246: Tribes emerging from the Forbidden Abyss
Zhou Liyue had seen this Formation pattern countless times, but each time it brought her a different kind of shock.
"Out."
Zhou Liyue waved her hand.
Formation Flags were scattered around her.
"Hmm?"
Zhou Liyue's heart stirred slightly.
"The resistance is even a little less..."
When these Formation Flags were set, they would encounter great resistance.
That's why Zhou Liyue had called Zhou Leren to help.
It was just that over this period, the resistance had been decreasing every day.
The Formation Flags flew out.
Zhou Leren's Golden Core Stage magical power surged.
He stabilized the Formation Flags.
Without thinking much, Zhou Liyue used the Formation Flags as a brush to begin repairing the severely damaged Formation pattern.
On the other side, Zhou Xiuyuan, like Zhou Leren, stabilized the Formation Flags.
However, he did not find it as easy as Zhou Leren.
As the Formation patterns were slowly repaired, subtle spatial fluctuations began to emanate from the incomplete Formation.
Zhou Liyue and Yun Qingsi were in two different realms, simultaneously inscribing the Formation patterns.
A month later, Zhou Liyue and Yun Qingsi both stood up and retrieved their Formation Flags.
Zhou Leren and Zhou Xiuyuan also dispersed their magical power.
"How is it?" Mo Xuan asked.
"With Fellow Daoist Yun and my current Formation cultivation, we can only barely repair it to a Medium Grade second-tier level."
Zhou Liyue's Divine Sense and magical power were greatly depleted.
She had, after all, underestimated this cross-realm teleportation Formation.
She had originally thought it could be repaired to a High Grade second-tier level.
As a result, only Cultivators below the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment could use this teleportation Formation.
If their cultivation exceeded that, the Formation would surely collapse again.
"That's still very impressive," Zhou Leren said, coming forward and sighing with a clap of his hands.
In the Chenyuan Forbidden Land, Yun Qingsi looked at the teleportation Formation, which already had some presence, with a hint of surprise.
"Big Brother Zhou, we can go back."
Yun Qingsi smiled brightly.
This time, if not for Mo Xuan being able to communicate between the two realms, allowing Yun Qingsi and Zhou Liyue to interact and communicate, it certainly would not have been so smooth.
"Brother Shen will definitely be very happy if he hears this news," Zhou Xiuyuan said, his expression somewhat complex, but still quite joyful.
"I'll inform Brother Shen," Zhou Xiuyuan added.
With a flip of his hand, he took out a strangely shaped bronze mirror.
Magical power circulated, and the bronze mirror glowed.
"It's done."
Two seal characters appeared on the bronze mirror, then sank into the mirror surface and disappeared.
On Qingyang Peak, Shen Xuanzhao, who was stationed in the Sword Hall, stirred and took out an identical bronze mirror.
Seeing the characters appear on it, his expression changed.
However, he did not immediately leave, but remained stationed in the Sword Hall.
"We still need to refine the teleportation tokens," Yun Qingsi nodded, and re-immersed herself in work.
On the other side, Zhou Liyue also began to refine the teleportation tokens.
Zhou Leren and the precious bead flew out from underground.
"The 'Wilderness Reclamation' plan can begin," Mo Xuan's deep voice sounded, and then the precious bead disappeared.
In Cloud Dream Marsh, the precious bead appeared.
Zhou Leyi rushed to this place.
Several days later, a drumbeat sounded within the Zhou Family territory.
"What is this...?"
"Family Assembly Order!"
In various Spirit Peaks, Zhou Family Disciples, whether in secluded cultivation, practicing spells, cultivating spirit plants, or making talismans, all changed their expressions.
They headed towards their respective halls.
On Yaori Peak, in Guanpu Pavilion (Waterfall Viewing Pavilion), Li Shuwu heard the drumbeat and, after asking two maids, remained in Guanpu Pavilion (Waterfall Viewing Pavilion) without venturing out, despite her doubts.
In the Zhou Family's War Hall, a group of tall Zhou Family Disciples, whose bodies were covered in vigorous Qi and blood, assembled.
At the head of the hall, the War Hall Master Zhou Xiukang and Zhou Xiuyun stood.
Beside them stood a rugged and tall man.
This was Zhou Mingfang, who was the first to step onto The Way of the Totem.
Now, Zhou Mingfang's Qi and blood were incredibly powerful.
Even without activating his totem, the aura around his body was like a furnace.
