Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1167 - 513: Demon-Locking Tower

On the stone wall that had been smooth like a mirror, dozens of crossbow bolts suddenly appeared.

A rain of arrows poured down.

Ning Qi only needed one glance to see how powerful this arrow rain was.

It absolutely wasn’t any weaker than the power of the attacks from Dao Bujin and the others on their Flying Boat.

"Three Thousand Waters!"

Ning Qi hurriedly unleashed his own Array Restriction.

In an instant, strands of Water Pattern appeared all around.

Under the surging Water Pattern, it was like waves were evolving around his body, making the void around him start to shudder and sway.

In this way, it formed the same folded space effect as when they had come in.

This was a Restriction Ning Qi had comprehended himself after seeing the folded space.

He hadn’t expected it to come in handy so soon.

"Hu!"

Right now, the speed and force of these arrows were continuously neutralized under the waves of his Water Ripples Fluctuation.

By the time they reached the vicinity of Ning Qi, they had already lost all offensive power.

They all fell to the ground, and even the Spiritual Qi fluctuations that shimmered on the arrowheads completely dispersed.

They were just like arrows that had never been triggered, not moving at all.

"What a nasty place."

Only then did Ning Qi breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking at the stone door before him, he couldn’t help but smile. "Good thing I noticed it. Otherwise it really would’ve been a bit troublesome."

He then walked straight up to the stone door. This time he didn’t act as rashly as before.

"Since there’s a Restriction here, that means there must be some treasure inside."

"Otherwise, what would be the point of wasting all that effort?"

Ning Qi calculated for a moment, then directly spread out the Water Pattern again.

"Buzz!"

Under the fluctuations of the Water Pattern, it slowly began to fuse with the Restriction on the stone door.

This made the whole stone door start to hum.

Then it began to tremble.

Ning Qi didn’t dodge. He was very confident in his Array.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the humming gradually faded.

In the next moment, the stone door began to rumble.

Starting from the bottom, a crack slowly appeared.

The crack gradually widened, and in just a short while it was big enough for a person to pass through.

Ning Qi didn’t delay any longer and slipped in directly.

He saw the scene before him.

This was a treasure vault, piled high with all kinds of gold, silver, and jewels.

Moreover, these were not common goods. One look and you could tell they were treasures filled with Spiritual Qi.

But Ning Qi wasn’t interested in these. He continued walking deeper inside.

Very soon, he arrived in front of a treasure chest. His Divine Sense swept over it, only to find that the chest couldn’t be explored with Divine Sense at all.

Every time he tried probing, an invisible force would block his Divine Sense outside.

"Interesting."

Ning Qi smiled, then stepped forward and took out the Chaos Sword.

He was just about to cut the chest open and see what was inside.

"Swoosh!"

As the Chaos Sword chopped down with full force, something that surprised Ning Qi happened.

This Chaos Sword, which could cut through anything, actually failed to break open the chest.

It didn’t even leave a single sword mark.

"Tsk tsk, this is a good item too."

Ning Qi clicked his tongue, then put the Chaos Sword away and looked around.

There had to be a way to open this chest here.

He looked at the mountain of gold, silver, and jewels piled up here, and instantly understood.

Most likely, the people here had piled these treasures up on purpose to mislead others.

In reality, it was just to hide the method of opening the treasure chest.

But if I search through them one by one, that’d be a huge waste of time.

Better to collect everything first, then take my time looking through them after I leave.

Ning Qi thought that to himself, then collected everything inside.

Only when the place looked blasted clean and completely empty did he finally stop.

After putting everything away, he had no intention of staying here any longer.

He turned around and left.

Following the original path back, he arrived once more at the plaza they had just visited.

"Master!"

Seeing Ning Qi come out, the Medicine Spirit hurriedly flew over.

"What is it? Why are you so flustered?"

Seeing the Medicine Spirit’s anxious look, Ning Qi said irritably.

"Master, look at the foot of the mountain. Someone’s coming!"

The Medicine Spirit pointed to the foot of the mountain below the plaza.

Down there, people were walking up the mountain.

And there was more than just one person.

Looking closely, there were over a dozen of them, all heading straight for this place.

"If they’re coming, let them come. We’re not getting in their way!"

"Come on, let’s go see what’s going on in the back mountain."

Ning Qi only gave a disdainful glance down the mountain, then turned to head for the back mountain.

Planning to continue exploring their back mountain.

"Master, what if they’re..."

The Medicine Spirit was still a bit worried and couldn’t help speaking up.

"What if? And what if they are?"

Ning Qi smiled. "We don’t hinder them, and they’d better not cause trouble for me."

"As long as well water doesn’t mix with river water, we just go our own way."

"Alright..."

The Medicine Spirit was still uneasy, but since Ning Qi had already said that, he couldn’t say anything more.

He still had confidence in Ning Qi’s strength.

However, there were a lot of people down there, and they had just offended someone earlier. If those people were here for revenge...

Then they’d really be in trouble.

Ning Qi didn’t care. He simply led the Medicine Spirit and continued walking toward the back mountain.

The two of them reached the back mountain and saw that it was divided into several different areas.

Some were places for Cultivation, and some were clearly areas that only Inner Sect Disciples could normally enter.

"Treasure Pavilion!"

"And the Demon-Locking Tower!"

"Master, what could be inside these?"
