Chapter 796: Chapter 311: Fortune and Misfortune in a Moment, Making a Move
Fu Changsheng stood before the mysterious pattern, and with a sudden flick of his sleeve, a gust of wind roared up. The dust and gravel that covered the mysterious pattern were instantly swept clean.
After the gust, a circular stone wall nearly ten zhang wide appeared before him. Runes flickered on the stone wall, faintly exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.
Fu Changsheng stared at the runes on the stone wall, his brow slightly furrowed, a sense of déjà vu surged in his heart:
"A barrier?!!"
This barrier bore a striking resemblance to the secret realm barrier of Hanlin River.
Could there also be a mysterious secret realm hidden within Broken Bone Cliff?
This thought flashed through his mind, causing his heartbeat to quicken involuntarily.
Fu Changsheng locked his gaze tightly on the stone wall, trying to glean some understanding from the intricate array patterns. However, he was merely a layman with little knowledge of arrays, and after a long time, he could only see the immense complexity of these patterns, the mysteries of which were far beyond his comprehension:
"Looks like I’ll have to let Yaoyao take a look."
The secret realm barrier at Hanlin River, Yaoyao had spent ten years studying it, possessing a deep expertise in this area, possibly able to glimpse some insights.
Thinking of this, Fu Changsheng patted his storage bag, a flash of dawn light appeared, and he took out a communication jade talisman from it. His fingers moved like lightning, inputting several techniques into the jade talisman, which buzzed softly and trembled slightly. Fu Changsheng whispered a few words to the jade talisman, after which its spirit light slowly dimmed.
In the following days, Fu Changsheng came to the stone wall daily, examining it carefully, hoping to discover some new clues. Yet, the complex array patterns remained like a fog, leaving him at a loss.
After laboriously studying for several days.
A sudden, urgent buzzing came from his body.
Fu Changsheng felt a surge of joy, knowing that Yaoyao had arrived from the fief.
Yaoyao’s figure flickered and appeared before Fu Changsheng.
She keenly sensed the change in Fu Changsheng’s aura, her eyes suddenly brightened:
"Congratulations, Father, on breaking through to the second-layer of the Purple Mansion!"
After exchanging pleasantries.
Yaoyao’s gaze passed over Fu Changsheng, falling on the desiccated Black Water Pool behind him.
Upon seeing the mysterious stone wall runes at the pool’s bottom, Yaoyao’s eyes clearly revealed excitement. She patted her storage bag, and instantly, a thick book floated in mid-air. This book opened rapidly, densely packed with Yaoyao’s insights on the secret realm barrier of Hanlin River.
Yaoyao carefully compared the book’s contents with the runes on the stone wall. From the decomposition charts, the two barriers indeed had much in common. She then took out a detection array plate and began to study it intently.
After half a month, Yaoyao withdrew her dharma seal, a confident smile appearing on her face:
"Father, if I crack this barrier alone, it would take eight years. With two more tier three array masters, the time could be shortened by two years."
Saying this, Yaoyao looked at Fu Changsheng with eyes shining brightly: "Father, shall we open this barrier?" Excitement was hard to hide in her voice.
Fu Changsheng pondered, "If this barrier is like the secret realm of Hanlin River, once opened, I’m afraid the benefits won’t end up with our Fu Family."
"Father, shall we just stand by and watch Treasure Mountain without entering it?"
Yaoyao was somewhat unwilling.
Having completed her training in the Great Derivation Technique, and even reaching the Flesh Refining Realm with the Nine Heavens Star Technique, if there were Profound Yin Grass, she could open the Purple Mansion at this moment. Therefore, she felt not only curiosity but an urgency to open the barrier.
Fu Changsheng didn’t refuse outright but focused his thoughts on the sea of divine sense panel.
He knew well that behind this barrier, if a Demon God was sealed and opened, it would endanger their lives. So, to be safe, he decided to exchange for intel and assess the situation.
"Exchange for intel!" Fu Changsheng silently recited in his heart.
Buzz!
The panel vibrated, large amounts of yellow light flowing. Then lines of text presented themselves:
