Xuanjian: Jade True Sword Immortal, my Dao Wisdom keeps increasing.

Purple Smoke Gate, Reception Hall.

Upon hearing this, Kan Ziyu carefully examined Jiang Heqian and exclaimed with considerable surprise:

"Fellow Daoist wishes to have me repair the formation? Could you please describe the formation in detail?"

Seeing that the other party did not directly refuse, Jiang Heqian was overjoyed and introduced with a smile:

"That formation is called the Jade Court Guard Formation, a great formation passed down from my ancestors..."

In the reception hall, only Jiang Heqian's voice introducing the Jade Court Garrison Formation could be heard. Kan Ziyu listened quietly, seemingly lost in thought, while Wen Wu sipped his spiritual tea to himself.

After a moment, Jiang Heqian finished explaining the formation and said with a guilty expression:

"Fairy Kan, that's all I know about the Jade Court Garrison Formation. As for the formation bases and points you asked about, I really don't understand them."

Wen Ziyu was not annoyed by his words and did not take them to heart at all. She calmly replied:

"According to what Fellow Daoist Jiang just said, the Jade Court Garrison Formation uses jade stones and spiritual soil to mobilize the earth's veins to form an array. As for the array base and array points, I still need to inspect the site to confirm them."

Jiang Heqian didn't understand formations, but he understood the implication in Kan Ziyu's words that she was willing to help him repair the formation.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have said so much to someone like me who's a complete novice in formations.

He simply nodded in agreement.

Kan Ziyu turned to Wen Wu and reminded him:

"Senior brother, I'm going out with Fellow Daoist Jiang. Could you please keep an eye on the Qi gathering at Muzuo Peak for me?"

Wen Wu sipped his spiritual tea, hummed in agreement, and nodded.

In the blink of an eye, the two soared into the air, transforming into two streaks of light and hurtling towards the direction of Milin County.

Kan Ziyu, without making a sound, led Jiang Heqian to deliberately bypass Yufu County.

......

At this time, the brilliance of Taixu in Yufu County dissipated.

Emperor Mingyang was reincarnated in Jiangnan.

A divine decree arrived from the Northern Wu Guang Luo Xia, instructing all the immortal sects and families in Jiangnan to cooperate and avoid creating karmic consequences.

The reincarnation of Emperor Mingyang, he spent nine months cultivating Qi and three years building his foundation. He killed demonic cultivators, destroyed powerful families, and returned north to Luoxia Mountain.

Qingchi Zongyue Lake Peak.

The Elemental True Man, whose expression was not good, stared at Taixu in Yufu County until the colorful light completely faded. Only then did he use his divine power to land inside the peak and instruct Ning Wan beside him:

"The colorful light in the Taixu of Yufu County has dissipated, and the master has been reincarnated. He is most likely between Yufu County and Linhai County. Wan'er, have someone keep an eye on him and make sure he does not come into contact with him, so as not to cause any karmic consequences."

Ning Wan nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, sir, I understand."

This reincarnation of Emperor Mingyang was escorted by the Qingchi Sect and the Jinyu Sect, led by Jiangnan.

The Elemental Master and the Autumn Water Master are jointly in charge of this matter.

For five hundred years, Mingyang has been herding livestock on Luoxia Mountain, with the aim of discrediting the connection between Mingyang's position and Emperor Li Qianyuan of Wei.

Incidentally, by taking advantage of the pull of the True Lord's destiny, we will bring down the various hidden realms suspended in the void and reap a harvest.

The goal this time is to use Li Qianyuan's reincarnation to bring Dongli Cave Heaven into the present world.

The demonic calamity that erupted from the Mushroom Forest Plain all the way to the Northern Mountains was also part of a script prepared for this Emperor Mingyang, so that the lord could enjoy exorcising demons to his heart's content.

It's just a pity for the ordinary people in Jiangnan.

......

Jiang Heqian, who was flying towards Milin County on the wind, pretended not to know and used his magic to ask telepathically:

"Fellow Daoist Kan, why did we deliberately avoid Yufu County?"

Kan Ziyu remained silent for a long time before finally replying telepathically:

"I don't know the specific reason either, but my master warned us that we must not enter Yufu County for three years."

