel came into Ito Sei's sight. Moreover, it was unknown whether it was because of the restriction of the Mana passage, or the restriction of the Dharma power of the Primordial Spirit, but the figures of the Celestial Immortals who were originally hidden in the void also appeared. They quietly hid in the crowd and did not make a sound.
