"Under the famous name there are no hollow men!"
In the cave passage, Lu Qinghe leaned against the wall, panting slightly.
Qiankun, the son of refining, a strong practitioner at the tenth level of real refining.
In the instant of the previous confrontation, he was completely defeated by the opponent in a crushing manner.
If not for the mechanisms, he wouldn't have been able to last three breaths under Lu Qiankun's sword.
This was under the premise that the Tianlong Zen singing did not affect Lu Qinghe.
The strongest opponent Lu Qinghe had fought was Lu Qingyun, but even if it were Lu Qingyun facing Lu Qiankun, he would probably lose and even…he wouldn't even have a chance to escape.
Han Ya-yi had never mentioned Lu Qiankun's body technique, but this was not because Lu Qiankun's body technique was not refined, but rather because the opponent's technique had not reached the perfect level.
The level of body technique, was at the peak of refinement.
Much faster than Lu Qinghe's endless body technique.
"In this maze, if I don't break it within a day, then…"
Lu Qinghe's heart was heavy.
Although Qiankun did not understand mechanisms, the four people around him definitely had experts in mechanisms. Once these people mastered and dismantled all the mechanisms, if he was blocked by Lu Qiankun again, it would be certain death.
Lu Qinghe took out a jade bottle.
The jade bottle given to him by Jing Wu-xie.
Inside the jade bottle was the final Duolü Ling Pill.
In just two days, he had been seriously injured almost to the point of death twice, once because of Huang Tianluo, and once by Lu Qiankun. If strictly counted, both times were injuries from Lu Qiankun.
Seeking wealth in danger!
The perfect Yuan Boundary was a great opportunity, but the danger it brought also made people shudder.
"Buzzing."
Just as Lu Qinghe swallowed the Duolü Ling Pill and rested for an hour, the cave passage suddenly trembled.
Although this kind of tremor only lasted for a moment, Lu Qinghe was on high alert at the first moment.
Vaguely, he could feel that this passage was different.
After a moment's pause, Lu Qinghe stood up and continued forward.
However, when he came to a place where he had already deciphered a mechanism once, relying on the keen insight of the Qingping Sword, he perceptively noticed some changes in the details.
With great care, he took a piece of dried meat from his bag, and threw it out.
"Bang!"
As the dried meat touched the ground, a trap collapsed.
From above, a long spear suddenly stabbed down, blocking all the space for the opponent to escape.
This scene immediately made Lu Qinghe's expression freeze.
"The mechanism has changed!"
Lu Qinghe carefully calculated the time he had been in the cave from the beginning, exactly twelve hours, which was twenty-four hours.
"The formation changes every twenty-four hours."
Lu Qinghe suddenly understood the seriousness of the situation.
It would take him a day to walk around, because he had the Qingping Sword, allowing him to perceive the location of the mechanisms every time and turn the danger into safety. If someone else did it, it would probably take twice as long.
As a result, a person's energy was being consumed constantly on the mechanism formation.
No matter how powerful the mechanism expert was, they wouldn't dare claim to be proficient in all the mechanisms in the world. In the process of constantly deciphering mechanisms, once there was a slip…
"I must break out of this predicament."
Lu Qinghe concentrated his mind, continuously recollecting every detail of his journey.
Since the ancient imperial family could enter this cave, it proved that this cave was not a dead end; there must be a way to survive.
Otherwise, the ancient imperial family would not have let the younger generation of the family risk their lives to fill it.
"Wait!"
At this moment, a flash of insight came to Lu Qinghe's mind: "The ancient imperial family is proficient in the mechanism formation! I see the mechanism, it's terrifying, any strong expert in the Origin Realm who rushes in will die without hesitation! But where is the formation? Where is it?!"
Lu Qinghe looked around and the images of the Qingping sword in his mind kept flashing, presenting everything clearly in his field of vision.
But...
He saw nothing!
Reluctant to give up, Lu Qinghe walked forward a distance.
However, it was the same in other places.
"What could be the reason..."
Lu Qinghe frowned.
Time was running out, the pressure was not only coming from the mechanism formation in the cave, but also from the constantly approaching group led by Lu Qiankun.
"There must be a way to break it."
Lu Qinghe contemplated for an hour, then looked up again, continually surveying with his gaze.
Suddenly...
The reliefs on the sides of the passage, which had never been broken, appeared in his sight.
Reliefs!
Who would have paid such a high price to have the entire passage carved with reliefs?
It was totally implausible that it was only to conceal the mechanism.
Lu Qinghe's eyes sparkled as he continued to examine the reliefs.
As he concentrated, some marvels contained within the reliefs gradually appeared before his eyes.
After two whole hours, Lu Qinghe felt dazed.
It was because his mental energy was depleted due to concentrating on the Qingping sword.
Although he stopped, there was joy on Lu Qinghe's face.
"Formation! The reliefs record the formation!"
A mechanical formation.
The moment they entered this cave, they had already entered this formation.
A trapping formation encompassing the entire cave.
The trapping formation and mechanism complemented each other, forming a deadly cycle. Unless someone could comprehend the formation within twenty-four hours and find a glimmer of hope in the desperate situation, they would be trapped to death within this formation.
