A gift returned ten thousandfold: I am the number one licker in all realms!

Luo Xing roughly estimated the power of the formation within.

If nothing unexpected happens, such a formation is definitely not something he can easily destroy. It would require at least a Venerable Realm or higher to be able to break it.

If it could be destroyed so easily, it would be too simple. After all, this is the Second Elder's cultivation cave. If it were destroyed so easily, wouldn't the Second Elder lose face? This is the Second Elder of the sealed sect!

Third, the Second Elder, as the elder said, possessed extremely formidable skill; even he himself was no match for him. If he were to easily engage in combat, he would likely end up crippled.

In other words, such a terrifying figure could not be easily defeated, and the array he created would naturally not be so easily destroyed.

However, this piqued Luo Xing's interest, and he wanted to know what was going on with this formation.

There are countless formations in this world, but in Luo Xing's eyes, most of them are utterly insignificant. Many basic formations are simply constructed with a few spirit stones and have no real significance whatsoever.

The truly powerful formations are far beyond what ordinary people can create.

Luo Xing stood in front of the formation, carefully observing the patterns floating in mid-air, trying to figure out the details of the formation.

They also wanted to know the origin of this formation. Once they figured out the origin of this formation, it wouldn't be a big problem.

However, Luo Xing looked at it again and again, but he still couldn't figure out what was going on. He didn't know how the other party had constructed this formation.

Without even understanding the logic behind this formation, it's already quite difficult. Are we supposed to force our way through it? If so, the difficulty will increase dramatically.

For a time, Luo Xing tried different methods, but he still couldn't break through this barrier, which made him lose confidence. After all, time was limited.

The Third Elder and the Second Elder went to have tea, which means that the Third Elder is currently holding off the Second Elder for a limited time.

Once the Second Elder discovers the flaw, everything will be for naught. Therefore, Luo Xing is extremely nervous and hopes to crack this thing as soon as possible.

Knowledge comes in stages, and skills have their specializations. Although Luo Xing is a master alchemist, he is not a master of formations. He couldn't figure out the intricacies of this formation for a while.

"Damn it, if all else fails, it seems the only option is to destroy it by force. I refuse to believe that I can't open it up today!"

As Luo Xing spoke, he pulled an explosive tag out of his pocket. This explosive tag was given to him by his grandfather.

It contains an extremely large amount of spiritual power. Even a true Venerable Realm expert would have to avoid its sharp edge when facing this explosive talisman.

So Luo Xing didn't believe that such a powerful explosive talisman couldn't break through this formation.

As Luo Xing spoke, he took out the explosion talisman and affixed it to the formation.

After that, Luo Xing ran dozens of meters away, then began chanting incantations, starting to push the explosive talisman, preparing to detonate.

A few minutes later, there was a loud bang.

Luo Xing cautiously peered over, but what he saw completely shocked him. The formation was perfectly intact; not a single detail had been damaged.

Seeing this, Luo Xing completely lost his composure and even started cursing. How could this broken formation be so impossible to break no matter what? What kind of broken formation was this? Was it even more powerful than the explosive talisman his grandfather had given him?

Could it be that they're thinking of needing a few more explosion talismans?

Luo Xing was just thinking this when he started preparing to stick a few more explosive talismans on. But before he could even have that opportunity, what happened next shocked him so much that he couldn't help but take a few steps back, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Right in front of the cave, right in front of the formation, a skeleton soldier suddenly appeared.

A skeleton soldier, his body made entirely of bones, held a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. He appeared poised to charge at Luo Xing, seemingly devoid of any vitality.

He seemed to be being manipulated, without receiving any orders whatsoever.

He walked towards Luo Xing step by step, his aura from the mountain extremely powerful. Luo Xing was completely bewildered by this chaotic situation. It seemed like there wasn't a single normal-looking person in their entire sect.

The next second, the skeleton soldier suddenly charged towards Luo Xing, seemingly about to sever Luo Xing's head with a single sword strike.

Luo Xing dodged suddenly, and the sword finally struck Luo Xing's back.

