Chapter 174 Bolide
"Brother, I'm not a god who has descended to the earth, but it's not too difficult to summon a shooting star! Xiyao! Get ready! The shooting star will be here soon! Don't miss the time to make a wish!" Liu Feiyun couldn't help but gently scratched Liu Xiyao's white little nose and said with a smile.
As soon as Liu Feiyun finished speaking, three red lanterns suddenly rose up on Wangliu Peak several miles away, but they looked very small because of the distance.
Liu Xiyao immediately had an expression that said, "As expected, my brother is lying."
But then, several lines of fire suddenly flew out from Wangliu Peak, slanting straight into the sky, and the number of fire lines continued to increase. In a blink of an eye, they increased from a few to more than ten, dozens, and nearly a hundred, and then they stopped increasing.
"Meteors... They are really meteors... Fiery red meteors... So many fiery meteors!... So many!... So beautiful..." At this time, Liu Xiyao opened her mouth in shock, and then she jumped for joy and shouted excitedly!
The others were also stunned for a moment, staring blankly at nearly a hundred fiery red lights streaking across the night sky.
At this moment, the area where the red light of the fire can be seen is no longer limited to the compound where Liu Shihao and his wife live, but the entire area with a radius of nearly ten miles around Wangliu Peak. Such a large area is enough to cover half of the territory, and within this range, countless people looked up at the fire line across the night sky! No, the fire line is slowly getting thicker and brighter, but it is also flying faster and faster, flying higher and higher, and slowly flying and dissipating!
"Silly girl, hurry up and make a wish. If you slow down any further, these meteors will disappear!" Liu Feiyun suddenly urged.
After hearing this, Liu Xiyao stopped jumping and shouting, clasped her hands to her chest, closed her eyes, and made a wish quietly.
Seeing her like this, the maids and servants who were waiting on the side followed suit and boldly imitated her! Even the soldiers on duty, although they remained motionless, looked at the flying lines of fire with bright eyes.
As those fire lines turned into fire snakes, the brightness and speed reached a peak, then the brightness quickly dimmed, and the flying speed gradually slowed down again, followed by one after another dimming until they disappeared completely.
Soon, these fire snakes were extinguished one after another, until the last one flew into the air in front of the Earl's Palace, and then they all disappeared.
Liu Feiyun looked relaxed on the surface, but in fact, he had finally let go of his nervousness.
"Meteor!? This is not a meteor at all! This is a crystal killing formation that has been lost since ancient times! I didn't expect it! Those crazy people in the Sky-penetrating Pavilion actually reconstructed these crystal killing formations! No wonder! No wonder! No wonder you asked for so many crystals from your mother a few days ago, and said they were used to develop spiritual armor! It turns out that these were just the beginning of your research and development of the crystal killing formation!" Liu Shihao suddenly said, looking at the night sky that had returned to normal.
Chu Bihe was stunned at first, but then laughed and said, "So that's how it is! Yun'er! Tell me quickly, how powerful is this legendary crystal killing array! Is it worth spending so many crystals to develop it?"
Liu Feiyun first stared at his parents staring at him in amazement, then looked around at the soldiers, guards, servants, and maids around his family, and said hesitantly: "This... that... these meteors..."
Liu Shihao said nonchalantly: "Your mother asked you, so just tell the truth! Those present are the most loyal people to our Liu family, they all know what to say and what not to say! Just tell me now!"
Seeing his parents say so, Liu Feiyun seemed to have thought of something, so he said seriously: "Yes, this so-called fire meteor is indeed not a real meteor, but a crystal killing array that has been lost since ancient times. When I was in the Sky-penetrating Pavilion of the Miyun Sect, I was fortunate to meet several old predecessors who had studied the ancient crystal killing array. I got some of their true teachings, and then I researched and restored a simplified version of the killing array, which is the fire meteor we saw tonight."
"So it really is the legendary crystal killing formation! How powerful is this crystal killing formation? Does it cost crystals?" Chu Bihe looked as if something had suddenly occurred to her, but then continued to ask.
Liu Feiyun replied with a look of inadequacy and pain: "The killing array we saw today is just a simplified version of a residual array. Naturally, its power is not very strong, and it can only cause damage to cultivators below the level of Cultivator Lord. Moreover, it consumes a lot of crystals. Each fire meteor is a killing array, which consumes one or two red crystals! These nearly one hundred fire meteors are nearly one hundred red crystals!"
"One hundred taels of red crystal? That's one thousand taels of gold! Ten thousand taels of silver! Little brother! You spent ten thousand taels of silver all at once just to make me happy! You are such a spendthrift!" The third sister Liu Xinxin said sarcastically, and even Chu Bihe on the side nodded, indicating that she agreed with her statement.
Liu Feiyun said helplessly: "There is nothing we can do about this! The restoration of this crystal killing array requires a large number of crystals to verify repeatedly! Take this residual array for example! As early as when I was in the Sky Viewing Pavilion, I modified the arrangement of the array dozens of times, and it was only by chance that it succeeded on the 35th time. After that, I further modified the array to make it more stable in activation and operation, and consume less crystals. The array arranged this time was finally finalized after thousands of thoughts. The reason why so many were arranged at once was, firstly, to see the success rate of the killing array, and secondly, to see whether the stability of the array operation was related to the details of the array! You should have seen it too! The power and stability of these killing arrays, that is, the brightness and duration of Mars, are different! Through this experiment, I am confident that I can arrange a more powerful killing array, enough to kill cultivators below the Heavenly Rank, and add another great weapon to our Liu family!"
Liu Shihao did not comment on Liu Feiyun's lengthy explanation. Instead, he looked around at the iron guards and servants and said sternly, "The matter of the crystal killing array must not be spread outside. If anyone leaks it, I will not let him even have the chance to go to the mine to mine. Do you understand?"
All the guards, bodyguards, slaves, and maids nodded in agreement!
Chu Bihe added, "But there must be quite a few people who saw this meteor tonight. Since this meteor looks like a fire dragon flying into the sky, if someone asks about what happened tonight, you can say that it was a red dragon from Wangliu Peak flying into the sky to herald good luck, indicating that the crisis of my Liu family's inheritance will be over and we can prosper for another hundred years!"