Jiang Heqian mentally calculated the time and thought to himself:

"It's time for Li Qianyuan to reincarnate. He's most dangerous before he reaches Foundation Establishment. No wonder all the immortal sects and families strictly forbade their disciples from contacting Emperor Mingyang three years before his reincarnation."

The Immortal Xia Guang, the leader of the Northern Immortal Path, suppressed Li Qianyuan along with his Mingyang Fruit Position in Xiashan, East Sea.

They were just waiting to wear Li Qianyuan down and seize the Bright Sun Heavenly Light, using it as a merit for their advancement to Golden Immortal.

Jiang Heqian felt a chill run down his spine at the thought, and quickly shook his head to stop overthinking.

The two fled in less than two days.

Yucheng Peak in Milin County then came into view for the two.

The two then circled the five immortal mountains and landed on the wind at the foot of Jade Peak.

Kan Ziyu frowned slightly as she looked at the ruins and asked:

"Upon examining the remaining foundation of this formation, I found that most of it has been completely destroyed. Repairing it would require a considerable amount of spirit stones. Do you truly wish to rebuild this formation, fellow Daoist?"

Jiang Heqian was silent for a moment, then after a moment's thought, he asked in a low voice, his voice lacking confidence:

"Fellow Daoist Kan, approximately how much will it cost to repair this formation?"

Kan Ziyu said calmly:

"Not counting the spiritual objects, the spirit stones needed just to repair the array base and array points will be at least three hundred."

Jiang Heqian was speechless upon hearing this. The spirit stones he obtained from robbing the Yu family market, plus those he plundered from the demonic cultivators, didn't even add up to two hundred.

This formation is burning through spirit stones! How can it cost so much just to repair a Foundation Establishment formation?

Seeing Jiang Heqian's expression change, Kan Ziyu understood what was going on and explained:

"This formation was originally built to protect the market, right? If you only want a Foundation Establishment formation to assist your cultivation, there's no need to repair this one. I can set up another formation for you without spending so many spirit stones."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Heqian's eyes lit up, and his face immediately broke into a wide smile as he said happily:

"Indeed, indeed, Fellow Daoist Kan is right. I only want a Foundation Establishment formation to protect and assist my cultivation; there's no need for such a large formation."

As a complete novice when it comes to formations, he was obsessed with repairing the original Jade Court Guard Formation, which led him astray.

It's not like we have to create a giant magic array that covers the entire area.

Having figured this out, Jiang Heqian rubbed his hands together and asked happily:

"So, Fairy Kan, how many spirit stones would you estimate needed to create a Foundation Establishment formation that can protect and assist my cultivation?"

Kan Ziyu calculated with her fingers, thought for a moment, and then said aloud:

"Fellow Daoist, if you are cultivating the Jade True Path and need to set up an array to assist your cultivation, you should use the foundation-building spiritual objects of the Jade True Path as the array base, supplemented with precious soil and female water. Apart from the spiritual objects, you only need one hundred and twenty spirit stones."

Hearing that it was over a hundred spirit stones, which was within his means, Jiang Heqian breathed a sigh of relief and explained with a slightly apologetic tone:

"I have spirit stones, but I don't have the necessary precious soil and female water spirit items on me. I'll have to exchange them for them."

Kan Ziyu was not surprised at all, and said as if she had expected it:

"My master is a master of formations. My Purple Smoke Sect possesses the common spiritual items needed to set up formations. As for Foundation Establishment level precious soil and female water spiritual items, my sect naturally has them as well. If you can provide spiritual items of equal value, I can exchange them with you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Heqian was overjoyed. He made a hand seal and took out all the spiritual items from his storage bag.

A dozen or so spiritual items for cultivating Qi.

The three Foundation Establishment spiritual items were a portion of Black Profound Gold seized from a demonic cultivator, a portion of Earthly Fiend Cold Spring, and a portion of Jiang Heqian's own Supreme Bright Profound Jade.

Upon seeing this, Kan Ziyu raised an eyebrow. She hadn't expected that Jiang Heqian, a mere rogue cultivator, could possess so many spiritual items; it was truly remarkable.
