Gathering Spirit and Nurturing Meridians
Wu Jingxue loved to fight, and he was an ambitious and ruthless character. If the Driftcloud Empire fell into his hands, even the Lingxiao Martial House would be swallowed up, and they would become his tool to conquer the other empires.
As the Palace Master of the Lingxiao Martial Palace, Hua Yunhe naturally didn't want things to develop to this point. From the very beginning, he had stood on the opposite side of Wu Jing Xue. He would rather die than submit.
Therefore, he wanted Chu Xingyun to join his side as well, so that they could work together to resist the enemy.
Chu Xingyun looked at the invitation in front of him and finally reached out to take it. He said calmly, "I will attend the banquet seven days from now. However, I don't want to submit to the Flowing Cloud Royal Family."
Buzz!
Hua Yunhe's mind froze. He felt as if his heart had been lifted, and his breathing became extremely difficult.
Chu Xingyun said neither hurriedly nor slowly, "I have no interest in the power struggle of the Royal Family. Whoever the throne belongs to has nothing to do with me. My goal is simple: to kill Wu Jing Xue and avenge the past. Therefore, I will attend the banquet, but I won't choose any side. I am who I am, and I won't submit to anyone, nor will I reject anyone."
Back then, the reason why Chu Xingyun didn't leave the Liuyun Dynasty was to investigate what had happened that year.
Right now, his goal was still clear: to kill the person who had attacked him and avenge the past.
Wu Jing Xue was one of the main culprits of that year. Chu Xingyun had to kill him no matter what, but at the same time, he didn't want to get involved in the power struggle of the Royal Family.
After all, in the near future, Chu Xingyun would leave the Liuyun Dynasty and go to the Ancient Star Sect, the Jiuhan Temple, and even the True Spirit Continent to find the opportunity to enter the Emperor realm.
Hearing these words, Hua Yunhe felt a sharp aura from Chu Xingyun's body. It was this aura that made him swallow back the words he was about to say and nod as if he had understood something.
When they left Numinous Sky Hall, night had already fallen.
Twinkling stars hung in the pitch-black night sky. The gentle moonlight enveloped the Lingxiao Martial Mansion and even the entire Imperial City. The entire space was filled with a sense of tranquility.
"Such a quiet night will soon cease to exist." Lin Tianchong landed beside Chu Xingyun. He raised his head and looked at the bright moon as he sighed.
Seeing Lin Tianchong like this, Chu Xingyun couldn't help but laugh. He also raised his head and stared at the night sky.
However, there was no emotion in Chu Xingyun's eyes. Instead, they flickered with a sharp glint. He had absolute confidence in the banquet seven days later, and the changes that would occur in the future.
…
Early in the morning, the sun rose.
When the first rays of the morning sun shone down, Qi Yun Peak was filled with hubbub.
Qiyun Peak was the highest peak in the Drifting Cloud Mountain Range. This peak was 33,000 feet tall, like an ancient pagoda that shook the heavens. It stood tall among the mountains and its peak pierced the clouds. It had the will to match the heavens.
On the proud peak of the mountain, there were pine trees with twisted roots and branches. Clouds and mist drifted in the air, giving off an ancient aura. If a person stood in front of this mountain, he would be like a speck of dust, insignificant and inconspicuous.
It was said that a thousand years ago, Qiyun Peak didn't exist in the Drifting Cloud Mountain Range.
At that time, there was a meteorite disaster. After the disaster, a peak that matched the heavens suddenly appeared in the center of the Drifting Cloud Mountain Range. This peak was Qiyun Peak.
The origin of Qitian Peak was quite mysterious. Chu Xingyun couldn't judge whether it was true or not, but he could clearly feel that the place where Qitian Peak was located, the spiritual power was as strong as a waterfall, and there was a strong aura that spurted out.
This aura was called Heavy Qi. It existed between heaven and earth and was indestructible. Even if there were endless disasters, it could be independent of the world. Because of this, after a thousand years, the Drifting Cloud Mountain Range had been completely annihilated, but Qiyun Peak still existed.
And this was the reason why Chu Xingyun chose Qiyun Peak.
At this time, there were countless figures in Qiyun Peak.
