The First Venerable of All Paths

"Buzzing!"

Throughout the backyard of the stronghold, array patterns roared, and endless radiance converged from all directions, surrounding Fang Yue'er.

Gradually, Fang Yue'er's body floated up into the air.

Holding the array stone carvings in both hands, I let the array patterns seep into them.

However, even more special and pure energy emerged from the array stone carvings and seeped into Fang Yue'er's body.

"Buzz!"

The sky above the stronghold was already shrouded in countless array patterns, stretching out into the distance.

In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire secret realm.

"Boom!"

Thunder roared from the sky, shaking the land for miles around.

Within the secret realm, all the blood beasts seemed to have encountered their natural enemy, cowering in their lairs, trembling, their eyes filled with fear.

Only atop the highest mountain peak did a massive wolf king suddenly stand up.

Its blood-red fur danced wildly in the gale, releasing an aura of majesty and dominance.

The wolf king shook its head and suddenly let out a long howl that resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

"Awoo!"

The wolf howl transformed into ripples, sweeping outwards in all directions from the wolf king as the center.

The thunder that had struck for thousands of miles slowly dissipated.

Only endless array patterns and spiritual power transformed into two different forces, pouring into a certain direction.

Within the stronghold.

After all the strange phenomena disappeared, Fang Yue'er slowly landed on the ground.

Her face was full of confusion.

"Little Moon?"

Fang Rou called out carefully.

"Sister Xiaorou, what happened to me just now?"

Fang Yue'er seemed somewhat confused, completely unaware of what had happened.

"Are you... are you alright?"

Fang Rou's tone was full of concern, but she didn't immediately move closer: "Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

"I......."

Just as Fang Yue'er was about to speak, patterns suddenly appeared on her body.

These patterns are extremely similar to the martial veins of a martial artist, yet they are exactly the same as Zhenwen's.

It's like a combination of the two.

"Array Dao Martial Vein?"

Upon seeing this, Fang Xuan's face showed a look of surprise.

Fang Rou immediately asked, "Brother, what is a Array Dao Martial Vein?"

"This is the innate divine ability of a born array master. Under certain special circumstances, it can integrate martial veins and one's own talent into one."

Fang Xuan said, "Once this talent is born, whatever achievement is made in one area, the other area will also break through accordingly."

"Doesn't this mean that if Xiaoyue'er becomes a Divine Intent Realm expert, she can immediately become a Grandmaster of Array Formations?"

Fang Rou gasped in surprise, her face filled with shock.

"good."

Fang Xuan nodded and said, "Born array masters follow the path of using the Dao to assist arrays and using arrays to prove the Dao. They are extremely terrifying beings."

"Wow!"

Fang Rou looked on with envy and said, "Is Xiao Yue'er that amazing?"

It's more than just impressive.

A certain scene is recorded in Fang Xuan's inherited memories.

Empress Zhenxiao once encountered an enemy who was a born array master.

With a single thought, he used the Milky Way as an array to annihilate an ancient race.

At that time, Empress Zhenxiao had not yet become an emperor, so she could only suppress her in a deep abyss.

"Young Master, does that mean I've successfully opened my meridians?"

Hearing their conversation, Xiaoyue looked at Fang Xuan with anticipation, her voice a little nervous.

"good."

Fang Xuan chuckled and said, "From now on, you are a martial artist, and also a formation master."

"I succeeded?"

Fang Yue'er was so excited that she was almost incoherent, and her eyes were red.

"I really did it!"

Grandpa sacrificed everything to awaken his martial meridian.

She suffered greatly.

She thought she would never become a martial artist.

But after only half a day of entering the secret realm, he not only became a martial artist, but also a formation master.

"Yes, you succeeded."

Fang Xuan said, "Your grandfather will be proud of you, and the entire Fang family will be proud of you too."

Fang Xuan was the happiest when Fang Yue'er became a formation master.

In this way, even if he left Qingyang County.

Even if the Fang family encounters danger, Fang Yue'er can use the formation he left behind to deal with powerful enemies.

It can be said that Fang Yue'er was the last wall and the only protection for the Fang family.

Moreover, she is a born array master.

Their talent and potential are undoubtedly terrifying.

"Uh-huh."

Fang Yue'er said, "Thank you, young master. Without you, I would never have succeeded."

Fang family rules.

After the age of fifteen, if a member of the clan is not able to become a martial artist, he or she will begin to take over some clan affairs.

In the end, they could only do odd jobs for the family and become the lowest-ranking members.

And she was already fourteen years old.

"Brother, what level is Xiaoyue'er's martial vein?"

Fang Rou suddenly asked.

Fang Yue'er was also looking at Fang Xuan.

"Starting from the Heavenly Realm."

Fang Xuan said solemnly, "But you only need to know about this; you must not leak it out."

Upon hearing this, the two little girls nodded emphatically.

Before a Heavenly Rank Martial Vein is fully developed, it is easy for enemies to target it if they find out about it.

Fang Xuan was indirectly protecting Fang Yue'er.

"Oh, right, young master, here you go."

Fang Yue'er then realized that she was still holding the array stone carving in her hands. Her face flushed, and she planned to hand it over to Fang Xuan.

"This thing is destined for you, so keep it."

Fang Xuan could see the reluctance in Fang Yue'er's eyes and said, "Consider it a gift from me to celebrate your successful meridian opening."

"what?"

Fang Yue'er looked surprised, but still stubbornly shook her head: "But this thing is too valuable, I can't accept it."

"Just take it if I give it to you."

Fang Xuan smiled and said, "From now on, our Fang family will depend on you for protection."

"Yes, Little Moon."

Fang Rou also advised, "I just saw it. This stone slab automatically blocked most of the force for you, which proves that it has a special connection with you."

