Chapter 1490 It’s Too Late
"My dear grandson, I can't hold on for another half an hour. I'm afraid my old bones will be gone if it takes that long. I'll give you another ten minutes. You must take the things away no matter what." After saying this, Jing Daoxian closed the door again.
"You think I'm buying cabbage and you can take it away whenever I want. Is this something I can control?" Liuyun was a little depressed, but he had no other choice.
Laojuntai was shaking constantly, and the explosions outside were getting closer and closer. He also knew that Jing Daoxian could not hold on for much longer.
Gritting his teeth, Liuyun poured out all the pills in the bottle. There were eight pills in total. Before, Jing Daoxian asked him to feed him one pill every ten minutes, but now he didn't care and fed him one pill every minute.
Although he knew that such forced growth might not be effective and might even make all his previous efforts go to waste, at this point, he had no other choice but to give it a try.
Anyway, if he didn't try hard, he would definitely not be able to lift up the magic gourd in ten minutes, let alone the millstone below.
Liuyun was feeding the treasure gourd, while Zhou Wen was paying attention to the situation outside. The explosion sound had now reached the 23rd floor. Although the speed had slowed down a bit, it was only a little slower.
His estimate was similar to Jing Daoxian's. It would take at most ten minutes for the two disaster-level creatures to rush up.
Zhou Wen didn't have any psychological burden. Whether Jing Daoxian and the others could succeed or not had nothing to do with him. Anyway, Zhou Wen didn't dare to eat the pills that came out of the gourd.
Liuyun tried while feeding, but even though he fed more pills, the weight of the magic gourd still slowly became lighter and there was no change.
Zhou Wen even felt that the magic gourd was becoming lighter at a slower rate.
Liuyun had obviously noticed this and said gloomily, "It seems that it's impossible to take the magic gourd back today."
Sure enough, after Liuyun fed the remaining eight pills, he still couldn't lift the magic gourd.
On the stairs outside, the terrifying sound of the gas explosion had reached the 30th floor. A few floors further, the two disaster-level dimensional creatures rushed up.
"Big Brother, if you still want to carry it, then do it slowly by yourself. I'm leaving now." Zhou Wen wanted to find a way to escape from Laojun Terrace.
But after trying teleportation and space transmission, they were of no use. Unless I went out through the main gate, any Qi techniques and strength would be useless.
"Junior brother, stop trying. Laojun Mountain is where Laojun ascended to the fairyland. If you really use your spatial ability forcibly and fail to teleport out, that's your luck. If you really teleport out, you will probably go straight to the fairyland." Liuyun said as he tried to move the gourd.
"Don't people say that the fairyland is a good place? It would be nice to be able to teleport there." Zhou Wen replied.
"Junior brother, are you really naive? Or are you really stupid? If that place is really that beautiful, do you need to be taken there? I'm afraid everyone will cry and rush to get in." Liuyun said with a sneer.
Zhou Wen remained silent. He knew that the fairyland was most likely another dimension, but if the crisis really came, he would not care about that.
Zhou Wen didn't know how powerful the Qilin-like dimensional creature was, but he had seen the horror of the giant bear with his own eyes. Even if Zhou Wen fought it with all his strength and even used the Sword of Immortal Killing, he was afraid that he would not be able to gain the upper hand.
"My dear grandson, are you done?" Jing Daoxian pushed the door open again and urged.
"There's no way, we still can't move it." Zhou Wen said helplessly.
"Don't try again, just follow me." Jing Daoxian also knew that if the two dimensional creatures rushed down, it would be too late to say anything, so he would rather not have the gourd.
"Zhou Wen, let's go." Liuyun looked at the gourd reluctantly and asked Zhou Wen to leave together.
"You guys go first, I have my own way to leave." Zhou Wen shook his head and rejected Liuyun's kindness.
Jing Daoxian must have wanted to take the opportunity to rush down when the two dimensional creatures rushed up, and use the stone steps to shake them off.
However, Zhou Wen knew the giant bear's strength too well. This method might not be enough to escape, and the risk factor was too high. He might as well find a way out himself.
Moreover, Zhou Wen had some ideas about the magic gourd. After being fed with so many pills, the magic gourd had become much lighter. Just because Liuyun couldn't lift it didn't mean he couldn't lift it either.
If Liuyun was still here, he would feel embarrassed to snatch it in front of Liuyun, but if Liuyun gave up and left on his own, then it would not be his fault.
"Junior brother, you're not still planning on taking the magic gourd, are you?" Liu Yun obviously knew Zhou Wen too well and immediately saw through his thoughts. He curled his lips and continued, "I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise you'll end up with nothing to use."
"You'd better take care of yourself first." Zhou Wen said with a smile.
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. It will be too late. We must rush down the moment those two rush up." Jing Daoxian shouted again outside. From his voice, it was clear that the current situation was indeed not optimistic.
"Junior brother, you'd better pray for good luck." Liuyun also knew that there was no time to waste, so he gritted his teeth and rushed out of the door, moving closer to Jing Daoxian who was outside.
When Zhou Wen saw him leave, he turned around and teleported to the side of the gourd. He hugged the gourd with both hands, wanting to try and see if he could lift it up a little.
As long as you can lift it up even a millimeter, you can put it into the chaotic space and take it away, but if you can't lift it up, it is impossible to put it into the chaotic space.
When Zhou Wen held the gourd with both hands and tried to hold it tightly, he almost fell backwards to the ground.
He picked up the stone gourd with ease. It felt as light as foam and it didn't take any effort at all.
"Strange, how could it become so light, like foam? Could it be that Liuyun was too unlucky, and the pills he fed him only took effect after he left?" Zhou Wen guessed secretly in his heart.
However, Zhou Wen quickly rejected this idea. The weight of the stone gourd was gradually decreasing, and it was impossible for it to become so light all of a sudden.
"It's not that Liuyun has bad luck, nor is it a problem with the pills. Could it be that it's because..." Zhou Wen's mind moved, and he put the stone gourd into the chaotic space, then reached out to take the stone wheel below.
Legend has it that it was the millstone used by Taishang Laojun to grind medicine, and was called the good luck stone by humans. To be honest, the millstone may be more precious than the gourd.
The magic gourd is only used to hold medicine, but the grinding wheel can grind the medicine automatically. The functions of the two are very different.
Zhou Wen's fingers touched the millstone, and then he lifted it with force. As a result, the millstone was easily lifted up by Zhou Wen, just like when he took the magic gourd just now.
"What's going on?" Zhou Wen himself was a little surprised. He didn't know why he could get the magic gourd and the stone mill so easily.
I went out during the day and didn't sleep. Now I'm so sleepy that I can't open my eyes. There is one chapter left. I'll return it tomorrow during the day. Good night.
