Chapter 876: Thousand Mechanisms House
As the wine flowed freely, a young cultivator with an honest face approached Lu Xuan.
“Friend Lu, why are you drinking alone? Come, come, join me for a few drinks!”
The youth, slightly intoxicated, said to Lu Xuan with a smile.
“All the fellow cultivators have experience in hunting evil demons, and they’re discussing related topics. Lu Mou doesn’t quite fit into their conversations.”
Lu Xuan replied with a smile.
“I see.”
...
The youth nodded and then, a chilling flying sword materialized in front of him, surrounded by a faint mist, weaving between them.
“Friend Lu, how about this five-grade Flying Sword I obtained from the Heavenly Star Cave? I risked my life hunting down seven or eight evil demons to exchange for it.”
The youth looked passionately at the flying sword before him, clearly cherishing it greatly.
“Not bad, worthy of Friend Zhang’s efforts. To exchange for such a strange treasure from the Heavenly Star Cave, Lu Mou admires you.”
Lu Xuan inwardly criticized the youth’s awkward change of topic but showed the perfect hint of envy on his face, satisfying the other’s desire to show off.
“Haha, next time there’s such an opportunity, Friend Lu, make sure not to miss it.”
The youth laughed heartily.
“Certainly, certainly.”
Lu Xuan agreed.
After the gathering ended, he didn’t linger long, bid farewell to the other cultivators, and returned to his cave abode.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed; he stayed in the cave cultivating spiritual plants. During that period, Ye Xuanyin came over again after contacting him, and let the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect feed on the evil demon strange poison once more, having a feast.
After she left, Lu Xuan immediately helped the insect detoxify. With the previous experience of absorbing strange poison, the insect’s poisonous nature had significantly intensified, and Lu Xuan only needed to stand by and wait for it to recover normally.
That day, as he was cultivating a large patch of Thousand Forms Grass in the spirit field, he suddenly sensed a slight fluctuation in the spiritual energy inside the cave abode.
With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he saw the Grass Puppet, which usually patrolled the spirit field day after day, standing still instead of moving as usual.
Once the Grass Puppet continued its long-legged patrol of the Spirit Field, he reached out to lightly touch the surface of the light group.
In an instant, the light group shattered silently, dissolving into a myriad of fine luminous points that quickly converged into a small house shadow and flew into Lu Xuan’s body.
At the same time, a thought flashed through his mind.
[The Grass Puppet’s breakthrough to fifth grade resulted in the acquisition of a sixth-grade treasure, the Thousand Mechanisms House.]
As the thought vanished, a strange mechanical house appeared in front of Lu Xuan.
The house was the size of a baby’s head and was extremely complex and exquisitely constructed, with various intricate mechanisms functioning continuously, rendering the house in a constant state of flux.
With his mind focused on the Thousand Mechanisms House, Lu Xuan immediately understood detailed information about it.
[The Thousand Mechanisms House, a special product of mechanisms coming from Qianji Door, was made up of countless mechanisms.]
[Once refined, the Thousand Mechanisms House could be controlled at will, change as desired, and contained vast inner space. It could move freely and had a strong adaptability to various complex environments, while also boasting a defensive strength equivalent to a sixth-grade Protective Array.]
[Only in its original state could it be placed within a Spatial Treasure Item, as it would cause a certain repulsion with other Spatial Treasure Items once transformed.]
“A sixth-grade treasure, the Thousand Mechanisms House. The reward from this light group is quite interesting,” Lu Xuan observed with evident interest.
He probed the house with his Spiritual Sense, and the more he sensed, the more he felt the complexity and profoundness of its mechanisms, to the point where even with his strong Spiritual Sense, he nearly felt dizzy and disoriented.
“Indeed, the Mechanism Puppet Technique of Qianji Door is extraordinary,” he mused in awe.
“The Grass Puppet was just a low-rank puppet picked up from a Loose Cultivator’s stall, and there’s also the Duobao Tower I entered before, as well as this Thousand Mechanisms House—they all originate from Qianji Door, indicating the extent of its industry.”
“In the future, I can use this Thousand Mechanisms House as a temporary base when traveling outside, which will be more flexible and comfortable than an equal rank formation,” Lu Xuan thought to himself.
“Just one thing to keep in mind is that when using this Thousand Mechanisms House, I shouldn’t put it into other Spatial Treasure Items.”
He reminded himself, and with a thought, the wooden house instantly entered his Storage Bag and then flew out just as quickly, into the Gluttonous Insect Pouch within his Dantian.
“This appearance is the original state of the Thousand Mechanisms House.”
After some experimentation, Lu Xuan delved his Spiritual Sense into it, slowly refining this newly obtained Spatial Treasure Item.
