"What's that strange scheme you've come up with now?"
The spirit of the artifact raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Its master was never short of clever strategies. What others saw as a hopeless deadlock might completely turn around in his hands.
So when Lin Qiubai mentioned that it was uncertain who would die, the spirit felt a sense of anticipation, waiting for Lin Qiubai to slowly reveal his plan.
"I don't have a strategy. However, my trump card has successfully advanced..."
Lin Qiubai controlled the flying shuttle at high speed, occasionally releasing a couple of scrolls containing the legacy of the Gu Demon Ancestor. While fleeing, he continued speaking.
"With the way you seem indifferent to life and death, I thought you could take down that killer from the Second Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm. Turns out you're just as cowardly..."
The spirit couldn't help but retort.
Lin Qiubai pouted.
"Although the Gu Demon has reached the peak of the first stage and has a certain chance of a successful sneak attack, if it fails, I would only have one way to go—death. But..."
At this point, Lin Qiubai suddenly shifted his tone...
"The awakening of the Gu Demon has sparked a bold idea in me."
"What outrageous idea that would make both gods and men furious? Hurry up and tell me!"
The spirit of the artifact trembled with curiosity. That idea must be very interesting. However, Lin Qiubai wore a mysterious smile.
He focused intently on propelling the flying shuttle toward the distant flicker.
He casually uttered a phrase that made the spirit of the artifact anxious: "The secrets of heaven cannot be revealed..."
The spirit fell silent, fidgeting restlessly, but Lin Qiubai remained solely focused on his journey, not mentioning any strategies.
...
The flying shuttle soared through the air like a swift golden eagle, disappearing into the vast sea of sand.
At the edge of the Central Sand State, weathering was not yet significant, but the forces of nature were enough to create many bizarre terrains.
For example, the sprawling Stone Forest resembling Ghost City, or the endless great ravine...
Ahead lay a ravine. A river cascaded down like a white silk ribbon, and below in the gorge was lush greenery, filled with the sounds of birds and beasts, a sight to behold.
Of course, there were also mystical beasts lurking in the river, their blood-red eyes peering out, posing an extraordinary danger.
But for Lin Qiubai, the threat posed by these mystical beasts was far less than that of the relentless assassins pursuing him from behind.
After all, his special physique as a Beast Tamer of Supreme Heavenly Dao granted him a unique affinity with mystical beasts. So he boldly flew into the ravine without any hesitation.
After delving several thousand meters in, Lin Qiubai discarded his outer coat into the stream to create confusion and wandered around in the gorge until he finally found a natural cave and slipped inside.
"What are you doing hiding in here! If the assassins notice you, you'll be caught like a fish in a barrel, with no chance to escape!"
The spirit exclaimed in alarm.
Lin Qiubai was practically courting death! If he got blocked, it would be the end for him!
"I have my own clever plans. The demon's charm cannot conceal my aura. After it advances, it can temporarily shield itself from the Heavenly Dao's perception, so the assassin won't be able to find me for a while."
Lin Qiubai remained very calm.
He focused his mind inward, entering a special state of tranquility.
The trajectory of the concealment formation slowly emerged in the air, emitting faint gray lines that intertwined like threads.
Whoosh…
A small formation appeared at Lin Qiubai's fingertips, about the size of a baby's fist. The surrounding space became hazy, and as he extended his consciousness, it felt as if he was sweeping through an emptiness.
"Not bad, spirit tool. Do you have a concealment formation diagram that can shield against Second Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm experts?"
Concealment formations are not special formations; they require specific setups to function effectively. Unlike sealing formations, which can simply be stacked together, concealment formations must be arranged according to their diagrams to work. Otherwise, they are useless.
Using a mortal-level formation diagram to set up a concealment formation can block the perception of Origin Realm warriors.
If a spirit-level formation diagram is used, it can block the perception of Yuan Dan Realm experts.
However, there is an ancient saying in the cultivation world: "Opportunities may come once a month, mastering a Martial Art may take a year to achieve minor success, but studying formation diagrams requires lifelong dedication."
