In Lu Li's life, he had entered many lands of treasure and solved many difficulties. Sometimes, he was trapped. But Lu Li had always been confident. He believed that he could get out and solve all the problems.
Therefore, at first, he did not pay much attention to this place. It was mainly because Blood Fairy had given him boundless confidence. As far as he was concerned, Blood Fairy's understanding of Divine Glyphs had reached the level of a master.
Even if she could not solve it in a short time, she would be able to after some time.
But now, Blood Fairy was telling him that she could not solve it. This was not only Divine Glyphs but also seals of laws. Blood Fairy could not solve it.
Lu Li himself could not solve it. This was built by a warrior at the consummate level. Given his understanding of laws and Fundamental Principles, it would be difficult for him to solve it.
More importantly, the environment here was terrible. It was pitch dark and the space was narrow. If it were any other warrior in here, they would lose their minds and commit suicide in a few decades.
Lu Li had the State of Magic so he did not have to face this environment. But he could not stay in the State of Magic forever.
By then, he would lose his mind as well.
Lu Li dashed into the State of Magic and forced himself to calm down. Panic and flights of fancy would not change anything. Only by staying calm could he find a way out.
Lu Li had calmed down after sitting in the State of Magic for five days. During these days, he had been analyzing the situation.
There was a chance that he could solve this prison. As long as he could understand the formations and seals in the walls, he would have a chance to get out.
He dashed out of the prison. Then, he walked to the wall and began to sense it.
He used the trace of the great path to sense the things in the walls. Psychic power could not be used here, but the trace of the great path could still sense something.
He tried to sense it with his heart, and after half a month, some vague things appeared in his mind. They were runes, and they looked very strange.
The runes crisscrossed and were engraved on the walls. There were also formation patterns. Lu Li ignored the formation patterns and focused on the runes.
Lu Li got up and walked to the other walls. He studied them one by one and memorized all the runes.
Several months later, Lu Li had learned all the runes. A diagram was formed in his mind.
The diagram was abstruse. It was like a beautiful star map, full of mystery and Profound Meaning.
Lu Li began to cultivate. It was dark and quiet in here, but it was actually faster to cultivate here.
Lu Li abandoned all distracting thoughts and began to cultivate.
Time flew by quickly. Soon, three months had passed. Lu Li didn't learn much. The diagram was too abstruse. He couldn't see through it because it was different.
After some thought, he entered the Dharma Realm and continued to comprehend it.
In any case, he had already recorded the runes in his mind. It would be the same to cultivate in a different place. Perhaps a different environment would give him a different harvest.
Lu Li cultivated in the Dharma Realm for another three months. Still, he gained nothing.
These runes were somewhat unconstrained. He couldn't see through them at all. He couldn't understand them at all. He didn't know what they represented.
"Sleep!"
Lu Li fell asleep at once, not caring about anything else. He had been exhausted recently and his mental state was not good. There was no point in continuing.
After sleeping for three to four days, he came out of the cage and continued to meditate.
This time, he entered the dreamland state. He forgot about time and everything in the outside world as he concentrated on comprehending.
In this state, Lu Li had no sense of time. Time flew by quickly.
Soon, three years had passed. Today, Lu Li opened his eyes.
"Phew, phew ~"
He let out a long breath. After spending almost four years, he had finally cracked the Nomological Dao Seal here. Although he was not 100% sure, he was at least somewhat confident.
He stood up and walked to the side of a wall. Then, he stretched out his palm and placed it on the wall. The strange energy in his body surged into the wall.
He directed the energy to the runes and then used the energy to move the runes slowly.
The energy and the runes were intangible and could move in the wall. Lu Li controlled the runes to move one by one and assemble them into another diagram.
That was right!
Lu Li believed that everything here was turned into a cage because there was a strange formation diagram here. As long as the formation diagram was changed, the seal of formation here would lose its effect.
Of course, this was just his speculation. It would be up to fate whether or not it would work.
Lu Li moved the runes bit by bit. There were tens of thousands of them and they formed a huge diagram. It took Lu Li half a month to mobilize all the runes and form a new formation diagram according to his plan.
"It's done!"
Lu Li took a deep breath after he activated the last rune. Then, he waited quietly for something to happen.
After the time for three incense sticks to burn, nothing happened.
"Could it be that I was wrong?"
Lu Li's eyebrows were knitted together. He stood on the wall in deep thought. After a long time, his eyes glowed as he shouted, "No, I am wrong. It should be the other way around!"
Lu Li began to work again. He activated the runes one by one, faster than last time.
It only took Lu Li 10 days to finish the work.
"Buzzing ~"
After Lu Li finished the last rune, the entire wall suddenly lit up. Lu Li had been in the dark all this time, so the sudden light caught him off guard. His eyes felt like they were being stung.
"It's done!"
Lu Li was overjoyed. Before he could put on a smile, he sensed a surge of horrifying energy. He sensed a fatal danger in his soul.
Without any hesitation, he entered the Realm of Magic.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
It was as if he had poked a hornet's nest. Strands of sword energy gathered on the wall and shot into the secret chamber.
It was like a formation of inertia. There was not a single blind spot in the secret chamber. Everywhere was filled with sword energy.
"Hiss, hiss ~"
When Lu Li entered the Realm of Magic, he used the trace of Dao to sense the outside. He sensed that each strand of sword energy was almost as powerful as a completed attack. If he had been in there, he would have been reduced to ashes.
"Freaky!"
Lu Li curled his lips. The Tomb of Yan King was horrifying. If he didn't have the Realm of Magic, he would have died for sure. Nobody could save him.
Lu Li was upset. He was doubting himself. Was he wrong?
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
The sword qi outside attacked for the time for one incense stick to burn before it died down. What made Lu Li overjoyed was that — with a glare, a door appeared in the secret room. The door appeared out of thin air and opened to the outside without a sound.
"I am right. I am going in the right direction. But if I want to go out, I must endure the attack of the sword energy!"
Lu Li grinned. Whether or not there was a teleportation altar on the next level, at least he had left this crazy secret chamber.
