A Record of A Mortal's Journey to Immortality

Chapter 824: Little Sumeru Vajra Formation

Although the marquis of nanlong spoke calmly, his eyes were fixed greedily on the spirit medicines on the offering table, as if he wanted to snatch them all up immediately.

Each of these spirit medicines was something he and the old man desperately needed. Now that they were within reach, his heart itched with impatience.

When he first entered this place and saw these spirit medicines, he almost immediately wanted to sweep them all away without a second thought. However, he did not expect that there was such a bizarre magical formation restriction here, causing him a significant setback. He had no choice but to wait patiently for the old man.

Now, upon hearing the old man with the surname Lu call out the name “Little Sumeru Vajra Formation,” the marquis of nanlong’s spirit lifted, and he felt a surge of joy.

When he had just touched that restriction, he had sensed that this formation was very different from the many formations he had studied before, and he was somewhat worried. But now that the old man recognized the formation, it was naturally wonderful news.

“Brother Lu, you recognize the restriction here?” the marquis of nanlong suppressed his excitement and asked eagerly.

“Years ago, I obtained some cultivation scriptures of the Buddhist Sect. Although I never practiced their cultivation techniques due to incompatibility, I remember some of the Buddhist Sect’s magic formation restrictions recorded in them. This Little Sumeru Vajra Formation is one of the most marvelous formations among them. Brother Nanlong, if this restriction here really is this formation, then the trouble won’t be small,” the old man said, his gaze returning to the offering table as his brows furrowed.

“What do you mean? Is it impossible to break this formation?” The marquis of nanlong’s expression changed slightly, showing some disbelief.

“This Little Sumeru Vajra Formation is also called the Vajra Trapping Immortal Formation. It might be one of the few restrictions in the world that can only be broken through brute force. There is no other formation spell or technique to dismantle it. To break this formation, one must constantly attack to wear down the protective shield generated by the restriction without stopping. Although in terms of defense, this restriction may not rank highly among many formations, in terms of durability, it is famed in the Buddhist Sect for its indomitable endurance. It seems as long as the restriction is not completely destroyed, it can quickly restore itself,” the old man said after a moment of contemplation, his tone grave.

Then, seemingly to demonstrate his point, the old man with the surname Lu casually flicked his hand, and a fireball suddenly shot toward the offering table several dozen feet away.

With a “bang,” the fireball exploded spontaneously before reaching the table and dispersed into nothingness.

A thick, condensed light shield of spiritual light appeared over the offering table.

This shield was resplendent with golden light. Tiny, ancient Buddhist characters the size of beans appeared on the shield’s surface one by one, blooming like silver flowers all over the shield.

The marquis of nanlong’s face darkened slightly. He had already seen this scene once before and thus did not seem surprised.

“Eh! What is that?” An old man nearby suddenly exclaimed in astonishment.

The marquis of nanlong was startled and turned his head to look.

He saw Lu Weiying staring in amazement at a certain spot within the golden shield, his face full of astonishment.

Curious, the marquis of nanlong’s spiritual light flickered, and he forced his gaze through the shield wall, following where Lu Weiying was looking.

Inside the golden light veil, at the center of the offering table which had been otherwise empty except for some spirit medicines, suddenly appeared a silvery, misty round bowl, roughly the size of a human head.

Various deep and obscure runes drifted across the surface of the round bowl. Around it lay eight pale white Jade Talismans, arranged flat and clustered around the bowl.
