32: Ninety-nine Rebirth Formation
During the search, Su Fan also obtained a full six hundred Earth-Grade Spirit Gathering Pills.
Earth-Grade Spirit Gathering Pills are not common Medicinal Pills; even someone as wealthy as Chu Qinglian only had a little over a hundred in her storage ring.
The last time she gave Su Fan ten, she was already pained by it.
Yet here, there were a full six hundred.
As expected of Linglang Heaven, a top-tier Sect in Lei Province and the foremost auction house in Lei Province, the number of treasures it possessed far exceeded imagination.
Just a single branch alone had assets surpassing the entire Qingyang Sword Sect, and arguably, most first-rate Sects in Lei Province.
When Su Fan put the last treasure into his ring, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
From a Peak Master who had fallen from his Realm and was penniless, to now being as rich as a nation and surpassing the entire Qingyang Sword Sect.
And all of this had happened in less than a week.
"Let's go. I wonder how Ling'er and Wuchen are doing."
Mentioning the two, Chu Qinglian couldn't help but glance at Su Fan, displaying a helpless expression.
He only remembered his Disciples after finishing his own business.
If it weren't for these two Disciples being powerful Prodigies, their grave mounds would probably be overgrown by now.
Su Fan had thoroughly looted the underground space, his sword still pressed against the Gray-robed Old Man's neck.
"When we go out, don't even think about playing any tricks on me!"
Just as Su Fan finished speaking.
A strange and crazed smile suddenly appeared at the corner of the Gray-robed Old Man's mouth.
His gray robe suddenly glowed with dazzling gray light, like an evil spirit breaking free, helping him forcefully escape from the suppression of the Sword Intent.
However, the Gray-robed Old Man did not attack Su Fan.
Instead, he formed a sword with two fingers and stabbed the White-robed Old Man beside him!
"Die!"
The terrifying strength of a Spirit Sea Realm Sixth Level expert might be slightly weaker in front of Su Fan and Chu Qinglian, but it was countless times stronger than the White-robed Old Man beside him!
The gap between them was like the difference between Zhao Wuji, the Peak Master of Discipline Peak, and Vice Sect Leader Vice Sect Leader Zhao Yan.
One sword strike from Vice Sect Leader Zhao Yan could turn Zhao Wuji into ashes!
The White-robed Old Man clearly hadn't expected that, as fellow guardians of the pavilion, he would be ambushed by his companion.
He was still bound by Chu Qinglian's Immortal Binding Rope, completely defenseless against this sword strike.
Die!
The unnamed old man, a Spirit Sea Realm Third Level expert, once a renowned Prodigy in Lei Province, now died in this secret space a hundred meters underground.
Linglang Heaven's treasure vault ultimately became the White-robed Old Man's final resting place.
"Ninety-Nine Level Endless Vitality Formation, activate!"
After slaying the White-robed Old Man, the last pavilion guardian, the Gray-robed Old Man, sacrificed the White-robed Old Man's corpse to the Formation in this place.
Using the essence blood, Physical Body, inner core, and all Spirit Qi of a Spirit Sea Realm Third Level expert as a catalyst, he activated this Endless Vitality Formation.
He himself, however, seemed to walk into a lake, submerging into the ground and disappearing.
Immediately after, the Gray-robed Old Man's laughter came from all directions.
"Hahaha! You foolish Sword Cultivators from Jing Province, do you really think Linglang Heaven's treasure vault is a place you can enter and leave as you please?"
"You should have thought, in the past decades, even centuries, how many powerful Sects lurking in the shadows have tried to seize treasures, but has anyone succeeded?"
"As the largest auction house in Lei Province, possessing more than a dozen Heaven-Grade treasures, how could it not have a powerful Formation guarding it?"
The Endless Vitality Formation, like countless chains, laid down layers of great locks around the underground space.
The great locks interconnected, forming a total of ninety-nine linked Formations, firmly sealing the entire underground space.
"This Formation is called the Ninety-Nine Level Endless Vitality Formation. It is the most top-tier defensive Formation among Earth-Grade treasures. Although it has no offensive power, it elevates defensive power to the extreme."
"Below the Transformation God Realm, no one can leave this Formation!"
Chu Qinglian's heart sank.
Her knowledge was slightly superior to Su Fan's, so she had naturally heard of the Ninety-Nine Level Endless Vitality Formation.
This Formation was extremely famous. It was said to have once trapped a Peak Spirit Sea Realm expert for a full year, isolating Spiritual Qi, sound, and even all light.
It trapped and killed him in endless darkness until his mind collapsed.
With Chu Qinglian by his side in this vast darkness, Su Fan might not fall into collapse, but after a long time, it would definitely not be easy.
"You and I, I'm afraid we can't get out of this Formation."
Even if Su Fan's strength was unfathomable, it was absolutely impossible for him to exceed the Peak Spirit Sea Realm.
Within the Spirit Sea Realm, even a Sixth Level, Seventh Level, or Eighth Level already represented an immense gap.
Chu Qinglian guessed that Su Fan's strength must be above the Sixth Level, possibly even reaching the Eighth Level.
But there was still an immense gap to the Transformation God Realm.
This gap could absolutely not be compensated by any talent or Divine Ability.
What's more, Su Fan's listed Realm was only a mere Core Formation Realm!
"If no one comes to rescue us, perhaps you and I will have to live here for the rest of our lives."
Su Fan joked.
His tone showed no tension, but rather a hint of eager excitement.
After obtaining the terrifying ninety-one Dao patterns, Su Fan had never truly unleashed his full power.
He knew his strength far surpassed Chu Qinglian's, but that was all he knew.
He had never tested the upper limit of his strength, and today might be a good opportunity.
"That's not necessarily true. If Wuchen and Ling'er knew about this, they would definitely return to the Sect for help. At that time, we would only need the Sect Master to pay a certain price for a transaction, and we could be rescued."
In the darkness, Su Fan shook his head.
The two of them had completely offended Linglang Heaven. Facing such a top-tier Sect, the Qingyang Sword Sect would not risk offending Linglang Heaven to rescue them.
Not escaping meant only death.
"It's better to rely on oneself than on others. I want to see just how powerful this Endless Vitality Formation can be."
Su Fan gripped his Cold Iron Sword tightly, his Sword Intent surging wildly.
Under the enhancement of the ninety-one Dao patterns, this Sword Intent was a hundred times more ferocious than an ordinary person's illusory Sword Intent!
The Sword Intent seemed to materialize, almost displaying the sharp aura of a Divine Weapon.
This Sword Intent, powerful enough to instantly kill a Spirit Gathering Realm Sixth Level expert, was swung upwards by Su Fan!
The sword light cut through the darkness, and the Formation burned fiercely.
A terrifying gash was cut open, but it slowly closed after the intense burning.
Su Fan frowned.
His full-power strike had only broken through twenty layers of the Formation.
Moreover, the cracks in these twenty layers were slowly closing, and before long, all ninety-nine layers of the Formation barrier had returned to their original state.
This Formation had exceeded the limits of his strength.
This truly piqued Su Fan's interest!
As expected of a Formation that had once trapped and killed a Peak Spirit Sea Realm expert.
Without bringing out some trump cards, it probably wouldn't work!
