Yang Zhen waved his hand, stuffing something into his mouth as he mumbled, "There's no rush. If we take it out now, there might be some Half-Step Great Saint nearby who could sense the aura of Emperor Treasure. That would be too dangerous."
Everyone felt a chill and nodded in agreement. Even that scoundrel, the Shameless Cat, stopped suggesting that Yang Zhen take it out, clearly knowing that this was not the right time to display it.
Gou Shengtian paced back and forth, his face showing anxiety, as if the Half-Step Great Saint was about to snatch his things.
The Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels and the Heavenly Venerable Shangwu exchanged a glance, their expressions both somewhat complicated.
The one with the highest cultivation level among them is Heavenly Venerable Shangwu, but even Heavenly Venerable Shangwu is no match for Half-Step Great Saint. In terms of overall strength, he is even inferior to Yang Zhen.
If someone with ulterior motives were to discover that the true Emperor Treasure was actually in the Shangyuan Sect, the Shangyuan Sect would probably be flattened by countless powerful figures in the next second.
"What should we do?" The Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels stared wide-eyed, bewildered, and said, "Having Emperor Treasure but not being able to produce it, isn't that incredibly frustrating?"
"Uncomfortable?" Gou Shengtian glared, shaking his head like a rattle-drum, and said, "Uncomfortable, uncomfortable, how could it be uncomfortable? Even if I never take it out for the rest of my life, I won't be uncomfortable. Or... how about I guard it?"
Yang Zhen chuckled and said, "We will definitely need the Grand Elder to guard it, but now is not the time. We can take it out after I have set up the formation."
"What kind of formation are you going to set up?" The First Elder's expression changed, and he said, "You can't be careless. With Half-Step Great Saint nearby, what kind of formation can protect the Emperor Treasure? If we alert them, even if we all die, we still won't be able to protect the Shangyuan Sect."
Yang Zhen grinned and said, "Don't worry, once this formation is set up, one or two Half-Step Great Saint won't be able to break it. Besides, those Half-Step Great Saint have just been born and have so many things to do. Who would be so bored as to come and mess around with a small, insignificant sect trying to break the formation?"
A nobody sect in the middle of nowhere!
Gou Shengtian gave a wry smile and sighed, "It's good that you know what's going on, but I really can't think of any formation that can withstand Half-Step Great Saint."
At this point, Gou Shengtian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "You mean...?"
" Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array!"
The Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels and the Heavenly Venerable Shangwu were both shaken, exchanged a glance, and simultaneously uttered the name.
Hua Youyue's face lit up with curiosity as she asked, "Have you truly mastered the Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array?"
Yang Zhen finished eating, wiped his mouth, nodded, and said, " The Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array is indeed a remarkable formation. It took me a lot of effort to comprehend it. I wonder if its power is as strong as the legends say."
Everyone stared at Yang Zhen in surprise, their faces filled with bewilderment.
Is there anything Yang Zhen can't do?
Gou Shengtian's face lit up with surprise as he quickly said, "I've heard the two seniors mention the Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array. It's said that this formation is perfectly formed by nature, created by heaven and earth. No one throughout history has been able to set it up completely. Even the Heavenly Spring Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array of the Great Spring Holy Land is just a simplified version?"
Yang Zhen was taken aback and said in surprise, "I didn't know that, but it's really hard to understand."
"Boy, the Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array is not only difficult to comprehend, but even the ancestors of the Great Spring Holy Land were unable to fully comprehend it, let alone set it up completely."
The Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels, unusually serious, stared at Yang Zhen and said, "The legendary Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array can condense Heavenly Spring. Cultivating within the formation is like being immersed in a spring of primordial energy, achieving twice the result with half the effort—no, ten or a hundred times the result with half the effort. Did you really comprehend this formation from the heavens and earth?"
Everyone knew that Yang Zhen had been taken to the underground cave by the Heavenly Spring Holy Lord, not to visit the Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array of the Great Spring Holy Land. Under these circumstances, not only everyone else, but even the people of the Great Spring Holy Land knew that Yang Zhen had no chance of successfully comprehending it.
