Chapter 463 The last level!
Chapter 463 The last level!
"Ahem, I was overthinking it, sorry."
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Lu Yanran's face.
Of course she knew that if Gu Jiancheng really wanted to make a move, he would have done so long ago.
"It's alright. Actually, my greatest skill is swordsmanship."
Gu Jiancheng smiled, then collected the soul of the four-headed serpent and put its corpse away.
There is only one snake on this floor.
As Gu Jiancheng spoke, he led everyone to the center of this cave level.
It wasn't much different from the scenes I'd seen before, except this one looked a bit bigger.
Moreover, there was only this jade slip on the stone platform; there were no other treasures.
This made Lu Yanran slightly disappointed.
But she didn't go forward directly; instead, she waited for Gu Jiancheng to take it.
This time, the trial in the secret realm is clearly being led by Gu Jiancheng.
Gu Jiancheng didn't stand on ceremony. He raised his hand and broke the restriction on the jade slip, then infused it with his divine sense.
The next moment, his expression changed slightly, and he immediately handed the jade slip to Lu Yanran.
"The Daoist alchemy tradition, that's what you're using."
"Mine?" Lu Yanran raised an eyebrow, then quickly took the jade slip. The next moment, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
This is because the jade slip not only contains recipes for ten Heavenly Immortal-level pills, but also one recipe that reaches the Quasi-Golden Immortal level.
There is even a Daoist alchemy manual that, after cultivation, allows for better control of flames and increases the chances of successfully forming pills!
It can be said that this jade slip alone was already a priceless treasure to her.
She would even be willing to leave this secret realm right now!
With this jade slip, she can definitely achieve a very good result in the sect's assessment.
But when she withdrew her divine sense, she discovered that Gu Jiancheng was already breaking the magic array on the stone platform.
"Do you still want to continue working?"
Lu Yanran was somewhat surprised.
Because the four-headed serpent has already appeared on this level, if we continue to the next level, what we encounter will definitely be even more terrifying!
That would be extremely dangerous.
"Of course we'll continue; this isn't the end of the secret realm."
Gu Jiancheng said without turning his head, "I know Miss Lu is worried, but it's nothing. We're already here, how can we be at peace if we don't find out the truth?"
"Okay, fine!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yanran had no choice but to agree.
Soon, Gu Jiancheng broke through the restrictive formation on this level, and this time an even larger opening appeared on the stone platform.
However, unlike others, the three of them had not even entered the room when they already sensed a chilling, demonic wind sweeping out from within.
The mere presence of this demonic wind caused Lu Yanran to tremble all over, her protective energy unable to withstand it.
She raised her hand to shield Xue Qiangwei behind her, and looked at Gu Jiancheng in a deep voice, saying, "Young Master, there may be an extremely terrifying demon inside!"
"Is there any formation we can use?"
Now, we absolutely cannot do without formations!
"Yes, but I don't know how effective it will be yet. I can only give it a try!"
Gu Jiancheng nodded, and then directly infiltrated his divine sense into it, beginning to activate the magic array in the passage.
Buzz!
In an instant, the energy of the magic array in the passage began to surge, and an astonishing pressure from the magic array spread out from it, suppressing the demonic wind.
Roar!
But soon, a roar suddenly came from inside the passage, the magic array began to hum, and the demonic wind became even more violent!
Gu Jiancheng's expression was solemn. He knew that the demonic beasts inside must have sensed the aura of the magic array and wanted to break out of the passage.
At this moment, he had not yet fully activated the magic array.
The great demon moved extremely fast, and in just a few breaths, it rushed to the cave entrance with a demonic wind.
Gu Jiancheng's divine eyes were even able to see the five heads of the giant serpent!
Its body was much larger, and lightning had already appeared on all five of its heads!
His combat power is absolutely comparable to a half-step celestial being!
Lu Yanran then led Xue Qiangwei directly to the exit of this floor.
A demon beast at the half-step Celestial Immortal realm possesses terrifying combat power!
Just as the monster was about to burst out of the cave, Gu Jiancheng fully activated the killing formation in the passage.
"Certainly!"
The next instant, Gu Jiancheng raised his hand and used the "Fix" technique to fix the giant snake's head at the entrance.
Although the confinement lasted only two breaths, it was enough for the killing formation to unleash its power.
hum!
In an instant, the killing formation erupted with raging, extremely hot flames, engulfing the giant serpent.
Ouch!
The five-headed serpent had just escaped from the spell of the fixed word when it was plunged into a sea of scorching fire.
The killing formation in this passage was also of a very high level; in just a moment, it turned the giant snake's scales fiery red.
In excruciating pain, the giant snake let out a miserable cry and frantically fled into the passage.
The entire cave shook violently at this moment, and countless pieces of rock fell down.
Gu Jiancheng remained guarding the cave entrance, even summoning the ancient banner to shield himself.
However, the flames of the killing array in the passage only lasted for five breaths before suddenly dissipating!
Gu Jiancheng's expression darkened. He knew that the killing formation was powerful enough, but unfortunately, it didn't last long enough, and he didn't have enough energy to maintain it.
But the evil wind inside the passage has now disappeared.
He could still faintly sense the presence of demonic energy within.
"Young Master Gu, is that giant snake dead?" Lu Yanran asked, frowning.
"not yet."
"But they must be injured too. You all stay outside and don't go in. I'll come back for you after I've dealt with this."
Gu Jiancheng shook his head.
Immediately, he unleashed his ultimate profound intent, taking the Pangu Banner with him as he entered.
At this moment, the passage was in complete disarray, with traces of flames everywhere.
Gu Jiancheng's eyes gleamed in the darkness.
He vaguely saw a huge figure coiled in the cave beyond the passage.
The giant snake managed to escape back!
"Humph!"
Gu Jiancheng snorted coldly, then immediately summoned all three Emperor Swords and used the Xingzi Secret Technique to instantly disappear from the spot.
When his figure reappeared, he was already inside the cave.
At this moment, in his line of sight, the enormous serpent, a hundred feet long, was coiled in the center.
However, at this moment, the snake's scales were charred black, and its entire body was covered with black and red wounds, indicating that its life force was no longer at half its former strength.
Although the killing formation failed to kill him, it still severely injured him.
However, even with only 50% of its fighting strength remaining, this giant serpent was still incredibly powerful.
The moment it spotted Gu Jiancheng, it suddenly stood up and attacked him.
Five heads suddenly rose up simultaneously, intertwined with pitch-black lightning and poisonous mist.
They arrived in front of Gu Jiancheng almost instantly.
"Humph!"
Gu Jiancheng snorted coldly and unleashed the Xingzi Secret Technique once more, slashing with nine swords again!
boom!
In an instant, nine full-power sword lights slashed down on that head.
The power of Yin and Yang raged, and a storm instantly arose.
Even though Gu Jiancheng's physical body had almost fully recovered and he was empowered by the Rising Dragon Transformation, he still couldn't stop it.
His body was forced backward, crashing heavily against the cave wall!
Now, it seems that even with his fighting strength alone, he is still no match for this giant serpent!
