Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.
Chapter 230: The Master's Order
Chapter 230: The Master's Order
Deacon Ma laughed when he heard this, took off a storage bag from his waist, put it on the table, and said, "Brother Chen, please take a look. This is the high-level spirit formation."
Chen Yuan raised his hand and took the storage bag into his hand. He probed his spiritual sense into it. The surface of the storage bag flashed with light, and a formation plate and twenty-four formation flags appeared out of thin air in front of him.
The array plate is about half a foot in size, bright yellow in color, and engraved with many lines that are intertwined together. The pattern is quite complicated, but far inferior to the ancient teleportation array. There are twelve grooves around the array plate.
The formation flag is the same color as the formation plate, about one foot high, and has heavy mountain patterns painted on the triangular flag.
Deacon Ma introduced enthusiastically: "This high-level spirit formation is called the Meteorite Formation. When it is activated, huge rocks will fall from the sky and the earth will shake. It is an extremely powerful killing spirit formation. At least seven earth-attributed medium-grade spirit stones are needed to activate the formation, but the power is only equivalent to that of a mid-level spirit formation."
"We must put in twelve earth-attributed mid-grade spirit stones to unleash the full power of the Meteorite Array. By then, we won't be afraid even if we face a cultivator in the early Jindan stage..."
Chen Yuan probed his consciousness into the array plate and array flags, and took a quick look to confirm that the array plate and array flags were intact. He asked, "How is the defensive capability of this array?"
Deacon Ma smiled and said, "Although the Meteoric Formation is a killing spirit formation, the defensive ability of the Earth Spirit Formation is the best among all formations. After fully activating this formation, even if a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan takes action, it will take at least an hour to destroy the formation flag."
Chen Yuan nodded and stroked his storage bag. Thousands of colorful spirit stones appeared out of thin air on the table, filling the table and almost rolling down.
He put the formation plate and flag into the storage bag and said with a smile: "This is 1,100 pieces of medium-grade spirit stones. Please take a look, Brother Ma."
Deacon Ma's eyes lit up as he stared at the spirit stone on the table. He scanned it carefully with his consciousness several times and laughed, "Junior Brother Chen is really generous!"
He raised his sleeves and collected all the spirit stones on the table. Huang Anhe, who was standing beside him, lowered his head and hid the surprise and admiration in his eyes.
After Deacon Ma put away the spirit stone, Chen Yuan glanced at Huang Anhe and said, "The high-level spirit formation is too powerful. I believe what Senior Brother Ma said, so I won't verify it."
Deacon Ma had an unstoppable smile on his face: "Don't worry, Junior Brother Chen, this matter involves a lot of things, and I dare not say a single word of falsehood."
Huang Anhe put down the teacup in his hand and said seriously, "If the effect of the Meteoric Star Array is different from what Senior Brother Ma said, Junior Brother Chen can come to Huang."
The one hundred mid-grade spirit stones were not received for nothing. As a middleman, he had to ensure the smooth transaction and would never allow Deacon Ma to pass off inferior goods as good ones or to deceive others with false statements.
After both of them made promises, Chen Yuan felt completely relieved.
Seeing that the deal was done, Deacon Ma bowed to Chen Yuan and Huang Anhe and said with a smile, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
Chen Yuan said, "Brother Ma, please wait a moment. I have something else that I need your help with."
Deacon Ma was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Brother Chen, please speak."
After he got the spirit stone, he was eager to go home, but since Chen Yuan had spoken, he could only suppress his urgency.
Huang Anhe also showed curiosity on his face and looked over.
Chen Yuan said, "In addition to the high-level spirit formations, I also want to buy two mid-level spirit formations, but I don't have enough merit. Can Senior Brother Ma make some concessions?"
Deacon Ma laughed and said, "This is a simple matter. I have four mid-level spirit formations in my hand. Junior Brother Chen can choose any one of them. All of them can be traded with spirit stones, but the merits must be 20% higher than the marked merits."
"If Junior Brother Chen wants a certain mid-level spiritual formation, you can reserve it in advance, but the price will be 20% higher, and you will have to wait for half a year."
Chen Yuan asked: "What are the effects of these four spiritual formations?"
Deacon Ma said: "These four spiritual formations are divided into two types. One is the wood spiritual formation 'Wooden Fortress Formation', which can resist three attacks from a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan. The fire spiritual formation 'Earth Fire Formation' contains a trace of earth fire essence, which can form a sea of fire and kill a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building."
Chen Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I want two wooden fortification arrays."
The white ape can manipulate strange white flames, so the Earth Fire Array may have no effect on it. Although the Wooden Fort Array may be restrained by the white flames, it is ultimately a mid-level spiritual array and should be able to play some role.
Deacon Ma touched his storage bag, and two formation plates and twenty-four formation flags appeared on the table out of thin air. He smiled and said, "One wooden formation requires 130 medium-grade spirit stones, but Junior Brother Chen has already bought a high-level spirit formation, so these two formations only require 250 spirit stones."
