Chapter 3019: Chapter 3005 stealing the key
Translator: 549690339
A crack appeared on the cliff wall, revealing a deep tunnel.
“Let’s Go!”The leader of the elders called out to everyone. Then, he lit up his torch and walked in. The other elders followed closely behind.
Seeing that all the elders had gone in, and that the crack on the cliff wall was about to close, Jiang Fei flashed and followed them in. He followed the elders from afar and walked in the dark tunnel. Although Jiang Fei did not have a light source.., fortunately, his night vision was relatively strong, so he could see the path in front of him clearly.
After following the elders all the way, about ten minutes later, Jiang Fei entered a hall. Then, the elders gathered in front of a stone pillar. They all turned their backs and stood facing outside, this forced Jiang Fei to find a corner to hide. Although he was in stealth mode, Jiang Fei was still unwilling to take the risk.
Then, Jiang Fei saw one of the elders turn around. He touched a special position on the stone pillar and returned to where he was standing before. He continued to stand with his back facing the stone pillar, the second elder began to repeat the actions of the person in front of him. Next was the third, the fourth..
Soon, all the elders touched a special position on the stone pillar. Then, Jiang Fei heard the sound of the mechanical transmission again.
“D * MN! There’s a pa.s.sword? And it’s also controlled separately?”Jiang Fei was a little dumbfounded. These elders were a little too cautious, right?
However, after thinking about it, it made sense. The purpose of the elder council was to ensure that the treasure vault of sealing technology was not opened. Their ancestors did not do anything else, so their minds were all focused on this.
With the sound of mechanical transmission, the stone wall on one side of the hall flipped. On the back of the stone wall was a small platform with a wooden brocade box on it.
After seeing the Brocade Box, a group of elders went over. They carefully opened the brocade box and looked inside.
“Phew… Fortunately, it’s not lost…”the elders heaved a sigh of relief.
“I told you it was fine, right? This place is so hidden. How could they steal the key?”
“Humph! That’s not what you said before!”
“Alright, Alright. The safety of the key has been confirmed. Let’s go.”
“Mm! Let’s Go! It’s better to stay here less lest we are discovered!”
“Do you think they deliberately lured us here?”Suddenly, an elder spoke.
“AH? !”The rest of the elders were stunned.
“Look, we hid the key so well that outsiders definitely wouldn’t know. However, they deliberately claimed that they had the key. In the end, we ran over to take a look. If someone was secretly following us, wouldn’t they have discovered this place?”The elder said.
“It makes sense!”
“Sigh! They were impulsive…”
The other elders discussed animatedly.
“Now is not the time to talk about this. The question now is, what should we do?”The elder asked.
“Why don’t we take the key away?”An elder suggested.
“What if those people are blocking us outside the door and we take the key out? Wouldn’t that be walking into a trap?”
“And even if no one stops us, where will we put the key after we take it out? I’m afraid that it won’t be safe in anyone’s hands, right? We won’t be able to build a place as safe as this place in a short time!”
“Yeah!”
“Then what should we do…”
The elders were conflicted again.
“Actually, I don’t think we need to take the key with us!”At this moment, a young elder said.
“Huh?”Everyone looked at the young elder.
“Look, if we put it back, as long as the trap is locked, they won’t be able to find where the key is hidden. Even if they find the stone pillar, as long as one of us can withstand the threats and rewards and refuse to tell the pa.s.sword, then the key will be safe!”The young elder said.
“That makes sense!”The other elders nodded their heads.
Because the stone wall where the key was located was very thick and heavy, and the stone material used was also very st.u.r.dy, it was almost impossible to open it manually. Although the stone pillar and the pa.s.sword might be leaked because some elders could not withstand the pressure and temptation.., but the pa.s.sword was kept by all the elders. As long as one of them refused to tell the pa.s.sword, then it was impossible to open the mechanism. Therefore, it was relatively easy to keep the secret of the key.
“At the moment, there is no good way. We can only do this!”The other elders nodded and agreed to the proposal.
Then, these people put the key back into the wooden box. Then, they reversed the mechanism and let the stone wall hide the wooden box again.
“Let’s go, let’s go out!”The leading elder said.
“Okay!”The other elders nodded one after another. Then, the group of people left the secret chamber in the belly of the mountain.
After leaving the secret chamber, the elders took back their keepsakes. Then, they quietly returned to the capital. To The Elders’surprise, they were not captured. No one stopped them, su Zhe and Su Rui did not plan to attack them.
Just as the elders were all worried, Jiang Fei remained in the secret chamber.
“Pa.s.sword? It doesn’t need to be that complicated!”Jiang Fei smiled. Then, he waved his hand and summoned the Chengying sword.
“Buzz!”The metal-type spiritual energy covered the Chengying sword. Then, Jiang Fei shook his wrist.
“Slas.h.!.+”With a loud shout, the Chengying sword struck the stone wall, causing a string of sparks.
“Hiss! So Powerful!”Jiang Fei took a deep breath. The stone wall was not split open as he had expected. Instead, it only left a shallow mark.
“Swis.h.!.+”After seeing that the chengying sword could not cut open the stone wall, Jiang Fei withdrew the Chengying Sword. However, he was not too worried.
Then, Jiang Fei took two steps forward and placed his hands on the stone wall. At the same time, his spiritual energy began to change continuously among the five elements.
Jiang Fei was trying. He wanted his spiritual energy to be the same as the Stone Wall’s attributes. Then, he would vibrate at the same frequency. This would cause the stone wall to resonate.
Very soon, Jiang Fei’s spiritual power locked onto the metal attribute. Then, he began to adjust the frequency of his spiritual power. At the same time, Jiang Fei activated his eye of violets. He began to carefully observe the stone wall’s attributes, he also began to look for the frequency of its vibration.
Under the eye of Violets, the stone wall gradually became microscopic and became particles. Finally, it became sections of energy strings.
These energy strings continuously vibrated and formed special particles. These particles eventually formed a solid stone wall.
“Clang!”Jiang Fei began to use his spiritual power to move the energy strings. Previously, he had used his spiritual power. However, he could not release his spiritual power now. Therefore, he could only try to use his heavy spiritual power to do this delicate thing.
