Knowing that it was the culprit who had caused him to be beaten up so badly, Jiang Yuan clenched his jaws in frustration. Without any hesitation, he charged at Feng Xun.
Even though they were in grave danger, if they were to swallow this humiliation, how could they, as combat masters, fight in the future?
"Zhang Shi, Wu Shi … Save me!"
Jiang Yuan had achieved a breakthrough to Primordial Spirit realm, so naturally, Feng Xun wasn't a match for him. Unable to hold himself back any longer, he hurriedly cried for help.
Wu Shi, Zhang Xuan, and the others turned their backs to Feng Xun, feigning ignorance.
"This formation is indeed difficult to deal with!"
"Indeed, if only there was a way …"
"The weather is great today!"
"The weather is clear, and the wind is gentle …"
Save you? You must be joking! You were so happy when you were pummeling Feng Xun earlier, you should at least let me vent a little, right? Otherwise, wouldn't I be letting Jiang Yuan down too much?
After a while of pummeling, Jiang Yuan finally calmed down.
At this moment, Feng Xun's head was already swollen to the point that it looked as if it was on fire.
Seeing the state Feng Xun was in, Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up. A thought suddenly came to his mind, and he exclaimed, "That's right! Why didn't I think of that? Since we are unable to breach the formation, we can get the Scarletleaf King to help us …"
"You want to help us?" Everyone was taken aback.
"Indeed …" Zhang Xuan chuckled softly as he flicked his wrist, and a bunch of formation flags appeared in his palm.
The grade-7 formation flags that President Han and the others had taken out previously hadn't been used up yet.
"Go!"
A formation blueprint surfaced in the Library of Heaven's Path, and with a deep bellow, the formation flags flew out.
He currently possessed the strength of a Seven Star pinnacle formation master. Even though he was unable to set up a Seven Star pinnacle formation due to his lacking cultivation, setting up ordinary grade-7 formations was still a walk in the park.
The formation flags landed on the ground, circled around, and stomped on the ground.
Weng!
The formation was activated, and a white mist immediately shrouded everyone within it.
"Does Zhang Shi mean to say that … we should hide in the formation to lure the Scarletleaf King over?"
President Han's eyes lit up.
Previously, when they were trapped in the formation, they had been in the dark while the other party was out in the open, and it had been easy for them to fall into a disadvantageous position. However, now that they were trapped in the Seven Star Beguilement Formation, the Scarletleaf King would not be able to see them. With this, it would be difficult for the Scarletleaf King to do anything to them.
Successfully turned an unfavorable situation into a favorable one.
While it might seem like a simple task, as a 7-star pinnacle formation master, Zhang Xuan knew how difficult it was to accomplish such a feat.
To set up a formation within a formation, one had to know the surrounding formation like the back of one's hand. In fact, one had to be fully aware of many of the changes. Otherwise, if the opponent's formation changed, the surrounding aura would change, and one's formation would collapse on its own, giving the game away.
If it was someone else, they wouldn't be able to do it even if they wanted to. Perhaps only a freak like Zhang Shi could do it.
"Yes …" Zhang Xuan nodded.
Hearing Zhang Xuan's confirmation, the crowd immediately came to a realization, and their eyes lit up. Only Feng Xun stood by the side with a bewildered look on his face. To think that you would think of this after seeing me being beaten up so badly …
What does this array have to do with me being beaten? How did you come up with that? What in the world is going on in your head?
"With this formation, we won't have to worry about being attacked anymore. Let's recuperate and recover our strength first …"
Zhang Xuan instructed.
Ever since entering the celestial palace, they had been under constant attack, and they were already exhausted.
"Yes …" The crowd nodded. They took out their recovery pills and spirit stones before sitting on the floor to cultivate.
Seeing that there was no danger for the time being, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to verify a certain theory he had in mind, he suddenly caught a whiff of fragrance. Lozosy walked up to him, and with a complicated look in her eyes, she said, "Thank you!"
"There's no need to stand on ceremony."
Knowing that Luo Ruoxin was thanking him for what had happened earlier, Zhang Xuan replied with a smile.
In any case, the other party wasn't the Skyleaf King, so he was just speaking the truth.
"Thank you for trusting me …"
Luo Ruoxin shook her head as she seemed to have thought of something, and a hint of disappointment surfaced on her face. However, it swiftly disappeared, and she stretched out her hand. "If you really wish to breach the formation, I might be able to help you!"
"Oh? You know what this formation is? "Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
"I don't know. However, this formation is layered on top of one another, one after another. There's no end to it. If one were to barge in forcefully, one would fall into an endless loop, unable to escape forever … unless one were to jump out of the formation!"
Lozosy said.
"Leap out of the formation? How do we do that? "Zhang Xuan asked with a bitter smile.
If it was possible to leap out of the formation, he would have long found a way to do so. However, it was a pity that the Library of Heaven's Path was only capable of examining the flaws of a small formation. It was unable to examine the entire formation, so he was unable to determine the direction and direction of the formation.
"We have already barged into several courtyards, and each of them has a diameter of several hundred meters. Based on our calculations, even if we aren't able to escape from the celestial palace, we should be at the edge of the formation by now. However, even if we barge into several dozen courtyards, we still won't be able to get out. Don't you find it strange?"
Lozosy said.
"This … Are you saying that this formation harnesses the secrets of space?" Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
Judging from the distance, they should have been able to get out of the formation, but they were unable to do so. Thus, there could only be one possibility … it was a Spatial Formation!
