Recalling the method of arranging a formation, Lu Ye placed sixteen formation bases nearby, encasing several buildings and a spirit spring within. He then activated the grand formation.
A newly formed defensive array doesn't have much protection power. It needs to absorb enough spiritual energy for its protective power to strengthen continuously. The denser the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the more outstanding the protection.
Moreover, there is a protective barrier that blocks it, and the spiritual energy within the blessed land will not leak out.
As the sky gradually brightened, the accumulated spiritual energy in the spirit realm throughout the night became very dense. However, it hadn't reached its limit yet. This kind of accumulation usually takes several days to stabilize before assessing the grade of this spirit realm.
Lü Yè once again began setting up various formations within the spiritual grounds.
When it comes to cultivation, he is probably at the bottom of the Cloud River Battlefield right now. But this doesn't mean his strength is at the bottom. Especially in the way of formations, he still has a decent understanding. With the help of his skills in formations, he has prepared himself well. Even if cultivators from the fourth and fifth layers of the Cloud River come, they may not be able to do much to him.
If this were truly a desolate wasteland, it wouldn't attract much attention. But now that the spring has revived and the spiritual land is reborn, it will surely draw others' gaze soon. Then, there's bound to be some trouble.
Lu Ye was busy when suddenly he felt a shift in his heart. He looked up at the sky.
Suddenly, a graceful figure appeared in the sky, hovering there and curiously looking down. It was clearly surprised by the unusual activity below, having discovered the anomaly of the spiritual land.
Their eyes met, and the man exclaimed in surprise, "Is it you?"
<< >>
This woman is the one who had competed for the spirit talisman with him before, briefly clashed with him, and then cooperated with him.
The Yunhe Battlefield is so vast, to meet twice in just two days, it's like meeting a friend by chance across the world.
The female cultivator looked at Lü Ye and then at the detailed map in her hand. She confirmed that there was no mark for this spirit land on the map. With surprise, she exclaimed, "A newly born spirit land?"
She must have misunderstood.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! Lu Ye didn't intend to explain too much; he just watched her quietly.
The female cultivator lightly landed outside the protective formation, her figure floating as if weightless. She reached out and touched the light curtain of the formation, her eyes sparkling. "Little brother," she said, "are you a formations expert?"
Looking at the entire Yunhe battlefield, if you were to say which faction of cultivators was the most sought after, it would undoubtedly be the Array Masters. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
<<>>
<<>>

<<<"Hey, are you alone? Need a hand? Don't underestimate me just because I look delicate. I can fight really well." The female cultivator aggressively tried to sell herself, puffing out her chest as she spoke. >>>
Lu Ye distinctly heard a faint, wistful pout from Amber's core.
"“Hey, little brother, if you're truly a lone cultivator, even an array master, you definitely wouldn't be able to guard this Spirit Land. Let me help you out? Please take me in, little brother.” By the end, she was acting all coy and cute.
"
That's true, but Lu Ye never intended to hoard this spiritual land for himself. That's unrealistic.
According to the rules of the Yunhe Battlefield, for a small spirit land like this, the first few people who discover it can form a temporary alliance, jointly occupy it, and look out for each other.
Of course, rules are made to be broken. If Lu Ye had enough manpower, he could refuse.
<<>>
So, on the Yunhe battlefield, those cultivators who first discovered an unoccupied spiritual land basically got a share.
"Cultivation!" Lu Ye spoke in a faint voice.
The female cultivator puffed out her chest and said proudly, “Yun River Fifth Layer Realm! Three hundred and sixty acupoints ascended to the Yun River. Back then, I was still ranked forty-sixth on the Lingxi List. Heaven’s testament, absolutely no deceit.”
To be able to ascend the Lingxi List is undoubtedly a sign of great potential. However, in front of Lu Ye, the first on the Lingxi List, she still falls short. This shows that the female cultivator's sect is not simple either, at least a third-grade sect. As for which camp she belongs to, it doesn't matter.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! "If you, sir, would be willing to take me in, I pledge to work with you wholeheartedly. We will protect this sacred ground together. Anyone who dares to attack us will be mercilessly killed."
"Come in." Lu Ye urged the jade pendant that activated the protective formation, opening a gap in the formation.
The female cultivator immediately replied with delight, "Sounds good!"
I stepped inside, thinking to myself how lucky I was. Just wandering around randomly, I stumbled upon a new spirit realm that wasn't fully established yet, and it seemed like they were still short-staffed.
Only now did Lu Ye take a good look at the woman. He had to admit, she was very beautiful, with a great figure. The two sections of her arm that were exposed were so white and smooth, they looked like they could be broken by a touch, captivating his eyes.
The female cultivator looked around, only then did she realize: "Young brother, isn't this a newly born spiritual land? Has the spirit spring revived?"
If this were a newly born land, there wouldn't be so many ruined buildings. The presence of ruined buildings indicates that people used to live here.