They were neatly divided into groups. Some were refining pills, some were building lofts and residences, and some were clearing out flat land. Each of them had their own duties, and each of them had a clear task.
At the top of Qiyun Peak, Chu Xingyun, Xue Dangkong, and the others were gathered.
"After a few days of work, we have more or less finished setting up the Formation Eye of the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array. However, with the current progress, I'm afraid it will be difficult to activate it." Xue Dangkong looked at the obscure array pattern in front of him and said helplessly.
The Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array was a Spirit Gathering Array. Although Chu Xingyun had simplified it and only kept 108 Formation Eyes, even so, it was comparable to a Sixth Level Spiritual Array.
Now, Xue Dangkong had finished setting up the Formation Eye. It had to be checked carefully and eliminated any flaws before it could be activated. Otherwise, everything would be in vain.
"Activate? Who said I'm going to activate the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array? " Chu Xingyun asked. Xue Dangkong was puzzled. He said impatiently, "If you don't want to activate the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array, then why did you ask me to work overnight?"
The day before yesterday, Chu Xingyun suddenly looked for Xue Dangkong and asked him to put down all his tasks and focus on setting up the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array.
When Xue Dangkong saw this, he thought that Chu Xingyun wanted to activate the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array, so he led people to work day and night. However, Chu Xingyun said that he had never thought of activating the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array.
This made Xue Dangkong not know whether to laugh or cry. His mind relaxed and he immediately felt a wave of exhaustion.
Seeing Xue Dangkong's appearance, Chu Xingyun laughed and took a few steps forward. "A few days ago, I heard you all say that you are preparing to build a Cultivation Ground in Qiyun Peak so that our Chamber of Commerce can cultivate at any time. I also feel that this is very necessary. Therefore, I have decided to build this Cultivation Ground at the Formation Eye of the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array."
Thump!
The crowd's hearts twitched. They had never seen or even heard of a cultivation ground being built at the heart of a Spiritual Array.
The Formation Eye was the core of the Spiritual Array. It was the foundation.
If the Cultivation Ground was built at the Formation Eye, it would definitely affect the normal operation of the Spiritual Array. Moreover, the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array had not been fully activated. Even if the Cultivation Ground was built, it would be useless.
Chu Xingyun saw the doubts in everyone's eyes. He did not say anything and walked straight to the center of the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array.
He looked around carefully and suddenly pulled out the Sky Slashing Sword. The tip of the sword pointed downwards and directly pierced into the ground.
Puff!
The sharp Sword Qi bloomed and on the ground, dense cracks immediately spread out. After Chu Xingyun pulled out the Sky Slashing Sword, his hands did not stop and began to form complicated hand seals.
In the end, he raised his hands high and directly slapped at the center of the Spiritual Array.
"Condense!" A muffled shout came from Chu Xingyun's mouth.
Suddenly, a rumbling sound could be heard.
Under the astonished gazes of Xue Dangkong and the others, with Chu Xingyun as the center, rays of Spiritual Energy bloomed and extended along the cracks. Finally, the 108 Formation Eyes were connected together.
Buzz!
In the void, a gust of wind suddenly rolled up. In the gust of wind, there was a trace of Spiritual Energy. It rose and moved with the wind, forming a shocking tornado and condensing above the Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array.
Moreover, with the continuous influx of Spiritual Energy, this tornado was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The wind was so loud that it seemed to cover the Drifting Cloud Mountain Range.
"The Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array has not been activated yet, but it has started to operate?" Xue Dangkong was stunned. This Roaming Dragon Spirit Condensation Array had the magical effect of gathering Spiritual Energy. At this moment, the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth in the Drifting Cloud Mountain Range was crazily gathering.
"Without being activated, it is impossible for the Spiritual Array to be activated. Just now, I only borrowed the power of the Sky Slashing Sword to penetrate the heart of Qi Yunfeng's mountain and form a Spiritual Energy Gathering Pattern to nurture the Spiritual Veins of Heaven and Earth."
Chu Xingyun wiped the sweat off his forehead. His tone was very casual, but it made Xue Dangkong and the others fall into a complete daze.
The vast space was completely silent.
