Chapter 741
Speaking of this formation, we have to thank Xu Hai.
At that time, Han Changkong was in seclusion for cultivation. Out of concern for his safety, Xu Hai had specially reinforced the formation around the cave. If it were still the weak formation from before, how could it withstand such a violent impact?
After hearing this, Lu Jie slowly spoke:
"It's good that everyone is okay. We can just build another cave like this. But you were so good at comprehending the rules, how could the cave suddenly explode?"
Hearing Lu Jie's words, Han Changkong was stunned for a moment, as if struck by lightning, and stood there in a daze.
A thought flashed through his mind quickly:
Yes, why did this cave suddenly explode?
He was filled with confusion and doubt, secretly complaining in his heart:
I really want to know what's going on!
But how could he honestly tell the truth that this was a disaster caused by his reckless use of magic and his attempt to combine the power of five attributes?
If I were to be so frank, Lu Jie would probably think that I was acting rashly and without regard for the consequences.
Han Changkong's brain was working rapidly, like a sophisticated mechanical instrument, with countless thoughts colliding and intertwining in it.
His eyes flickered, as if he was trying hard to think of a reasonable excuse.
After a moment, he slowly opened his mouth and said:
"I'm developing an extremely complex and mysterious formation that requires the gathering of enormous energy.
I thought I could control it easily, but I didn't expect that when the formation was about to take shape, the energy gathered far exceeded my expectations. I tried my best but still couldn't suppress it.
To avoid the backlash and the danger to my own life, I had no choice but to abandon the cave and hastily escape."
There was a hint of helplessness and regret in his tone, as if he was really a scholar who had encountered an unexpected setback in his research on formations, and despite trying his best, he still failed.
In fact, he himself was also confused and bewildered about what the situation was. He had to make up such a seemingly reasonable lie just to cope with the current situation.
At this time, several figures were seen flying out of the city as fast as meteors chasing the moon.
Han Changkong looked up and saw Lu Jie slightly opened her lips and said softly:
"It seems that this energy fluctuation is quite large. Several elders of my Lu family have been alarmed and have appeared one after another."
In the blink of an eye, a cultivator who looked like an old man and exuded the aura of a peak Xuanxian had landed steadily in front of Lu Jie.
He first bowed respectfully to Lu Jie, and then asked with a hint of doubt and anxiety in his eyes:
"Master, who on earth could have done this? The power just now was too terrifying. Our Lu Family City was almost destroyed in an instant."
Lu Jie tilted her head slightly and pouted at Han Changkong.
The old man looked in the direction, and when he saw that it was Han Changkong, his expression changed instantly, and he hurriedly said respectfully:
"Oh, it's Master Han. I wonder if there's anything wrong with your health? I'll arrange for someone to arrange a new retreat for you."
This attitude has undergone a 180-degree change, like a face-changing magic trick, which is astonishing.
Han Changkong knew he was in the wrong and quickly responded politely:
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Great Elder. How about we find a place outside the city to build this cave?"
He was calculating his own plans, thinking to himself:
How could I not explore such a powerful method carefully?
The reason why the power was so great before was because too much divine power was invested in each attribute.
The next time he tried, he would only release a trace of divine power. Even if he lost control again, there wouldn't be much loss. After all, there were still two Divine King enemies in the system's list who could serve as 'blood bars'.
When Lu Jie heard Han Changkong say that he wanted to build a cave outside the city, her brows twitched wildly.
