Chapter 215: Counterfeit Locked Treasure Box
Chapter 214 – Counterproductive Locked Treasure Box
Grand Xuan.
Following the location in his memory, he searched for Yi Xing’s Tomb, and Li Fan didn’t have to put in much effort to break open the mechanism.
After casually laying down formations around the area to prevent anyone from mistakenly entering.
Li Fan once again entered the Tomb of Yi Xing after many years.
Passing through the long tomb passage, he came to the depths of the tomb.
The pearl overhead was as brilliant as a star, and the sea of clouds filled the mountain peaks beneath his feet.
At a glance, one could see the traces of the formation.
“This formation here, it can actually support thousands of years while being cut off from the aura?”
Li Fan could not help but be a little surprised, and at that moment, he examined it in detail.
It didn’t take long to figure out the reason.
“Using the pearl as a star.”
“Use the mud dug out of the famous mountains in all parts of Daxuan as the peaks.”
“Substituting reality for emptiness, minimizing the amount of formation consumption required.”
“Moreover, this unknown spell formation has completely discarded functions such as attack and defense. The only use for it is ……”
“A blindfold ……”
In Li Fan’s senses, the golden wisp of grass house where Yi Xing’s spirit position was located was clearly the source of aura that supported the operation of the formation.
Li Fan flew to the top of the mountain here, found the node of the formation vein, and stepped on it.
“Break!”
The mountain peak was like a broken bubble, dissipating in a flash.
A black hollow appeared beneath the Golden Wisp Grass House.
Li Fan followed the passageway that appeared and came underneath the illusionary formation.
This was where Yi Xing’s real tomb was located.
The tomb was decorated like an ordinary bookstore.
In front of a long vermilion table, there was a skeleton lying on its back.
Beside it, a faint candle flame was still pulsing weakly.
On the long table, around the skeleton, and even on the floor of the entire study.
Paper densely written with mysterious symbols was scattered everywhere.
Li Fan picked up one and looked at it for a while, failing to see what Yi Xing had written in his lifetime.
Putting all these papers away casually, he searched for a few more moments.
To Li Fan’s disappointment, no Dao Transformation Stone was found.
There was nothing else here other than Yi Xing’s skeleton and the room full of papers.
“Can’t it be that this still isn’t a real tomb yet?”
“Although Yi Xing was only an outer disciple, but at least he was in charge of relocating mortals. The status shouldn’t be too low.”
“It shouldn’t be this shabby.”
Undeterred, Li Fan carefully searched this place again inside and out.
But the results were unchanged.
After pondering for a moment, he put away the long table and the fire candle on the table, along with Yi Xing’s skeleton.
In order to avoid any omissions, Li Fan simply unleashed the Cong Yun Yi Sword, completely destroying the entire room with brute force.
The vastness of the Cong Yun Sword’s power completely exposed the geological structure all around the study house.
To Li Fan’s disappointment, this was indeed the lowest level of the tomb.
Further down, there were only rocks and soil left.
“It seems like it really was a wasted trip.” Li Fan shook his head helplessly.
He came with high expectations and returned defeated.
After reentering the Xuan Huang Realm, Li Fan cremated Yi Xing’s bones and dispersed them with the wind.
Afterward, he returned to the Heavenly Xuan Mirror.
“If there is anything left out, it should be among the remaining three items.”
Li Fan pondered for a moment, and under the pretext of selling his assets, he handed over the long table, the fire candle, and one of the papers, to the Heavenly Xuan Mirror for appraisal.
The first two were some unusual items.
The silver fir mahogany table and the sea whale long light candle added up to only thirty contribution points.
But those papers filled with strange symbols were not ordinary papers anymore.
“Heaven Locked Treasure Box (Remnant), one point of contribution.”
Li Fan’s eyes flashed, “There really is another mystery.” Without choosing to sell it, Li Fan searched for some information about the Heaven Locked Treasure Box.
As the name implied, a Heaven Locking Treasure Box was a storage box that had been blocked off through some special way.
Only by completing the decryption set by the owner of the box could the box be opened.
But even after knowing that there was a secret inside, Li Fan was at a loss when faced with the tens of thousands of papers full of ghostly symbols.
Fortunately, Li Fan was not just a person.
He didn’t know.
In the huge Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, there must be someone who knew.
As usual, he searched for keywords in the Tianxuan Mirror.
Eliminating countless irrelevant and cluttered information one by one, Li Fan searched for a long time and finally found a clue in an article describing several recreational activities carried out by ancient Immortal Cultivators in their leisure time.
“Reverse robbery?”
Li Fan had a mental pang and carefully browsed through it.
The article described that in the ancient times, there were cultivators who believed that the world roughly developed from order to disorder.
From the initial [Origin], then the Yin and Yang, then the five elements of heaven and earth, then everything in the world.
Order was being lost and chaos was accumulating.
Until the chaos completely overpowers the order, it will explode with the power to break everything.
Returning heaven and earth to chaos.
This is called [Hijacking].
And the Reverse Hijacking is a game of restoring chaos to order and disorder to order.
This kind of game had extremely high requirements and exercising abilities for the cultivator’s divine sense and diffraction calculation abilities.
It was generally popular in formation clans and derivation clans.
It sounded complicated, but it was actually very easy to understand.
Take the tens of thousands of pieces of paper that Li Fan found in Yi Xing’s tomb as an example.
These papers, initially, had a fixed order.
All Li Fan had to do was to revert this pile of disorganized papers back to their original fixed order.
It should be very simple,……
Thinking so, Li Fan took out all the papers from his storage ring.
Intending to try it out.
But immediately after, he realized something was wrong and his face darkened.
Simple as hell!
“Here is a total of …… “Divine sense swept, and a moment later, Li Fan, who had gotten the answer, his face became more and more ugly.
“Forty-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine pieces of paper.”
“If there are no other hints, just simply going to repeat the attempts one by one ……”
Li Fan felt a wave of dizziness just thinking about it.
“Even if nothing else is done in this life, don’t even think about cracking and restoring it!”
Li Fan picked up a piece of paper and observed what was written on it.
“The seemingly meaningless symbols on it should be the hints.”
“Unfortunately, it’s equivalent to some sort of pre-agreed key that only the person involved knows well.”
“Perhaps it was the one that was passed down for general use among the disciples of the Tai Yan Sect back then?”
Not being able to discern any names, Li Fan was somewhat helpless.
“I wonder, the Dao Transformation Stone that Jiao Xiuyuan found at that time, did it also go through such encryption?”
Li Fan couldn’t help but want to use his doppelganger, to ask the truth.
However, immediately afterward, he had a flash of light, but he temporarily gave up this idea.
“…… is nothing more than a password with a bit more digits.”
“I can’t, but this one sure can.”
Li Fan coughed lightly and smiled as he asked about Tian Xuan Mirror, whether it provided a cracking service on his behalf.
Tian Xuan Mirror was silent for a moment and gave an affirmative answer.
However, the cost was charged according to the difficulty of cracking.
After inquiring, it was learned that it was only 20,000 to 30,000 contribution degrees at most.
Li Fan, who was rich and generous, could not help but feel relieved and bold enough to let Tian Xuan Mirror crack it.
