Endless baleful qi surged forth, as though great formations were emerging one after another.
The path of formations was not easy to cultivate.
Formations encompassed all things, but the heart of a formation was one's own heart.
The heavier the slaughter, the more powerful the formation.
The baleful qi between Heaven and Earth seemed to condense within it.
Among the disciples of the Three Sects present, some were frightened, while others were uneasy.
Such a formation was extraordinarily profound.
As Gu Changsheng comprehended it, Daoist Randeng could not help but glance at him again.
"Could it be that this child also wishes to cultivate the path of formations?"
There was considerable coldness in Daoist Randeng's eyes.
After all, Gu Changsheng's innate foundation had changed.
That innate foundation approaching that of an innate divine demon made him somewhat angry.
Now, Tongtian was explaining the path of formations.
Could this child be comprehending it again?
Daoist Duobao also glanced at Gu Changsheng.
Daoist Duobao knew deeply that even he had yet to fully comprehend his master's path of formations.
Such a formation Dao was highly mysterious, entirely unlike the Dao of Heaven and Earth or the Way of Non-action.
It would not be easy for Gu Changsheng to comprehend this path of formations.
Gu Changsheng sensed the path of formations.
Time passed, and another hundred years went by before anyone noticed.
Sect Leader Tongtian's explanation of the path of formations was also nearing its end.
"The path of formations encompasses all things and is rather complex. If you comprehend it diligently, you will gain the wonders of formations."
Sect Leader Tongtian's voice rang out, and Gu Changsheng and the other disciples of the Three Sects answered in unison, "This disciple shall remember."
Sect Leader Tongtian's sacred gaze swept over Gu Changsheng again.
"Gu Changsheng, how much have you comprehended?"
The disciples of the Three Sects looked at one another, all shocked.
No one had expected Sect Leader Tongtian to question Gu Changsheng.
Turtle Spirit Holy Mother gave a soft snort, somewhat displeased.
"This disciple is dull-witted and has only comprehended a little of the formation Dao."
"To comprehend even a little of the formation Dao within a hundred years shows that your comprehension is exceptional."
Sect Leader Tongtian's sacred gaze fell upon the disciples of the Three Sects.
"You must comprehend it carefully. The path of formations will benefit you greatly."
"This disciple shall remember!"
As the disciples of the Three Sects finished speaking, Sect Leader Tongtian's holy phantom vanished from the void!
Devouring Spiritual Qi Like a Whale, Conflict Among the Three Sects!
After the Three Pure Ones expounded the Dao, every disciple gained something.
Gu Changsheng suddenly felt the spiritual qi throughout his body surge wildly, as though it were about to break through a bottleneck.
With a tremendous boom, under the impact of Gu Changsheng's spiritual power, the bottleneck shattered in an instant.
Gu Changsheng then stepped into the late Golden Immortal realm!
Endless spiritual qi tore through the air.
Within this Dao field, spiritual qi whirled like a vortex.
Gu Changsheng's breakthrough was like a stone creating a thousand ripples, completely shattering the silence of the Dao field.
Pop! Pop!
A series of sounds rang out. Among the Chan Sect disciples, Guang Chengzi, Chijingzi, and Grand Unity True Person all drew the spiritual power vortices toward themselves.
Under the Three Pure Ones' exposition of the Dao, disciples such as Guang Chengzi were continuously breaking through.
Originally, the spiritual qi within Jade Void Palace had been mist-like, hazy, and vast.
But as Guang Chengzi and the others advanced in cultivation and were about to break through their realms—
The spiritual qi suddenly dwindled.
Even the spiritual qi of the Jade Void Palace Dao field became somewhat insufficient.
Guang Chengzi and the others continued to seize boundless spiritual qi from elsewhere, even from the vast lands beyond Jade Void Palace.
After all, everyone was in the midst of a breakthrough, and there was clearly not enough spiritual qi.
This provoked a strong reaction from some disciples.
In particular, Daoist Duobao, who was at a bottleneck.
After listening to the Three Pure Ones expound the Dao, he too suddenly felt that he was about to break through.
But the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around him suddenly diminished sharply.
This infuriated Daoist Duobao, who was in the midst of cultivation.
The path of cultivation required not only comprehending Dao methods, but also devouring Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Yet now, if he lacked spiritual qi when he was on the verge of breaking through, his efforts would yield half the results for twice the effort.
As Daoist Duobao seized spiritual qi, a tremendous boom rang out, and streams of golden light enveloped Guang Chengzi.
In an instant, Guang Chengzi seemed to be bathing within a Spiritual Sea.
He had broken through!
The Golden Immortal realm was complete!
Chijingzi and Grand Unity True Person were also in the midst of breakthroughs.
This infuriated Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, who was close to breaking through.
The spiritual qi was already dwindling, yet he was still condensing a sea of spiritual qi. What a waste of Heaven's gifts!
Turtle Spirit Holy Mother was on the verge of fighting Guang Chengzi.
Daoist Duobao's seizure of spiritual qi, meanwhile, dragged much of it toward the Interception Sect.
This act of Daoist Duobao's clearly angered True Person Puxian and Juliusun.
They had originally been about to break through.
Yet halfway through, Daoist Duobao had caused such trouble.
Juliusun opened his eyes and stared at Daoist Duobao.
Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi continuously swirled.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi outside Jade Void Palace had grown noticeably scarce as well.
Gu Changsheng saw beads of sweat continuously falling from Grand Unity True Person, who appeared to be struggling greatly.
He knew that Grand Unity True Person was also at a bottleneck.
Without hesitation, Gu Changsheng used the Jade Purity Dao Method, devouring like a whale as he shifted the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi that Daoist Duobao had drawn over to the Chan Sect's side.
The instant Grand Unity True Person felt spiritual qi enter his body, he suddenly let out a long howl.
Grand Unity True Person had entered the mid Golden Immortal realm.
Beside him, Chijingzi also let out a long howl. Golden light surged around him like madly rushing golden dragons, swallowing Heaven and Earth.
He too broke through to the mid Golden Immortal realm.
This was more than Daoist Duobao could bear.
Why did you, Gu Changsheng, get to steal our spiritual qi?
Daoist Duobao could not help glaring angrily at Gu Changsheng.
Rumble!
A tremendous boom resounded, as if the Spiritual Sea were violently shaking.
Beside Gu Changsheng, Xuan Du's spiritual power fluctuated throughout his body as he too was in the midst of a breakthrough.
As Daoist Duobao continued drawing spiritual qi, his entire body filled with an unfathomable aura.
That unfathomable aura surged without end.
It was like countless brilliant golden lights, and like jeweled necklaces winding around his body.
Amid everyone's shocked gazes, Daoist Duobao let out a long howl and broke through to become a Great Perfection Golden Immortal.
He was only one step away from entering the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.
But the momentum created by Daoist Duobao's breakthrough was simply too powerful.
Among the Chan Sect disciples, True Person Puxian and Juliusun, who were in the midst of breakthroughs, were sent flying by him.
Even their Dao Hearts trembled violently.
Such behavior was truly overbearing.
The endless spiritual qi continued to churn.
Before you continue
