On the stairs leading to the underground stone chamber.
Lu Yixiang and Lu Yuanhong stepped forward woodenly, after having collapsed on the ground just monts before, Lu Guangwen hurriedly helped them up and then led them toward the stone chamber below.
The Great Elder Lu Xiangfu was about to be awakened, and Lu Guangwen did not want to waste any more ti. Sensing that Lu Yixiang and Lu Yuanhong, who were following behind him, were walking very slowly, he turned his head and said, "Great Elder, Second Elder, do you rember what I told you? The affairs of the Carefree Immortal Emperor must not be leaked."
Lu Yixiang and Lu Yuanhong were still stiff all over their bodies up to this point, walking as if they were marionettes being controlled.
Instinctively, they wanted to deny this reality. According to various ancient texts, the Carefree Immortal Emperor had long been dead, but Lu Guangwen's account was very detailed, and Lu Wansheng also confird the identity of the Carefree Immortal Emperor. Now that their ancestor Lu Xiangfu was about to be awakened by him, they nearly believed it to be true.
No wonder Lu Wansheng and Lu Guangwen were willing to intervene in the Eighteenth Prince's affairs, regardless of the consequences, even at the risk of confronting the Illusory Fla Kingdom. If it were true that the Carefree Immortal Emperor had killed the Eighteenth Prince, then the whole matter would make sense.
Lu Yixiang, steadying his breath, said with a trembling voice, "Family Head, rest assured, we naturally will not divulge anything about the Carefree Immortal Emperor. It seems that our Lu Family is about to encounter great fortune. Never did I expect to et the legendary Carefree Immortal Emperor in my lifeti, I am truly nervous beyond words."
Lu Yuanhong inhaled deeply and swallowed, saying, "Now I am truly grateful that I chose to stand with the Lu Family through life and death. Otherwise, I might have missed this chance to et the Carefree Immortal Emperor forever!"
"My granddaughter adores the Carefree Immortal Emperor so much, if she knew the Carefree Immortal Emperor was at the Lu Family, she would probably faint from happiness."
Lu Guangwen had no desire to chat idly with these two old n and urged, "Great Elder, Second Elder, have you recovered a bit by now? Can you speed up a little with ?"
Upon hearing this.
The two old fellows imdiately nodded their heads.
After increasing their speed, they quickly arrived at the innermost stone chamber.
The mont the three of them, led by Lu Guangwen, stepped into the stone chamber, they imdiately shivered. It hadn't been so cold just a mont ago. Their eyes turned towards the Life-Locking Stone, showing a look of shock.
The intense coldness that Shen Feng had stripped away using Silkworm Stripping Hand had all been drawn out from Lu Xiangfu's body.
At this mont, the intense coldness that had been extracted ford a huge ball of coldness above Lu Xiangfu's body. The biting chill continued to emanate from it unabated, clearly visible as the moisture in the air rapidly solidified, and even the air seed on the verge of freezing.
This was also the reason why Shen Feng had asked Lu Wansheng and the others to step back three ters earlier. The frigid air emanating now was so severe that even a cultivator at the Sea Transformation Stage would struggle to endure it!
However.
Shen Feng, standing next to the Life-Locking Stone, was not affected by the cold at all. As he stripped away the intense coldness, inevitably so of his own aura remained, causing the frigid air from the intense coldness to involuntarily avoid Shen Feng's position before spreading in all directions.
Once Shen Feng felt that all the coldness had been stripped away and extracted from Lu Xiangfu's body, his palms instantly ford a seal.
After a red glowing seal appeared in the air, he slapped his palm onto it, causing the red seal to imdiately enter the huge ball of coldness.
Then.
The entire huge ball of coldness trembled violently, the chill it emitted growing more intense. As the expressions on Lu Wansheng and Lu Guangwen, among others, kept changing,
There was a "whoosh" sound.
The entire huge ball of coldness rushed back into the Life-Locking Stone in just a second's ti; the temperature around imdiately started returning to normal.
At the sa ti.
The life force that had been locked within Lu Xiangfu began to recover at an incredible speed.
Sensing this, Lu Wansheng, Lu Guangwen, Lu Xueqing, Lu Yixiang, and others couldn't help but hold their breath.
Ti passed by, minute by minute.
After several minutes.
