Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Senior Brother Xia!"

Just as Xia Xihai was filled with worry, Yuan Tiangang and the others flew over from not far away. At this moment, they all had solemn expressions and did not seem to have let their guard down.

After all, Dai Qisi and the others' retreat was very sudden, and given that the Wusheng Sect has always acted without any rules, no one could say for sure whether they would launch a surprise attack!

"Fellow disciples, are you all alright?"

Quietly retracting the No-Life Annihilation Order from his hand, Xia Xihai tried his best to regain his composure before looking at the crowd.

At present, the elder brother Chu Tianhong has not yet returned, and the only thing he, as the vice dean, can do is to stabilize morale and maintain unity within Falling Star Academy in order to deal with future retaliation from the Wusheng Sect.

As for whether the Wusheng Church would suddenly launch a counterattack and whether it could protect the "Earth Tiger Star," a treasure left behind by its former founder, Xia Xihai, who was already overwhelmed with worries, couldn't care less and could only take it one step at a time!

"It's alright, but now that we've failed to seize Earth Tiger Star, I doubt that demonic witch from the Demonic Sect will let this go easily..."

Shaking his head, Yuan Tiangang spoke first, his tone still serious, "Senior Brother Xia, in my humble opinion, our most urgent task right now is to repair the seal of the Penglai Star Sealing Array, lest that demonic witch from the Demonic Sect come and cause trouble again..."

"Senior Brother Xia, what are your thoughts?"

After speaking, Yuan Tiangang glanced at Xia Xihai across from him again. He seemed to have also seen the grudges and entanglements between Xia Xihai and Dai Qisi, but due to their fellow disciples and their different statuses, he did not dare to point it out directly.

"Old Yuan is right. If we let Earth Tiger Star continue its rampage, I'm afraid we'll be finished before the Wusheng Sect even arrives..."

Beside him, Elder Yin Baili of the Punishment Hall stroked his long beard and said in a solemn tone, clearly feeling that the current situation was not good.

After all, Earth Tiger Star is a celestial body originating from the outer universe. Once it goes into a berserk state, it is no joke. It could destroy a city or several places in a matter of minutes, or even half a small country!

"What you all say makes sense, but the Penglai Sealing Star Array is severely damaged right now, and due to the invasion of the Wusheng Sect, the array's sealing power has been greatly reduced. With just the strength of a few of us, I'm afraid it will be difficult to completely repair it..."

In response to the suggestions from the crowd, Xia Xihai nodded slightly, but his expression remained solemn.

Because he has never delved deeply into the art of formations, and moreover, the Penglai Sealing Star Formation is not an ordinary formation, but a top-grade Xuan-level formation left behind by the ancestor, which is not something that ordinary people can control!

Therefore, this is one of the reasons why Xia Xihai is having a headache!

With his current strength and abilities, even with the help of Yuan Tiangang and others, he can only maintain the Penglai Sealing Star Formation for at most ten years!

To put it more simply, once the ten-year period is over, not only will the Penglai Star Sealing Array completely collapse, but the entire Starfall Secret Realm will also collapse. And when that time comes, no one will be able to control the Earth Tiger Star!

"Disciple Lu Feng greets Vice Dean Xia!"

Just as Xia Xihai and Yuan Tiangang were discussing how to repair the Penglai Sealing Star Array, a figure in gray robes flew over from afar and landed steadily in front of them. At this moment, a faint pallor appeared on his handsome face.

"Is that you, kid?"

Upon seeing that the person who came was Lu Feng, Xia Xihai was also taken aback for a moment, then raised his eyebrows slightly, "No need for formalities. I heard that you not only saved a group of East Courtyard disciples, but also single-handedly held off many Wusheng Sect experts, preventing these remnants of the demonic sect from succeeding in their conspiracy."

"Lu Feng, you did a great job. As expected of a disciple of our Falling Star Academy, you deserve a reward!"

"You're too kind, Vice Dean. I only offered my humble assistance; it's nothing."

Faced with Xia Xihai's praise, Lu Feng did not become arrogant or complacent, but simply bowed slightly.

Because what he said was indeed the truth. If Xia Xihai and the others hadn't arrived in time, with Lu Feng's strength, let alone blocking Dai Qisi and the Wusheng Sect army, he would have had a headache dealing with just one Beast Guardian Dragon!