"Indeed. Why didn't I think of that? Ancient Sage Qiu Wu is skilled in spatial manipulation, and that's also the reason why he was able to set up such a formidable seal. Besides, we encountered a Spatial Formation as soon as we arrived here.
Before Luo Ruoxin could reply, Zhang Xuan slapped his forehead in realization.
They had been trapped in the Spatial Formation as soon as they arrived. Under normal circumstances, they should have been able to think of spatial manipulation after entering the Spatial Formation … How could they have overlooked it?
"Thank you for enlightening me, Ruoxi. I love you so much …"
Filled with excitement, Zhang Xuan leaped up and planted a kiss on Luo Ruoxin's cheeks before bursting into laughter.
"You …"
Not expecting Zhang Xuan to do such a thing, Lozosy was caught off guard. Her eyes widened in shock, and her face reddened in embarrassment.
This fellow seems to be an honest fellow, so why … why …
"I'm going to ignore you …"
Turning around, Zhang Xuan walked into the Spatial Formation and sat down cross-legged. Only then did he feel his face burning up.
"I …"
It was due to a moment of excitement that he had gone overboard. Seeing the young lady turn around and leave, Zhang Xuan finally came to his senses, and he felt a little embarrassed. However, when he touched his lips … It smelled good.
"She won't ignore me anymore, will she?"
Regardless of whether it was in his previous life or his current one, he had never been in love before. Thus, he immediately panicked upon experiencing such a matter. This was completely different from the disposition he had when he was leading the world.
However, he knew that this wasn't the time for him to be thinking about such matters. Thus, he quickly calmed himself down before flicking his wrist and taking out the Myriad Anthive Queen.
He knew nothing about Spatial Formations, but the Myriad Anthive Queen was born with the ability to do so. Perhaps, it might be able to find a way out and lead them out.
Thus, Zhang Xuan explained the current situation to the Myriad Anthive Queen.
Nodding, the Myriad Anthive Queen crouched on the ground and began sniffing.
The Myriad Anthive Queen was born with the ability to set up space, but it didn't have a deep understanding of spatial laws.
It was just like how a bee built a perfect hexagon nest. Not even architects were capable of such a feat … After all, it couldn't be said that the bee was a genius in civil engineering and architecture!
After sniffing the ground for a moment, the Myriad Anthive Queen stood up.
"Master, this is a folded space. I can lead you to find a way out …"
"That's great!"
Seeing that the Myriad Anthive Queen was indeed able to find a way out, Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up in excitement. He quickly turned around to inform Wu Shi and the others.
This time, he used telepathy.
Soon, the group gathered together.
Even though they hadn't rested for long, they had already recovered most of their strength.
"Everyone, follow behind the Myriad Anthive Queen. Don't fall behind …"
After instructing the others, Zhang Xuan walked up to Lozosy. Seeing that the young lady wasn't angry, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Let's follow them too!"
As he said those words, he grabbed the young lady's hand tightly.
"You …"
She struggled for a moment, only to realize that the other party's grip was growing tighter and tighter.
Aren't you getting more and more overboard by opening a dye house for a color?
Just as she was about to retract her hand and teach the other party a lesson, the young man's voice suddenly sounded.
"The first time I met you at the Phantasmal Forest, you stood before the waterfall calmly, blending into the surroundings as though an ink painting. At that moment, I knew that I had found a purpose in life!
"When I saw you surrounded by spirit beasts, I couldn't help but make a move. Eventually, in the cavern, I suffered a backlash from my soul, and you were the one who saved me. By the time I woke up, you were already gone … I didn't know your name or who you were, and I thought that I would never meet you again in this life. I felt a sense of loss, as if I had lost the most important treasure in my life.
"Later on, when I met you once more in the Master Teacher Academy, I was so agitated that I nearly exploded. I felt like I had to ask for your name and find out who you were …"
Recalling his past with the young lady, a sweet smile surfaced on Zhang Xuan's face.
He had met many women in his reincarnation. Some were graceful, some were gentle, some were domineering, some were helpless, and some even harbored special feelings for him … But for some reason, only the young lady before him made his heart flutter.
Thus, he didn't want to miss out on this opportunity!
"We went to the Saint Ascension Platform together, and even though I saw Kong shi's will there and obtained the books that he had written personally, what made me the happiest was still the time we spent together. Every day, after I was done cultivating, I would see you sitting not too far away from me. You were so quiet and tranquil, chatting with me, discussing the flaws and strengths of cultivation techniques with me … To be honest, I really wish that time could stop and just stay right before my eyes forever …"
"Do you know how happy I was when you told me that you wanted to come to the ancient domain with me? Everyone says that this place is very dangerous and that there's no return. But I feel that if I can be with you, it's worth it no matter how dangerous it is … "
"Only then did I realize how much I wanted to be with you, to be with you forever. Even if I were to die, I wouldn't regret it!"
Looking at the young lady, Zhang Xuan's eyes shone with determination.
"Ruoxi, please allow me to hold your hand like this and walk down this path, alright?"
(Zhang Xuan has already confessed to me. Don't you all have Monthly Votes? Also, my single chapter yesterday was a reversal. I haven't even finished reading it yet, and you are already saying that I am arrogant? At this moment, Laoya was still kneeling on the floor with tears streaming down his cheeks. He felt that he had gone too far … Dear reader, dear reader, I was wrong …)
