Everyone was taken aback when they heard the words, yet they still couldn't comprehend.

"Your Sect Hierarch, merely to help the major sects resist those sects from the Eastern Province, would teach them spells?"

"Isn't your Hundred Peaks Sect capable of resisting them? Is there really no issue with the security of your Hundred Peaks Sect? Why would your Sect Hierarch do that? The life or death of other sects doesn't really concern your Hundred Peaks Sect, does it?"

"How could it not? Those sects are part of our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, and our Sect Hierarch is the State Preceptor of our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, so naturally, he needs to maintain the peace of our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.

If you knew what our Sect Hierarch had done before, you wouldn't find it strange. Back then we..."

Jue Zhu began explaining from when the former Grand Preceptor started to slumber, recounting how their Hundred Peaks Sect Hierarch discovered the royal conspiracy of Praying Heaven, united the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty and Eastern Wasteland, resisted the attacks from East Breeze, and helped the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty fend off attacks from the Eastern Province Demon Sect.

All around, a group of disciples from the Extreme Formation Sect were filled with curiosity about the Hundred Peaks Sect Hierarch, listening attentively.

In the distance, Immortal Lord Jue Zhen listened to Jue Zhu's words, and couldn't help but shake her head slightly, as it's something she could never do, not only her, but no one she knows would be capable of doing such a thing.

However, this seems to be a good thing for her!

Immortal Lord Jue Zhen suddenly realized that since Cao Zhen could have his disciples pass on spells to people from other sects, he was clearly not a particularly sectarian person. So, is there a chance he could guide her on how to refine a Formation Map?

Although Cao Zhen was doing it for the stability of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty back then, now she was also within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, and even within the Hundred Peaks Sect, becoming stronger herself could also help guard the Hundred Peaks Sect's mountain gate.

With Cao Zhen not yet awakened, she could go check out Four Treasures Peak first.

Ruo Yun was quite swift, returning to the Hundred Peaks Sect on the same day.

The Eastern Wilderness Sect is a Great Teaching composed of various sects, and originally it's more challenging to manage than a standard Great Teaching.

So when agreeing to let other Great Teachings into their mountain gates, they were more concerned with whether the other Great Teachings were easier to get along with.

And whether it was the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Extreme Formation Sect inquiring, or Ruo Yun asking about the Azure Cloud Sect and Truth Seeking Sect, the answers they got were quite similar; the people from the Pure Moon Sect were not easy to get along with.

Upon receiving the answers, Star Lord Hao Yue quickly made a decision.

Choosing the Beast Riding Sect.

Afterwards, he left the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Meanwhile, Immortal Lord Jue Zhen began assisting the Sect Hierarch of the Extreme Formation Sect in setting up formations. Though she wanted to ask Ling Xi some questions about Formation Maps, she wasn't familiar with Ling Xi, and couldn't directly run over to ask about other people's Formation Maps.

Moreover, since others were helping her, she should also contribute something. Just as the Sect Hierarch of the Extreme Formation Sect was arranging formations, she went to lend a hand.

Unexpectedly, after seeing them setting up formations, Bei Yan from Four Treasures Peak also came over, showing great interest in the formations they arranged.

Upon noticing this, Immortal Lord Jue Zhen called Bei Yan over and proactively imparted some formation knowledge to him.

Although she specialized in Formation Maps, the way of formations also has commonalities; otherwise, their Supreme Elder wouldn't have continually guided her towards mastering orthodox formations.

Teaching Bei Yan was initially a gesture of goodwill, but she discovered that Bei Yan had an exceptional talent for formations, and many of Bei Yan's understandings of formations were novel and different from theirs.

Further inquiries revealed that only a small portion of Bei Yan's formation knowledge was taught by Cao Zhen, while most of it was self-comprehended by Bei Yan.

Because of Bei Yan, Immortal Lord Jue Zhen slowly became familiar with the people of Four Treasures Peak, including Ling Xi.

"Ling Xi, can your Formation Map actually restrain everyone who enters it?"

At the mountaintop of Four Treasures Peak, Immortal Lord Jue Zhen looked at Ling Xi with full curiosity.

Ling Xi didn't think much about it, nodded slightly upon hearing the question, then had a recollection and shook her head: "I can't say it restrains everyone who enters. There is a certain force that can't be restrained."

"A force? What kind of force?" Immortal Lord Jue Zhen was instantly startled, recalling the records of predecessors in Formation Maps she had seen before. The Formation Maps crafted by those predecessors also had a force that couldn't be restrained.

So, do Ling Xi's Formation Maps share similarities with those crafted by predecessors of Formation Maps? Is the unrestrainable force the same one in both?

"That kind of force..." Ling Xi hesitated for a moment, then decided to explain, "It's Chaos Qi."

Her master possessed Chaos Qi, and indeed, when her master entered the Formation Map, it couldn't be restrained.

She felt this wasn't much of a mysterious secret; the most wondrous and ancient aura under the sky was Chaos Qi. If there's a force that can't be restrained, Chaos Qi would easily come to mind. Besides, she didn't worry too much; after all, those who possess Chaos Qi are exceedingly rare in the world.

"Chaos Qi!"

Immortal Lord Jue Zhen's eyes widened drastically, not expecting it to be Chaos Qi, as she hadn't considered that possibility whatsoever. Chaos Qi, the most ancient aura between heaven and earth, is rumored to be the progenitor of all auras as it evolved.
