Chapter 460 - Ancestor Appears

Inside Chen Ancestor's room, there were seven oil lamps placed around the room. They had clearly illuminated the room, but it still gave off a dark and mysterious feeling. Although he was not there, he still left bursts of pressure behind to create the illusion that he had not left yet.

Judging from the degree of the pressure, Chen Ancestor was very strong, he had already surpassed Jin Batian and Helian Bufan.

Xiao Qianhan glanced at where the seven oil lamps were placed and felt that she had seen them somewhere before. It should be a formation, but she couldn't remember where it was placed.

After taking a look around the room, she didn't find anything unusual. She then walked over to the bookshelf and pulled a mechanism.

Following the sound of a mechanism, an entrance appeared on the floor in the middle of the room. When he looked at the entrance, Xiao Qianhan's eyes did not contain any unexpected happiness.

This mechanism was discovered by chance when she was playing here when she was still a child. He never thought that after more than ten thousand years had passed, the mechanism would still be there. However, it was taken over by the Chen Ancestor and was no longer owned by the Su Family's patriarch.

The moment the entrance was opened, the suppressed aura became more distinct, and the feeling of someone calling out to him became stronger and stronger.

Xiao Qianhan collected her thoughts, narrowed her eyes and walked towards the entrance. Before heading down, she looked up to find that this location was the exact center of the spell formation formed by the seven lamps.

After a short while, there was a secret room with a few pills and herbs. If these items were to be taken out, each one would be considered expensive. However, Xiao Qianhan only took a glance at them before shifting her gaze away. Chen Ancestor didn't know when he would return, but time was of the essence. She had to find out the situation below before Chen Ancestor returns, and find out what the suppressed aura was!

Ever since she entered the Chen family residence, the feeling of being summoned became more distinct, especially when she was close to Chen Ancestor's room. She even suspected that it was the suppressed aura that was calling her. Now it seemed even more so.

Just what was emitting that aura? Why did it make her feel like she was being summoned?

Xiao Qianhan slightly frowned, and her gaze swept across the secret room one by one. Just then, Xiao Miao suddenly scuttled out and quickly climbed up one of the walls. When it reached the height of a person, it directly shattered a brick in front of them and crawled through the crack that was revealed. Then, it carried a small white porcelain bottle and brought it in front of Xiao Qianhan.

Xiao Qianhan's gaze immediately turned serious. The suppressed aura was emanating from the bottle!

Found it!

Joy flashed past her eyes as she stretched her hand out to take it. The porcelain bottle gave her a very familiar feeling when she held it in her hand. This was the first time she had touched this porcelain bottle, but it felt as though she had touched it thousands of times. It was extremely familiar.

An extremely pure wave was emitted from the bottle. This fluctuation was similar to Spiritual Energy fluctuations. However, the purity of it was far greater than the Spiritual Energy fluctuations. Even the purest Spiritual Energy fluctuations could not compare to it.

Just what was this thing? In the memories of her past life, she actually did not have any information about this item.

With a slight frown, she opened the bottle to take a look. But her hand stopped halfway up.

There was a restriction on the stopper, and it was a warning restriction. As long as the cork is removed, the person who left behind the restriction will be informed immediately. If nothing unexpected happened, that person was without a doubt the Chen Ancestor. Not only that, there was also a chain of restrictions on the bottle stopper that had been placed in the entire secret room. If the porcelain bottle left the secret room, the restriction would be triggered.

A restriction chain? Xiao Qianhan secretly raised her eyebrows. So what if she triggered this restriction?

She must take this porcelain bottle with her!

Thinking of this, she took the bottle and rushed into the tunnel. In just a breath's time, she had arrived at the entrance. The next second, he was out of the tunnel, but the hand holding the bottle, including the bottle, was still in the tunnel. Not only that, there were also waves of strong resistance coming from the bottle, as if preventing it from leaving.

Xiao Qianhan's brows sunk. She once again swept her gaze towards the seven oil lamps from the corner of her eyes, and understood what was going on. She thought of that formation, the Seven Stars Array, which was specifically used to suppress the soul and prevent it from leaving its designated area.

This formation was actually effective against the porcelain bottle in his hand. Could it be that the pure energy in the porcelain bottle was from someone's soul? Whose soul actually possessed such great strength!?

She didn't have much time to think about it. Since she could see that this was a Seven Stars Arrays, she had to break them as soon as possible and leave with the porcelain bottles. If they waited for Chen Ancestor to appear, it would not be easy for them to leave.

The Seven Stars Arrays did not just destroy the seven oil lamps. On the contrary, once a single oil lamp was extinguished, the Seven Stars Arrays would become a deathtrap, never to be broken. The suppressed soul will never see the light of day again. The true method was to change the direction of the seven oil lamps and open the formation. Only then would the suppressed souls be able to leave successfully.

Xiao Qianhan could only leave the porcelain bottles behind for Xiao Miao to watch and quickly move the oil lamps in the room. The requirements to break the array formation were extremely strict. The order in which it was moved, the position, and not even the slightest mistake could be made. This was also the reason that breaking the array formation required a certain amount of time.

A quarter of an hour later, there was only one step left to break the Seven Stars Arrays. She had just touched the last oil lamp when she heard a gust of wind outside and the door was immediately shattered by it. An old man's figure appeared at the door.

"Tsk tsk!" Little girl, you're quite daring! I didn't expect you to actually know Seven Star Arrays at such a young age. "If it wasn't for the fact that I did everything smoothly and found the Spirit Grass early, today, you, a young person, would have found an opening." An extremely aged voice came from the figure, and his gloomy voice was filled with a bone-piercing strangeness.

Xiao Qianhan turned her head and looked at Chen Ancestor, her eyes narrowing. At the same time, her hands moved without stopping, returning the last oil lamp to its original position. Seven Stars Arrays Break!

When she left today, she had already changed her appearance, and was no longer Cui Xiyan.

Chen Ancestor didn't have the slightest intention to stop him as he watched Xiao Qianhan break the Seven Stars Formation. The moment the formation was broken through, his figure suddenly exploded. In the blink of an eye, he appeared two steps away from the entrance of the tunnel. His gaze was fixated on the white porcelain bottle inside.

The last oil lamp was the furthest from the entrance, so even if Xiao Qianhan used all her strength, it would be useless. It looked like the white porcelain bottle was about to enter Chen Ancestor's hands once again.

Looking at the porcelain bottle that was almost within reach, the old ancestor of the Cheng family curled the corner of his lips coldly. After he obtains the porcelain bottle, he will interrogate that reckless girl!

The distant Xiao Qianhan, on the other hand, didn't have the slightest intention to snatch it. Not only that, she took the opportunity to run outside.

Glancing over, the Chen family's old man sneered in his heart. You want to live? That would depend on whether he was willing or not. In the next second, his expression changed because his hand had actually missed!
