He discovered that the first floor of the attic was where memorial tablets were placed, but unfortunately, the tablets had all been taken away.

Only an empty altar remained.

After taking a couple of steps inside, I discovered that once I reached the attic, the spatial pressure had actually disappeared.

"If you two can't stand it, you can come in. There's no pressure in here."

Ning Qi turned around and spoke to the two of them.

"Good!"

"Let's go."

The two had already struggled to leave the training ground. Hearing Ning Qi say that there was no pressure here, they supported each other once again and walked over here.

Wei Xian and the Holy Ancestor helped each other to the door of the pavilion.

The two glanced at each other, then went inside together.

The moment they stepped across the threshold, they simultaneously felt the terrifying pressure on their bodies disappear.

This instantly put the two of them at ease.

"Really!"

Wei Xian stretched his somewhat stiff body.

Feeling the renewed flow of Immortal Power, he couldn't help but say, "There's really no pressure here."

"Yes, this attic is a good place."

The Holy Lord also appeared relaxed, surveying his surroundings.

"Haha! That's not bad."

Wei Xian looked at the Holy Ancestor and said thoughtfully, "If we really need to use the Chaos Stones and Formation outside for cultivation later, and need to make adjustments, isn't this a place to rest?"

"That's right!"

The Holy Lord rubbed his hands together and looked around the room. "This pavilion is a bit old, but it's not bad. I'll go find someone to clean it up right away."

"And take all the offering table and memorial tablets out of their possession."

Ning Qi smiled and said, "Don't expect to find anyone here."

Why?

The Holy Ancestor looked at Ning Qi with some confusion.

Such a wonderful place, didn't he plan to cultivate here?

"You should do it yourself. Just look at that courtyard in front; do you think anyone other than us could get in?"

Ning Qi raised his hand and pointed to the courtyard outside the attic door, maintaining his smile throughout.

The Holy Ancestor looked towards the door in the direction Ning Qi was pointing and instantly understood.

With the power of the mountain-protecting Formation and the pressure of the Chaos Stone, ordinary cultivators would have no chance of even getting close to the Mountain Gate, let alone entering the backyard.

Even those with some strength would likely have their bones crushed the moment they stepped into the courtyard.

Why didn't I think of that just now?

"You're right, I didn't think it through."

"This pressure is indeed not something an ordinary person can withstand."

After figuring it out, the Holy Lord gave an awkward smile.

"Yes! That's right."

Wei Xian nodded and said, "Let's clean it ourselves."

"This place will definitely be a good place for our cultivation in the future, so we must tidy it up."

"Doing it yourself is a good idea."

The Holy Ancestor, full of enthusiasm, said, "Let's get started!"

"Good."

The two then decided to split up and act separately.

Ning Qi watched them get busy and glanced upstairs.

This attic has three floors; the first floor is just a place to put memorial tablets, so it's obviously not worth much anymore.

The secret might be hidden upstairs.

He was very curious.

Who exactly owns this attic?

Crafting a training ground with Chaos Stones?

With that thought in mind, I didn't hesitate any longer and headed up to the second floor.

Soon, we arrived at the second floor.

The layout of the second floor is similar to that of the first floor, also consisting of an empty hall.

There were also a few more windows.

There's nothing else.

Ning Qi looked into the corner.

An iron box was found.

This iron box is three feet long and about half a foot high.

"It's actually made from refined iron smelted from Chaos Stone."

"That's too extravagant."

Ning Qi could tell at a glance what the box was made of.

They've even used Chaos Refined Iron; what treasures are hidden inside?

He walked up to the box, carefully examined it, and squatted down without touching it.

Having learned his lesson from the previous two experiences, he has become wiser.

The owner of this place must have been a cunning person, otherwise they wouldn't have set up traps and Restriction everywhere.

Ning Qi channeled a burst of Immortal Power and shot it toward the box.

"When."

A metallic clanging sound rang out, and a wave of resistance suddenly erupted from the iron box.

His attack was deflected directly.

Ning Qi couldn't help but smile, "There's definitely something fishy going on."

The moment the box was opened, an aura of destruction surged forth.

Ning Qi looked into the box.

There was a sword inside.

It was completely black, so it was placed inside.

The seemingly ordinary iron sword exudes a captivating aura.

Ning Qi condensed a single Divine Sense.

He glanced at the iron sword and was immediately struck by its power.

