Chapter 215, Inheritance
The newly formed Jade Bamboo knew its function simply by incorporating the jade-colored crystal sphere.
This jade-colored pagoda, shrouded in chaotic energy and referred to as the "Holy Land of Inheritance," was originally named the "Azure Crystal Jade Pagoda." It was a treasure possessing unparalleled power and one of the sect's original Inheritance Halls, which at its peak comprised seven. During the crisis of destruction, the sect leader, the Supreme Elder, and the Transmission Elder each fled with one Inheritance Hall. While the whereabouts of the other Inheritance Halls are unknown, this particular one was exiled into the cosmic sea, enduring countless cycles of reincarnation, and finally lost in the Flowing Heavy Mountains.
That azure crystal sphere is essentially a key to access the first level of the "Azure Crystal Jade Pagoda" in this inheritance hall. By fusing with it, one can unlock the various spatial halls on the first level, allowing for better assistance in learning formations.
As for controlling the entire Azure Crystal Jade Pagoda? That would require fusing at least three crystal spheres to form a preliminary array.
The sect is based on formations, and its most powerful means is naturally formations.
"You have already gained initial control of the first level of the Inheritance Hall. You should know what your next step is." The chaotic aura figure on the throne looked at Qing Yuzhu, his expression still showing a faint detachment. "Of the many halls and spaces on the first level, some you can open now, while others require certain conditions to be met. Go on your own."
"This is our first meeting. If you fail the trial and cannot become a formal disciple of the sect, then this will be our last meeting." The words still echoed in the hall when the throne, along with the figure formed from chaotic energy, vanished, leaving only the voice lingering in the surrounding space. "Once you master the most basic formations, you can leave on your own. If you cannot, you will stay here until the universe is destroyed, until you perish after three cycles of reincarnation, or you can self-destruct your avatar to leave."
The newly grown Qingyu bamboo, millions of kilometers tall, surveyed its surroundings. After merging with the cyan jade-colored crystal beads, it had already discerned the overall layout of the first level of the Qingjing Jade Pagoda.
Within the entire first floor, the most important building is the Hall of Myriad Laws, which preserves the vast majority of the sect's fundamental array formation texts. The other halls, such as the Hall of Time and Space, the Hall of a Thousand Stars, and the Jade Palace, each have their own important roles, but they are still slightly inferior to the Hall of Myriad Laws.
The newly born Qing Yuzhu walked to the right, where a jade-colored gate, a million kilometers high, was tightly closed. If it were opened by brute force, even the strongest beings in the entire universe would be useless.
A jade-green bamboo branch stretched out, and the Jade Bamboo, having fused with the crystal bead, had sufficient authority to open this door.
Silently, the newly formed, million-kilometer-tall divine body of Qingyuzhu disappeared from the main hall and arrived at the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws. The jade-green gate, however, remained unchanged for countless years.
This is an ocean several light-years in diameter. A newly sprouted Qingyu bamboo branch reached down and discovered that the ocean's waters were filled with unclaimed divine power.
If he wished, he could now allow the newly born Qingyuzhu to absorb this unclaimed divine power, bringing its divine body to 80% of his own Qingyuzhu clone.
That was a colossal divine body with a height exceeding two hundred million kilometers.
But there's no need. The main purpose of this newly sprouted Jade Bamboo is to comprehend secret techniques, not to fight. He extended its branches into the ocean, and under the control of the jade-colored crystal bead fused with his soul, black pebbles floated up from the seabed.
One thousand, ten thousand, one million, one hundred million...
Hundreds of millions of black pebbles formed two mountain peaks, one large and one small. The larger peak contained over a hundred million black pebbles. The smaller peak was divided into two parts: the base contained the most pebbles, numbering in the tens of thousands, and seven more prominent pebbles, which appeared at the summit.
These jet-black pebbles are memory stones commonly found on the Origin Continent; they can receive inheritance as long as they are enveloped in divine power. And those seven memory stones are the foundation of the sect's inheritance.
Ye Muxuan has not yet passed the most basic trial, so he has no chance to access the upper-level memory stones. He can only search for the basic explanations of various formations from the tens of thousands of basic inheritance memory stones in Xiaoshan.
The person who guided him into the sect didn't offer any guidance whatsoever.
A bamboo branch extended, its divine power enveloping the 16458 memory stones, and a torrent of vast information surged into Ye Muxuan's mind.
One day, two days, one year, two years.
757 years later, the newly formed Jade Bamboo swayed its branches and leaves, finally understanding all the information contained in the stone containing over ten thousand memories. Several thousand more years passed...
