319 The problem of the positioning of the palm

He finally found li Shiwen.

Lu Qing had not noticed this platform before. He could not see it even when he was very close to it.

According to his guess, this should be some kind of high-grade concealment array in effect.

Lu Qing was able to ignore the restrictions, but that did not mean that he had the ability to see through the concealment. His higher consciousness form could not give him that. Unless the level of the concealment array was relatively low, and the concealment effect was not good. Otherwise, if Lu Qing could not see through it in person, he would not be able to see through it in his consciousness form either.

Moreover, according to Lu Qing’s estimation, the effect of this concealment array might not be as simple as being invisible. Any movement from the floating metal platform would be blocked by the concealment array.

Otherwise, if li Shiwen were to make any big moves inside and the fluctuation of spiritual power was large, it would be detected by others. Then, there would be no point in doing so much.

This metal platform looked like it had a radius of several thousand feet, but it was actually quite large. Lu Qing could sense that the metal platform was floating in the air through some kind of electromagnetic power.

The metal that made up the platform itself should not be a natural material. Lu Qing himself was a rather skilled weapon refinement master. These metal materials must have been created by a high-level weapon refinement master using various high-level materials.

On the metal surface of the platform, there were many complicated patterns.

Lu Qing was not an array master. His skills in this area were average. However, with his own knowledge, he could tell that this formation was extraordinary.

The entire platform was a large array floating in the clouds.

“It’s a big project!” Lu Qing sighed.

This platform was definitely not built overnight. Not to mention the various materials that would be consumed, just the manpower alone would require the cooperation of many high-level array Masters and artifact refiners to build this platform.

In other words, this platform itself was an outstanding piece of work.

Not to mention anything else, just this platform alone would have taken a lot of money and time to build.

And that was not the main point.

Lu Qing could clearly see that there were many treasures on the platform. The most eye-catching one was the large amount of divine lightning wood.

There were at least a hundred of them!

Good fellow, a hundred pieces of heavenly lightning divine wood, what kind of concept was that? That would be five million spirit stones in the market! Moreover, the difficulty of collecting so many pieces of divine wood of Heavenly Thunder was much higher than earning five million spirit stones.

Other than the divine lightning wood, Lu Qing also saw many secret treasures with the lightning attribute. The value of all these things added together was probably not small. For example, there were more than a hundred mid-grade Thunder attribute spirit stones placed in various places of the formation, which were also worth more than a million.

By Lu Qing’s estimation, just the various treasures on the platform alone would be worth more than 20 million spirit stones. In addition to the floating platform itself, the Yan Emperor had spent a lot of money to get all these things.

To the current Lu family, 20 million spirit stones was not a sum that they could afford. Even if the entire Qingfeng sect was included, after deducting the necessary expenses from the annual income, it would probably take hundreds of years, or even two or three hundred years, to save up so much money.

Of course, if the Yan Emperor wanted to save up so much money, it would be much easier. Ji Prefecture and Jin Prefecture were the two prefectures that the Imperial court had a greater influence on. The Jin state was much more prosperous than the Feiyun state. The cultivation world was more powerful as a whole, and there were more high-level cultivators-of course, before the rise of the Lu family. As for Ji Prefecture, which was where the capital of Yan was located, it was even more powerful than Jin Prefecture.

But even so, these two states had to bear greater expenses. The entire imperial court of Yan needed these two provinces to provide for the large expenditure. The various benefits and resources would be split among the various clans. The resources that could truly fall into the National Treasury or even the imperial family’s hands and be freely allocated were actually not that much compared to the enormous profits.

Moreover, money alone would be easier to deal with. For something like collecting a hundred pieces of sky Thunder divine wood, how could it be something that could be settled with just five million spirit stones?

In this world, there was no open and centralized trading system. People would buy all the beautiful things they had. The good things that appeared on the market were always limited. Compared to the almost infinite resources that cultivators needed, there was not enough at all.

Precious things like the divine Thunder wood would often be targeted by other forces the moment they appeared. They could either use it for themselves or exchange it for something else. It was far too difficult for a single force to collect so many.

Even if li Shiwen, as the Emperor of Yan, wanted to save so much wealth, collect so many rare materials, build this platform, and prepare the treasures on the platform, he would have to plan for decades or even centuries. It was not an exaggeration at all. historical

When Lu Qing saw this, he was even more certain that li Shiwen had prepared these items in order to break through to the Dharma stage.

If that wasn’t the case, why did he spend so much money?

Many precious items were placed on the platform according to a special pattern and were connected by the formation on the platform. As long as the formation was activated, the essence of these treasures would be released.

Li Shiwen himself was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the platform. His eyes were closed, but the true essence in his body was flowing.

According to Lu Qing’s estimation, the Emperor was doing the final polishing of his cultivation. He was adjusting his physical and mental state in preparation for his breakthrough.

As for whether the arrangement of the external items was complete or not, Lu Qing found it difficult to confirm.

However, based on the previous clues, he guessed that it should be almost done. Otherwise, the advice that li Wenchang had given Zhao Guang at the Zhao Manor, such as ‘don’t cause any trouble at this critical moment’, would have been unnecessary.

But then again, breaking through to the materialization realm wasn’t something that could be done overnight.

The time it took for a cultivator to break through to the next realm would also increase with the growth of their cultivation realm. From Qi refining to foundation building, it would take half a month, and from foundation building to Qiming, it would take a month. It would take three months for an initial enlightenment cultivator to reach the gold core realm. Lu Qing had experienced the gold core realm to the nascent soul realm two years ago, and it had taken him ten months.

One could imagine that it would take at least years to break through from the nascent Soul Stage to the Dharma stage.

There was still time. However, Lu Qing had yet to figure out the Lu clan’s position in the matter of li Shiwen’s breakthrough to the Dharma stage.
