Chapter 529 Deity Transformation Honored One
Moon Gazing Island, Azure Wood Pavilion.
"Brother Qin, please take a look." Qi Xiaoyu took out a Jade Scroll and handed it to Qin Ming.
Qin Ming took the Jade Scroll and browsed through it, and after a short while, a happy smile appeared on his face.
Within the Jade Scroll, a complete Ancient Formation was drawn. Qi Xiaoyu had restored the missing parts of that Ancient Formation to its original state.
From this, it could be seen that Qi Xiaoyu's attainment in the Dao of Formations was truly unmatched. He could even repair such an Ancient Formation that had been lost for a long time.
Moreover, based on the complexity of the Formation Patterns and Restrictions, Qin Ming judged that this Grand Formation should be a Fifth Grade Level Formation.
"Brother Qi is indeed amazing, to have repaired this Ancient Formation so quickly. Qin Ming will use tea in place of wine to offer you a toast." Qin Ming said with a smile.
Qi Xiaoyu smiled, drank the Spirit Tea in his hand in one gulp, and sighed with lingering enjoyment, "Good tea!"
"If Brother Qi likes it, I will have some brought back for you later." Qin Ming put down his teacup and said with a light smile.
However, Qi Xiaoyu pondered for a moment, not mentioning the Spirit Tea, but instead asked with a profound meaning, "Brother Qin, all indications show that the origin of this Formation is extremely extraordinary, not an ordinary Fifth-Rank Formation. May I ask Brother Qi where you discovered it?"
Being asked this question, Qin Ming pondered slightly for a moment, and then asked, "Why does Brother Qi ask this question? Could it be that you have made other discoveries?"
"That's right, originally I thought this Ancient Formation was just a Super-Distance Teleportation Formation, leading to somewhere in the Human Realm. But when I finished restoring all the Formation Patterns, I discovered that this is actually a Compound Grand Formation." Qi Xiaoyu said with a serious expression.
"This Formation, in addition to its teleportation function, also has the function of extracting Heaven and Earth Origin Qi for suppression. There should be four other Ancient Formations exactly like this one, set up in different directions. What Brother Qin discovered is only one of them."
After listening to Qi Xiaoyu's words, Qin Ming was also slightly surprised. So he no longer concealed anything and said:
"Brother Qi, to be honest, I unintentionally discovered this Formation in the West Nether Cultivation World, under a Mineral Vein."
"If I take you there, is there a way to find the remaining four Formations?"
Qi Xiaoyu pondered for a moment, then nodded:
"I am quite interested in such high-level Ancient Formations. If Brother Qin doesn't mind, I can study them."
"However, this Formation is of great importance. What is suppressed by this Formation is probably no ordinary thing…"
"I once found a Last Words Jade Slip of an Ancient Cultivator next to the Ancient Formation, which briefly mentioned the origin of this Formation. It should be related to Primal Peak Mountain…" Qin Ming said, and took out an ancient Jade Scroll for the other party to look at.
After Qi Xiaoyu invaded his Divine Sense and browsed through it, he couldn't help but sigh and say, "Primal Peak Mountain, Immortal Spirit Land for Ancient Cultivator Cultivation, Ancient Demon Realm invasion… Fallen Demon Land…"
After digesting a series of information, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck his mind, and he suddenly exclaimed:
"Wait! If we combine it with the relevant information of Primal Peak Mountain, this Formation is very likely to be the legendary Yuan Harmony Five Elements Subduing Demon Grand Formation!"
"If I hadn't seen it in my family's ancient books and had some impression of it, I wouldn't have been able to judge it."
"Yuan Harmony Five Elements Subduing Demon Grand Formation?" Qin Ming pondered Qi Xiaoyu's words, "Time is of the essence, Brother Qi, why not go explore with me?"
"Since it concerns the safety of the Human Realm, it would be best if I, Qi, could contribute." After hearing about the Ancient Demon, Qi Xiaoyu did not show any sign of shirking or retreating, and agreed almost without hesitation.
"But…" He hesitated again.
Qin Ming said upon seeing this, "Brother Qi, please speak frankly."
