Chapter 401: A Bountiful Harvest, Seclusion!
Chapter 401: A Bountiful Harvest, Seclusion!
December 1, 2024
"You're asking for death!"
Lu Qing never expected that someone would be lying in ambush outside.
His eyes turned cold, and with a casual wave, he dispersed the countless attacks in the sky.
Then, he looked around.
"Bad! This person's cultivation is profound, far beyond us. Run!"
Several Xiantian Realm cultivators who had been lying in ambush around the valley, hoping to take advantage of the situation, were startled by this scene.
Their livers and gallbladders seemed to be about to burst as they tried to flee.
They had seen that someone had already entered the Mystic Realm and knew that the opportunity was lost, so they planned to ambush outside and wait for the others to exhaust themselves.
They never expected to provoke such a terrifying existence.
With just one wave, he dissolved their long-prepared attack. This Grimace Mask Man was undoubtedly a formidable Xiantian Realm cultivator, far beyond what they could provoke!
"Can you run away?"
Seeing them scatter and flee for their lives, Lu Qing's eyes turned even colder.
He casually waved, and several Blade Auras flew out, heading straight for those Xiantian Realm cultivators.
"Ah!"
"No!"
"Spare us..."
The Blade Auras emitted by Lu Qing at his current realm were incredibly formidable.
With their minds locked, those Xiantian Realm cultivators couldn't dodge, and in an instant, the Blade Auras were already behind them.
The Xiantian Realm cultivators sensed the terrifying power contained within the Blade Auras and showed expressions of utmost fear.
However, before they could finish pleading for mercy, the Blade Auras had already reached them, extinguishing all their Vital Energy.
After casually slaying the ambushers, Lu Qing's expression remained unchanged.
He went to the small cave and found that the seal outside the cave was still intact, indicating that the Xiantian Realm warriors who had entered the Mystic Realm hadn't noticed the anomaly here.
This wasn't surprising. Anyone who came here would likely be drawn to the Mystic Gate first.
How could they imagine that in a nondescript small cave not far away, so many Xiantian Realm powerhouses were being held captive?
Moreover, the Array Formation Lu Qing set up at the cave entrance wasn't something ordinary warriors could see through.
After removing the Array Formation at the cave entrance and releasing the Soul Seals on the people inside, Lu Qing left directly.
Soon after, as the Xiantian Realm powerhouses inside the cave woke up, exclamations of surprise began to sound.
After leaving the valley, Lu Qing didn't immediately head back to Jiuli Village.
Instead, he rode a golden flying vessel and flew in the opposite direction, deeper into the Ten Thousand Mile Mountains.
He didn't land until he was out of the range of the Ten Thousand Mile Mountains.
Then, he put away the golden vessel, and the power of the Spirit Talisman surged from his Spirit Platform. He completely concealed his aura and transformed into a wisp of clear wind, taking a roundabout route to Cang County.
Half a day later, Lu Qing returned to Jiuli Village without a sound.
"Ah Qing!"
"Lu Xiaolangjun!"
"Brother!"
When Lu Qing returned to the Half-Mountain Courtyard, the Great Doctor and Lin Zhirui, who had been worried, all stood up in surprise.
"Sorry for making you all worry."
Seeing their expressions, Lu Qing knew their previous concerns must have been significant.
"It's fine. It's good that you're back safely," the Great Doctor said with relief.
"Lu Xiaolangjun, what's the situation inside the mountain?" Lin Zhirui asked.
"The Mystic Realm entrance has stabilized, and people can enter now. Many powerhouses have already entered the Mystic Realm to compete for treasure opportunities..."
Lu Qing briefly described the situation inside the Mystic Realm, but he concealed the fact that he had captured and imprisoned many Xiantian Realm powerhouses and the existence of treasures like the Quintessence Lotus.
Even so, Lin Zhirui and the others still listened with shock.
They never imagined that in such a short time, so many powerhouses had already gathered in the mountain.
It seemed that the disturbance that occurred when the Mystic Realm's entrance stabilized had a much larger range of propagation than they had imagined.
Wei Shanhai, in particular, was extremely relieved that he had the foresight not to go and join the commotion.
Otherwise, he would have been alone, and he wouldn't have known how he would have died.
"Master, I'm going to seclude myself for a period of time."
After describing the situation in the mountains, Lu Qing continued.
"Alright, you can seclude yourself with peace of mind." The Great Doctor nodded in response.
"Xiao Yan, be a good girl. Your brother is going to seclude himself at home for a while. You should stay with Xiao Li and go to Madam Wei's place, okay?"
Lu Qing further comforted his sister.
"Mhm." The little girl obediently nodded.
She was becoming more sensible with age and understood that her brother often had important matters to attend to, and she no longer cried as she used to.
"By the way, there are many powerful beings deep within the Ten Thousand Mile Mountains. You should avoid going out as much as possible, and we'll talk about everything else after I come out of seclusion."
After comforting Xiao Yan, Lu Qing finally gave them some more instructions.
Seeing Lu Qing's departing figure, Lin Zhirui and the others had complicated thoughts.
They naturally could guess that Lu Qing must have obtained some kind of opportunity within the Mystic Realm.
However, everyone tactfully refrained from asking about it.
On the contrary, what everyone was more concerned about was the situation on the Mystic Realm's side.
According to Lu Qing's description, this newly emerged Mystic Realm was extraordinary and would definitely attract competition from multiple parties.
It was fine for now, as it hadn't affected them yet.
But if the situation escalated and powerful beings above the Innate Realm appeared,
After returning home, Lu Qing activated the array formations around the house, declining all visitors.
Indeed, during this period of time, in addition to setting up array formations around the village.
Lu Qing also set up array formations in his own home.
After all, as a cultivator, he needed to seclude himself for cultivation from time to time, and it wasn't possible to go to the Jade Transformation Cave every time.
Long periods of seclusion were fine, but for occasional short seclusions, he was still accustomed to doing it at home.
So, he decided to set up a small array formation at home to avoid disturbances during seclusion.
The villagers were also used to it.
Whenever they saw the house surrounded by mist, they knew he was in seclusion and wouldn't disturb him.
Although this seclusion was important, thinking of the two mysterious individuals who might arrive at an unknown time, Lu Qing decided not to leave the village and to seclude himself at home.
After activating the array formation, Lu Qing sat cross-legged, and a black jade flask appeared in his hand.
A 'Flame' figure appeared beside Lu Qing, looking at the jade flask in his hand with a surprised expression.
It remembered that this jade flask contained the spirit liquid from that spiritual pool.
"Young Master, what are you going to do with this?"
"The spirit liquid in this flask contains the essence of the Five Elements and is the best spirit elixir for me. It can help me increase my cultivation."
"Senior Flame, please help me with the guardianship. This seclusion is very important to me!"
The Quintessence Lotus was an ultimate spiritual medicine, and its grade was too high for the current Lu Qing to refine.
On the contrary, the Five Elements Spirit Liquid was very beneficial to him at present.
After speaking, Lu Qing opened the black jade flask, and a dense vitality of the Five Elements immediately emanated from the flask.
It attracted the Five Elements Gourd inside his body, which became restless again.
Even Lu Qing's physical and mental state produced a yearning impulse.
This time, he no longer suppressed the yearning in his heart.
As his mind moved, the spirit liquid surged out of the black jade flask, and at the same time, the Five Elements Gourd flew out of his body and swallowed all the spirit liquid in one gulp!
