Immortal Martial Saint, something's wrong with my entry.

"Okay, then I'll explain the specific execution process for this mission."

Luo Jingshan looked at the group of team members in front of him and began to explain his plan.

"This mission is both urgent and not urgent. If that monkey demon hadn't self-destructed, we might have already completed our mission."

As he spoke, Luo Jingshan felt a little regretful that Monkey Three had self-destructed too quickly; otherwise, if his head had been cut off, he could have obtained some information.

"It would be best to capture a True Spirit Realm demon beast alive. If that's not possible, take its head back and hand it over to the intelligence team."

Seeing the solemn expressions on the faces of his team members, Luo Jingshan could roughly guess that, apart from Li Youan and Dongfang Jinghong, they had all fought against True Spirit Realm monsters to some extent in previous missions.

Not to mention, if it weren't for Dongfang Jinghong's shield magic weapon yesterday, there would have been several other people here besides Luo Jingshan who were unharmed.

Although everyone has their own means of survival, survival does not mean being unharmed. Getting injured in the Forest of Ten Thousand Demons would be extremely dangerous.

Seeing that the team's morale was starting to wane, Luo Jingshan continued.

"Of course, our first goal is to kill the monster and bring its head back. If there is a real opportunity, then we can talk about capturing it alive."

Hearing Luo Jingshan's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Monkey Three's self-destruction had been too shocking for them.

True Spirit Realm demonic beasts, if they cannot be killed or sealed immediately, will mostly choose to self-destruct, so only a fool would do such a suicide mission of capturing them alive.

Luo Jingshan then mentioned some things that needed attention, and then told everyone to rest so they could be in good shape for tomorrow's mission.

Compared to traveling, the biggest advantage of this outpost is that it does not require personnel to be on guard, as each outpost has its own set of guard formations.

When Li Youan set off, Wei Zifei taught him how to check if the formation was working properly and how to repair any minor problems.

This is also a major reason why the 13th squad was able to accept Li Youan so quickly. In the past, when they came here, they would at most activate the formation, but no one would check.

Now that they have Li Youan, a formation master, not to mention that Li Youan has already demonstrated his strength in the previous battles, especially his talent in formations, the members of the thirteenth squad are even more at ease after activating the formation.

Led by Luo Jingshan, Li Youan and he arrived at the innermost part of the outpost. Standing in front of a wall, Luo Jingshan waved his right hand and released a burst of energy.

After being struck by the energy, the wall in front of them remained unchanged. However, after a few breaths, magic seals appeared on the wall, forming a complex array.

Looking at the formation in front of him, Li Youan recalled his master's teachings and began to change the position of his hands simultaneously.

One by one, hand seals flew out from between his hands and disappeared into the array on the wall. After dozens of hand seals, Li Youan made a hand gesture, pointed to the array on the wall, and then turned his wrist, causing the array on the wall to rotate.

After that, the rotating array on the wall did not stop as Li Youan's wrist moved, but stopped as well.

Seeing the formation change rapidly, Luo Jingshan and Li Youan exchanged a glance and nodded. Li Youan then continued operating the formation.

At that time, Wei Zifei told Li Youan that there were two ways to break the formation. The second method required the captain's approval, which was exactly what Li Youan had just asked Luo Jingshan.

Having received authorization, Li Youan began to rapidly change his hands, with more and more hand seals disappearing into the wall. As the number of hand seals increased, the formation on the wall changed faster and faster, until the last hand seal disappeared into the formation on the wall.

Luo Youan couldn't discern the formation's trajectory; all that remained on the wall were circles left by its rapid rotation.

In fact, not much time had passed between Luo Jingshan activating the formation and Li Youan finishing, yet the innermost part of the outpost had already undergone a major transformation.

A wall appeared behind Luo Jingshan and Li An, blocking the path they had just taken, and the wall in front of them slowly disappeared.

Yes, it doesn't open to the left or right, nor does it open up or down; it truly disappears into thin air.

Luo Jingshan shielded Li Youan behind him and slowly walked forward until they reached the inner room, where he was sure there was no danger.

As soon as the two stood still, a red light appeared around them, scanning them from head to toe. At the same time, both of their terminals received a message.

[This formation has undergone routine inspection and is safe and intact. —Wei Zifei (Time***)]

"Master."

Looking at the signature at the end, Li Youan was somewhat surprised. No wonder his master had explained the situation at the front line so clearly when he introduced it to him.

"Now you know how important your master is, right?"

Luo Jingshan naturally heard Li Youan's voice and looked at Li Youan.

Seeing Li Youan nod, Luo Jingshan continued speaking.

"Your master is not only the head of the Zhentang Hall of the Northern Frontier War Academy, but he is also responsible for the deployment, repair and inspection of all formations in the area under the jurisdiction of Outpost No. 1."

"Of course, your master couldn't possibly manage all those formations by himself. There are also many of your senior brothers and sisters, which is why you haven't been able to see them at the front-line base."

"If you stayed at Outpost No. 1 a few more days, you might run into one of your senior brothers. Alright, start checking the formation now, I can't chat with you any longer."

Li Youan had heard about his master and fellow disciples from many people, but he had not met any other fellow disciples besides his master. Li Youan became more and more curious.

While thinking, Li Youan sat in the center of the room, closed his eyes, made a hand seal, and began to sense the array in the room according to his master's teachings. After confirming that there was no problem with the array, Li Youan activated the array to conduct a further check.

Li Youan made a few more hand seals and cast a magic seal into the formation. Using this magic seal, Li Youan checked whether the formation was operating normally.

"This is similar to the Gathering Yuan Array, but it is a higher-level Gathering Yuan Array. It is used as the core of the array for energy supply. Around the Gathering Yuan Array, there are three Eight Gates Golden Lock Arrays and three Heavenly Hearing and Earthly Seeing Arrays distributed at equal intervals, which eventually form a huge combined array, the Six Spirits Trapping and Killing Array."

Although the Six Spirits Trapping and Killing Formation is extremely simple in structure, consisting of only seven small formations, the way they are connected and formed is very ingenious.

Li Youan felt that he had learned a lot from this formation, especially after yesterday's battle with Monkey Three and Monkey Two, in which he improved and optimized the quicksand formation. After comparing it with the formation, Li Youan had new ideas about the quicksand formation.

But Li An did not forget his main purpose for coming here. He calmed down and began to check the operation of the formation. After checking the operation of the formation from beginning to end and making simple repairs to two minor flaws, Li An got up and left the room with Luo Jingshan.

Li Youan can now activate or deactivate the Six Spirits Trapping and Killing Array at any time within a 30-mile radius of the outpost. Moreover, due to the existence of the high-level Gathering Yuan Array, Li Youan does not need to consider the Yuan Qi required to operate the array.

Back in his own little room, Li Youan sat cross-legged on the bed and began his daily practice, which he could now do without needing to sleep at all.

While using his own blood and qi to cleanse the [Seed of Immortality], Li Youan also studied the formation. Li Youan had just figured out that he would no longer waste time cultivating his vital energy. He had a cultivation card, and he only needed to use it at the appropriate time. He had to use his limited time to do things that the panel could not do.

For example, what Li Youan is doing now is comprehending the formation.

"This quicksand formation needs some modifications. This hand seal could be..."