"Hehe, Lu Feng, Senior Brother Xia has never liked to be polite. Besides, you have indeed made great contributions, so there's no need to be modest now."

Beside him, Yin Baili stroked his beard and chuckled, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes as he looked at Lu Feng.

After all, a cultivation prodigy with such extraordinary talent is rare even in the entire Yuanfeng Realm of the Eastern Xuan Region. Moreover, if Lu Feng hadn't taken action, Earth Tiger Star would probably have fallen into the hands of the Wusheng Sect before their reinforcements even arrived!

Therefore, when Xia Xihai decided to reward Lu Feng handsomely, Yin Baili himself did not have no objection at all; on the contrary, he strongly supported it!

"Good job, kid."

Stepping forward as well, Yuan Tiangang remained unsmiling, seemingly reluctant to offer Lu Feng's praise due to his status as Xu Tianlong's master.

"This disciple dares not accept such praise."

Faced with Yuan Tiangang's perfunctory praise, Lu Feng merely bowed politely, showing no concern whatsoever.

Because the other party still doesn't know that his precious disciple Xu Tianlong has defected to the Wusheng Sect and ultimately died at his hands, Lu Feng is not surprised by Yuan Tiangang's current attitude.

"Alright, Lu Feng, the elders and I still have some important matters to discuss. If you are not seriously injured, you may leave now."

With another wave of his hand, Xia Xihai spoke solemnly, seemingly unwilling to involve a junior disciple like Lu Feng.

After all, the Penglai Sealing Star Formation is a top-tier Xuan-grade formation, originating from the Penglai Pavilion, one of the three famous pavilions in the Eastern Xuan Region, which is beyond the reach of a junior disciple like Lu Feng.

"This disciple takes his leave!"

Seeing that Xia Xihai and the other elders all had serious expressions and furrowed brows, as if they had lost 50 million in the stock market, Lu Feng was a little curious, but he didn't say anything and quietly withdrew.

"Heh, young master Lu, are you really leaving? In my opinion, these mere Yuanhai Realm kids are unlikely to be able to fully repair the Penglai Star Sealing Array..."

The moment Lu Feng turned to leave, Gu Canyang's faint laughter slowly echoed from inside the Treasure Basin.

"ancient?"

Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, but before he could speak, Gu Canyang said in a low voice, "The Penglai Sealing Star Array originated from Penglai Pavilion, one of the three famous pavilions in the Eastern Xuan Region."

"Although this formation is not of high grade, only the top level of the Profound Rank, it is still beyond the reach of ordinary Yuanhai Realm martial artists. Moreover, those old fogies of Penglai Pavilion have always been stubborn and incorrigible, and basically never contact the outside world, let alone spread the formation..."

"Old man, what do you mean by that? I'm a little confused..."

Hearing this, Lu Feng became even more puzzled.

As Gu Canyang said, if the people of Penglai Pavilion basically do not have contact with the outside world and never pass on the formation, then how did the founder of Sunset Academy obtain this Penglai Sealing Star Formation? Could it be that the latter stole it?

"Hehe, although the probability of stealing something from those old fogies in Penglai Pavilion is not high, it is not impossible. After all, there is an old saying that goes, 'Even the most meticulous plans can have a loophole.'"

With another smile and a stroke of his beard, Gu Canyang spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Old Master, judging from what you're saying, these so-called Three Great Pavilions of the Eastern Xuan Region seem to all have quite a background...?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng's curiosity only intensified, and he immediately probed further.

After all, if Penglai Pavilion is already so powerful, and even a random formation that comes out of the pavilion can be regarded as a treasure by the founder of the former Sunset Academy, then the remaining two famous pavilions must also be extraordinary!

"If we look at the entire Eastern Xuan Region, that is indeed the case."

Faced with Lu Feng's curiosity, Gu Canyang did not keep him in suspense at all, and nodded immediately, saying, "The so-called three famous pavilions of the Eastern Xuan Region are nothing more than Penglai, Divine Weapon Pavilion, and the last one, Yinyuan Pavilion."

"Although these three sects specialize in different techniques, have different numbers of disciples, and have different rules, they are all, without exception, long-established, dominant forces in the Eastern Xuan Domain, and are not to be trifled with by ordinary people!"
