In the cloudless sky.
Ling Xian rode on the wind. His black hair and white robe danced in the wind, making him look like an immortal.
Ning Yan's skin was as smooth as jade, and her eyes were as clear as autumn water. She was like a fairy that had descended to the mortal world. Her beauty was enough to topple nations and cities.
She rode on the wind and sighed with emotion. "I didn't expect that you'd become a guest of the Pavilion of Three Lives in such a short time."
"There's nothing strange about it."
Ling Xian softly grinned, "You've seen my Dao of Talismans. Do you think I don't have the right to be your Honorable Guest?"
"That's not it. Although I don't understand the Talisman Dao, I know you're already a Talisman Dao Grandmaster."
Ning Yan shook her head and said, "Talisman Masters are very rare. Even in the entire Luo Yang Region, there aren't many of them. Naturally, they are qualified to become the guest of the Pavilion of Three Lives. I'm just surprised. Didn't you say that you would leave the Three Lives Pavilion after settling this matter? "
"Firstly, it's my first time here and I'm unfamiliar with this place. I need a place where I can stay for a long time. Secondly, I can't refuse Pavilion Master's kind invitation. "
Ling Xian faintly grinned and gave two reasons. Both were true.
However, the reason why Ninedust had so warmly invited him wasn't to become a guest retainer; it was to become the master of the Hidden Pavilion. Of course, he wouldn't tell Ning Yan about this.
"I see."
Ning Yan nodded and said with a smile, "That's good too. With you joining us, the Dao Pavilion's strength will increase."
"You are flattering me." Ling Xian faintly smiled.
"It just so happens that I don't know any talisman masters. With you around, it will be easy to get talismans in the future."
Ning Yan smiled and said, "Let's go, I will take you to the Dao Pavilion first, then I will arrange a place for you to stay."
After saying that, she sped up and streaked across the sky like a meteor.
Ling Xian was the same.
After a while, he and Ning Yan came to a mountain range. The numerous mountains were lofty and magnificent, and they were surrounded by green water and suffused with white mist. It was like a holy land for immortals.
"We're here. This is the territory of the Dao Pavilion. Inside are people who are immersed in talismans, arrays, alchemy, and weapons. They are responsible for providing cultivation resources to the Three Lives Pavilion."
After a brief introduction, Ning Yan moved and arrived at the highest peak of the mountain.
Ling Xian landed as well.
Then, he frowned. He felt like he was being tightly surrounded by an array. Not only did it have the ability to restrict movement, it also had the ability to seal magic power.
This piqued his interest, because this array was a talisman array. In other words, it was an array formed by the fusion of two talisman arrays. This kind of formation was very novel to him. It was something that he had never come across in the cultivation world.
Therefore, Ling Xian manipulated his enlivener and attempted to break this array.
At this moment, an old man with disheveled hair and a dirty face walked out of the cave. His clothes were covered in mud, and it was unknown how long it had been since he washed them. He looked very slovenly.
As soon as the man saw Ning Yan, a helpless expression appeared on his face. He said, "It's you again, you stupid girl. Go, go, go. Hurry up and leave, or I'll be annoyed when I see you."
Hearing this, Ning Yan was not annoyed. She smiled and said, "Pavilion Master, I only took some of your talismans and destroyed a few of your Formations. Do you have to bother me so much?"
"What do you mean by taking some talismans and destroying a few formations? Those are all treasures that I painstakingly refined. But you, you took them all without a word. Do you know how much effort I put into those treasures? "
The old man was enraged and said impatiently, "Go, go, go. Hurry up and leave. Or else I will kick you out."
"That won't do. I am here today under the orders of the Pavilion Master."
Ning Yan smiled brightly and shifted her gaze towards Ling Xian, "This is the Pavilion Master, Li Wuwei. He is one of the few grandmasters in the Luo Yang Region. He is also a grandmaster of both arrays and arrays."
"Oh?"
Ling Xian raised an eyebrow, a little surprised. He didn't think this slovenly old man was a grandmaster of both arrays and arrays!
Remember that to become a grandmaster in one field was already an extremely difficult task. Yet this person was a grandmaster of both arrays and arrays. This surprised him.
But after thinking about it, he understood. If he didn't have some skills, how could he become the Pavilion Master?
"This is Ling Xian. He is the Honorable Guest that the Pavilion Master just invited." Ning Yan introduced Ling Xian.
"Honorable Guest?"
Li Wuwei was a little startled and mumbled, "That Xiang Jiuchen, he's shoving people at me again."
"My name is Ling Xian. Nice to meet you, Pavilion Master." Ling Xian faintly smiled and paid his respect to the old man.
"Wait, don't call me Pavilion Master. I haven't acknowledged you as a member of the Pavilion yet."
Li Wuwei pouted, "Last time, Xiang Jiuchen recommended me a Honorable Guest. He said he was very talented. But what happened? After being my assistant for three days, he left with his tail between his legs. He has no skills at all. He's a liar! "
"It's not that he doesn't have skills. It's that you play with arrays every day and don't even have time to rest. No one would be able to take it." Ning Yan bitterly smiled.
"Bullsh * t! He clearly isn't good enough. He can't even complete the tasks I gave him. How dare he call himself talented? I think he's worse than an apprentice. "
Li Wuwei cursed and waved his hand, "Alright, I won't waste any more time with you. Since Xiang Jiuchen has spoken, I have to give him face. However, I have to test this person. The Pavilion does not accept useless Honorable Guests. "
Hearing this, Ling Xian shook his head and laughed. He didn't think he would be tested again. However, he was very confident in his own abilities. Therefore, he faintly smiled, "Pavilion Master, please give me your test."
"Good. Hmm, let me think."
The old man paused and glanced at the arrays around the mountain peak. "How about this. If you can make a hole in this array and allow yourself to move freely, I will let you pass."
Before Ling Xian could say anything else, Ning Yan spoke first.
"Pavilion Master, this array is one of the most important arrays you've ever designed. You used up all of your abilities."
Ning Yan glared at the old man, "In the entire Luo Yang City, who doesn't know of your abilities? You used up all of your energy to set up this array. It's not hard to imagine how difficult it is. Yet you want Ling Xian to solve it? Aren't you purposely making things difficult for him? "
"Hehe, I didn't ask him to completely solve it. I just need to make a hole."
Li Wuwei chuckled drily. He knew very well how knowledgeable he was with arrays. Therefore, he felt like he was making things difficult for Ling Xian.
"That won't do. To make a hole requires a thorough understanding of the array. Normal grandmasters can't do that."
Ning Yan glared at the old man again, "You are purposely making things difficult for him. Do you think I won't tell the Pavilion Master?"
"This again? I don't care. I have given you a test. Whether or not he can solve it is up to him."
The old man pouted and snickered, "If he doesn't have the ability, then leave. The Pavilion is not a place where just anyone can enter."
"You!"
Ning Yan was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
In the entire Pavilion, Li Wuwei was the most powerful person. Even Xiang Jiuchen couldn't interfere. Therefore, what else could she do?
Just then, she realized that Li Wuwei's eyes widened as if he had just seen a ghost.
This made her suspicious. Following Li Wuwei's gaze, she revealed the same expression as the old man.
Because Ling Xian, who was trapped by the array, had taken a step forward.
