Lin Changqing's eyes brimmed with cold fury, but he still held back from acting.
He had already passed through the immortal island's formation. It wasn't the mountain gate's grand formation, so it couldn't stop him—and it couldn't even detect him.
On the immortal island, only at its very center did he see a woman sitting cross-legged within the hub of a great formation. With her delicate hands, she guided countless streams of spiritual energy into the surrounding formation nodes, struggling to keep the formation running.
By now, the woman's face had gone deathly pale. Her magic power was nearly exhausted, and her body swayed unsteadily, yet she still bit her lip and refused to let go of the formation.
"Senior Brother Dingguang!"
"I want to cultivate and break through on my own, so there's no need to trouble you, Senior Brother!"
"This is the barrier around my immortal island. The Interception Sect's rules forbid fellow disciples from harming one another. If you force your way through my island's formation and our nine senior brothers and sisters find out, you'll surely be punished!"
Hearing their exchange, Lin Changqing frowned slightly.
Dingguang? There really was someone in the Interception Sect named Dingguang—Chang Er Ding Guang Xian!
He was one of the Seven Attendant Immortals, one of the seven immortals chosen by Tongtian to follow him in cultivation and serve at his side.
Aside from Lin Changqing and the other eight Personal Disciples, no one in the Interception Sect could match his status.
But Chang Er Ding Guang Xian would eventually betray the Interception Sect during the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation!
He took the very weapon Tongtian had planned to use for his last reversal and defected to the Western Sect, even becoming a Buddha in its ranks.
The Joyful Buddha!
