The Lineage's Opinions, Second Aunt's Request

With the conclusion of the legal discussion, the Kong Household's "promotion celebration banquet" to become a "Seventh-Grade True Spirit" Lineage also came to an end.

Some of the "True Spirit Lineage" cultivators who came to congratulate the county began to leave Peacock County one after another. However, quite a few "True Spirit Lineage" cultivators also stayed behind. Some bought some shops in "Peacock County Seat", while others stayed to discuss with the Kong Household matters such as expanding trade routes and establishing trade relations. In short, they all planned to increase their contact and transactions with the Kong Household.

However, these business dealings and other trivial matters are naturally handled by the clan members specifically responsible for these affairs, so Kong Wenxuan doesn't need to waste his time dealing with them.

He then invited the clan leader, the second elder, his eldest uncle, his second aunt, and others, and told them about the Bi Household's plan to set up the "Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array" throughout the county. He also gave them Jade Slip containing details of the "array" to review.

He also told them that he had agreed to the Bi Household's request.

The clan leader took the Jade Slip first and looked at its contents. However, he didn't know much about array formations, so he couldn't understand anything from the details of the "grand array" recorded in the Jade Slip. Therefore, he just glanced at it and handed it to the second elder, Kong Changlan, who was standing to the side. She and her second aunt Kong Yujin, were the clan members who had the most knowledge of array formations, so it was more appropriate for them to examine and study it.

At the same time, he nodded to Kong Wenxuan and said, "Wenxuan, you were right to agree to set up the ' Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array.' Although I didn't participate in the ' Qinggeng Commandery ' battle, I learned a lot of information afterward and am very clear about the crucial role the ' Ten Thousand Trees Boundless Origin-Securing Grand Formation ' played in the ' Qinggeng Commandery ' battle."

"Given the current situation, the Demon Race has colluded with martial artists from the ' True Martial World ' to invade. Although the enemies who attacked our Lineage's ' Peacock Secret Realm ' and the enemies who attacked ' Eastern Forest Great Marsh ' in Bifang Commandery were all killed, the invading martial artists from the ' True Martial World Realm' were not able to seize the ' Origin Fragment ' of our Bifang Commandery."

"However, whether it was the enemy that invaded our Kong Household's ' Peacock Secret Realm ' or the enemy that invaded ' Eastern Forest Great Marsh ' before, they were only small groups of enemies, far from being comparable to the large forces of Demon Race and martial arts cultivators that attacked ' Qinggeng Commandery ' before."

"Even if our Kong Household manages to defend ' Peacock County ' and prevents the enemy from seizing the ' Origin Fragment ' of ' Peacock County,' it will be useless if the enemy breaches other parts of ' Bifang Commandery ' and seizes the ' Origin Fragment.'"

"Our Kong Household will also be implicated, rejected by the Heaven and Earth Origin this ' True Spirit Realm,' and our fortune will decline drastically. From now on, let alone continuing to advance, it will be good enough if we don't decline further."

Therefore, it's best to set up such a "Origin-Securing Grand Formation" as soon as possible.

Kong Wenxuan nodded slightly as he listened to the clan leader's words.

This was also a key reason why he agreed to the Bi Household's opinion and to set up the "Origin-Securing Grand Formation".

If the invasions of the Demon Race in the previous ten years or so, in collusion with the martial artists of the "True Martial World," were still reckless invasions without a clear understanding of the situation in the various counties and prefectures of the "True Spirit Realm," then the situation was that small groups invaded weakly defended places like "Bifang Commandery," while large groups invaded strongly defended places like "Qinggeng Commandery."

So now, after more than ten years of fighting and killing, these invading martial artists from the "True Martial World" have probably already figured out the general situation in various counties and prefectures of the "True Spirit Realm".

Therefore, if the enemy launches another large-scale invasion next time, they will definitely avoid strong defenses like "Qinggeng Commandery" and instead choose weak defenses like "Bifang Commandery" for their invasion.

If, at that time, a grand formation similar to the "Ten Thousand Trees Boundless Origin-Securing Grand Formation" is not set up in "Bifang Commandery" to suppress and protect the "Origin Fragment" of the county, then in the end, it will be "True Spirit Lineage" like the Kong Household who suffer, even if they manage to defend "Peacock County".

Kong Wenxuan believed that this was also a major reason why the Bi Household was in such a hurry to set up the "Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array," and not just for cultivating the "Nirvana Spirit Fire."

After all, the Bi Household is the ruler of Bifang Commandery. If the "Origin Fragment" of "Bifang Commandery" is damaged and seized by invading martial cultivators, then while the Kong Household will certainly suffer misfortune, the Bi Household will definitely suffer the greatest and most numerous losses and bad luck.

At this moment, Second Elder Kong Changlan, Second Kong Yujin, and others had also read the "Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array" recorded in the "Jade Slip," and the two even discussed it for a while. Finally, the Second Elder looked at the group and said, "Yujin and I have discussed it, and this ' Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array ' should be fine. It still falls within the scope of the 'Five Elements' and does not exceed the scope of our Lineage's ' Five Elements True Scripture ' inheritance."

"In other words, our current cultivation level, strength, and array formation skills are still insufficient. Otherwise, we could set up this ' Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array ' ourselves, and it wouldn't be impossible for us to even integrate it into our Kong Household's ' Five Elements Grand Formation '."

Hearing this, Second Aunt Kong Yujin nodded and said, "In our opinion, this ' Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array ' is at least a Fifth Tier formation. However, according to what this ' Jade Slip ' says, the one set up in our Peacock County should only be a Fourth Tier sub-formation."

"Although this sub-array is still beyond our current level of array cultivation and mastery, with the experience of setting up the ' Five Elements Grand Formation ' before, we should be able to try to study and research this sub-array to see if we can master it thoroughly, or even incorporate it into the Lineage's ' Five Elements Grand Formation '."

Kong Wenxuan's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this. The words of the Second Elder and Second Aunt had indeed reminded him that although the "Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array" seemed powerful, it ultimately belonged to the category of the "Five Elements." As long as the Kong Household continued to grow and advance, and the clan's cultivation and mastery of the Five Elements Dao and the Five Elements Formation Dao continued to improve, they might one day have the opportunity to turn the tables and control the "Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array."

This undoubtedly put his mind at ease.

At this moment, the second aunt continued, "Wenxuan, when the Bi Household sends people to set up the Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Grand Formation,' it would be best if we participated in the entire process, setting up this sub-array. This way, we can better understand and study this Myriad Fires All-Encompassing Origin-Fortifying Grand Array.'"

Upon hearing this, Kong Wenxuan nodded immediately and said, "Of course, this was agreed upon by the Bi Household. We will need to trouble Second Elder and Second Aunt to lead the Lineage's array masters to participate throughout the process."

Upon hearing this, the two elders immediately showed delight, smiling and saying, "No trouble at all! No trouble at all! This will greatly benefit our cultivation, and besides, it's something the Lineage needs."
