Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 656 Entrustment_2

Therefore, although the Chief Elder was reluctant, he still had to bow his head and express his gratitude to Mr. Zhuang.

There was another reason: he wanted to preserve the foundation of the Five Elements Sect.

Outside the Five Elements Sect.

Blood banners obscured the sky, and a sea of blood was pervasive.

The demon sword was suspended high, with a murderous aura running rampant.

Moreover, there was a Mystery Demon Ancestor of the Feather Transformation Realm.

This was a dead end!

Despair filled the Chief Elderʼs heart.

He racked his brains in meditation, yet could find no way to break the deadlock. He could only pin his hopes on the unfathomable Mr. Zhuang.

He hoped Mr. Zhuang could show them a way to survival, a way for the disciples of the Five Elements Sect to live on.

However, after the numerous difficulties he had caused earlier, he was now too ashamed to speak.

It seemed Mr. Zhuang had seen through the Chief Elderʼs thoughts and said indifferently:

”I can save you.”

The Chief Elderʼs heart trembled, and his eyes showed hope, but he was also puzzled, ”You…”

Mr. Zhuang said, ”My disciple has inherited your legacy, which is a favor from your sect. The cycle of cause and effect, one act of kindness deserves another. I save you once, show you a way to live. Itʼs both settling karma and giving an account to the ancestors of the Five Elements Sect.”

The Chief Elder was overjoyed but felt an inner conflict, struggling to speak.

Mr. Zhuangʼs expression remained indifferent, and he said nothing more.

After a long hesitation, the Chief Elder, unable to let go, asked the question that had been plaguing him for a long time:

”Mr. Zhuang… exactly what inheritance from my Five Elements Sect has your disciple acquired?”

Mr. Zhuang smiled faintly, ”What do you think?”

The Chief Elder furrowed his brows, pondering:

”The Five Elements Spirit Formation… I fear itʼs not just that…”

”Even if you knew, what could you do?”

The Chief Elder was taken aback.

Mr. Zhuang shook his head, ”The Five Element Ultimate Formation, none of you could learn it. The other inheritances, even if attained, what use would they be to you?”

These words struck deep into the Chief Elderʼs heart.

But he had no power to refute them.

Over the years, the younger disciples, indulging in comfort and not striving for progress, it had been a long time since anyone could learn the Five Element Ultimate Formation.

The pearl was covered in dust – it was their own fault.

The Chief Elder sighed deeply.

Mr. Zhuangʼs gaze became intense as he added, ”Should my disciple, if proficient in Formations someday, wish to pass down this legacy, it could be given back to your Five Elements Sect!”

The Chief Elder was startled and asked earnestly:

”Gentleman, is that really your wish?”

Mr. Zhuang nodded, ”But there is one condition you must agree to.”

The Chief Elderʼs brow furrowed. He knew there was no such thing as a free lunch but since it concerned their legacy, he still said:

”Please speak, sir.”

Mr. Zhuang said in a serious tone, ”You must not mention my disciplesʼ affairs to anyone, especially… my youngest disciple.”

”Keep silent about the business of the Five Elements Sect, the legacy, and even the fact that he visited and you met him… Never speak of these again…”

The Chief Elder was stunned, ”This…”

Mr. Zhuang had a profound look in his eyes, his demeanor serious.

A chill went through the Chief Elderʼs heart, and he quickly understood that this seemingly trivial matter could be very significant.

”Agreed!”

The Chief Elder nodded solemnly.

Mr. Zhuang looked penetratingly at the Chief Elder, nodded slightly, and instructed:

”The Soul Refining Banner will be completed in two days, at which point a sea of blood will engulf heaven and earth, sealing off the whole of Li Mountain City.”

Mr. Zhuang opened up a map of Li Mountain City and lightly traced a line with his finger:

”Tomorrow at noon, all the elders and disciples of your Five Elements Sect should leave from the southwest corner along this line, and do not come back…”

The Chief Elder was slightly astonished, ”The Demon Sect would probably not let us off so easily…”

”That is not your concern.”

The Chief Elder nodded obediently but then expressed his reluctance, ”Then what about the foundation of my Five Elements Sect…”

Mr. Zhuangʼs look turned colder:

”If the Formation is standing and the people live, the Sect remains; if the Formation is lost and the people perish, the Sect perishes. These ruins are not the foundation. The true key is the people, the Formation is the foundation.”

The Chief Elder had a sudden revelation and said with a look of shame:

”Thank you for your guidance, sir.”

Mr. Zhuang nodded, his words coming to an end.

The Chief Elder then respectfully stood up, gave a deep bow to Mr. Zhuang, and left.

Mr. Zhuang then summoned Aunt Xue and three Disciples, saying:

”The Five Elements Sect will leave tomorrow. You should leave with them, but before you go, there are some matters I need to instruct.”

Mr. Zhuang left Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi behind, handing them two Jade Slips:

”These contain the complete Formation Diagrams of the Immortal Sky Formation Flow. Keep them safe, comprehend them well, and donʼt fail this legacy.”

”This is also something your mother kept in mind...”

”She was unable to learn it, so she yearned for it, hoping you two could master this supreme Formation Method Origin Stream…”

”As for other matters... you have your Clan and your motherʼs arrangements, so I suppose I need not worry too much.”

The two accepted the Jade Slips, both falling silent for a moment.

Bai Zisheng lowered his head, feeling somewhat ashamed.

After a brief hesitation, Bai Zixi spoke softly, ”Master, Iʼm sorry, mother, she…”

Mr. Zhuang just smiled faintly, ”That was the affair of the previous generation, it has nothing to do with you…”

He looked at the two children kindly, reassuringly:

”Your characters and talents are both quite good. The Immortal Sky Formation Flow was taught to you according to my own intentions, not merely because of your mother…”

Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi, with tears in their eyes, respectfully kowtowed three times to Mr. Zhuang.

Mr. Zhuang graciously accepted their gesture, and then sighed softly:

”In the future, take good care of yourselves.”

”And…”

”Take good care of your youngest disciple…”

”We will!” Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi both nodded solemnly.

Afterward, they left reluctantly.
