"Oh?"
Daoist Shangqing looked at Arhat Kongshan. "Master, have you found the star remains of the Canyang Star?"
Arhat Kongshan replied, "I didn't let you down."
As he spoke, he opened his sleeve, and a golden lotus floated out and flew in front of Daoist Shangqing.
The lotus bloomed, and a remnant light appeared in its center.
The light was not bright, and it could even be said to be extremely weak.
However, an extremely fierce and cold aura was emitted from it, as if it had survived the destruction of heaven and earth. It was an unparalleled sense of nirvana.
Daoist Shangqing only glanced at it, and then bowed to Arhat Kongshan in front of him.
"Thank you, Master."
He then bowed to Arhat Ding Lin and Perfected Xiangyuan. "Thank you, Master and Xiangyuan Tianzun."
"You flatter me. It's good that I can help." The monk and Daoist bowed at the same time.
Arhat Kongshan also put his palms together. "If that's the case, I wonder what you still need to set up the formation?"
Daoist Shangqing put away the remnant light. "Everything is ready, and the east wind has arrived. All the necessary items have been gathered."
Reverend Xiangyuan said, "Would it be possible for me to see your formation?"
Beside him, Arhat Ding Lin said slowly, "There is a crucial matter that needs to be informed of, Zhenren Li. Chang 'an City of the Yanhuang World has gained new strong reinforcements. One of them is the Taoist Taiqing Cultivation, and the other is the Taoist Yuqing Cultivation..."
Daoist Shangqing's expression did not change. He looked at Arhat Ding Lin quietly, and did not answer immediately.
Arhat Ding Lin continued, "One of them has an extremely powerful Daoist magic treasure, and the other has a mysterious Daoist spiritual object. Now, they may be gathered in Chang 'an City, and we urgently need your help. Perfected Xiangyuan wants everyone to familiarize themselves with each other first, so that we can cooperate with your formation."
Daoist Shangqing nodded gently. "That should be the case. I also have the same idea."
He had heard that Daoist Yuqing might have obtained a great opportunity, and had been on guard for a long time.
Arhat Ding Lin's words were polite, but it was not difficult to understand what he meant.
Although they needed Daoist Shangqing, if Daoist Shangqing wanted to fight against Taiqing and Yuqing, he also needed their help.
Daoist Shangqing did not object to this point of view.
However, Daoist Shangqing was much more flexible than Buddhism who was anxious for the Manjushri Relic and Taiyi Sect who was concerned about Daoist Duqing, Zhenren Shaoqing and the others who were trapped in Chang 'an.
He didn't have to fight to the death with Chang 'an.
If he was really forced into a corner, he could just run far away.
Even if he had to hide outside the Eastern Heaven.
His competition with Mr. Taiqing and Daoist Yu Qing was not about killing each other.
On the contrary, if he had to choose between life and death, unless it was absolutely necessary, he would rather the other two be safe.
Previously, he had needed to borrow the strength of the Buddhist League and Extreme Celestial Sect to gather the materials needed to set up the array.
Now that all the materials were gathered, Daoist Shangqing had a lot more leeway.
If it was really necessary, he would not feel the slightest psychological or moral burden to burn the bridge after crossing the river.
However, there were two things that he still cared about.
One of them was the fragment of the Immortals in Chang 'an City.
Although he had already snatched a piece from Lei Han's hands, if it was possible, naturally, the more the better.
Two of them was the Jiu Xiao Huan Pei in Mr. Taiqing's hands.
In his mind, this should have been the magic treasure that belonged to him.
Even without mentioning the special meaning of this magic treasure, just its power and wonder was an important factor in the balance between the three of them.
Previously, Daoist Shangqing was no match for Mr. Taiqing with this treasure in his hands.
Now that he could complete the formation, he could compete with Mr. Taiqing who had the Jiu Xiao Huan Pei.
If he did not have so many things to do previously, the first thing he would do after completing the formation would be to return to the Medicine Valley.
However, if Mr. Taiqing and Daoist Yu Qing were to join forces with Chang 'an, Daoist Shangqing would need help now.
Just like Arhat Dinglin, everyone needed each other now.
However, Daoist Shangqing could handle things more flexibly.
His expression was normal as his white Daoist robe fluttered in the void of the universe.
Thus, there were streaks of clear air that spread in all directions, enveloping the immeasurably vast universe.
Perfected Xiang Yuan's heart was slightly moved.
He saw the Star Skeleton of the Partial Sun still in front of Daoist Shangqing.
However, the other three magic treasures floated into the distance.
Perfected Xiang Yuan was a Daoist Celestial Lord of the sixteenth realm. His cultivation was extraordinary. The formation in front of him had just shown some clues, but he could already see the wonders within.
The Star Skeleton of the Partial Sun symbolized the sun of the Four Symbols.
