Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 208: He answers every question honestly; he's such a good person!

Bai Yujing smiled confidently and said, "The Grandmaster stayed behind alone, presumably to try and extract information from me."

"Given the Grandmaster's status in the Qingyun Sect, even though Mu Zhuosha is known for his recklessness, he probably wouldn't put a Grandmaster in danger."

“I suspect that the Grandmaster discussed this with her beforehand. If we wanted to divide and conquer you, we would have Mu Zhuosha lure our people away, leaving the Grandmaster behind to lower our guard and make it easier to extract information from her.”

"The Grandmaster did this because he believed he had a powerful formation that would allow you, with your Qi Refining cultivation, to fight against Foundation Establishment cultivators."

"am I right?"

Zhou Qing said, "You've already said it all for me, so what else is there for me to say?"

Bai Yujing said, "That's why I advised the Grandmaster not to act rashly."

"Even if a Grandmaster has a powerful formation, he is no match for me."

"I do not wish to fight with a Grandmaster. If you are willing to come with me, we will certainly treat you with courtesy."

Zhou Qing said, "I'm afraid you wouldn't allow me to refuse."

Bai Yujing smiled and said, "Why must a Grandmaster force me to utter such harsh words?"

Zhou Qing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you, but I have one condition."

Bai Yujing asked, "Do you want me to let Qingyuan go?"

"That's no problem. As everyone knows, Qingyuan doesn't like cultivation and isn't good at fighting. We won't easily kill people who are harmless to us."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "You guys sound like nice people."

Bai Yujing said, "Of course, we just have different ideas, but we are not irreconcilable. Our friends in the Immortal Path have a great misunderstanding of us. Grandmasters will understand after spending more time with us."

Zhou Qing nodded and said, "I hope so."

He looked at Qingyuan and said, "You should leave on your own and find a place to hide."

Qingyuan nodded reluctantly, then suddenly remembered something and said, "What will you do if I leave?"

She pointed to the flying sword at her feet.

After Mu Zhuosha left, Zhou Qing was carried by Qingyuan's sword.

Bai Yujing smiled and said, "Miss Qingyuan, please rest assured, we will naturally take good care of the Grandmaster."

As he spoke, he released a flying sword and had Zhou Qing step onto it.

Qingyuan snorted coldly and said, "You don't need to be so polite to me, I won't appreciate it anyway."

After saying that, he flew away on his sword into the distance.

Once Qingyuan's figure disappeared, Bai Yujing smiled and said, "Grandmaster, please."

After saying that, he flew into the illusion array on his sword.

Upon entering the illusion array, Zhou Qing looked around and found everything shrouded in darkness, making it impossible to distinguish between reality and illusion.

"The formation is quite good."

Zhou Qing said.

Bai Yujing laughed and said, "I dare not embarrass myself in front of a Grandmaster. This Ten Directions Illusionary Realm is a great formation that my Seven Emotions Sect has accumulated over the generations, which is why it has such a powerful effect."

"Our Seven Emotions Sect's leader and the sect's array masters hold the Grandmaster in the highest esteem. If the Grandmaster were to grace our sect with his presence and offer guidance, we would be eternally grateful."

"The Seven Emotions Sect?"

Zhou Qingdao.

Bai Yujing nodded and said, "That is what you immortals call the demonic path." Zhou Qing smiled and said, "I never expected to be able to meet fellow Daoists of the demonic path today. It is truly an honor. May I ask what is the purpose of besieging the Longevity Sect?"

Bai Yujing said, "We have no enmity or grudge against the Longevity Sect. We just want to bring one of their Longevity Fruits to our sect."

“Several years ago, we asked for it with courtesy, but the Longevity Sect refused us outright. We had no choice but to come and collect it in person.”

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "They are demonic after all. If they want something, they will get it. If others don't give it to them, they will take it by force."

Bai Yujing glanced at Zhou Qing with surprise and said, "Grandmasters are rare masters in the world, why would they make such vulgar remarks?"

"The big oppress the small, the strong bully the weak, and the many control the few. This is true all over the world. We in the demonic path just never shy away from saying it."

"On the contrary, the so-called immortals do no different things from us, but they use all sorts of high-sounding words to decorate themselves. Aren't they countless times more despicable than us?"

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "You don't need to argue with me. If they have some embellishment, they are less unscrupulous. But you have no disguise, so you are extremely unscrupulous."

"Even though what they are doing is similar in nature, utterly unscrupulous, it is still seven-tenths worse than unscrupulousness."

Bai Yujing smiled and said, "We can seek common ground while reserving differences. However, we are determined to obtain the Longevity Fruit. If the Longevity Sect continues to resist, the entire sect will have to perish for a few fruits. I cannot bear to see such a thing happen."

"I heard that Grandmaster and True Man Qingmu are old friends. Why don't you persuade True Man Qingmu to hand over the fruit, and we will leave immediately without harming a single member of the Longevity Sect? Wouldn't it be better if everyone could live in peace?"

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "That's a good thing. Just take me to see Master Qingmu."

Bai Yujing smiled and said, "With a Grandmaster acting as our advocate, we can rest assured."

Bai Yujing flew inside on his sword, carrying Zhou Qing.

He was familiar with the path of the illusion array and could turn around in time at each node of the array.

Zhou Qing observed the operation of the formation without making a sound.

The essence of the formation was revealed without any concealment in his magnetic field perception.

Although he couldn't see the rune structure of the formation, it didn't matter. The essence of the runes was simply to stimulate spiritual energy fluctuations at a specific frequency.

He can directly analyze spiritual energy fluctuations, making runes secondary.

Based on each change in the formation, Zhou Qing analyzed the patterns of spiritual energy fluctuations. Although he could not completely understand the formation in a short time, he still gained a lot.

Even after Bai Yujing led him out of the illusion array, he was still somewhat reluctant to leave.

The Longevity Sect is just ahead.

The Longevity Sect is currently shrouded in a protective array, as if it were covered by a transparent eggshell.

Above the eggshell was a raging thundercloud, and at the center of the thundercloud was a vortex, as if it was about to devour the entire Longevity Sect.

Zhou Qing asked, "Are the thunderclouds above also part of your formation?"

Bai Yujing said arrogantly, "I taught you the Thunderstorm Formation. Does it still meet the standards of a Grandmaster?"

Zhou Qing nodded and said, "It's a very powerful formation, but why not use lightning to attack the Changsheng Sect's protective formation?"

"The Longevity Sect's formation is probably no match for such a massive force."

Bai Yujing figured that Zhou Qing had already fallen into their hands and had no chance of escaping. Moreover, he would need Zhou Qing to research formations for the sect in the future, so he did not hide anything from him.

He said, "To be honest, Grandmaster, my sect only has the ability to accumulate thunderclouds, but it cannot guide the thunderclouds to attack accurately."

"The energy of thunderclouds is too intense. Even the slightest interference requires a great deal of energy, and accurate control is even more difficult, beyond our capabilities."

"Therefore, our current teaching method is to use the thunderstorm array as a shielding formation. With the thunderstorm array in place, no one can transmit messages to the outside world, so we can deal with the people inside with peace of mind."
