Chapter 281 Farewell
Chapter 281 Farewell
Qingyunmen.
The room was silent.
Tian Ruochun stood up, and the leaders of the eight major sects sat together. Xie Wanxun leaned against the door, and everyone waited quietly for details.
"In order to counter the persecution of the cultivation world by the Heavenly Dao, we must go to the God Realm to negotiate with the Heavenly Dao. To go to the God Realm, we must ascend to become immortals. Given the increasingly depleted spiritual power of the cultivation world, this is quite difficult."
Tian Ruochun took a deep breath, looked at everyone, and said, "Everyone, to be honest, in the past ten years, I have not only set up spirit gathering arrays in Qingyun Sect, but also in the other seven major sects and the Demon Realm. The large number of spirit gathering arrays have been superimposed to form the 'Tian Shu Spirit Gathering Array'."
"This formation requires one person as the core and a hundred people to assist in activating it. I discussed this with Sect Leader Zhong before, and disciples of Bibo Court can participate in activating the formation."
Tian Ruochun's gaze fell on Xie Wanning, with a hint of earnestness in it.
"This formation is vast in scale, covering almost the entire cultivation world. How can you guarantee that it will operate smoothly?" Qiao Qingzi asked worriedly.
"Moreover, I have never heard of such a grand formation before. Could it be that Junior Sister Tian created this formation herself?" Xiao Shuo asked, puzzled.
Tian Ruochun replied calmly, "No problem. I tested the formation myself. The formation can absorb spiritual energy but it does not harm people. As for this formation, I developed it on my own, so it is not recorded in any books."
Everyone was deep in thought, considering the advantages and disadvantages of this formation.
Now, the situation regarding the cultivation world is becoming increasingly serious. If no resistance is taken, the cultivation world may be destroyed by the Heavenly Dao one day.
Therefore, Tian Ruochun's method was the only way out.
After discussion, everyone agreed to activate the formation. Since the chosen one absorbs spiritual energy faster and is familiar with the formations of various sects, he is naturally the best candidate to receive spiritual energy.
“Then, we will activate the formation one day from now,” Xie Wanning announced, receiving the agreement of the others.
Xie Wanxun remained silent throughout the entire ordeal.
night.
Xie Wanxun sat on the roof, looking at the moon in the sky.
As night fell as dark as ink, the moon quietly climbed to the treetops, like a bright lamp hanging high, casting its silvery light upon the earth without reservation, gilding all things with a dreamlike veil.
"Sister, I got it." Xie Wanning flew to the rooftop on the Luoze Sword and sat down next to Xie Wanxun. She held a blueprint in her hand, which was the layout diagram of the Tian Shu Gathering Spirit Array.
"This is the diagram Xiaotian gave me. I just asked her, and she said there's no danger in operating this formation," Xie Wanning said with a smile.
Xie Wanxun took the blueprints and carefully studied the formations on them, but found no problems.
She nodded and said, "Yes, this formation is very good."
After a moment's pause, Xie Wanxun frowned slightly, her tone somewhat puzzled: "But isn't this formation too perfect, without any flaws?"
"Isn't this bad?"
"No, that way I can rest assured." Xie Wanxun chuckled, then suddenly snatched Xie Wanning's storage bag and began searching inside.
"Sister, what are you looking for?"
After searching for a while, Xie Wanxun finally found a mahogany box and broke the seal on it.
Inside the box lay a yellowed piece of paper and a plum blossom hairpin.
Xie Wanxun picked up the hairpin and put it on Xie Wanxun.
"The birthday gift I gave you earlier was meant to be put to use, not just left to gather dust in a box."
"No way! I put it in the box because I was afraid of accidentally breaking it." Xie Wanning touched the hairpin in her hair, her tone somewhat anxious.
"I know."
Xie Wanxun glanced at Xie Wanning with reluctance and said softly, "You must come back! I'll wait for you."
