Instantly.

The sound of mechanism moving could be heard, causing all the disciples of the Dan Sect s to change their expressions greatly. They subconsciously turned around and ran as if they were running.

Lu Ming who had activated the mechanism was startled by their actions, but was able to react in time as he placed his hands behind his back and observed his surroundings.

The originally dim interior of the clock tower was illuminated one by one, followed by the sound of a mechanism moving. The interior of the clock tower was instantly illuminated.

The interior of the clock tower was very spacious. It looked like a hall with a Dao Pillar at the end.

Atop the Dao Pillar, there was a golden lotus throne. It was as though a person was seated cross-legged within it.

As for the clock tower above his head, it was hollow instead of the floor he had imagined. It seemed to be lined with a formation with many mysterious runes that one could not understand.

Lu Ming carefully observed for a while, and after discovering no danger, he slowly walked over.

At this time, the people running out of the clock tower turned around to see that there was no danger. After looking at each other for a while, they carefully walked back.

When they saw the inner environment of the clock tower, their eyes flashed with curiosity.

They all headed towards the interior of the clock tower.

As he got closer, Lu Ming's heart began to undulate.

In front of him was a Dao Pillar inscribed with an Eight Star Light Spirit Gathering Formation. Even after so many years, the Spirit Gathering Formation was still active.

As for the grey-clothed Daoist sitting cross-legged in the middle of the golden lotus above the Spirit Gathering Dao Altar, he had a pretty face. Other than his twisted face, which was almost identical to the dried corpses outside, his physical body was actually the same as it was when he was alive, looking just like a zombie.

"Senior Brother Lu Ming, this … "How can this person be so perfectly preserved even after death?"

The crowd looked at the zombies in the golden lotus and could not help but open their eyes wide.

Lu Ming did not say a word, his eyes tightly staring at the golden lotus and the Spirit Gathering Terrace.

At a certain moment.

He suddenly flew up into the air.

He brandished his sword and fiercely thrust it towards the golden lotus on the Spirit Gathering Terrace.

The sword-shaped treasure released a sharp sword qi, directly shooting towards the array formation restriction on the golden lotus.

"Buzz …"

The moment the sword qi touched the Inhibition Formation, it immediately released a "weng" sound, followed by a ripple that looked like water, that suddenly spread out.

Soon after, the scene changed dramatically.

Ripples of water rippled out of the formation, spreading to the empty patterns above the clock tower.

It immediately caused them to produce some sort of resonance, and in the blink of an eye, they all blossomed with a charming blue starlight.

With the movement of all the formation patterns, the clock tower was soon submerged in a sea of mesmerizing blue starlight.

Upon closer inspection, a mysterious star design had appeared in the air above the clock tower.

A vast and mysterious aura descended from the sky, and the eight Dan Sect s who were bathing within revealed a look of enjoyment.

"A map of the starry sky, this is the legendary ancient secret formation!"

Lu Ming raised his head and looked at the Charm Blue Starry Night Pattern above him, his face revealing a look of shock.

The star map was said to be a secret formation that ancient cultivators used to aid in their cultivation. It had heaven-defying powers and had been lost in this era long ago. It only left a few incomplete records.

Unknowingly, the eight of them were completely engrossed in the mysteries of the star map. Their bodies were fully absorbing the mysterious energy descending from the sky, gradually forgetting about the passage of time.
