After Jiang Liu and Gongsun Haoyue returned to the palace, Murong Yin, Feng Yue, and the others were already waiting for them to return so they could have dinner together.
After dinner, Jiang Liu led Gongsun Haoyue and the others back to the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation.
Jiang Liu was exhausted after a long day, so he decided to go back to the secret realm to rest, which would help him recover faster.
Moreover, Master Flowing Cloud Matriarch and the others will also be coming to the secret realm tomorrow, so there's no need for them to travel back and forth.
The next day, early in the morning, Tian Ling and Gong Mo, who had been unable to sleep all night, went to find Flowing Cloud Matriarch and went to the Silent Valley together.
When the three arrived above the Silent Valley, Jiang Liu had already woken up from his meditation with Yang Huan.
Sensing the three people outside the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, Jiang Liu communicated with the Ruyi Celestial Palace Spirit and brought them all inside.
Gong Mo, Tian Ling, Flowing Cloud Matriarch Shangren were momentarily stunned, but upon closer inspection, they discovered that their surroundings had changed.
Flowing Cloud Matriarch was no longer surprised by this, while Gong Mo and Tian Ling carefully examined their surroundings, their eyes filled with curiosity.
"Sect Master, Elders, please have a seat!" Jiang Liu appeared in mid-air and addressed the three.
The plains had changed a lot; they were no longer as empty as before.
Casual tables and chairs have already been set up, and several rocky hills have been built in the distance. This area is being prepared to be transformed into a leisure space.
After all, the underwater palace was just too boring.
These were all made by Murong Yin, Feng Yue, and Gongsun Haoyue when they were bored, together with Cuier and Xiao He.
Gong Mo, Tian Ling, Flowing Cloud Matriarch sat down on the lounge chairs.
Just as they sat down, Gong Mo and Tian Ling, who were eager to ask questions, were about to start.
Suddenly, a sound came from the lake.
At this moment, Gongsun Haoyue, Murong Yin, Feng Yue, Cuier, Xiao He emerged from the bottom of the lake, carrying their breakfast in their hands.
It turned out they were planning to have breakfast here.
"You've come so early, haven't you had breakfast yet? Shall we have some together?" Gongsun Haoyue asked.
Looking at Gongsun Haoyue, who was acting like the mistress of the house, Flowing Cloud Matriarch nodded.
Gong Mo and Tian Ling, seemingly sensing something amiss, nodded hastily.
Murong Yin and Feng Yue also smiled and nodded at the three of them.
Afterwards, everyone finished their breakfast in silence.
After finishing their breakfast, Cuier and Xiao He put the food away.
Everyone then sat down together, Murong Yin took the initiative to brew tea.
"Actually, it's not that I don't want to teach you the formation, but this matter is of great importance and concerns your personal safety," Jiang Liu said, looking at Gong Mo and Tian Ling.
Upon hearing this, Gong Mo and Tian Ling both became tense.
Their desire to learn formations was also for the purpose of improving their forging skills.
Because they also know that their current forging skills have flaws.
The main reason for this defect is the lack of formation coordination.
Although they didn't know what had happened during the transmission of the forging technique that led to this situation.
However, there is no doubt that the forging techniques they have learned are now severely incomplete.
It's fair to say that even among current forging beginners, Jiang Liu's forging skills are far more complete than theirs.
Now that they heard Jiang Liu say this, they realized that this matter was far more complicated than it seemed.
"Don't be nervous. You can make a decision after I finish speaking. However, what I say today must not be told to anyone, lest it lead to your death."
Jiang Liu looked at Gong Mo and Tian Ling, who looked nervous, and offered some words of comfort.
Gong Mo and Tian Ling took a deep breath and assured Jiang Liu together, "We will definitely not tell anyone."
Jiang Liu nodded, and then began to explain slowly.
The story begins with Duan Hongyuan's preparation to withdraw from the world, and emphasizes Duan Hongyuan speculation that Heavenly Dao is targeting Saint Realm martial artists.
Even now, the Heavenly Dao is targeting high-level martial artists across the entire continent, primarily those at the Peak Grandmaster.
Upon hearing this, Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue, who were drinking tea nearby, were immediately taken aback.
They had always believed that they couldn't advance to the Saint Realm because they couldn't cultivate enough.
Unexpectedly, it was all because of the machinations of this Heavenly Dao.
But why was Jiang Liu able to advance to the Saint Grade?
They all thought of the name of the formation here: the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation.
Only then did they understand why Jiang Liu valued this place so much.
It turns out that it wasn't just for the abundant spiritual energy here, but more importantly, to cover the sky.
This Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation can block the will of Heavenly Dao from probing, which is why Jiang Liu was able to advance to the Saint Realm here.
However, even after they went out, they were still targeted by the Heavenly Dao.
Fortunately, Jiang Liu pulled through.
If it were them, both Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue shuddered at the thought.
Although they didn't know how Jiang Liu withstood the attack of the Heavenly Dao, they figured it must have been something extraordinary.
After all, no Saint Realm expert has appeared in the past thousand years, which shows the extent of the Heavenly Dao's attack.
When Murong Yin and Feng Yue heard Jiang Liu say this, their faces showed concern, and they stared intently at Jiang Liu.
They seemed afraid that Jiang Liu would suddenly disappear before their eyes.
After all, the Dao of Heavenly Dao is too Xu Wu and unfathomable.
They had never even heard of it before, but now it had become Jiang Liu's enemy.
Gong Mo and Tian Ling, on the other hand, didn't feel anything about the Heavenly Dao targeting martial artists and preventing them from advancing to the Saint Realm.
However, hearing that the reason the formation disappeared was due to the Heavenly Dao made them feel heartbroken.
If they learn formations, will they be unable to leave this secret realm space in the future?
After all, no one knows how Heavenly Dao caused the formation to be lost.
If it were just a matter of erasing their memories, that would be better.
What I fear most is that an accident might happen during cultivation, which could result in immediate death and the annihilation of one's cultivation.
If that's the case, what's the point of them learning this formation?
Thinking of this, the two of them immediately looked dejected.
There was no longer the ecstatic joy I felt when I first saw Jiang Liu's formation.
Looking at the various expressions on everyone's faces, Jiang Liu sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to pass on this array formation to you, but I'm afraid it will be more harmful than beneficial to you."
"Perhaps, it will be time to reveal the secrets of the formation after I have eliminated these hidden dangers."
After he finished speaking, Jiang Liu released his aura, which slowly calmed the panic in the hearts of these people.
Soon, under Jiang Liu's mental influence, these people temporarily put aside their worries and began to trust Jiang Liu.
After all, Jiang Liu has already created too many miracles in their eyes.
The main reason is that they are all inside the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation, and their moods are naturally somewhat affected by Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu is now deliberately trying to appease them, which naturally makes them trust Jiang Liu even more.
Seeing the expressions of the crowd gradually relax, Jiang Liu also smiled faintly.
Just now, he was testing whether his influence on other people's emotions was greater when he was inside the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation.
And indeed, that proved to be true.
