It was not surprising that Yu Wuxia had never heard of the existence of Song Zhong, one of the Heavenly Dragon Sect's Ten Protectors, just as Gu Long was unaware that Yuxu Palace had a large number of high-ranking ordinary disciples. Song Zhong was undoubtedly a hidden strength of the Heavenly Dragon Sect. As for why Jin Ling came to Yuxu Palace to find Ye Huan, since Yu Wuxia mentioned it, Ye Huan took the opportunity to tell Yu Wuxia all about his dealings with Jin Ling, hoping to hear Yu Wuxia's opinion.
"You mean to say that Jin Ling, one of the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors, has a deal with you to eliminate all the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors except for her?"
Upon learning the ins and outs of the situation, Yu Wuxia did not find anything wrong with the transaction between Ye Huan and Jin Ling. In fact, if this deal could be successfully completed, it would be a tremendous boon for Yuxu Palace in its current struggle against the Heavenly Dragon Sect. The only thing that made Yu Wuxia uneasy was Jin Ling's sensitive identity. After all, being one of the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors herself, if Jin Ling had ulterior motives, it was very likely that it would not be Song Zhong who would perish in this transaction but rather Ye Huan and others.
Understanding what Yu Wuxia was worried about, Ye Huan nodded to affirm the authenticity of this deal and then said to Yu Wuxia, "Yes, I went to find Jin Ling once while you were still unconscious. From my interaction with her, I felt she wasn't lying because she not only didn't instruct me to do anything but instead asked me for suggestions..."
"She wants you to help her come up with ideas? From what you're saying, her ultimate goal is singular: to complete your transaction and eliminate all the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors except for Jin Ling! No wonder... no wonder you were so excited when you heard about the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation; it turns out you want to lure all the Heavenly Dragon Gate Protectors into the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation in Yuxu Palace and catch them off guard!"
Combining Ye Huan's earlier inquiries about formations and mechanisms, Yu Wuxia easily guessed Ye Huan's plan. However, what worried him was that Song Zhong and the other Heavenly Dragon Sect's Ten Protectors were not fools. Without a detailed and meticulous plan, it would be difficult to get them to willingly enter the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation.
'Should I discuss the details with Ye Huan?'
With a desire to talk over how to lure Song Zhong and the others into the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation, Yu Wuxia hesitated when he saw Ye Huan's confident expression. He decided it would be more appropriate to first take Ye Huan to see the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation. Otherwise, if they could not activate it again, any ideas they had would just be empty talk without any practical effect.
"Ye Huan, come on! I'll take you to see the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation!"
Without giving Ye Huan a chance to respond to his question, Yu Wuxia made his decision and quickly walked out of the room. At that moment, he hardly resembled an injured patient; he seemed more vibrant than even Ye Huan. As for Ye Huan, he did not waste any more time and quickly followed in Yu Wuxia's footsteps, eager to see what kind of place this Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation was that could even trap deities.
They moved swiftly until after about a minute or so when Yu Wuxia brought Ye Huan to a stop in the center of the square in front of Yuxu Palace's Main Hall. He turned to Ye Huan and said, "Here we are."
"Is this correct? Master, are you sure? Every time I come to Yuxu Palace, I have to pass through this square. Are you trying to tell me that the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation is located right here in this square?"
Staring at Yu Wuxia in surprise, Ye Huan, despite having spent no more than three months in Yuxu Palace, could confidently say he had walked back and forth across the square from the main entrance to the Main Hall at least dozens of times. Even if the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation had lost its supply of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, it was still a formation capable of trapping even immortals. Ye Huan felt he should have noticed something unusual, which made everything feel quite bizarre.
"Haha, Ye Huan, let me remind you that while the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation has an impressive ability to trap enemies, since it is the protective formation of Yuxu Palace, its primary function is to guard Yuxu Palace. Moreover, its coverage area is vast and divided into eight smaller formations. Naturally, you cannot see the entirety of the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation. The place we are standing is merely the entrance to the formation's core..."
A faint smile appeared on Yu Wuxia's face. He knew better than anyone how short Ye Huan's time in the world of Cultivators had been. However, it was precisely because of this that with Ye Huan's current cultivation level, he would undoubtedly become a rising star in the Cultivator realm. When that day came and Ye Huan became the Master of Yuxu Palace, it would usher in a brand new era for Yuxu Palace. Just thinking about it was enough to excite Yu Wuxia, the current Master.
Patiently explaining the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation and other types of formations in detail to Ye Huan, Yu Wuxia then slowly crouched down and lifted a piece of Azure Stone Slab beneath their feet. As he moved the Azure Stone Slab aside, a series of stone steps appeared before Ye Huan's eyes, covered in dust and seemingly leading into an unfathomable darkness below.
"Follow me! Don't you want to see the full view of the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation? If I remember correctly, the previous Master told me that at the end of these stone steps lies the core location of the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation, where there are also stone tablets recording details about it."
Turning to say this to Ye Huan without caring about his reaction, Yu Wuxia began descending the steps. At the same time, a glowing orb formed from gathered Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy appeared in his hand, presumably for illumination.
"It's so dark... and underground... why do I have an ominous feeling?"
Watching Yu Wuxia hold up the glowing orb as they descended further into darkness reminded Ye Huan of a tomb-raiding novel he had read in the twenty-first century. The scene before him felt no different from entering a grave; coupled with Yu Wuxia's white robes holding up the glowing orb, it resembled a White Impermanence walking along the Naihe Bridge.
Shaking his head to dispel this ominous feeling from his mind, Ye Huan scolded himself for becoming so timid and hurriedly followed behind Yu Wuxia as they ventured deeper down the stone steps.
Bang!
About thirty or forty seconds after Ye Huan and Yu Wuxia entered underground, neither of them expected that the Azure Stone Slab at the entrance would automatically close behind them. The entire square in front of Yuxu Palace's Main Hall seemed as if no one had ever been there…
