Looking at the vast lake, Xiao Heng sat cross-legged. With a shift of his hand seals, streaks of light shot from his Storage Ring. As his final seal fell, a stream of five-colored energy surged forth, joining those lights as they shot into the sky.
Centered on the three brightest beads, radiant patterns rapidly spread outward. In the end, a massive Formation Array appeared above Heaven Lake.
"Three-Way Formation... activate!"
With a sharp shout, Xiao Heng changed his hand seals. The great formation began to rumble as it operated. As it rotated, a suction force emanated from it, drawing the energy from the Heavenly Pool below and pouring it directly into the three bright, star-like beads.
As energy flooded in, the formation rotated ever faster, and the energy contained within those three beads rapidly increased as well.
"It really works...!" Joy appeared on Xiao Heng's face at the sight. Although this place was unusual, the energy it contained was exceptionally pure and vast—perfect for replenishing energy.
Moreover, this great formation could transform energy. In other words, once these two were combined, they complemented each other perfectly and could greatly increase Xiao Heng's cultivation speed.
"What is this...?" Bai Xi had circled the area and returned after confirming that there was nothing unusual. When she saw the great formation shrouding the Heavenly Pool, confusion appeared in her eyes as she looked at Xiao Heng.
"Just a few methods. It should increase both our cultivation speeds by another thirty percent. But while the energy will become purer after being transformed by the formation, it will also become more violent. When cultivating, remember not to draw in too much power at once. It's best to stay around the outer edge of the formation, or the energy could easily burst you apart," Xiao Heng
