Chapter 73: Gems
Back in the Zen Yun Sect, Lu Yu opened a shrunken fairy cave mansion from the palm of his hand, called Lu Lifu, and silently recited a mantra to put Xue Ziyan's entire body into Lu Lifu.
At this moment, a lilac cloud floated in the sky, and a dignified and elegant fairy fluttered above the clouds.
"Dare to meet! You sealed the Demon Realm, but unfortunately left my daughter in a coma with serious injuries. Are you guilty? The fairy looked steady, but she couldn't hide the deep anger in her tone.
Lu Yu had never seen this otherworldly fairy dressed in white. But it was not difficult for him to know from what she had just said: she was Xue Ziyan's mother.
"Dare to ask your honorable name? I let Ziyan hurt me, and naturally it was up to me to resuscitate her. I love her, and I will take good care of her, and I dare to ask you, what am I guilty of? Lu Yu replied in a loud voice without being humble or arrogant.
"Hmph," the fairy snorted coldly, and continued, "and now, you dare to ask my name?" I might as well tell you that I am He Weiwei, the Empress of Xianting, and Xue Ziyan's biological mother. Although the demon realm has been sealed by you, and the demon who seriously injured Ziyan has already exploded and died, it is difficult to understand the hatred in my heart. Let me tell you, Lu Xi, if you can't revive the purple smoke, I will definitely seek revenge on you, and even those remnants of the demon clan who escaped from the seal, I must personally slash it! Did you hear me, stinky boy! ”
Lu Yu put away Lu Lifu and knelt on the ground with a "plop".
"Yes, noble queen mother. I will definitely do my best to revive the purple smoke. Please rest assured that the emperor and queen will hand over the purple smoke to me, Lu Yu is grateful. Lu Yu said, looking down at his knees, not daring to face He Weiwei's angry eyes.
"Stinky boy, at this time, you dare to take advantage of my purple smoke. If it weren't for Ziyan's injury to you, I would never have delivered her to you. Hello for yourself, I'll come back to you after a while. After speaking, He Weiwei moved away.
Lu Yu got up slowly, sacrificed the Flying Sword Orchid Trail unrelentingly, stepped on it and flew up to the high sky Lingyun with the Orchid Trace Sword, and went to the Panling Sect.
Soon after, Lu Yu caught a glimpse of a large area of towering mountains at his feet, several peaks planted with tall dark blue flags. Lu Yu knew that the Panling Sect was at his feet.
As soon as Qiu Heqi returned to his sect just now, he impatiently rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, found the ancient bamboo slips, and prepared to hand them over to Lu Jian for inspection.
After Qiu Heqi got the ancient bamboo slips, he immediately summoned several elders in the sect to discuss the matter of the treasure map.
They engaged in a heated discussion around ancient books, and each presented their own opinion on the marks and symbols on the map. After some in-depth discussion, they came to a preliminary conclusion: the place pointed to by the treasure map should be located in the extreme east of the Eastern Wasteland, where there is an isolated island called "Wen Ming".
The Eastern Wasteland is located on a planet in the corner of the primordial universe, which is trillions of light-years away from the fairy world, and its location is extremely remote.
Qiu Heqi felt that this news was extremely important to Lu Xian, so he immediately informed Lu Mian of the result. After hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart.
He knew that the Far East of the Eastern Wastelands was an extremely remote and dangerous place, and he had not set foot in it. But in order to revive Purple Smoke, he is willing to take a risk.
So, he expressed his gratitude to Qiu Heqi and decided to go to Wenming Island immediately to find the treasure.
Before leaving the Panling Sect, Lu Yu asked Qiu Heqi again for other details about the treasure map. Qiu Heqi told him that he had found the map in the Origin Cave. Next to the bamboo slip, he also found an old skeleton, but he was not sure what connection there was between the skeleton and the bamboo slip.
After listening to Qiu Heqi's story, Lu Yu became more determined to go to Wenming Island. Even if he is in danger, as long as he can save Ziyan, he will not hesitate.
After Lu Yu said goodbye to Qiu He, he flew towards the eastern corner of the primordial universe with the Lan Trace Sword.
During the flight, he kept recalling Xue Ziyan's figure and smile, and his heart was full of thoughts and guilt for her. He knew that he had to find the treasure as soon as possible to heal Ziyan's injuries so that she could wake up and see him.
After hundreds of days of continuous flight, Lu Yu finally came to Wenming Island in the Eastern Wilderness.
He landed on a deserted beach, and there was silence all around, except for the sound of the waves crashing against the reef. He took out the treasure map and carefully compared the surroundings, and found that this was indeed the place marked on the map.
Lu Yu began to look around for the entrance to the treasure, but soon found that it was not an easy task. He searched everywhere for a whole day, but still found nothing.
As night fell, he had to light a fire on the beach and prepare for the long night.
Just as Lu Yu was about to rest, he suddenly heard a strange sound. He immediately stood up vigilantly and looked in the direction from which the voice had come. I saw a black shadow rushing out of the woods and rushing directly at him.
Lu Yu reacted quickly and immediately sacrificed the Flying Sword Orchid Trail for defense.
The moment the black shadow collided with the Lan Trace Sword, there was a deafening loud bang.
Lu Yu took this opportunity to see the true face of the black shadow, which was a huge black beast with a sturdy body and a fierce glint in its eyes.
Lu Yu knew that since this was the location of the treasure map, it would definitely not be smooth sailing. He took a deep breath and prepared for a fierce battle with the beast.
The two of you went back and forth, and fought fiercely for several hours.
Although Lu Xian's cultivation was high, he couldn't help but feel a little difficult in the face of this fierce beast's fierce attack. He constantly changes his moves, trying to find the flaws in his opponent.
