It took Long Yu a whole day to finally walk through the eighteen entrances of the storage palace, and there were four halls inside each entrance.
There were sixty-four medicine bottles in total, but unfortunately some of them were empty. Long Yu finally got fifty-one medicine pills, all of which were ancient and prehistoric grades, and there were even a lot of super and top-grade medicine pills.
However, Long Yu didn't dare to take it rashly now. He decided to wait until he went back and asked the Death Envoy.
Long Yu looked at the palace further behind with great envy, but it was a pity that if he stepped any further, he would be sucked away by the space crack that ran across the entire palace. If he lost his life, it would be a waste of time.
However, when Long Yu looked at the three halls at the back, all of which were filled with bottles of elixirs protected by magic arrays, he felt quite reluctant. It was really puzzling that there were so many elixirs, but he could see them but could not get them.
The entire storage palace originally had at least thousands of halls, storing tens of thousands of pills. Even though most of them were destroyed by space cracks, there were still hundreds left that were not destroyed.
And now, Long Yu had only obtained fifty-one pills, so he was naturally unwilling.
It's not that he doesn't know how to be content, but he knows very well that such an opportunity will never come again after this time. Where in other ancient ruins can there be so many pills for him
Every sufferer is a natural alchemist. The sufferer captured by the Nine Nether Dragon Emperor must have been the only one...
"Try to see if there is another way."
Long Yu narrowed his eyes and began to think hard.
The entire palace was pitch black, but as long as Long Yu made a seal, the surrounding stone walls would all light up, illuminating the entire palace.
This seal is exactly the same as the seal of the protective array that closes each pill. Suddenly, Long Yu had an idea, and he pinched this seal, extinguishing all the light around him.
"Ancient remnant, transformed into a shadow and moving forward!"
Long Yu condensed an ancient afterimage, and then let the ancient afterimage transform into a shadow, and continued to move forward in the darkness. Soon he discovered that the space crack really had no suction force on pure shadows!
Anything else, even if Long Yu condensed a Nine Nether Hand, would be taken away by the suction force of the space crack, but after transforming into a shadow, it would not be affected by any suction force!
This solved the problem of the suction force of the space crack, but this also put Long Yu in front of another difficult problem, that is, after turning into a shadow, he could not make a seal and could not close the protective magic circle of the elixir. How could he take the elixir away
After a brief thought, Long Yu made the ancient afterimage cancel its incarnation shadow and stood in the hall again. In an instant, he was subjected to the powerful suction force of the space crack.
However, Long Yu immediately ordered the ancient remnant to cast the Nine Nether Sky Light, covering the entire hall in the black mist of the Nine Nether Sky Light!
The ancient afterimage, which was originally affected by the suction force, suddenly stopped in place, which made Long Yu overjoyed.
Sure enough, the Nine Nether Sky Light can shield the effects of all space divine texts within the range. Even if it is facing the suction force of the space crack now, it can stop it!
Unfortunately, the Nine Nether Sky Light can make the space within its range completely unaffected by the spatial divine text, but it itself will be sucked away by the suction force of the spatial cracks, and the speed of being sucked away is quite fast.
This has given Long Yu enough opportunities. If he still can't get more pills, he might as well just kill himself.
It is worthy of being the ancient-level martial art Nine Nether Sky Light. This is the martial art used by the Nine Nether Dragon Emperor. Naturally, it is extraordinary, especially after he has practiced it to perfection.
If you can reach the realm of perfection, the effect of this move will be even more amazing.
The Nine Nether Sky Light cast by the ancient remnant will take only two breaths of time for all the black fog to be sucked away by the suction force of the space crack.
Therefore, Long Yu had to continuously use the Nine Nether Sky Light. The Nine Nether Sky Light he used could actually last for three breaths, but Long Yu still had to leave time to make the seal, so he could only continuously condense the ancient afterimages and let the ancient afterimages use the Nine Nether Sky Light one after another.
Fortunately, he stepped into the secret realm of the kingly way, otherwise it would be impossible to do so.
It was precisely because he could continuously display the Nine Nether Sky Light and get closer to the next palace little by little that the power in his body was constantly being consumed. Almost every twenty breaths he had to absorb a shadow-attributed exotic beast crystal.
This cost him a huge price!
Even though his Void Dragon Blade space contained thousands of exotic beast crystals, it could not withstand such consumption. However, compared to the elixir he was about to obtain, these exotic beast crystals seemed insignificant.
When Long Yu came back, he spent 50,000 divine coins to exchange for these 1,000 exotic beast crystals.
But if you can get one more pill here, its value will reach more than 50 million. This is a thousand times difference in value. Anyone who comes here will be willing to do it.
"Seal, open!"
After going through a lot of hardships, Long Yu finally moved forward a distance of one hundred miles and arrived at the fifth hall. He then made a seal to cancel the protective formation that stored the elixir, and then grabbed the medicine bottle in his hand.
