Chapter 692: The Sect's Spirit Gathering Array
...
While Chen Huaian was setting up the formation in the back mountains of Moon Shadow Sect.
In the basin on Earth Star, the final piece of premium Celestial Jade Marrow was almost fully formed. This time, Hua Jin the True One no longer cared about danger or safety—she stood guard right beside the nearly formed Celestial Jade Marrow, refusing to listen no matter how much Zhang Yibai and Wang Shouyi tried to persuade her.
"Today, either the Celestial Jade Marrow and I both survive, or we perish together!"
Hua Jin the True One gripped her folding fan, standing guard before the Celestial Jade Marrow, her beautiful face filled with solemn determination.
"Your Eminence, this won't do... Please come out quickly!" Wang Shouyi's face had turned pale with fear. What if that sword cultivator with tens of thousands of swords floating around him appeared again? Wouldn't Hua Jin the True One just be throwing her life away?
"I'm not coming out!"
Hua Jin the True One plopped down right beside the nearly formed Celestial Jade Marrow, hugging her knees and pouting like a little girl throwing a tantrum after being wronged.
She was determined.
She absolutely had to obtain this final piece of Celestial Jade Marrow.
Seeing this, Zhang Yibai and Wang Shouyi had no choice but to stand guard beside Hua Jin the True One.
Wang Shouyi was trembling with fear, constantly looking around, afraid that some unexpected rival might appear out of nowhere.
Zhang Yibai, however, appeared completely calm and composed.
If his estimation was correct, Chen Huaian probably wouldn't try to snatch this Celestial Jade Marrow from Hua Jin the True One. As the saying goes, even a rabbit will bite when cornered. While Hua Jin the True One might not bite when pushed to the edge, she might disrupt their future plans.
Time passed minute by minute.
A wave of demonic energy approached.
Zhang Yibai's eyelids flickered as he watched Muscle Tyrant slowly flying toward them, a cold, ready-to-strike glint in his eyes.
"You three, may I ask... where did that monster from earlier go?"
Wu E spoke hesitantly.
His rationality told him he shouldn't approach these three to ask. But with Chen Huaian absent and these three standing guard here, he had no other choice.
Zhang Yibai was about to say "none of your business," but considering the role—if this really was Muscle Tyrant—given Muscle Tyrant's relationship with Chen Huaian, he should respond politely.
Even though—Muscle Tyrant would absolutely never care about such matters.
"Not too sure, that Celestial Jade Lion suddenly disappeared on its own." Zhang Yibai stared at Wu E: "Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
"Ah? Because... because..." Wu E stammered: "I feel my master should be very concerned about that heaven and earth spirit creature. Now my master has disappeared, and this heaven and earth spirit creature has vanished too, so I wondered if it might be related to my master..."
Strictly speaking, this matter was indeed related to Chen Huaian.
The Celestial Jade Lion was ninety-nine percent likely taken by Chen Huaian.
It might have already been subdued by Chen Huaian by now.
Zhang Yibai turned to ask Wang Shouyi: "Little Wang, did you see where that Celestial Jade Lion went?"
Wang Shouyi shook his head, looking dazed: "N-no, I don't know..."
"Little Friend Hua Jin, did you see it?"
Hua Jin shook her head repeatedly, saying coldly: "That Celestial Jade Lion seemed to have been teleported away, but I don't know the specific location." Her icy gaze fell upon 'Muscle Tyrant': "As for you, as Senior Chen's pet, you're wandering around here without any sense of propriety! Why are you concerned about the Celestial Jade Lion's whereabouts? Could it be you have some ulterior motives?!"
Wu E's heart jumped, feeling somewhat guilty as he lowered his head.
He thought to himself how terrifyingly aggressive Hua Jin the True One was!
If he weren't currently only at the Nascent Soul level, he would definitely slap Hua Jin the True One.
"I wouldn't dare," he said timidly. "I'm mainly worried about my master's safety..."
"What danger could Senior Chen possibly be in? As for you, return to your original position."
Wu E gained no information from his investigation and instead got thoroughly rebuked, quickly retreating to the edge of the basin.
He gazed at the nearly formed Celestial Jade Marrow at the basin's center and sighed, his face full of worry and distress.
"Ah, I promised my elder brother I'd keep an eye on the Celestial Jade Lion, but when I return, it's already disappeared?"
Wu E felt like the entire world was conspiring against him...
But since Hua Jin the True One said the Celestial Jade Lion was teleported away, that meant the Celestial Jade Lion was definitely still on Earth Star.
As long as the Celestial Jade Lion remained on Earth Star, he and Chen Niu still had a chance to find it.
By then, even if they didn't manage to seize a single piece of Celestial Jade Marrow, they would still come out ahead.
When the Well of Heaven fully opened and the various immortals descended, more immortals would align with their side.
And they would therefore receive rewards from His Lordship.
Thinking this, Wu E couldn't help but curl his lips into a satisfied smile. "I need to quickly relay this news to my elder brother."
But definitely not right now.
He had already found an excuse to distance himself from the basin.
If he ran around again, he would definitely arouse Hua Jin the True One's suspicion.
