My Master Knows It All

Capítulo 1990: Chapter 431:

Upon learning how the Hundred Peaks Sect managed to fend off various hostile sects, he could hardly believe it and found it incomprehensible.

How could the Hundred Peaks Sect produce so many geniuses?

Was it truly because the sect had not seen the appearance of the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader recently?

He now also knew that the reason Cao Zhen became the leader of the Hundred Peaks Sect was due to his past deeds, and it was also known that in his previous life, Cao Zhen was a reborn great ability. Many even suspected that Cao Zhen had achieved the realm of a Golden Immortal!

Of course, aside from these peerless talents, the Hundred Peaks Sect also possessed numerous geniuses—far more than typical major sects. However, these geniuses were genuine, ordinary talents without displaying such terrifying combat capabilities.

Although the Hundred Peaks Sect had been sparring with the Extreme Formation Sect, even resulting in the Extreme Formation Sect losing quite a few resources to them in the past,

the upper echelons of both sects were able to maintain order. They even continuously monitored the sparring among the disciples, preventing any deterioration in relationships between the two sects. Some disciples even became friends, appreciating each other through the sparring.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed, and the injuries of the Chess Formation were almost healed.

Although he couldn’t return to his peak state, normal cultivation and life were no longer affected. He returned to his cave mansion.

However, shortly after he returned to his cave mansion, Immortal Lord Absolute-Formation came to find him.

“Senior Sister.” Upon seeing Immortal Lord Absolute-Formation approaching, Chess Formation immediately lowered his head, feeling guilty despite having apologized numerous times, he said, “It’s because of my incompetence that I brought shame to our Extreme Formation Sect.”

“Let’s not dwell on the past. A loss is a loss. Just focus on your cultivation and win back what you lost.

Today, I came to ask you another question regarding that day when Ling Xi fought against you and the opponent’s formation map.

The whole city witnessed your battle that day, and I always felt that Ling Xi’s formation map wasn’t just about restraining formations. I know your formation, and even a formation crafted in three days shouldn’t have been so weak.”

Immortal Lord Absolute-Formation wanted to ask this question the day the battle ended, but she couldn’t ask since her junior brother was heavily injured.

Later, she heard some rumors about the formation map used by Ling Xi but found them hard to believe. So, when her junior brother mostly recovered and returned to the cave mansion today, she came straight away to inquire.

“Senior Sister, you noticed it as well.” Chess Formation recalled the battle and expressed amazement, saying, “I felt that Ling Xi’s formation map not only restrained my formation but also my Yin Yang Qi. It seemed like everything within the formation map would be restrained.”

“Everything within the formation map being restrained, it indeed seems so. The rumors were true.” Immortal Lord Absolute-Formation showed a look of amazement.

Curious, Chess Formation asked, “Senior Sister, what do you mean by your words? What other rumors?”

“Actually, it’s not much of a secret; you just didn’t know because you were recovering.”

Immortal Lord Absolute-Formation sighed, “After your defeat, our disciples have continued sparring with those from the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Some disciples, perhaps due to losing too much in wagers, were still unconvinced during the sparring, claiming the Hundred Peaks Sect set them up, specifically using a formation map that restrained our Extreme Formation Sect’s abilities.

In response, the disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect argued that the formation map restrained anyone who entered, not just those from our sect.

Previously, Ling Xi had already used that formation map against many from the Eastern Province, and everyone who entered it was restrained.

The Hundred Peaks Sect focused on cultivating formations, but only a few pursued it. The rest didn’t know much, but as fellow cultivators of formations, you and I understand how immensely challenging it is to create a formation map that restrains everything within it.

In fact, within our Extreme Formation Sect, no one can craft such a formation map. Even the remarkable Immortal Lord of Picturesque Formations couldn’t achieve it in the past.

I saw one of his journals where he mentioned creating a formation map capable of restraining most powers in the world, but there was one power it couldn’t restrain. If he had found a way to restrain that power, he might have achieved the final step.

However, he never disclosed what that irresistible power was and didn’t leave the formation map behind, believing it to be imperfect. Later, he realized he couldn’t find a way to restrain that power.

So, he abandoned his research on that formation map and turned to study other formation crafting methods.

And in our Extreme Formation Sect, we also have great formations that can restrain anyone who enters them.

But it requires harnessing the power of heaven and earth, a true great formation of legitimacy.

Yet now, the people of the Hundred Peaks Sect managed to craft a formation map capable of restraining all who enter, which is terrifying!

That’s why I came to confirm it with you.”

Chess Formation noticed what his senior sister said later, with a look of surprise, he exclaimed, “Senior Sister, you said the formation map crafted by someone in the Hundred Peaks Sect, could it be that the formation map Ling Xi used was… crafted by someone from the Hundred Peaks Sect? Who crafted it?”
