163: Energy Gathering Formation

Li De also nodded slightly and stepped forward.

Yun Li had absolute trust in Lu Xingchen, so she naturally wouldn't say much.

Wan Chen's Face darkened when he saw himself being ignored, but he didn't dare to provoke public anger and affect everyone's ability to break the Formation.

Under Lu Xingchen's guidance, the five people simultaneously attacked the weak points of the guardian Spirit Formation.

Cracks appeared on the Spirit Formation, and it eventually shattered.

Seeing that the Spirit Formation was truly broken, everyone's Faces lit up with joy.

"I didn't expect Brother Lu to have some real skill. To break a Seventh-Grade Spirit Formation with the strength of a Fifth-Grade Spirit Array Master is truly incredible!"

"I said long ago that Brother Lu would definitely succeed. Do you believe it now?"

"Oh, please, you were the one who complained the most back then!"

"No matter what, we finally got our entry ticket and don't have to leave in disgrace."

Yun Li patted Lu Xingchen's shoulder and said with a smile, "Not only is your Martial Dao Cultivation fast, but you also Cultivate Alchemy and Spirit Formations. Lu Xingchen, just how many secrets do you have?"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "There's plenty of time. We'll have ample opportunity to communicate deeply in the future. You'll learn more of my secrets then."

Immediately, Lu Xingchen looked at the stone door and said in a deep voice, "I've only opened a gap in this guardian Spirit Formation; it will automatically repair itself in a moment. While the Spirit Formation hasn't repaired, let's quickly enter the Immortal Cave!"

Yun Li nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "A Martial Ancestor Immortal Cave holds both opportunities and dangers. Everyone, be careful!"

With that, Yun Li was the first to push open the stone door and walk in.

Lu Xingchen followed second.

The remaining people also vied to enter the Immortal Cave.

As Lu Xingchen stepped into the Immortal Cave, a white light flashed, and he fell from a great height.

However, he was already a Martial King expert, so controlling his body was a small matter. With a somersault, he landed calmly.

He looked around, but there was no one in sight.

Lu Xingchen frowned, but he didn't panic.

Clearly, the Cave Mansion Owner had set up a Teleportation Array at the entrance, which would teleport intruders to different parts of the Immortal Cave.

It was the same when he entered the Chuyuan Secret Realm last time.

Now everyone was scattered, adding much uncertainty to this Immortal Cave trip.

If many people met few, it would be interesting.

But Lu Xingchen had no way to deal with it and could only take it one step at a time.

Based on the changes in the surrounding environment, Lu Xingchen walked deeper into the Immortal Cave.

Although the teleportation locations were different, everyone came for treasure hunting and would definitely go deeper. They would naturally meet then.

An hour later, Lu Xingchen discovered a large building.

From its appearance, it seemed to be a Library Pavilion.

His heart immediately filled with joy.

The Library Pavilion was where the Cave Mansion Owner stored Martial Skills. Any scroll of Martial Skills left by a Martial Ancestor Expert could greatly increase his strength!

But when Lu Xingchen approached the Library Pavilion, he found two people already outside.

One was Lu Xingchen's old acquaintance, Yun Yun, the one who had once said she wanted to recruit him as her consort.

The other was Li Hang, a Prodigy from the Li family in the Imperial City of Liyun Kingdom, a One-Star Martial Emperor.

At this moment, Li Hang's clothes were a bit disheveled, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, making him look quite disheveled.

Lu Xingchen immediately frowned.

It was normal for the Library Pavilion to have a protection mechanism, but the fact that Li Hang, a Martial Emperor expert, couldn't get in, indicated that this protection mechanism was a bit difficult to deal with.

Seeing Lu Xingchen appear, Yun Yun smiled and said softly, "Lu Xingchen, long time no see."

Hearing this, Li Hang was slightly startled.

"Eldest Princess, did you two know each other before?"

Lu Xingchen felt a bit awkward, but he still braced himself and said, "Greetings, Eldest Princess. Are you two… in trouble?"

Li Hang said in a deep voice, "Can't you tell? We want to enter the Library Pavilion to find treasures, but we're blocked."

Lu Xingchen said with a smile, "Could you tell me about the protection mechanism here? I also want to go in and have a look; maybe we can cooperate."

Li Hang said in a deep voice, "Lu Xingchen, outside the Immortal Cave just now, you said you were a newly promoted Inner Sect Disciple of Cangxuan Sect. To be direct, what Realm are you now?"

Lu Xingchen said indifferently, "Seven-Star Martial King."

Li Hang slowly shook his head.

"Then it seems we have no need to cooperate. The Eldest Princess is also a Seven-Star Martial King, and she's much stronger than others at the same Realm, yet she can't help me. One more of you won't make a difference."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "My strength cannot be reflected by my Realm. Li Hang, just get to the point!"

Hearing this, Li Hang frowned.

Just as he was about to reprimand Lu Xingchen, Yun Yun spoke, "Big Brother Li Hang, Lu Xingchen really has that strength. He might be able to help us. Let him try!"

Li Hang said in a deep voice, "Eldest Princess, why do you think so highly of him? If I try again, I might get injured again."

Yun Yun patted Li Hang's shoulder and said with a smile, "Big Brother Li Hang, just give me some Face!"

Li Hang nodded slightly.

"Since that's the case, I'll get straight to the point!"

"Lu Xingchen, look ahead. There are five Puppets guarding outside the Library Pavilion, and their Realm are all Ten-Star Martial King. If it were just that, I could defeat them one by one."

"But they have a Formation on them that can gather the power of the five Puppets, raising one Puppet's Realm to Two-Star Martial Emperor, while the other four Puppets' Realm will drop."

"I was just caught off guard and took a punch from the Two-Star Martial Emperor, suffering a minor injury."

Lu Xingchen pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "That's interesting, but it's not without a solution. You go attract their attention and let them activate the Formation. I'll attack the Puppets whose Realm has dropped and defeat them one by one."

Li Hang nodded slightly.

"You're quite clever, reacting so quickly. But there's a problem now: even with their Realm dropped, the Puppets still have the strength of an Eight-Star Martial King. You must destroy them in one move, otherwise, they can transfer the Martial Emperor's power."

"Can you, a Seven-Star Martial King, do that?"

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "No problem."

Hearing this, Li Hang frowned again.

"Although I think you're bluffing, since the Eldest Princess has already spoken, I'll cooperate with you once. If you can't instantly kill the Puppet, I will immediately withdraw, and your life or death will be none of my concern then."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "Understood."

Seeing Lu Xingchen's calm demeanor, Li Hang felt a little doubtful.

Could this kid really have some skill?

However, fighting above one's Realm was not so easy, and it also required an instant kill.

Li Hang didn't waste any more words and once again walked into the defensive range of the five Puppets.

Lu Xingchen stood behind him, took out his dawn bow, and drew an arrow.

The five Ten-Star Martial King Realm Puppets immediately surrounded the two, emitting silver-white light, and the Formation activated.
