65: Chapter 65

Outside the Formation, the Disciples within the Sect watched this scene in stunned silence.

"Why has the Sect Master gone mad?"

"Look, it's not just the Sect Master. Look at Elder Wang's expression; he looks as frustrated as if he just ate shit."

"It's the Formation! It must be the Formation that has disturbed the minds of the Sect Master and the others!" someone cleverer within the Sect shouted in realization, recalling their previous experience in the Sect square.

The Sect Master and the Grand Elder, the two strongest Golden Cores in the Sect, now seemed to have lost their minds, striking down those around them with every sword thrust and punch.

The Second Elder's eyelid twitched as he watched.

I told them this Formation wasn't that simple, yet they still dared to barge in.

"Sect Master, how foolish!"

At this moment, it wasn't just the Azure Nether Sword Sect; even the Crimson Firmament Sect was in a similar state.

This Formation could even confuse the Divine Soul of a Nascent Soul Stage Expert and influence their emotions if they weren't careful, let alone a group of Golden Core Realm ants.

"Look! Why do those two seem completely unaffected?" someone shouted, pointing toward a certain spot.

Instantly, everyone's gaze was drawn over. They saw a transcendent man in white robes leading a Yellow-Skirts Girl, walking through as if they were on level ground.

The Second Elder turned to look, his heart filled with dread. Could it be that this person had already found a way to break the Formation?

"No, impossible! There's absolutely no way!"

He knew better than anyone how profound this Formation was. Even he, a Great Master of Formations, hadn't yet figured out what kind of Formation it was; how could this person already have a way to break it?

"That person... that person seems to be the Sect Master of the Dao Seeking Sect."

In another part of the hall!

Fairy Qiyue narrowed her eyes and looked into the distance. After seeing Chen Xuan and his companion, it was as if a pebble had been tossed into the lake of her heart, causing ripples of emotion.

Although she had already suspected that the Sect Master would have a way to break the Formation,

she hadn't expected it to be so easy. Even though they were in the middle of this profound and eerie Formation, it was as if they were taking a leisurely stroll.

"As expected of the Sect Master," Qi Yue murmured to herself. She glanced at the Disciple beside her, Xiao Lingxian, and the decision in her heart became even firmer.

Li Pingan and the others also followed Elder Qi Yue's gaze: "So the Eldest Senior Sister is by Revered Master's side."

"The Sect Master is actually proficient in the Dao of Formations as well." Xiao Lingxian's beautiful eyes widened, and a look of surprise flashed across her cold face.

Ye Hao smiled and said, "Since Revered Master has already entered the depths of this hall, we just need to wait here for him to come out. With Revered Master's abilities, any Opportunity within the hall will surely be within his reach."

Fairy Qiyue nodded slightly in agreement. Given the Sect Master's vast Divine Ability, if even he encountered a problem he couldn't solve, then she would certainly be powerless as well.

Ye Hao simply sat down cross-legged on the spot to Cultivate.

That bitch Ye Jing has already become the Saintess of a Holy Land; she must not slack off in her Cultivation.

Outside the square, he had asked Elder Qi Yue to kill Ye Zhong and the others. If his own abilities were sufficient, Ye Hao would have been willing to take his revenge personally, even if it meant trading his life for theirs.

Seeing this, Li Pingan suddenly took out dozens of fist-sized green fruits from his storage ring.

"These are Spirit Essence Dates that my Junior Sister and I happened to pick. They are full of Spiritual Qi and eating them helps with Cultivation. Junior Brother, try some." Li Pingan gave Ye Hao about twenty of them, planning to give the rest to his Senior Sister and as a tribute to his Revered Master.

In any case, for someone with his Heaven-Loathing Divine Body, spirit fruits were just for the taste; he couldn't absorb any Spiritual Qi from them.

Ye Hao didn't hesitate, taking them and biting into one: "Thank you, Senior Brother!"

Watching this scene, a slight smile appeared on Qi Yue's lips.

The image of a woman who looked somewhat like her surfaced in her mind again, making her mood complex... "Revered Master, what exactly is going on? Why are all those people fighting?" Mu Wanqing looked at the techniques exploding in the distance, very confused.

Chen Xuan speculated, "Those people are under the influence of the Formation and have lost their minds."

"Ah?!" Mu Wanqing cried out in surprise.

"When did Revered Master break the Formation?"

Since they could pass through safely without being affected, in Mu Wanqing's eyes, her Revered Master must have already broken the Formation here.

It's just... so fast!

She hadn't noticed it at all; her Revered Master was truly profound and unfathomable.

Chen Xuan thought to himself that since he had the High-Grade Formation Immunity Card, he couldn't even see a ripple of Spiritual Qi. He wished there was at least a speed bump; there was no game experience at all!

"Let's go. With two layers of Formations guarding it, let's see what kind of Opportunity is hidden in the depths of this hall."

After passing through the Formation, a towering stone gate appeared before them. The gate was ten zhang high and about five zhang wide, carved from a single piece of blue-black Black Iron Rock, its surface covered in ancient runes.

Three powerful ancient characters were carved into the lintel, but they had long since become blurred. Chen Xuan could only vaguely make out the middle character, 'Xuan'.

"Revered Master, what should we do?" Mu Wanqing stared at the towering stone gate, unconsciously comparing it to her own Dao Seeking Sect, and then smiled slightly.

Chen Xuan stopped and studied the stone gate with a solemn gaze. Just as he was about to gather Spiritual Qi to push it open, the gate seemed to sense their presence and let out a heavy "Crick— Crack—" sound.

The stone gate opened!

As soon as Chen Xuan and his Disciple stepped inside, an air of long-sealed age rushed over them. Unlike the heat outside, it was somewhat cold and damp here.

Inside the stone gate was a very small room with walls made of blue-black stone. Rather than a room, it was more like a transition chamber.

At the end of the room, five passage entrances appeared side by side.

Mu Wanqing blinked her almond-shaped eyes and observed closely. These five passages were similar in size, all deep and bottomless, emitting a heart-pounding aura.

"Wanqing, if it were you, which one would you choose?"

"Ah?!" Mu Wanqing was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at her Revered Master. Is this a test?

She rested her chin on one hand and began to pace back and forth in the small room, observing carefully.

But there was no discernible difference between the five passages. Having no other choice, Mu Wanqing pointed to the second one from the left: "Revered Master, I feel like there should be an Opportunity or Magic Treasure in this one."

"If it were you, which one would you choose?"

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "Only children make choices; I want them all."

Mu Wanqing: "???"

As expected of Revered Master.

After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he walked toward the first passage on the left, with Mu Wanqing following close behind.

Since the Spirit Void Secret Realm only opened once every twenty years, Chen Xuan naturally didn't want to miss anything. Moreover, now that he had the High-Grade Formation Immunity Card, where could he not go?

The two of them passed through the deep corridor without any obstacles. After walking for about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, an open space appeared before them.

This turned out to be a stone chamber for storing Cultivation Techniques, several times larger than the previous small room.

Dozens of ancient bookshelves stood against the four walls of the stone chamber. The shelves were neatly packed with countless Jade Slips and Cultivation Techniques, all shimmering with spiritual light.

Looking around, the dazzling array of Cultivation Techniques was simply overwhelming.

Chen Xuan scanned the room and had only one feeling. He felt a bit... sleepy.

Even though a Nascent Soul cultivation base no longer required sleep or rest, seeing a place with so many books gave him a sort of mysterious muscle memory.
