Book 3: Chapter 18: Land Immortal's Goal

“The power of the celestial phenomenon?”

Bai Qiuran lowered his head slightly and thought for a moment, then took a map of Nine Provinces and Ten Lands from his arms and unfolded it on the table.

On the map, some places were marked with swirling symbols, and those were the places where the ancient city once appeared.

Without the sky chart, Bai Qiuran used his Qi as a pen to draw a star chart directly above the map from his own memory.

Li Jinyao also walked up, and the two quickly compared the position of the vortex on the map and the Qi astrological map in mid-air.

“No, it’s not astrology.”

Li Jinyao was disappointed.

“It seems I guessed wrong.”

“It’s okay, this is not something you can guess by chance once or twice.”

Bai Qiuran comforted:

“At least you have opened up ideas for us. Your ideas are correct. The technology of the ancient city may far exceed our conventional imagination.”

“Ok......”

At this time, Tang Ruowei, who had been staring at the map and did not speak, suddenly asked:

“Master, do you think there may be some special meaning in these places?”

“Huh?”

Bai Qiuran froze for a moment, saying:

“What do you mean?”

“In other words, didn’t you just say? This ancient city has technology that far exceeds us, so I thought, maybe it is not moving because it doesn’t have enough energy and must be moved by the power of heaven and earth, but because, for some other purpose, it must move to these locations...”

Tang Ruowei said:

“For example, a formation...”

Before she finished, Bai Qiuran and Li Jinyao have begun to use the Qi to outline various possible formation models on the map. The two moved as fast as lightning, but because of their experience and knowledge, they retain an extraordinary tacit understanding. Although they worked at the same time, not only they did not disrupt the other’s pace, but also complemented each other’s omissions in their thoughts.

Gradually, a formation appeared on the map, covering the entire Nine Provinces and Ten Lands.

“This is......”

Li Jinyao’s face dimmed.

“Ah, although the specific effect is not clear, looking at the composition of these runes and formations, this may be a way to awaken something.”

Bai Qiuran murmured:

“Wait a little while for me, I’m going to check.”

After he finished speaking, he stood up and ran out at a speed that Li Jinyao and Tang Ruowei couldn’t see clearly. He came to the place where the ancient city appeared the first time, which was located in the Dongling Kingdom.

Like other places, after the ancient city disappeared, there was also a vortex of aura that did not disperse.

Bai Qiuran walked around the vortex, suddenly pulled an iron sword from the storage bag, and split the air.

This time he completely focused the sword beam, and the white light on the blade almost condensed into substance. As the blade of the iron sword turned into iron sand, he also opened a black crack in the void.

Through the cracks, Bai Qiuran successfully saw the internal scene. Numerous spiritual energy was pouring in from the surroundings, and the mist on the other side of the space was gathered into a fog visible to the naked eye.

Someone has quietly opened another space in this place, it’s like a hole cut out in a flat piece of paper, and the surrounding spiritual energy was continuously flowing through the small crack into this space, formed a vortex of aura that would not dissipate.

“So it turns out to be this.”

Looking at this space, Bai Qiuran said to himself:

“I get it, everything is connected.”

He returned to the room. Li Jinyao and Tang Ruowei were still waiting here. When he saw him coming back thoughtfully, Tang Ruowei asked quickly:

“How is it? Master.”

Bai Qiuran recovered, reached out and rubbed Tang Ruowei’s head, saying:

“Thanks to you, now I know the goal of that ancient city.”

“What exactly is going on?”

Li Jinyao curiously said.

“It’s just my guess, but it’s very likely the truth.”

Bai Qiuran said:

“I went to the place where the ancient city first appeared to verify. The aura vortex there is actually a small space that was opened up. At the center of the vortex, there are some space cracks that are hard to see with the naked eye. Through these fissures, one after another, they continue to converge into another space. I think that should be the same in other places.”

“These things are the eyes of a formation?”

Li Jinyao glanced at the map.

“That makes sense. Using small spaces to make eyes of a formation, they may be able to create a formation that covers Nine Provinces and Ten Lands.”

“Yes, and the purpose of this formation is to wake up something.”

Bai Qiuran continued:

“I remember when Huangfu Feng and I saw that the stele was activated in the wilderness, the blue light emitted by it was densely scattered. At that time, I thought those signals were all going to this ancient city, but if each light spot represents a city similar to this ancient city, then...”

“Endless dark monsters of the Golden Core stage.”

Li Jinyao then replied:

“I still don’t know the upper limit of the number of transformations, but even if the number of monsters that an ancient city can carry is only as much as shown in the image, then their force far exceeds the number of cultivators in the league combined by the Righteous Alliance and the Evil Alliance. This is still not counting stronger monsters that have been transformed from cultivators.”

Bai Qiuran sighed:

“Call everyone, we should discuss the follow-up plan.”

............

The representative who united in Sky-Forging Castle was once again called together. Bai Qiuran told his guess to all the sects.

After listening to his explanations and deductions, the representatives began to contact their sect, and Elder Xu of the Mystery Academy hurriedly took the people to research the formation map created by Bai Qiuran and Li Jinyao to deduce where the ancient city would appear next time.

With the formation map, the progress of Mystery Academy suddenly improved a lot. In less than a day, Elder Xu marked the most likely place where the ancient city would appear next.

“Now it depends on whether the ancient city can verify our conjecture.”

Elder Xu said to the representatives present:

“But this is only the first step. We still don’t know whether this ancient city needs time to prepare for its appearance and disappearance. This directly relates to the success of our operations. Because according to their guesses, the ancient city is autonomous. It is powered by energy and then moved between spaces. At present, the space technology of our cultivation world is far from mature. Once it breaks away into other spaces, it is difficult for us to capture its traces. We need to explore its other data.”

“Leave it to me this time.”

Bai Qiuran said:

“Since I want to force it to run away, then I will go out and see what tricks it has.”
