Chapter 279: The Undercover Fairy Gui in the Tianyin Sect
For half a month, Jiang Hao studied formations with Zhuang Yuzhen.
The Three Elent Formation was much more complex than he had anticipated.
Because it was so profound, Zhuang Yuzhen’s explanations were just skimming the surface.
Mainly because Jiang Hao couldn’t understand, which was a disappointnt to him.
Aware of his limitations, Jiang Hao still studied diligently for the sake of his future safety.
His foundation in formations had indeed beco much more solid.
“Now you’ve learned quite a bit, but you’re still lacking so finesse, which requires innate talent and can’t be forced. However, you can continue to practice the various changes to make up for the lack of experience,” Zhuang Yuzhen said.
Jiang Hao closed his eyes, and in an instant, the formations he had learned during this ti began to appear in his mind.
As the formations evolved, they beca increasingly complex in his mind.
Looking at these formations, Jiang Hao felt a stiffness.
He had morized them rigidly, unable to allow for any unknown variations.
His talent in this area was indeed average.
However, learning talismans was not the sa.
‘Does this an that I actually have a decent talent for making talismans?’
Jiang Hao gave a wry smile.
It seed that making money through formations was not going to be possible.
When he opened his eyes, he heard Zhuang Yuzhen’s voice.
“How does it feel?”
Jiang Hao shook his head slightly and then wanted to ask so questions.
It was evening now, and he still had plenty of ti.
At that mont, he heard noises from the side; soone was being brought down in the distance.
“Let out! You beasts, if you want to kill or skin , just do it, why torture like this? Kill , you Demon Sect beasts!”
Jiang Hao saw a weak, bearded man struggling frantically.
His face was pale, and his body was emaciated.
But Jiang Hao recognized him at first glance; wasn’t this the powerful practitioner who had boasted that not even a re tower could hold him?
Now, he seed to have only the strength of a late-stage Nascent Soul.
It hadn’t been that long.
Bang!
The man called Hai Luo was locked in cell number two, becoming Zhuang Yuzhen’s cellmate.
“It looks like you’ve got company,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.
“Why are you making a fuss? He isn’t worthy to stay with ,” Zhuang Yuzhen said disdainfully.
Jiang Hao chuckled.
He rembered how Zhuang Yuzhen had struggled even more exaggeratedly than the other man when he first arrived.
Bang!
Bang!
The Hai Luo man banged heavily on the ground, shouting madly.
“Let out, let out, you bunch of beasts! When my people co, you will all die. I will level the entire Tianyin Sect, you only dare to ambush , co at face to face if you have the guts!”
Zhuang Yuzhen looked at the man from Hai Luo and felt that he was voicing his own thoughts.
He also wanted to level the Tianyin Sect.
They’re a bunch of beasts.
“Appraisal.”
Jiang Hao felt that the man posed a certain danger and decided to assess him.
【Hai Luo: One of the Twelve Heavenly Kings of the Tianhe Sea, his cultivation absorbed by the Lawless Tower, leaving only the strength of a late-stage Nascent Soul. Ca to the south for the Heavenly Extre Calamity Bead but was discovered by Bai Zhi due to being too high-profile, which led to an ambush and his capture. His collaborators will soon arrive to continue the search for the Heavenly Extre Calamity Bead.】
One of the twelve kings of the Tianhe Sea?
Jiang Hao felt confused, having never heard of this.
However, it was certain that “Liu” had ntioned that people from overseas were eyeing the Heavenly Extre Calamity Bead, and they must be them.
What he didn’t expect was that the Tianyin Sect would take the initiative to capture people and bring them into the Lawless Tower.
In the south, the Tianyin Sect was quite capable. They could handle the Xuantian Sect or the Luoxia Sect with ease. But when it ca to the north or overseas, the Tianyin Sect seed sowhat inadequate.
Was it really okay to offend people like this?
However, Elder Bai Zhi must have known about the Heavenly Extre Calamity Bead; otherwise, she wouldn’t have acted so quickly.
“Where are you from?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked curiously.
“What are you? Do I have to tell you where I co from?” Hai Luo responded coldly.
Jiang Hao: “...”
Why are these people’s mouths so tough?
But he didn’t have anything to threaten the other party with, so it was better to ignore him.
