Lin Qiubai's doubts faded as the spirit of the Recording Gold Paper slowly emerged from the Void.
It resembled an infant, only the size of a fist. Its purple-gold thighs, arms, and face had a bit of baby fat.
It was hard to imagine that this was actually the spirit of the Recording Gold Paper.
Lin Qiubai had thought the spirit would be an old man, but it turned out to be beyond expectations.
However, that was not the main point; the key was to immediately bring the spirit under control.
Thus, Lin Qiubai gently coaxed it.
"Don't you want to return to the Recording Gold Paper? After ten thousand years, you must have missed it, right?"
The spirit showed a look of hesitation.
"Returning is not impossible, but..."
"But what?!"
Lin Qiubai's spirit jolted; from its tone, it seemed there was hope!
"But I was used by my previous master to seal the Corpse Demon King. Although my effectiveness is gradually diminishing now, it cannot be ignored. If I leave now, the Corpse Demon King will surely find it easier to break free from the seal."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qiubai's excitement vanished completely.
Isn't this just a polite refusal?
"However, I really want to leave this dark and dismal place. If you can set up three thousand special formations around me, then it would reinforce the seal on the Corpse Demon King and allow me to leave."
"Set up three thousand special formations..."
Lin Qiubai felt embarrassed.
He had no knowledge of formations at all.
To set up formations, one must first learn the basics. By the time he finished setting up three thousand formations, the Corpse Demon King would probably have already broken free and turned him into mush with a single slap.
But,
He was reluctant to give up the opportunity to upgrade the Record Character Gold Paper into the Record Character Heavenly Book.
That was the Record Character Heavenly Book, which, after acquiring a spirit, would know everything and understand the ancient! It would definitely be a powerful aid.
"I'm a novice when it comes to formations, and I don't know how to seal them, but I'm very eager to take you away, so no matter what, I have to give it my all. Just tell me what to do."
Lin Qiubai's gaze was firm.
"Alright, you belong to the formation path of Supreme Heavenly Dao. It will probably take about a year and a half to complete this task."
Ignoring Lin Qiubai's astonished expression, the spirit continued, "Sealing formations belong to the category of special formations. They rely on quantity for victory and require a massive amount of vital energy. The requirements for cultivation are not high; even someone at Origin Realm can manage."
The lower the realm, the more time it consumes.
Look at the Corpse Demon King behind me; sealing it required thirty million sealing formations. But you only need to sketch three thousand formations to achieve the same!
After saying this, the spirit of the artifact gathered a sphere of light at its fingertip and struck it into Lin Qiubai's forehead, entering his sea of consciousness.
This was the method for sketching the sealing formation. Lin Qiubai closed his eyes and memorized the steps.
For some reason, Lin Qiubai had an innate sensitivity to these complex lines and trajectories; after just one glance, he remembered them clearly.
"I'll give it a try."
Lin Qiubai raised his hand, and golden light emitted from his fingertip as he slowly drew a line in the void.
The spirit of the artifact's gaze sharpened.
"Truly remarkable for someone from the Supreme Heavenly Dao! Even a genius in formation would take ten days or more to sketch their first golden line upon first contact with formations. Yet, someone from the Supreme Heavenly Dao can learn it in an instant."
The spirit of the artifact had lived for tens of thousands of years; those years flowed by like water, leaving him as calm as an ancient well.
Nothing could shake his state of mind anymore.
Yet at this moment, he was still slightly surprised for a moment.
Special formations were ten times more difficult than entry-level formations. However, Lin Qiubai completed the sketch in just three minutes.
The speed was truly terrifying.
As the last line merged into the formation, a brilliant light illuminated the array, and a faint sealing aura spread out. Although it was very weak, the combination of three thousand sealing formations could likely make even the peak experts of the Creation Realm kneel.
If thirty million sealing formations were to combine organically, that sealing power would be enough to make even the Corpse Demon King call it "father."
Lin Qiubai couldn't help but feel a sense of longing.
"If I were to draw some formation plates whenever I have free time, would it mean that over time, I could reach the level of manipulating the heavens and earth?"
"In theory, yes. However, activating the formation plates requires a large amount of vital energy. With your current cultivation level, you might be killed before you can even activate them."
The spirit of the artifact poured cold water on his enthusiasm.
