The Path to Immortality

"What a magnificent palace!"

Fang Ping stood in front of the palace and looked around, his expression somewhat solemn.

Outside the palace, it was shrouded by a powerful array restriction.

Not to mention Fang Ping, who had just entered the foundation building stage, even if a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building or the great perfection of foundation building was injured by the power of the restriction, he would probably be instantly annihilated.

There was only a door at the entrance of the palace for cultivators to enter normally.

"It seems that the third level of the test should be in the palace."

With the help of the spiritual eye technique, Fang Ping did not find any problems after exploring from a distance for a while.

But just as he was about to enter the palace, he suddenly stopped.

Fang Ping, who seemed to be aware of it, stepped back dozens of steps, reopened the spiritual eye technique, and observed the array restriction that protected the palace again.

With the blessing of the spiritual eye technique, the world in front of him seemed to have changed.

In the flickering spiritual light, the powerful power of heaven and earth continued to flow along specific nodes under the guidance of the array restriction.

Without a doubt, this was a formation that Fang Ping had never seen before.

But the more he looked at it, the more familiar it looked.

Fang Ping, who couldn't figure it out for a moment, simply stopped and took out the second-level formation inheritance from the Tianfeng ancestor that year, and quickly looked it up.

Half an hour later, Fang Ping's eyes lit up.

He found the origin of this formation, and finally understood why he felt familiar with it.

This formation is called [Tianfeng Hunyuan Nine Palaces Formation]!

It is a real second-level formation. Even a cultivator in the early stage of the Golden Core can hardly resist the power of this formation.

And this kind of formation also has a greatly simplified formation.

It is called [Bi Bo Tian Feng Formation]!

That's right, it is the first generation of the Sun family of Dangyan Peak, who once asked the formation master to arrange the first-level middle-grade formation for the Sun family!

Now, the core of the Bibo Tianfeng formation, including four Tianfeng formation flags and eight Bibo formation flags, lies quietly in his storage bag.

"No wonder I feel familiar with it!"

Calculating the time, the period when Tianfeng Patriarch was active seems to be the same era as the first generation of the Sun family.

The formation master who arranged the formation for the Sun family at that time, couldn't it be Tianfeng Patriarch himself...

After all, the two formations once came from the same source!

"There is such a fate."

Fang Ping, who felt quite coincidental, couldn't help but sigh for a while.

Fortunately, Tianfeng Patriarch was only a Jindan cultivator, not a Daojun of Huashen, or even a being above Daojun of Huashen in legend.

Otherwise, Fang Ping might have been a little suspicious, wondering if it was some reincarnation of a great power.

After figuring out the origin of the formation here, Fang Ping, who didn't find anything more, no longer hesitated and entered the hall through the only entrance.

What appeared in front of him was an empty palace.

On the floor of the palace, a huge black and white chessboard could be seen.

But there were no ordinary chess pieces on the chessboard, only a large number of mechanical puppet fragments and debris.

Puppetry is also one of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals.

Fang Ping had limited knowledge of this, but judging from the materials of these mechanical puppets, their strength was mainly in the Qi training stage, but there were also some who were in the foundation building stage.

On many of the debris, strange talismans could be seen, but they had already exhausted their spiritual power.

A slight touch would turn them into ashes and dissipate.

Fang Ping used his extraordinary spiritual sense to carefully explore, and faintly felt the fluctuations of the formation from the huge chessboard carved on the ground.

Obviously, there was another mystery here.

Unfortunately, there was an amazing sword mark that spread over twenty feet in the center of the chessboard.

Fang Ping had never seen the Jindan Patriarch take action personally, but as a foundation-building cultivator, he was sure that this sword mark definitely had power beyond the foundation-building level.

The terrifying artistic conception contained in it, as well as the remaining cold sword energy, could trigger the instinctive warning signs of the foundation-building cultivators just by getting a little closer, making Fang Ping's consciousness feel like being pricked by a needle.

"Terrible means!"

Fang Ping, who was a little nervous, couldn't help but say inwardly.

If it were me now, if I were to face such an attack head-on, I would probably have no chance of escaping.

It can be said that it was this Jindan-level sword mark, as well as other traces of battles left nearby, that almost completely destroyed the layout and pattern of this place.

Even the Tianfeng Hunyuan Nine Palaces Array that guarded this hall could not completely block the power of this sword.

However, although the remaining artistic conception is still dangerous, it depends on who it is.

If it is for a sword cultivator, it is worth a thousand gold.

Just by meditating here for a while, maybe you can learn a trick from it.

Fang Ping observed for a long time, and after repeated attempts, he stepped into the chessboard carefully.

As expected, the chessboard did not react.

Fang Ping gradually put his mind at ease, and walked around the chessboard for a few rounds, but still did not trigger any danger.

Generally speaking, similar places of inheritance will have some restrictions.

Cultivators whose realm is too high and whose inheritance is useless are not allowed to enter.

Some places of inheritance even have means such as self-destruction. If a cultivator of a high realm forcibly breaks in, it will only cause the inheritance to self-destruct.

The cave of Tianfeng Patriarch should also have similar restrictions.

But some cultivators have trump cards given by their elders that are beyond their realm.

If nothing unexpected happens, the third level test in this hall should have been forcibly destroyed by the cultivator who broke into here before, using the power of the golden elixir level.

"After all, it is just a legacy left by a Jindan ancestor. The second-level formation does not mean invincibility..."

As long as the intruder's means are strong enough, he can completely ignore the rules of setting up the tester, but directly overturn the table!

Fang Ping thought thoughtfully.

This scene may not be what Tianfeng ancestor wants to see, but it is a good thing for subsequent entrants, which can save a lot of trouble.

In previous observations, Fang Ping has noticed that at the other end of the chessboard, at the end of this hall, there is an opened door, and behind the door is a long and narrow passage.

Presumably that is the exit.

Immediately follow the door and the long and narrow passage, and go deeper into the end.

After advancing dozens of steps, an octagonal pavilion appeared in front.

At the moment Fang Ping stepped into the octagonal pavilion, a new formation restriction suddenly started.

The gray mist spread, and everything around was quickly hidden in the thick mist, and no outline could be seen.

Fang Ping was slightly startled, and subconsciously turned around to look, and found that even the way he came had disappeared without a trace.

As far as he could see, it seemed that the world around him was only the place in the octagonal pavilion.

No matter how Fang Ping explored, he could not see the things behind the fog.

"Click, click, click."

With a sound similar to the turning of a mechanism, eight portals corresponding to the eight trigrams quietly emerged outside the octagonal pavilion.

When Fang Ping looked at these portals that could only be entered and exited by one person, he could vaguely feel the message transmitted by the portal.

It turned out that the cultivator could pass the test of the first three levels and walk into this octagonal pavilion, and he had initially received the recognition of the Tianfeng Patriarch.

Next, the cultivator could choose one of the eight portals.

As long as he could reach the end, he could obtain some treasures and inheritance left by the Tianfeng Patriarch.

But no matter which portal he chose, the cultivator could not enter this inheritance place again!
