The teleportation formation stood at the center of the cavern, its intricate design mesmerizing to behold. Crystalline pillars surrounded the formation, emanating a faint hum of energy. Ancient symbols glowed with a soft blue light, tracing patterns along the floor.

Liang approached the formation, his eyes scanning its intricate patterns. It was clear that the formation had been damaged over the centuries, rendering it inactive.

However, before he could do anything, a tremor shook the ground, causing the cavern’s entrance to collapse, blocking their path back.

Liang’s expression remained unfazed as if he already expected that to happen.

Suddenly, a deep, resonating voice echoed through the abyss, causing the very ground to tremble. "Who dares trespass upon my domain?"

Liang and Xia exchanged a glance and turned toward the source of the voice, a massive figure emerged from the darkness.

The massive figure that emerged from the darkness of the collapsed cavern entrance was a sight to behold. Its towering form stood at least twenty feet tall, its body covered in sleek, midnight-black scales that glinted with an otherworldly sheen. Muscles rippled beneath its skin, hinting at the immense strength it possessed.

The creature’s eyes were the most captivating feature, glowing a fiery red that seemed to pierce through the shadows.

Its elongated limbs ended in talons, each one capable of rending even the sturdiest of rocks as if they were mere dust. And its head, crowned with a crest of sharp horns, held a mouth filled with rows of razor-sharp teeth, glistening ominously in the dim light.

As the creature moved closer, its massive wings unfurled, spanning a length that seemed to swallow the cavern. The wings shimmered, their membrane delicate yet resilient, stretching outwards as if they were ready to take flight at any moment.

Liang and Xia could sense the aura of raw power that emanated from the creature’s body, filling the air with a palpable sense of danger.

"Senior Wang, it’s Xia," Xia called out, her voice quivering slightly.

The figure drew closer, prompting a deep, rumbling laughter to fill the air. "Ah, it’s you, girl. It’s been ages since I laid eyes on you; your appearance almost slipped my memory."

Xia nodded, her voice tinged with nostalgia. "Indeed, nearly five thousand years have passed since we last met."

Wang chuckled heartily in response. "Time flies, Xia. Tell me, what has brought you here?"

"I’ve come with Mr. Liang to restore the formation," Xia replied.

Wang’s red eyes flickered towards Liang, his tone dripping with disdain. "Mr. Liang? You mean that brat?"

Liang remained composed, undeterred by Wang’s dismissive words.

Wang said with a sneer, "I thought you guys would be looking for a Void Transformation Formation Master, not a Dao Integration brat!"

Xia smiled, amusement dancing in her eyes. "Actually, Mr. Liang is much more than that."

Intrigued, Wang inquired, "How so?"

"He is not only a skilled formation master but also a talented blacksmith. Furthermore, he is a Void Dao Cultivator ," Xia explained.

Wang laughed. "So that’s the case, good, good."

""Young Liang, waste no time and mend the formation, and I shall reward you generously," Wang declared, waving his hand dismissively.

Liang grinned. "Certainly, I can restore the formation. However, I have a condition."

"A condition?" Wang questioned.

Xia voiced her discontent. "This wasn’t part of our agreement, Mr. Liang."

Liang remained unruffled and responded, "Miss Xia, we haven’t finalized any agreement. We merely discussed the mission and my compensation."

Xia’s eyes narrowed, her curiosity piqued. "What are your terms, Mr. Liang?"

"It’s a simple request. Prior to undertaking the task, we need to establish a contract," Liang stated calmly.

"A contract?" Wang exclaimed in surprise.

Liang nodded. "The contract will ensure my safety once the formation has been repaired."

Wang’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. "Your safety? Explain."

Liang calmly explained," You see, this kind of ancient formation has many functions. One of them is called the Activation Pact. The pact needs two drops of blood essence from each one to set. It will be stated in the pact that after repairing the formation, Senior Wang will let me go safely, and if by any means he tries to stop me, the formation shall be destroyed."

Wang’s expression darkened, and a chilling killing intent momentarily flickered through his fiery red eyes before vanishing in an instant. "Very well, you can have your contract, but we need to add another condition to it."

Liang smiled, raising his hands in a gesture of agreement. "Ah, you mean that we should include a provision regarding the non-disclosure of any information about this place and the formation, correct?"

Xia’s eyes sparkled with surprise as she swiftly processed Liang’s suggestion. Conveying her intrigue, she glanced at Liang and then turned her attention towards Wang, who responded with a deep chuckle. "Ah, quite clever," Wang remarked.

"If that is the case, let us proceed with placing the contract," Liang said, his voice steady and confident.

Carefully, Liang dropped two drops of his blood essence into the formation, his words outlining the terms of the contract once again. Wang followed suit, dropping his own two drops of blood essence into the formation as well.

As the blood essence merged with the formation, a brilliant light radiated from within, illuminating the cavern for a brief moment before it slowly faded away.

"Very well, Liang brat. You have your contract. Now, fix the formation," Wang commanded his voice a mix of authority and curiosity.

Liang smiled and began the painstaking process of repairing the formation. The runes and symbols had to be meticulously inscribed and aligned.

As he poured his void Qi into the formation, he could feel the ancient runes responding to his touch.

Each symbol he traced and inscribed was like a puzzle piece, fitting perfectly into the larger pattern.

It was a meticulous process that required not only skill but also a deep understanding of the formation’s design.

With each line he drew, Liang could sense the dormant energy of the formation stirring to life. The hum of power grew stronger, resonating through the crystalline pillars and filling the cavern with a vibrant aura. It was as if the very essence of the formation was awakening, eager to be brought back to its former glory.

But as Liang delved deeper into the repair, he encountered more complex issues. Some of the symbols were completely faded or damaged beyond recognition.

He had to rely on his intuition and knowledge of ancient formations to decipher their intended meaning.

It was a delicate balance between staying true to the original design and adapting to the unique conditions of the damaged formation.

Hours turned into days, but Liang remained steadfast, pouring his energy into the restoration process.

As Liang repaired each symbol, he could feel the formation responding, like a living entity being awakened from a long slumber. The soft blue light resonated with a renewed intensity, casting intricate patterns along the floor of the cavern.

But it wasn’t just the physical repair that mattered. Liang also had to restore the formation’s energetic flow.

He carefully adjusted the harmonics of the runes, aligning them in precise formations to create a smooth and seamless transfer of energy. It was a delicate dance of balance, ensuring that the formation would function at its peak efficiency.

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, the formation hummed to life, an ethereal glow illuminating the cavern.
