Chapter 373: Treasure Light Cauldron
"Then let's begin!" Seeing that all four had stood in their respective positions, Song Qingming was officially ready to start breaking this magic array.
As Fang Wuqian, under Song Qingming's command, inserted the last array flag in his hand into the northwest corner of the magic array, the spiritual energy in the middle of the pile of giant stones immediately began to collide violently.
After the spiritual energy in the middle of the magic array slowly weakened, Gao Yuyao, holding a black array flag, raised her jade hand quickly and inserted the array flag in her hand heavily into the middle of the magic array.
After the spiritual energy in these two positions was sealed by the array flags, the spiritual energy around the entire stone pile immediately stabilized slowly again.
"It's now, Fairy Duan, let's move the stones together according to the positions I arranged." As soon as Song Qingming finished speaking, he had already taken a step forward to move a giant stone beside his feet.
Duan Xueyi, who had been prepared for a long time, was not much slower than Song Qingming. After tidying up the clothes on her hands, she immediately began to move a giant stone as well.
Because they couldn't touch the stones with magic power, Song Qingming and Duan Xueyi could only move the stones by the strength of their own bodies. In this way, it was naturally much slower than moving them directly with magic power.
Fortunately, both of them were already Foundation Establishment cultivators. After the marrow-cleansing and body-refining during Foundation Establishment, the physical bodies of Foundation Establishment cultivators had long since shed their mortal shells. Under normal circumstances, their hands could easily exert a force of several hundred catties, so moving these giant stones weighing one or two hundred catties was no problem at all.
Originally, this kind of work of moving stones should have been done by Fang Wuqian, a tall and sturdy man, but Fang Wuqian didn't understand array principles at all and might place them in the wrong positions in the middle.
Song Qingming, in order not to delay time, thought about it and still arranged for Duan Xueyi to cooperate with him in moving these stones.
His method of breaking this array was still the relatively common method of attacking the array patterns. As long as he first found the weak position of the magic array, then tried to temporarily lock the spiritual power of the entire magic array, and then reversed the patterns of this array, he could easily paralyze this magic array.
The patterns of this array were engraved on these giant stones at the feet of the four. As long as these giant stones were moved away one by one and then rearranged according to the positions set by Song Qingming, the spiritual energy of the entire array could be reversed.
This method was relatively cumbersome and troublesome, and it usually took a long time to successfully crack the array, but it was very easy to use. Since Song Qingming became an array master, most of the magic arrays he encountered could be cracked with this method.
After a full hour passed, Song Qingming and Duan Xueyi carefully moved the giant stones to the positions they had set.
At this time, Fang Wuqian and Gao Yuyao, who were still using their internal magic power to seal the array's spiritual energy through the array flags, had also consumed a large amount of magic power.
"Two Fellow Daoists, we are done here, you can put away the array flags!"
As Fang Wuqian and Gao Yuyao withdrew the array flags in their hands one after another, the middle of the array began to be filled with spiritual energy again and began to collide violently. The group also began to retreat to the side, carefully observing the movement of this magic array.
However, this time, the operation of the array seemed to have a situation. The spiritual energy was no longer locked in the magic array but began to penetrate into the pool water in all directions.
After feeling the changes happening before their eyes, Duan Xueyi bowed to Song Qingming on the side with a happy face, "Fellow Daoist Song is truly extraordinary, cracking this array so quickly. In the future, if there is a chance, I must ask you for advice on the way of arrays."
"Fairy Duan is too polite. I just happened to have seen a similar array by luck. Otherwise, with my array level, it would be unlikely to have a way without ten days or half a month."
Although Gao Yuyao and Fang Wuqian were not very interested in the way of arrays, they had already heard the news they wanted to hear from the two of them. This array had been successfully cracked by Song Qingming, and next, it was their turn to enter the cave dwelling together to search for spirit objects.
After the spiritual power in the magic array gradually became thin, Song Qingming stepped forward again, took out the black silver knife from his storage bag, and smashed the giant stone in the front into powder with one slash.
With the sudden disappearance of this giant stone, a burst of spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly appeared in the middle of the magic array, and a bluestone gate slowly appeared.
A layer of water-avoidance runes was added to the top of this stone gate, blocking the cold pool water. Inside was a long corridor leading to a pitch-black place.
The four looked at each other, and Fang Wuqian lifted his legs and entered first, walking in the front position.
Following closely behind were the somewhat anxious Gao Yuyao and Song Qingming, who had just led the four to cast spells to break the array. Duan Xueyi observed carefully for a moment and walked at the very end.
Fang Wuqian, walking in the front, took out the glowing bead on his body again to illuminate the road ahead for the four.
Although the cracking of the magic array outside made everyone look down on the protective restrictions of this cave dwelling, they were still in such a Core Formation cultivator's cave dwelling and could encounter some dangers at any time. Even if they were already extremely excited in their hearts, the few still appeared unusually cautious on the road ahead.
After walking about four or five zhang along this long corridor, the path ahead suddenly opened up.
Fang Wuqian, walking in the front, slowly injected magic power into the bead magic tool in his hand, and this bead slowly became more spiritual than before, illuminating the entire corridor.
The group suddenly saw a hall four or five zhang high and wide very clearly, and there were several gates around, looking like the alchemy room, medicine room, and other compartments of the former owner. It looked like this cave dwelling was a bit larger than they had imagined.
"Look, this thing seems to be a magic treasure?"
Following Fang Wuqian's loud shout in the front, Song Qingming and the others followed immediately and soon, under Fang Wuqian's guidance, arrived beside a reddish-yellow small cauldron in the middle of the hall.
This reddish-yellow small cauldron was only about the size of a palm, and the words "Treasure Light" were engraved on it.
Because the small cauldron had been placed in the hall as an array eye, it still looked full of spiritual light and was placed on a table on the right side of the hall.
Fang Wuqian, who arrived there first, reached out and soon took the small cauldron into his hand, observing it carefully.
"This! The pressure on it is very high. I thought it was truly a magic treasure. It turns out I was mistaken."
After Fang Wuqian finished speaking, Gao Yuyao on the side took the small cauldron into her hand and looked at it, then said to Duan Xueyi on the side with some surprise, "Although this Treasure Light Cauldron is not a magic treasure, there is still a trace of medicinal fragrance on it. It should be able to be used as an alchemy furnace for refining pills, and its value is also very high. It just so happens that both I and Senior Sister Duan can use it."