This means that while one might encounter opportunities monthly and learn a Martial Art within a year, mastering formation diagrams demands relentless study throughout one's life.
"Do you want to set up a spirit-level concealment formation diagram?"
The artifact spirit was quite skeptical. It did possess the most basic concealment diagram, but the difficulty of practicing the spirit-level formation diagram was extremely high.
Lin Qiubai wanting to make a last-minute effort was clearly a misguided idea.
"If you have it, study it for me; time is of the essence."
Seeing Lin Qiubai's persistent urging, the artifact spirit sighed and shook its head. Even with the Supreme Heavenly Dao formation, it couldn't be treated so lightly!
It concentrated a point of light at its fingertip and sent it into Lin Qiubai's mind.
"I've also given you the mortal-level concealment formation diagram. This is a gradual process; you can't build castles in the air. First, comprehend the mortal-level concealment formation..."
However, Lin Qiubai did not heed the artifact spirit's guidance and directly began to comprehend the spirit-level formation diagram.
After a stick of incense burned, his fingers began to move, and the basic concealment formations flew out from his fingertips, gathering in front of him.
"Master, I can barely hold on!"
Yao Wugu transmitted a message to Lin Qiubai.
Lin Qiubai suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes and shot out three hundred concealment formations in all directions. His internal energy surged as he firmly controlled the three hundred formations, arranging them according to the marvelous trajectory of the spirit-level formation diagram.
"Buzzing..."
The artifact spirit's pupils constricted sharply; it was astonishing how smoothly everything came together without any hindrance. The Supreme Heavenly Dao formation was indeed terrifying!
Incredibly fast!
From knowing nothing about formations to setting up the spirit-level formation diagram took just over an hour!
Moreover, without any fluff, the quality of the formation diagram is exceptionally high. This is truly impressive!
The spirit of the artifact was left speechless, unable to utter a word.
"Alright... no need to be shocked; there will be plenty more astonishing things in the future. With this formation set up, that Yuan Dan Realm expert should have a hard time finding me for quite a while, right?"
The spirit of the artifact nodded affirmatively. Although this was a relatively common formation diagram with no special features, it was arranged by Lin Qiubai, and its concealment ability was at least high enough to keep a Second Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm assassin in the dark.
"Since that's the case, I feel relieved."
Lin Qiubai closed his eyes again and began sketching the sealing formation.
"Is there a diagram for the sealing formation?"
"There is, but they are quite rare. Generally, special formation diagrams are highly sought after by martial artists and often lead to bloody conflicts. The formation that seals the Corpse Demon King has a diagram, which is why it is so formidable!"
The spirit of the artifact explained.
"Can you provide me with one?"
The spirit rolled its eyes.
"I don't have that kind; I only know about the most common formation diagrams. As for others, I'm not capable of that. You'll have to find them yourself."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qiubai stopped trying to pry information from the spirit and focused on sketching the sealing formation. He was already extremely proficient in sealing techniques and could easily conjure them with his eyes closed...
Time passed.
Qin Yuan searched high and low in the Rift Valley, ultimately feeling a severe headache.
Because Lin Qiubai's cunning far exceeded his imagination; he had actually lost track of him.
Losing track of a guy at the sixth level of the Origin Realm was simply embarrassing to admit.
However, along the way, he had obtained quite a bit of the Gu Demon Ancestor's Inheritance, which lifted Qin Yuan's spirits considerably.
"I am certain that this little fox is hiding within the Rift Valley. I will keep a watchful eye over the entire area! Let's see who can maintain their composure."
Qin Yuan's gaze was sharp as he quietly stood above the Rift Valley, waiting for three days.
Three days later, Lin Qiubai's aura suddenly appeared. Qin Yuan's expression changed dramatically as he leaped down, heading straight for Lin Qiubai.
"Are you going to seal him?"
The spirit of the artifact looked nervously into the distance; the Yuan Dan Realm assassin moved swiftly, reaching Lin Qiubai in just a moment.
"Come!"
Lin Qiubai provocatively extended his finger, his eyes seeming to look down on an ant, filled with utmost contempt.
