At the same time, a slightly transparent figure appeared above the spirit lake. He was dressed in a blue robe and looked gentle and refined, but the words he spoke were extremely arrogant.

"Senior, my name is Chen Qingmo. To be honest, I am ignorant and do not know anything about your deeds." Chen Qingmo bowed and said apologetically.

He first encountered the title "True Lord Yuheng" in a tortoise shell divination, and knew nothing about this Nascent Soul cultivator.

He knew very little about the Nascent Soul cultivators from a thousand years ago. Feng Liuying was the one he was most familiar with, but he only learned about her life story before he met her at the Evergreen Ancient Tree and helped her escape from there.

"I am but a lingering remnant, trapped here for countless years. It is understandable that you do not recognize me." The remnant remnant of True Lord Yuheng was slightly disappointed, but quickly regained his composure and smiled at Chen Qingmo, saying:

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore."

"Young Qingmo, countless cultivators have entered my cave, including hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators and dozens of Golden Core cultivators, but you are the only one who has ever seen me."

"I am very satisfied with your talent in array formations. Would you be interested in passing on your mantle to me and becoming my disciple? This is a true Nascent Soul inheritance. Think it over before you answer."

Yuheng Zhenjun wore a smile, exuding confidence.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Qingmo said hesitantly, "Senior, I am indeed very interested in your teachings, but I already have a master. Would it be better to become your disciple instead?"

He didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was already very clear.

Upon hearing this, True Lord Yuheng found it somewhat amusing: "Boy, why is your brain only brilliant in the realm of formations? Who says a cultivator can only have one master? Does your master know all the skills of the immortal path?"

Chen Qingmo shook his head: "Of course not."

"That settles it then." True Monarch Yuheng sat on the stone chair and said calmly, "On the path of cultivation, those who have attained enlightenment become teachers. Making you my disciple is not an invitation to betray another sect."

Then, as if remembering something, True Monarch Yuheng asked, "Are you a member of a sect?"

"no."

"If not, then you don't need to worry about such things. You can inquire around and see if there are any cultivators who have studied under many powerful masters in order to learn advanced techniques."

Yuheng Zhenjun scoffed at Chen Qingmo's ideas, seeing them as nothing more than pedantry.

"I've learned something, young man." Chen Qingmo remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he recalled the words from his past life.

Learning knows no order of precedence; those who have achieved mastery are teachers.

He also agreed with this statement.

However, he had never seen anyone in the State of Qi with two teachers, so he tacitly accepted this situation.

Listening to the words of True Lord Yuheng now, I feel a sense of sudden enlightenment.

"Have you thought it through? Are you willing to become my disciple and learn the art of array formations?"

Yuheng Zhenjun asked again.

"I wish to become a senior disciple and pay my respects to my master." This time, Chen Qingmo did not hesitate and immediately became a disciple.

It is extremely rare for a Nascent Soul cultivator to take the initiative to spread the Dao; he is not an ungrateful person.

"Haha, good disciple, sit down quickly. You must have many questions in your heart after all this time. I will not hide anything from you that I can tell you."

Yuheng Zhenjun quickly invited Chen Qingmo to sit down in front of him.

"Master, you just said that both Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators have entered the cave heaven. Doesn't that mean you set tests based on each person's cultivation level? How often does this happen to me?"

Chen Qingmo's suspicions were confirmed when Jade Balance True Lord appeared.

All the challenges of the formation are manifested by this lingering thought.

"Not many. What do you think I had you set up so many formations for? The purpose was to test the level of formation skills of the cultivators who entered the cave."

"There are only eight Foundation Establishment cultivators as proficient in sixth-grade formations as you. As for those who have successfully set up seventh-grade formations, there is not a single one. I even gave them three years."

"Imperial Lord Yuheng said slowly, his gaze toward Chen Qingmo filled with satisfaction and approval."

Even among the Golden Core cultivators who entered his small grotto-heaven, their talent in formations was far inferior to Chen Qingmo's.

"Master's praise makes me a little embarrassed," Chen Qingmo chuckled dryly.

"You deserve it!" True Lord Yuheng said seriously, as he had no reason to lie about such a matter.

"Master, there is still one thing I don't understand. I hope you can enlighten me." Chen Qingmo thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"Just ask."

"In the present-day Qi Kingdom, where I am, and even in the surrounding countries, there are only formations of grades one to nine, which are at most equivalent to the late Golden Core stage or the Golden Core Perfection stage."

"But as far as I know, there are Nascent Soul and higher realms in the path of cultivation. Why haven't any higher-level array formations been passed down? Doesn't this restrict the path of array formations?" Chen Qingmo asked, puzzled. This was a question he had had since he began studying array formations and talismans.

He had asked many acquaintances, but no one could answer the question for him. They all said it was something that had been around for a long time and that he just needed to follow it.

"So that's the problem. It's not a secret, but so much time has passed that the nine ranks have probably become the accepted classification in the cultivation world. I suppose this applies to both formations and talismans."

Yuheng Zhenjun looked enlightened and then told Chen Qingmo everything.

Thousands of years ago, the classification of formations and talismans was no different from that of elixirs and other skills; they were all of the first and second order grades.

As these two paths developed, the power of formations and talismans gradually became apparent, and Nascent Soul cultivators began to keep their special skills secret.

Over time, Nascent Soul level techniques gradually disappeared from the sight of ordinary cultivators, and various powerful formations and talismans could only be learned by the direct disciples of Nascent Soul cultivators.

Compared to these two, other skills are not as suitable for combat, and fewer people practice them, so they have been passed down normally.

On one occasion, someone changed the grade of the formation and talismans, and the news reached the ears of cultivators from all sides.

Lacking access to higher-level techniques, they simply regarded the Golden Core realm formations and talismans as their strongest skills, and dared not even dream of anything beyond the Nascent Soul realm.

Therefore, Chen Qingmo had never seen any formations or talismans above the ninth rank, but had only heard rumors that there were formations that surpassed the ninth rank.

"Is that the reason? Then what about you, Master?" Chen Qingmo looked at Yuheng Zhenjun, his thoughts self-evident.

"I have also concealed my knowledge of array formations. Otherwise, if I were to teach the world by myself, wouldn't I be surrounded and killed by other cultivators? A tree that stands out in the forest will surely be felled by the wind. As your master, I am not invincible, so naturally I have to think about my own safety."

"Moreover, my standards for accepting disciples are extremely high, and ordinary people cannot meet my standards. It is precisely because of this that few people can learn my Taoist methods."

"Imperial Lord Yuheng said calmly, his eyes filled with a hint of arrogance."