Now that Yang Zhen is actually going to set up such a formation on the half of White Cloud Mountain Shangyuan Sect, how could everyone not be surprised?
Yang Zhen stood up, grinned mysteriously, looked around at everyone, and said, "Give me five days, and maybe I'll give you a surprise!"
Five days is but a fleeting moment in the Cultivation World cultivation.
Yang Zhen worked tirelessly for five days, leaving almost everyone exhausted to the point of collapsing on the ground, too tired to get up again, before finally clapping his hands and saying, "All done!"
alright?
Everyone hurriedly looked at the huge, altar-like object in front of Yang Zhen.
On the altar, countless patterns of heaven and earth exuded an astonishing aura. As the Heaven and Earth Inscriptions flowed, they seemed to radiate the might of the heavens, causing astonishment to flash in the eyes of the onlookers.
All Higher Vehicle celestial arrays do not require crystals to activate. Between the array's cores, the array can draw energy from the heavens and earth to maintain its operation.
Although the altar before them was the core of the formation, everyone sensed a vast power of heaven and earth emanating from it. Clearly, this altar was like a heart, crucial to the entire formation.
Gou Shengtian looked at Yang Zhen with a hesitant expression, and asked curiously, "What if such a large altar is destroyed here?"
Everyone looked at Yang Zhen with puzzled expressions. The altar in front of them was too obvious. Even if they couldn't get into White Cloud Mountain, the enemy had many ways to destroy it.
Yang Zhen snapped his fingers and said, "Once the formation is activated, if anyone can still find this altar, I'll do whatever they tell me to do."
"You said it yourself!"
The Shameless Cat's eyes lit up, and it rubbed its hands together, eager to try.
"Idiot!" the Flirtatious Chicken retorted mercilessly to the Shameless Cat.
The two started fighting again.
Yang Zhen took a deep breath and, amidst the curious gazes of everyone, activated the final arrangement using the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Rumble!
The entire White Cloud Mountain seemed to tremble, with towering waves of energy rushing towards them from all directions. Under the dense, boundless spiritual energy, everyone even felt as if they were about to suffocate.
"This... this spiritual energy is even more concentrated than that of the Great You Dynasty?" The Grand Elder's face flashed with shock as he exclaimed in disbelief.
Yang Zhen laughed and said, "This is nothing!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the world changed color, and an exceptionally thick celestial curtain descended from the sky. Under the terrifying might of heaven, it actually strengthened the Heavenly Spring Que Yang Array.
Buzz--!
A blazing sun rose into the sky, and terrifying fluctuations of vital energy surged forth.
A violent storm of primordial energy swept in, and the sky was transformed into another world. Streams of primordial energy, like springs, surged forth and instantly filled the entire White Cloud Mountain!
The blazing sun shines upon the world, and the heavenly spring gushes forth!
Sensing the changes in the world, the Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels Venerables grinned, while the Heavenly Venerable Shangwu's face flickered with an unpredictable expression. Suddenly, he said to Yang Zhen, "Boy, build me a residence on White Cloud Mountain."
"Oh my, you old codger, have you no shame?"
The Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels jumped three feet high, staring at the Heavenly Venerable Shangwu with a look of astonishment and shouted.
"What's it to you?" Heavenly Venerable Shangwu rolled his eyes at Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels.
Gou Shengtian was all smiles. With such a terrifying array of heaven and earth formations, how could the Shangyuan Sect not prosper?
Just as everyone was overjoyed, a deafening roar rang out, filled with pain and anger, causing everyone's expression to change drastically.
Yang Zhen looked hesitantly in the direction the voice came from, muttering to himself, "Damn, that voice sounds familiar."
"It's Chiding Dragon!"
Everyone gasped in surprise.
Yang Zhen remembered too, raised an eyebrow, and grinned, "That bastard, he ran away, but why did he end up here?"
