The Way of The Dao

Chapter 216 Teleportation Formation

?"So, is this what you were looking for?"

Long Cheng asked after a long time of watching Ling Tian observe the strange circle formed by symbols.

Long Yuyin was there too.

The formation circle was somewhat large, capable of holding about 10 people on average. Its patterns were strange and bizarre, but Ling Tian knew that it was a natural formation arrangement, so they built the Mansion on top of this place to keep it guarded after listening to Long Cheng. Its boundaries and condition were completely deteriorated, almost unusable, showing itself as if it were a single natural arrangement of the stone floor.

"Something like that. Can you get me some materials?" Ling Tian asked Long Cheng while watching the teleportation arrangement.

Long Cheng nodded and left after Ling Tian gave him a list of materials.

"Master, can this be used to return to your world?" Long Yuyin stayed with Ling Tian and asked him curiously.

She was interested in the world where Ling Tian came from.

"Actually, no." Ling Tian disappointedly denied as he was corroborating the type of formation.

"So it doesn't work?"

"Yes, but its reach will be greatly reduced. We can' t travel very far... I even think it can only receive..."

Ling Tian was sure that this formation is low level and at most, it could only travel to another lower plane, a small world close to where they are. But he had a hint that this formation could only be used to return to this small world.

Long Cheng arrived soon after, with various materials such as metals of different sizes and unique qualities. Long Cheng left Ling Tian and Long Yuyin alone, while he went to attend to some things.

Ling Tian cut and melted some metals, combining them with the formation arrangement and reconnecting all their natural points and symbols.

"Can I help you with something, Master?" Long Yuyin asked as she watched Ling Tian arrange the materials and then connect them to the formation arrangement.

"Mmn. If you can, then help me by passing me the materials."

Ling Tian slowly asked her for the materials, while Long Yuyin gave him or kept the materials waiting for him to use them.

"Uhm!" Long Yuyin exclaimed in a very low voice as she felt Ling Tian's fingers when she handed him the things. Her cheeks blushed slightly, trying to hide it from Ling Tian as she quickly turned around to pick up the other materials. Although they had previously touched each other in training, that was all it was, the training... now they were alone, interacting as if they were a couple...

Ling Tian noticed this and secretly smiled. He had never seen the other arrogant side of Long Yuyin that caught his eye until now, but he still liked her.

Long Yuyin and Ling Tian continued to work for a while longer, before they finished completely.

Ling Tian stood in the middle of the teleportation circle.

"What are you doing, Master?" Long Yuyin approached but did not enter the formation circle. She was intrigued to see that Ling Tian sat in the middle of the circle.

"I will check the state of this."

Ling Tian closed his eyes and covered the formation circle using his spiritual sense.

'I hope I can activate it a little bit to insert my spiritual sense...' Ling Tian prayed inside, trying to combine his spiritual sense with the space connected to this natural formation array. His cultivation and spiritual energy were currently weak because of what he was trying to do, so he would need to force all his power to activate and feel the space connected in this formation.

Whooosh

The formation circle began to glow dimly with Ling Tian in the middle. Long Yuyin stood by and watched in amazement.

The space around the place began to wobble, like moving waves on the surface of the water. Long Cheng and Long Hong arrived quickly and were stunned by what they saw.

Ling Tian was sitting cross-legged, trying to cover and feel the channel connected to the void and space of this formation.

"Urgh!"

"Master!"

Ling Tian groaned in pain a few seconds later, completely worrying Long Yuyin. Long Cheng and Long Hong also looked at him with concern.

Long Yuyin wanted to come over to help Ling Tian but was afraid that she might cause him some trouble if she approached him.

"I am fine..." Ling Tian muttered weakly, relieving Long Yuyin a little.

More than 30 seconds later, the glow in the circle began to fade.

"Haaah."

Ling Tian gasped heavily while he tried to recover his breath. His forehead was sweaty.

"Master..."

Long Yuyin approached worried and without thinking, began to wipe the sweat drops from Ling Tian's forehead with a small towel she had.

"Haah, I'm fine... I just need to rest a little." Ling Tian spoke to her weakly.

'This completely consumed my energy... the place connected to the other space in the void seems to be obstructed and not only that, the space channel seems to be very unstable. This cannot be used to teleport me, I can only use it once to return to this world before it becomes unusable...' Ling Tian thought internally with distaste as he thought about all that had happened.

His spiritual sense was able to connect with the space passage to another lower plane, most likely a small world like the Divine Star continent.

This natural formation can only be used once before it is destroyed. Ling Tian could only use it to return to this place from another teleportation arrangement. He could not use it to leave this little world.

"Were you able to fix it?" Long Cheng asked after seeing that Ling Tian was relieved. He didn't know anything about this, but he understood that it was the way to travel to another world after what Ling Tian explained to him.

"Yes, but it can only be used to return here before it is destroyed."

Ling Tian pursed his lips of disappointment at this realization.

"So it can't be used to travel to your world?" Long Yuyin asked with some disappointment at understanding Ling Tian's words.

Ling Tian shook his head and said, "No, it can only be used for someone to return to this place. After that it would be destroyed and could not be used."

Ling Tian knew that this formation was thousands of years old, so it would be completely normal for it to be completely deteriorated.

Long Yuyin was somewhat saddened by Ling Tian's disillusioned look.

Ling Tian stood up and inserted a small metal plate in the middle: "In case something happens, this token could help me return to this place in the future." He decided to prevent and leave a mark on this teleportation formation in case he needed to return to this small world again if he had the need to do so.

"In any case if the same thing happens again, you have to let me know immediately. In case I am not there, you must notify Mengxin." Ling Tian said seriously to Long Cheng, reminding him about the time when space moved and shivered on the spot. If he wasn't there, Yun Mengxin could take over until he arrived. Ling Tian had complete confidence in his woman.

If someone had a lot of knowledge about the Law of Space and natural formations or teleportation arrangements, they could travel through the void and arrive at this place.

If a strong cultivator were to arrive at this place and manage to connect with this teleportation formation, it could cause problems in Star City.

"I understand." Long Cheng nodded in acknowledgement and then asked, "By the way, young Ling, do you have any way of giving those techniques you said to quickly increase the power of martial artists? It would be better if we started strengthening the martial artists to increase their strength against the demonic beasts."
