“Dad recorded natural energy in ‘Profound Formations’. Do you read or just skimp over?” Xiaoshuai chided, proving he comprehended ‘Profound Formations’ to a greater extent than Mu Yu.
“It only includes the tip of the iceberg in a sentence or two.”
“Third line of section six on page one thousand nine hundred and sixty-seven says, ‘All things can be used as formation foundations, including people.’”
“Your point? Greater Heaven Caster Lu told me the same thing! For that matter, Chen Tiandao mentioned the same thing!”
Evidently, Mu Yu let his unlimited supply of formation foundations dull his diligence, leading to him marginalising the necessity to learn to wield natural energy.
“The key in Dad’s teaching is ‘including people’.”
“Including people?”
Mu Yu discharged spiritual energy methodically, closing his eyes to focus on the spiritual energy. “Something I can’t see and is on par with my spiritual energy is being taken from my spiritual energy and transferred into the formation, reinforcing it. Is this natural energy?”
Mu Yu tapped a rock that floated past and noticed something abstract had been drained from it.
“The formation can turn anything that enters its vicinity into natural energy, we being no exception. It’s just that the impact is so subtle that it’s undetectable,” educated Xiaoshuai.
“We’ve also become natural energy. You can cast formations like this?”
Mu Yu tried deciphering the formation again, discovering that every living organism in the surroundings, even the destructive energy of the Heaven and Earth Barrier, were serving as formation foundations.
“You need to grasp the concept of natural energy for yourself. It’s abstract; fortunately, there’s plenty of natural energy in this formation, so it’ll be considerably easier for you to pick it up if you try grasping it here,” enlightened Xiaoshuai.
Mu Yu emptied his mind in search of the invisible and abstract energy, an unrestrained entity in its unprocessed state. He needed to get rid of his urge to consciously control, instead, going with the flow to trace back the source in order to utilise it for himself.
Xiaoshuai started a fire using a pill flame stone to grill drumsticks to kill time, tossing bones to the other side because it’d just erase the bones from existence. The dragon vine took a nap in the meantime.
The unrestrained energy in Mu Yu’s black and white spiritual energy started resonating delightfully, allowing him to usher natural energy to himself. Formation lines surfaced as an eight trigrams diagram and revolved at his feet. He commenced his trial, using the weak energy as a formation foundation for a simple Green Swallow Sound Stealer Formation. A swallow spawned. Nonetheless, it vanished once it left his hand.
“Strange.” Mu Yu’s successive attempts with other formations faced the same hurdle “Why is the natural energy I accumulated not adequate to sustain its movement?”
Mu Yu tried to catch the instant the natural energy he coalesced. Alas, he couldn’t seize the moment. “I don’t get this. I can’t use employ it even though I can sense it.”
Trying to learn the basics of natural energy from Feng Haochen’s convoluted formation wasn’t the wisest of methods. If Feng Haochen could’ve demonstrated a simple way to sustain the formation using natural energy, Mu Yu would’ve been able to fathom where the point of balance was.
“The onus is on you. If you can’t repair the formation, you, at least, need to cast a formation of your own to circumvent invaders from the other side and the size of the aperture expanding. I recommend casting a few lethal killing formations to scare them off,” expressed Xiaoshuai.
“I’ll just cast a Greater Heaven Stage version of Mirror Formation on the aperture. It’s just a pity that I won’t get to see their frustration.”
“You can also cast a Universe Usurper Killing Formation to puncture them full of holes and then zap them with lightning. Lightning is the ultimate counter to corpse water,” suggested Xiaoshuai, raising his brow several times.
“Shall we cast an apparition of you as a giant to frighten them?” Mu Yu asked, smirking.
“Why not?!” Xiaoshuai enthused.
Mu Yu cast his sword qi into the formation, and Xiaoshuai enthusiastically cast Heavenly Lightning Strike Sword Formation. As long as the formation foundation had enough energy, and the formation lines were stable, it was impossible to outmuscle one’s way through.
The dragon vine inquired, “Where to now?”
“Ghost Island. Well, we need to find out where it is first.”
“If it’s an island, it has to be near the ocean. Let’s start with checking if anything about the ocean is abnormal. We might be able to tail them,” responded Mu Yu.
Not long after Mu Yu and company left the valley, someone emerged from a scorching light in the enormous Heaven and Earth Barrier. The individual noticed something at the formation under the value and meandered over. He flicked a formation line along the formation and then entered the hole Chi Yue made.
“Xiaoshuai’s Heavenly Lightning Strike!”
Xiaoshuai’s apparition emerged and cut down with his lightning sword. The individual caught the sword with his bare hand, not even bating an eye.
“Sword Shadow Dust Gale’s sword spirit? Is Sword Shadow Dust Gale nearby?”
The individual did a lap around Mu Yu’s formation and walked straight in. “Lunar Race and Third Heaven Palace… Third Heaven will soon have a new ruler. You lose, Sword Shadow Dust Gale. Third Heaven is no longer yours!”