"It's nothing much. According to the records in my Qi family's ancient book, this Yuan Harmony Five Elements Subduing Demon Grand Formation is a high-level Formation inherited from the Ancient Spirit Realm. Even if it is repaired, ordinary Spirit Stones cannot activate the Formation at all…"
"To activate this super Grand Formation, one needs the legendary 'Secluded Profound Crystal'. Only this Void Attribute Divine Stone can make such an ancient Grand Formation operate again." Qi Xiaoyu explained.
"However, this stone is said to be extremely scarce even in the Spirit Realm. I don't know if there is any in the Human Realm."
Hearing this, Qin Ming thought to himself, isn't this a coincidence?
Even the Devouring Heaven Rat, who was pouring tea and water beside him, showed a strange expression. He did not expect that the things it produced from devouring Nascent Souls would have such a great effect.
Qin Ming immediately took out a Secluded Profound Crystal and said to Qi Xiaoyu, "Is Brother Qi talking about this thing?"
Qi Xiaoyu was completely stunned. He took the black Secluded Profound Crystal in Qin Ming's hand and said in surprise, "It is indeed this thing, and such a large piece. Where did Brother Qin get this from? It truly broadens my horizons."
"Haha! These stones were found by Qin Ming when I discovered that Ancient Formation." Qin Ming said with a smile.
"No wonder! That's great!"
Qi Xiaoyu couldn't help but rejoice, and handed the Secluded Profound Crystal back to Qin Ming and said, "In that case, it may really be possible to restart this Grand Formation."
The two reached a consensus and immediately set off.
More than ten days later.
Qin Ming took Qi Xiaoyu to the Sha Family Fort Mine in the West Nether Cultivation World.
After the two arrived near the Mine Vein, they found that there were still quite a few Demonic Cultivators staying here.
But they did not alert them, but quietly sneaked into the Underground of the Mineral Vein.
For Qin Ming, two Nascent Soul True Lords, it was also an easy task.
Before long.
Qin Ming followed his memory and came to the place where he had previously sealed and hidden the Formation space.
After the two entered it, Qin Ming first cautiously cast an Isolation Barrier.
When Qi Xiaoyu entered this place and truly witnessed the entire Ancient Formation, he couldn't help but sigh repeatedly.
"As expected of an Ancient Grand Formation that can mobilize Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, it is truly worthy of its reputation…"
Just then.
Old Demon Qing Yang in the Blood Floating Pagoda Spirit Treasure also secretly transmitted his voice, "This kid is truly exceptionally talented in the Dao of Formations. If he is given the conditions, in time, he might even lead the Dao of Formations in the Human Realm to an unprecedented Peak Stage."
"This Old Devil has never seen such a monstrous genius of the Path of Arrays even in the Spirit Realm…"
"Yes, indeed." Qin Ming nodded secretly as he looked at Qi Xiaoyu, who was completely immersed in repairing the Ancient Formation. Then he asked, "Old Ghost, are you really not aware of anything about Primal Peak Mountain?"
"And about things in the Spirit Realm, you Old Ghost have never told me about this. Don't you plan to tell Qin Ming about it?"
"Now, after the Formation is repaired, I'm afraid there will be a battle with the Demonic Path. This Yuan Harmony Five Elements Subduing Demon Grand Formation, inherited from Ancient Times, has a great relationship with Primal Peak Mountain. We will have to explore it thoroughly."
Old Demon Qing Yang realized that he had let slip of the tongue, and it was too late to regret it. He then stammered and said, "Ahem! This Old Man does know a little, but I have never been inside, so I don't know too much."
"I only know that Venerable Qingdi of this sect once went in once, and seemed to re-suppress and seal an Ancient Demon inside, and then had to ascend to the Spirit Realm…"
After he finished speaking, he fell into silence again, but did not mention a word about the Spirit Realm.
In the following time.
Qi Xiaoyu began to repair this Ancient Formation according to the Jade Scroll that had already been drawn.
He said with some joy:
"Brother Qin, as expected, this Formation is a Compound Grand Formation. The other four Formations must also exist. As long as you give me some time, I will be able to calculate the accurate locations soon."
After several days of repair.
