Eternal Life by Daily Divination-Chapter 158: Dazzling Treasures

At the canyon entrance, a fierce wind raged.

A banner was planted crookedly to one side of the entrance, snapping in the wind.

The pole was pitch-black and covered in dents and pockmarks. The banner itself was a dark, brownish-black, as if it had been soaked in blood.

Just looking at it from a distance, one could feel a dense, murderous intent!

"Immortals unjust, mortals shall bring judgment?"

Li Chang’an walked up to the banner and observed it carefully.

Long before entering the Secret Realm, he had heard all sorts of news about this banner.

Because of the six large, scarlet words on its surface, the banner was quite famous and had once sparked widespread discussion.

Later, many Cultivators had tried to pull it out.

But they all failed.

Even Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators had tried, yet not a single one succeeded.

"The material of this banner is quite special. It’s said that many Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators have wanted to take it with them."

Jin Mu stood to the side and tapped the pole, producing a dull thud.

Everyone could tell this banner was a Treasure, but no one could discern its Tier or move it in the slightest.

"But, while the material is good, the six words on it are a bit delusional."

"Mortals wanting to smite immortals?"

"I could kill countless mortals with a single breath!"

Jin Mu shook his head, feeling the six words were a joke.

A moment later, the four of them set off again.

The rest of the journey was smooth. They encountered no new dangers and soon approached the cave dwelling that Huang Feng had discovered.

"We’re finally here!"

Huang Feng let out a slow sigh of relief.

He stopped before a dark, brownish-black cliff and gave it a light wave.

The space around them immediately rippled like the surface of disturbed water. The original scene shattered, and a new one appeared.

"To prevent the cave dwelling from being discovered by others, I set up an Illusion Array before I left," Huang Feng explained to the other three.

Now, the Illusion had faded, and beneath the cliff, a pitch-black cave entrance appeared.

"The three of you, please follow me."

"Alright."

And so, with Huang Feng in the lead and the other three behind, the four entered the cave dwelling one by one. Behind them, the Illusion Array activated again, concealing the entrance.

"Everyone, this is the cave dwelling I discovered. A little further in, we’ll encounter the first Array, but I’ve already broken it..."

Huang Feng explained as he walked, moving quickly.

Within this long passage, there were a total of seven individual Arrays, but he had already broken them all.

What truly gave him a headache was the hidden chamber at the end of the passage.

The Array inside the chamber was particularly terrifying.

Multiple Grand Arrays were superimposed on one another. It wasn’t a simple case of arrays within arrays; some were completely overlapping, others only partially, and still others were constantly shifting. It was incredibly complex, with each layer interlinked, making it impossible to count how many there were.

"Back then, I was blinded by the Treasure and got trapped by the outermost Array. I nearly died in there."

Huang Feng’s voice still held a trace of fear as he recounted his previous experience.

As he spoke, the four of them reached the end of the passage.

Before them was a hidden chamber with an extremely high, domed ceiling.

The ceiling was inlaid with countless Luminous Pearls, like brilliant stars that illuminated the entire chamber.

They could see that in the very center of the chamber, there was a small Spirit Field.

"Star Dust Earth!"

Li Chang’an’s gaze sharpened as he stared at the Spirit Field.

Huang Feng hadn’t been lying.

The soil of the entire Spirit Field was made of the exceptionally precious Star Dust Earth.

Upon the Star Dust Earth grew four Spirit Plants.

"Blood Jade Grass, Demon Heart Fruit, Soul Nourishing Flower, and Ten Thousand Years Green!"

Seeing those four Spirit Plants, the eyes of the two brothers, Jin Mu and Jin Zhe, went wide!

At that moment, they finally understood why Huang Feng had been blinded by the Treasure and nearly lost his life in the Array!

Blood Jade Grass was a Body Refining Treasure Medicine, usable for Tier Two Body Refinement.

The Demon Heart Fruit was ineffective for Human Race Cultivators, but for the Demon Race, it was a rare treasure that could temporarily elevate a Demon Beast’s bloodline Tier.

If a Demon Beast consumed a Demon Heart Fruit while advancing in rank, its chances of success would increase dramatically!

These two Spirit Plants, though highly valuable, had rather specific uses.

What truly excited the Jin brothers were the last two Spirit Plants.

"A Soul Nourishing Flower! There’s actually a Soul Nourishing Flower here!"

Jin Mu murmured to himself, his expression thrilled.

The Soul Nourishing Flower was a treasure that could permanently increase one’s spiritual strength!

If he could consume one, then the "Divine" gate of the Foundation Establishment Three Gates would be no problem at all!

As for the last Spirit Plant, the Ten Thousand Years Green.

Li Chang’an had seen one before. It was the gift Chu Daniu had given at Zheng Qingqing’s Foundation Establishment Ceremony.

It could extend a Cultivator’s lifespan by at least ten years!

’These four Spirit Plants are all useful to me.’

Li Chang’an mused.

The Blood Jade Grass and Soul Nourishing Flower could be used for his own body and Spiritual Power.

The Demon Heart Fruit could be given to Dahuang.

As for the Ten Thousand Years Green, he could either trade it for other Treasures with a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator nearing the end of their life, or consume it himself.

Li Chang’an certainly wouldn’t complain about having too long a life.

The more longevity, the better!

Just then, Huang Feng spoke up, interrupting the other three’s thoughts.

"Everyone, the Treasures are wonderful, but we can’t get our hands on them yet. Let’s first figure out how to break the Array."

"You’re right!"

After that, all four of them began to observe the Array in the chamber.

Before long, difficult expressions appeared on Jin Mu’s and Jin Zhe’s faces. Their brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and they sat down cross-legged, falling deep into thought.

They even lit a stick of Clear Heart Incense, just to cast aside all distracting thoughts and focus solely on breaking the Array.

Li Chang’an’s expression was much more relaxed.

He secretly activated his Pupil of Truth and swept it across the entire chamber, silently marveling at what he saw.

’A total of nineteen Arrays. One Tier Two Array and eighteen Tier One Arrays.’

’If I had come here alone, it really would have been difficult to break through.’

’There are three weak points that must be struck simultaneously. Otherwise, it will certainly trigger a chain reaction, making the Array even harder to break.’

’Good thing I brought enough Puppets...’

After a moment, Li Chang’an had determined a strategy for breaking the Array.

By himself, he could simultaneously control three Puppets. As long as he was careful, it would be enough to break through these nineteen interconnected Grand Arrays.

Not long after, Jin Mu and Jin Zhe also finalized their strategy.

"There are eighteen Arrays in total! We two brothers need to strike a single weak point simultaneously!"

"Eighteen?"

Huang Feng was startled. He had only been able to identify thirteen Arrays.

In this regard, he was indeed no match for the Jin brothers, let alone Li Chang’an with his Pupil of Truth.

"Daoist Li, how many Arrays did you see?"

Huang Feng and the Jin brothers all turned to look at Li Chang’an. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Li Chang’an didn’t hide anything and told them the truth.

"Nineteen Arrays. The one in the middle is a Tier Two Grand Array!"

"A Tier Two Grand Array?"

Jin Mu and Jin Zhe looked shocked. They hadn’t noticed it at all.

If they had rushed in rashly, they would have certainly been trapped inside!

At this thought, the two of them no longer insisted on their own plan to break the Array and instead deferred to Li Chang’an.

"Daoist Li, you should take the lead in breaking the Array this time. Just tell us what you need the two of us to do."

"Alright."

Li Chang’an did not refuse.

He thought for a moment, then began to give out instructions.
