Immortal Mansion Longevity

Chapter 456
……

mottled fence,
dilapidated doors and windows,
There is still a faint glimpse of what it looked like back then.

A group of people walking on the old street,
Looking around in a complicated mood,

With inexplicable sadness.

"How grand was the sect back then?"

Looking across the large buildings, Tang Tianbao couldn't help thinking.

The secret realm only opens once every 100 years. As the son of this generation, it is also the first time he enters.

Although there are resources left by the ancestors in the secret realm, it can greatly alleviate the current predicament.

However, Tang Tianbao, Zhou Ziwen and others were surprisingly not happy. Instead, they felt a sense of guilt towards the ancestors of the sect.

Since the beginning of their cultivation, they have been indoctrinated with the concept of cultivating hard for the revival of the sect, and they have already genuinely recognized the identity of the monks of the Sacred Fire Cult.

If it is not for the incompetence of the younger generation, why should we rely on the legacy of the ancestors everywhere? !
But the fact is the fact. Since losing its supremacy, the Sacred Fire Cult has been suppressed by the god Samana with all its strength, and has become weaker and weaker, so it has to remain anonymous.

The most critical cultivation resources are getting less and less, and the situation is getting more and more embarrassing.

After the death of the last elder, Shi Renjie, there was even an embarrassing situation where there was no Golden Core cultivator, which made many loyal congregants feel unwilling but helpless.

"."

Feeling ashamed, Tang Tianbao, Zhou Ziwen, and Uncle Yang walked forward slowly, and no one spoke for a while.

As an alchemist, Liu Yu's revealed cultivation is only in the middle stage of foundation establishment, so he is naturally in the safest position in the middle.

He joined the Sacred Fire Cult now only for the "Three Elements Fruit", and he didn't have any special feelings, let alone any burden.

However, as monks of the same sect, they can understand the current mood of the six people.

The core congregants who can be selected to enter the secret realm are naturally trusted. Most of them were cultivated (brainwashed) by the sect from an early age, and they are favored by resources far exceeding ordinary monks.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
In this case, if you don't have a little guilt, then you have no conscience.

The three of Tang Tianbao are in front, Liu Yu is in the middle, and the other three late-stage Foundation Establishment members are separated from the rear.

A group of seven people groped forward cautiously.

Cautiously avoiding the sensing range of the puppets, the seven walked among the decaying buildings. Tang Tianbao, who had been silent for a long time, spoke slowly, telling the news about the secret realm.

Although the holy fire order can prevent the second-tier guardian puppets from being regarded as intruders, each third-tier puppet is controlled by a separate system formation, and it is hard to say whether it will be effective.

And as the secret realm left over from the prosperity of the Holy Fire Cult, Tier [-] puppets also exist, and the number is no longer a small number.

The seven of them naturally had to be careful, and they couldn't make fun of their lives.

"The secret realm is divided into three layers"

Having said that, the seven of them stopped walking and came to a crossroads. There were guard puppets on the left and right roads.

Tang Tianbao paused, estimated the sensing range of the puppet, and silently jumped onto the eaves and walls of the house.

After the six people followed and took their positions, he continued to introduce.

The body of the immortal cultivators in the foundation-building period is no longer a mortal body, so it is no problem to use a little strength to jump up to a building that is more than ten feet high.

Liu Yu closely followed the footsteps of the three people in front, within two feet of each other, remembering every word of the news about the secret realm that Tang Tianbao said in his heart.

At this distance, if he chooses to make a sneak attack, he is very sure that the result will be one person.

"Perhaps, when Tang Tianbao has said about the news about the secret realm, he can decisively kill this person and get the holy fire order?"

Flying over the eaves and walking between the walls, an inexplicable look flashed in Liu Yu's eyes, and a bold idea arose.

With his current strength, if it was a sneak attack, he would be very sure to kill any one of the three first, and then retreat under the attack of the remaining five.

The means are a little despicable, but as long as the goal can be achieved, he doesn't mind using it.

However, Liu Yu thought about it again and again, and finally suppressed this idea for the time being.

Although Tang Tianbao's behavior in the past was frank and frank, but it was such an important matter, no one knew whether he had left a hand in the key areas.

After all, knowing people and faces but not knowing the heart, there is no way to verify the authenticity of the news at this time.

It's better to follow this person to be safe, and it won't be too late to do it when you reach the position of Sanyuanguo, or if there is a suitable time!
Liu Yu listened carefully. Tang Tianbao's speech was extremely fast, and in just a few dozen breaths, he roughly introduced the situation in the secret realm.

According to it, the entire secret realm is divided into three layers.

The first and second floors store a large number of resources left over from the heyday of the Sacred Fire Cult, but each resource is protected by formations, puppets and other means.

If there is no torch to open it, it can only be cracked by brute force.

As for the third layer, it is the core of the entire secret realm. Tang Tianbao only mentioned it in a few words, and seemed unwilling to mention it.

Liu Yu's face remained calm, but he secretly felt a little strange in his heart.