Suddenly, all the Spirit Rune Restrictions in the Immortal's Cave lit up.
Mysteriously, an ancient and time-worn aura rushed towards them.
Qin Ming couldn't help but be amazed when he saw this. He didn't expect Qi Xiaoyu's methods to be so sharp.
"Brother Qin, Qi has not failed in his mission. One of the Sub-Formations of the Yuan Harmony Five Elements Subduing Demon Grand Formation has been repaired."
Qi Xiaoyu had repaired it day and night for several days without sleep. When he saw the Formation Patterns light up, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Qin Ming walked over to take a look, and sure enough, the entire Grand Formation had been restored to its original state. Those extremely complex Formation Patterns were all emitting a faint wave.
"Brother Qi, you have worked hard. Next, after filling in the Secluded Profound Crystal, will it be possible to restart this Formation?"
"In theory, it should be. But I estimate that the other end will lead directly to somewhere Within Yuan Extremity Mountain."
"Otherwise, why don't we find the remaining four Formations first to see if they are damaged, and repair them together before making a decision?" Qi Xiaoyu suggested, "Otherwise, rashly opening the teleportation will be troublesome if something goes wrong."
"Then we will do as Brother Qi says."
Next.
Qi Xiaoyu followed the calculated results and led Qin Ming to find the remaining four Formations in the other major Cultivation Worlds.
To Qin Ming's surprise, the Sub-Formation set up in the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World was actually hidden under the Green Origin Sect Medicine Garden Ruins in the Cloud Wasteland Great Marsh where Qin Ming had initially planted the land…
What surprised the two even more was that three of them were still intact.
Qi Xiaoyu only needed to repair the last Formation.
…
…
At the Same Time.
Northern Cold Cultivation World, Within Primal Peak Mountain.
Near a picturesque and Immortal Qi-filled Mountain Range, this place was free from Demonic Energy pollution. Suddenly, a Void Rift several feet wide cracked open in the Space. Faintly visible within the endless Void Space, Astral Winds were swirling, terrifyingly abnormal.
Just as the Void Rift was about to close, a white escape light drilled out from inside.
When the Light of Escape dissipated, a figure in extreme distress was revealed. This person had dark skin and was dressed as an old farmer, with ragged clothes all over his body. Obviously, he had suffered some minor injuries when he forcibly crossed the Void Rift just now.
This person was surprisingly the Fishing Cloud Old Man who had traded with Qin Ming twice before!
But now when he appeared in Primal Peak Mountain again, his original Mid-Core Formation Stage Cultivation Level had become Early Peak Deity Transformation Stage…
"Alas! This Old Man is really unlucky!"
"I almost perished in this ghostly place. I didn't get the Ascension Platform and Spirit-Connecting Treasure, but the Fourth Rank Blood Spirit Spider that I painstakingly cultivated is also dead…"
"If I hadn't been here once a thousand years ago and recognized this Secret Safe Route for escaping the Void Rift, which can avoid the Laws of this place, this Old Man would have probably died here."
"Who would have thought that the Soul Fragment of the Saint Ancestor of Six Paths of the Ancient Demon Realm, which was sealed, would awaken…"
"Old Ghost Ice Yi, Old Monster Fu Yao, this Old Man can't care about you Old Guys in the face of disaster. Just wish yourselves good luck."
Fishing Cloud Old Man sighed and lamented for a while in extreme depression.
Immediately, he took out two ancient Jade Bottles from his Storage Bag, weighed them in his hand, and said with heartache, "I didn't get anything else, but unexpectedly, I got the Spirit Light Purification Water and Pure Flame Glass that kid Qin needed…"
"This Old Man disregarded the risk of Death and Dao dissipation to enter the depths of Primal Peak Mountain. How does it feel like I'm working for that kid Qin for nothing…"
"I knew I shouldn't have agreed to him. This time, I really suffered a big loss, a huge loss!"
Immediately after.
Fishing Cloud Old Man calmed down his depressed mood, put away the Jade Bottles, observed the Origin Peak Mountain Range for a while, identified a direction, and turned into a white escape light and disappeared in place.
He was considered the only person among all those who entered Primal Peak Mountain who knew the Secret Safe Route.