In actual combat, Lin Qiubai's opponents clearly wouldn't be foolish enough to wait for him to sketch out three thousand formations before charging at him...
Thus, whether the sealing formations could exert great power depended to some extent on the user's strength.
If it were a genius in formation from the peak of the Creation Realm, sketching out three thousand formations in an instant might still be feasible.
But Lin Qiubai was only at the Origin Realm; he would probably struggle to summon even a thousand formations before his body went cold!
"Then... let's discuss this matter further down the line."
Lin Qiubai suppressed his absurd thoughts and approached the spirit of the artifact, beginning to sketch out the sealing formation.
At first, the speed was not too fast, but after practicing a few times, Lin Qiubai could outline it perfectly even with his eyes closed.
One after another, sealing formations were flicked to the spirit of the artifact, which then combined them in a marvelous trajectory.
"I'm running low on internal energy."
Lin Qiubai suddenly stopped his movements, and the half-drawn golden formation slowly dissipated in the air.
"How many formations have you completed?"
"Three hundred. You spent an hour and a half; your speed is already quite impressive."
The spirit of the artifact replied with a strange expression.
Seeing the artifact spirit's odd demeanor, Lin Qiubai thought it was trying to 'comfort' him and sighed. He flipped his hand and took out 300 drops of Holy Essence. With a surge of suction from his palm, after several breaths, the internal energy that had been lacking became abundant again.
"Continue!"
Lin Qiubai said in a low voice, striving for the recording of the Heavenly Book.
After more than ten hours, as the morning sun hung high above the willow trees outside the gorge, Lin Qiubai finally let out a long breath and flicked out the last golden formation.
"Buzz..."
A gentle tremor spread throughout the gorge, and golden light flickered at the cave entrance, even spreading throughout the entire gorge.
Zhen Xian waited anxiously in the canyon, her beautiful eyes lighting up. After a long wait, she still did not see Lin Qiubai's figure. Her delicate nose wrinkled slightly, and her sensual lips pressed together, worry clearly written on her face.
"Why hasn't he come back yet?"
...
Below the canyon.
"These three thousand sealing formations are all of high quality; they seem to have subtly reinforced the seal. Not bad, not bad."
The spirit of the artifact was exceptionally excited, praising as it looked at Lin Qiubai with a hint of admiration.
Although it was knowledgeable about ancient times, this was its first encounter with the Supreme Heavenly Dao.
It was unexpectedly terrifying!
Following this master, the future seemed bright.
With this thought in mind, the spirit resolutely immersed itself in the recording paper.
The golden paper trembled as if the pages were being turned by a gentle breeze, producing a crisp sound.
Then the color of the golden paper gradually faded, and purple patterns began to grow along its edges. In an instant, the recording paper seemed to be exquisitely refined, instantly elevating its prestige.
The recording heavenly book entered its body.
“Mind Thought Communicate with me, and you can engage with me. If you have any doubts about your cultivation recently, feel free to come to me for answers. However, don't rely too much on me; many things should be thought through by yourself.”
Originally, Lin Qiubai had no questions, but after being provoked by the spirit tool, he suddenly recalled something.
“Ever since I began my cultivation, I have continuously encountered opponents who are hundreds of times stronger than I am.
For instance, during my external training, I encountered a Creation Realm Evil Cultivator, and later I was surrounded by an army led by a Nirvana Realm Evil Cultivator. The Evil Cultivators have already set their sights on me.
Now I have encountered the Corpse Demon King; it is evident that I have offended the Corpse Demon King as well… Why is this happening?”
The spirit tool pondered for a moment and then calmly replied:
“You are like a celestial insect that has defied the rules of heaven. Thus, the Three Thousand Ordinary Heavenly Laws and the Eight Hundred Supreme Heavenly Dao have sent down a hundred thousand Heavenly Tribulations to kill you. If you can evade them, you will achieve greatness; if not, you will perish. What is there to be confused about?”
Lin Qiubai suddenly understood, and Mind Thought became clear in an instant. In other words, the heavenly laws cannot bear to see him grow stronger. Therefore, he would face great tribulations in the future.
“Indeed, battling against others and against heaven is endlessly enjoyable.”
Lin Qiubai murmured to himself as he stood outside the sealing formation, staring intently at the cave entrance.
Suddenly, Lin Qiubai smiled; a bold and audacious idea sprang to mind!
