Chapter 17
The Construction of the Mountain-protecting Formation
Hearing Han Yue’s introduction, everyone couldn’t help but gasp.
“Is it really that amazing? I’ve never heard of such a body technique in the world.”
“Since the sect master has said so, that’s for sure. Does the sect master look like someone who brags?”
“D*mn, this cultivation technique is too awesome. I also want to learn that.”
“The condition is that you have to gift one hundred thousand night-luminescent pearls first.”
The disciples discussed animatedly with envy. Even the elders were envious. After all, who wouldn’t be tempted by such a top-notch cultivation technique?
After hearing Han Yue’s introduction, Ye Xuan’s eyes couldn’t help but light up. This was exactly what he needed the most right now. After all, he had to complete the missions and get a lot of prodigal points.
It was inevitable that it would attract the covetous eyes of people with ulterior motives. However, his cultivation level was not high. This kind of behavior was no different from a child holding gold and swaggering through the market. Robbing money would definitely be a common thing in the future.
With this cultivation technique, escaping was simply first-class. From now on, he could roam the world freely.
“My heartfelt thanks to sect master!”
Body techniques determined speed; mental cultivation methods determined spiritual will; breathing techniques determined physical strength; and cross-training determined defense. In addition, there were fist techniques, sword techniques, spear techniques, and so on.

Ye Xuan wasn’t in a hurry for the rest of the things, so he could put them aside for the time being. However, mental cultivation methods were more important, so he decided to ask Han Yue for advice if there was a chance in the future.
After the opening ceremony, Han Yue gathered everyone and the outstanding disciples together.
“There is one more important thing right now, and that is the formation of the mountain protection.”
The mountain-protecting formation was particularly important, as it concerned the dignity and face of the sect. Another important point was that Tai Qing Sect was established in Qixia mountain range. There were many demonic beasts nearby. The formation was necessary In order to ensure the safety of the disciples and prevent attacks from powerful demonic beasts.
Previously, Han Yue had only set up a simple formation, but it was not so simple to set the whole thing up. Not to mention covering the entire mountain, it also needed a strong ability to resist foreign enemies.
Not only it would take a lot of effort, but also the materials were enough to give people a headache. After all, it was a large amount. Even Xie Yixuan, who wanted to show off in front of Han Yue, did not dare to boast.
After a moment of silence, someone recommended himself, “Sect master, I’m quite knowledgeable about formations. If you don’t mind, you can leave the construction of the mountain-protecting formation to me.”
Han Yue looked at the person who came forward. It was the sixth elder. “I’ll leave this matter to the sixth elder then.”
“But I need to go to the site to investigate.”
Soon, under the sixth elder’s lead, everyone had walked around Tai Qing Sect. The others had no knowledge of formations. Even if they did, they only had a little understanding.
The ways of formations were extremely profound. The mainstream cultivation methods were sword techniques, spell techniques, fist techniques, and so on. There were also people like the sixth elder who cultivated formations, talismans, pills, or weapons refining.
At this moment, the sixth elder was holding a compass in his hand. It was very ancient in style, engraved with the heavenly stem and earthly branch, five elements and eight trigrams. The needle was slightly shaking, and it looked very exquisite.
Occasionally, they would see the sixth elder stop from time to time. He kept muttering and drawing, appearing quite mysterious. Although they were curious, they didn’t dare to ask, for fear of disturbing the sixth elder.
The sixth elder had almost gone through all the directions. Then, everyone followed him to a mountain peak. It was surrounded by clouds and mist, as if one could pick up the stars and the Moon with one’s hand. The scenery was very beautiful. Only then did the sixth elder put away the compass.
“I already have a basic understanding of the sect’s layout. This is the highest mountain peak, where I can have a better view of the entire mountain’s terrain and have a bird’s eye view of the entire situation.”
Everyone stood on the peak and looked into the distance. Just as the sixth elder said, the entire Tai Qing Sect was in their eyes. They felt like they were on the top of the mountain and looking down at the other small mountains.
“You can see that the entire direction of our Tai Qing Sect is from low to high, from the north to the south. The east and the west are flat and open. The overall direction is very good. It can be seen that the site was chosen with great care.”
As the saying went, “stand tall and see far”. Indeed, it could be seen that the trees grew low in the north and high in the south. Moreover, there was less vegetation in the east and the west. Most of them were flat.
“Moreover, Tai Qing Sect is located in an easterly direction from the center of the entire mountain range. The east is a good direction, which is an auspicious position. The Sun rises from the east, and good fortune comes from the direction. Therefore, the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in the mountain range is also gathered here.”
“This is also the reason why there are so many demonic beasts nearby. The stronger the demonic beasts are, the more they can sense the special spiritual energy in this place. Then, they will slowly come closer.”
After listening to the sixth elder’s story, everyone felt enlightened. As they went deeper, they found that there were indeed more powerful demon beasts in the east.
“It just so happens that we can borrow the strength of the spiritual energy here. As long as we find the center, we can draw the spiritual energy from Qixia mountain range for us to use to set up the formation. This will save us a lot of effort.”
“This plan is truly brilliant,” the crowd couldn’t help but praise.
Ye Xuan thought of the sixth elder suddenly bringing them here and thus he guessed, “Could this be the center that sixth elder was talking about?”
The sixth elder cast a look of approval, “Elder Ye is indeed intelligent and having high power of understanding. So this is where the eye of the entire formation is, and I will use it as the center.”
“In the five elements and eight trigrams, the east and the south here corresponds to rqian and kun. Take a look and see if there are any differences in the shape of the mountains in these two directions.”
Everyone looked in the direction the sixth elder was pointing at.
The mountain range there rose and fell, layer upon layer, extending for thousands of li into the distance. No one could tell what was the difference for a long time.
“Sixth elder, don’t try to be mysterious. Just tell us directly.”
