Chapter 65: Invitation
Seeing Xu Zhengyang solemnly accept that jade slip containing Pei Zhen’s life’s work, the "Divine chanism Array Artifact Codex".
Xing Yong instantly felt a weight lift from his heart.
Even the circulation of his internal magic power beca smoother, as if a thousand-jun burden had been lifted.
Imdiately after—
Xing Yong said to Xu Zhengyang, "Little Junior Brother, go ahead and study this book first. If you need any materials to practice with later, just let know."
"Hehe, then I’ll thank you in advance, Senior Brother!"
Xu Zhengyang chuckled as he stored the jade slip into the Jade Gourd, then eagerly bid farewell to Xing Yong, saying, "Then I’ll head back first!"
"Mm."
Xing Yong nodded and smiled, "Fly slower, stay safe! That scream from Yang Hong just now—I heard it from a long way off!"
"Hahaha, got it!"
Xu Zhengyang responded and imdiately activated his Martial Qi to release the Azure Sky Crane Feather on his back, flying straight back to Twilight Shadow Pavilion.
…
After returning to Twilight Shadow Pavilion.
Xu Zhengyang imdiately entered the ditation Room in the rear courtyard and couldn’t wait to take out the jade slip containing the "Divine chanism Array Artifact Codex" and press it to his forehead.
…
A mont later—
After transferring all the information recorded in the Divine chanism Array Artifact Codex into his brain, Xu Zhengyang began analyzing the data, tagging and categorizing it.
"Divine chanism Peak specializes in artifact refinent. Precisely because of this—The formations recorded in the Divine chanism Array Artifact Codex are mostly functional arrays like Concealnt, Sharpness, Fire Resistance, and Structural Reinforcent, which can be inscribed onto magic artifacts. In addition—A large portion of the jade slip is dedicated to the refining procedures of common artifacts, fla control techniques, and exclusive thods for inscribing functional formations."
At this point—
Xu Zhengyang said with a trace of regret, "As for the rest—The Divine chanism Array Artifact Codex only records two Tier 2 composite formations—Mist Shadow Thousand Kill Formation and Mystic Gang Spirit-Guarding Formation, and one Tier 3 composite formation—the diagram of the Nine Palaces Demon-Sealing Formation. Other than that— Only so conventional techniques for breaking formations are noted."
A short while later—
After sorting all the information from the Divine chanism Array Artifact Codex into his database—
Xu Zhengyang continued, "When I was previously collecting the paraters of various spiritual materials, I had so unique ideas. Now with the information from the Divine chanism Array Artifact Codex, so of those ideas might be put into practice..."
As he spoke—
Xu Zhengyang closed his eyes and began designing so little gadgets in his mind!
…

Over the next half month—
Xu Zhengyang directly had Xing Yong arrange lodging for him in the Divine chanism Palace, then asked him for a large amount of spiritual materials.
He used his own ideas to create so fine treasures!
One day—
Just as Xu Zhengyang was preparing to refine so materials in the Fire Chamber, Xing Yong suddenly called him to the third floor of the Divine chanism Palace.
Upon arriving—
Seeing Xing Yong’s solemn expression, Xu Zhengyang imdiately asked, "What’s wrong, Senior Brother?"
Xing Yong didn’t hide anything and handed a jade slip to Xu Zhengyang, saying, "Take a look for yourself."
"Mm."
Xu Zhengyang nodded and pressed the jade slip to his forehead.
…
This jade slip was essentially an invitation.
It said that the Sect Master of dicine King Valley, Master Tai Su, was delighted to have accepted a beloved disciple and was preparing to hold an initiation ceremony, widely inviting fellow cultivators of Qingzhou to attend.
Jade slip invitations like this were quite common.
After all, when Xu Zhengyang had acknowledged Pei Zhen as his master, Pei Zhen had also sent similar invitations to several friendly sects near True Essence Sect.
However—
The end of the jade slip took a sharp turn with the line:
"My unworthy disciple, ignorant of the heavens and earth, wishes to spar with the outstanding peers of Qingzhou..."
Words like a battle challenge instantly changed the tone of the invitation.
After reading the jade slip, Xu Zhengyang couldn’t help but ask Xing Yong, "Was dicine King Valley always this ostentatious?"
Xing Yong shook his head and replied, "dicine King Valley has always been low-key. This shift in behavior is truly baffling. But since they’ve issued a challenge, if True Essence Sect avoids the fight, won’t we beco the laughingstock of fellow cultivators in Qingzhou? For that reason— The Sect Master personally appointed you to accompany Elder Chen of Mysterious chanism Peak to dicine King Valley to assess the situation."
Xu Zhengyang had just finished upgrading all his equipnt.
So when he heard Xing Yong’s words, he imdiately smiled and said, "I was just itching to see what skills the top disciple of dicine King Valley has!"
"Mm."
Xing Yong nodded and reminded him, "Since Master Tai Su is so confident, his disciple must have exceptional abilities. The path of cultivation is about endurance. If you find yourself outmatched in the duel, do not try to act tough—just admit defeat."
Hearing Xing Yong’s words ward Xu Zhengyang’s heart.
Having lived two lifetis, even if Xing Yong hadn’t said it, he wouldn’t risk his life over pride. He solemnly responded, "Thank you for the reminder, Senior Brother. I will!"
"Mm."
Xing Yong nodded again and handed Xu Zhengyang a Storage Pouch, saying, "The road to dicine King Valley is long.
Even with Elder Chen’s Golden Rosy Cloud-Crossing Boat, it takes seven days and nights of non-stop travel to arrive.
This pouch contains so spirit stones and pills—take it with you."
Xu Zhengyang looked through the Storage Pouch.
Besides ten Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, there were also Detoxification Pills, Spirit Recovery Pills, and other pills useful in combat.
Everything inside was practical.
Seeing this, Xu Zhengyang accepted it without ceremony, stowing it away and cupping his hands toward Xing Yong, "Many thanks, Senior Brother!"
"We’re family—no need to be polite."
Xing Yong smiled and finally said, "Our master and Elder Chen have long-standing tensions. While I currently manage Divine chanism Peak— In terms of seniority, Elder Chen is our Martial Uncle, and I still must pay my respects. That’s usually fine— But if I salute Elder Chen in my current position, Master would be furious. For that reason—I won’t see you off this ti. Head to Mysterious chanism Peak on your own!"
"No problem, I know the way!"
As he spoke, Xu Zhengyang swept his Divine Sense over the Jade Gourd, confirming that the treasures he made recently were all in order.
He then activated his Martial Qi and released his Azure Sky Crane Feather, saying to Xing Yong, "Senior Brother, I’m off now!"
"Mm."
Xing Yong nodded, escorting Xu Zhengyang to the third-floor terrace of the Divine chanism Palace, and gave a final reminder, "Be careful out there!"
"Don’t worry!"
Xu Zhengyang replied as he activated his Azure Sky Crane Feather and soared into the sky, vanishing from sight.
…

A mont later, Mysterious chanism Peak.
At this ti, Chen Qiang had already summoned the Golden Rosy Cloud-Crossing Boat.
Now—
On the deck of the boat, besides Chen Qiang, stood the two elders of Mysterious chanism Peak: Ji Yunzhao and Ji Yunyao.
