Chapter 985: Nine hundred and eighty-three, power

"Boom! Boom!" The sounds echoed continuously.

Xun Haotian, Ouyang Hai, and a group of elders stood on the observation deck, staring at the formation gradually merging in mid-air. Their faces were filled with excitement, anticipation, and exhilaration.

During these past few days, they had been closely observing Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo setting up the formation. Whether it was their techniques or the speed at which they carried out the setup, both left them in awe!

"If we could get their guidance, the disciples of the Formation Pavilion would undoubtedly benefit immensely in their formation skills."

"But there are only two days left now; there’s simply not enough time."

"If only they weren’t leaving. Alas!"

Xun Haotian glanced at the discussing elders and said, "We just need to follow the plan step by step. The future of the Liangyi Sect will certainly not be inferior to the Top Ten Sects." The plan he had discussed with Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo was utterly perfect, filling him with confidence.

"I must say, they truly are extraordinarily talented."

"I wonder what other skills they possess besides formations."

"If they also excel in alchemy or artifact refining, then we’d truly have no excuse left."

"Boom!" With a resounding noise, the formation closed perfectly. The already dense immortal spirit energy became even richer at that moment.

Everyone couldn’t help but take a deep breath. The sensation of being bathed in immortal spirit energy was utterly amazing, making them yearn to start cultivating immediately.

In setting up the formation this time, Xun Haotian hadn’t withheld anything. The immortal spirit vein and top-quality immortal crystals obtained from the selection competition were all handed over to Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo for the setup. A sect’s Mountain Protection Array is of utmost importance.

Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo stepped up to Xun Haotian, and Luo Shu handed him a formation map. "Sect Leader! This is the layout map of the Mountain Protection Array, which contains 3,243 formations. Notably, I have incorporated 108 talisman arrays on the sect’s perimeter, ensuring it will be as indestructible as a fortress."

Xun Haotian accepted the map and, guided by Luo Shu’s explanation, studied it intently. The more he looked, the more shocked he felt. Even as a Level Four Immortal Array Master himself, he couldn’t identify a single flaw in the formations on the map and had no idea how he would go about breaking them.

"Sect Leader, you can test the formation’s power," Luo Shu indicated toward a particular area, "Place the formation flag at this spot."

"Alright!" Xun Haotian nodded eagerly, took out the formation flag, and threw it to the designated position as directed by Luo Shu.

Suddenly, the weather shifted dramatically; lightning flashed, thunder roared, fierce winds raged, and an overpowering atmosphere of bloodlust and terror filled the entire space.

"My heavens!" Everyone was dumbfounded at the scene before them, their hearts filled with immense shock.

Compared to the previous formation, this one was unfathomably more powerful. They were certain that even a cultivator at Senior Immortal Cultivation would face only death if they entered the formation. The sheer strength of this formation exceeded all expectations, rendering them speechless.

"Sect Leader!" Luo Shu directed his gaze at Xun Haotian.

Xun Haotian snapped back to reality, raised his hand to retrieve the formation flag, and instantly, the space returned to serenity and tranquility, as though the earlier chaos was merely an illusion.

Xun Haotian looked at Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo with elation. "This is wonderful! With this formation in place, we won’t fear a sneak attack by the Desolated Mountain Sword Sect anymore." Initially, he had harbored some apprehension about Shui Yixun, but now, with this formation, what was there still to worry about?

Ouyang Hai, along with the elders and disciples present, was equally thrilled as they gazed at Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, their hearts brimming with admiration and gratitude. When the duo had proposed to reconstruct the Mountain Protection Array, while they had been hopeful, they hadn’t anticipated the sheer height of skill Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo possessed in formations. This Mountain Protection Array might surpass even those of the Top Ten Sects.

The commotion caused by the Liangyi Sect’s efforts to set up the formation spread far and wide, especially with rivals keeping watch. It wasn’t long before news of the Mountain Protection Array’s reconstruction reached various ears.

Shui Yixun was meditating with his eyes closed when there came a knocking at his door.

"Come in!" Shui Yixun opened his eyes. Just thinking about that day’s events made his blood boil. How could a dignified Sect Leader like him be threatened by a young girl? How could he possibly swallow such humiliation?

Once the 1,000 selected disciples depart for the Earth Realm and the matter blows over, he would make sure the Liangyi Sect paid dearly. Recruiting disciples? So what? They were nothing but a rabble. Would the Desolated Mountain Sword Sect ever fear them?

"Sect Leader! We’ve just received word that the Liangyi Sect’s Mountain Protection Array has been reconstructed, and the commotion this time was no small matter," reported the subordinate who had entered. Ever since the embarrassing episode involving their Sect Leader at the Liangyi Sect, they had assigned people to keep an eye on the sect.

"Reconstructing the Mountain Protection Array—do they think that’s enough?" Shui Yixun sneered coldly. The Sea Realm’s most skilled Level Five Immortal Array Master, Han Bai, was part of their Desolated Mountain Sword Sect.

"Sect Leader, should we continue monitoring them?" asked the subordinate.

"Call Elder Han Bai over," Shui Yixun instructed. The Liangyi Sect must think their Mountain Protection Array is impenetrable; he’ll have it shattered in front of them.

"Understood!" The subordinate exited promptly. Shortly thereafter, a pale-faced cultivator walked in.

"Sect Leader!" Han Bai greeted respectfully.

"Have a seat," Shui Yixun gestured toward the chair beside him.

Han Bai nodded and sat down at Shui Yixun’s side.

"Have you heard about the Liangyi Sect reconstructing their Mountain Protection Array?" Shui Yixun asked.

"I just heard about it," Han Bai nodded.

"Tonight, take a group of disciples and head to the Liangyi Sect. Break their Mountain Protection Array," Shui Yixun ordered. He was eager to see Xun Haotian’s reaction to having his freshly constructed array destroyed.

"Understood!" Han Bai agreed. He was curious to see how formidable the Liangyi Sect’s new formation truly was.

Meanwhile, other sects began receiving news of the Liangyi Sect’s reconstructed Mountain Protection Array.

In the council chamber of the Magpie Mountain Sect, three men were sipping tea as they discussed sect affairs.

"The Liangyi Sect is stirring up a lot of fuss this time, recruiting disciples and reconstructing their Mountain Protection Array. Do they really think they’ve ascended to the ranks of the major sects?"

"Those small sects are always clueless about the world. Gaining even a shred of progress, they start acting all stuck-up."

"Rumor has it there’s some animosity between the Desolated Mountain Sword Sect and the Liangyi Sect. There’s speculation that the Desolated Mountain Sword Sect might send Han Bai to dismantle the Liangyi Sect’s Mountain Protection Array."

"Such mere clowns are unworthy of our attention."

Within the Zhenxing Sect.

"The Liangyi Sect reconstructing their Mountain Protection Array is certainly intriguing."

"I haven’t heard of any skilled Immortal Array Masters at the Liangyi Sect—it’s likely just reinforcing their original array."

"Take two people with you to investigate."

"Understood!"