"This damned bitch!" Wu E snorted coldly, muttering under his breath: "Does she really think of me as a pet? Just wait, when the Well of Heaven fully opens and my power is restored, your Kunlun Immortal Palace will be bathed in blood!"
...
Deep within the Bamboo Sea in the back mountains of Moon Shadow Sect.
Chen Huaian stood atop a newly constructed altar.
The altar was built from crystals representing the primordial energy of heaven, earth, and the five elements.
Its surface was carved with intricate star trajectories and mountain vein patterns so complex they were dizzying to behold.
Seven pieces of premium Celestial Jade Marrow floated before him.
Chen Huaian frowned with deep concentration, following the positions recorded in the jade slip, precisely embedding the Celestial Jade Marrow pieces one by one into the corresponding grooves of the altar's core.
Hum!
When the final piece of marrow slotted into the groove, the entire altar shuddered violently.
The seven pieces of Celestial Jade Marrow simultaneously erupted with blinding purple-gold halos.
These rays of light didn't scatter randomly but rapidly flowed and converged along the deep engravings on the altar's surface!
Like an awakening galaxy rushing along its ancient riverbed!
The light grew increasingly brilliant, finally coalescing into a purple-gold pillar that connected heaven and earth at the altar's center.
That pillar silently pierced through the sect's protective formation, shooting straight into the clouds.
The entire Moon Shadow Sect, and even the ten-thousand-mile mountains and rivers within Moon Shadow Sect's territory—at this moment, heaven and earth abruptly lost their color!
Rumble——!!!
That was resonance from the depths of the earth, from space itself.
A deep, vast pulsation, as if originating from the world's very source, spread out from the altar's center, instantly sweeping across the entire sect!
All disciples, regardless of where they were or what they were doing—
Zhen He, who was meditating in his quiet room, felt the True Essence slowly circulating within him suddenly pushed forward by an invisible giant hand, the bottleneck that had stalled him for years actually showing signs of loosening.
Duan Feng, who was sweating profusely on the training grounds, felt a stream of pure, cool energy instantly flood his limbs and bones, sweeping away all fatigue and making his movements noticeably sharper.
Zhou Xuanzi, who was controlling flames in the alchemy room, watched as the restless flames in his furnace instantly became docile and peaceful, while the medicinal fragrance suddenly intensified.
Xu An, who was comprehending Sword Intent in the Sword Tomb, shuddered throughout his body. The Sword Qi around him, which had been dormant due to exhaustion, uncontrollably activated with a "hum," silently slicing a large boulder beside him in half.
"What's happening?!"
"My True Essence... is circulating on its own?!"
"The bottleneck... the bottleneck is loosening!"
"So pure! The spiritual energy is at least ten times denser than before!"
"Look at the sky!"
Exclamations rose one after another throughout Moon Shadow Sect.
Disciples rushed out of their dwellings, looking up at the sky.
They saw that the originally clear sky was now covered by a layer of faint golden spiritual mist visible to the naked eye.
This spiritual mist wasn't stationary but slowly circulated and descended like a living entity.
It permeated everywhere, gently seeping into every disciple's pores, nourishing their muscles, bones, and flesh, cleansing their meridians and dantians.
Without needing deliberate breathing exercises, every breath felt like drinking celestial nectar.
How could their cultivation speed increase by just ten percent?
This was nothing less than rebirth and transformation!
"This... this seems to be some kind of spirit gathering great formation! It's the Ancestor! It must be the Ancestor who completed the Sect Spirit Gathering Great Formation!"
The Sect Spirit Gathering Great Formation—that was a top-tier formation that only ancient gods and immortals could deploy.
Throughout countless ages, numerous formation masters had attempted to recreate the Sect Spirit Gathering Great Formation. They exhausted their mental energy, they spent their entire lives... yet ultimately failed.
But now, the Sect Spirit Gathering Great Formation had appeared in Moon Shadow Sect!
Knowledgeable elders were so excited they wept tears of joy, kowtowing toward the back mountains.
"Ancestor's divine might!" Waves of roaring voices instantly swept through the entire sect, carrying endless ecstasy and reverence.
Chen Huaian stood at the altar's center, within that heaven-reaching light pillar.
Bathed in intensely concentrated purple-gold light, he felt the immense power transmitted from the altar beneath his feet, as if connected to the entire Cangyun Realm's earth veins.
He could clearly "see" incredibly pure spiritual energy spreading out violently from the altar center like an invisible tide.
Covering every inch of the sect's land, nourishing every disciple.
Chen Huaian's lips curled into a faint, satisfied smile.
Success!
However, while this vast spiritual energy torrent surged according to the formation's trajectory, nourishing the sect—
A more subtle, refined, and "purified" primordial energy from the formation core didn't completely merge into the spiritual energy tide spreading through the sect.
Like streams finding their way home, they silently followed the ancient formation patterns at the altar's base that connected to the earth's deepest layers, seeping down thread by thread.
Silently and imperceptibly, they merged into Cangyun Realm's vast earth veins that had long been on the verge of depletion and were riddled with cracks.
The withered, cracked earth vein rock layers greedily sucked in this sudden sweet rain.
An extremely faint trace of vitality quietly sprouted within those veins that had been silent for eons.
