Ch 26: The Death Burial Feng Shui Formation
Master Li Hanzhou sat on a stone bench to the side, replaying in his mind where the problem lay with the Pill he had refined.
However, he had no clue; he had followed the steps one by one.
Even a Master Alchemist couldn’t find any fault with it.
Just as he was thinking, Yun Qianzhu’s voice suddenly came: “Martial Uncle, why are the chickens fighting?”
Hearing the voice, Li Hanzhou remembered that he had cast an Illusion on the chicken earlier and hadn’t dispelled it yet.
However, upon looking up, Li Hanzhou saw an astonishing sight.
The chicken was currently battling four other chickens, and was unusually fierce. Two chickens were clearly stronger than it, but were actually being beaten by it.
One against four!
With ease, it forced the four chickens to the defensive, and they even began to flee.
Li Hanzhou took a stride forward and grabbed one of the chickens.
Now, only the chicken that had eaten the Divine Strength Pill was left to battle the other three chickens.
As a result, the battle situation instantly reversed, and the three chickens teamed up to beat the one chicken to a pulp.
“No way?”
Li Hanzhou was surprised.
The description of the Divine Strength Pill stated that, half an hour after consuming it, one’s strength would surge, their strength would increase, enough to fight one against four.
Li Hanzhou originally thought this was a figure of speech, but the Pill he refined actually achieved this effect; it truly could achieve one against four.
But the flaws were also obvious.
Only against four.
One more, or one less, wouldn’t work.
This is too strange, right?
Are there such bizarre Pills?
To test, Li Hanzhou went to the mountains to catch several wild boars, and then used the same method to make the boars fight; the result was the same.
One against four, invincible.
One less opponent, and it would immediately take a beating.
With an uneasy heart, Li Hanzhou gave the Divine Strength Pill to Liu Dongyue.
“Martial Uncle actually refined it?” Liu Dongyue looked at the round Pill and couldn’t help but admire Li Hanzhou.
Martial Uncle is also an Alchemist?
But when Li Hanzhou told Liu Dongyue about the Pill’s characteristics, Liu Dongyue’s jaw dropped in shock.
The good news is that after eating it, one can fight one against four.
The bad news is that after eating it, one can only fight one against four.
“Forget it.”
Liu Dongyue didn’t pick at it anymore and put the Pill away, because he knew that even with a normal Divine Strength Pill, after consuming it, his strength would only surge slightly. In terms of cultivation level and skills, he still couldn’t compare with those disciples with stronger strength; his odds of winning were still not high.
This kind of Pill might really be able to help him turn defeat into victory.
“It’s just that, Martial Uncle, how did you refine such a strange Thing?”
Liu Dongyue couldn’t figure it out.
The next day, people from the Divine Mechanism Merchant Guild came, bringing Materials to renovate the Longevity Temple.
This made Shi Ming and the Little Fellow Yun Qianzhu very happy; the Longevity Temple hadn’t been this lively in a long time.
It was said to be renovation, but the Longevity Temple wasn’t actually dilapidated; it was just that over the years, no one had taken care of it. When the people from the Divine Mechanism Merchant Guild pulled out the weeds and cleaned the Longevity Temple from top to bottom, the Longevity Temple actually had a kind of antique beauty.
The Divine Mechanism Merchant Guild mainly delivered some Things that Li Hanzhou had purchased before.
Some furniture and the like.
Previously, the tables, chairs, and benches in the Longevity Temple had been sold by the original owner.
Now they were being replenished; they couldn’t let Approaching Persons not even have a place to sit, could they?
The rooms of the Disciples were also tidied up one by one, with new bedding and new quilts.
For Shi Ming and Yun Qianzhu, this was like celebrating the New Year; everything was new.
They hadn’t had such good days before.
Li Hanzhou was helping Liu Dongyue refine new Spirit Treasures in the room.
“Heaven is spiritual, Earth is spiritual, this time, don’t make any mistakes, just give me a normal Spirit Treasure, don’t add any messy Attributes,” Li Hanzhou muttered as he inscribed Runes.
By evening, Li Hanzhou finally finished making the Soul-Snatching Bell.
“Hum!”
The moment the Soul-Snatching Bell was completed, it burst forth with brilliant Golden Light.
“The color is right!”
Li Hanzhou’s eyes lit up. The instructions said so too: upon successful creation, it would emit Golden Light.
Before, Li Hanzhou was really worried that something unexpected would happen, that some black light or green light would appear, but now it seemed there was no problem.
“Ding-dong-dong…”
With a gentle shake, the Soul-Snatching Bell emitted a strange sound.
Li Hanzhou: “…”
A normal Soul-Snatching Bell, when shaken, should make a “ding-ling-ling” sound; what kind of “ding-dong-dong” sound is this?
What went wrong again?
Li Hanzhou wanted to find someone to try it on, but this Spirit Treasure attacked one’s Divine Soul, and his Divine Soul was too strong; if he wasn’t careful, he could easily annihilate someone’s Divine Soul.
“Forget it, let Liu Dongyue try it himself.”
“To avoid accidents, let’s draw another Vajra Talisman for this Child,” Li Hanzhou drew another Vajra Talisman.
Preparing to give them both to Liu Dongyue.
Li Hanzhou had just walked out the door when he saw an old tree in the courtyard. There were no Leaves left on it. It was a very tall parasol tree.
Li Hanzhou thought for a moment, then went back to the house and drew several Talismans, then went out, waved his hand, and nine Talismans flew out and fixed themselves in different positions on the parasol tree.
With a change of hand seals, Li Hanzhou calmly said, “Nine Yang Departing Fire Formation.”
As soon as the words fell, all the Talismans fell into the Ground and disappeared.
And after a moment, the radiance of the Great Formation under the parasol tree flickered, and the surrounding Air became warmer. Under this warm atmosphere, the parasol tree visibly began to sprout and grow Leaves…
This scene was a miracle.
Li Hanzhou nodded in satisfaction. His Small Courtyard seemed good, but it lacked some spirituality. Now, with this lush parasol tree here, it looked much more vibrant.
Just as Li Hanzhou was about to turn and leave, he suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look at the parasol tree behind him in surprise.
Something felt wrong.
Why did he feel that after using the Nine Yang Departing Fire Formation to revive the parasol tree, the Spiritual Power between Heaven and Earth seemed to have undergone a major fluctuation?
Was it his illusion?
Li Hanzhou subconsciously circulated the Northern Emperor Art.
“Indeed, it’s much smoother!” Li Hanzhou was startled. He walked around the parasol tree a few times, then pinched his fingers to calculate.
“So that’s it!”
Li Hanzhou suddenly realized!
He quickly rushed into the house and found a Map of the Profound Heaven Realm.
“Death Burial Feng Shui Formation!”
“This parasol tree was planted on the Feng Shui acupoint of the Profound Heaven Realm, equivalent to sealing the entire Heaven and Earth’s spiritual veins. No wonder the Disciples of the Longevity Temple couldn’t feel the Spiritual Power; so that’s it!”
