Tan Qingwei smiled and said, "It's fine as long as we make it in time. In fact, we haven't been here for long, but True Monarch Skyfall has been here for quite some time."
Ye Kong quickly clasped his hands and said, "Senior Skyfall, thank you for your trouble."
Skyfall waved his hand and said, "Actually, I don't have a choice. I have to settle my body in advance … Okay, enough with the small talk. Let's go inside and talk."
As soon as Skyfall spoke, the Corpse Sect disciples behind him began to move. They each took out a triangular flag and made a few strange movements, intersecting with each other in a few different positions.
On the originally desolate stone mountain, there was now a small hut. The stone hut was very small, but there was a staircase inside that led underground.
Tan Qingwei couldn't help but sigh and say, "True Monarch Skyfall is indeed talented. I didn't even see through this illusion array with a cultivator as the eye."
Skyfall laughed and said, "Don't make fun of me for such a small trick. If you didn't see through it, how would you know I arrived a bit earlier?"
Ancestor Tan Qingwei also laughed. Ye Kong couldn't help but sigh. These old fellows were all very cunning. Don't take their words seriously. Whether they were praising you or scolding you, they might all be lying.
Walking down the passage, they arrived at a very spacious stone room. This was already the belly of the mountain. This was something that Skyfall had ordered people to open up in advance. It wasn't difficult for cultivators to open up this kind of cave abode.
Skyfall smiled and said, "I had the disciples make it casually. It's a bit crude, please don't mind."
Yi Tong giggled and said, "We're all here to help Sect Master Ye, not to enjoy it. As long as it's useful, it's fine."
Ye Kong quickly said, "Not bad, it's already very good. True Monarch Skyfall is really thoughtful. Little Ye, I sincerely thank you."
Skyfall waved his hand and said, "I still have to thank you for giving me the full cultivation method at a reduced price. This is nothing. I actually hope that it will end soon so I can go back into closed door cultivation."
Tan Qinghuai said, "I also want to go back into closed door cultivation."
Yi Tong smiled and said, "Then everyone, let's get ready."
Walking into the largest stone room in the cave, the most eye-catching thing in the room was a large white jade coffin. The large coffin was stably placed in the middle of the stone room, it was a ghastly sight. They walked over and saw that the lid of the coffin was transparent. They could see a young woman lying quietly inside.
The woman's complexion was rosy, and her breathing was steady. Her delicate nose slightly flapped rhythmically. Although her big eyes were closed, one could see the trembling of her long eyelashes.
This was the body that Ye Kong and the others had chosen. It was somewhat similar to the original Huang Zixuan, which was also the reason why they had chosen her.
Ye Kong and Jiang Wuyi looked at each other for confirmation.
Actually, possession was not the most important part. The most important parts were all with Yi Tong. First of all, when Huang Zixuan's soul came to this world and was ready to be reincarnated, she had to put her three spiritual and seven physical souls into the Spirit Concentrating Chalcedony that Ye Kong found in Cangbei.
Because the memories of the three spiritual and seven physical souls had already been erased in the Underworld, when she put them in, Huang Zixuan's remaining soul in the Snow Soul Pearl had to be guided into the Spirit Concentrating Chalcedony.
Then, after a period of fusion, the soul and memories in the Spirit Concentrating Chalcedony would become one, becoming a complete Primordial Spirit.
Finally, the possession process would take place.
This underground room was only used for future condensation and possession. The three spiritual and seven physical souls that blocked Huang Zixuan still had to be outside.
So Yi Tong nodded and checked, then went outside and began to set up. Blocking the reincarnated soul from the Underworld was definitely an extraordinary divine ability. Yi Tong would not give it to others for free. So before she set it up, she got her Joyful Union Sect disciples to set up a maze first, then she entered alone to set it up.
Now, Ye Kong and the others had nothing to do, so they stood outside and chatted.
Ye Kong said, "This array is covered with array formations, but they are all maze arrays. There is no strong defensive array formation. If someone disturbs us at a critical moment, it will be bad."
"What strong array formation do we need?" Skyfall laughed and said, "Aren't the three of us great cultivators after Yuanying more powerful here than any array formation? Moreover, this is an uninhabited place. There are no ores or heavenly treasures, so there won't be any cultivators here. "
Tan Qingwei looked around, then shook his head and said, "Although this place is extremely barren and has no Spirit Qi or production, the more it is like this, the more likely there are evil cultivators and demon cultivators hiding. We'd better be careful."
Skyfall was slightly displeased. After saying this, he walked back to the stone room. "If you want to do it, do it yourself. I know that your Seven Stars Sect's array formation is strong, but you don't have to show off like this, right? Hmph! "
Tan Qingwei ignored him and called for her disciples to start setting up the array. He first flew into the air to check the terrain. He muttered something and did some calculations. Then, he came down and let the Foundation Establishment disciples get to work.
The array formation that Tan Qingwei was setting up at the moment was naturally not the kind that was temporarily set up with array discs and array flags. Instead, it was a more solid and formal array formation. The Foundation Establishment disciples found the position, leveled the ground, and then placed a disc-shaped array eye. The array eye was engraved with dense mysterious runes. In the center of the array eye, a thin pillar that looked like a wick extended out. The pillar head was slightly larger, and that was where the Spirit Stones were placed.
