Mortals cultivate immortality, and their IQ is playing with their heartbeats

#884 - Arrogance

Hua Yuanshan had always been arrogant and accustomed to being fawned over, so Wang Baichuan didn't take it to heart. He led Li Chengfeng on a winding path, stopping and starting to admire the scenery along the way.

Meanwhile, during the flight, Li Chengfeng silently released two great blood shadows. Like wraiths, they moved through the void, once again sealing this place off with formations.

Li Chengfeng was secretly vigilant, ensuring that if any fighting broke out, the outside world wouldn't detect any movement.

After all, they were facing a master of formations this time, and any slight mistake could lead to exposure.

However, Li Chengfeng's heart was also filled with anticipation. If he succeeded in capturing Hua Yuanshan, he would not only reap a great reward but might even gain control over the entire formation operation in the Far North.

For him, this risk was worth taking.

Wang Baichuan was familiar with the area and quickly led Li Chengfeng to a cave dwelling hidden in a canyon.

Although the cave dwelling lacked a sense of grandeur, the layers upon layers of restrictions and formations were dazzling.

Even a powerhouse like Li Chengfeng would have found it difficult to discover the wonders of this place without an exceptionally strong spiritual sense.

Li Chengfeng's eyes were like torches, and he imprinted all the restrictions and formations at the fastest speed, preparing to study them slowly.

The formations and restrictions of the Yuchen Realm were vastly different from those of the Yanhuang Realm, taking completely different paths.

For Li Chengfeng, this was undoubtedly another opportunity to break through in the art of formations and restrictions.

He immersed himself in the ocean of formations, as if seeing his own figure constantly moving forward on this path.

As they approached, the other party slowly stepped out to greet them. It was an old man with a face as smooth as jade, with a hint of baby fat, dressed in spotless white clothes, with disheveled hair, exuding an ethereal and detached temperament.

Upon seeing Wang Baichuan, he curled his lips into a warm smile and said, "Fellow Daoist Baichuan, quickly take a seat. You and I must have a good discussion."

"Who is this native cultivator? Why did you bring him before me? If he's just your little follower or servant, you'd better send him away quickly, lest he tarnish my eyes."

In the old man's mind, the natives of the Yanhuang Realm were all ignorant and foolish people. They were like dogs, groveling and surrendering to the Evil Dragon Clan. He would never take such unprincipled and spineless people seriously.

Wang Baichuan quickly said, "Fellow Daoist Hua Yuanshan, please don't be angry."

"I brought him here for a reason."

With that, he got straight to the point, "I'm here this time to ask you to return a favor."

"Because I have a small formation problem that I need you to solve for me."

As he spoke, he took out an exquisite rune from his bosom and respectfully handed it to Hua Yuanshan, the master of formations.

Hua Yuanshan took the rune and examined it carefully. Instantly, his expression became wonderfully complex.

"No problem, what I owe you, I will naturally repay. Hahaha!"

He laughed heartily, secretly rejoicing in his heart.

He had originally thought that Wang Baichuan would use that favor to make an excessive request, but he never expected that the other party only wanted him to solve such a simple formation problem. Naturally, he readily agreed.

Hua Yuanshan began to concentrate on studying the rune. His eyes were like torches, as if he wanted to take in every detail of the rune.

This rune contained the unique rules of the Yanhuang Realm. If he could thoroughly study it, then he might be able to develop a brand new restriction.

Thereby minimizing the impact on all the cultivators who came here from the Yuchen Realm when resisting the suppression of the Heavenly Dao, and allowing them to exert their true power.

The fundamental purpose of the Yuchen Realm sending so many formation masters and laying down layers of formation restrictions was to study the suppression rules here in depth, in the hope of finding a way to break them, so that the cultivators of the Yuchen Realm could move unhindered on this land.

As the leading formation master in the Yuchen Realm, Hua Yuanshan played a pivotal role in this research.

At this time, the rune that Wang Baichuan handed him was simply a godsend, like timely rain.

It should be known that the power of the rules contained in this rune unexpectedly solved a problem that had been troubling him for a long time.

As long as he could decompose the power of the rules and utilize it, he would surely make a major breakthrough in reducing the rejection of the Heavenly Dao of this place to the cultivators of the Yuchen Realm.

Thinking of this, Hua Yuanshan's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his excitement was beyond words.

Smiling, he said, "Not bad, not bad, Fellow Daoist Baichuan, this time I really have to thank you!"

"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid it would have been really difficult for me to achieve anything on this issue."

"Give me a few days to study it carefully. If you want me to crack this rune now, I'm afraid it would be a bit difficult."

Wang Baichuan smiled and nodded, saying, "That's natural."

"By the way, I'd like to introduce you to a friend of mine."

As he spoke, he pointed to Li Chengfeng beside him and continued, "This guy is a puppet slave I carefully selected. I plan to experiment with some kind of secret technique on him."

"It's just a pity that I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand the power of the secret technique and explode to death. If that's the case, my plan will be ruined."

"Therefore, I would like to ask Fellow Daoist to cast a restriction to protect his soul, lest I fail in the process of casting the spell. Hahaha."

Upon hearing this, the formation master Hua Yuanshan nodded indifferently and said, "Don't worry, this is just a small matter. Why would Brother Baichuan have to make a trip in person? Just send a subordinate to notify me."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Chengfeng, this native cultivator, with a cold gaze, and said with a hint of unquestionable majesty, "Boy, it's your blessing to be valued by Fellow Daoist Baichuan and used as his experimental subject."

"Come, come, come, quickly come over and let me cast a restriction on you to save your little life."

"Otherwise, you really are in danger of dying."

Li Chengfeng walked over respectfully, with a flattering smile on his face, and said, "Lord Island Master, thank you very much for being willing to cast a restriction on me to save my life."

"Lord Baichuan has promised me that as long as this matter is successful, he will definitely give me great benefits in the future, allowing me to have the opportunity to advance to the Nascent Soul stage."

The formation master Hua Yuanshan laughed loudly, but he sneered in his heart.

In his opinion, these so-called promises were not even worth dog farts.

Perhaps this native would be tortured to death by the secret technique halfway, even if he really survived by luck.

Those high and mighty cultivators of the Yuchen Realm would never waste precious resources on these natives.

They were keeping those resources, thinking of sending more cultivators from the Yuchen Realm over.

However, Hua Yuanshan didn't say so, but put on a kind expression and said, "Hahaha, as long as you cooperate well, you will definitely get a lot of benefits in the future."