Fang Yue'er blurted out, "It's called the Heavenly Secret Array Plate, but it's been sealed."

"The Celestial Array Plate?"

Fang Xuan asked, "How did you know?"

"That's what it told me."

Fang Yue'er said, "Didn't you hear me?"

Fang Xuan's eyes sharpened, and he said in a deep voice, "Besides this, what else did you hear?"

"there is none left."

Fang Yue'er said somewhat embarrassedly, "It said I'm too weak and not qualified to know anything else."

"I see."

Fang Xuan said, "It seems this thing is indeed destined for you. You must keep it safe and don't lose it."

Fang Xuan guessed that this Heavenly Mystery Array Plate must be a treasure of some powerful array master.

Because of an accidental fall into Ye Village, the pearl has been hidden for many years, just waiting for a destined person.

Fang Yue'er successfully opened her Array Master Martial Vein thanks to this Heavenly Mystery Array Plate, which means she has received the inheritance of this Master Chen.

"Uh-huh."

Fang Yue'er hugged the Heavenly Mystery Array Plate as if it were a priceless treasure, and said excitedly, "Thank you, Young Master. I will definitely treat it well."

Even without Fang Xuan's reminder, she planned to carry the Heavenly Mystery Array Plate with her, whether eating or sleeping.

Because this thing seems to be able to help her cultivate and become stronger.

"Alright, that's about enough time for today."

Fang Xuan said, "You've just successfully opened your meridians, so go and rest well first. I'll arrange for someone to guide your martial arts cultivation."

Fang Xuan still valued Fang Yue'er highly.

It can be said.

In the entire Fang family, Fang Yue'er's future achievements will be second only to his and his younger sister Fang Rou.

"Brother, what about me?"

Fang Rou pouted, looking quite displeased, and said, "Little Yue'er has already successfully opened her meridians, when will it be my turn?"

"What's your hurry?"

Fang Xuan patted his little sister's head and said with a smile, "Rest for two days. I need to prepare some things to make sure you can open your meridians smoothly."

"I knew my brother was the best to me!"

Fang Rou cheered and pulled Fang Yue'er into the room to whisper to each other.

Seeing this, Fang Xuan waved his hand.

A black shadow suddenly appeared and knelt down in front of Fang Xuan.

"From now on, guard this little courtyard well."

Fang Xuan said calmly, "No one is allowed to set foot here without my order. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes, young master!"

The shadow quickly disappeared, hiding in a dark corner, guarding the courtyard.

Having the guards watch over this place is also to protect Xiaomei and Xiaoyue'er.

Fang Xuan even decided that the two of them should stay in the secret realm to cultivate as much as possible before they grew stronger.

Anyway, this is his territory, so it's safe enough.

After doing all this, Fang Xuan quietly left the stronghold and whistled in a certain direction.

"call!"

The next moment, a red lightning bolt roared in and struck Fang Xuan directly in front of him.

It was the wolf king that had refined the core of the secret realm.

"Looks like you didn't slack off while I was away."

Sensing the wolf king's aura, Fang Xuan patted the wolf king's head with satisfaction.

As the true master of the secret realm, the Wolf King grows rapidly.

In just two or three months, he had become a fourth-order wolf king, equivalent to the Qi Condensation Realm.

With the help of the power of the secret realm, one can fight against a powerful being at the Divine Realm.

The wolf king affectionately rubbed against Fang Xuan's palm, making a comfortable purring sound in its throat.

Fang Xuan flipped over and mounted the wolf king's back.

"Let's go, take me to see Red Scale."

Red Scales was the name of that giant python demon king.

The wolf king seemed somewhat hesitant.

"What's wrong?"

Fang Xuan laughed and said, "You and he don't get along?"

The wolf king let out a low growl.

"oh?"

Fang Xuan was somewhat surprised: "I didn't expect you guys to have fought a few times. Not bad, not bad."

The wolf king turned its head, looking at Fang Xuan with a wronged and puzzled expression.

"Don't be ungrateful, that's a genuine Demon Emperor."

Fang Xuan said, "Fighting with him frequently will greatly benefit your advancement to the Demon Emperor realm."

Upon hearing this, the wolf king's eyes lit up, and he transformed into a streak of crimson lightning once more, heading straight for the center of the secret realm.

A short while later.

The wolf king entered the center of the secret realm, but dared not approach the lake.

"Red Scale, come out and see me."

Fang Xuan sat on the wolf king's back, exhaled, and summoned the giant python demon king.

"Don't play dead, I know you're in there."

Seeing that Chi Lin did not respond, Fang Xuan's tone was slightly cold.

"Gurgle!"

The lake water churned, and a huge python's head emerged from the water, its terrifying aura spreading in all directions.

The wolf king was so frightened that it took a few steps back, tucked its tail between its legs, and roared a warning at the giant python demon king.

"You little wolf cub, you can't beat me, so you've come to call for help?"

Chi Lin sneered, and his heavy aura transformed into a whirlwind, sweeping towards Fang Xuan and the Wolf King.

The wolf king took a few steps back again.

"Have some self-respect, will you?"

Seeing the wolf king so cowardly, Fang Xuan said irritably, "You are the master of the secret realm, he can't do anything to you."

Upon hearing this, the Wolf King seemed to regain his courage, immediately straightened his back, and looked at Red Scales with a proud expression.

Chi Lin chuckled, raised half his body, stood in the lake, and looked down at Fang Xuan.

"Boy, what business do you have with me?"

Fang Xuan smiled calmly and said, "Chi Lin, you seem to have forgotten your identity."

"you......."

Chi Lin was about to retort when she saw runes appear in Fang Xuan's eyes. She immediately concealed her aura and said in an unfriendly tone, "Speak, what do you want me to do?"

"My sister is about to have her meridians opened, and she needs a drop of your essence blood."