However, this beast didn't seem to have any weaknesses, and every attack made Lu Yu feel a little tricky.
Just when Lu Yu felt a little powerless to parry, he suddenly discovered a flaw in his opponent.
He didn't hesitate to seize this opportunity and deliver the strongest blow. The Lan Trace Sword slashed a brilliant sword light in the air, piercing directly into the beast's body. The beast let out a terrible scream and fell to the ground.
Lu Yu took a breath and walked over to the beast to check. He discovered that the beast's body actually contained a mysterious energy. This energy, though furious and chaotic, has a powerful and brutal power. Lu Yu guessed that this might be the key to the treasure.
He carefully absorbed this energy and incorporated it into his body. As energy continued to pour in, so did his cultivation. When he had fully absorbed this energy, he felt his body become lighter and stronger.
At this time, Lu Xian checked the treasure map again, and found that the originally vague route on the map had now become clearly visible.
He rubbed his eyes, followed the direction indicated on the map, and soon came to a huge cave. The entrance to the cave is obscured by dense foliage, and there is only a small gap to see the darkness inside the cave.
Lu Yu walked into the cave without hesitation, he didn't know what dangers and difficulties lay ahead, but he was sure that he would be able to find the treasure and save Ziyan. His heart is full of determination and faith, and he will not give up easily no matter what difficulties he encounters.
After walking in the cave for a while, Lu Yu suddenly felt a strong chill hit him.
He looked up and saw a huge block of ice hanging from the top of the cave, and a strong chill emanated from the ice. He guessed that the ice block might be one of the guardians of the treasure, and that only by defeating it could he move on.
Lu Yu began to use his cultivation to engage in a fierce battle with the ice. He used his Orchid Trace Sword to attack the ice in an attempt to shatter it.
However, the ice was so hard that no matter how much he attacked, he couldn't break through its defenses. Just when Lu Yu felt a little helpless, he suddenly thought of the strange energy he had absorbed before.
He decided to use this energy to attack the ice again. He took a deep breath, gathered his energy on the Lan Trace Sword, and slammed it out.
I saw a brilliant sword light slashing through the air and hitting the ice directly. The ice began to crack under the impact of the sword light, and finally turned into pieces and fell to the ground.
Lu Yu successfully passed the test of ice cubes and continued to walk deeper into the cave.
He didn't know how many difficulties and dangers awaited him ahead. But he's ready and won't back down easily, no matter what challenges come his way. He firmly believes that as long as he doesn't give up, he will definitely be able to find the treasure and save Ziyan.
As Lu Yu continued to walk deeper into the cave, the temperature around him became lower and lower, and there was a cold and mysterious aura in the air. He felt his steps become difficult, but he didn't stop. He knew that only through this cave could he find the treasure and save Ziyan.
Suddenly, a low roar came, which made Lu Yu feel some palpitations. He looked around, but didn't notice anything unusual. However, he could feel a powerful aura approaching. He immediately tightened his grip vigilantly on the Lan Trace Sword, ready to deal with the impending danger.
After a while, a huge white bear came out of the darkness. Its body was large and mighty, and its eyes gleamed with ferocity. Lu Yu's heart tightened, he knew that this white bear was by no means easy to match. However, instead of flinching, he bravely rose to the occasion.
The two engaged in a fierce battle.
The White Bear's attack was fierce and furious, but Lu Yu was not to be outdone, and he used his cultivation and the Lan Trace Sword to launch a thrilling duel with the White Bear.
After a fierce battle, Lu Yu finally found the flaw in the white bear, and he did not hesitate to seize the opportunity and deliver the strongest blow.
I saw that the Lan Trace Sword drew a faint blue sword light in the air, directly piercing into the body of the white bear. The white bear let out a terrible scream and fell to the ground.
Lu Yu took a breath and walked over to the white bear to check. He discovered that the white bear's body also contained that kind of supernatural energy. Although this energy is cold and mysterious, it has a powerful vitality.
Lu Yu guessed that this might be the energy emitted by the guardian of the treasure.
He carefully absorbed this energy and incorporated it into his body. As energy continued to pour in, so did his cultivation.
When he had fully absorbed this energy, he felt his body become more resilient and strong.
At this point, he looked at the treasure map again and found that the route on the map, which had been blurred, was now clearer. He continued in the direction indicated on the map, and soon came to a large stone gate.
The stone door is carved with some ancient runes and patterns, exuding a deep atmosphere. Lu Yu guessed that this stone door might be the last barrier to the treasure. He took a deep breath and prepared for the challenge that was coming.
He stretched out his palm and pressed it against the stone gate, trying to use his own cultivation to sense the mystery of the stone gate. However, Shimen did not react.
Lu Yu's heart sank, he knew that this stone door was by no means easy to open. But instead of giving up, he began to carefully observe the runes and patterns on the stone door.
After some careful research, Lu Yu finally discovered the mystery. It turned out that these runes and patterns were an ancient cipher, and only by mastering this code could the stone door be opened.
He began to press the corresponding runes on the stone door in the order of the password, only to see the stone door make a dull sound, and then slowly open inward.
Lu Yu was overjoyed, he knew that he had successfully passed the last level. He walked into the passage behind the stone door and found that it was actually a huge treasure room. The treasure room was filled with all kinds of precious treasures and elixirs, the most striking of which was a crystal clear dark red gem set in a golden scepter in the room.
Lu Yu walked up to the gem and carefully observed it. He discovers that this gem contains a powerful life force, and it is the target treasure drawn on the map, the gem that can bring people back to life.
Without hesitation, he used his immortal power to pick up the dark red gem, stored it in the Tianzhi box, and prepared to walk out of the treasure room.
