Chapter 428: Chapter 392: The Suddenly Arrived Catastrophe

Early the next morning, Wang Zijia and several women went about their usual routine of punching and eating breakfast.

"The array construction for various functional buildings in the core area of the Vein is almost done, and the final inspection is due today. Do you want to check on it?" Xiang Feifei asked while they were eating breakfast.

Unlike her panicky and clueless self from two months ago, she was now adept at handling tasks related to the running of the Vein, showing signs of a powerful female leader.

"I’ll pass. Since I’ve entrusted you with this, you should see it through to the end," Wang Zijia replied casually, without interrupting his meal, and gave Xiang Feifei a smile.

"Alright." Xiang Feifei looked at Wang Zijia and added, "I’m a bit worried that if anything is not done correctly, and we need them to come back, we might have to pay them Magic money!"

"No worries. If anything is overlooked, I’ll just go to the Dean of the Formation Institute, and it’ll be fixed. Pill, Artifact, Formation, Talisman—we in four institutes are like a family, the senior brothers will give us face," Wang Zijia replied while smiling and giving Feifei a reassuring pill, "Once you finish your task, I plan to visit the Artifact Academy today."

"·······"

After the two chatted while finishing breakfast, Xiang Feifei left for mountain construction work. And Wang Zijia headed to the White Peach Tower.

"Good morning, Vein Master!"

"Good morning, Vein Master!"

"Good morning, Brother Sixteen!"

An Xingsheng, Xu Xian, and Xiang Yu had been waiting early for Wang Zijia.

Wang Zijia responded with a slight nod, received some documents from An Xingsheng, and worked on them for a while. Once he was done with most of the work,

Instead of choosing to take a break, Wang Zijia gave a few instructions to An Xingsheng and left White Peach Tower. He threw the Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle into the sky, his entire body turned into a blood-colored streamer, and he flew towards the Sect.

······

A quarter of an hour later, Wang Zijia arrived at the base of Qifeng Mountain, the location of the Artifact Academy’s building complex.

Wang Zijia didn’t descend at the designated landing area—he used the Escape Light to move directly towards Qiu Liangong’s Terrain Park.

With Wang Zijia’s status and identity, he no longer needed to tread carefully while spending his days in the Outer Sect.

Some rules could be flexible, and he could make a few exceptions without any repercussions.

Upon arriving at Qiu Liangong’s Terrain Park, Wang Zijia discovered that the place had returned to its original meticulous state, with no traces of the previous bombings.

"Greetings, Martial Uncle Wang!" Bai Yu rushed over just as Wang Zijia descended, respectfully greeting him.

Bai Yu’s gaze stealthily swept over Wang Zijia, curiosity flashing in his eyes.

When Wang Zijia had just been promoted to the rank of Sacrificial Wine, he had interacted with Bai Yu.

In less than a year, while Bai Yu’s cultivation had barely changed, Wang Zijia had already become a Perfected. The transformation was truly dramatic.

Wang Zijia returned his nod, acknowledging him, and moved straight into his purpose, he asked, "Where’s Brother Liangong?"

Before Bai Yu could answer, Qiu Liangong also walked out of the tower at a brisk pace. Seeing Wang Zijia, he smiled and said, "Good timing. If you had arrived any later, you would have had to hand it over to the brothers of the Formation Institute!"

"Why?" Wang Zijia asked, puzzled, though he had a hunch.

"I will head into seclusion in the Inner Sect for a period of time. After I’m out, I’ll likely go straight to Moon Demon Cliff. I estimate that I won’t be able to come back for at least two or three years," Qiu Liangong said directly without reservation, revealing his itinerary.

"Did you succeed in researching your Magic tool, Brother?" Wang Zijia asked.

Qiu Liangong nodded, a smile tinged with pride on his face as he said, "It seems so, but its effects can only be confirmed after it’s deployed in a real battlefield."

Wang Zijia bowed courteously, "In that case, I offer my early congratulations for your success, Brother!"

"Ha-ha!" Qiu Liangong laughed heartily, "I accept your good wishes!"

While they were talking, Qiu Liangong walked a few steps towards the courtyard and threw something in his arms outside.

A building sprouted quickly on an open platform outside the courtyard, reaching the height of several meters in a moment.

This was an unusual sculpture-like building. The lower half was a single unit, and the upper half resembled Wang Zijia. Wang Zijia’s figure was in a pose with one hand placed at the back and another one in front, holding an imaginary square-shaped Jade Pendant.

The Taoist robe fluttered as if gazing into the distance, a special temperament of indifference to worldly affairs and questioning human existence emanated from the sculpture.

"How do you like it?" Standing in front of the sculptural building, Qiu Liangong asked somewhat smugly, "I have been in charge of the construction of Channel Stabilizing Devices for many years now. Your device is quite unique."

"Although this is not the first sculpture-like Channel Stabilizing Building, it is definitely the most memorable one."

Wang Zijia smiled as he thoroughly inspected the building.

He then followed Qiu Liangong inside the building.

The main entrance of the building was placed at the foot. However, considering this, the sculpture from the waist downwards was not the shape of legs but columnar construction.

The entire spiritual tool construction had a total of seven floors, which was ample spacewise.

"Are you dissatisfied with any aspect?" After a while, the three of them had roughly explored the building, Qiu Liangong asked.

"I’m very satisfied, thank you for your effort, Brother." Wang Zijia, his face filled with joy, looked at Qiu Liangong, "Do you have some free time today, Brother? Why don’t we place the object on my site?"

Despite being a spiritual tool, it was also the foundation of an array. Once it was positioned, it should not be moved frequently. That’s why it was called the Channel Stabilizing Utensil.

With Wang Zijia’s cultivation and knowledge, he certainly could accomplish the integration and connection to the Sect’s Great Array independently.

However, he had never done it before. To be on the safe side, he wanted to involve Qiu Liangong in the process.
