Chapter 323 The Four-Elephant Formation

Lu Yu raised the wine pot to Concubine Hua outside the window and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, do you want to taste this pot of wine with me?"

Concubine Hua giggled: "I dare not drink this pot of wine with you. This is my junior sister's wine. If I snatch her wine, she will be jealous and I can't handle it."

Lu Yu put the wine pot down again and said: "Since you are not here to drink, then there must be something else important?"

Concubine Hua nodded: "Follow me, it's time!"

Lu Yu didn't waste any words and immediately got up and followed Concubine Hua. Before the two left, they specially rearranged the bridal chamber to make it look like the bride and groom were sleeping together to avoid being disturbed by outsiders.

After everything was arranged, the two left the bridal chamber and sneaked into the night.

As the two rushed all the way in the night, Lu Yu realized that Concubine Hua was also very hidden and had a very high level of cultivation, not even inferior to the Wen sisters.

"Where are we going?"

Lu Yu found that the direction they were walking was becoming more and more desolate, and there was a strange atmosphere around. It was hard to imagine that there was such a place in the capital, so he couldn't help asking.

"Xishan Imperial Mausoleum." Hua Fei answered briefly.

Lu Yu's heart moved immediately.

Xishan Imperial Mausoleum is the ancestral mausoleum of the Yuan family. Originally, he thought that the Panwu treasure would be stored in the heavily guarded inner palace, who would have thought that it would be buried in the mausoleum of the Yuan ancestors.

As the burial place of the royal ancestors, Xishan Imperial Mausoleum is a forbidden area. Not only is there a large army guarding it, but there are also arrays and barriers in the area of ​​the imperial mausoleum. If ordinary people mistakenly enter it, they will definitely be unable to move.

But Hua Fei obviously didn't sneak into the mausoleum for the first time. She was very familiar with the distribution of sentries and array layout around her. She didn't trigger any alarms along the way. Lu Yu followed her and soon sneaked into the inner area of ​​the imperial mausoleum.

The two came to the main part of the mausoleum and stood in front of a huge mountain.

Lu Yu used his eyesight in the night and looked up. He found that this was not an ordinary mountain, but a huge relief. Judging from the shape, it seemed to be the image of Xuanwu, one of the four legendary animals.

Moreover, there was a person standing on the head of this huge "Xuanwu".

"Master, the person has been brought."

Hua Fei suddenly bowed to the figure on the head of the "Xuanwu".

The figure suddenly jumped down from the rock, as fast as a ghost, and appeared in front of the two in an instant. He was a Taoist with a fairy-like appearance and a head full of white hair.

Lu Yu's heart moved. According to rumors, Qin Yanzhen was a disciple of Sanyuan Taoist, a master of cultivation. Now Hua Fei called this person Master. Could he be the Sanyuan Taoist in the rumors?

Lu Yu was immediately curious and carefully looked at the Taoist in front of him, but the result made him a little disappointed. This person's cultivation was indeed very high, and he had reached the ninth level of the Return to the Sea Realm, which was only a step away from Master Qi Yang and Lou Tinghai, but Lu Yu did not detect any mysterious power in his body similar to Qin Yanzhen's...

This shows that Qin Yanzhen's strength did not come from his teaching, and even the master-disciple relationship between the two may not be real.

"Are you the child chosen by Zhen'er?"

While he was looking at the Sanyuan Taoist, the Sanyuan Taoist opposite him was also looking at him.

Lu Yu keenly noticed that the Sanyuan Taoist's attitude towards him seemed a little cold, so he moved his heart and deliberately greeted him carelessly: "Brother Daoist, hello!"

Hua Fei on the side suddenly stared straight, and she didn't expect Lu Yu to call him like this.

Sanyuan Taoist was also caught off guard, and couldn't help but be so angry that his beard stood up, but surprisingly he didn't correct him, just snorted coldly and said: "Young man! I hope you can live up to Zhen'er's trust and don't let her down!"

Lu Yu immediately understood, which meant that Qin Yanzhen's master-disciple relationship with him was not real, but just a cover, and even Qin Yanzhen's status was far above his, so he had no right to correct his address to him.

"Is this the entrance to the imperial mausoleum? Why are there only three of us? Where are the others?" Lu Yu asked, looking around.

Although he didn't know how many people Qin Yanzhen had summoned, it was obvious that Wei Zhihan and Qin Yanzhen were not here.

