Chapter 241
After Weng Ji introduced Prince Xu, he heard Jiang Xu slowly say: "According to the map left by our ancestors on the interlayer of the scroll, the place where he was buried is under the ground of this house. Our ancestors were in the late Gangli realm, except for Ju
Lingzhu, I hope there are other treasures."
"Spirit Gathering Pearl!"
Gu Xuan thought: "They bought the house first, and then secretly dug a tunnel leading to the place where the ancestors of the Jiang family were buried. We can just follow them."
Weng Ji agreed: "What fellow Taoist Gu Entropy said is true."
In the living room, the woman in palace clothes solemnly said: "Prince Xu, for the sake of safety, do you want to set up a covering array in the house?"
"It is natural to set up the magic circle." Jiang Xu thought, "It is not appropriate to cover the house. It should only be set up at the entrance of the cave."
Li Eunuch said: "Prince Xu, without further delay, we will dig the tunnel immediately to avoid a long night and many dreams."
Seeing Jiang Xu nod, Eunuch Li picked up the packages on the table and the three of them walked out of the living room together.
Upon seeing this, Gu Xuan immediately made the invisible clouds fly out quietly.
After Jiang Xu and the others left, they walked towards a wing not far away.
The woman in palace clothes opened the door, and Jiang Xu walked in first. Eunuch Li flicked his sleeves, and a cuckoo bird flew out, flapped its wings a few times in the air, and landed in the canopy of the courtyard.
After Eunuch Li entered the wing, the woman in palace clothes followed and locked the door.
Invisible clouds were suspended in the sky, and Weng Ji solemnly said: "Since they have set up a formation at the entrance of the cave, we can only find another way."
Xue Mang pointed to the inner courtyard: "We can go to the inner courtyard and dig another tunnel, connecting it with the tunnel they dug in the middle. We can dig the tunnel deeper to exceed the blockade of their magic circle."
"This is feasible." Gu Xuan nodded, "Three hundred and fifty feet deep, which is enough to connect with their cave. However, the empty storage bag I am waiting for may not be enough, and I have to go to the market to purchase some."
Weng Ji quickly said: "Let Weng do the shopping. It will be easy for the demon cultivators to make excuses and will not arouse suspicion. They will be back in three days."
"Ok, deal."
Gu Xuan drove the invisible clouds to fly towards the inner courtyard, then hovered in the air and pointed at a closed door.
"We will dig a tunnel in the room here, and leave the windows inside open so that Fellow Daoist Weng can hide and return."
"Weng is going."
Weng Ji left two empty storage bags, then took out an aircraft that looked like an inkstone, took out a talisman, and stuck it on his body.
With a quick thought, the black light of the talisman flashed, and Wengji disappeared, then quietly flew away from the house.
Gu Xuan drove the invisible clouds to squeeze into the house through the open window. Inside was the bedroom, complete with beds, tables, and chairs.
The window is located at the back of the house, so the cuckoo can only observe with its eyes and cannot see what is going on inside the house at all.
The two of them appeared, Gu Xuan put away the Dou Yun Bead, Xue Mang took out an empty storage bag and put away the furniture except tables and chairs.
"Brother Gu Xuan, I will dig and you will collect the soil."
Xue Mang threw the empty storage bag left by Weng Ji on the table. When Gu Xuan moved the table and chairs to the corner, he took out three long swords and dug into the ground.
…
In a certain wing in the outer courtyard, Eunuch Li used three long swords to dig into the ground.
The furniture in the wing room also only left a set of tables and chairs. The package placed on the table was open and contained more than fifty empty storage bags.
Not far from Eunuch Li, there was a storage bag floating in the air. The woman in palace clothes was sitting on a chair. Every time she made a finger gesture, a suction force came out from the mouth of the storage bag, sucking the excavated earth and rocks into it.
Jiang Xu was also sitting on the back chair, holding a wine gourd in his hand. He glanced at the woman in palace attire and Eunuch Li, and occasionally took a sip of the spirit wine comfortably.
The three long swords were waved in succession, earth and rocks were continuously sucked into the storage bag, and the large hole in the ground was dug deeper and deeper.
…
Xue Mang used three long swords to dig into the ground. Gu Xuan sat on the back chair and was responsible for driving the storage bag to absorb the excavated earth and rocks.
They all held wine jars in their hands and took a sip from time to time.
While Gu Xuan was collecting soil, he communicated with Wang Mang: "Several years ago, my senior mentioned the Spirit Gathering Pearl. What exactly is the Spirit Gathering Pearl?"
Wang Mang said: "The spirit-gathering beads are made from the mother of spirit ore, with a spirit-gathering array on the surface. They are rarer than top-quality spirit stones, but their spirit-gathering effects are inferior to those of misty insects. With the misty insects as a auxiliary, this treasure is useful to you.
, purely redundant.”
Gu Xuan secretly sighed: "There will inevitably be a conflict. Although Jiang Xu is discriminated against by his tribe, he is of the Jiang family's blood after all. Seniors still have to search for the soul of one of them to see if he wants to escape."
"Just search for Eunuch Li's soul." Wang Mang suggested, "This person's telepathy is a bit weird. Not only is it stronger than the same level, but he can also conceal his telepathy like An Mingzhu. If it weren't for the secret telepathy, he would have concealed it before. It should be
Some kind of secret technique, or a supplementary spell to the main cultivation technique. In any case, this person's soul is more worth searching, and I hope I can get useful spiritual cultivation techniques."
Gu Xuan thought: "We are both mid-term demon cultivators. Weng Ji will most likely take the initiative to deal with Eunuch Li. When the time comes, tell him that I will deal with that female cultivator and kill him as soon as possible."
