The entire sect is obsessed with love, but I'm the only one who's truly insane.

After Lin Du saw the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm appear, he already had another idea in mind. Since it was the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm, it must be very powerful, after all, evil spirits dare not approach it.

Since that was the case, she changed her mind on the spot. After altering the formation on the ground, she looked up at the divine palace and then flew up.

"Junior Sister, what are you doing?" Ju Yuan noticed something and shouted.

"What are we doing?" Lin Du chuckled, "Doing what a formation master should do!"

What is a formation master? Is it simply using what you've learned to arrange materials containing various powers and different attributes into a formation with a certain effect to reduce manpower?

That's not all.

The formation master, relying on the power of heaven, earth, mountains, and seas, draws upon the spirit of all things in heaven and earth, creating nature and achieving harmony between heaven and man, reaching the ultimate realm.

The man in blue robes leaped high into the air and headed straight for the palace in the sky.

Someone caught a glimpse of the figure and couldn't help but sneer, "Even now, there are still deserters."

But as he lowered his head to kill the demon, he suddenly thought of that person's full head of white hair, and his heart skipped a beat. Wasn't that Lin Du from the Supreme Sect?

White hair is already rare, and didn't the Supreme Sect just say they would defend it to the death?

He kept saying he was going to fight to the death, but then he ran away first?

The cultivator couldn't help but look up again, his disdain turning into astonishment.

What is Lin Du doing?

Instead of entering the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm as the cultivator had expected, the person took a detour, vaguely holding some kind of array plate in his hand, and circled the four corners of the secret realm's divine palace. Then, using the sky as a curtain and spiritual power as a brush, he continuously drew strange characters in the sky.

It doesn't look like drawing symbols, it looks more like... calculation?

Wait, calculation??

What are you calculating? Battle formations?

The monk stared in astonishment.

Lin Du was indeed calculating. Since reaching the Huiyang Realm and fusing with a very small portion of the spirit, although the memories were scattered and insignificant, after her divine sense reached the fourth realm, the array formations she had learned in her previous life were mixed with all the array formations she had learned in this life. She could say that her array formations had at least reached the level of a Heavenly Rank Array Master.

What is a Heavenly Rank Array? It is the ability to comprehend the laws of nature and reach the ultimate realm.

At this stage, it all comes down to understanding and applying the rules of heaven and earth and nature.

As luck would have it, Lin Du was half a spirit of heaven and earth, possessing an extremely high affinity and comprehension of nature.

The Way of Heaven and the Way of Man are contradictory yet unified. The Way of Man conforms to the Way of Heaven, and is guided by the constraints of the Way of Heaven. The Way of Man can also utilize the Way of Heaven, turning the constraints into a driving force for its own progress.

If the Demon Lord can manipulate the rules of Heaven, then why can't she?

Since it is a secret realm of the Heavenly Dao, it naturally contains rich spiritual energy and rules of heaven and earth. Both my master and my senior master have said that the Heavenly Dao is extremely pure.

The Heavenly Dao Secret Realm has appeared? Then let's bring it down. The golden palace in the sky will be the child formation, and the demonic tree on the ground will be the mother formation. The child and the mother will be drawn together, and heaven and earth will be united into one formation. She wants to make one of the two chess pieces that Qianyu has calculated become a public chess piece, which will then be used by her, Lin Du, and then the other chess piece will be eaten.

Lin Du's eyes were resolute. Since he had nowhere to take out a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, he would simply use his spiritual power to calculate in the air.

After finishing the last stroke, Lin Du glanced at it to confirm that everything was correct, and then began to arrange the formation around the magnificent and imposing palace.

When will the rules of Heaven be able to completely side with Lin Du, this snow spirit, and allow her to use them?

In winter, on a snowy day.

Lin Du formed hand seals, fully accepting his half-spirit identity. He activated his innate skill of summoning snow, causing the spiritual energy in his dantian to surge rapidly, transforming into ice and snow that poured out.

A heavy snow fell, and frost arrived overnight.

"Snow? It's snowing? It's even Lingxue!!!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise that, even under the blood moon, spiritual snow, which brings blessings to cultivators, could still fall.

On the city wall, the cultivators witnessed a scene they would never forget in their lives, through the gaps in the demonic formation that was trying to corrode the defensive array.

The snow fell amidst the demonic tide outside the city, but it stopped just outside the defensive array of the city wall. The endless white snow disappeared into the chaotic and filthy horde of demons, but the snow in the sky continued endlessly.

In that vast expanse of white snow, even the Golden Palace seemed too vulgar and materialistic.

No one could see clearly that among the dense snowflakes, countless fine threads originated from the same point, crisscrossing each other. These were the threads used by array masters to connect different array stones by drawing power when setting up an array. Different special materials also came with different attributes and characteristics.