But at this time, the question was too abrupt, so I didn't open my mouth. Anyway, in the end, all the mysteries will be revealed.

As for whether he can make it to the end, Liu Yu is sure.

"step" "step"

On some decayed eaves, slight footsteps sounded.

Although restrained enough, the six of them are not like Liu Yu, who can control their strength in a subtle way.

Inevitably, there was still a slight movement.

Fortunately, the seven of them were outside the perception range of the guardian puppet, and slight movements would not affect the situation.

After walking so slowly for a while, before returning to the bluestone ground, Tang Tianbao raised his hand, and the seven people stopped in front of a high tower.

From the surface, the tower is dark blue and has seven floors, and it seems to be made of wood.

However, Liu Yu glanced and knew that this tower was definitely not an ordinary building.

How can ordinary buildings not decay after three thousand years?

At least it is also made of spirit wood, and it has also undergone special treatment, as well as the blessings of runes and formations, so that it can always maintain its original appearance.

After visual inspection, the tower is about 21 feet high, and each floor has about three feet.

Unlike the surrounding decaying buildings, although there are some old traces, there is no decay after all.

"--tower"

The square plaque does not seem to be blessed by the formation, the traces of the first two characters have been blurred, and only the last word "tower" can be barely recognized.

Next to the entrance of this tower, there is a huge puppet hovering, which seems to be a guardian puppet.

Liu Yu looked carefully, his eyes could not help but focus slightly, and his heart felt strong palpitations.

This is a snake-shaped puppet, compared to a small human being, it is seven or eight feet tall just by hovering its body.

If the body is completely stretched out, it is estimated to be at least a dozen feet.

A body composed of sections, two huge fangs, and a dark blue appearance like a knife and an axe.
Even in a deep sleep, the aura emanating from this snake-shaped puppet still made the seven of them feel strongly uneasy as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

There is no doubt that this is a Tier [-] puppet with the combat strength of Golden Core level!
Alerting himself to act carefully, Liu Yu withdrew his gaze and looked at Tang Tianbao to wait for the next text.

"The Greenwood Pagoda."

Tang Tianbao muttered to himself, and said the name of this pagoda.

After pondering for a few breaths, he seemed to have made a decision, and said softly with a dignified expression:

"The Qingmu Pagoda was built by the last Nascent Soul Patriarch of the Holy Cult, and it is a special place for storing pills."

"The elixir is placed in it, which can preserve its medicinal properties well and maintain immortality for 5000 years."

"Ziwen, Uncle Yang, fellow Daoist Hong, just wait here. I'll just go in and get the pill myself."

Not to mention the formation mechanism inside the Cyanwood Pagoda, just the snake-shaped puppet at the door is a natural barrier to these foundation-building monks.

After years of corrosion, whether the original control formation can work is still a matter of debate.

One can imagine the danger!

"I don't know if the torch order can still work."

Looking at the tower, Tang Tianbao had complicated eyes.

"No."

"The secret formation has been corroded over the years and has not been effectively maintained. Whether the holy fire order is useful or not is still a matter of opinion."

"Holy Son, you must not take any risks yourself!"

"Let the old man do such a dangerous thing."

"Anyway, the old man is already two hundred and five years old, and the deadline is in the past few years. It is time to use the remaining heat for the holy religion."

Uncle Yang, with white beard and hair, thin body, and full of old appearance, stepped forward at this moment, and spoke resolutely.

He looked serious, and his words and actions did not seem to be fake.

"Yes, Holy Son."

"You are the hope of the Holy Cult, if there is something good or bad, what should we do?!"

The three late-stage Foundation Establishment congregants also spoke to dissuade them.

Seeing this touching scene of "competing to die", Liu Yu felt nothing in his heart, and just stood aside silently.

He has no idea of ​​taking risks at all, so naturally he won't speak at this time.

Even if you want to "perform", it's not at this time. If the other party agrees with the trend, wouldn't it be a dilemma?

Furthermore, Liu Yu joined the Sacred Fire Cult as a guest minister in less than a year, and it was not his turn to talk about seniority.

So at this time, it is better to be silent.

"Tianbao understands everyone's thoughts."

"But this is the responsibility of every Holy Son. I can't choose to escape because of danger. I have a duty to do so!"

Facing Uncle Yang and other core congregants, Tang Tianbao slowly shook his head and nodded, and finally said firmly.

"Son."

Uncle Yang and the others were very anxious when they heard the words, and they did not give up persuading them.

"You don't need to persuade me anymore, I have made up my mind."

"The Holy Church is now in a precarious situation, and all kinds of resources are lacking. Everyone understands the situation."

"Tianbao has been fully cultivated by the Holy Church since he was a child, now is the time to fulfill his responsibilities!!"

Tang Tianbao said categorically.

In the face of danger, he did not flinch, and firmly fulfilled his responsibilities as the Son of God.

"Holy Son, don't"

Several people still did not give up persuasion.

Judging from the expressions, demeanor, etc., as well as the induction of the spiritual sense, Liu Yu judged that the few people did not seem to be cheating, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved.