…
Three days later, Weng Ji rushed back from Fangshi. With an invisibility charm attached to his, he quietly floated into the wing and placed twenty empty storage bags on the table.
At this time, the tunnel in the inner courtyard wing had been dug out to a length of more than thirty feet, extending diagonally downwards. This was Xue Mang's deliberate slowing down.
Since the storage bag was not enough, Gu Xuan placed the earth and rocks in the room.
When Weng Ji opened the cave, he dug the tunnel for more than half a month. Based on this calculation, it would take at least five days to dig a cave 350 feet deep.
Their inference was correct. When Weng Ji came back, Eunuch Li had dug a cave nearly a hundred feet deep, and the entire tunnel was pointing straight down.
Two sets of magic formations were set up at the entrance of the cave. One was a magic formation, which transformed the outer courtyard wing into its original appearance. The other was a defensive formation. The shape of the formation was a thick three-color light curtain.
…
After seven days of continuous excavation, the entire tunnel was fifty feet long.
Gu Xuan drove the storage bag to absorb the earth and rocks. Wang Mang suddenly said: "This direction is correct. If it is three feet thick, it will be connected with Jiang Xu's cave. The other party's cave will be straight down."
Gu Xuan's expression changed, and he asked secretly: "Senior, can you sense the distance between the cave exit and the ground?"
Wang Mang said: "Across the soil, my telepathy cannot penetrate too far. It cannot be sensed at the moment. If you are not worried, you can penetrate it again in a few days."
Gu Xuan hurriedly said: "Brother Xue, stop first. If you are three feet away, you can dig through Jiang Xu's tunnel. Just in case, I will wait three days before digging through."
“Only three feet?”
Weng Ji, who was standing at the back of the cave, suggested: "It will take another three days anyway, so why not dig a small cave and sit quietly and wait."
"What fellow Taoist Weng said is absolutely true."
Xue Mang used his telekinesis power and three swords
They went out together and quickly dug a small cave.
The three of them took out futons, placed them on the cave floor, and each sat cross-legged on the futons.
The continuous exit is about twenty feet away from the entrance of the outer courtyard cave. At this time, the outer courtyard cave is more than two hundred feet deep.
Even if Gu Xuan and the others immediately penetrated the cave, Eunuch Li's telepathy would not be able to detect it, and their approach was undoubtedly safer.
…
Ten days later, Xue Mang sacrificed three long swords and continued to dig the cave.
The wall of the cave became thinner and thinner. Xue Mang dug very slowly. Every time he dug out some earth and rocks, Gu Xuan would use his mind power to suck them into the storage bag.
Not long after, Gu Xuan said: "Brother Xue, there is still one foot left on the cave wall. We can't dig any more. If earth and rocks fall into Jiang Xu's cave, I'm afraid they will be alarmed."
Xue Mang nodded solemnly, first retracted the two long swords, then drove the other long sword, slowly inserted it into the top wall, and made a circle along the entrance of the cave.
Gu Xuan activated his telekinesis, and the storage bag issued a strong suction force, sucking in the entire piece of soil scratched by the long sword.
The two tunnels were finally connected. Wang Mang said: "Eunuch Li is still digging the tunnel, which is already more than three hundred feet deep."
Gu Xuan quickly offered up the Douyun Bead, and the three of them flew towards the bottom of the cave together, and soon hovered close to them.
I saw Eunuch Li stepping on two bones as white as jade and using two long swords to dig the tunnel.
The two ends of the bone were carved into the shape of a skull, which looked quite ferocious.
A woman in palace attire stood next to Eunuch Li with a sword, holding a storage bag and absorbing earth and rocks.
Jiang Xu stood above the two of them with his sword, staring at the bottom of the cave, his eyes a little fiery and a little anxious.
Xue Mang slowly transmitted the message: "In one more day's work, this tunnel should be able to be dug to 350 feet."
Gu Xuan glanced around: "Since there are treasures in the sitting place, there should also be a magic circle. After Jiang Xu breaks the formation, it won't be too late for us to take action."
Weng Ji nodded: "Eunuch Li will be handed over to Weng."
"Then Xue will kill Jiang Xu and leave the female cultivator to Brother Gu Entropy." Xue Mang smiled slightly, "I guess Brother Gu Entropy will not show mercy to her."
…
The next day, the straight tunnel was more than 350 feet long, and there was still no trace of the magic circle. Jiang Xu couldn't help but ask: "Eunuch Li, how long will it take?"
"I don't know, either." Eunuch Li said expressionlessly, and suddenly accelerated the digging speed, "It's so deep, I guess it should be fast."
Wang Mang said: "There is still one foot deep, and there is a magic circle."
Sure enough, after digging another ten feet deep, when the storage bag absorbed the last earth and stone, a multicolored light curtain appeared at the bottom of the tunnel, with flower-like runes flickering on the surface.
The colorful light curtain shimmered, causing colorful colors to appear in the cave. It was obviously a light mask covering the entire underground cave.
Jiang Xu's face was filled with joy: "Eunuch Li, this should be the Five Flowers Injuring Spring Formation recorded in the ancestor's notes."
"That's right, it's the Wuhua Shangchun Formation." Eunuch Li chuckled, "Jiang Xu, prepare to break the formation. This old slave will dig a cave."
"good!"
Jiang Xu's spirit was greatly boosted. He flicked his sleeves, and a circular array plate and nine-pole array flags flew out from it, floating in front of him.
Gu Xuan quickly made the clouds rise, hovering ten feet away.
Eunuch Li used two long swords to dig into the cave wall, and the excavated earth and rocks were also sucked into the storage bag.
