Chapter 259: Chapter 259: The Metal Element is Missing From the Formation, The Location of the Formation’s Eye!

It was indeed surprising for Lu Chen that his Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique proved ineffective, stirring up immense astonishment within him.

However, he didn’t dwell on it for too long, considering that the previous visibility beyond the Formation might have been due to the Xuan Pearl being placed over the formation’s key node.

Moreover, judging by the reaction of the Formation Spirit, the little monkey bore no ill intent.

Stroking his chin, Lu Chen touched his sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Little Black, what do you think?"

Though invisible, Little Black possessed the innate spiritual sense of a demon beast and could sense danger.

Little Black poked its head out, stared at the cave for a long while, eventually nodded, and said, "Master, I didn’t sense anything off. But you did mention that this place is an Illusion Array, so I’m worried I might not be seeing things clearly."

"Don’t worry, if you say there’s no danger, then there’s no danger. But speaking of which, there’s something about this mine that feels off to me."

After a moment’s thought, Lu Chen said, "Let’s go in and take a look, after all, there are those at the Core Formation Stage behind us, and we don’t know when they might catch up."

Little Black withdrew back inside, and Lu Chen also quickened his pace to follow the Formation Spirit entering the cave.

A few moments later.

A ripple suddenly appeared in the air at the base of the mountain!

Following closely, the Xuanji Sect Master appeared at the location, slightly weakened.

"Still unprepared, I rushed out too quickly, and didn’t bring enough elixirs!"

Though her injuries had some recovery, it left her somewhat unsatisfied.

Considering the current circumstances, however, it was already quite favorable.

And just as she entered the mountain’s base, she let out a slight exclamation!

"Eh? The spiritual energy here seems to be richer than outside!"

Actually, the relation of spiritual energy stemmed from the nodes within the Formation.

For the Water Element lacking in the Formation, it was the Xuan Pearl—destroyed, the Spiritual Power would experience an anomaly.

And for the Fire Element lacking in the Formation, it was the Spiritual Fire taken away by Lu Chen.

This mine was lacking in the Metal Element, related to the Formation Spirit.

As the Formation Spirit had not been taken away by Lu Chen, the spiritual power here was still much denser than where the Fire Element was lacking.

"Fantastic, this should be the Metal Element lacking in the Formation; no issues have arisen in the formation. Recovering here will be much faster than consuming elixirs as I did before!"

The Xuanji Sect Master was immediately overjoyed and sat down at the foot of the mountain.

In her view, Lu Chen was merely at the initial phase of Foundation Establishment, a coward, how could he dare to ambush her?

Meanwhile, Lu Chen followed the Formation Spirit deeper into the cave.

Unlike his first visit, there wasn’t a life-or-death choice within the formation, rather a single continuous tunnel.

Lu Chen constantly used his Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique with the Five Elements Spiritual Power for Imperial Command, consuming very little, he did not detect any dangers within the cave, but felt the Metal Element’s spiritual power becoming increasingly lively.

After walking for over an hour, they finally reached the end.

There was a vast space, teeming with rich Metal Element Spiritual Power!

"This is..."

Lu Chen looked around, while the Formation Spirit suddenly pounced over, gesticulating excitedly.

"Are you saying I should continue to follow you, or...?"

Lu Chen had not seen any other paths to take, but it seemed that was indeed what the Formation Spirit was indicating.

Seeing Lu Chen not moving, the Formation Spirit became anxious, eventually stepped forward, grabbed Lu Chen, and, after a few steps, arrived at the center of the clearing, then pointed down at their feet.

Only then did Lu Chen see that where they stood was engraved with various patterns.

He couldn’t understand them, but he guessed that perhaps the node of the Metal Element lacking in the Formation lay right here!

"What are you trying to express?"

Lu Chen squinted his eyes and stared at the Formation Spirit as he spoke.

The Formation Spirit pointed at itself, then at Lu Chen, and finally towards the outside of the cave.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Chen said, "Are you suggesting... that I take you and leave this place?"
