Chapter 401
Chapter 401
“These few small Medicine King Cauldrons have their own space inside, with abundant spiritual energy.”
“If they can be used for growing spiritual plants, it should be safe for people to stay inside for a while.”
Zhang Haobo immediately understood.
“You mean we might be able to use the cauldrons to break through this invisible barrier?”
Xiao Heng nodded.
“Then let’s try it quickly!”
As soon as Su Xiaomei finished speaking, she took out a small Medicine King Cauldron from her storage ring.
“Be careful!” Xiao Heng hadn’t finished speaking when he saw Su Xiaomei transform into a streak of light and enter the small cauldron.
“Come on in, everyone!” Su Xiaomei’s voice came from inside the cauldron.
Seeing this, Zhang Haobo and Xiao Heng also entered the cauldron.
The ancient-looking Medicine King Cauldron spun in the air for a moment before hurtling forward.
The moment it hit the transparent barrier, a layer of green light appeared.
The small cauldron seemed about to penetrate the barrier successfully.
Suddenly, there was a change.
The light wall disappeared abruptly, and the small Medicine King Cauldron missed its target.
Failing to enter the real Medicine King Cauldron, Xiao Heng and the others had to fly out of the small cauldron again.
“Strange, why didn’t it work?” Su Xiaomei was a bit frustrated.
“Maybe it’s because there are too many of us?” Xiao Heng speculated.
“The senior prepared four cauldrons for us, so it seems we can’t take any shortcuts,” Zhang Haobo agreed.
“Let’s try again!” Su Xiaomei decisively entered the small cauldron again and directed it towards the barrier.
Xiao Heng and Zhang Haobo stayed outside, watching the transparent barrier closely.
As expected, when the small Medicine King Cauldron touched the barrier, it neither passed through directly nor was it blocked.
Instead, it rippled and disappeared into the barrier as if it melted into water.
“It works!”
Xiao Heng and Zhang Haobo exchanged excited glances.
“Let’s go!”
Not wasting any time, the two of them each took a small cauldron and charged towards the barrier.
Meanwhile.
In Lanlin Prefecture, Li Fan and Huangfu Song had just completed the inspection of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array.
After bidding farewell to Guan Xingxiu, they were heading west to Qinghuang Prefecture.
It must be said that the remote areas in the south were all struggling similarly.
Most of them were at the bottom of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance’s rankings.
But completing these inspections together saved Li Fan and his team from running around too much.
They only needed to go through them one by one.
When Xiao Heng and the others entered the real Medicine King Cauldron.
The images in Formless’s killing intent suddenly disappeared.
Even though Xiao Heng and the others had carried enhancement arrays with them, no images could be transmitted to him.
But Li Fan remained calm.
“Fortunately, I have another plan.”
To avoid losing contact immediately like when entering Chaoyuan Sect, leaving him clueless about their situation.
Li Fan had carved a hidden recording array in addition to the sensing array on the necklace.
It would record the surroundings faithfully.
When they reconnected, the images could be transmitted to Li Fan through the sensing array.
“Now, we just need to wait patiently.”
Li Fan closed his eyes slightly, immersing himself in his divine powers again.
…
In Cangwu Abyss.
The real Medicine King.
The surroundings changed dramatically.
After a moment, a force suddenly expelled Xiao Heng from the small Medicine King Cauldron.
Caught off guard, Xiao Heng was a bit disheveled.
Steadying himself, he saw that Zhang Haobo was in the same state.
They were in a completely empty enclosed area.
The ceiling and the boundaries of the area were all metal walls glowing faintly with green light.
The small Medicine King Cauldron that brought them there had disappeared.
“Xiao Heng, come here!”
Su Xiaomei’s voice came from a short distance ahead, and Xiao Heng and Zhang Haobo hurried to catch up.
A huge bronze door stood before them.
On the door was an engraving of a round cauldron with three legs and two ears.
It looked exactly like the small cauldrons they had.
“This should be the legendary real Medicine King Cauldron,” Xiao Heng thought.
“I just checked around. Besides this bronze door, there’s no other exit,” Su Xiaomei said.
“But this door won’t open.”
Zhang Haobo tried to push the bronze door with all his strength.
The door didn’t budge.
“Should we try attacking it?” Xiao Heng suggested.
Zhang Haobo pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.
He stepped back a bit, and a vision of a blood-red sea appeared above him.
“Blood Sea Cave Heaven, who would’ve thought someone as good-natured as Zhang Haobo would have such a terrifying Nascent Soul Cave Heaven,” Xiao Heng took a deep breath.
Even though it wasn’t the first time he saw this scene, the sight of the boundless blood sea filled with murderous intent still made Xiao Heng’s heart race.
Blood waves surged, and countless blood-colored swords flew out from the sea.
Zhang Haobo pointed, and the swords howled towards the bronze door.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Explosions echoed continuously, and the bronze door and the entire space seemed to tremble.
After a while.
Zhang Haobo retracted his Blood Sea Cave Heaven.
Seeing the unchanged bronze door, he frowned and said, “It’s useless. The protection here isn’t something a Nascent Soul cultivator can break through.”
Even the usually hot-tempered Su Xiaomei didn’t argue.
She stood there, lost in thought.
Xiao Heng was also pondering solutions.
For a moment, an eerie silence enveloped the surroundings.
“I know!”
Suddenly, Su Xiaomei exclaimed.
“What do you know?” Xiao Heng looked at her curiously.
“The cauldron, the cauldron,” Su Xiaomei urged Xiao Heng.
“You still have a small cauldron left. Look at this door; it must be a mechanism like the barrier outside, recognizing allies and enemies.”
“Back then, disciples of the Medicine King Sect could enter by using their sect’s cultivation method.”
“We can’t do that. But we can trick it with the small Medicine King Cauldron like we did outside.”
Su Xiaomei said seriously.
Xiao Heng nodded at first.
Then his expression changed dramatically. He quickly backed away, face darkening, and shouted, “You’re not Su Xiaomei! Who are you?”
Su Xiaomei was stunned.
Then her face turned bright red.
“Xiao Heng! You’re courting death!”
A blazing sun appeared above her head.
Moments later.
Xiao Heng, bruised and swollen, solemnly apologized to Su Xiaomei.
“Xiaomei, I’m sorry.”
“Sorry for what? Do you think I’m that dumb?” Su Xiaomei snorted and turned away from him.
“Uh…” Knowing he was at fault, Xiao Heng felt awkward and didn’t know what to say.
