I furrowed my brows as I chewed over Myriad Qi Immortal Lord's explanation, and my expression inevitably darkened. In other words, obtaining the Venerable Cauldron wasn't simply a matter of whose power was stronger or greater. At the very least, being restricted by the Heaven and Earth Creation Formation was certain. I had experienced this formation myself: controlling one formation eye with a single thought, and using each formation eye to connect to one of the formation's meridians.
Thus, anyone who entered it would bring about different changes within it according to their performance. If they achieved the purpose of creation, the formation would subtly transform, gradually filling in the missing parts of the formation.
Put simply, it used the formation eyes to extract the meridian imprints left behind when others released spells and employed techniques—in other words, their execution procedures—and then incorporated them into its own artificial intelligence. Relying on that artificial intelligence to complete the formation's terminal program, the terminal computer would ultimately make the entire formation run the questions and objectives set by its designer. For example, the purpose set for the Formation Sovereign's Tomb above was to ultimately complete the creation of the Venerable Cauldron. Thus, after collecting and perfecting the procedures over countless years, it had finally been manufactured!
Of course, there must have been plenty of forces pushing things along behind the scenes. One of them was undoubtedly the creativity of the Heart of the Universe. It should have directly provided Myriad Qi Immortal Lord with the opportunity to emerge—or perhaps it had activated Myriad Qi Immortal Lord's formation, completed the Venerable Cauldron, and allowed him to successfully escape from the formation.
And now, a similar formation had also been designed atop Mount Buzhou. It was just that neither its procedures nor its purpose