```
Lu Xiangfu, who lay on the Life-Locking Stone, twitched his eyelids, followed by a slight movent of his withered fingers.
Seeing this, Lu Wansheng and the others couldn't help but tighten their fists suddenly; their ancestor Lu Xiangfu was truly being awakened!
Slowly, very slowly.
The trembling of Lu Xiangfu's eyelids grew more intense as he gradually opened his eyes. Having just woken from a deep slumber, his mind was still muddled. However, upon seeing Shen Feng, a flood of mories surged up like a spring, and he rembered the various events before he fell asleep.
In a hurry, Lu Xiangfu clambered up from the Life-Locking Stone, shivering all over. Having just awakened from his deep sleep, his sealed cultivation was also being rapidly restored. Tears streaked down his face as he exclaid, "Master, is it really you?"
Shen Feng scolded with a smile, "You shouldn't be so lodramatic, kid. I already told you years ago that I had no interest in taking you as a disciple. I didn't expect that after so many years, we would still have a day of reunion!"
Upon hearing this,
Lu Xiangfu's thoughts in his mind beca clearer. Sealing his own lifeforce back then appeared to be the right choice. Without a doubt, it must have been his master who had awakened him. He wanted to kneel on the ground to express his gratitude, but when he entered into his slumber, his lifespan had already been alarmingly close to its end.
At this mont,
Lu Xiangfu's cultivation hadn't completely recovered yet, but a stream of deathly qi began to seep out from his body.
This deathly qi was not only felt by Shen Feng but also by Lu Wansheng and Lu Guangwen, who almost forgot that their ancestor entered the state of deep slumber using the Life-Locking Stone when his lifespan was exhausted.
For a ti, Lu Wansheng and Lu Guangwen, among others, beca sorrowful. Could it be that the Carefree Immortal Emperor had awakened their ancestor only for him to live a re few days more?
Lu Xiangfu also felt the deathly qi erging from his own body. He continued to kneel before Shen Feng, saying respectfully, "Master, I never had the chance to thank you by kneeling before you. Just being able to see you again has fulfilled my wish, and now I can leave this world in peace."
After hearing Lu Xiangfu's words, Lu Wansheng and Lu Guangwen, among others, grew even more saddened,
But Shen Feng flipped over his palm, and a purple pill instantly appeared at its center, saying in annoyance, "I've wasted considerable energy to wake you up, so you'd better stick around and live."
"Swallow this Thousand Longevity Pill. Being able to et again after so many years is also a sort of fate between us."
Lu Xiangfu looked at the purple pill Shen Feng placed in his palm. He had certainly heard of the Thousand Longevity Pill before—it was a precious pill that could extend a cultivator's lifespan by a thousand years! In his era, such a pill was beyond the reach of a cultivator like him.
Holding the Thousand Longevity Pill in his hand and taking a deep breath, he said, "Master, your kindness is sothing I can never repay. I cannot accept this Thousand Longevity Pill; it is far too precious."
Shen Feng shook his head with a smile. Back on Earth, he managed to refine more than four hundred Thousand Longevity Pills, having consud only a small fraction, and moreover, these pills only had an effect the first ti they were taken.
Shen Feng's fingers flicked in succession.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—" sounds rang out continuously.
Purplish lights streaked towards Lu Wansheng, Lu Guangwen, and the others, finally settling steadily into the palms of their hands.
"Everyone who's seen gets a share. I'm not short of Thousand Longevity Pills, and keeping them around isn't much use to , so consider this a greeting gift from an elder to the younger generation," Shen Feng declared.
Then, turning to the astonished Lu Xiangfu, he said, "Don't just stand there, kid. It's not that precious of a pill, so don't dawdle."
Could it be that the tis had changed?
In the past, the Immortal Wind Fruit, which was used to refine Thousand Longevity Pills, was nearly extinct among the heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and had rarely appeared.
Lu Xiangfu looked towards Lu Guangwen and the others, who were younger generations he did not recognize. His sons and grandsons were probably already dead, and these were their descendants. He couldn't help but ask, "Is Immortal Wind Fruit of little value in the Immortal Realm now?"
But no one answered his question.
Lu Wansheng, Lu Guangwen, and the others stared dumbfounded at the Thousand Longevity Pill in their palms, their breathing becoming increasingly rapid through their noses and mouths.
