Chapter 264: Formation Master

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ordinary teleportation formations could only transport up to ten thousand miles, at most a hundred thousand. However, any deemed a “great” formation would start at a minimum of one hundred thousand miles.

Earlier, the reason rhe Purple Clouds Holy Land could swiftly arrive near the God Demon Sect was likely because they had utilized a great teleportation formation. Setting up such a formation required a formation master.

Although Su Chen had studied some formation knowledge, he still had a long way to go before becoming a master. As for the Great Mystery Sacred Sect, they were only a newly promoted saint-level faction. Their foundation was still insufficient to nurture a formation master.

Thus, the idea of relying on teleportation formations to reach the Purple Clouds Holy Land was thoroughly shattered. They could only slowly fly there by themselves.

“Elder Fan…1‘ Su Chen pondered for a moment before speaking again. “Doyon know if rhe Great Mystery Sacred Sects treasury contains any saint-level materials?”

“Why is Holy Son asking this?” Elder Fan sized him up in confusion, a strange look on his face. “Could it be you want to refine a sacred weapon?”

Such an idea was far too inconceivable. Su Chen had yet to even reach the Saint Realm, still having a long road ahead. Even if he now had saint-level materials, refining a sacred weapon may not succeed.

“I do have such plans,” Su Chen admitted with a slight nod. His aim in collecting saint-level materials was precisely to refine sacred weapons. Once succeeded, they would definitely be used to slay enemies. Since he would be exposed sooner or later, why not admit it now?

“Sacred weapons aren’t so easily refined!” Elder Fan spoke in a deep voice. “The saint-level materials required for each surpass counting…”

He looked at Su Chen. Considering Su Chen’s strength, he could not help sighing. “Holy Son’s growth has been far too swift. I’m afraid it won’t be long before you reach the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm. Searching for materials now is reasonable. It’s a pity the few sacred weapon materials in the Great Mystery Sacred Sect have already been used by the Supreme Elder…”

Su Chen was speechless. He had assumed the Great Mystery Sacred Sect contained some saint-level materials. But nowit seemed that he couldn’t rely on the sect. If he wanted saint-level materials, he could only rely on himself.

Just as he was about to tell Elder Fan that he couldn’t make it to the Purple Clouds Holy Land, Elder Fan seemed to recall something and quickly added, “Oh, the Holy City will be holding an auction in a few months! I’ve heard that saint-level materials will appear at this auction. Holy Son, you might as well go take a look.”

“Holy City?” Hearing this, Su Chen was taken aback. After pondering deeply, he asked, “Is it the Holy City of the Yin Yang Holy Land?”

“Yes!” Elder Fan nodded lightly. “This auction is backed by the True Treasure Pavilion. Speaking of which, the Pavilion Master there has met Holy Son once before.”

“Oh, I remember now,” Su Chen replied as a figure flashed through his mind. Back in the God Demon Sect’s ruins, he had encountered many Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses, including the Pavilion Master of Holy City’s True Treasure Pavilion.

This person’s strength was formidable, at rhe late stage of the Qua si-Saint Realm, only a single step from the peak stage. Su Chen had even gifted him a spiritual herb before. Later, when Su Chen battled the Infinite Demon Sect experts, the Pavilion Master also lent a hand.

“The Holy City is a must on the path to the Purple Clouds Holy Land. It seems I’ve no choice but to go,” Su Chen remarked.

Til leave everything to Holy Son!” Elder Fan hurriedly cupped his fists. To be frank, throughout the entire Great Mystery Sacred Sect, everyone hoped Su Chen would attend the convention except the Holy Lord.

The reason was simple. Su Chen’s strength had already reached the Quasi-Saint Realm. With him representing them, the Great Mystery Sacred Sect s reputation would surely resound throughout the world after the Prodigy Gathering. But if he didn’t go, they would have to forsake this opportunity. After all, their sect’s foundation was still shallow.

Apart from the Holy Lord being in the Quasi-Saint Realm, most of the other elders were only in the Nirvana Realm. The few Quasi-Saint Realm elders were merely at the initial stage, utterly incomparable to elders of other holy lands.

“It’s a small matter.” Su Chen waved his hand dismissively. With a thought, a golden light flew forth, transforming into a golden chariot floating before him. The supreme-grade Dao weapon’s power instantly enveloped Holy Son Peak.

Seeing the golden chariot, Elder Fan’s pupils constricted slightly, his heart filled with shock. If he remembered right, not long ago this had merely been a supreme-grade flying spiritual treasure. Yet after only a year, it had become a supreme-grade Dao weapon. This was simply unbelievable.

“Holy Son’s resources perhaps exceed everyone’s guesses. Maybe even the entire Great Mystery Sacred Sect combined cannot match his wealth.”

Elder Fan pursed his lips, a trace of envy in his heart. He was extremely curious about just where Su Chen had obtained so many treasures. Even robbing ancient great saints’ tombs shouldn’t bring such abundant riches, right?

Buzz…

Vibrations resounded in the void. The golden chariot transformed into a flowing light, shooting straight for the horizon. In just a blink, it had vanished into the distance.

“Supreme-grade Dao weapon…” Elder Fan murmured as he slowly withdrew his gaze. “Let us take our leave as well.”

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.

Outside the Yin Yang Holy Land’s Holy City, several travel-worn figures hurried forth. The leader was a young girl whose fluttering clothes lent her an ethereal, natural grace. With beauty akin to a fairy, her entire being emanated a certain Daoist charm.

The moment she entered the Holy City, her gaze fixed on the surroundings. “So this is a city of the East Barrens? Such majesty, it s truly unbelievable! ”

Ever since arriving in the East Barrens, she had never set foot into a city before. This was her first time laying eyes on one.

Glancing about, the palaces towered like divine peaks, extraordinarily tall and lending an inexplicable pressure.

“This is Holy City, within the sphere of influence of the Yin Yang Holy Land,” one young man behind the girl explained. “Miss Huo, you can relax now that we’ve arrived. The Golden Crow Clan is powerful, bin will have difficulty extending their reach this fan”

The girl did not reply, fully aware of their intentions. They were merely covering the inheritance in her possession. Since they lusted after it, she could make use of them as shields. If the Golden Crow Clan came attacking, these people could serve her well.

“You can’t put it that way,” another handsome man dressed in blue countered. “Although mighty, the Yin Yang Holy Land still pales considerably compared to the Golden Crow Clan. Miss Huo has slain two of their princes before. Naturally, they won’t let matters rest.”

Every action of his seemed to carry a sharp sword intent, giving others a fearful impression..