In a sect, there are always some monks who are dedicated to the public.

Before the building collapsed, there were always a few people who chose to be buried with them.

Facing the persuasion of several people, Tang Tianbao waved his hand to indicate that there is no need to say more, then looked at the "Qingmu Pagoda" and the giant snake puppet, took out the holy fire token and took a firm step.

No hesitation!

He slowly approached the entrance, and at the same time pinched the magic weapon to hit the holy fire token, and began to activate the token.

And Liu Yu, Zhou Ziwen, and Yang Shu stood under the eaves, watching him walk alone.

After a while, it was less than fifteen feet away from the giant snake puppet.

As it entered the sensing range, the giant snake puppet was automatically activated by the power of the formation, and a faint glow lit up in its pupils, which were larger than the lantern.

Almost half a breath later, the cold vertical pupils were lit up by a faint light, looking like two green lanterns from a distance.

Under the eaves, Liu Yu's heart tightened when he saw this, and his mind was tense like never before.

As long as the situation is slightly wrong, stay away from here immediately.

Puppets are different from living beings, they do not have any intelligence, they will have no reason to speak of at that time, and they will not accept "benefits", they will only follow the last order, they are emotionless killing machines.

Moreover, the sensing range of the revived golden core puppet is not comparable to that in silence.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu sent a voice transmission to Zhou Ziwen and the others, and quickly retreated to a safe place first, and the six quickly retreated to a safe distance.

In sight, the giant snake puppet has fully recovered.

"click" "click"

Amidst the sound like grinding teeth, it slowly stood upright without making a move, and its seven or eight feet tall body was raised again to more than ten feet.

It seems that a fatal attack is about to be launched in the next moment!
Looking from a distance, a ferocious aura is coming, accompanied by a strong sense of crisis.

Even though Liu Yu had retreated to a safe enough distance, the strong sense of crisis did not attenuate in the slightest.

"Is this the golden core puppet?"

"If you can harvest one, you will have a certain amount of power to fight against the Golden Core cultivators in the future, at least you have enough guarantees for your own safety."

Looking at the giant snake puppet, the greedy look in Liu Yu's eyes flashed away.

But he still restrained himself, the most important purpose of his coming here was for the "Three Yuan Fruit".

Any other magic weapon, spiritual object or resource must give way to the spiritual fruit.

"After the Sanyuan fruit, maybe we can plan something. This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run."

Liu Yu folded his arms around his chest, narrowing his eyes slightly as he thought about it.

On the other side, facing the resuscitated giant snake puppet, one can imagine the pressure Tang Tianbao was under, cold sweat was already breaking out from his temples.

There was a flash of light in the dark green vertical pupils, and the giant snake puppet didn't move immediately, as if it was identifying whether it was an "intruder".

Tang Tianbao's heart trembled, and the speed at which he pinched the magic arts became more and more rapid. Under the crisis, his potential exploded, and his fingers were almost left behind.

Just when the giant snake puppet was about to attack, the holy fire order finally responded, and a red streak flew out.

Under the eaves, the six people also held their breath at this moment.

Zhou Ziwen, Uncle Yang and others frowned even more, as if empathizing with them, they clenched their fists and looked a little nervous.

Facing the red light, the giant snake puppet did not dodge or dodge, allowing it to sink into the three-inch position.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the seven pairs of eyes, it slowly lay down again, returning to its original posture.

The light of the lantern-like dark green vertical pupils gradually faded away.

"Success."

Beside him, Uncle Yang was overjoyed when he saw this, and said in a low voice.

Including Liu Yu, several people were all relieved seeing this scene, the formation was not completely damaged at last.

"Oh~!"

"If it weren't for the birth of Nascent Soul monks in the door, this secret realm would not be like this, and even basic maintenance cannot be done."

"The ancestors of the Holy Cult worked hard to build it. As long as a Nascent Soul cultivator is born, he can immediately enter this place."

"With the secret realm as the foundation, we may not be able to wait for the opportunity to overthrow the god Samana and restore the glory of the past."

"It is only the disciples of the younger generation who are incompetent that have fallen into this situation. It is all thanks to Yu Ze of the older generation that the inheritance can be maintained."

Uncle Yang sighed softly, expressing his feelings.

Several people felt uncomfortable when they heard the words, and silently looked at Tang Tianbao's back without saying a word.

Liu Yu glanced around with his spiritual sense, but silently watched Tang Tianbao's movements as he walked towards the entrance and entered the tower.

Although because of the fourth-order formation, the spiritual consciousness is suppressed, so it can only center on itself and spread in a straight line for at most six miles in one direction.

But no matter what, his own safety is the most important thing, and he still pays attention to the surrounding situation as much as possible.

Because of the "preservation of the magical method", Liu Yuyuan's spiritual strength is far beyond that of ordinary monks.

Even with full consciousness, as long as you don't use the secret technique of consciousness, it is not a problem to maintain it for a day or two.

If you insist on it, you can barely do it in three days.