As Tan Qingwei set up the array formation, he said, "Sect Leader Ye, this array formation is called the Eight Gates Golden Light Array. It's relatively not too difficult to set up. You just need to find the right position and place the Seven Stars Sect's special array eye. You don't even need to recite those complicated incantations. Come, I'll teach you to recognize the position."
Ye Kong was stunned. He didn't expect that Tan Qingwei would be willing to teach him the Seven Stars Sect's array formation. Although it was just an array formation, since Tan Qingwei could take it out, it wouldn't be too trashy.
Therefore, Ye Kong and Jiang Wuyi followed and learned how to find the position and arrange the array eye. Ye Kong and the others were also smart people. After learning for a while, they understood how to find the position, set up the array eye, move the array eye, and determine the position.
However, Ye Kong understood why Tan Qingwei taught him this kind of array formation. It was because the array eye needed for this array formation was specially made by the Seven Stars Sect. If he wanted it, he would have to ask Tan Qingwei for some special array eye. At that time, the other party would probably start to talk about the conditions.
Ye Kong was a smart person and deliberately guarded against these old guys. However, sometimes being too smart would also cause one to suffer. Tan Qingwei taught him this mainly to thank him for selling the complete cultivation technique at a low price. As for the special array eye, Tan Qingwei only wanted to gain a favor. As long as Ye Kong asked for it, he would immediately give it to him.
However, the depressing thing was that after Ye Kong finished learning, he didn't say anything. Tan Qingwei couldn't possibly take the initiative to ask for it, right? Wouldn't that be too much of a waste?
"After this Eight Gates Golden Light Array is activated, a powerful metal-elemental defensive array formation will appear. Even a few Yuanying cultivators won't be able to break this array formation." As Tan Qingwei spoke, he pointed to the sky and said, "However, I left an empty door above because this is what Perfected Lord Yi Tong needs to use the Soul-Guiding Technique. At the same time, it's also the place where Huang Zixuan's soul entered, so this place can't be sealed. However, this is also the weakest link of the array formation. At night, the few of us will focus on defending this place."
While they were talking, Perfected Lord Yi Tong had already walked out and said with a smile, "It's still necessary to set up a defensive array formation. My Soul-Guiding Technique did cause a huge commotion. Those cultivators thought it was a sign of the birth of a numinous treasure."
After all the preparations were done, Tan Qingwei calculated again and said, "There are still six hours left. It's almost midnight when the Yin Qi is the strongest."
There was still a little time left. Everyone began to meditate cross-legged, waiting for that moment to arrive.
A few hours passed in the blink of an eye for cultivators. The sun set and the moon rose. The surroundings were silent. There were a few ancient trees that had been dead for who knew how many years. A full moon hung on the branches. It was already midnight.
Yi Tong stood up and took out the Snow Soul Pearl. She said, "You guys can bid farewell again. Although I'm still confident, I can't guarantee that something unexpected might happen."
Hearing Yi Tong's words, Jiang Wuyi's eyes instantly turned red. He walked to the front of the Snow Soul Pearl and looked at Huang Zixuan, who was inside. He didn't know what to say.
Instead, Huang Zixuan said, "Sister Wuyi, don't worry. I believe that Big Brother Ye's efforts and everyone's efforts won't go to waste … Even if something unexpected happens, don't blame Perfected Lord Yi Tong. I know that everyone has done their best for me … Also, Wuyi, you have to take good care of Big Brother Ye."
Huang Zixuan's last sentence felt like she was saying her last words. It made Jiang Wuyi's tears roll down.
Ye Kong patted Jiang Wuyi's shoulder forcefully. Then, he said to Huang Zixuan firmly, "Zixuan, don't worry. We will definitely succeed!"
Hearing his encouragement, Huang Zixuan's eyes lit up. "I believe in you!"
Then, Yi Tong said, "Alright, I'm going in. The soul summoning and initial fusion might take around six hours. Especially the first two hours. This is the most important time to attract the soul. We can't afford to be disturbed at all."
"Fellow Daoists, thank you. I can't thank Little Ye enough. When Zixuan is reborn, all of you will be indebted to her." Ye Kong hurriedly cupped his fists and bowed to the three of them. This was the most crucial moment. Although Ye Kong said it with determination, he was nervous in his heart.
Yi Tong nodded to everyone and warned, "The first two hours cannot be disturbed the most." With that, she turned around and walked into the illusion array. Then, she started to cast the spell.
"Everyone, spread out. No one is allowed to enter within a hundred miles." Tan Weiwei immediately ordered the Foundation Establishment Perfected Masters.
"But those few villages are within a hundred miles …" One of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators said hesitantly.
Skyfall scolded, "Then don't let them talk or move! Don't even let out a fart! "
The Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Seven Stars Sect and the Corpse Sect also hurriedly nodded. Only a few Seven Stars Sect disciples were left to control the Eight Gates Golden Light Array. The rest of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators all flew out and spread out to guard the array.
"I'll also go out and watch." Jiang Wuyi nodded to Ye Kong and also flew out.
Inside the array, Skyfall, Tan Weiwei, and Ye Kong sat down cross-legged, ready to guard against any mishaps.
