The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 1390

Chapter 1390: Chapter 1386: Splitting Forces into Two Paths Chapter 1390: Chapter 1386: Splitting Forces into Two Paths “Could it be a person in disguise? Or is the Mirage Demon here, too, perhaps having transformed into this figure?” Shen Luo thought to himself as he activated his Divine Sense to sweep over Dragon Tooth.

Contrary to his expectations, the person before his eyes was, indeed, the real Dragon Tooth.

Shen Luo was momentarily unable to fathom what was going on but did not show any outward sign of surprise, merely glancing indifferently at the trio before moving his gaze away.

On the contrary, Turtle Thousand Years and his companions seemed somewhat constrained in front of Shen Luo, as if fearing another attack from him, especially Dragon Tooth, whose gaze towards Shen Luo flickered with a mix of resentment and, even more so, fear.

“Brother Fu, it's great that you've arrived. We've just opened up the mountain peak, but the inner fire spirit's energy is extremely abundant; I'm afraid it's an eruption of the Earth Lung's Fire. What do we do now?” Hua Shao, unaware of the issue between Shen Luo and Turtle Thousand Years, saw Fu Gong appear and quickly asked.

Fu Gong was taken aback upon hearing this and turned to look inside the mountain peak, his expression changing as well.

“An eruption of the Earth Lung's Fire, such an event might not occur even once in a hundred years, and our luck is this terrible!” Fu Gong said with an ugly expression.

“Although the Earth Lung's Fire has erupted, we cannot retreat now. Black Daoist and I think we should continue with the plan as before. If it truly becomes impossible, we can always flee then. What does Friend Fu think?” Shen Luo turned to Fu Gong.

If those Red Flame Beasts were too formidable, he could simply take the Black Bear Demon and leap over the mountain peak from the top. With the Ten Thousand Poison Mixed Element Bead in hand, the mid-air Earth Lung Fire poison was not a concern.

“I didn't expect the two of you to be so valiant, truly shaming me. Since the two of you are so passionate, I, as the initiator of this treasure hunt, must naturally risk my life with you, gentlemen. Turtle Taoist Friend, what are your plans?” Fu Gong showed a surprised look, then agreed most generously before looking towards Turtle Thousand Years and his group.

Dragon Tooth and Qing Qing looked at Turtle Thousand Years, clearly regarding him as the leader.

Turtle Thousand Years was also shocked by the eruption of the fire spirit's energy within the mountain range, but since Shen Luo had taken the Earth Core Fire Lotus from him, it would not only be a wasted trip if he retreated now, but it would also delay an important matter later on.

“Since everyone wishes to continue, I am not one to shrink back in timidity and fear. Let's proceed with Friend Fu's plan,” Turtle Thousand Years gritted his teeth and agreed.

“Good, since everyone has unanimously decided to stay, then let's gamble this once. Hua Daoist, Xiao San, begin setting up the Six-in-One Heavenly Gate Array; arrange every one of the Array Eyes.” After Turtle Thousand Years agreed, Fu Gong turned his head and instructed Hua Shao.

Hua Shao wasted no words and took out a thick stack of white formation discs and flags, swiftly setting them up along the passageway.

Beams of white light appeared in the corridor, each containing countless divine patterns, extremely mysterious to behold, but as soon as these white light divine patterns appeared, they immediately merged into the void around them and vanished.

From the Eight Trigrams Flag, a series of formation flags was also released, assisting Hua Shao with the Array setup.

Shen Luo watched this scene and was secretly amazed; the Youngster within the Eight Trigrams Flag was only at the Nascent Soul Stage, and yet his efforts in setting up the Six-in-One Heavenly Gate Array seemed to be no slower than Hua Shao, a True Immortal existence.

“Arranging the Six-in-One Heavenly Gate Array will take some time, everyone please rest here for a while,” said Fu Gong to Shen Luo and the others.

The others quietly waited, with Turtle Thousand Years and his group taking out Spirit Recovery Pills and consuming them to recover their mana.

Shen Luo's mana was almost fully recovered. He sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, circulating the Sword Polishing Method from the Pure Yang Sword Technique, continuing to refine the fire spirit energy within the Pure Yang Sword.

