Heart of the Dao of Formations, the Jingle of a Bell

Heavenly Lake Holy Land.

A misty, ethereal atmosphere prevailed, and exotic flowers and Rare Flowers and Exotic Herbs bloomed everywhere.

At this moment, on the Jade Grass, the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord and Chen Ning sat facing each other.

Mu Tianji's brows furrowed deeply.

This was simply because the news Chen Ning brought was too shocking.

The Shattered Star Realm is teetering on the brink of collapse and may be about to invade the Nine Provinces.

If it really is a large-scale invasion.

This will be an unprecedented calamity for Nine Provinces.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, a large number of beings and powerful figures from the Shattered Star Realm were suppressed in the interdimensional passage by a joint effort of many powerful figures from the Nine Provinces.

But now...

The Nine Provinces have lost their former glory.

In fact, across the vast Nine Provinces, it would take a total of five Saints to gather.

The Yellow Springs Saint and the Spear Saint of the Asura Divine Sect.

The Saint Wangyou in the Yin-Yang Holy Land.

Heavenly Lake has two Saints: one is Mu Tianji himself, and the other is unable to act for some reason.

In addition.

The Beyond the Heavens messenger died in the Nine Provinces Realm.

The implications are significant.

Although there has been no movement from Beyond the Heavens, it is unlikely that the Shattered Star Realm will offer any assistance should they attack this time.

Everything.

Nine Provinces itself has to shoulder the burden.

This can be considered a slight reminder from Beyond the Heavens.

Mu Tianji was naturally aware of this.

"The threat from the Shattered Star Realm must be guarded against. Tomorrow, I will send out a message inviting the leaders of various super powers to a meeting."

Mu Tianji spoke in a deep voice.

It's clear that the fate of Nine Provinces rests on this old man's shoulders; he certainly bears immense pressure.

At this moment, the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord laughed and said, "Your Dragon-Seeking Sect is truly legendary. Each generation of sect leaders has had their own extraordinary abilities. I hadn't realized before that you possessed the Heart of the Dao of Formations."

Chen Ning was slightly taken aback.

He immediately realized that it must be related to the formation that could immunize him against bandits at Three Quarters Past Noon.

But.

The Dragon-Seeking Sect is indeed legendary.

The First Generation was the only one who went to Beyond the Heavens on his own.

Eight generations devised such a grand scheme to conceal it from the Beyond the Heavens.

Three generations maintained the status quo.

The fourth generation is brave and fierce.

They are all well-known.

Now, the second generation's array formation skills have been praised by the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord.

Chen Ning, however, was not quite sure what kind of fortuitous opportunity the second generation had bestowed upon him, so he asked, "Please enlighten me Senior Mu."

"Hahaha, this Heart of the Dao of Formations is the culmination of a lifetime's work by the strongest array master. It's not a physical object, but a realm, a level. The strength of the Heart of the Dao of Formations determines what kind of array one can ignore."

"How about mine?"

"Well... none of the protective formations in the Nine Provinces Realm can harm you, including the formation you used against the envoy from Beyond the Heavens that day; it can be ignored."

Upon hearing this...

Chen Ning's heart skipped a beat.

This Heart of the Dao of Formations is unexpectedly powerful.

It is even immune to the Supreme Immortal-Slaying Grand Formation, which can kill Saint.

"This is just the tip of the iceberg. The true power of the Heart of the Dao of Formations lies in array formation, which you cannot yet master. The moment you master it, you will be able to form arrays at will, your thoughts will transform into arrays."

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Mu."

Those Dragon-Seeking Sect are also temporarily at Heavenly Lake.

We've had some rest and repairs done these past few days.

We can leave after the leaders of the various super powers convene at Heavenly Lake tomorrow to discuss matters.

Chen Ning had nothing to do that night.

I then casually strolled around Heavenly Lake.

I'm pondering the connections between many mysteries.

"Master..."

Suddenly, a pleasant voice interrupted Chen Ning's thoughts.

Chen Ning couldn't help but glance over and saw Cang Yue on a golden chariot, a gift from Heavenly Lake that could traverse the void.

Similar to a void warship.

However, it is more refined and comfortable, and of a higher grade than the Void Warship, making it a symbol of prestige in the cultivation world.

"Master, I see you are frowning. Is something troubling you?"

Cang Yue parted her red lips slightly and asked.

Chen Ning shook his head, boarded the carriage, and said casually, "I just thought the night was nice, so I came out for a walk."

"If it is inconvenient for Master to tell me, then I will not ask. I only hope that Master can smile more."

"I am extremely pleased that the Dragon-Seeking Sect has now reached the pinnacle of its prestige."

"Master, my cultivation is only at the Heaven Martial Realm Third Layer, and I am already deeply saddened that I cannot share your burdens with external enemies. Now, let me soothe your mind and body..."

"What's the meaning?"

Chen Ning was puzzled for a moment.

Then.

Then they saw Cang Yue on the carriage, beginning to change her clothes.

Her spatial pouch not only contained resources Law Treasure, but also a strange set of clothes.

The clothes were as thin as cicada wings.

It clings to the body, outlining a captivating silhouette.

The worst part was that she had also tied a bell to her hair.

The crisp, melodious sound was particularly beautiful in the darkness.

"That's amazing!"

Chen Ning felt a bit thirsty.

A perfectly placed blush appeared on Cang Yue's exquisite face. She leaned close to Chen Ning's ear and breathed softly:

"Master, listen for a moment and see if the bell around my neck rings louder, or if I ring louder."

Not long after.

The golden chariot swayed gently.

One night passed.

A pale, fish-belly white dawn appeared on the horizon.

Chen Ning finally remembered his business, took out the Phoenix Essence Blood, and briefly explained its miraculous effects to Cang Yue.

A look of shock appeared on Cang Yue's stunningly beautiful face.

Without hesitation or doubt, he immediately decided to ask his master to help him awaken the Phoenix Bloodline.

If you can.

She certainly wanted to share the burden of external enemies with her master, not just focus on internal affairs.

Time slips away quietly.

Chen Ning looked at the somewhat troubled expression on Cang Yue's beautiful face and felt a little nervous himself.

Ultimately, this is something from Beyond the Heavens.

It's still a bit risky.

However, if you want to become stronger, there is absolutely no risk involved.

Moreover, we have our top young leader Sect Leader Chen, protecting us.

If there are any abnormalities.

The Power of Plunder can be used directly to extract the Phoenix Essence Blood.

Another half hour passed.

Cang Yue's expression gradually calmed down.

Chen Ning released his Divine Sense to investigate and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fine.

No problem at all.

Immediately.

Cang Yue's beautiful eyes suddenly opened, and the instant they opened, the space became scorching hot. Everything on the golden carriage was instantly burned to nothingness, and the clothes of the two people were also completely burned.

The space itself was burned and distorted.

The power of the Phoenix Bloodline is evident.

This is only the beginning of its awakening.

And then...

Above Cang Yue's head, beams of golden light shot up.

"My cultivation level has improved!"

Chen Ning was slightly surprised, and it wasn't just a slight improvement.

He advanced five minor realms in a row, reaching the Heaven Martial Realm Eighth Layer.

Cang Yue also noticed the change in herself immediately, and a look of excitement flashed across her beautiful face.

She gently nestled against Chen Ning's chest and softly said, "Master, I have no way to repay you. In this life, I only wish to bow my head to you alone."

Hearing this suggestive double entendre, Chen Ning couldn't help but chuckle, "You should get used to this bloodline first. After today's meeting, it'll be about time for us to return to the sect."

After leaving the golden carriage, Chen Ning headed straight for the Jade Cluster Peak Heavenly Lake.