"Since we have come here, we cannot let go of the sixth or even the seventh palace!"
Long Yu used the Nine Nether Sky Light while flying forward quickly, but this consumed too much energy. He soon found that he had consumed ten exotic beast crystals by only reaching the fifth hall.
If this goes on, the exotic beast crystals on his body will not be enough for him to take away all the pills. What's more, the closer he is to the space crack, the greater the suction force will be, and the faster the energy will be consumed!
Long Yu thought about it and made an extremely bold decision.
He gave up using the Nine Nether Sky Light to cover his progress and instead exposed himself directly in the palace passage, where he was quickly sucked over by the suction force of the space crack.
Although it was extremely dangerous, this action allowed him to quickly reach the sixth palace a hundred miles away, and he didn't spend a single exotic beast crystal!
When arriving at the sixth hall, Long Yu was quick-eyed and quick-handed. At that instant he raised his hand and released the Nine Nether Sky Light, covering the entire hall. Then the ancient residual image condensed and began to use the Nine Nether Sky Light in turn.
The Nine Nether Sky Light cast by the ancient remnant here can be completely absorbed in just one breath, so Long Yu’s consumption in the sixth palace is twice that of the fifth palace.
Fortunately, it only took three breaths before Long Yu continued to let go and quickly walked towards the seventh hall!
He has obtained the medicine bottle in the sixth hall. Everything went smoothly. He must be more careful next time because the suction force of the space crack is getting stronger and stronger here.
When they arrived at the seventh hall, Long Yu's ancient afterimage condensed into the Nine Nether Sky Light, and it was all absorbed by the suction force in half a breath, and Long Yu's consumption doubled again!
Of the seventh hall, only broken walls and ruins remained, and ahead was an endless void. It was probably thousands of miles away from the space crack, but the suction force was already enormous.
Even the palace building that was integrated with countless first-class divine crystals could not withstand the suction force of the space crack at such a close distance. If Long Yu went forward, even the condensed Nine Nether Sky Light would not be able to stop himself from being sucked into the space crack, because the suction force was too strong, and the Nine Nether Sky Light at his current level could not hold on at all.
Long Yu was in no mood to observe the ruins of the palace. After obtaining the elixir in the seventh palace, he immediately turned around and flew back from where he came. At this moment, he could no longer save his energy as he did when he came here.
He had to constantly condense the divine crystals and the ancient afterimages so that he could move back step by step and resist the powerful suction force of the space rift.
It took a total of forty exotic beast crystals to return to the sixth hall from the seventh hall!
Returning from the sixth palace to the fifth palace consumed another twenty exotic beast crystals!
Finally, he returned to the safe fourth hall from the fifth hall, having consumed ten exotic beast crystals. In other words, he obtained three bottles of elixir on this trip and consumed seventy exotic beast crystals.
"According to this calculation, if I want to complete the other seventeen entrances, I will need nearly 1,200 exotic beast crystals in total to restore my constantly depleted strength... I have less than 900 crystals left, which is not enough!"
But even if it is not enough, Long Yu will not stop doing this, because it is really a big profit.
He opened the medicine bottle from the seventh hall, and immediately a burst of ancient medicinal fragrance emerged from it. After just one sniff, Long Yu seemed to have gone to an endless and ancient battlefield, watching countless ancient beings fighting on the battlefield...
This is an elixir that surpasses the ancient level!
Long Yu couldn't bear it anymore and immediately capped the medicine bottle. This made him more determined to go to the seventh hall with other entrance and get the medicine out of it.
What level would the elixir that surpasses the ancient level be
Long Yu had never heard the Death Envoy talk about it, but he knew that it definitely existed. An elixir that surpassed the ancient level, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in it might even reach tens of thousands of times that of the ancient level elixir.
You know, there is already a level difference between the ancient level and the prehistoric level.
And how much stronger would an elixir that surpasses the ancient level be compared to the ancient level
Not to mention, elixirs that surpass the ancient level are likely to contain some special effects. This is not only impossible for the current Long Yu to know, but no one in the entire Shenwu world will know it.
A pill that surpasses the ancient level is a priceless treasure to Long Yu. What does it matter if it consumes only seventy exotic beast crystals
Long Yu continued to work, entering other entrances, each of which led him deep into the seventh hall and took away the medicine bottles inside.
After seven days and seven nights, Long Yu had walked through all ten entrances and obtained thirty more medicine bottles. Unfortunately, six of them were empty, leaving only twenty-four pills.
Among them, only the one that Long Yu got for the first time was a pill that surpassed the ancient level. The others placed in the Seventh Hall were either ancient-level super-grade pills or ancient-level top-grade pills.
During the seven days and seven nights, Long Yu continuously used the Nine Nether Sky Light, and finally achieved a breakthrough in this martial art.
From perfect breakthrough to the transcendent state!