After sorting and summarizing, these messages were finally sorted out, and tens of thousands of years had passed in total.
The art of formations is profound and boundless. The most common types include killing formations, trapping formations, bewildering formations, illusion formations, spirit formations, mind formations, and intent formations. The materials used to set up formations are incredibly diverse, ranging from common plants, trees, bamboo, and stones to mountains, rivers, stars, and even the void itself. At its peak, formations were even created using spacetime itself, inscribing formations within the fabric of time and space!
Compared to that, the law-related secret patterns on the stone pillar he had previously encountered were nothing at all!
While array formations may seem less important than those powerful individuals who specialize in killing, no powerful individual dares to allow them to set up arrays with ease. For array masters, killing opponents of higher levels is never just empty talk.
In the virtual universe, on Thunder Island, amidst the chaotic currents swirling atop the mountain, beside the cliff, the Chaos City Lord, clad in golden robes, looked at Ye Muxuan and said, "Muxuan, you rarely seek me out."
What's going on this time?
"Does Master Uncle remember the mountain giant that appeared on the Primordial Star?" Ye Muxuan sat down beside the cliff. "He contacted me some time ago, intending to follow me and join the Hong Alliance. I've come to ask Master Uncle's opinion."
"That mountain giant who defeated the demon race's Venerable Tianhua on Primordial Star 02467 and seized a high-grade treasure, the Star Enclosure Lord?" Upon hearing Ye Muxuan's words, the Chaos City Lord's eyes lit up.
The mountain giant who appeared more than halfway through the opening of the primordial star was known as the Star Enclosure Lord by many powerful beings in the primordial universe because he possessed a high-grade treasure set hammer called "Star Enclosure." He was one of the top cosmic overlords who emerged after the opening of the primordial star.
Its fame was almost on par with that of Qing Yuzhu and Ye Muxuan's Huangque clone back then.
However, Qing Yuzhu joined the Northern Frontier Alliance, Huang is an avatar of Ye Muxuan, and the mountain giant's allegiance has never been determined.
"Yes, it's him." Ye Muxuan said with a smile, "It's probably because I have a Huang clone, and the Star Enclosure Lord is also a rock-based life form."
So he still has a good impression of me, and he's willing to follow me and join the Hongmeng.
"Since you are willing to follow me and join the Hong Alliance, that's a good thing. I can agree on behalf of the Giant Axe. As long as Lord Xingyuan joins the Hong Alliance, the Hong Alliance can give him a treasure worth the equivalent of a high-grade supreme treasure armor." The Chaos City Lord was overjoyed and immediately made the promise.
The leader of the Hongmeng (Human Alliance) is the strongest being in the universe, the creator of the Giant Axe, but the Lord of Chaos City can make decisions on ordinary matters.
Currently, the human race only has four top-tier cosmic overlords, including the Palace Master of the White Phoenix Palace. Other overlords, such as the Undying Emperor of Guiyi, are still somewhat lacking. The Star Fortress Lord's strength is no less than that of the Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace, and as a special life form, he doesn't have many clansmen to care for. Joining the Hong Alliance would make him an outstanding general.
"After joining the Hong Alliance, I plan to first place him in the Abyss of Purgatory," Ye Muxuan said slowly. "I've gained some insights during this time, and I may need to cultivate in seclusion for a while."
He needed to concentrate on studying formations, so he couldn't be too distracted by other things. He could occasionally come out and give Qing Shuang and the others some pointers, but he needed a subordinate of sufficient caliber to handle daily affairs.
Longyu King is stuck at the limit of the King-Sealing Realm and hasn't become a Venerable yet; otherwise, she would be a very good candidate. Venerable Kuangzhou and the others are quite powerful.
However, King Longyu might not be willing to listen to him.
He could give orders directly, but there's no need; they're smart enough.
Now that the Star Lord has appeared, with the strength of a top-tier cosmic overlord, he is more than capable of suppressing everyone.
"Don't worry, if they can't handle the matter of the Abyss of Purgatory, I will keep an eye on it for you. Whether from the perspective of the race or from your personal perspective, your breakthrough to the level of the Lord of the Universe is more important than anything else." The Lord of Chaos City also spoke solemnly.
He has already created the strongest secret technique of the universe master before even breaking through. Once he breaks through, he will at least be as strong as the Ice Peak Master. In addition, he obtained the treasure left by the Lord of the Forbidden Demon Island, so he may be about the same as me.
The appearance of a fifth-order universe lord is more important to the race than the entire Purgatory Abyss!
