The Heavenly Water World-Cleansing Formation in Myriad Demon Valley shimmered with deep blue light in the gathering dusk. Thirty-six Water Spirit Crystal Pillars pierced the joints of the Bone Altar, resonating with the Star-Illusion Maze Formation's pale silver dome and holding the valley's surging baleful energy firmly a thousand feet away.

[System notification: Fusion rate requirement met. Water-Magnetic Heart-Protecting Mirror condensation method (basic) unlocked. Capable of withstanding spiritual attacks at the deity transformation early stage.]

Han Li accepted the pill and swept his spiritual sense over the nexus diagram. Though the formation was complete, it needed the Pure Water Source Heart as a catalyst to continuously absorb water spiritual energy from heaven and earth before
