22: Twin Calamities

Gu Changan was walking along when he suddenly discovered a Cultivator walking towards him.

The attire of the person opposite him was exactly the same as his own.

Gu Changan immediately looked down at himself, comparing his own attire with the other party's.

As it turned out, the Cultivator opposite him also began to look down at their own clothes.

Upon seeing the other party mirror his actions, Gu Changan roughly analyzed that this Formation must have copied him, and then made him fight himself!

He just didn't know if it had attack capabilities.

But thinking about it, that seemed impossible; what would be the use of a defensive Formation copying a fake?

It seemed certain that it had attack capabilities; he just didn't know how many layers of his own strength it possessed.

Thinking of this, Gu Changan smiled. With his Qi Refining Level 2 strength, why was he overthinking?

He could only pray that the other party couldn't copy his items, like those explosion talismans.

If the other party had the same items he did, how could he fight?

Gu Changan tentatively cast a Sword Qi Technique, and a streak of Sword Qi shot straight towards the other party's chest.

Who knew that the replica opposite him would also cast a Sword Qi Technique? The two streaks of Sword Qi collided in mid-air and annihilated each other.

Gu Changan was thoughtful. It could copy to this extent?

Then what if he didn't fight it?

Would that break this Formation?

Gu Changan waited for about a quarter of an hour, and the other party just stood there quietly.

Gu Changan lost his temper and took out a Fireball Technique Talisman, throwing it at the other party.

Who knew that the other party would also throw a Fireball Technique back.

Gu Changan understood a bit; the other party probably didn't have real Talismans, but just simulated the effect of the Fireball Technique through the Formation.

Moreover, since the other party was copied by the Formation, all consumption was replenished by the Formation.

It was impossible for him to exhaust the Spiritual Qi of the Formation!

He had to think of other methods!

Gu Changan began to think, what was something he had that the other party didn't?

The first thing he thought of was the treasure gathering basin. The treasure gathering basin might be an Innate Spirit Treasure, or perhaps a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure.

The Formation here could not possibly copy an Innate Spirit Treasure!

But it didn't seem useful either?

The treasure gathering basin had no offensive capabilities, should he just hold it in his hand and smash the other party with it?

Gu Changan casually took out the treasure gathering basin, and as it turned out, the Formation really couldn't handle it.

The replica opposite him also took out a treasure gathering basin with its right hand, but that treasure gathering basin began to flicker continuously.

It seemed like it lacked sufficient Spiritual Qi; it simply wasn't enough to copy the treasure gathering basin.

Gu Changan first cast an Earth Shield Technique on himself.

Then, seizing the opportunity, he sent one Sword Qi Technique after another towards the opposite side.

The other party was immediately overwhelmed and became full of openings.

Gu Changan held the treasure gathering basin in one hand and continuously cast Sword Qi Techniques with the other.

He made the replica opposite him endure the beating, and at this moment, some parts of the replica began to become transparent.

Like its legs, which would become transparent from time to time.

Gu Changan saw hope. Through his unremitting efforts, after attacking for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

The replica opposite him dissipated directly, and the entire Formation vanished.

Gu Changan returned to the original Golden Core Stage Immortal Cave.

At this time, Luo Li also woke up.

It seemed that after their unremitting efforts, the consumption of the Formation finally reached a certain threshold.

Causing the entire Formation to shatter.

At this moment, the entire appearance of the 4th floor appeared before the two of them.

The 4th floor was entirely a living space for a Golden Core Stage Cultivator.

He saw a golden core corpse remains on the bed, with yellow Treasure Qi attached to it.

Then, in the room, there was only one table, one bed, and one Formation.

There were 4 Formation Flags in the four corners of the room, and a Formation Plate in the middle.

On the table were a few books and an incense burner.

Gu Changan was a bit nervous: "Fairy, what did you encounter just now?"

"And then you triggered the Formation?"

Luo Li was a bit bewildered: "No! I just walked forward two steps and felt a Formation strike."

"I was in the Formation, fighting back and forth with my replica, and suddenly the other side ran out of Spiritual Qi!"

"Next, we both came out!"

Gu Changan nodded: "That's good, we didn't trigger the Formation!"

"It seems there was already a defensive Formation here!"

Gu Changan stretched out his hand: "Fairy, please!"

Luo Li also knew Gu Changan's character, so she stopped being polite with him.

She stepped forward and first looked at the books on the table.

"Detailed Explanation of Formations", "Principles of Formations", "Basic Formations"

Luo Li flipped through them casually and lost interest.

Although Gu Changan wanted them, he didn't dare to express it.

Otherwise, as a Qi Refining level 2 Loose Cultivator, you still want to comprehend Formations?

Luo Li took out a few things from the golden core corpse remains.

A Storage Ring, two Storage Pouches, and two spirit beast pouches.

Sure enough, the two spirit beast pouches were empty; it seemed those Spirit Beasts had all died.

One of the two Storage Pouches stored some unknown Ore, as well as some miscellaneous items, all of which were relatively large objects.

The other Storage Pouch was filled with daily necessities and scattered bits and pieces.

The two's gazes involuntarily turned to the most important Storage Ring.

Through observation, it was only a few dozen square meters in size, but there were really a lot of good things inside.

Among them was a pile of Spirit Stones, probably two or three thousand.

Beside them were some bottles and jars, most likely some important Medicinal Pill.

As for Magic Treasure, there didn't seem to be any, only a dozen top-grade magic artifacts.

As for Cultivation Technique, there was one, the "Purple Sun Soul Refining Art". Judging by the name, could it be a Cultivation Technique for refining Divine Sense?

There were also two Formations, the "Mirror Shadow Heart-Slaying Formation", which should be the Formation on the 4th floor that copied the opponent.

The other one, "Purple Cloud Hidden Mountain Formation", should be the defensive Formation for the entire Golden Core Stage Immortal Cave outside.

Among these things, what Gu Changan wanted most were these Cultivation Techniques and Formations.

With these things, he could easily upgrade them into even more powerful items.

As for those Medicinal Pill, Magic Treasure, and Formation Flags, he didn't dare to hope for them.

Gu Changan looked at Luo Li and found that she was also looking at him.

"What do you want?"

Gu Changan asked back: "Are these things something I can hope for?"

"Do you want this golden core corpse remains?"

"If you don't want it, I'll take it away?"

Luo Li frowned a little: "What do you want this corpse for?"

Gu Changan explained: "To sell for Spirit Stones! What else?"

Luo Li waved her hand, and Gu Changan prepared to put away the golden core corpse remains.

He discovered that the clothes on the corpse seemed to be a defensive Magic Treasure.

If he just put them away, it would be inappropriate.

He could only point to the corpse and ask again: "The clothes on the corpse should be a Magic Treasure, right!"

"Do you not want this Magic Treasure?"

Luo Li frowned a little: "Do you want to wear a dead person's clothes?"

Gu Changan was anxious: "It's a Magic Treasure! Even if I don't wear it, I can sell it for money!"

Luo Li rolled her eyes at Gu Changan: "Money! Money! Money! All you know is money!"
