Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 153 Exit
Holding the small, exquisite brain within a sphere, Ye Lu slowly walked down from the platform.

He looked at the corpse Pei Xia was carrying, but did not hand it over immediately.

Pei Xia sneered and disdainfully tossed aside the square-faced man's corpse before Ye Lu would hand over what he was holding.

Pei Xia held the small crystal ball with three fingers, watching the brain slowly float in the viscous liquid as it was shaken.

A "miracle machine" is undeniably precious.

It should be understood that the Su Shi school does not inherently have any mysterious bottlenecks. Mastering those supernatural abilities and formations is a breakthrough. This is also a unique way of respecting knowledge, the most difficult foundation for cultivation to accumulate.

In other words, if this divine brain falls into the hands of a sixth-realm master, he can immediately become a seventh-realm master.

The Seven Realms are a legend in the martial arts world.

However, while seventh-level masters are extremely rare, there are still a few scattered throughout the Nine Provinces. For example, the Five Binding Array under King Xiao is clearly the work of a seventh-level master.

Is it really worth it for so many ancient masters to gather in this underground palace and exhaust their lives to forge a divine machine?
Pei Xia felt something was amiss, so he clenched the brain inside the sphere in his palm, quickly walked up to the platform, and personally examined the heavy and magnificent stone coffin.

Unfortunately, there were no additional mechanisms inside the stone coffin. Pei Xia searched carefully but only found a relatively intact square stone slab next to the broken bones.

The stone slab was laid next to the skull, and its color and texture were almost identical to those of the stone coffin, which is why Ye Lu overlooked it.

Pei Xia carefully lifted the stone slab, and there was a finely engraved mural on it.

The central Nine Provinces, the Spirit Sea in the upper left corner, the Qi Track in the upper right corner, the military force in the lower left corner... This is the giant mural that Pei Xia and Ye Lu saw on their way here.

However, at the time, the lower right corner of the mural was already damaged and missing.

But this piece right now is intact!
Pei Xia's gaze shifted, landing on the lower right corner of the stone slab...

It was a smooth corner, completely empty.

No.

Contrary to Pei Xia's initial guess, there was no calamity pig there, nor any other indescribable existence; there was nothing there.

The corner representing the power of the Master is empty.

The stone slab itself had no value. Pei Xia thought for a moment, then put it back, with great effort.

As the only person here who looked to be in good spirits, Pei Xia silently took the divine machine into his possession. After tidying it up a bit, he counted his gains.

An exceptionally precious external brain, a demon marrow from a Heavenly Consciousness Realm demon beast, five demon crystals, and more than a dozen inner cores.

He walked back to the demon beast's side and tapped the spider's hard carapace. This thing could perfectly withstand the attack of a Transformation Realm cultivator without the help of spiritual power, so it was a treasure. With a little refinement, it would definitely be a top-grade magic weapon.

It's just too big.

Pei Xia thought for a moment and looked at Han Youzhi beside her.

She sat on the ground, still panting heavily. She watched Pei Xia and Ye Lu's conversation and realized that something was wrong with the man, but at this moment, she didn't even have the strength to speak.

As Pei Xia approached step by step, all she could do, besides keeping her eyes alert, was try to activate her spiritual energy, while instinctively curling up her surprisingly round and long legs.

Pei Xia looked at the large expanse of skin exposed beneath her tattered clothes, along with the bloodstains and wounds on it.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a porcelain bottle, tossing it to her: "Healing and nourishing pills."

The medicine bottle was thrown at her head with a thud, making her eyes close and then fall down her face into her deep, snowy cleavage.

Han looked at him with confusion. Hadn't his personality changed drastically?
Then Pei Xia said coldly, "Once you've recovered some strength, peel off the shell of this monster and take it with you. I need it."

Ye Lu would definitely have to carry his superior's body, and Lu Li, being a mere vegetarian, could only leave this kind of rough work to Han Youzhi.

After Pei Xia finished speaking, she seemed to remember that this woman wasn't very smart, and clicked her tongue in disdain: "Hurry up." This made Han Youzhi laugh in exasperation.

She was about to ask Pei Xia how big her face was, but as soon as she opened her mouth, a surge of anger welled up inside her, forcibly suppressing her words.

Damn it, I'll let you pretend for a while, let me calm down.

Although Han Youzhi's phoenix eyes were fierce, her silence meant she had tacitly agreed.

"You know the truth."

As Pei Xia spoke, she walked past Han Youzhi and casually patted Han Youzhi's head.

This time, Han Youzhi couldn't hold back and was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.

However, Pei Xia had already turned around and walked towards the other side of the hall.

Because of the existence of the spider monster, whether it was Han Youzhi in the earliest days or Pei Xia and others later, they only moved around near the entrance on this side. Only when Ye Lu was exploring the way did he go to the other side.

As Pei Xia approached, she slowly discovered that there was another stone door on the wall on the other side of the hall.

The stone door was enormous, and the array engraved on it was even more massive. Pei Xia tried to pour spiritual power into it, and even with the immense power of his inner cauldron, it took him almost the time it takes to brew a cup of tea to illuminate all the array patterns.

The heavy stone door emitted a heart-stopping scraping sound, and the vibrations, like a slight earthquake, came from beneath everyone's feet.

When it was quiet again, the stone gate was open.

Pei Xia lit up the spiritual light, and where the light reached, another empty cave was revealed.

The difference is that there is a metal pedestal on the floor of this cave.

The circular platform was several meters wide. When Pei Xia approached it, he could see the layers of array patterns on it through the dust.

This is... a teleportation array?

Teleportation techniques are very difficult to master. The Snow Swallow Sect has a pair of teleportation artifacts, which are used as tokens of the sect leader to enter and exit the secret realm. Only one person can use them at a time.

Teleportation arrays are more flexible in terms of materials, as they don't need to be built in a tiny space, so they can usually teleport more people and things. However, they must be fixed in place.

Judging from the age of the underground palace, this formation is probably quite ancient. Pei Xia swept away the dust with his sleeve, carefully examined it, and then revealed a sneer.

Pei Xia had witnessed the simplicity of the formations in this underground palace several times along the way. With the same effect, a sixth-realm master only needed a formation the size of a washbasin, while they wished they could cover the entire stone door with their formations.

This teleportation array was also something that those ancient masters couldn't even find a suitable way to open and close.

In the end, they actually chose to omit one part, deliberately drawing a piece missing from the complex array pattern, so that the Su Shi could fill it in when needed.

No wonder that spider demon beast, despite possessing intelligence comparable to humans and an exceptionally high level of cultivation, was still unable to leave this underground palace.

It's fortunate that it was them; if it had been a few pure martial artists, they would probably have been trapped here for life.

Having found the exit, Pei Xia relaxed a bit.

However, upon further reflection, she realized that once she left the underground palace, the environment she would face would become more complex, especially with Han Youzhi. Once outside, the spiritual energy would no longer be so thin, and she would be able to recover her combat strength in a few days.

This woman's cultivation level is quite good; taking her in as a servant would save me a lot of trouble.

Perhaps we should still place a restriction on her; I recall that Weishan seems to have a similar method…

As Pei Xia was thinking, her vision suddenly blurred for a moment.

The flames that had been burning in his eyes began to flicker uneasily.
