Mortal: The Heavenly Spiritual Root that Begins from the Demonic Path

Seeing Yi Jue’s worried look after receiving a jade pendant, Xin Ruyin just looked at Yi Jue quietly with her beautiful eyes without answering.

"This is the Three Stars of the Sky Lance, which is another core of the Star Array. It focuses on killing and is deeply connected to the Big Dipper. It can even use the power of the Big Dipper to release it from here. It is the tip of the attack, so even though it is located on the periphery, it is still in the middle layer of the array."

However, after reading it, Yi Jue did not explain anything, but continued to explain this formation.

Xin Ruyin didn't say much when she heard this, but she felt a little relieved in her heart. At that moment just now, she couldn't help but feel reluctant, as if this beautiful time was about to end, but she herself might not have realized it.

"The three stars of the Heavenly Spear are responsible for killing, and the seven stars of the Big Dipper are even more fierce. This formation is arranged like this, with the Purple Star high in the back. This does not look like the arrangement of a formation plate, but rather like a variation based on the actual terrain position."

"You were previously known as the Lord of Tianshu Immortal City. Tianshu is the core of the Big Dipper. Have you already set up this formation?"

Xin Ruyin is indeed a person of great talent and kindness. Although she only had a general understanding of this formation, she was able to make a pretty accurate judgment based on speculation.

Of course, this is also because although this formation is extremely complicated, what Yi Jue drew on paper and explained is just one of the ways to arrange it. Although this method of arrangement also exerts the full power of the formation, it is naturally easier than studying all the variants of the formation.

Yi Jue smiled and said,
"There are three typical ways to arrange this great formation. One is to use Ziwei Star as the core, with the three stars of Tianqiang, Tianli and Sanshi in the middle, with civil and military harmony, and the stars on the periphery assisting. This is the most orthodox arrangement method, the most noble and precious, but it is more defensive than offensive."

"The other is to abandon Ziwei Star as the core, and focus on Qisha, Tanlang, and Pojun. Ziwei is in the middle, and the civil and military stars assist. It can be said that all the thirty-six stars are used to destroy the three stars, just to destroy all enemies to the greatest extent. There is more than enough killing, but if the attack fails for a long time, it is very easy for the stars to wither."

"My method is also a mainstream arrangement method. Although it is still based on the Purple Star, it fully releases the offensive power. The seven stars are connected and the three stars are poured out. It not only guarantees the absolute defense of the Purple Star, but also ensures that the offensive potential of the entire formation can be released to the greatest extent."

Yi Jue had studied this formation for a long time. It was one of the few formations in Huangquan Valley that could reach the fifth level. When he decided to rebuild his family business in Jiang Kingdom, the Soul-Devouring Ancestor gave this formation to Yi Jue. After comprehending it for a long time, Yi Jue chose this final method of arrangement.

Xin Ruyin listened to Yi Jue's explanation and immediately had a comprehensive understanding of the formation diagram in front of her. Looking at it again, a vast blueprint was outlined in Xin Ruyin's mind.

At this moment, she had to believe that Yi Jue's previous boast that he could invite a Nascent Soul cultivator to his aid was not false or boastful, but was real and could be done.

"This vast array can also incorporate many verification arrays. No wonder you were so amazed when you saw my design of integrating the Big Dipper Array with the Tiangang Big Dipper Array and connecting it with the Long Snake Array. I think it was for this array, right?"

Xin Ruyin pondered over it and felt that the positions of the three stars of Tianqiang were really wonderful. Combined with the Big Dipper behind them, they almost formed an isolated formation. But with Xuan Ge expanding the territory and Huben suppressing it from above, it not only stabilized the situation, but was also completely connected with the Big Dipper, forming a strong force that was unstoppable.

The two of them studied the various changes of the Three Stars of the Heavenly Spear for a whole day, and then dusk fell. This time, before Yi Jue had time to say the excuse that his cultivation was about to break through, Xin Ruyin said,

"It's getting late, please have mercy on me, sir."

Yi Jue looked at Xin Ruyin's initiative and with a wave of his sleeves, the formation diagram disappeared. Then he held Xin Ruyin in his arms and lifted her up by the waist. He did not use any escape technique, but just carried Xin Ruyin horizontally and walked into the bedroom.

Soon, a fierce battle broke out on the bed. When the moon rose high above the building, the noise slowly subsided, and then with a moan that resounded through the sky, everything returned to calm. That night, Yi Jue did not choose to meditate for the first time in a long time, but just hugged Xin Ruyin. Xin Ruyin also did not make a sound for a long time, as if she was recalling the madness just now.

After a long time, Xin Ruyin said,

"Are you leaving soon?"

Yi Jue nodded silently, then turned his head to look at Xin Ruyin who was holding his arm tightly beside him, and said softly,
"The war ahead is urgent. I have been delayed for a long time."

"However, after this battle, the situation should be stable for a long time."

Xin Ruyin nodded, then shook her head, and then there was a little mist in her eyes.

"Thank you for coming in and pulling me out when I was at my lowest point in my life."

"But I don't want you to leave. If you leave, I'm afraid I'll go back to the old days."

"I will go with you, wherever you go."

Yi Jue looked at the girl in front of him and shook his head. The hopeful light in Xin Ruyin's eyes dimmed little by little. Yi Jue just spoke,

"Thirty-six immortal cities are currently under construction, and the formation is already being set up, but the Three Stars of the Heavenly Spear are extremely important. I will take you there to help take a look."

"On the front line this time, the foundation builders are just cannon fodder. The Jindan cultivators are the main force. The Yuanying cultivators are all going to fight. If you go, I will be distracted."

Xin Ruyin looked at the man in front of her, listened to his plan, and was silent. She didn't know how to defend herself. She couldn't help but think,
"If I wasn't so smart as I usually show, I could pretend not to understand his concern and his arrogant request to live and die together."

"It's just ridiculous. Xin Ruyin, oh Xin Ruyin, how could the man in front of you be bound by you? The most core relationship between you two is the benefits that your array talent and your Dragon Roar Body bring to him."

Xin Ruyin clearly understood that after practicing dual cultivation time and time again, the shadow of Qi Yunxiao in her heart became fainter and fainter. Whether it was the influence of the Hehuan Sect's secret technique or the not-so-clear relationship between her and Qi Yunxiao, she gradually realized one thing.

The man in front of her not only took away her countless first times, but also slowly became an indelible shadow in her heart.

"Come back alive."

"I'll be waiting for you in Tianqiang Xiancheng. I've written down your formation diagram. I'll study it carefully there, and then give you what you want when you come back." (End of this chapter)
