Chapter 72: Uncertain Variables



The greatest function of the pure and spiritual energy is to reveal the first layer of the barrier of the He family's secret treasure. The second layer of the barrier requires the power of the clan leader to break. However, the clan leader's power needs to be inherited from the previous clan leader, but He Yuanqi is dead, and the clan leader's power has not been completely inherited. Only by relying on the pure and spiritual energy, plus the continuous infusion of spiritual energy, can there be a chance to open the He family's secret treasure. This is also the purpose of Lu Ming deliberately revealing the treasure location to others that day.

Everyone slowly approached the huge door, and the closer they got, the colder the air felt. The huge door in front of them became clearer and clearer. Everyone took a closer look and saw that the huge door was made of the most indestructible Luotian Divine Stone, emitting a dark luster and a chilling chill. When they put their hands on the door and touched it, it felt like touching a piece of ice.

Lu Ming said: "Please gather the spiritual energy in your palms and pass it to me."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Everyone poured their spiritual energy into their palms and silently chanted a few mantras. The spiritual energy slowly approached Lu Ming like an air current, and then wrapped around Lu Ming's body, swirling around him non-stop, which looked very beautiful.

Lu Ming was in no mood to watch. He frowned and injected the flowing spiritual energy and the pure spiritual energy into the milky white crystal in the middle of the giant gate. The white crystal shone with a dazzling luster under the effect of the spiritual energy, but the entire giant gate did not change. It was still tightly closed without any signs of loosening.

Sweat broke out on Lu Ming's forehead. He was a pure water spirit root, and the spirit energy of various attributes was now gathered around him, and his body naturally began to reject it. Fortunately, the green spirit energy could offset some of the pain, otherwise he would probably be in so much pain that he couldn't even stand steadily.

Sang Wusheng stood beside him with a worried look on his face. He took out a white pill from his space ring, handed it to Lu Ming, and whispered: "Brother, you will feel better after eating it."

Lu Ming obediently opened his mouth and bit down the pill. The pill melted in his mouth, and a warm current immediately flowed to his limbs and bones, alleviating the pain in his body and gradually regaining his strength.

Lu Ming gritted his teeth and said, "It's far from enough."

Everyone had no choice but to continue releasing their spiritual energy. After a while, their faces were covered in cold sweat and pale, and it was obvious that their spiritual energy was about to be overdrawn.

An hour later, the giant door finally opened with a loud bang. The crystal began to turn from milky white to turbid. Finally, it became transparent. After a dazzling light, the crystal finally cracked. After the door creaked with a dull sound, the giant door finally opened.

Everyone at the scene quickly withdrew their spiritual energy, took a few quick breaths, sat on the ground without caring about their image, and began to replenish various pills to restore their spiritual energy. At this time, a weak breeze suddenly blew from the giant gate, carrying a pleasant flower scent. Soon, the flower scent filled the surroundings.

Lu Ming sniffed a few times, his face suddenly changed, and he immediately covered his mouth and nose, shouting: "Seal your five senses, cover your mouth and nose, it's poisonous gas!"

The scene was in chaos. Everyone stood up in a hurry and chanted a few mantras to seal their five senses. But it was too late. The fragrance of the flower was extremely strong. Everyone felt as if their bodies were bitten by insects and ants, numb and itchy, and countless small red bumps soon appeared on their skin.

Sang Wusheng was basically immune to this kind of poison. The demonic energy in his body made him almost immune to all poisons. When he saw his brother was poisoned, he immediately rushed over and took out the Hundred Poison Pills without saying a word and gave it to Lu Ming. Unfortunately, there was still no improvement. I don’t know what kind of poison this flower fragrance is, even the best pills can’t suppress it.

Lu Ming took a deep breath to suppress the itchy pain that kept coming from his body. At this moment, the air suddenly became cold, and Lu Ming's expression became stern, and he hurriedly looked in the direction where the cold air came from.

At the other end of the huge gate, a black shadow was walking slowly. The man was covered with a black aura, revealing only two red eyes, staring coldly at the people in front of him. Everyone couldn't help but shiver, as if they were being stared at by a cold and poisonous snake.

Lu Ming secretly had a bad feeling in his heart. If the He family treasure house had not been opened for many years, and now someone came out of it. If he guessed correctly, this person should be the person he hated most in this world.

The man laughed coldly a few times, but his eyes were fixed on Lu Ming. He grinned, his voice was hoarse as if it had been rubbed with sandpaper, "Qing Ci, you are finally here."

When Lu Ming heard the other party's voice, his heart sank.

This person is none other than the long-lost He family head, or rather the former head, He Yuanqi.