"The Yuan family imperial mausoleum is divided into two tombs, the virtual tomb and the real tomb. The virtual tomb is just a cover to deceive people. The real real tomb is hidden under the virtual tomb. It is not only large in scale, but also full of traps. How can it be so easy to enter?"

Sanyuan Taoist said coldly.

"This is at best just a formation eye, and it can't be considered a real entrance. There are four formation eyes like this, all designed according to the terrain of the mountain, corresponding to the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise among the Four Symbols. And where we are is the Black Tortoise position!"

"Only when all four array eyes are unlocked, the door of the real tomb will be truly opened! The rest of the people have been distributed to the other three places. The array eye here will be in charge of the three of us, and this Xuanwu array eye is the root of the four symbols. Only by unlocking it first can the other three places be unlocked in turn..."

"Stinky boy, I heard that you have killed many people along the way and are quite capable, but I don't know if you are sure you can unlock this Xuanwu array eye?"

Lu Yu raised his head and looked up at the towering mountain in front of him, and asked: "How to solve it? Do you want to move this entire stone mountain?"

Sanyuan Taoist chuckled and said: "You just need to take a few steps forward and walk to the head of the mythical beast, and you will naturally know how to solve it!"

Lu Yu intuitively felt that Sanyuan Taoist had no good intentions, but he also wanted to try it himself to see what the effect of this so-called four-elephant array eye was, so he walked forward and walked towards the head of Xuanwu.

As he approached step by step, Lu Yu gradually felt a powerful force. When his footsteps stepped under the head of Xuanwu and he was completely covered by the shadow of the four sacred beasts, a magical scene happened!

The whole towering mountain seemed to come alive, and the huge body of the sacred beast Xuanwu suddenly crushed towards him!

Lu Yu felt a tremendous force on his body, as if his soul was about to be crushed, his blood was churning all over his body, and his mind was roaring.

Lu Yu was shocked and retreated quickly, quickly retreating out of the shadow of the mountain. At this time, the huge force disappeared, and the mountain was still the same mountain. The huge body of Xuanwu was still lying quietly in the same place, as if it had never moved.

Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a lingering fear, looking at the Xuanwu mountain in front of him in surprise.

Sanyuan Taoist laughed aside: "What? This Xuanwu formation is not easy to deal with, right? I have said it before, the core of the Four Symbols formation is set according to the terrain of the mountain. Although this Xuanwu formation core looks like a huge rock, it fits perfectly with the surrounding environment and has the best time and place. To unlock this formation core is equivalent to resisting the power of the surrounding heaven and earth..."

At this time, Hua Fei walked to Lu Yu's side and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Then, without waiting for Lu Yu to answer, she turned back angrily and rolled her eyes at Sanyuan Taoist: "Master, why do you tease your brother-in-law? You should know that my junior sister values ​​this brother-in-law very much and has important arrangements. If he is injured and delays important things, my junior sister will not let you off easily!"

Sanyuan Taoist's face froze for a moment, and he laughed dryly and said: "Hey, stinky boy, you retreat, let me break this formation!"

But Lu Yu seemed not to hear it, still standing in the same place, looking at the Xuanwu mountain opposite thoughtfully.

Taoist Sanyuan could not help but frown.

Hua Fei gently pulled Lu Yu's sleeve and advised: "Don't be reckless. According to Junior Sister's plan, Master was originally responsible for breaking the array, and you were responsible for protecting the law. Don't let the spiritual power fluctuations here be detected by the outside world..."

At this time, Lu Yu turned his head and suddenly smiled: "I was not prepared just now, so you should protect me!"

After speaking, he strode forward. Before Taoist Sanyuan and Hua Fei could stop him, he walked into the shadow again.

Just like before, Xuanwu's huge body woke up again, turned into a living creature and crushed towards Lu Yu.

But unlike before, Lu Yu already had a blood knife with red light in his hand.

A flash of red light, the blood knife slashed out.

Instantly, a streak of knife light appeared and chopped towards Xuanwu's head.

Immediately, Lu Yu put the knife back into the sheath, his movements were chic and calm, and he did it in one go.

In front of him, the movement of the mythical beast Xuanwu stopped, and the magnificent force disappeared instantly, and the huge and majestic mountain cracked inch by inch.

The Xuanwu array eye of the root of the four symbols has only its form, but no spirit.

"Is it solved now?"

Lu Yu stretched out his hand and patted the cracks on the mountain, asking innocently.

Sanyuan Taoist and Hua Fei were stunned and shocked.

The two stared at Lu Yu under the mountain, and were so surprised that they couldn't say a word.
