Traveling through time to cultivate immortality: a life and death test

Chapter 381 Breaking the Ban at Midnight

"Don't worry, senior. I guarantee with my life that I can break the ban when it is at its weakest at midnight!" Liu Xing promised firmly.

"Senior, I need to refine some magical tools to break the formation." Liu Xing asked respectfully. The fate of the couple was in the hands of others. Although he felt very aggrieved, he could only swallow his anger at this time.

"Just practice here and don't go anywhere. Don't try to be clever. I don't mind taking your life in advance!" Old Sun said viciously.

"Yes."

Liu Xing came to his wife's side and gave her a reassuring look. Then, they both took medicine and meditated, first restoring their cultivation and mental state to their peak.

There were still two hours left in the ion time, giving Liu Xing the opportunity to make some preparations. He pulled out some refining materials, including some puppet remnants he'd found in the fourth-floor storage room. He'd researched this material before; the puppet's mirror image restriction had used it to guide the spirit. While he didn't know its name, he had a general idea of ​​its function and value. Now, he had a new idea for breaking the ninth layer of the restriction. Breaking the restriction at midnight was a delaying tactic!

"I just have to succeed this time!" Liu Xing silently encouraged himself, facing tremendous pressure.

"Calm down! Calm down!" Liu Xing took a deep breath and silently recited the Buddhist mantra in his heart.

Pangpang, who was consolidating his cultivation, also sensed the danger from his master. He exhaled in his sleep, turned over, and fell back into a deep sleep. This breath instantly calmed Liu Xing's spirit, and his anxious mood instantly settled. Pangpang had gained another special ability to calm his mind, and Liu Xing was overjoyed.

Old Sun suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Liu Xing. This glance naturally allowed him to see clearly the fat man in Liu Xing's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Golden Silkworm Gu King! This kid is so lucky! It's a pity that this companion Gu can only be used by the master. If the master dies, the Gu will die too." Old Sun thought about it with regret, and continued to stare at Liu Xing refining the weapon.

Liu Xing, having calmed down, began to refine his newly devised forbidden-breaking instruments. There were forbidden-breaking cones, star-shaped ones, disc-shaped ones, and so many other things that no one else could understand their purpose. Liu Xing also added some of the puppet materials to these instruments.

"This junior is so skilled in refining weapons. It turns out he is also a master of refining weapons. He is an expert in both weapons and formations. There is no one like him before and there will be no one like him after him in the Chaos Sea! If I had met him earlier, I would not mind taking him as my disciple!" Sun Laoru discovered a rare treasure, but unfortunately he is now focused on ascending to heaven, and nothing else can distract him.

"The three wonders of elixir, weapon and formation!" Chen Gong, Meng Wei and others who knew the details sighed. With such talent and strength, he was about to die here. The only thing he could do was to save himself.

Liu Xing didn't care what other people thought, nor did he dare to hide his incompetence anymore. Now he wanted to use all he had learned in his life and give it a try!

Nie Xiaoqian sat quietly beside him, wiping Liu Xing's sweat with a handkerchief, and gently watched her husband busying himself. She was now extremely calm. What was there to worry about? What was there to worry about? As long as he was by her side, every minute and every second was bliss.

After preparing all these magical instruments, Liu Xing put them away and sat down next to the restriction again. He stopped practicing the tortoise breathing technique and poured out the enormous power of his consciousness without reservation, carefully feeling the rhythm of the restriction gate.

Even in the late Jindan stage, he possessed the magical power and spiritual awareness of the middle Yuanying stage, which made everyone present stop looking down on him and only felt regret.

"This boy is so talented and strong! He must be from a prominent family!" Old Sun looked at Liu Xing carefully and thought silently.

"Chen boy, where does this guy come from?" Old Sun asked Chen Gong through voice transmission.

"Senior, this man's name is Liu Xing. He hails from the southern seas, but his exact origins are unknown. He arrived at our Righteous Path Alliance over a decade ago, seemingly specifically for this Chaos Tower. He is incredibly talented and capable. Not only are he a master of the three realms of elixir, weapon, and formation, but he also possesses unparalleled wisdom and strategy, and the strength to challenge opponents two levels higher. Such talent, strength, and talent is unprecedented in my life." Chen Gong quickly and concisely reported, but he couldn't help but speak well of Liu Xing. Liu Xing was indeed a man of excellent character, and had been of great help to him. He waited cautiously. After a long while, Old Sun remained silent, and his anxiety was finally at ease, but he still remained unsure of Old Sun's intentions.

"Master Liu, this is all I can do to help you." Alliance Leader Chen thought silently.

"To be able to teach such an outstanding disciple, I am ashamed as I am. Could it be that immortal disciple from Zhongzhou?" Old Sun speculated. But it was none of his business. As long as Zi Shi couldn't break the formation, Liu Xing and the others would still die. He was alone, without any worldly concerns, and acted without scruples.

"It's moving! It's moving!" Liu Xing was surprised. Sure enough, someone was shaking the restriction from within, weakening its power bit by bit. Liu Xing immediately seized the opportunity and cooperated with the other party, attacking from both inside and outside.

No one knew what lay within the ninth floor. Elder Sun speculated that it might contain the remnant souls of the higher realms. Since entering the Chaos Tower, the remnant souls had been calling out hourly. Elder Sun knew the danger, but since it concerned his ascension, he had no choice but to investigate.

Liu Xing couldn't understand why someone on the ninth floor was actually breaking the restrictions. Initially, he'd assumed the Chaos Tower had fallen into disrepair, weakening the restrictions. Now, he realized it was a force within that was gradually shaking the restrictions.

Upon hearing Liu Xing's breaking of the barrier outside, the forces within reacted quickly. Although communicating silently, they were forbidden to exchange words, and surprisingly, they gradually began to work together in harmony. Time passed quickly, and the midnight hour quietly arrived. This was the moment to break the formation!

Liu Xing jumped up and quickly thrust the newly-refined magic weapon in his hand into various restricted areas.

"Senior, please attack the Qian position. Alliance Leader Chen, please attack the Kun position. Alliance Leader Wei, please attack the Zhen position. Please prepare!" Liu Xing wasted no time in assigning tasks to the three leaders. Without further ado, the three immediately took their positions, ready to strike.

"Follow my command, kill!" Liu Xing seized the opportunity and gave the order. The three men, already prepared, attacked with all their might!

"Boom!" The nine-story barrier shook violently, shaking the entire Chaos Tower. The monks who were searching for treasure on each floor were also shaken and fell to the ground, each one like a frightened bird.

“Kill again!

"Boom!" After three such fierce strikes, the restriction of the ninth-level entrance was finally broken, and a dark entrance appeared before their eyes.

Find the restriction's weakness, attack from both inside and outside, and then use the power of the Spiritualization and Nascent Soul stages to attack simultaneously, and only then can you break through the door when the restriction is at its weakest! Liu Xing secretly felt lucky. With so many conditions, there was no way to replicate this anywhere in the human world.

The restriction was broken, and the two men's lives were finally saved temporarily. Liu Xing retreated to his wife's side. Nie Xiaoqian smiled and took her husband's arm, wiping the sweat off his face.
