Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 612 The Ancient Nature Curb

“The ancient nature curb?”

Lu Chun looked at Su Li with a completely different attitude from before, and he said smoothly, “The curb is born out of the tactical matrix, but it overmatches the tactical matrix. It is a more complex and powerful means of cultivation, but it was later lost...”

Lu Chun explained to Su Li patiently, but he didn’t know that Su Li had already mastered a curb.

The curb she mastered was learned from Ye Che, which was also a kind of ancient curb. It was called ghost curb, also known as ancient ghost curb. Although she had not fully understood it, she discovered the ancient ghost curb given by Ye Che was not complete.

Shengxue Sect was not well-known as the top holy sects. But there was an ancient curb in it!

What kind of curb was the nature curb? Could the ghost curb rival the nature curb?

“Su Jiuzhou, my Shengxue Sect still has the complete inheritance of the ancient nature curb, but no one has successfully inherited it. So, it has been retained until now. Now we are in the Dharma-ending Age, and it becomes harder and harder to inherit the ancient curb successively. Your talent is without parallel in history. Would you like to give it a try?”

Su Li smiled and nodded, “It’s a great honor.”

Lu Chun smiled happily with a little crafty look.

“You don’t belong to our sect, so you can’t inherit it. Su Jiuzhou, you are also a Grand Elder of a sect, whose status can match that of a Junior Emperor. If I let you be a disciple of my sect, it would be too difficult for you to accept it. You... Would you like to be worshipped as a Grand Elder of my sect? You can…stand on an equal footing with me without being restrained.”

Su Li smiled slightly, revealing her dimples. Then she said jokingly, “The condition given by Elder Chun is too generous. Only a fool will disagree!”

“Hahaha!”

Elder Chun laughed. And then he became a bit more anxious than Su Li, “I will let Xuan prepare your identity token. You go to the forbidden land with me now, and I will tell you how to inherit...”

Standing outside the ice cave, Lu Xuan was in a daze when he heard the old ancestor’s laughter.

Grand Elder Su was awesome. She could even make the reticent old ancestor laugh like that! What did she tell him?

The forbidden land of Shengxue Sect was covered by thick ice and snow all the year round, and there were no people in sight. Today, two figures appeared on the top of a high snow mountain.

Waving his sleeve, Lu Chun swept away the ice and snow. He made finger gestures with both hands and printed the rune on the exposed stone gate. Suddenly, there was a loud sound. The heavy stone gate opened from both sides, and a strange warm pneuma came from the cave.

“This can be regarded as the only warm place in the entire Shengxue Region.”

Lu Chun seemed to have not been here for a long time. He thought of something and smiled. Then he led Su Li into the cave.

Su Li was relaxed on the surface, but in fact, her divine awareness swept over the entire passage first.

“There are no curbs and tactical matrixes...”

Lu Chun didn’t know that she still remained vigilant, and he spoke while walking, “This place, full of ancient nature curb, can be regarded a test for the disciples of the sect. Later, there was a gap in the cultivation culture, and almost no one learned curbs. So, the test lost its significance and my master removed it. He only hoped that a disciple could understand the inheritance. Before coming here, the disciple must build good character except for being tested by curbs.”

Su Li listened quietly.

After a short while, Su Li paused and looked at the top of the cave that suddenly turned into the sky.

She couldn’t tell this skywas real or not. It seemed that there was a real sky existing in this cave. Then she activated the evil ghost to merge into her body. She could see that the sky suddenly became full of flaws.

At this moment, she thought of something.

Why did the natural law regard the body of the evil ghost as a thorn in the eye? Was...her evil ghost too strong to make the natural law nervous? Or...scared?

“Su Jiuzhou?”

Seeing Su Li standing still, Lu Chun couldn’t help but call out and then laughed, “Do you think this sky looks extremely like a real one? I just came here with the same expression as yours when I was young. Indeed, this sky is just an illusion made by the ancient nature curb.”

Su Li came to her senses and walked quickly to Lu Chun’s side, looking at a round tripod which was placed on the grassland under the sky.

“What should I do?”

“It’s easy.” Lu Chun pointed to the tripod. “Walk over and touch the tripod with your palm. Then... it hinges on your luck.”

“Really?”

Su Li glanced at Lu Chun quizzically, and he suddenly gave a wry smile, “That’s what my master told me, but then I...failed.”

“...”

Although Su Li thought Lu Chun’s words were unreliable, she walked to round tripod and place her palm on it. She waited—

After half an hour, the round tripod...had not changed at all.

Lu Chun sighed. Before he could speak, he saw that Su Li suddenly removed her palm and grabbed one of the round tripod’s ears. He was confused.

“Hum!!”

The round tripodsuddenly trembled slightly, and a white glow shot out of it.

Lu Chun swallowed and looked at Su Li who was absorbed inthat tripod. He muttered, “Is it possible that the ancient nature curb recognizes her?”

Standing in the distance, he didn’t see Su Li was divining with her dark black eyes of the evil ghost.