The only reason someone would live in such a desolate place is that it must be haunted.
<<>
>>>
"You're so lucky! To encounter the revival of the Spirit Spring is truly rare. Of course, I'm quite lucky too, hehehe. By the way, may I ask your name?" The female cultivator had a boisterous personality that didn't lack femininity.
Lü Yè opened her mouth and blurted out, "Yè Liù!"
<<>>
Li Ye, the disciple of Bixue Sect, caused too many ripples on the Lingxi battlefield. On the Yunhe battlefield, it's certain that people have heard of him, so Li Ye had already decided to change his name when he entered the Yunhe battlefield.
"Oh... so it's Daoist Ye. My name is Shen Xiaomiao."
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was somewhat stiff.
<<<"The name 'Ye Liu' doesn't sound like a real name, and as for 'Shen Xiaochao,' it undoubtedly has a similar meaning. It's common practice for unfamiliar cultivators to give each other nicknames on the Yunhe battlefield.">>>
Lu Ye broke the silence, "Please make a Heavenly Pact." He knew that for unfamiliar cultivators to form an alliance and share a spiritual land, they needed a Heavenly Pact. Only a Heavenly Pact could give them peace of mind. Without a Heavenly Pact, no one knew if the other party would secretly cause trouble.
Lu Ye had never experienced this before, so he didn't know how to list the terms of the heavenly machine agreement. He simply handed it over to Shen Xiaomiao and took the opportunity to observe and learn.
"Good!" Shen Xiaomiao readily agreed, muttering to herself for a moment. Suddenly, a golden light descended from the heavens. She reached out and grasped it, pulling out a heavenly decree contract.
Lu Ye had seen his fourth senior brother perform this way on the summit of Jinguang before, so he wasn't surprised.
<<<"Fellow cultivator Ye, take a look and see if it's suitable. If it is, we'll sign it." Shen Xiaomiao handed the Heaven Machine Contract to Lu Ye. >>>
Lu Ye carefully examined the terms listed above. They were very detailed, outlining each party's obligations and responsibilities, emphasizing mutual aid and forbidding any thoughts of harming each other or revealing the location of this spiritual place to outsiders. This was primarily to prevent anyone from gathering familiar cultivators, such as Lu Ye himself. If he were to summon his four senior brothers and Feng Yuechan, it would be highly detrimental to Shen Xiaomiao. She would constantly worry about their intentions towards her.
It is precisely because of these concerns that a phenomenon of short-term cooperation between the two sides' cultivators appeared on the Yunhe battlefield.
Even more thoughtfully, Shen Xiaomiao even reserved two or three spots for people to stand.
Since this is a small spirit realm, usually only three or five people gather. With just Lu Ye and Shen Xiaomiao, their defensive power is a bit weak. If there were a few more people, it would be easier to defend this spirit realm.
There is something I need to tell you in advance. Lu Ye looked up at Shen Xiaomiao.
Please note that I only translated the text content within the <<< >>>tags. "Well, you said so." Shen Xiaomiao nodded.
"I have already told a fellow disciple about the news from this blessed land, but I do not know when he will be able to come."
"Just one?"
"Only one!"
"That's okay, as long as you don't just leak it randomly afterward."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! "If there are no issues, sign the Heavenly Decree Contract." Lu Ye raised his hand, biting his fingertip and imprinting it on the Heavenly Decree Contract. Shen Xiaochao did the same. In the ethereal realms, heavenly decree descended, and the Heavenly Decree Contract was complete.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! After signing the Heaven's Machine Pact, Shen Xiaomiao's demeanor became noticeably more composed. She no longer held the same degree of wariness towards Lu Ye as before.
She looked around and asked, "Where do you live?"
Li Ye pointed to the room where he had stayed last night.
<>
She said so, and with both hands holding her skirt, she ran into the room happily and began to tidy up.
Lu Ye continued to set up the formation.
It wasn't until the evening that Shen Xiaomiao finished her work, rushing out looking disheveled. She gave Lu Ye a curt nod and said, "I'm going to find somewhere to take a bath."
As the ??? leaves opened a protective barrier, they soared into the sky, disappearing in an instant. No one knew where they had gone.
By night, when Shen Xiaomiao returned, Lu Ye had already gone inside to rest.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! After a day and night of accumulation, the spiritual energy in this sacred land became very thick.
<<>
Compared to that, the spiritual energy in Lingdi now is two or three times more concentrated than any core circle base on the Lingxi Battlefield.
In this environment, cultivators of the Yunhe Realm naturally progress twice as fast.
Furthermore, the current situation of the spiritual land is not yet completely stable. After it stabilizes, the concentration of Heaven and Earth's spiritual energy will rise even further.
Of course, the efficiency of this kind of cultivation is not as high as using spirit talismans. However, it's more stable and enduring. There are too many uncertain factors in vying for spirit talismans. |