Just as he was flying in the sky, passing by a Gorge Area, he saw a ground fissure exposed in a place covered by extremely rich Demonic Energy. Within the narrow Space, three Human Race Nascent Soul Cultivators were trapped inside…
Fishing Cloud Old Man shook his head, "Consider you three little guys lucky to actually run into This Old Man in such a dangerous place."
He just stretched out his hand and probed forward slightly. A golden immense giant palm the size of a hundred feet appeared out of thin air, its power was terrifyingly powerful. With a casual wave, it swept away the Demonic Energy and Restrictions covering the Gorge in an instant…
Immediately, Fishing Cloud Old Man finished doing all this, and without stopping much, continued to escape towards the outside…
In the ground fissure at the Bottom of the Gorge.
Venerable Crow, Tian Jizi, and True Monarch Wanbao were trapped here, at a loss, and almost unable to hold on.
But they saw a supremely powerful figure whizzing past in the sky. With a casual wave of his hand, he broke the strange Restrictions and Demonic Energy that trapped them.
It was simply an unreal feeling like a dream for the three of them. They did not expect that they would get their lives back again.
"Look quickly! This damn Restriction is finally broken, we are saved!" Venerable Crow, in a Green Robe, showed the excitement of surviving a disaster, and almost burst into tears on the spot.
"I wonder which Senior made a Move to save us."
Tian Jizi was calculating with his fingers, and said calmly without panic, "This Old Man said long ago, let you two not panic. I have already calculated it. Although we are destined to have this tribulation, we will turn danger into safety. Next, we will survive a great disaster and there will be good fortune to follow…"
"Tch! Who was it that kept complaining to This Seat in the beginning? And who was it that was almost scared half to death by the Heavenly Hatred Demon Lord outside? This Seat doesn't ask for your divination to be accurate, just ask you Old Ghost to stop being a backseat driver." Venerable Crow sneered at him.
True Monarch Wanbao, dressed as a merchant, persuaded, "Alright, you two, stop bickering. Next, the important thing is whether to continue searching for treasures or find a way to leave."
Hearing True Monarch Wanbao's words, the other two also calmed down.
Venerable Crow sensed it slightly.
"Hehe! I can use Magic Power normally again."
Afterwards, he took out the Yuan Extremity Token that Qin Ming had given him, injected Magic Power and activated it, but there was no response.
Venerable Crow showed an extremely ugly expression, "Judging from the situation, we have not escaped danger yet. Obviously, a major Unexpected Event has occurred Within Yuan Extremity Mountain. Otherwise, the Token given by Daoist Friend Qin would definitely be able to teleport us out safely…"
"Where is that Senior just now? Did you two see clearly which direction he went?" Tian Jizi's calm expression disappeared, and he said anxiously, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and follow him!"
The three of them exchanged glances tacitly, and immediately turned into three Lights of Escape, drilled out of the ground fissure, and chased Towards the direction where Fishing Cloud Old Man disappeared…
But how could the Flight Speed of a Deity Transformation Honored One be something that the three of them, mere Early-Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, could catch up with.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them were lost again in this Space like headless flies.
…
On the other side.
After more than half a month of rush repairs, Qin Ming and Qi Xiaoyu in the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World finally repaired the five complete Yuan Harmony Five Elements Subduing Demon Grand Formations.
Qi Xiaoyu was also extremely excited. He did not expect that one day, he would be able to repair such an Ancient Grand Formation.
Fortunately, the Formation was relatively well preserved, and only a small part of the Spirit Markings were eroded, otherwise he would not have been able to do it.
"Brother Qin, the Formation is repaired. Next, how do you think we should decide?"
Qin Ming also knew what he meant, and needed to test the Formation.
But if the other end of this Formation's destination is in the lair where the Ancient Demon is sealed, then wouldn't that be a blunder?
For Safety's sake, Qin Ming could only wrong the Devouring Heaven Rat a bit.
He summoned the Devouring Heaven Rat, patted it on the shoulder, and instructed it with an extremely solemn expression:
"Devouring Heaven Rat, this matter concerns the life and death of the Human Realm. This wave depends on you."