Zhou Mingfang's cultivation already possessed strength comparable to the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.
If he were in the Barren Continent, he would be called a 'Barbarian King'.
He was the foremost person in the Zhou Family's The Way of the Totem, and also another Deputy Hall Master of the War Hall.
"The Family has ordered that all Cultivators above the Barbarian Warrior level should hand over their current tasks and gather here in ten days to carry out a Family mission."
After receiving a nod from Zhou Xiukang, Zhou Mingfang stepped forward, and streaks of dark totem patterns began to spread from his body.
Vaguely, they resembled a snake's body.
After the totem was activated, his Qi and blood surged into the sky, shaking people's souls.
"We obey the Family's order!"
Below, the Zhou Family Disciples activated their totems one by one and responded in unison.
In the other halls, tasks were also assigned.
Ten days later, in the Zhou Family's Ximing Peak's back mountain Forbidden Ground, the Formation Hall's Deputy Hall Master Zhou Xiuchang was stationed there.
Zhou Family Disciples, holding teleportation tokens, stepped into the teleportation Formation behind Zhou Xiuchang.
This was a second-tier directional teleportation Formation that Zhou Liyue had set up long ago to connect to that Old Land of teleportation.
"Buzz~"
Spatial fluctuations emanated.
Batch after batch of Zhou Family Disciples disappeared.
In the 'Old Land', Zhou Xiukang, Elder Beihai, Zhou Xiuqi, Zhou Xiuzhi, and Zhou Mingfang, five Zhou Family Cultivators of Foundation Establishment cultivation, appeared together.
Following them were the Disciples of the War Hall who were above the Barbarian Warrior level, as well as a small number of Disciples from the Dao Protection Hall and the Affairs Hall.
Zhou Xiuqi and Zhou Xiuzhi had also advanced to the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.
"Activate the Formation!"
At the bottom of the Old Land, as Zhou Liyue activated the cross-realm teleportation Formation, a sensation of spatial distortion emanated.
The Zhou Family Disciples present were well-disciplined, without the slightest chaos.
In the Xuanming Realm, dozens of figures appeared.
Upon seeing Zhou Xiuyuan and Yun Qingsi, the five Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Zhou Family led the Zhou Family Cultivators out of the Formation.
"Big Brother."
"Uncle."
"Elder."
Everyone bowed.
"Uncle Hai," Zhou Xiuyuan handed a token to Elder Beihai.
Elder Beihai took it and, after nodding to Zhou Xiuyuan, left with Zhou Xiukang for the Qingyang Sword Hall.
The two of them came here to take over from Shen Xuanzhao and Yun Qingsi.
As for Zhou Xiuqi and Zhou Xiuzhi, they were to assist the War Hall in establishing a foothold in the Barren Continent.
Several days later, "Brother Zhou."
"Big Brother Zhou."
"Farewell!"
At this time, in the Chenyuan Forbidden Land, stone houses had been built one after another.
A flag emblazoned with a snake pattern and exuding an ancient, mysterious aura fluttered in the wind.
Shen Xuanzhao and Yun Qingsi stood in the center of the Formation, waving to Zhou Xiuyuan outside the Formation.
They had been out for too long.
To avoid causing trouble for Zhou Xiuyuan and the Zhou Family, they had not even asked the Zhou Family to send news of them back.
Now that there was a way to return, they had no intention of staying in this realm.
Thus, after voluntarily making a Divine Soul oath, they stepped into the teleportation Formation.
"Big Brother Zhou, you can come to the Fuhai Sect in Jingzhou to find my Senior Brother and me in the future."
As the two figures disappeared, Yun Qingsi's final voice entered Zhou Xiuyuan's mind.
"Jingzhou, one of the Nine Provinces of the Nancang Domain, Fuhai Sect, a Sect with a Nascent Soul True Lord overseeing it..."
Zhou Xiuyuan's heart stirred.
The two had not spoken of their origins, nor had Zhou Xiuyuan asked.
After all, his friendship with them was not based on their identities.
Zhou Xiuyuan was silent for a moment.
Even with a Sword Heart, a sense of loss was unavoidable.
After a long while, Zhou Xiuyuan found Zhou Mingfang and the other two, gave them instructions, and then secretly returned to Qingyang Peak.
He wanted to stay in this realm to form an internal and external alliance with the War Hall members in the Barren Continent.
Over a month later, an ancient tribe emerged from the Chenyuan Forbidden Land.
Its name:
"Xuan She Tribe!"
