Chapter 172 Ancient Cultivator Inheritance

"The cave is covered with dust, but the formation is still running." Chen Nianzhi frowned slightly, and roughly guessed the origin of this cave. This cave has obviously not been taken care of for many years, but the formation still retains a certain power. The master of this place in the past obviously had a very good formation. "Swish--" At this time, a stream of light flew across the void in the distance. Deng Yuanwu flew over on the treasure boat, his eyes shone with spiritual light, and in a blink of an eye he saw through the blinding formation of Lingshan and discovered this third-level Lingshan. "It's the cave of the ancient cultivator." The Deng brothers' expressions changed, and they hurriedly urged the treasure boat to fly into Lingshan. Deng Yuanjie took a look at Lingshan and said excitedly: "This cave has been abandoned for many years, and the formation still has 70% of its power. Most of it has a great origin." Deng Yuanwu also nodded, but looked at Chen Nianzhi. "Kill him first, and then we will take down this cave." As soon as he finished speaking, he urged the third-level magic knife to cut over. "Don't be reckless."

Deng Yuanjie's face changed slightly, and it was too late to dissuade him.

Before Chen Nianzhi could make a move, this knife actually triggered the reaction of the Lingshan Guardian Formation.

The formation on Lingshan was activated, and a strong suction force sucked everyone into the cave.

"It's a trap formation."

As soon as he landed, Chen Nianzhi's eyes condensed slightly.

He carefully observed the surroundings and found that Yaya was still beside him, while the two people from the Deng family had disappeared.

The surroundings were shrouded in fog, and he was trapped in the cave. A third-level upper-grade formation trapped him, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to get out for the time being.

"It seems that the owner of this cave has no ill intentions."

Suppressing the thought, he carefully protected Yaya behind him, and then he found a piece of glass gem in front of him.

"Image stone."

Chen Nianzhi's eyes condensed slightly, and he recognized the origin of this thing. The image stone is a treasure specially used to record images and sounds.

If this item is of the first level, the price is usually not expensive, but the image stone in front of us is as high as the third level, which is very precious.

The third-level image stone can preserve information for more than a thousand years, which is very suitable as a treasure for recording and inheriting skills, and it is worth tens of thousands of spirit stones.

"It seems that it is the message left by the owner of this place."

Chen Nianzhi whispered, and the true essence rolled up in his sleeves, activating the image stone.

The image stone burst into light, and an illusory figure was projected.

It was an old man with a haggard face. He sat cross-legged in the cave and spoke calmly.

"I am Mo Hongwu, who has practiced for more than 500 years in my life. Now I feel that my life is coming to an end, so I leave this image stone. I don’t know which Taoist friend has the chance to see it."

"..."

As the light of the image stone flowed, Chen Nianzhi quickly understood the origin of this old senior.

This Mo Hongwu is the Mo Daoren from a thousand years ago. He was a casual cultivator in his life. When he was young, he got a precious alchemy and formation inheritance by chance. In addition, he had extraordinary talent, so he made a great name.

Mo Hongwu was one of the best purple mansion cultivators in Cangqing Mountain Range at that time. He took three longevity pills and broke through the golden elixir three times in succession. His cultivation even reached the false elixir realm.

Unfortunately, he was still half a step away, leaving a lifelong regret.

And because of the three consecutive failures to break through the golden elixir, Mo Daoren’s family wealth accumulated for five hundred years was almost exhausted. Even his relatives and friends were all robbed in order to help him protect the treasure of the elixir.

After the last failure to break through the golden elixir, he found that he was alone, his blood and qi had been exhausted, and he was almost penniless.

At the end of his life, Mo Hongwu died with hatred and could only leave this stone in a hurry.

According to the stone, he wanted to pass on the alchemy formula and formation he inherited, and let these two ancient books be passed on.

The place where Chen Nianzhi was teleported to was the place of inheritance. As long as he could comprehend the control secret of the Mowang Peak formation within one day and prove his extraordinary comprehension, he could inherit these two inheritances.

"The control secret of the Dageng Sword Formation."

Chen Nianzhi's eyebrows moved slightly, and then he realized that the formation separated him and Deng Yuanwu to prevent them from influencing each other.

Whoever can comprehend the control secret first can get Mo Daoren's inheritance.

If they can't comprehend it within one day, then in order to prevent them from forcibly attacking the formation, the mountain protection formation will be activated to kill them in the cave.

"It's still a bit difficult."

Chen Nianzhi said to himself calmly. It's not that difficult to comprehend the control secret of the third-level upper-grade formation. After all, it's just a control method. Foundation-building cultivators can control it as long as they comprehend it carefully.

It's a pity that the time given by Mo Daoren was too short. Only one day was not enough. Most foundation-building cultivators might not be able to do it.

However, he was very confident. When he was three years old, he could identify his own veins after reading it once. He could understand the cultivation method overnight and embark on the path of cultivation. This understanding was even a little shocking.

"Let's try it."

Chen Nianzhi opened the secret jade slip and took a look, then fell into comprehension.

About half an incense stick of time passed, he opened his eyes and began to try to activate the secret method to control the formation.

The formation emitted light and was controlled by him in an instant.

"It's not difficult." Chen Nianzhi whispered. After controlling the formation, he found that he could already sense the state of the cave through the formation.

Deng Yuanwu and Deng Yuanjie were still at the other end of the cave, and were now painstakingly comprehending the secret control method.

"Just right, it saves us the trouble of a battle."

Chen Nianzhi sneered and activated the mountain protection formation, the Great Geng Sword Formation.

Sword lights came one after another, slashing at everyone like a tsunami.

"No."

"How could it be so fast?"

Deng Yuanjie's face changed in horror. He couldn't believe that the formation was activated so quickly.

The two kept urging and resisting, trying to block the attack of the Great Geng Sword Formation, but unfortunately, in front of the vast spiritual energy of the third-level upper-grade spiritual vein, how long could they hold on?

Seeing that the defensive magic weapon was about to fail, Deng Yuanwu finally showed a look of shock and said with gritted teeth.

"Sir, I'm done for today."

"As long as you spare my life, I can give you anything you want."

"Really?"

Chen Nianzhi sneered and didn't hold back at all.

In front of the third-level upper-grade mountain protection formation, no matter how rich the two were, it would be useless.

As countless sword lights fell, the two men only lasted for a few dozen breaths before they were nailed to death in the cave.

After doing all this, Chen Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief. He collected the storage bags of the two and searched inside for a while.

In order to prevent the other party from leaving tracking methods in the storage bag, he only took out a few precious treasures such as spirit stones, magic weapons, elixirs, jade slips, etc.