The skeleton soldier had no life force whatsoever, and moved with mechanical steps, seemingly knowing nothing but how to attack.

After that, the skeleton soldier began to chase after Luo Xing in waves.

For a moment, Luo Xing was somewhat numb, because this guy was running way too fast; even Luo Xing felt a bit exhausted. After running for about a minute, Luo Xing simply couldn't run anymore. Finally, he couldn't help but punch the skeleton soldier.

With a bang, the skeleton soldier instantly fell apart, but only a few seconds later, the skeleton soldier suddenly seemed to come alive.

The scattered bones in my body miraculously pieced themselves back together, and I stood perfectly intact in front of Luo Xing once again.

Luo Xing was completely dumbfounded. What on earth was this thing? Was it unkillable? Did this thing try to play the immortality card with him? What exactly was this sect? It looked so terrifying.

"Damn sect! Are these skeleton soldiers absolutely invincible?"

"Damn it, if this continues, I'll be worn down to death even if it takes forever. Is anyone coming to my rescue?"

And so, the skeleton soldiers once again began their pursuit of Luo Xing.

Although the skeleton soldier didn't possess overwhelming strength, the immortal power emanating from him sent chills down Luo Xing's spine. Anyone unaware of its power would have mistaken it for some kind of formidable force.

It was on the other side, outside this sect.

The old man and Feng Qing'er naturally couldn't just wait idly.

So the two found a shady spot and began to rest. They then got a wild rabbit and started grilling it, and soon they were enjoying their meal.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that your luck is still as good as it was back then, old man."

"With your barbecue skills, even without cultivation, you could probably become famous throughout the Three Realms if you opened a barbecue restaurant. What about the world?"

"Haha, you little girl, you really know how to talk. If Luo Xing could really marry you one day, it would be a great blessing for our family."

"Since you like it, then eat more. I'll naturally grill more for you in the future."

"How about this, I'll pass this skill on to that brat Luo Xing from now on, and he can cook for you more often. Anyway, that kid's cute, he just makes whatever he wants to eat."

Feng Qing'er blushed as she listened to what the old man said. Who would have thought that the old man would say such things right off the bat!

"Oh dear, Grandpa, what are you talking about? Why are you suddenly bringing this up? It's making me feel embarrassed. Things with that guy Luo Xing aren't settled yet. Grandpa, please don't talk nonsense."

"Maybe not. Luo Xing has his own plans. He wouldn't even look at me."

"Grandpa, you have no idea how many women surround that boy. Even I can't help but shake my head at him. He never even glances at me. I don't know which vixen has seduced him."

The old man couldn't help but burst into laughter when he heard what Feng Qing'er said. He knew exactly what kind of grandson he was.

When Luo Xing made his wish in Canaan, the old man naturally paid attention to the young man, and indeed, he was always surrounded by many girls. Even he, the old man, couldn't help but shake his head after seeing this.

There's no way around it; the Haoyue clan are all born with cunning and scheming minds.

Back in his youth, this old man was a prodigy, surrounded by many beautiful girls. But he didn't fancy any of them.

"Girl, don't worry. Just wait a few days until I see this kid again. I'll definitely give him a good talking to. We can't let him rebel."

“You’re an old man, and I personally chose this daughter-in-law. If this brat dares to object, I’ll break his legs.”

Upon hearing the old man's words, Feng Qing'er's eyes immediately lit up.

With the old man's words, there's no need to worry about Luo Xing rebelling against heaven, since this guy listens to the old man the most.

Of course, he wouldn't force Luo Xing to agree; if Luo Xing was unwilling, he naturally wouldn't say anything more.

"By the way, Grandpa."

"Luo Xing has been inside for several days now, and there's still no news. Could something have happened? I just don't feel at ease."

"After all, this sect is fraught with danger; we can't be careless. What if something goes wrong?"

"If we don't know, we're really doomed, Grandpa, what do you think?"

The old man nodded, knowing that what he said made sense, but there was no other good solution at this point.

"Alright, girl, don't worry. I know that kid has some sense of propriety."