The key to understanding the formation lay within those reliefs.
Formations were terrifying creations that only experts in the Origin Realm could arrange, and they were also esoteric and difficult to understand. Among a hundred experts in the Origin Realm, not even one might be proficient in the ways of the formation.
Fortunately, the person who set up these formations did not intend to exterminate people, but to test and entrap them.
With caution and by constantly maintaining the Qingping sword image, Lu Qinghe had narrowly avoided danger all the way, constantly comprehending the secrets of the reliefs. It took him five hours to glimpse some superficial understanding of this trapping formation.
"Boom!"
With the mechanisms being decoded in a unique sequence, a glimmer of hope hidden behind the mechanisms was exposed. Seizing the opportunity, Lu Qinghe rushed forward and pushed open a secret room from the seamless wall.
"We're here."
As the door opened, concentric halos continuously emanated from the center, guiding Lu Qinghe's spirit straight towards the center of the great hall.
Halos!
Elemental halos!
Although the experts in the Origin Realm had fallen, the elemental halos could still be preserved, which meant that this was undoubtedly an inheritance of the elemental world.
Instantly, Lu Qinghe understood that he had found the key.
However, he did not immediately follow the guiding force emanating from the elemental halo into the elemental world to receive the inheritance. Instead, he concentrated his spirit and continued to comprehend the formations on the reliefs.
This understanding took three days and three nights.
During this time, Lu Qinghe had actively changed the trajectory of the peripheral formation several times, making the changes in the trapping formation even more esoteric.
Moreover, he had sealed off four of the six living passages, making the difficulty of seeking life from death increase several times invisibly.
"In this way, it should be able to hold back Lu Qiankun for quite some time."
After sensing the complexity of the formation and mechanism changes, Lu Qinghe felt a little relieved. Then, he spent half a day adjusting his mental and spiritual state. Only then did he follow the guiding force of the elemental halo, releasing his spirit and heading towards the elemental world.
Guiding the spirit was an ability possessed only by those who had an inheritance from the elemental world, and it was also the foundation of building various elemental worlds.
This was the first time Lu Qinghe had glimpsed the mystery of the elemental world. He intuitively felt that his spirit was continuously advancing, crossing through a multitude of bizarre worlds, traversing barriers of space and time...
Finally, the space and environment in front of me suddenly changed, and a world with abundant mountains, rivers, and rivers suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.
And under the guidance of the elemental halo, his consciousness seemed to be like a true immortal standing above the sky, overlooking the earth, his gaze flying across this vast world.
Flying!
Like flying on a sword!
No!
Even faster than flying on a sword!
At this moment, under the guidance of the elemental halo, Lu Qinghe clearly felt a sense of joy as if he was freely roaming the world.
"The sky, the earth..."
Lu Qinghe looked at everything in front of him.
Then, he suddenly looked up...
In the void, a dimly radiant sun spread seeds of life to the outside world continuously...
Stars!
This Elemental Realm actually gave birth to stars!
And it is the sun, known as the King of Stars.
This is the Elemental Realm of a Ninth-level expert in the Dao of Primordial Chaos!
In the Elemental Realm, there are stars born, emitting star power, shining all over the earth; for the Seventh-level expert in the Dao of Primordial Chaos, conceiving the moon within the star is the Eighth-level expert in the Dao of Primordial Chaos; once the King of Stars, the sun, appears, it's the gestation at the extreme, which is the characteristic of the Ninth-level of the Dao of Primordial Chaos.
Lu Qinghe had deliberately learned about the Elemental Realm information after studying the Profound Spirit Finger and the First Sword of the Elemental Realm, but...
From the brilliance emanating from this sun, it seemed that this Elemental Realm was heading towards collapse.
The inheritance of the Elemental Realm represents the inheritance of a sect, but it is not absolute. The inheritance of the Elemental Realm also has a lifespan, and as time passes, the Elemental Realm will collapse.
A Perfect Elemental Realm would be the same.
It is said that only the legendary Elemental Realm that can resonate with the ancient Elemental Realms, constantly drawing strength from the ancient Elemental Realms, can last forever.
"Elemental Realm..."
Looking at this complete world vividly displayed in front of him, Lu Qinghe sighed in amazement.
If he had not crossed the starry sea and come to this world, he would probably never have experienced such a miraculous journey in his life.
Finally, under the guidance of the guiding halo, Lu Qinghe leaped over mountains and rivers for thousands of miles, and a towering mountain peak, like a pillar supporting the heavens and the earth, appeared in his sight.
Rings of elemental halos spread out from the mountain peak, guiding the wills of those who entered the sphere of influence of this Elemental Realm, bringing them here.
As the distance approached, the mountain peak became clear before Lu Qinghe.
Halfway up the mountain, there was a bamboo pavilion, a quiet and elegant bamboo pavilion.
Such a towering mountain peak appeared with a bamboo pavilion, which was illogical!
But it did appear.
It appeared in a way that defied the laws of physics.
Because this is the Elemental Realm!
