Time seemed to freeze at that moment.
He Pingsheng looked at the old man before him, the antique shelf, and the bottles and jars on it, momentarily dazed.
His long-held impressions and suspicions seemed to waver as well.
But three breaths later, he shook his head sharply.
Reality became reality again.
"This is the key to the left side hall!" The old man handed He Pingsheng a long, white Jade Token.
This Jade Token could control the surrounding formation, allowing him to enter the left side hall whenever he wished.
"Keep this Jade Slip safe!" The Grand Ancestor of the Great Void handed He Pingsheng a crimson Jade Slip as well. "There's a third-grade formation recorded in here. In a little while, I'm going to set up this third-grade Grand Array!"
"You'll set it up, and I'll assist you from the side!"
"Study it carefully and work through its workings in detail over the next few days. If there's anything you don't understand, you can come ask me!"
"Go!"
He Pingsheng took the Jade Slip and walked out of the Great Void Divine Hall.
Since he was inside the illusion formation himself, what he saw was entirely different from what could be seen outside.
To He Pingsheng's eyes, nothing here had changed.
After leaving the Great Void Divine Hall and returning to his own cultivation grounds on the right, He Pingsheng took out the crimson Jade Slip and extended his divine sense into it.
The old man was right. A Grand Array was recorded inside.
Its name was the Nine Suns Formation.
He read its introduction. This formation embodied the utmost hardness and purest yang. As for its purpose?
There was only one: it could dispel sinister yin energies!
Why set up something like this?
He Pingsheng was utterly baffled.