“Just like the sky, this round tripod itself is a complete nature curb as well.”

Light flashed through Su Li’s eyes. She lost in thought.

“As expected, the nature curb is really difficult to be inherited. Fortunately, the body of evil ghost can penetrate the appearance, and I have just learned the ghost curb, which belongs to the ancient curb. Otherwise, even if I can break its appearance, I still cannot unlock the tripod.”

Thinking of this, Su Li refocused on breaking the curb. She had studied the ancient ghost curb for a short time. It would still take her a long time to break it, even if she got the help of the evil ghost.

Lu Chun watched Su Li pat on the round tripod from a distance. At this moment, the round tripod became a dazzling treasure, and it became brighter and brighter as Su Li patted it.

He didn’t understand that.

At the beginning, he thought that the round tripod recognized its owner by itself. But now, it was clear that...Su Jiuzhou was trying to unlock the round tripod in a way that he couldn’t understand!

Su Jiuzhou...had mastered a curb before!

Lu Chun thought of something and then he let out a long sigh.

Each new generation exceled the last one...

At the same time, Ling Li had just arrived at Shengxue Region under the sunshine of a winter noon.

“Su Jiuzhou returned the Yin jade-bone mask to Buwang, so I couldn’t locate her. Could it be possible that she knows I am looking for her?”

Ling Li was puzzled and drew a long face.

When he arrived in Jiuzhou Region, he sent a message to Ling Mo, but Ling Mo did not respond. As a last resort, he could only sense the location of Yin jade-bone maskto find Su Jiuzhou. However, in the end, he arrived at Buwang’s residence and alarmed the big tactical matrix of Ni Sect.

The level of that big tactical matrix...could match that of Shengtian Shrine. Where did Su Jiuzhou get that big tactical matrix for protecting the Sect?

And the most excessive thing was that it blocked the communication between Ling Mo and him.

Judging from her abducting the entire Linli Building in Juecheng City, she must do it deliberately!

After a riot, he succeeded in getting rid of Ni Sect’s pursuers. Maybe Ling Mo was also alarmed. After Ling Li left the sect, Ling Mo sensed that Ling Li had contacted him and hurriedly chased him up.

After a conversation, Ling Li realized that Su Jiuzhou was not in the sect. Maybe she was in the big regions where Shengxue Region and Fenglei Holy Sect located.

He traveled day and night, and it only took him a day to reach Shengxue Region.

“Brother Hou, where did our boss go? I haven’t seen her for several days!”

Suddenly, Ling Li heard a conversation. He frowned and hided his body. He saw a few practitioners with low cultivation level coming.

“Who knows? Boss always likes to disappear. Don’t worry. She will be back in a few days. Maybe she and that peer have really gone to Shengxue Sect together. Boss is omnipotent. She must have a method to get into it.”

Ling Li was about to leave. But after hearing Shengxue Sect, he hesitated and chose to stay here to listen.

“The peer looks like Grand Elder Su so much with her makeup. The cultivation and appearance of our boss is still far away from hers.”

“Don’t say it in front of our boss!”

“I’m not stupid...”

“Do you know what happened in the tavern where we committed a fraud a few days ago? I heard that the peer slayed the killers from Xiuluo Holy Sect with one move. She is too powerful! Is she Grand Elder Su?”

“Impossible. The peer is so approachable. She is not like Grand Elder Su at all!”

Hou and the others started arguing. Suddenly, they found that the light in front of them dimmed and another person appeared. This person’s bloodline and cultivation petrified them. They trembled with pale faces.

Ling Li looked at the shivering crowd and waved his hand to conjure up Su Li’s image, “Is she the peer you mentioned?”

...

“It turns out to be a game of permutations and combinations. But it is troublesome to solve through the algorithm derived from the curb.”

Su Li broke out in a cold sweat with horribly bright eyes. She hit at the center of the round tripod’s facade.

The last step!

Snap!

The whole round tripod was like a fragile cage, shattering into pieces. And a ball of light shimmering with complicated streaks rose slowly. Lu Chun felt dizzy and drowsy after only one glance. He thought his lifespan was reduced.

“I can’t see that. There are too many ideas and thoughts in the inheritance...”

Lu Chun turned his back and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

Su Li’s eyes were clear. The light seemed to be alive. It stopped in front of Su Li, and then it slowly blended into her head through the area in the middle of her eyebrows. A gentle female voice sounded in her mind.

“The nature curb is the curb made by the nature! It divides an area which can shield the nature’s mystery and delude the natural law. Everything has its limits. You should make proper use of it. You are lucky. Remember what I tell you.”

Su Li’s eyes closed tightly. Then she sat cross-legged and tried to digest. The moment when she sat down, a chain of curb runes crawled up the entire cave like a spider web.

Lu Chun quickly stepped back, knowing that Su Li had the curb to protect her. She didn’t need him to be her protector.

When he was about to leave, the Lord of Shengxue Sect hurriedly transmitted the sound, “Old Ancestor, there is a person breaking into our sect. I can’t defend against his attack!”
