My Master Knows It All

The Treasure Immortal looked at each teammate’s inquiry and said helplessly, ”This is just the beginning. How could it be possible to tell if he can break the formation? Let’s wait and see.”

The Immortal Lord Yan Hua observed Sword Lord Qing Lian from the rear along the way, growing somewhat anxious upon discovering that the other party was always looking for a chance to leave.

This alien race must be planning to take action, which is why he’s so eager to go out. If he joins a team, what should I do? He’s only lacking one person. If I forcibly join, they won’t accept me, and even that alien claiming to be Sword Lord Qing Lian would surely be suspicious.

Fortunately, the teams that only needed one person did not accept Sword Lord Qing Lian until the current team.

From afar, Immortal Lord Yan Hua gazed at the three familiar figures within the team, showing a hint of confusion on her face. It was these three again. Before Immortal Lord Zong Zhen met me, he and Sword Lord Qing Lian had encountered these three individuals.

And now, Sword Lord Qing Lian somehow encountered these three people after wanting to go out. Where do such coincidences happen?

Should I continue observing for a while? If Cao Zhen hasn’t joined this team, maybe it’s fine, but if Cao Zhen really joins their team, there must be issues with these three, and they necessitate a thorough investigation.

Immortal Lord Yan Hua glanced at the formation map again. She is most proficient in the Painting Way, but she also has some research on formations, especially since Immortal Lord Zong Zhen once praised her for having a talent in formations, teaching her some formation ways.

Though she wasn’t within the formation map, she could see clearly that this formation map was not simple. At least for her, it would take three to five days to understand the map, let alone break it, which would require even more time.

This Sword Lord Qing Lian...

”Interesting... This time we might really have hope.” As the one managing the formation map, the Treasure Immortal could clearly see the progress of breaking the formation, slowly revealing a look of astonishment on her face, whispering, ”This Sword Lord Qing Lian indeed specializes in formations, and he’s already started breaking the formation, without any mistakes in his approach.

Even if he cannot break the formation within two hours, it will be enough to prove his formation mastery.”

The crowd around heard this and immediately showed joyful expressions.

”Oh? Is there hope?”

”Are we actually encountering a formation master?”

The Treasure Immortal nodded deeply and said, ”That’s right, indeed a formation master. Even if he can’t break the formation within two hours, as long as the time is nearly right, I think we can all invite him to join, after all, formation masters are not easy to find. Moreover, I feel he is very likely to break the formation within two hours.”

The smile on the faces of the surrounding crowd became increasingly evident, especially one cultivator wearing an all-black robe, with a pale complexion, looking at Demonic Lord Guang Yu, asking, ”Guang Yu Dao Companion, you knew this Sword Lord Qing Lian previously, what is his background?”

The most distinct difference between him and ordinary people is a pair of blood-red eyes, and his entire person exudes a strange, dark aura. Among these six people, four are demonic cultivators.

Demonic Lord Guang Yu heard and murmured, ”We only know that he is a loose cultivator. Although the time together wasn’t long, we know little about his identity. We met him on the way back to Sun Detritus City. He, like us, got separated from his team and was pursued by the alien race, and was eventually rescued by Immortal Lord Zong Zhen...”

Demonic Lord Guang Yu briefly recounted their encounter with Sword Lord Qing Lian and was just about to say something more when suddenly, in front of him, the formation map suddenly began to tremble.

”This is...”

”Is the formation map about to be broken?”

”He broke it. He really broke the formation map!”

”And in less than two hours.”

Cao Zhen felt that breaking the formation prematurely was too shocking, so after thinking about it, he decided to break the formation with half an incense stick’s time left until two hours, which seemed normal.

After breaking the formation map, he realized that the timing of his choice was indeed just right. Around, including Demonic Lord Guang Yu and the Treasure Immortal, all six people across were enthusiastically welcoming him, their faces full of delight but without that kind of shock.

”Qing Lian Dao Companion, you broke the formation map so quickly, your formation mastery is truly astounding.”

”This formation map is not an ordinary one. There were previously three Dao Companions attempting to crack it, the one who took the shortest time came from the Tricky Formation Demonic Sect, and it took one and a half hours to break the formation.”

”Yes, Dao Companion’s vitality feels so vibrant. At such a young age, Dao Companion has reached such a level. It’s truly astonishing. Moreover, Dao Companion is known as Sword Lord, and your expertise should be swordsmanship, right? Your formation skills being so impressive when it’s not your primary focus makes us already imagine how high-level your swordsmanship must be, even though we haven’t seen it yet.”

Everyone seemed not at all alike beings of the True Immortal Realm, one by one offering praise at will.

There’s no helping it, masters skilled in formations are indeed too hard to find.