At this moment, those fine threads rapidly wove a huge traction array on the sky, and the heavy snow concealed these seemingly too thin and fragile threads.

Yet these seemingly insignificant things rapidly formed enormous array patterns within Lin Du's spiritual snow. The light emanating from the golden palace dispersed the original chaotic black sky and blood moon, but only in the surrounding gaps.

The array pattern, gleaming with silver light, seemed to have opened the gates of heaven within the darkness of the chaotic purgatory.

Lin Du rushed swiftly into the demonic tide, releasing several strange threads from his hand and simultaneously activating the sub-arrays he had previously set up on the ground.

"Senior brother! Next, one person to the left and one to the right, two people per group, entangle the mother tree!"

Ju Yuan and Pei Qin quickly took it, and Hou Cang also landed on the opposite side of the forest crossing. The four figures intersected in front of the terrifying, black, split mother tree, which was as big as a small mountain, moving as fast as four streaks of light.

Seeing that everything was arranged, Lin Du smiled with determination. Then he leaped into the air, formed hand seals, and his spiritual power quickly connected the mother-child array between heaven and earth.

The heavy snowfall in the sky stopped instantly, ceasing its downward fall.

The sounds of fighting and battling seemed to pause for a moment as a result.

Just then, an arrogant and unrestrained voice rang out, "Everyone around the Demon Mother Tree, make way! I'll perform for you all: Heaven and Earth Unite! All Things Return to One!"

"Even if it's the Heavenly Dao, give it to me now!" Lin Du took a deep breath, calculating and unleashing all the remaining spiritual power and divine sense he had left, forcefully pushing the core of the Heaven and Earth Formation to activate. "Come down! Kill the demon!!!"

The Golden Palace initially unleashed a tremendous force of severance, attempting to struggle upwards and block the penetrating power of ice and snow.

Between heaven and earth, the winds and clouds swirl. Snow Spirit's territory is truly favored by the Heavenly Dao. Even the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm cannot stop the power of ice and snow.

Thus, the gravitational pull between the two array patterns of heaven and earth came into full play, and the dazzling snow-white silver light formed a huge pillar of light between heaven and earth. The sub-array and the mother array merged into one, and the demonic mother tree and the heavenly secret realm rushed towards each other and collided.

Boom!!!

The immense impact scattered countless cultivators in all directions. The cultivators on the city wall stared wide-eyed and gaped, utterly shocked by the scene before them.

The golden palace actually crashed down from the sky, slamming down on the core mother tree of the demonic tide—the demonic tree that even Master Houcang couldn't completely defeat, a tree with infinite regeneration and closure capabilities.

After a violent collision and friction between the source of demonic energy and the power of the Heavenly Dao, the demonic energy was visibly shattered by the golden power of the Heavenly Dao. Then... the golden palace slowly fell, the mother tree grew shorter and flatter, and finally shattered into pieces, turning into mud.

The demonic energy dissipated, and the demonic embryo was completely destroyed.

Shockwaves spread outwards in waves, severely impacting the demons at the border.

The still snow finally fell completely after the shockwave, a thin layer covering the corpses outside the city with the cleanest blanket at that moment.

At this moment, people finally saw the person who had set up the formation clearly. She stood in front of the golden hall, wearing a tattered and dirty blue robe. Her white hair was disheveled, and her silver pupils slowly dimmed, turning into ordinary gray.

At this moment, even the brilliance of the Golden Palace was merely a foil to her.

Lin Du raised his hand, removed his mask, took a deep breath of the clean, cool air after the snow, and smiled amidst the surprised and amazed gazes around him. "I told you, I'm a formation master! Don't just stand there! Clean up the battlefield! Kill all the remaining demons!"

The members of the Supreme Sect were the first to recover their senses, shouting, "Long live Junior Uncle!!! Slay the demons!! Slay the demons!"

Hou Cang hesitated for a moment, but ultimately drew his sword and charged towards the group of demons who had been knocked away but were still alive.

Killing the remaining low- to mid-level demons will be quick.

"Wait a minute! I have some medicine powder here that can suppress evil spirits!!" a female voice rang out.

Several low-level cultivators from the Jishi Sect leaped down from the city wall, holding strange magical artifacts that evenly sprayed out medicinal powder, which landed on the horde of demons that had been pushed to the front of the defensive formation.

The cultivators who were also rushed to the city gate raised their weapons at the same time. This was good, as they were already exhausted and this powder could reduce many casualties.

After seeing everyone fully engaged in the battle, Lin Du finally released her last bit of strength. Just as she lifted her foot, the immense feeling of exhaustion made her sway slightly.

She lowered her head, letting the blood, sweet and metallic in her throat, drip onto the ground.

White hair fell loosely, obscuring Lin Du's view.

"Are you alright? Let me examine you."

Lin Du raised his head slightly and met Du Shao's concerned eyes.
