Qin Wushuang felt a boost in confidence. He had a premonition that since Mr. Lu Xianlou had prepared for almost hundred of years, this plan must be perfect. Even if it would not be enough to pull the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect completely from the root, it would be enough to inflict severe damage to the sect.
Striking at the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect was currently Qin Wushuang’s greatest aspiration.
After all, ever since Qin Wushuang had entered the Xuan Yuan Mound, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had been glued to him like a plaster of dog skin. Qin Wushuang felt the pressure as if the tip of the blade was pointing at him.
Of course, to Qin Wushuang, this would not be a bad thing. At least, these things would urge him to keep working hard and to never slack off at any moment.
Since that Saber Tooth Covert Yellow Dragon was unwilling to speak the truth, Qin Wushuang and his group could only search by themselves. However, he was not depressed. Since he learned about the plan set up by Mr. Lu Xianlou, he had the confidence to execute this plan on his behalf.
Following the map, Qin Wushuang searched the Dark Wind Valley again. Although this Dark Wind Valley territory was only about ten thousand miles, it was bigger than usual areas. It was tough when searching for the mechanism set up by Lu Xianlou. However, Qin Wushuang was patient and continued to search the Dark Wind Valley.
Despite the Saber Tooth Covert Yellow Dragon refusing to assist Qin Wushuang and his friends, he did not hamper or stop them deliberately.
Regarding the search for the mechanisms, Qin Wushuang had enough talent and experience. Like how he had found the Fourth Circle of the Seven Deadly Formation Arrays at the Tortoise King Mountain, he had locked onto the location of the mechanism after a few days of search. Through the process of elimination, he had successfully found the entrance of the mechanism set up by Lu Xianlou.
The entrance was in an unnoticeable underground abyss in the Dark Wind Valley. After Qin Wushuang had found the entrance, he followed the instruction of the map and finally entered the entrance.
Under the guidance of experienced underground travellers such as Mole and Jade Hare, Qin Wushuang entered the internal area of the abyss with ease. After walking through a long paved pathway, he arrived before a giant door.
This door was equipped with hidden mechanisms that would only be activated by special methods. Fortunately, the back of this map had concisely recorded the activation methods. With strong comprehensive ability, Qin Wushuang soon opened the giant door.
Upon activating this door, the place inside exuded charm and beauty. It was apparent that Lu Xianlou had spent a lot of time and effort in this underground abyss.
When he opened the door, the cavern inside was not too spacious. The place had been set up in layers. As they went down each layer, the size of the space became more extensive.
The five or six floors above them had nothing. However, when they arrived at the seventh floor of the underground, Qin Wushuang instantly felt a different atmosphere. Surrounding this seventh floor, there were extremely moist underground gas. Additionally, the movements of the earth elements were incredibly violent. For each step Qin Wushuang took, he could feel a surge of powerful movements that even affected his walking strides.
After some difficulty, Qin Wushuang pushed open the giant door of the seventh floor. As soon as he entered, he arrived at a wide clearing. For everything that appeared in Qin Wushuang’s eyes, it was a giant space the size of a palace.
Inside this space, different shelves were displayed. On top of the shelves, different books and objects had been places and made one feel that this place was considerably out of the ordinary.
Qin Wushuang walked beneath these shelves and looked around. There were a myriad of books and seemed to be all-inclusive. Indeed, this place could be said to contain the encyclopedia of the Tian Xuan Land.
After flipping through some of them, Qin Wushuang did not show any interest in them.
“Boss, Mr. Lu Xianlou, he did not intend to use these shabby books to deal with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, right?” Bao Bao did not know whether to laugh or cry, “I cannot tell how would these shabby books help us fight the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect.”
Lone showed absolutely no interest in these books. He directly ignored the book shelves and started to search through this giant space.
After doing a rotation around the room, suddenly, Lone said: “Boss, look over here.”
There were a few traces of bemusement from Lone’s tone. Qin Wushuang walked over as he heard him. In the direction that Lone had pointed, a pair of carved statues were displayed. For these two statues, one was Lu Xianlou, the other one was a lady. Qin Wushuang had seen a similar looking jade sculpture at Lu Xianlou’s place.
Qin Wushuang stood before the sculpture and looked at it for a moment. He gave a long sigh: “Mr. Lu is truly a person with deep affection. It seems that this beautiful lady should be Mr. Lu’s lover, right?”
Bao Bao laughed: “Mr. Lu is rather an affectionate person. By the way, Boss, look over here.”
The direction in which Bao Bao pointed was the wall across the sculptures. The hands of those two sculptures were making a hand gesture unconsciously.
Through their hand gesture, they were sticking up their index finger and pointed forward.
Qin Wushuang followed the direction in which the finger had pointed. Suddenly, the two fingers from those sculptures shot two beams of golden lights onto the wall.
When struck by the golden light, instantly, it seemed as if a golden hanging screen dropped from nowhere. It painted the entire wall into a golden color.
Among the golden lights, one after another black colored letters of the size of tadpoles emerged. Qin Wushuang was extremely surprised and knew that this must the mechanism set up by Lu Xianlou.
