Once he calmed down, many things fell into place!
For instance, why had the old man set up that Nine Suns Formation a while ago?
He Pingsheng had not understood before.
But now, he had some suspicions.
The Nine Suns Formation could dispel sinister yin energy.
The old man had said so himself.
But that raised a question. The Great Void Divine Hall had stood there for hundreds of years. When had it ever harbored sinister yin energy?
Where was this sinister energy?
Why did it need dispelling?
So this was why!
Soul Seizure!
Soul Seizure was a sinister act. Without anything to contain it, yin energy would shoot straight out of the Great Void Divine Hall.
Then every disciple in the Great Void Sect would know the patriarch was using Soul Seizure!
How bad would that look?
But now, with the Nine Suns Formation in place, all the escaping yin energy would dissolve into nothing.
So that was what the Great Nine Yang Formation was for!
And another thing!
In the side hall on the left, the old man had prepared all sorts of pills, ranging from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm. Aside from the Transformation-Breaking Pill, he had everything.

And with my Five-Element Spiritual Root, cultivation required pills.
That was why he had prepared so many!
That undying old bastard!
Damn him!
He kept preaching benevolence and virtue, saying he would never use Soul Seizure on anyone or pass that horrifying Great Void