Lu Ming vaguely felt that something was wrong with what happened that year. At that time, his spiritual energy was overdrawn and he had no power to fight back. At that time, Sang Wusheng, who was disguised as Jing Mo, quietly knocked him out when he was not prepared. When he woke up, He Yuanqi had disappeared, and Jing Mo explained that He Yuanqi suddenly became possessed and died. Although he was reluctant to believe it at that time, he was blind at the time and was just immersed in sadness. He had no time to think carefully about the key points. In other words, he didn't want to think about it at that time. He knew that things were not that simple, but he was afraid of being betrayed again, so he simply chose to ignore it. Everyone has weaknesses and shortcomings, and Lu Ming's biggest shortcoming is selective ignoring.

If you don't touch it, you won't get hurt. This is what he thought, and although he knew it was wrong, he couldn't change it.

Lu Ming looked at him indifferently and said nothing.

He Yuanqi laughed coldly, but his eyes were full of enthusiasm. The black air gradually dissipated, revealing a man in black. There were countless crisscrossing purple marks on his cheeks and arms, which looked very scary. There was no trace of the immortal appearance he had in the past.

He licked his cracked lips and continued, "After so many years, Qing Ci is still so cold. It makes me... want your body even more."

Lu Ming looked at him expressionlessly, without saying a word. However, Sang Wusheng, who was standing silently beside Lu Ming, suddenly made a move. His eyes were extremely cold, and he exuded a terrifying murderous aura, obviously he was extremely angry. Before Lu Ming could stop him, he immediately stretched out his right hand and drew out the long sword at his waist at a very fast speed, flew forward and stabbed straight at He Yuanqi's heart, his moves were fierce and vicious, obviously intending to take the other party's life.

He Yuanqi snorted coldly, and when the sword tip was about to reach him, he raised his hand and waved his sleeve to block it. A black gas immediately rushed out from the cuffs, and when it met the sword tip, there was a crisp sound, and the black gas actually blocked the sword back and dissipated the vigorous sword energy completely.

Taoist Zi Yang saw this and immediately said in a deep voice: "It's the power of the demon clan!"

Sang Wusheng prepared to fight again with a gloomy face. Lu Ming was unable to move due to the poison, so he could only whisper: "Don't let him find out your identity Jing Mo, retreat quickly."

Sang Wusheng immediately returned to Lu Ming's side, but he was very excited. His brother still cared about him as always, so did that mean that one day he would be able to make his brother open his heart again and accept him?

Lu Ming on the side didn't think so much. He said to He Yuanqi in a cold voice: "Have you fallen into the devil's way?"

He Yuanqi smiled up at the sky, staring at the black energy in his palm with fascination, and said, "If I can possess such a powerful force, it would not matter if I fall into the devil's way. Of course, if I can obtain your body, then this power will be brought to its full potential."

He Yuanqi paused, looked at the man beside Lu Ming, and continued with a smile: "Are you right? Lord Demon Lord."

Lu Ming was shocked. He Yuanqi actually discovered Jing Mo's identity!

Lu Ming calmed down and said calmly: "He Yuanqi, you have fallen into the devil's way, but you still talk nonsense like this, you are so shameless. Back then, you wanted to take over my body, and you tricked me into being unable to practice when I was young. In fact, you wanted to train me into the best body for taking over, and then find the right time to force out my three souls and seven spirits for your use. As the saying goes, even a tiger will not eat its own cubs, you actually forced me to a dead end for your own selfishness, and now you dare to appear in front of me?"

He Yuanqi smiled slightly, his veiny face looked extremely scary. He said: "You are my son, of course you can be used by me. Otherwise, what use would you be to me."

Everyone was shocked. They were so shocked by what they saw that they didn't know what to do. First of all, He Yuanqi, who had disappeared for more than ten years, suddenly appeared in the He family's treasure house. This was hard to accept. Secondly, according to the words of the eldest son of the He family, He Yuanqi actually wanted to take over his own son's body for his own use, and he had already started planning when the eldest son of the He family was young. Such a ruthless person is rare in the world.

He Yuanqi continued with a smile, "That day, I was beaten to death by the Lord Demon, but luckily God didn't let me die. For the first time in hundreds of years, the He family's treasure house showed signs of loosening, so I had the opportunity to use my last bit of strength to enter the treasure house and practice to become a demon. For more than ten years, I have been waiting for someone to open the treasure house. Fortunately, you didn't make me wait too long."

Lu Ming said coldly: "Do you think you can fight me with your own strength? You overestimate yourself."

He Yuanqi snorted coldly and said, "I am only in the late Nascent Soul stage, what is there to be afraid of?"

Lu Ming smiled slightly, suddenly stood up from the ground, and patted the dust on his palms. The vigorous spiritual energy slowly flowed out of his body, and then, the spiritual energy suddenly turned into a terrifying pressure, sweeping towards He Yuanqi in front of him with a rolling force. Suddenly, the sky and the earth changed color, and dark clouds seemed to gather above everyone's heads in an instant. The dark mass made people feel cold all over their bodies, and cold sweat broke out on their backs.

Late stage of distraction!
