Chapter 52: Chapter 51: Taiyi Liangyi Formation, Chen Chang’an’s Expectation (Additional update! Seeking to read further)_1

"Sword Mountain? What kind of place is that, Senior Brother?"

Mao Ruxue asked, puzzled.

Chen Chang’an replied:

"Just mention it to Elder Bai and the others when the time comes, they will take you there."

"If you’re lucky, you could end up picking a decent divine sword there."

"Hmm, a divine sword." Chen Chang’an nodded.

"According to their market value, some of the good swords there could be worth thousands of Dao Source Stones."

"Worth thousands of Dao Source Stones?!"

As soon as she heard Dao Source Stones, Mao Ruxue instantly perked up, and her eyes lit up.

"Yeah, the price is about right."

Chen Chang’an was not lying.

The so-called Sword Mountain is a secret place within the Tianshui Sect.

It was once the place where a Seventh Realm sword master had fallen.

Latterly claimed by the Tianshui Sect.

Under the effects of the natural heavenly transformation and earthly nourishment, it turned into a Sword Mountain after countless years of sedimentation.

It’s considered a commendable treasure trove gifted by heaven.

The swords there seemed a bit low-level for Chen Chang’an.

But they were just right for Mao Ruxue.

"Oh, I understand, Senior Brother."

Mao Ruxue nodded, seeming to half understand.

"Then I’ll go back and talk to Elder Bai."

"By the way, Senior Brother, this is the flying boat that Elder Bai gave me."

"Should it stay on the mountain?"

Having said that, Mao Ruxue presented the flying boat in her hand to Chen Chang’an.

"No need, you can use it yourself." Chen Chang’an shook his head.

The flying boat gifted by Bai Yunzi would only be counted as a junior-rank heavenly boat. This kind of flying boat, its speed could match that of a Fourth Realm cultivator at best.

It was of no use to him.

In the past, Chen Chang’an hadn’t even considered getting a flying boat.

However, Mao Ruxue’s suggestion ignited the idea of having his own flying boat.

After all, if he were to explore the world ’after living for a hundred years,’ he couldn’t simply rely on walking or flying, right?

That would be a bit too much of a show-off.

Of course, the flying boat that Chen Chang’an was thinking of would not be like Mao Ruxue’s.

That one was too low-level. If he were to get one, it would have to be a top-notch, superior one.

"Oh, thank you, Senior Brother."

Seeing that Chen Chang’an really let her keep the flying boat, Mao Ruxue’s eyes crinkled up in laughter.

Originally, she accepted Bai Yunzi’s kindness, taking the flying boat as a mascot treasure of Daoist Secrets Mountain.

She is planning to leave it to Senior Brother Chen Chang’an for safekeeping.

As for her using it, she would have to wait until ’after a hundred years’.

But to her surprise, Senior Brother directly handed the flying boat over to her.

In that moment, Mao Ruxue truly felt a huge wave of happiness.

She recalled the disciples she saw this morning at Tianshui Peak, who were showing off about how well they were doing. With hands clasped behind their backs, they were laughing gently, their smiles stretching into crescent shapes.

Even if you have powerful senior brothers and masters, so what? I have a senior brother who cares about me the most, hehe.

"Then Senior Brother, I’ll be on my way." In the midst of her joy, Mao Ruxue chuckled merrily again, bidding farewell to Chen Chang’an.

"Hmm, go ahead." Chen Chang’an nodded.

In a short while, Mao Ruxue once again left, taking the flying boat with her.

Chen Chang’an watched for a long time, until Mao Ruxue’s flying boat disappeared into the horizon, then he withdrew his gaze.

He stopped the reading action in his hand.

"It looks like I need to refine this formation."

Chen Chang’an thought to himself.

The formation he had set up was purely defensive, but it didn’t take into account the people on his side.

Take Mao Ruxue just now, for instance. If it weren’t for the fact that he was on the mountain and managed to conceal the formation in time, she might have been injured by triggering it.

In no time, Chen Chang’an took out dozens of materials from the space and began to absorb himself in work at various places on Daoist Secrets Mountain.

Only after working for more than half an hour did he finally finish.

If you stand at the foot of the mountain and look up now, you will notice that the entire Daoist Secrets Mountain is engulfed by a large formation.

Above the formation, strands of Dao Qi drifted and permeated, exuding an unparalleled momentum that intimidated all the heavens.

This was not a single array but a Zhoutian array made up of dozens of Sixth Realm killing formations combined with five Seventh Realm main formations.

In addition to these main killing arrays, Chen Chang’an also set up a Taiyi Bagua Array as the array center.

Taiyi Bagua Array, an unparalleled array for those at the Eighth Stage.

The array takes the form of Yin and Yang, it automatically changes according to the malicious intent of the person approaching.

If the person has no killing intent, the array appears white, with no movement!

If the person harbors killing intent, the array turns black, black representing Heaven, which emits a killing aura!

The greater the approaching person’s malicious intent, the more lethal the array becomes, with the highest potential level being the simultaneous activation of countless supreme arrays.

It was a terrifying thing!

Chen Chang’an was confident.

Under the combined power of so many arrays, even if someone were to forcefully break in,

Even the ancient powerhouses would lose a layer of skin!

With all that done, Chen Chang’an finally returned to the mountain to resume his leisurely life.

Time flew by and in the blink of an eye, a month passed.

During this month, several things happened.

The first was when Mao Ruxue brought back the cultivation method one day, she became one of the current instructors among the disciples.

Not only disciples, but also sect elders listened to her, and sometimes even Supreme Elders attended to audit her teachings.

After being taught by Mao Ruxue, you could observe people practicing their alluring dance moves everywhere in the Tianshui Sect every day over nearly a month.

Showing off their skills.

Regardless of gender.

As a result, Chen Chang’an dared not descend the mountain for the entire month.

He was afraid of seeing something that would hurt his eyes.

After all these people studied it, the "Original Spirit Solution" had many issues exposed.

Not everyone could master this technique well, and the level of mastery had a certain relationship with natural talent.

At present, only three people could reach Mao Ruxue’s level.

The first was Bai Yunzi, the second was Sect Master Li Daoran, and the third was the Supreme Elder who had been in a long closed-door session.

As for the others, either their cultivation was slightly lacking or they simply couldn’t learn it.

In any case, it varied from person to person.

Among them, Li Daoran and the others kept their promise to Chen Chang’an and allowed Mao Ruxue to visit Sword Mountain.

At Sword Mountain, Mao Ruxue became the recognized master of an Immortal Sword named ’Qinghong’.

The Qinghong Sword, an Immortal-level Divine Sword bred within the Sword Domain, carrying a fragment of the sword heritage of its previous Sword Master.

With the blessing of the Qinghong Sword, Mao Ruxue, despite being at the Second Realm, can already perform Sword Flight.

Of course, most of the time, the sword is controlling the person.

The third thing that happened was that Chen Chang’an made a breakthrough.

After persistently grinding for several days, the Eighth layer of "Divine Demon Dao Secrets" was brought out from the "Grand Daoist Secrets".

In one effort, he leveled up the "Divine Demon Dao Secrets" to the Eighth Layer.

At this point, Chen Chang’an has reached the Eighth Level in five techniques.

Next, Chen Chang’an planned to turn his attention to the Ninth Level.

While Eighth Stage powerhouses are indeed unparalleled in this world,

There is a Ninth Stage beyond the Eighth Stage.

Compared with the invincibility of the Eighth Stage, it is the existence of the Ninth Stage who truly overlook the course of time.