Although the other party ca for the Heavenly Extre Calamity Bead, no one knew the bead was in the Tianyin Sect.
No one knew who had the bead either.
Zhuang Yuzhen looked at Hai Luo as if he were looking at an idiot:
“So you’re just a little bastard.”
“Say that again to , we’re all prisoners here, what are you so arrogant about?” Hai Luo said defiantly.
In this tower, everyone was equal because they had all lost their cultivation.
Beasts. Worse than animals, this sect.
So cruel. Murderous and heartless.
Watching him, Jiang Hao sighed inwardly and left the Lawless Tower.
Tonight was the ti for the gathering, and he needed to prepare.
He could continue learning formations tomorrow.
As he left, he saw a woman in a black robe entering.
He quickly bowed his head in respect.
This person ca often, and it seed that she interrogated all the important prisoners.
He didn’t know if she was a Senior Sister or a Senior Brother.
She nodded slightly in return, acknowledging his gesture, and then went straight to the cells.
Then ca Hai Luo’s cry of surprise.
“Is it you again? I told you...”
Snap!
The sound of a whip echoed.
Jiang Hao quickly walked away.
He dared not look, nor did he dare to know too much.
......
At midnight.
Jiang Hao was ready and stepped onto the stone slab.
The familiar scene, the original position.
Seeing the other three in place, he followed suit and began to pay his respects.
“Senior Dan Yuan.”
Dan Yuan indeed deserved their respect; so far, their gains had outweighed their contributions.
Dan Yuan said with a smile.
“Do you have any troubles with your cultivation?”
“Senior, if I conceal my cultivation level, how should I act so as not to reveal any abnormalities?” Fairy Gui was the first to speak.
“After cultivation improves, it inherently brings about many changes, and even if you conceal it, so traces will remain. It depends on how good your concealnt techniques are. If the technique is average, then you need to restrain the changes brought by the Nascent Soul,” Dan Yuan explained.
It’s not just these; there’s also the aura in the spiritual energy, the influence of breathing, the flow of blood and qi, the peculiarity in one’s gaze, the extension of the spirit, changes in behavior and movent.
After taking action, one must also be wary of fluctuations in spiritual energy and physical changes to truly conceal one’s cultivation level.
Jiang Hao added.
But these things he could not say; even if he did, they wouldn’t be able to grasp it unless he gave them the naless secret manual.
But he would not hand over that manual.
He could give away other secret manuals, but not this one.
It was too terrifying.
Fairy Gui nodded, asking no further questions.
Liu and Xing were busy with his clone, learning secret techniques.
Finally, Dan Yuan turned his gaze to Jiang Hao.
After hesitating, Jiang Hao asked:
“What is needed to improve one’s mastery of formations?”
“Mastery of formations?” Dan Yuan pondered for a mont.
“Talent, a good teacher, diligence, and enough ti, as well as sufficient formations. Analyzing formations can help understand their structure, and with enough talent, one can infer other principles from one. Without sufficient talent, there’s a lack of agility. If that’s the case, there’s only one path: spend more ti analyzing formations, the more you understand, the higher your mastery will be.”
“Analyzing formations?”
Jiang Hao thought for a mont and realized that the Tianyin Sect didn’t have that many formations.
There were many formation masters within the sect, but there wasn’t a specific lineage dedicated to teaching formations.
Even if there were, he probably wouldn’t spend ti learning.
Learning basic formations was less valuable than continuing to study talismans, aiming for the heights that very few could reach.
Seeing no further questions, Dan Yuan said,
“Then let’s talk about your gains. Do you have any news about the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower or the Heavenly Extre Calamity Bead?”
Everyone shook their heads.
“Then let’s discuss the new mission: enter the Corpse Realm to find sothing. Can anyone enter?”
Jiang Hao felt he could try to complete this task.
He just didn’t want to say it now.
However, Fairy Gui suddenly spoke up.
“I think I can try; I’ve already obtained the qualifications to enter the Corpse Realm.”
Hearing this, Jiang Hao was shocked.
How was that possible?
Fairy Gui was in the Tiannan Prefecture, and the Tiannan Prefecture was right next to the Youyun Prefecture.
That ant she was in the south.
But where in the south could one find a Corpse Realm Flower?
As far as he knew, only the Tianyin Sect had it.
“...”
Was Fairy Gui in the Tianyin Sect?