Chen Yuan nodded, took out two hundred and fifty medium-grade spirit stones and handed them to Deacon Ma.
After the payment and goods were settled, Deacon Ma stood up to say goodbye, and Chen Yuan and Huang Anhe escorted him out of the cave.
After Deacon Ma rode away from Baishi Peak, Huang Anhe bowed to Chen Yuan and said calmly, "Brother Chen, you have already achieved your wish. There are still some trivial matters to be dealt with in the Refining Pavilion. I will not keep you as a guest."
He had no friendship with Chen Yuan and they had some grudges in the past. He only agreed to be the middleman in exchange for one hundred medium-grade spirit stones. Now that the matter was settled, he didn't want to have any more contact with Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan said, "Brother Huang, wait a minute. I have something else to discuss with you."
Huang Anhe frowned slightly, but did not refuse. He just turned and walked into the cave.
Chen Yuan followed Huang Anhe, walked back into the cave, and sat down at the stone table.
He knew that Huang Anhe had no good feelings towards him, so he took out the remaining fifty middle-grade spirit stones and placed them on the table: "Please accept these spirit stones, Senior Brother Huang."
Huang Anhe's expression looked much better. He scanned with his spiritual sense and confirmed the number of spirit stones. Then he raised his sleeves and put the spirit stones into his storage bag.
Chen Yuan then said, "The demonic cultivators in Qi are becoming increasingly rampant. I want to buy two talismans as a means of saving my life. Does the weapon refining pavilion have any talismans in stock?"
The monks of Lingyun Sect can use their good deeds to exchange spiritual weapons and magical weapons from the Weapon Refining Pavilion, but they cannot exchange them for talismans or magic weapons.
However, the top-grade spiritual weapon is useless against the white ape, Lingyun Market has become much more depressed, and underground trade fairs have almost disappeared. Chen Yuan has no way to buy talismans, so he can only target Huang Anhe.
Huang Anhe shook his head and said, "Brother Chen also knows that the talisman is condensed by the power of the magic weapon extracted by the Jindan Zhenren, which has caused considerable damage to the origin of the magic weapon."
"Now that the demon cultivators are invading, how could our sect's Jindan elders damage the origin of the magic weapon just to make a talisman?"
Chen Yuan frowned slightly: "So, there is not even a single talisman in the weapon refining pavilion?"
Huang Anhe said: "Yes, there has never been any talisman in the Refining Pavilion, but if Junior Brother Chen is in urgent need of a talisman, I do have a way..."
Having said this, he suddenly closed his mouth, picked up the teacup and sipped slowly.
Chen Yuan understood and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Huang. I will not let you work in vain. After the task is completed, I will give you ten middle-grade spirit stones as a reward. How do you think?"
Huang Anhe remained silent, just lowered his head to sip his tea. Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Twenty pieces. Since there are no talismans in the Refining Pavilion, Senior Brother Huang should just be a middleman, acting as a matchmaker. Twenty pieces of medium-grade spirit stones are already a lot."
Huang Anhe finally put down the teacup in his hand and said slowly: "An uncle of the Huang clan broke through the bottleneck of the late stage not long ago and wanted to buy a top-grade spiritual weapon. However, he used a lot of spiritual stones and elixirs to break through the bottleneck, and his money is tight."
"Fortunately, he got a talisman in his early years and wanted to exchange it for a top-grade spiritual weapon. If Junior Brother Chen is interested, I can facilitate the deal for him."
Chen Yuan asked: "What type of talisman is this? How much power does it contain?"
Huang Anhe explained: "It is used for killing and is called 'Bi Bo Mace'. My uncle is old and has a high position. He has been in charge of the clan."
"It's just that the demonic plague has become increasingly serious in recent years, and there have been casualties among Huang's clan, so I need to ask my uncle for help. Therefore, this Jade Wave Mace Talisman has only been used once, and it can be used twice, or for a quarter of an hour."
Chen Yuan was delighted when he heard this. This talisman could still be used for a quarter of an hour and could be of great use.
He stroked his storage bag, took out the only remaining top-grade spiritual weapon, the Bone-piercing Nail, and handed it to Huang Anhe: "This Bone-piercing Nail is also top-grade among the top-grade spiritual weapons. It has the effect of destroying spiritual weapons and suppressing souls. It should be enough to exchange for the 'Bi Bo Mace' talisman."
Huang Anhe raised his hand to catch the bone-penetrating nail, and injected a trace of spiritual consciousness into it without touching Chen Yuan's spiritual consciousness imprint. He carefully checked it and nodded, "Yes, the refining method of this bone-penetrating nail is quite exquisite, and it should satisfy my uncle."
He withdrew his consciousness and returned the bone-piercing nail to Chen Yuan: "Huang will rush back to the clan tomorrow and tell the clan uncle about this matter. If he agrees to this, I will bring the talisman back and complete the transaction with Junior Brother Chen."
