"Ah? Alright!"

Yun Tao was slightly taken aback but nodded gently.

Buzz!

A vast and boundless Great Dao pressure emerged, and a bright Great Dao Divine Light burst forth from Yun Tao, enveloping Jiang Chen.

He Tianwei's expression changed slightly, promptly withdrawing his presence.

He was confident Jiang Chen wouldn't discover him, but he wasn't sure Yun Tao wouldn't.

Buzz!

Just as Yun Tao wrapped Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen immediately emitted a strand of Divine Sense, probing towards the Pure Land Rock below.

Hmm?

Yun Tao was surprised, glanced at Jiang Chen, but said nothing.

Jiang Chen's original Soul Force was extraordinarily solid, but now that he had just broken through to the Divine Infant Realm, although his Divine Sense strength was stronger than other early or even mid Divine Infant Realm cultivators, it still couldn't escape Yun Tao and He Tianwei's notice.

This is... a formation?!

Jiang Chen's Divine Sense had just barely penetrated the Pure Land Rock before being blocked by the Great Dao aura contained within.

This was because the opportunities within the five great fortunate lands were generally gentle, otherwise, Jiang Chen's Divine Sense wouldn't have penetrated even a little.

Two formations, one's the eye of the Five Elements and Bagua Formation, the other is...

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, the other seemed to be a formation base combined with that of Qingmu Forest, is this... the Four Symbols Demon-Breaking Formation?!

After his Divine Sense penetrated the Pure Land Rock, an image of the Pure Land Rock appeared in Jiang Chen's mind.

Brilliant earthy yellow lights wandered to and fro within the Pure Land Rock, the deeper it went, the more resplendent the light became, and just as Jiang Chen's Divine Sense penetrated, a tremendous Great Dao pressure oppressed him. If it weren't for Jiang Chen having already condensed the Earth Path's origin Great Dao, and the Pure Land Rock's Great Dao aura being exceptionally gentle, his Divine Sense would have been obliterated!

Three inches below the surface of the Pure Land Rock, a mysterious fluctuation emerged, threads of energy like a spider web spread throughout the three inches of the Pure Land Rock!

This is a formation eye of the Protector's Great Formation!

And two inches below this formation, a subtle formation flickers indistinctly, its entire structure resembling a mysterious turtle!

Why is there a Four Symbols Demon-Breaking Formation here? This formation layout... it's neither a defensive array nor an offensive array, it's... an array-breaking technique?!

Breaking an array with another array, what array is being broken?

Jiang Chen felt a sudden shock in his heart, his mind vibrating intensely!

He took several deep breaths to calm his shock, maintaining a normal expression as he slowly opened his eyes: "Senior Brother, that's enough! Thank you!"

"Junior Brother, why be polite with me?"

Yun Tao grinned broadly, withdrawing the pressure and Great Dao Divine Light.

While looking at Yun Tao, Jiang Chen also caught a glimpse of He Tianwei out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing He Tianwei with his eyes closed, Jiang Chen's gaze toward Sun Yao carried a touch of gratitude and gravitas.

If it weren't for Sun Yao's reminder, he might not have noticed the Four Symbols Demon-Breaking Formation!

Sun Yao was slightly stunned, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.

What kind of look was that? Did Jiang Chen discover something?

Jiang Chen signaled to Sun Yao, glanced toward the direction of Jing Si Pavilion, and then toward the South Maniac Mountain before closing his eyes to continue cultivating.

South Maniac Mountain? And over there...

Sun Yao looked toward the direction of Jing Si Pavilion, but that was a vast area within the academy, he didn't know what Jiang Chen wanted to tell him.

After taking another glance at South Maniac Mountain, Sun Yao frowned and pondered.

Does Jiang Chen want me to go to South Maniac Mountain? What for?

Wait!

To go to South Maniac Mountain, I need an array talisman; does he want me to find the dean to get an array talisman and head to South Maniac Mountain...

No!

That look of gratitude and solemnity... could it be that he discovered something and wants me to call the dean to the South Maniac Mountain?!

Sun Yao's heart stirred, he looked at Jiang Chen, then glanced down at He Tianwei, who maintained a cultivating posture.

He Tianwei is monitoring Jiang Chen, surely there's something he doesn't want Jiang Chen to find out about, and Jiang Chen, being new to the academy and only at the early stage of Divine Infant Realm, wouldn't have the audacity to play tricks on me unless the situation was serious!

Whoosh!

After pondering for a while, Sun Yao's figure flashed, directly flying up and leaving Pure Land Mountain.

He Tianwei opened his eyes and glanced in the direction Sun Yao left, unconcerned, he continued to monitor the energy fluctuations around Jiang Chen with his eyes closed.

Jiang Chen felt a stir in his heart, knowing that Li Yao understood his intention, the corners of his mouth subtly hinted a smile.

He needed to wait a while before leaving, otherwise, it would arouse He Tianwei's suspicion, and meanwhile, he had to do something else. If He Tianwei wanted to monitor him, he would have to be mindful of all energy fluctuations around; but regarding formations, can he really handle it?

Jiang Chen glanced at He Tianwei, his eyes showing a taunting expression, then he closed his eyes and resumed cultivating.

...

South Maniac Mountain Peak.

"Dean Sun, didn't Jiang invite you here for a reason?"

Hu Yiqiu asked, puzzled, looking at Sun Yao.

At that time, Hu Yiqiu, Sun Yao, and Jian Cangqiong were seated around the stone table in the courtyard, having waited for three hours, the sun nearly setting, yet Jiang Chen had not arrived.

"Jiang Chen didn't say, at the time..."

Sun Yao recounted what had happened.

"Outrageous! That brat He Tianwei actually dared to attempt to interrupt Young Jiang's force condensation of the Great Dao?! He's courting death!"

Hu Yiqiu shouted angrily upon hearing this.

"Elder Wine, calm down, the main issue isn't this,"

Jian Cangqiong gestured with his hand, softly consoling.

"Jian Cangqiong, what do you mean? My disciple being interrupted from condensing the power of the Great Dao isn't important to you?"

Hu Yiqiu glared at Jian Cangqiong, not even addressing him as Dean.

Jian Cangqiong hesitated for a moment, smiling wryly: "No, Elder Wine, I didn't mean... Of course it's important to be interrupted during cultivation, but wasn't he not interrupted?"

"What? You were hoping Young Jiang would be interrupted in his cultivation?"

Hu Yiqiu's eyes showed a trace of anger, staring intently at Jian Cangqiong.

Jian Cangqiong opened his mouth, looking at Hu Yiqiu's angry face, utterly helpless.

Why does Elder Wine become so unreasonable when it comes to Jiang Chen?

Sun Yao turned his head to chuckle quietly, understanding Hu Yiqiu well; if he had such a gifted disciple, he would guard him closely as well.

"Elder Wine, my fault, I used the wrong words!"

Jian Cangqiong had no choice but to clasp his fists and apologize.

"Hmph, that's more like it!"

Hu Yiqiu snorted lightly, pouting his mouth: "The reason Lu Buping's sect monopolizes Pure Land Rock is nothing compared to Young Jiang's cultivation."

Jian Cangqiong was taken aback, giving Hu Yiqiu a sidelong glance; he knew what he meant!

"Master, I cannot agree with this!"

A cheerful voice sounded, Jiang Chen and Yun Tao leapt up from the mountain path.

"Greetings, Dean, Dean Sun!"

The two arrived at the stone table, bowing toward Jian Cangqiong and the others.