“`

The red light on the Pure Yang Sword was somewhat unstable, flickering now and then, but as Shen Luo continuously executed the Sword Polishing Method, the red light on the sword body gradually calmed down and stopped fluctuating.

Soon, half a day passed, and the Six-in-One Heavenly Gate Array was finally set up. Waves of white light rippled endlessly, not only enveloping the passageway completely but also radiating hundreds of feet outwards.

Within the white light, one could vaguely see the phantom images of six stone platforms, composed of countless white spirit patterns, which looked to contain endless mysteries as they slowly rotated within the array.

“This Six-in-One Heavenly Gate Array is a great formation passed down from the Heavenly Realm, possessing the powers of illusion and confinement. It can even trap a Taiyi Existence within. If someone of that level were to fall into this array, they would find it difficult to escape in a short time,” Fu Gong introduced the great formation to Shen Luo and the others, unable to hide a hint of pride in his voice.

“Indeed, it's a mysterious formation, not inferior to the Five Elements Array of Mount Putuo,” mused the Black Bear Demon, who had an inherent interest in arrays, looking up and down the formation before him.

“Following our earlier discussion, we must split into two groups next, one to lure the Red Flame Beasts, and the other to seize the opportunity to pick the Earth Core Fire Lotus. How shall we divide ourselves?” Shen Luo didn't care much about the great formation and asked about the division of their forces.

“At least three people are needed to activate and operate the Six-in-One Heavenly Gate Array. Hua Shao, Xiao San, and Qing Qing Girl, you three stay here. The rest will come with me to scout the movements of those Red Flame Beasts and the Earth Core Fire Lotus. As for how to split our forces, we'll decide after we find out more about the Red Flame Beasts, how does that sound?” Fu Gong said after a brief contemplation.

Shen Luo and the others had no objections. Turtle Thousand Years, although reluctant to venture out and take risks, couldn't bring himself to ask to stay in front of everyone and reluctantly nodded his head.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Fu Gong took the lead and shot forward, followed by Shen Luo, the Black Bear Demon, Turtle Thousand Years, and Dragon Tooth.

Upon entering the interior of the Ring Mountain Range, intense flames surged towards them. Each of the cultivators summoned their magical treasures to protect their bodies, yet they still felt waves of pain, as if being slashed by blades of red-hot iron.

“This place is surging with the power of fire spirits, which greatly limits us monks. I have a Fire Avoidance Shield with decent fire resistance capabilities. Everyone, come inside,” said Fu Gong, noticing the pained expressions of the group and their unstable escape lights, as he hurriedly summoned a fiery red net-like shield to cover everyone.

The shield resembled an ordinary net made from silkworm thread with each thread emitting a faint red glow, but it managed to block out much of the surging fire spirit energy surrounding them, allowing everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.

“Friend Shen, your insight is remarkable. This Fire Avoidance Shield was indeed woven from the silk of Fire Candle Plate Silkworms. It doesn't possess much other ability, but it does have some effectiveness in warding off flames,” Fu Gong said with a chuckle.

Shen Luo nodded without saying much more, his curiosity about the origins of this Fu Gong piqued.

This person possessed high cultivation and appeared to have endless wealth; various treasures were brought out continuously, which was truly astounding.

“The nests of those Red Flame Beasts are below the Ring Mountain Range, and the Earth Core Fire Lotus is also there. We'll head over now. However, to avoid alarming them, we first need to hide our breaths so as not to be detected by the beasts. The Fire Avoidance Shield has some cloaking abilities, but it's not very sophisticated. Still, everyone should use their magic to hide their own presences,” Fu Gong paused before adding.

As he spoke, he gestured toward the Fire Avoidance Shield, and the red light on it flickered, quickly blending into the void, making Shen Luo and the others within the shield seemingly vanish from sight.

Knowing the seriousness of the situation, everyone cast their spells, and the aura of each person swiftly concealed.

As for Shen Luo, he naturally activated his Soft Smoke Luo Brocade Clothing, his breath disappearing without a trace, far surpassing the others in concealment.
