Chapter 1145: Chapter 1145: If Someone Gives Me an Inch, I’ll Return a Mile

Ning Fan’s character was just like this.

If someone gave me an ounce of kindness, I would return it tenfold.

The grace of a spring should be repaid with endless streams of water.

Although the Formation Spirit helped him because of his mother’s identity, in Ning Fan’s view, the benefits of this help ultimately fell upon himself.

So no matter what, he would not let the Formation Spirit dissolve into nothingness.

Upon hearing these words, the Formation Spirit couldn’t help but give a wry smile, "Young fellow, do you know that I am nothing more than a Formation Spirit, existing solely because of the Spiritual Technique? Wanting me not to disappear is a very difficult task."

The Man in the Black Mist also spoke in a low voice, "Kid, this old guy isn’t lying to you. He has lost the Spiritual Technique that serves as his core, which is equivalent to the most crucial element of this Formation being removed. If you want to help him continue to sustain himself, you will need to find something of the same level as the Four Symbols Eight Trigrams Palm."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Even if it’s not exactly the same level, even slightly lower would suffice. But such things in Kunlun..."

He didn’t finish his sentence, but the implication was that it was very difficult to find.

After all, the Man in the Black Mist had devoured cultivators from within Kunlun and knew many of its secret affairs.

From the standpoint of its level, the Four Symbols Eight Trigrams Palm was already powerful enough to make the Five Great Sects eager to compete and fight for it.

The Five Great Sects also had Spiritual Techniques, but none of them could match its might.

"How can you be so sure?" Shen Ning unconsciously inquired, "Have you seen the Spiritual Techniques of the Five Great Sects?"

At these words, a surge of black qi suddenly rose from the Man in the Black Mist’s body, unleashing a fierce and mighty aura.

He turned his head and stared coldly at Shen Ning, "By virtue of having devoured the cultivators from the Five Great Sects, isn’t that reason enough?"

In an instant, the four Sect Masters felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, a thick chill creeping up their backs, causing their hair to stand on end.

"Alright, don’t scare them anymore." Ning Fan waved his hand, signaling the Man in the Black Mist to withdraw his formidable presence.

The Man in the Black Mist snorted coldly and slowly dispersed the dark menacing aura.

Shen Ning immediately felt as if he had received a pardon, collapsing to the ground, gasping for breath.

The other three Sect Masters were also sweating profusely from the back, glaring angrily at Shen Ning.

Why the hell did you have to provoke this ferocious god?

Seeing the determination in Ning Fan’s eyes, the old man had a moment of déjà vu, as if he saw his old master standing before him again.

"I want those old men to know that as long as it’s something I wish to do, there’s nothing I can’t achieve!"

Back then, that woman with the surname Long, after setting up the Formation, had roared with lofty pride towards the heavens.

The Formation Spirit did not know who the master was speaking to at the time, nor did he know who the "old men" she referred to were.

But the Formation Spirit only knew that the Ning Fan in front of him was almost exactly like the former master.

"He’s so much alike..." the Formation Spirit fell silent for a long while, a relieved smile appearing on his face, "If this is the case, then this old servant looks forward to the young master’s success in fulfilling his desires. I thank the young master here."

In front of everyone, the Formation Spirit actually knelt on one knee, expressing his submission to Ning Fan.

Only at this moment did he truly recognize this young master.

The four Sect Masters also opened their mouths wide, looking at Ning Fan with astonishment on their faces.

What kind of charm did this boy possess? First, he subdued the Man in the Black Mist, and then this fearsome old man also acknowledged him as master.

"Elder, I truly cannot accept such a grand gesture!"

Ning Fan hurried forward to help the Formation Spirit up.

For Ning Fan, the Formation Spirit was like the subordinates who had followed his mother, his elders, who naturally deserved respect.

"You heal first; I will have a good talk with Elder Formation Spirit."

Ning Fan turned to Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng and the others, then walked aside with the Formation Spirit.

"Young master, there is really no need to go to such lengths for an old servant like me." The old man sighed and said, "To have lived to see the young master is an unexpected joy for me, and now that I have entrusted the Spiritual Technique to the young master, I have also fulfilled one of the old master’s wishes."

"Elder, no more words are needed. Just tell me what you need to continue to exist," Ning Fan said gravely.

On the way over, the Formation Spirit’s figure had already begun to become ethereal.

It was likely that when the Formation collapsed, the Formation Spirit would dissipate on the spot as well.

Seeing Ning Fan’s insistence, the Formation Spirit had no choice but to list the things he needed in detail.

"This Formation was personally set up by my master, many of the materials used were brought by her from the outside, and cannot be found in Kunlun. Also, the master expended great effort in setting up this Formation—many of the Formation patterns have been worn away over time."

"I can handle the matter of the Formation patterns," Ning Fan said gravely. "I inherited my mother’s legacy, and all her life’s knowledge about Formations is in my mind."

The old man’s eyes brightened, "Is that so? It seems the old master had left preparations for the future. If that’s the case, then we just need to find replacements for those rare materials and treasures."

Although the Formation Spirit had been in the Secret Realm for so many years and had grown indifferent to life and death,

he would not easily give up the chance to continue existing.

Any being with a spiritual intelligence inherently longed for life.

The old man then informed Ning Fan of the replacements for the rare materials and treasures used in setting up the Formation.

"Young master, these are the replacements for rare materials and treasures that can be found in Kunlun to use for the Formation."

Ning Fan noted down everything he said, then expressed his concerns, "Before I find these items, will you be able to preserve yourself?"
