Dual Cultivation God Returns

Chapter 538 Three acitivities

He took out a Spatial Ring and gave it to Temple Master Qi.

"Inside are focus points and array disks for a Grand Formation, much better than the one you had before, as well as instructions on where to put each one.

As soon as all instructions are in place, the Formation will activate on its own, but you have to be careful not to mess up the sequence of steps in the instructions"

He casually spoke as the Temple Master as well as the Grand Elders widened their eyes looking at him. It took weeks for a Formation Master to simply investigate the Feng Shui and surroundings, and months to actually produce the array discs and focus points.

But seeing as he had means beyond what was considered possible for them, Temple Master Qi received the ring with reverence and quickly gave out instructions while they moved to the top of the Sun Pagoda Tower they were having a meeting on before.

Though this time he was seated at an honor seat the furthest away from the entrance, while the others sat on both sides.

They discussed further plans while the Sect was busy setting up the Grand Formation, and by the time they were finished...

*Buzz!!* *Rumble!*

A small jade was put on an Array Disc, and then a talisman was burnt in the air above it.

The whole Sect slightly shuddered as rays of yellowish light beamed into the skies, the clouds above moving in profound flows while brightly shining stars appeared within the beams, connecting to each other with slightly thinner rays.

Array circles appeared in the skies around the beams and then a giant dome of light covered the entire island.

'Heh, truly, she is amazing...'

Wu Long thought as his eyes reflected the glow of the powerful Formation.

This Formation was something Lian Zhiqiu made, and with the jade and communication talisman at the end, it connected to the Grand Formation within the Yin Yang Unity Palace which also automatically jumpstarted it, activating this formation without The Great Seductress needing to do anything at all.

The three formations, in the Yin Yang Unity Palace, in the mansion of the Fantian Kingdom, and now here in the Brilliant Sun Temple formed a link that connected and strengthened all of them, using the link to establish a resonance between the Spiritual Lands of the two Sects.

And while linked Formations was not a novel concept in the Seven Boundless Worlds, it was the first Formation of its kind on the Third Continents ever since the Great Calamity, and still a spectacular sight to behold, not to mention that she did not have a teacher who taught her that, meaning that in a way she invented it on her own.

By her own words, the inspiration for it was the Dual Extremes Infinite Union Art.

Wu Long bid farewells to the members of the Brilliant Sun Temple, and returned to the mansion, which was in the exactly same state he left it at, with Ye Ling entering seclusion as he was now in the mansion.

Since his ladies were cultivating, Wu Long had time to train Old Yen, who temporarily returned to the mansion for the occasion, and Butler Bang.

General Feng and his son also came to train every day now, which put quite a strain on his mental state, as the "Haha! Junior! You have yet to know the immensity of Heaven and Earth!" resounding as the father was sparring with his son while "Heh! Respectfully, Father! River runs East a mile, river runs West a mile, you never know when the tide will turn!" came back in reply.

His only relief was in three activities.

A morning tea with Yu Huan during which he helped her with her alchemy skills and gave her more knowledge that she absorbed like a sponge.

Another was an occasional late evening with Madam Liang, as they drank wine by the pond.

The last was evenings in the company of two Princesses, one Imperial Princess of the Azure Eagle Empire, and another Royal Princess of the Tingren Kingdom.

And although Gong Liwei was also not in the cultivation chamber, and had no companion since her little sister was cultivating, she likely felt slightly intimidated staying in the company of two royal heirs, so she mostly stayed by herself.

Occasionally, they were joined by the icy fairy of the Frozen Garden Palace, but she was mostly spending her time diligently learning control of her physique, in which she made quite a lot of progress already, but not enough to unshackle her mind of the barrier of ice that froze her emotions and desires.

"Um, if it is her Soul that is frozen, perhaps I could...?"

Princess Cai Yin, who now already regained a completely healthy appearance spoke one evening, unsure if it was alright to interfere, but wishing to help.

"Unfortunately, I would advise against that, Your Royal Highness. Not only is the problem not in her Soul, but her cultivation is a whole Major Realm higher than yours.

If you try to interfere, you might suffer damage instead, while also possibly disrupting the subtle balance that currently prevents her physique from doing any damage to herself"

Wu Long shook his head with a sigh.

"Hmm, is there no way for us to help her at all?"

Song Lingfei asked next, also worried for the icy beauty.

"You both are very kind, as you have your own problems to deal with, yet extend consideration for Prime Disciple Xue.

But rest assured, she would be able to control her physique, and if it truly becomes necessary, I will step in to help"

He smiled at the two who sighed with both lament at not being able to help themselves, and at the same time relief from being reassured by him.

"By the way, now that I mention your matters, I am on the verge of completing the technique that should solve the problem with your cultivation, Your Imperial Highness"

He spoke in a lighter tone since he was bringing good news.

"A-already?! T-thank you so much! Daoist Wu! I can't thank you enough..."

Her eyes first widened and then lit with a joyful light as Cai Yin smiled, glad to see her new friend's worries being on the way to being solved.

"Haha, please don't be too humble, as I have promised you a cure long before, and even had to change my promise, much to my shame. So it is only natural I do what I can.

As for Your Royal Highness' affairs, it is a little bit more complicated, since it involves a whole country, but we should be making some progress soon enough"

He then turned to the other princess whose smile became even warmer at his words, and they slowly drifted away from heavier topics to lighter ones.

"Oh, by the way, I completely forgot to ask, how was your date?"

Suddenly, Song Lingfei asked, spontaneously remembering the question as they were discussing the festival that happened not long ago.

"Hm? You know about it?"

"Of course we know, we helped her pick out her dress. Heavens, I can't imagine if you took her out in such an outfit"

Cai Yin chimed in with excitement, while Wu Long raised his eyebrows.

"Wait... I thought only..."

"Hahaha, of course for something so important the more advice the better, they called not only us, but Fairy Gong Liwei and Madam Liang as well. Though Fairy Yu Huan and Prime Disciple Xue Bing both refrained from joining in the discussion, they were present as well"

Song Lingfei made a tinkling laughter, as if it was something so matter of fact that it did not even need to be mentioned.

'No wonder Prime Demon Hong Ye had such a face when she came back from them... hahaha'

He inwardly chuckled, as the different relationship dynamics between his Dao Family and the guests of the house must have thrown her off, not to mention having so many people she did not know suddenly make a fuss around her.

He could comment how they used several hours on a simple process of picking out an outfit, but he knew well that the moment the word 'simple' would leave his mouth the looks in their eyes would change so he simply smiled instead.

"Haha, but the date went well. Thank you, you two for helping her"

"Of course, anytime"

A delighted tinkling laughter resounded in the gazebo they sat in, making the peaceful late spring garden somehow even more beautiful.