Words from the golden light wrote: “The one who acquired my map is allowed to see this place. Those who received my instruction, please bow three times before the sculptures.”
Qin Wushuang laughed: “Indeed, this Mr. Lu is rather playful.”
Of course, Bao Bao would not let Qin Wushuang to bow. He walked before the sculptures with a chuckle: “Mr. Lu, and Mr. Lu’s love, hello. I am Bao Bao, let me bow to you guys!”
After he had finished speaking, he bent his waist and bowed three times with a good posture. Then, he patted the finger and said with a chuckle: “Boss, I have bowed, let’s see what happens next.”
Before Bao Bao had finished speaking, suddenly, the five fingers of that sculpture had opened widely and a dozen of lights gushed out from the centre of the palm at the speed of lighting.
This lights struck that golden wall one after another and formed into an incredibly malevolent looking monster portrait.
Just as Qin Wushuang and his friends were feeling stunned, waves of piercing lights shot from the pupils of the two sculptures at the position of that monster portrait.
Boom!
Instantly, the power penetrate the wall as it shot towards the position of the portrait. It splattered the dust from the floor. Qin Wushuang was deeply moved and felt himself sigh with emotion. Truly, Mr. Lu possessed divine skills and designed such mechanism that one could claim as the peak of perfection. After everything that had happened, those two sculptures returned to calmness and did not make any other movements.
Qin Wushuang observed that sculpture for a long time. Then, he finally learned that the sculpture controlled by Lu Xianlou was not some kind of puppet, but it had used a spiritual talisman and different external force to achieve this naturally defying effects.
Lu Xianlou was a master craftsman. Of course, the spiritual talisman he crafted were matchless to others. It was not strange at all since everything had been crafted by Lu Xianlou.
Per the old rules, Sky Pilfered Mole and Moon Palace Jade Hare were the vanguards and went through the cave that were originally the location of the portrait. After a moment, they turned to look back and said: “Master, hurry and come in!”
Qin Wushuang, Bao Bao and Lone also followed behind.
After this wall, there lay the true essence. If bystander had arrived at this seventh floor, they would already be fascinated by the myriad of secret books, literature, valuable displays, crystal stones, spiritual talisman, pills and weapons.
In that case, they would never have imagined that outside this seventh floor, there existed another sky beyond this one.
As Qin Wushuang looked around this space, it was only a quarter of the size of the space on the seventh floor and quite a fewer items were displayed.
However, each piece in here could be said to be the true essence left by Lu Xianlou. The countless crystal stones dazzled Qin Wushuang’s eyes.
The different weapons also left Qin Wushuang overwhelmed.
Besides these, there were some spiritual talismans placed in the corners. Just by looking at the quality of the material and the shape, he knew that these were Lu Xianlou’s lifelong works.
Qin Wushuang was not attracted by any of these. Instead, he stopped his gaze at a table upon which a memorial tablet was enshrined.
On that simple and unadorned table, a memorial tablet was placed on it. Yet, there were no words on the tablet. Only, a vivid and lifelike figure was carved on top of it.
Qin Wushuang knew that this must be the place that Lu Xianlou came to hold a memorial service. At the moment, he walked up to it respectfully, bowed and said: “Senior, I, Qin Wushuang, have come here with no intention to offend you. If I show any rudeness, please forgive me.”
As Qin Wushuang spoke these words, suddenly, he saw rows of meticulous words were carved on the stone platform behind the memorial tablet. It was written: “The person who enters this room can inherit my lifetime of works, and must accomplish my final wishes.”
Through the words Lu Xianlou had carved, he had gone straight to the point and described the grudges between him and the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. It also wrote about the persecution from Luo Tongtian.
Although these were not lengthy words, each word was brimming with vengeance. Apparently, Lu Xianlou had carved it while crying tears of blood, grief, and rage.
“So, Mr. Lu and Luo Tongtian developed a bitter resentment toward each other because of this woman. Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had the tradition of oppressing people. The woman was clearly in love with Mr. Lu, yet Luo Tongtian stole her. It’s truly an abominable act.” Qin Wushuang kept sighing with emotion and said to that memorial tablet with sincerity: “Mr. Lu and this senior, I, Qin Wushuang, vow here with my life, that as long as I still have a single breath left in me, I will not give up on destroying the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect!”
There were no solemn vows nor a bombastic bluff. Yet, Qin Wushuang knew better than anyone that to him, he had no choice but to destroy the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect.
If you did not die, then it would be my death.
These words clearly expressed the relationship between him and the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect clearly.
Following the instruction left by Lu Xianlou on the stone platform, Qin Wushuang had gained an initial understanding of the display of this secret chamber.
Within this secret chamber, Lu Xianlou had left six major treasures. Those resplendent crystal stones were only an extra gift besides the six major treasures.
Looking at the treasures around here, Qin Wushuang recognized that it was all tirelessly collected by Lu Xianlou over his lifetime. Of course, there were no inferior products to make up for the numbers!