"Ah."
Xie Wanxun is a demonic cultivator and cannot ascend to immortality, therefore, he cannot go to the God Realm with Xie Wanning.
Day two.
Qingyunmen.
There was one hour left before the Heavenly Pivot Spirit Gathering Array was activated, and the nine chosen ones gathered together.
However, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.
The future is uncertain.
Lin Xuanjin looked at Xie Wanning and Meng Qingyue, his eldest and second disciples, with reluctance.
"You must be careful. When facing the Heavenly Dao, do not resort to violence. It would be best to make peace if possible. You must return safely. Your master will always be waiting for you to come back." Lin Xuanjin's eyes were full of worry. The words he had thought about for a long time came out as "Return safely."
"Don't worry, Master, my second junior brother and I will come back," Xie Wanning solemnly assured her.
"Master, don't worry. If there's any danger, I'll retreat quickly," Meng Qingyue said with a smile, patting his chest.
"You are all disciples I am proud of, and your master believes in you," Lin Xuanjin said with satisfaction.
"Brother, don't go!" Lin Jingquan cried out in despair, looking extremely distressed.
Ji Yun sighed and patted Lin Jingquan's shoulder, saying, "I'll be back soon. You can take care of Tianyan Sect for now."
Lin Jingquan wiped away his tears and nodded vigorously, promising, "Brother, I will take good care of the sect. However, if you break the contract, I will definitely make a mess of the sect."
“That’s not necessary.” Ji Yun’s expression changed, and he felt a headache coming on. Looking at Lin Jingquan’s worried eyes, he made a promise: “I will come back as soon as I have taken care of things. I never lie, you know that.”
Lin Jingquan nodded, his heart finally settling down. However, he heard a familiar voice in his ear.
"She's such a big girl, yet she still cries while hugging her brother. What a crybaby," Qiao Qingzi chuckled, covering her mouth.
Lin Jingquan was so angry that his face turned red. He stomped his foot and turned away from Qiao Qingzi.
"Senior Sister Qiao, please stop teasing Junior Brother Lin. He's just being impatient and making a fuss." Xia Mengqi quickly stepped in to smooth things over.
"Who told him to always cause trouble at Hundred Herbs Valley? He's always running away, but today I finally got a chance to talk to him," Qiao Qingzi said with dissatisfaction.
Xia Mengqi turned her head and met Ji Yun's gaze; both of them were somewhat embarrassed. After all, it was their idea to send Lin Jingquan to help at Hundred Herbs Valley, but they hadn't expected that Lin Jingquan would displease Senior Sister Qiao.
"Senior Sister, don't be angry. Here's a Qingxin Grass for you." Lin Xi handed over a bright green spiritual herb.
Qiao Qingzi patted Lin Xi's head and smiled, "Second Junior Sister is the most considerate."
Xia Mengqi watched this harmonious scene with a smile on her lips, but a bitter feeling welled up in her heart.
"Sect Leader Xia, someone is looking for you," a junior disciple announced.
Xia Mengqi was startled, but then she saw Xie Wanxun waiting for her under the tree.
"Demon Lord, what do you want with me?" Xia Mengqi asked, her eyes filled with confusion, her hands gripping the hem of her clothes tightly.
Xie Wanxun raised an eyebrow and smiled, "It wasn't me looking for you, it was her."
As he spoke, a figure peeked out from behind the tree.
"Aqi," Xia Mengchu called out gently, mustering her courage.
"What...what are you doing here?" Xia Mengqi turned her head away awkwardly.
Xia Mengchu panicked for a moment, not knowing where to begin. She hesitated and said, "I..."
However, my mind was in complete chaos, and I didn't know what to say.
Xia Mengqi couldn't hear Xia Mengchu's words clearly, and feeling somewhat irritated, she unconsciously took a step forward.
However, Xia Mengchu took a step back, her face flushed with anxiety.
"fear me?"
