Chapter 931

Ancient Teleportation Formation

“Where?”

Mu Yu extended to fingers he had triggered formations. “Right here.”

“Your hand?” Mu Yu hopped onto the window ledge then fiddled with Mu Yu’s hand. “I don’t see any.”

Mu Yu cheerfully caressed Xiaoshuai’s head. “I meant that I needed to draw the remaining three myself.”

“Oh! Who’s the one who came up with the idea? It’s not solving a riddle if you design the riddle! Blimming idiot.”

“It’s actually a deduction test. You need to have achieved a certain level of competence with formations to figure it out, so it’s a pretty safe method for hiding secrets.”

It took Mu Yu two hours to figure out what he had to do once he memorised the formation’s design. “I believe the answer to the riddle is filling in the gaps of the formation as the six formation seals are incomplete.”

Mu Yu went to the window to draw in twelve lines on the window ledge’s formation using his spiritual energy, making it shine white lights and morph into an eight trigrams diagram.

“It worked,” remarked Xiaoshuai, surprised.

Mu Yu then went to work on the remaining five seals, some demanding only one extra line, while another required a hundred and twenty lines. Once they were done, Mu Yu instinctively knew what to draw for the remaining three. Mu Yu moved aside the shelves in the way and carved the three formations in the air at specific locations as it required so.

“That was tiring. What sort of secret needs such a thorough protection system? That took me six hours to draw in spite of having memorised the three.”

“Maybe some delectable dish?” Xiaoshuai guessed, chilling at the window ledge and, of course, eating.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

“If that’s true, I’d like to throw these hands at him.”

“I will pass on all of the knowledge I attained from my research for you. How much you digest is your responsibility. Pill Cauldron Sects formation knowledge is a profound subject that’s different to what Formation-Talisman Sect’s formations. Formation-Talisman Sect’s formations cover all aspects. Having said that, the majority of their formations tend to be designed for offence. In contrast, Pill Cauldron sect’s formations concentrate on defence. Thus, you are looking at two different thinking concepts.”

It made sense owing to the fact that alchemists were not suited for battle and would not magically become experts at offence just because they had a formation. Instead of trying to strengthen a weakness that would be a weakness even with a boost, it was wiser to defend them so that they could utilise their strength.

While alchemists required an innate gift for the subject, remarkable memorisation skills and control over fire, formation casters needed strong comprehension and deduction skills.

Ku Mu stepped down from the teleportation formation, shrinking into a small shape hovering in the air. The formation shifted around to the front of Ku Mu and glowed, revealing the identical design to the formation in the cavern.

“Owing to alchemists denouncing formations and favouring the instant benefits obtained from pills, alchemists devoted themselves to alchemy. It was sad to witness. Since you’re here, it means you’ve picked up both sets of skills. You can have a pass.

“Ancient teleportation formations rely on natural energy. If you haven’t grasped natural energy, learn it and then come back here. Ancient teleportation formations are called void formations. Void formations derive their form from eight trigrams and will be the most complicated formations you will encounter. I don’t expect you to master it in one sitting. If you can’t keep up with me, you need to revise your formation knowledge. I’m not wasting my time on basics.”

“My goodness gracious. How do you expect any alchemist to learn with that temper of yours, Dad? I’ll bet my entire fortune none of them will ever grasp even the tip of the iceberg.”

Ku Mu ran his hand through the air, transforming the formation in front of him into a golden formation. “Having made it this far, you’re good enough to know a secret of the formation. Expect to be as shocked upon learning about it as I was when I first discovered it. This secret is the cornerstone of void formations.”