Chen Yuan did not take it, but raised his hand and waved it to Huang Anhe: "Brother Huang, you can take this bone-penetrating nail back to the clan. If it fails, you can return it to Chen."
Huang Anhe raised his hand to catch the bone-piercing nail, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he nodded: "Okay, in three days, whether the matter is successful or not, Huang will come to visit."
However, he forgot that this transaction was different from Chen Yuan's purchase of a high-level spiritual array from Deacon Ma. There was nothing shameful about it, and Chen Yuan was not afraid that he would embezzle this top-grade spiritual weapon.
After the two men agreed on the matter, Chen Yuan stood up and said goodbye, returning to the cave residence on Yunyin Peak to wait for news from Huang Anhe.
……
Three days passed quickly. Chen Yuan was meditating when suddenly a deep bell sounded in his ears, waking him from his meditation.
Then another bell sound came, overlapping with the first bell sound, and then the third, the fourth... a total of seven bell sounds overlapped, deep and distant, directly transmitted into Chen Yuan's soul.
Chen Yuan frowned, and seven Xiyi bell sounds rang out in succession. All the foundation-building cultivators in the mountain gate must rush to Lingyun Peak within one hour. Those who violate the order will be severely punished.
He did not dare to delay, and immediately got up and left the house, riding on the light of escape, and flew towards Lingyun Peak.
Half an hour later, Chen Yuan arrived at the top of Lingyun Peak, landed on the edge of the square, and walked towards Lingyun Palace.
There were not many core disciples in the square. Most of them were fighting against the demon cultivators in the Demon-Slaying Desert. Some were stationed in the spirit stone mines in various places, or left the sect to complete sect missions. There were only a few left in the mountain gate.
An hour later, more than sixty foundation-building cultivators gathered in front of Lingyun Hall. Among them, there were only a dozen core disciples, and the rest were all deacon disciples. Even the aging old man Geng came here.
He stood alone in a place, hunched over, with no one paying any attention to him, his eyes wandering and his expression flustered.
The other deacons and disciples were similar. Yi Jin and Wang Ran stood beside Chen Yuan with panicked expressions.
The core disciples were in much better condition; they had experienced fighting and were calm. Their expressions were just more serious than usual, but they were not panicked.
Wang Ran whispered, "Seven Xiyi bells rang in succession, something must have happened in the Demon-Dangling Desert!"
There was a hint of fear in Yi Jin's words: "If something happened in the Demon-Slaying Desert, we only need to gather the core disciples. Why do we have to gather the deacon disciples as well?"
He was so flustered that he completely forgot that Chen Yuan was standing next to him. He had already offended him with his words.
But Chen Yuan was also preoccupied at the moment and had no time to take care of this matter.
Huang Anhe will send a reply today. Regardless of whether the deal is reached or not, he will go to the Huanyue Mountains.
If something really happened in the Demon-Slaying Desert, his plan would be ruined.
At this time, a figure walked out of Lingyun Hall. It was Ji Bin who had given Chen Yuan the Chilong Pendant.
He glanced around, his eyes lingered on Chen Yuan for a moment, then he looked away and said in a deep voice: "According to the order of the Sect Master, all the core disciples and deacon disciples of our sect will go to the Demon Desert tomorrow to participate in the decisive battle with the demon cultivators. There must be no mistakes, and violators will be severely punished!"
After saying this, he rode on a beam of light and flew away, leaving behind a group of foundation-building cultivators.
The square fell into deathly silence. Everyone's face looked extremely grim. They flew out in twos and threes on their flying lights.
Chen Yuan looked solemn as he flew away from Lingyun Peak with Yi Jin and Wang Ran, who both looked as pale as death.
Yi Jin murmured, "A decisive battle with the demon cultivators...even the deacons and disciples are going to join the battle. How badly has the situation deteriorated?"
Wang Ran's face was as gloomy as water. He had been in the Demon-Slaying Desert for two years and knew very well how ferocious the demon cultivators were. Now that he knew he also had to go into battle, he was in a very bad mood.
Chen Yuan's expression was also extremely solemn, but he was not considering the danger of a decisive battle with the demon cultivator. Instead, he was worried that if the six sects were defeated, they would lose the opportunity to hunt the white ape in the Fantasy Moon Mountains.
There are only one descendant of a true spirit in ten thousand. If he misses this opportunity, where else can he find a fourth-level demon beast with the blood of a true spirit?
The three of them were full of worries. After exchanging a few words, they separated halfway and returned to their respective caves.
As it was getting dark, Huang Anhe came to Chen Yuan's cave with a very ugly look on his face.
After asking, Chen Yuan found out that when he entered the mountain gate, he learned the master's order from the patrolling deacon disciple, and was naturally in a very bad mood.
If he had stayed in the tribe for two more days, perhaps he wouldn't have had to go to the Demon-Slaying Desert.
But it was too late to say anything now. Huang Anhe handed a blue talisman to Chen Yuan, took away twenty medium-grade spirit stones, and hurriedly left Yunyin Peak to make final preparations.