I instantly understood what was causing the fluctuation.

"Boundless Evil Qi!"

He murmured to himself, "I never imagined there would be a sword infused with Boundless Evil Qi inside."

Guided by his Immortal Power, these Boundless Evil Qi appeared and disappeared on the sword.

Every time he tries to get closer, it fluctuates again.

"A sword imbued with Boundless Evil Qi! Isn't this tailor-made for me?"

Ning Qi, however, showed a look of joy as he looked at the sword with a smile.

"We're all packed up. What did we find up there?"

Just then, the voice of the Holy Ancestor came from downstairs.

Before long, he and Wei Xian went up to the second floor.

"Such a powerful evil!"

Sensing the Evil Qi emanating from the longsword, the Holy Lord exclaimed, "Isn't this a weapon forged from Chaos Iron? What a treasure!"

"But why does it feel so eerie?"

"There is Boundless Evil Qi inside."

"This sword is probably not something..."

When Wei Xian arrived, he also looked at the sword, but seeing Ning Qi's pleased expression, he swallowed the words he was about to say.

Ning Qi slowly stood up and took the iron sword out of the box.

Feeling the chill emanating from the sword.

"That's right."

Ning Qi smiled and nodded, saying frankly, "This sword does indeed possess Boundless Evil Qi."

"You should move a little further away."

Upon hearing this, both the Holy Ancestor and Wei Xian instinctively took two steps back.

"A sword forged from chaotic refined iron, infused with Boundless Evil Qi!"

Wei Xian frowned, staring at the sword in Ning Qi's hand.

He murmured.

"This was made just for me."

"Perfectly complements my Immortal-Demon Power."

Ning Qi brandished the longsword in his hand, a smile appearing on his face, "I didn't expect that Mount Buzhou, which was once a teleportation site, would still have something like this hidden inside."

"Then I wonder what else is upstairs."

Wei Xian immediately became interested and wanted to go up and see what was going on.

"Let's go together."

The Holy Lord was also interested.

"Okay, let's go."

Ning Qi put the sword away, not bothering to examine it closely for the time being.

Instead, he followed the two people upstairs.

Once upstairs, you'll see two wooden bookshelves on this floor.

Unfortunately, there's nothing left on it.

Obviously, someone took it.

"This used to be where Ancient Books Cultivation Method were kept."

Ning Qi glanced around and couldn't help but show a regretful expression. "Alright, that's all for now."

"We've also gained something. Next, I'll study this Formation to see how it works."

"With this Formation, I think we'll find it very useful."

"Oh? You want to study this Formation?"

Upon hearing this, the Holy Lord's expression turned solemn. "You saw it yourself on the martial arts arena; let alone studying it, we'd have a hard time even getting up there."

"That's good, but can't I conduct my research here yet?"

As Ning Qi spoke, he opened the window and looked down.

The two of them also came over and looked down.

From here, you can clearly see every corner of the training ground.

The Formation mentioned above can all be clearly seen.

"Alright, you can continue exploring with them now."

"Leave this to me."

Ning Qi simply sat on the windowsill and looked down.

"Alright, we'll be going now."

"Then be careful."

After they agreed, the two of them went downstairs.

After all, there's nothing left here.

Ning Qi sat by the window and continued looking down, soon seeing the two people leave.

They started supporting each other again, shakily making their way out of the yard.

For a moment, Ning Qi was the only one left there.

Ning Qi sat alone on the third-floor window, looking at the Formation patterns on the martial arts stage below.

The training ground was paved with chaotic stone, which itself exuded a powerful aura.

How does this Formation work?

Ning Qi read it carefully.

They carefully observed the fluctuations of the Formation on the Chaos Stone.

We want to find a pattern in it.

However, the more he looked at it, the more complicated it seemed, and for a moment he didn't know where to begin.

"Judging from this, it seems like it won't work."

Ning Qi pondered for a moment, then suddenly stood up.

Since this Formation can induce spatial pressure, let's try attacking it.

To stimulate it.

Ning Qi Qi's immortal and Demonic Power Immortal Power instantly began to circulate.

It transformed into a wisp of gray energy.

It shot towards the Formation on the training platform below.

"Call!"

A surge of Immortal-Demon Power shot down, striking the Formation patterns on the martial arts arena.

"Buzz!"

The training ground shook violently.

The previously blurry Formation patterns suddenly lit up.

A powerful spatial pressure suddenly erupted.

