Chapter 445: Chapter 168: Fusing Formations, Chen Chang’an’s Idea_2
But he hadn’t detected any of these formations!
At this thought, a shiver ran down Liu Qingshan’s spine.
He had no idea how he had managed to visit such a terrifying place so many times with such composure.
Damn it!
This kid, is he serious with all these formations?
Liu Qingshan felt truly chilled to the bone, this was a bloody setup!
But what is this kid trying to accomplish by doing this to him out of nowhere?
Immediately, Liu Qingshan frowned slightly, not understanding the meaning behind Chen Chang’an’s actions.
Having Sky Abyss Cauldron as a foundation was already enough, now he has revealed these countless formations, this move, truly incomprehensible.
However, Liu Qingshan soon understood.
Hmm, hmm, hmm~!
Because following the appearance of those grand formations, the Sky Abyss Cauldron in the sky also began to hum in an instant.
Then, it actually moved directly to the center of those grand formations.
That was the Array Eye!
"I, Chen Chang’an, use today these myriad Dao Formations as a guide, and the Sky Abyss Saint Cauldron for honor! Protect my fortune in the heavens and the Confucian Path!"
"With Heaven and Earth as witnesses!"
At the same moment that Sky Abyss Cauldron and thousands of formations were integrated, Chen Chang’an’s voice suddenly echoed through the sky.
He was swearing an oath to Heaven and Earth!
Boom Boom~!
Boom Boom~!
Boom Boom~!
Under Chen Chang’an’s oath, there was a sudden thunderous roar as three terrifying thunderclaps resounded through Heaven and Earth.
This was an acknowledgment of Chen Chang’an’s path to sainthood!
There was no doubt about it.
The current Chen Chang’an had achieved the status of a Supreme Saint and had long been qualified to establish a Pathg.
Before, he had already imprinted his Dao on the Heavenly Dao while at the Holy Palace.
Even without this current declaration, the Confucian Path would still be recorded in Heaven and Earth.
And his current declaration was merely to fully implement this Path!
And the place corresponding to Chen Chang’an’s declaration was not just Daozang Mountain, but the entire Tianshui Sect.
Hmm, hmm, hmm~!
Then, after the three shocking thunders in the sky, a wave of golden light drifted down from Heaven and Earth.
The golden light was misty, and it surrounded the Tianshui Sect, lingering for a long time.
Hmm, hmm, hmm~!
When these golden lights appeared, Chen Chang’an on Daozang Mountain also moved.
"Disperse!"
He snorted softly and then waved his hand, wiping out all the surrounding formations.
He didn’t dismantle the formations; he simply expanded their reach.
Initially, the formations had only covered Daozang Mountain, but now they enveloped the entire Tianshui Sect.
Hmm, hmm, hmm~!
In an instant, the entire Tianshui Sect was shrouded like a massive golden bowl, unparalleled in power!
Within it, atop every piece of land, also hovered the terrifying power of the Great Dao.
The high-level entities dare not approach!
"Wuuwuuwuu, I greet all the ancestral ancestors, this era, our Tianshui Sect, has risen."
At the top of Tianshui Peak, Li Daoran went to the back mountain of the sect and knelt down deeply in front of the mountains lined with tombs, his face streaming with tears.
With the completion of the Sky Abyss Cauldron and these thousands of formations, the current Tianshui Sect can be said to truly possess the foundation of a supreme sect!
This was something he had never thought of before!
Hmm, hmm, hmm~!
While Li Daoran was paying homage to the ancestors, on Daozang Mountain, all the preparations had reached their conclusion.
After dispersing all the formations in all directions of the Tianshui Sect, the Sky Abyss Cauldron slowly descended from the sky.
In the end, it settled at the highest peak of Daozang Mountain!
The Sky Abyss Cauldron was truly terrifying at this moment.
From it, terrible waves of energy were gushing forth, not just pure righteousness, but also the aura of myriad laws!
Moreover, under the nourishment of this aura, the Sky Abyss Cauldron was being constantly nurtured.
With this continuous nurturing, the aura on it had become deeper and deeper.
Without a doubt, if this nurturing continues, one day in the future, the Sky Abyss Cauldron might well become a true sacred instrument.
"Well, not bad."
After the job was done, Chen Chang’an looked at the Taiyuan cauldron standing atop the mountain and nodded in satisfaction.