The other three magic treasures corresponded to the Extreme Yin, Minor Yin, and Minor Yang.
However, instead of saying that these four magic treasures corresponded to the Four Symbols, it would be better to say that they were the antithesis of the Four Symbols. They symbolized the creation and destruction of the Four Symbols, giving birth to the ultimate destructive power.
Perfected Xiang Yuan pondered as he floated towards the Extreme Yin position, standing side by side with the magic treasures.
Upon seeing this, Arhat Kongshan and Arhat Dinglin were enlightened. They followed suit and ran towards the other two sides.
Two Daoists, two Buddhas, and four experts stood at the four corners of the formation, each occupying the position of the Four Symbols.
As the clear air rumbled, it became thicker and thicker. In the end, it was like a dense fog, enveloping the void of the universe in all directions.
The murderous aura filled the universe, devoid of all life.
A powerful array with a terrifying concept was erected in the universe.
Within the formation, faint sounds of Thunder could be heard. Colorful thunderbolts gathered, forming four high platforms. They stood in four directions, supporting Daoist Shangqing and the other three.
Sensing the condensed and powerful Shang Qing Heavenly Thunder, Perfected Xiang Yuan's expression turned solemn.
His Taiyi Sect cultivated the transformations of the Four Symbols of Daoism, returning to the Yin-Yang Taichi Sect.
The formation that suppressed the sect's fate was called the Four Symbols Creation Formation. It deduced the changes of the Desolate Era, its profundity boundless.
The formation that Mister Taiqing set up in the Medicine Valley was similar to the one that enveloped the world.
As for Daoist Shangqing's formation, it could be said to be the complete opposite.
If the Great Celestial Sect and Mister Taiqing's array formation were said to have come from nothing, then the array formation before him represented the annihilation of all things.
Mister Taiqing's formation still had potential to be unearthed. Based on the current situation, it was inferior to Taiyi Sect's Four Symbols Creation Formation.
However, Daoist Shangqing used the Four Great Formation Treasures to set up a formation that was much more powerful than the one that Shaoqing and the other three Heavenly Monarchs set up.
Perhaps only the Grandmaster of Taiyi Sect, Daofather Hong Qing, who was at the peak of the Grand Heavenly Realm, could set up the Four Symbols Creation Formation himself. Only then would there be hope of suppressing this formation.
However, the problem was that Daofather Hong Qing was at the seventeenth realm.
Daoist Shangqing was at the fifteenth realm.
With such a huge gap between their realms, Daoist Shangqing's attainments in formations were already showing signs of catching up to him.
Remembering that the other party was Li Shulou's Yi Qi San Qing, Perfected Xiang Yuan became even more silent.
"This formation is called the Four Symbols Immortal Slaying Formation. Please advise me, Heavenly Lord Xiangyuan and the two grandmasters," Daoist Shangqing said.
Arhat Ding Lin and Arhat Kongshan looked at each other and nodded.
Their hard work in helping the other party to collect the materials was not in vain. The final result was not disappointing.
In this way, as long as they could ensure Daoist Shangqing's participation in the battle, they would have another strong ally against Chang 'an …
"Zhenren Li, why don't you return to Ananda's Pure Land with me and the others? We can make a long-term plan and strive to defeat Chang 'an as soon as possible." Arhat Ding Lin said, "Bodhisattva is currently tied up with important matters and can't come to meet us. However, he has always hoped that Zhenren Li could be a guest."
Perfected Xiang Yuan said, "If Fellow Daoist Li doesn't mind, I would like to invite Grandmaster Xue and the others to come with us?"
The loss of the formation map of the Four Symbols Creation Formation was a disaster for Taiyi Sect.
However, Perfected Xiang Yuan was not the only Heavenly Lord here.
If they were to replace the two Buddhist masters, the power of the formation would definitely be enhanced.
Of course, this meant that they would be able to comprehend the mysteries of the Four Symbols Immortal Slaying Formation more.
In exchange, Perfected Xiang Yuan was already considering how to compensate Daoist Shangqing.
"I have heard of the great name of Ananda Bodhisattva for a long time. However, I have never had the chance to meet you. Today, I'll have to bother you," Daoist Shangqing said.
Arhat Ding Lin put his palms together and said, "Great, Zhenren has stopped the formation. Please follow me."
Daoist Shangqing nodded. Just as he was about to raise his hand, his expression suddenly changed.
His body shook violently on the spot.
The next moment, he turned into an illusion and quickly disappeared.
Perfected Xiang Yuan, Arhat Ding Lin, and Arhat Kongshan were all surprised. Then, their expressions all changed.
They clearly felt that the formation in front of them seemed to be closely connected with Daoist Shangqing. At this moment, it also shook and then disappeared on the spot!
Even they, who were in the formation, seemed to be under an irresistible force. They were related to the formation and were teleported together. They broke through the void and disappeared to an unknown place!
