Was Our Heaven's Mandate Really So Casual?

Gui Li was completely bewildered. Gui Li said to Senior Brother Xinghe, do you want to hear what you're saying...?

Didn't you understand what I just meant?

The Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance occurs because the three elements reach a state of equilibrium under certain specific conditions. If we suddenly change the amount of resources invested, then the equilibrium of the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance will be directly broken!

Once broken, the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance will disappear directly. With the disappearance of the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance, the resources we currently have will no longer be available daily.

Therefore, the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance is like a rooster that lays golden eggs for anyone. Anyone who gets such a golden egg-laying rooster will take good care of it, fearing that any problem will cause the golden eggs to be lost.

Senior Brother Xinghe, what the hell is this? You're turning a rooster that lays golden eggs into stir-fried chicken without warning, isn't that a bit absurd?

In response to Gui Li's objection, Chu Xinghe retorted on the spot, "Gui Li, what are you panicking for... Just tell me whether you believe your Senior Brother Xinghe or not!"

Just you wait and see, your Senior Brother Xinghe is very steady when he makes a move!

Gui Li: "..."

Although Gui Li really wanted to say, "Let's just forget about it, Senior Brother Xinghe. We've already made a killing, don't mess around..."

But after carefully considering Senior Brother Xinghe's methods, Gui Li ultimately remained silent!

Seeing the silent Gui Li, Chu Xinghe also took Ma Liang and left the Civil Engineering Department, arriving at the Formation Spirit Palace!

The entire Haotian Mountain Range is actually covered by a massive array, and all the Spiritual Qi in the Haotian Mountain Range is guided by the array.

Therefore, the resources that are being poured into the Haotian Mountain Range every day are naturally from the Formation Spirit Palace, which is responsible for the array formations!

Recently, Elder Ling Mou Formation Spirit Palace has been giving us countless instructions!

Every single resource transported into the Haotian Mountain Range must be delivered flawlessly!

After all, this involves the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance; the slightest mistake could result in a huge loss for our Vast Heaven Holy Land.

Therefore, the ordinary disciples of the Formation Spirit Palace who were in charge of the formation of the Haotian Mountain Range were replaced by Ling Yun, the chief disciple of the Formation Spirit Palace!

Ling Yun is Elder Ling Mou's grandson. Although he is Elder Ling Yun's grandson, Elder Ling Mou has very strict requirements for him.

Ling Yun grew up under the strictest discipline of Elder Ling Mou, so she was naturally exceptionally outstanding.

After entering the Vast Heaven Holy Land, Elder Ling Mou demanded that Ling Yun treat himself as a disciple of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, reminding him that he was first and foremost a disciple of the Vast Heaven Holy Land Ling Mou, and only secondly his grandson!

Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're my Ling Mou!

This is the Vast Heaven Holy Land; no one is allowed to act recklessly here!

Therefore, under Ling Mou's tutelage, Ling Yun is truly exceptional.

"Ling Yun greets Senior Brother Xinghe! Greetings to Senior Brother Ma Liang!"

Seeing that Senior Brother Xinghe and Senior Brother Ma Liang had come together, Ling Yun quickly came forward to pay her respects.

"Senior Brother Xinghe, I think we should revisit the topic of Body Cultivation disciples learning formations... They really have absolutely no room for improvement..."

Ling Yun couldn't help but complain to her Senior Brother Xinghe at this point.

Previously, you had your junior brothers and sisters who lacked talent learn formations. With the blessing of the Formation-Locking Jade, even Ling Yun had to admit that Senior Brother Xinghe was simply invincible!

But it's truly absurd for Body Cultivation disciple to come and learn formations...

If you want to learn formations, I mean, don't you need Spirit Power first?

It's like buying a lottery ticket. If you want to win the grand prize, shouldn't you buy a lottery ticket first?

If we don't even buy lottery tickets, how can we possibly win the grand prize?

In Ling Yun's eyes, the current Body Cultivation disciples are like a bunch of people who don't even have a lottery ticket, yet they insist on winning the grand prize. Isn't that a bit absurd?

Hearing Ling Yun's words, Chu Xinghe was so angry he almost wet himself!

Ling Yun, oh Ling Yun, what are you saying here?

What do you mean Body Cultivation disciples are no good? I was in a perfectly good mood, why did you start cursing the moment we met!

Why is it that Body Cultivation disciples can't learn formations?

Putting aside the learning outcomes, can you just say whether our Body Cultivation disciples have worked hard enough in their studies?

Given how hard our juniors are working, shouldn't we encourage them? How can we say they can't do it?

"Well... Ling Yun, the time isn't right to discuss matters concerning Body Cultivation disciples, so let's not talk about that now. I've come today to discuss the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance!"

"Oh, oh... Senior Brother Xinghe, please rest assured, Elder Ling Mou has entrusted this matter to me. I personally oversee it every day, and I guarantee that all resources sent into the Spirit Formation will remain unchanged. So please don't worry, Senior Brother Xinghe!"

Upon hearing Ling Yun's words, Chu Xinghe exclaimed, "I'm not at all reassured!"

What I'm most worried about is this kind of distribution...

Isn't your investment strategy overly conservative?

"No... Ling Yun, I came here to talk to you about changing the amount of resources we're investing!"

Ling Yun: "???"

Ling Yun was completely stunned... Only Senior Brother Xinghe could say such a thing. If it were anyone else, Ling Yun's first reaction would definitely be to shout for help... There's an undercover agent! The undercover agent has been exposed!