"Good? Good for what?"
However, Shen Xuzi couldn’t quite understand Chen Chang’an’s thinking.
He voiced his uncertainty saying,
"Kid, you can’t be telling me that you’ve traveled such a great distance, even exhausting all your trump cards, just to find an array eye for your formations?"
Shen Xuzi was genuinely puzzled. A profound foundation of a thousand ages may be unparalleled, but in comparison with a living Supreme Saint, it was akin to a sorcerer seeing a witch.
This kid, having managed to get a Semi-Saint weapon, is just using it to simply fill up an array eye, completely wasteful!
"What else could it be?" Chen Chang’an retorted instead of answering.
"How would we know if you don’t say?" Shen Xuzi rolled his eyes in annoyance.
"However, I’m quite curious."
"Your cultivation is so damn impressive, why the hell do you bother with so many formations?"
"Are you the reincarnation of some kind of masochistic cow?"
Immediately after asking, Shen Xuzi voiced another question that was nagging him.
"Am I not allowed to be afraid of death?" Chen Chang’an gave a faint smile.
"Uh..."
Shen Xuzi was left speechless, unable to refute him.
Then, the two men proceeded to walk down the mountain.
Halfway there, Shen Xuzi asked,
"Kid, I am quite curious. Do you really intend to take in disciples?"
The question Shen Xuzi asked was a rather formal one, at least it seemed more timely compared to the previous ones.
"I do not."
In response to Shen Xuzi’s question, Chen Chang’an shook his head.
He really didn’t plan on taking in any disciples.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, he simply couldn’t.
Each to their own.
Chen Chang’an admitted to himself that he wasn’t suited to teaching disciples.
While he could force himself to teach, the question was, what could he teach them? To cheat?
Huh? What? You don’t plan to???
"If you don’t plan on it, why declare a new mountain? Why such a grand spectacle?"
Upon hearing Chen Chang’an’s words, Shen Xuzi was immediately stunned. What on earth was going on here?!
"Who says that if you don’t take disciples, you can’t declare a new mountain?" Chen Chang’an responded with a slight smile.
"Uh, no one." Shen Xuzi nodded.
"Then you are?"
"Establishing a mountain to take in some service personnel."
"....."
The declaration of a new mountain at Daozang was not only unprecedented in the history of Tianshui Sect but was also a major event watched by the entire Wuxiang realm.
On the day of Daozang’s declaration, irrespective of the Dao province they were in, all the large sects dispatched representatives to watch the ceremony.
And, without exception, all those who came were top figures with extraordinary statuses.
More importantly, people from Emperor Song’s Palace had come as well.
Black and White Impermanence, Chi Mei, Youhuang, five of the seven Grand Yama from the Underworld were present. Only the Earth Bodhisattva, who was said to be in seclusion, didn’t attend, while all the others were present.
And leading the group from Emperor Song’s palace was none other than the Six Daos Heedful Envoy of the Palace, Kun Huang!
A Heavenly Venerate leading the group, this showed Emperor Song’s attitude towards the Supreme Saint of Tianshui, Chen Chang’an!
In an instant, this matter pushed the declaration of Daozang at the top of the trending news in the Wuxiang realm!
However, what came as a shock to everybody was the following sequence of events.
When they manifested, at the beginning of the grand opening ceremony of Daozang, it turned out that Daozang really didn’t take any disciples.
Instead, among the one hundred and eight peaks of Tianshui Sect, a group of disciples was selected to station at various points on Daozang Mountain!
These disciples did not take Chen Chang’an as their teacher. They continued the traditions of the various lineages of Daozang Mountain, acting as provisional Elders or Managers.
According to Chen Chang’an’s explanation, once this group of disciples were ready to become formal Elders or Managers, Daozang would really start to accept disciples.
Before they came, they had already thought that if Daozang really was set up to accept disciples, they would send their own sons and daughters to be disciples.
It looks like now, this plan might fall through.
Quietly passing the night, after the grand opening ceremony, the people from all the sects departed one after another.
On Daozang Mountain, Mao Ruxue was reporting to Chen Chang’an.
"Elder brother, in this grand opening, we have taken in a total of thirty-two disciples."
"This includes five Elders from various lineages and twenty-seven disciple Managers."