Even the attic shook.

Looking again, a visible ripple, like a water curtain, flashed across the martial arts stage.

Ning Qi simply broke a piece of wood off the window frame and threw it up.

"Whoosh!"

The wooden block exploded upon reaching the training platform.

It turned to dust in an instant.

Clearly, it was completely annihilated by this immense pressure.

"It really worked!"

Ning Qi clearly saw it the instant he launched his attack.

Especially the moment the wooden block falls.

The patterns at the point of impact suddenly appeared.

He saw all the countless flowing patterns and the mysterious changing trajectories.

During this process, Ning Qi detected the patterns of the Formation.

"Okay! Let's do it again!"

Ning Qi no longer held back, and streams of Immortal-Demon Power began to fall continuously.

"Buzz!"

"Boom!"

Each attack caused the patterns on the Formation to flicker.

The trajectory on the chaotic stone pressure reappeared time and again under the stimulation of Ning Qi's Immortal-Demon Power.

Ning Qi's Divine Sense kept scanning.

I memorized every single lit pattern, unwilling to slack off in the slightest.

After an unknown amount of time, Ning Qi's continuous depletion of Immortal-Demon Power left him feeling exhausted.

However, he became increasingly excited because those scattered patterns were forming the prototype of an Formation in his mind.

"Call?"

Ning Qi stopped.

Looking at the martial arts stage, after his repeated attacks, the Formation began to dim.

However, he had already sketched out the Formation in his mind.

"This is..."

Ning Qi muttered to himself, then said, "A Tai Chi symbol?"

He closed his eyes and continued to sense.

Above the Chaos Stone, the Yin and Yang poles rotate in opposite directions.

"Besides."

Ning Qi looked at the Chaos Stone and then asked, "Are these Water Runes?"

Gradually, I discovered that within the flow of the Tai Chi Yin-Yang symbol, there were patterns resembling water waves.

The Water Runes ripples overlapped and intertwined.

The spatial pressure generated by the Tai Chi pattern is amplified infinitely, and this pressure is further amplified through the refraction of Water Runes.

In this way, the space here is enhanced by gravity.

"This Water Runes pattern is the most important part; without it, this Formation alone is useless."

In other words, they complement each other.

Ning Qi frowned again. "Moreover, these Water Runes contain Dao Resonance, which are similar to my Great Dao Talisman Array Fruit."

"If one can comprehend this, this Formation will be a piece of cake."

"It might even allow my Dao Fruit to break through a bit more."

"The Tai Chi symbol is on the outside, while the Water Runes are on the inside! What a grand design; it's impossible to notice without close inspection."

At this moment, Ning Qi had memorized the complete Formation diagram in his mind.

"Although I don't fully understand the principles behind it yet, I'll find out once I try."

Ning Qi jumped down from the windowsill and found an open space after returning to the attic.

"Now, it's time to try and replicate it!"

Ning Qi waved his hand, and a trace of Immortal-Demon Power left a mark on the ground.

"Let's start with this Tai Chi symbol."

He recalled the outline of the Formation he had just seen, and controlled the Immortal-Demon Power to trace it bit by bit on the ground.

However, the seemingly simple Tai Chi pattern, when depicted according to the flow of the Formation, turns out to be quite complex.

My first attempt at drawing failed after only a few breaths.

"Wrong."

Ning Qi shook his head and wiped it away with a wave of his hand.

The second time, he adjusted the intensity and angle of the depiction.

However, halfway through the drawing, something still felt off.

The rotation pattern within that Formation remained unpredictable.

"Still not right..."

Ning Qi waved his hand again.

Then, once, twice, three times, until finally he didn't know how many times he had tried.

Various Tai Chi patterns were left on the ground.

At this moment, he was completely immersed in the world of drawing Tai Chi patterns.

After an unknown amount of time, when Ning Qi drew the Tai Chi pattern again, the image suddenly began to fluctuate.

The charm within began to emerge.

This is interesting!

Ning Qi looked at the Tai Chi pattern on the ground and couldn't help but smile, "After so long, it's finally taken shape."

He made a slight adjustment and began to imitate Water Runes within the Tai Chi symbol.

Another hour passed, and he successfully drew a rough Formation pattern.

He looked outside and felt it was already pretty good.

"It's done!"

Ning Qi clapped his hands, still somewhat dissatisfied. "At least we've replicated it. Let's try again."