This undercover agent wants to destroy our Vast Heaven Holy Land!

He practically screams "undercover agent" on his face!

But how could Senior Brother Xinghe be an undercover agent?

If you say I, Ling Yun, am an undercover agent, then my grandfather would be the first to kill me. But to say that Senior Brother Xinghe is an undercover agent, isn't that a bit far-fetched?

"Well... Senior Brother Xinghe, once the amount of resources invested changes, the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance will also undergo irreversible changes. Elder He and Gui Li have both studied this, so... are you sure you want to make the change?"

"Sure!"

Ling Yun: "..."

Afterwards, Ling Yun led Senior Brother Xinghe and Senior Brother Ma Liang to the Spirit Formation and personally explained the amount that needed to be invested in the Spirit Formation each day.

"Senior Brother Xinghe, the total amount of these resources was personally calculated by the White Tiger Holy Venerable, my grandfather, and Elder Ling Mou. The total amount of resources invested each day absolutely cannot deviate in any way... And if it is changed now... I'm afraid there will be a big problem... If the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance causes an irreversible deviation... then the resources we earn every day will probably be completely lost!"

Ling Yun opened her mouth with a wry smile, but upon hearing Ling Yun words, Chu Xinghe thought, "Look... Ling Yun, you can at least say auspicious things, can't you?"

So if you're going to say something auspicious, then say it more often... but don't just say things like "make a fortune, make a fortune" all the time, it sounds so awful!

"Ling Yun, don't worry, just make the changes as I ask, and I'll take responsibility for all the consequences!"

Chu Xinghe a faint smile and said, "Don't worry, Junior Brother Lingyun, what are you panicking about?"

When did it become your place to take the blame in our Vast Heaven Holy Land?

You have absolutely no right to take the blame!

Just do as I say this time. No matter how big a mess you make, let them all come after me. It has absolutely nothing to do with you...

"Okay... alright... but... but Senior Brother Xinghe... are you sure you don't want to report this to the Grand Elder?" Ling Yun was genuinely panicked at this point.

After all, he's always been a good kid. He's always been subjected to the strictest discipline since childhood, and he's never done anything like this before.

"Tsk tsk... Junior Brother Lingyun... That's not right of you. Why should we report to the Grand Elder? Wouldn't it be better to give him a huge surprise right away?"

Regarding the enormous surprise Senior Brother Xinghe mentioned, Ling Yun asked, "Senior Brother Xinghe, are you sure?"

Isn't this a huge shock?

However, Ling Yun knew that Senior Brother Xinghe's arrangement was fine. Ling Yun came to the formation and said to Senior Brother Xinghe, "You tell me, how should we change it?"

"We..." Chu Xinghe thought for a moment, just about to suggest how to make the changes!

But then I thought, no!

This Misfortune Compass is cheating, folks... No matter how we modify it, what if it suddenly activates its Misfortune Compass and becomes even stronger after the changes?

So after thinking it over, Chu Xinghe turned his gaze to Ma Liang, who was picking his fingers over there!

"Ma Liang!"

"Huh? What's wrong, Senior Brother Xinghe?"

Ma Liang stared at Senior Brother Xinghe with a puzzled look on his face. Ma Liang hadn't said a word since the beginning, and now that his name had suddenly been called, Ma Liang completely bewildered!

"Um... what do you think we should do to change this?"

Ma Liang: "???"

Ma Liang thought to himself, "Senior Brother Xinghe, aren't you giving me a little too much Ma Liang?"

I, Ma Liang, know a little about formations, but I really know absolutely nothing about earth veins!

This topic of the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance is so profound; how could my Ma Liang mind possibly understand it?

So, Senior Brother Xinghe, isn't it a bit too far-fetched for you to ask me how to adjust this now?

"Don't just stand there! It's you! How do you think it should be adjusted? Should the amount of spirit stones added be reduced or increased? By how much? By how much? Just name a number!"

Ma Liang: "???"

Ma Liang was truly dumbfounded... This Senior Brother Xinghe... is he really that casual?

Can't we just give any number? Isn't this about the Earth Vein Three-Way Resonance? Is it appropriate for us to treat such a serious matter so casually?

"Senior Brother Xinghe, stop fooling around... How would I know how to do it? You should do it..."

No... it's you!

"I... I really don't know how to do it!"

"Ma Liang, you must believe in destiny... So whether to add or subtract, how much to add or subtract, just name a number, and this hand will be destiny!"

Ma Liang: "???"

Ma Liang retorted, "Senior Brother Xinghe, are we so casual about matters of destiny?"

But seeing Senior Brother Xinghe's determined gaze, Ma Liang figured that since Senior Brother Xinghe was so resolute, there must be a deeper meaning. So, Ma Liang gritted his teeth, stamped his foot, and said, "Then shall I just say whatever comes to mind?"

"Casual!"

"Then... cut it in half?"

"Ling Yun, reduce it by half as your Senior Brother Ma Liang suggested!"

Ling Yun: "..."

Ma Liang: "No, no, no... I don't think reducing it by half is appropriate. Let's increase it by half instead!"

"Ling Yun, just do as your Senior Brother Ma Liang said, increase it by half!"

Ling Yun: "..."

Ma Liang: "No, no, no, I don't think increasing it by half is appropriate. Let's double it!"

"Ling Yun, double the amount as your Senior Brother Ma Liang suggested!"

Ling Yun: "..."

Ling Yun said, "No... Senior brothers, is our family's destiny really so arbitrary? Absolutely arbitrary?"
