Chapter 37: Chapter 37 Xiao Cheng Sect, Yun Mengqing

Li Xiaobai felt very annoyed at heart, having not expected to run into an old acquaintance in such a place.

What's more, he had not anticipated that Zhang Rui would remain as shameless as ever, actually sneaking away with his own Space Ring.

He definitely had to give the other party a good thrashing later on.

To give him a taste of society's sinister nature!

After taking away Li Xiaobai's Space Ring, Zhang Rui retreated back into the crowd, no longer intending to search for treasures.

The man in the black robe looked at him with contempt.

"Heh, to think that a True Disciple of the Tianwu Sect would do something so disgraceful. I wonder how your elders teach you at home."

Zhang Rui's face alternated between pale and flushed, but he said nothing more. He wanted to see what was so mysterious about this formation.

"Why do I not detect even a hint of danger from this formation?"

"I have the same feeling, this formation seems to be all bark and no bite."

"But if you look closely, among the formation there are more than a dozen inner cores of Demonic Beasts, and that cultivator who sent a distress signal before dying; this is clearly a perilous spot!"

"You've got a point, this formation probably killed many Golden Core Stage Demonic Beasts, it's beyond our capability to decipher."

"Fortune favours the bold. Maybe we'll be lucky too!"

The numerous disciples began to chat and discuss spiritedly.

With the emergence of a magical treasure, it was impossible to assume there'd be no danger; years of cultivating experience told them that no treasure could be easily obtained.

Forget treasures, even picking a Spirit Grass by the mountainside could lead to unimaginable dangers.

Thus, the more peaceful the mountaintop appeared, the more unsettled everyone felt.

There was definitely something wrong with the formation, but the entire group was unable to perceive exactly what the problem was, leaving them somewhat at a loss for a while.

"Is there any fellow Daoist proficient in formations? Let's study this formation together. If we can decipher it successfully, whatever treasure is found, we'll give them thirty percent!" Xiang Tiandi said.

"I'll do it!"

From the crowd, a female cultivator in white emerged.

"It's Yun Mengqing of the Xiao Cheng Sect!"

"I heard that she was brought back from the Western Desert as a child, inherently inheriting Buddhist teachings!"

"Indeed, it is said that this woman is devoted to cultivation, having already severed all mundane thoughts. Seeing her today, it truly seems the case!"

"With her taking action, it should be possible to succeed!"

Astonishment flashed in Xiang Tiandi's eyes. He had not expected an Immortal from the Xiao Cheng Sect to join this mission.

Having the heritage of Xiao Cheng Buddhism and having studied a myriad of texts from a young age, Yun Mengqing was well-versed in various types of knowledge. Maybe she could uncover the key to this formation.

"We are at your service, Yun Immortal."

"It's nothing," Yun Mengqing replied indifferently, stepping towards the formation.

She first examined Li Xiaobai's injury and couldn't help but frown. She observed not the slightest sign of injury on Li Xiaobai; he appeared as if merely asleep.

Could it be a spiritual injury?

Yun Mengqing knew that the most malevolent attacks in the world were not aimed at the body, but struck directly at the Primordial Spirit.

With the sea of consciousness obliterated, all profound Mana was rendered vain.

It seemed she needed to be cautious.

Sitting in meditation, her hands continuously evolved formation patterns in the void, seeking to deduce the essence of the formation before her.

Trails of faint Daoist marks manifested in the void, intertwining incessantly, and under the flow of their Daoist rhyme, everyone present was deeply astounded.

Yun Mengqing, merely at the pinnacle of the Golden Core Stage, had reached such an extent in her comprehension of the natural order of the universe. It was indeed extraordinary, showing early signs of invincibility.

The formation pattern in the void resonated with Yun Mengqing's Dantian, and the grand chanting of the Dao rolled forth, like the whispering of gods and Buddhas.

"This formation does have some tricks," she murmured with a light chuckle.

In her Dantian, a halo of light emerged, and in the void, a golden Buddha Dharma Form materialized, holding scriptures, with profound eyes that seemed to be whispering.

Being in this world, many cultivators felt their Spiritual Platforms clear up, their understanding of their own cultivation techniques increased, and the hurdles in their realms that had bound them for a long time showed signs of loosening.

They were even more astonished in their hearts. It was only an unusual phenomenon evolving from a Dantian, yet it was able to induce those nearby to break through together.

Was a cultivator with a lineage truly that terrifying?

Li Xiaobai was also somewhat nervous, as the Attribute Points in front of him jumped continuously.

[Attribute Point +10...]

[Attribute Point +10...]

This woman called Yun Mengqing sure made a grand scene; her operation of the cultivation technique was also highly effective. She wouldn't really be able to discern the essence of this formation, would she?

If that were the case, he would become the public enemy of everyone here.

However, at this point, he could only brace himself and continue the act, hoping the formation set up by his senior wasn't just pedestrian work.

The situation was much better than expected.

Even after evolving in the void for a long time, Yun Mengqing still furrowed her brows, appearing rather troubled.

She had run through the calculations dozens of times, but the result was different each time, as if the formation in front of her was a living thing, changing every moment.

No wonder so many cultivators believed the formation to be powerless, no wonder it had killed so many Golden Core Stage Demonic Beasts, no wonder this nameless cultivator died in such a bizarre manner.

Such a formation, she had never seen in her life, it was too astonishing.

She stood up, casually picked up a stone, and threw it into the formation, but nothing happened.

Then she took out a Spirit Stone and threw it in, still, nothing happened.

"How is it?" she asked Tian Di.

"This formation has something to it, but I have seen through it. The formation changes every moment. It is random whether it becomes a Slaughter Formation or an utterly harmless one. As of now, this formation has no offensive power, and one can enter and exit at will," said Yun Mengqing.

Li Xiaobai's face twitched slightly. What this woman said sounded pretty convincing. He really didn't know whether to call her an ignorant teammate or a divine assist.

"Since that is the case, then what are we waiting for? Hurry and take out the Treasure Box. We can discuss the distribution later!" said Tian Di, eager to dash out.

Just then, a white figure flashed by, rushing directly towards the Treasure Box within the formation—it was Zhang Rui, who had been waiting for a long time.

A touch of mockery flashed in Tian Di's eyes. He had just made a pretense of wanting to draw others to test the formation; he had not expected Zhang Rui to actually take the bait.

So what if you get the Treasure Box?

This place was atop a mountain, with a cliff behind, and there was only one way down. In the end, wouldn't he still have to hand over the Treasure Box?

However, not many cultivators could see the situation clearly. Seeing Zhang Rui take the lead in getting his hands on the Treasure Box without being attacked by the formation, their eyes immediately turned red with envy.

Many cultivators activated their techniques, rushing towards his location, wanting to snatch the Treasure Box.

More and more cultivators surged forward, and in the chaos, Tian Di and a few other elites had no choice but to join the fray.

There was only one path down the mountain, and unless someone was there to block it, whoever could seize the Treasure Box could own it.

The air on the mountain top churned, rocks shattered.

Cultivation techniques of various colors collided.

Yet no one noticed that the corpse lying at the edge of the formation had, at some point, disappeared without a trace...
