After arriving in the Southern Domain World, Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu had already gained so knowledge from their journey, yet they were still deeply shocked by the sight of Tian Nan Peak’s main peak.
"This truly is a blessed and beautiful land," Tong Yunshu remarked.
She could clearly sense that this place did not have any Spirit Gathering Array enhancents, yet even so, the Spiritual Energy here was dense, far surpassing any place she had previously visited.
Even compared to the formations on Yunwu Mountain and White Jade City Mountain, where the spiritual energy was abundant, this place was beyond comparison.
Yang Fei was also astonished by this naturally ford area of abundant Spiritual Energy, exclaiming, "Previously on Earth, I was indeed ignorant, not realizing that such a paradise could exist in this world."
Wan Daorong gave a faint smile and said, "Such places only exist in one or two locations in the Southern Domain Cultivation World. Even the regions occupied by two-star sects like Lingxiao Sect, Fla Moon Sect, and Great Dao Sect are only comparable to White Jade City in terms of spiritual energy density. So you need not be surprised; even in the Great Cultivation World, Earth’s White Jade City is an extrely rare spiritual place. Moreover, the spiritual energy in Earth’s White Jade City is said to be gradually increasing, whereas our Tian Nan Peak’s spiritual energy stopped growing three thousand years ago and seems to be slowly declining."
Tong Yunshu couldn’t help but say, "That’s different. Though the spiritual energy in White Jade City is abundant, it is due to the cohesive effect of the Spirit Gathering Array, while the spiritual energy here naturally surrounds us."
Wan Daorong chuckled, looking at Tong Yunshu, and said, "How do you know there isn’t a Spirit Gathering Array here?"
Tong Yunshu was taken aback, her face blushing as she imdiately tried to sense the magnetic field of the surrounding natural forces once more. Indeed, she couldn’t feel any effects of a Spirit Gathering Array, and couldn’t help but ask, "My Realm is low, and I only have a rudintary understanding of formations. Perhaps I can’t see through the mysteries of this formation. May I ask, Senior, if there truly is a powerful Spirit Gathering Array here?"
Wan Daorong nodded and said, "There is. Any blessed and beautiful land will gradually decline as cultivators move in. The first thing a cultivation sect or aristocratic family does when settling in such a place is to find ways to stabilize and prevent the Spiritual Energy from dissipating, or even gather more Spiritual Energy around it. Therefore, every cultivation site sets up a Spirit Gathering Array. Our Shang Qing Sect has the largest Spirit Gathering Array in the Southern Domain. We have already entered the formation half a day ago, so you can’t sense its presence here."
Tong Yunshu blushed and said, "I see."
Once inside the vast range of a Spirit Gathering Array, it becos difficult to detect the subtle fluctuations of spiritual energy gathering within the formation, as her current cultivation level couldn’t perceive the existence of the formation.
Yang Fei had been observing all along and similarly did not find any traces of a Spirit Gathering Array, exclaiming, "As expected of a one-star sect, being able to establish such a vast Spirit Gathering Array is beyond imaginable in depth."
The Spirit Gathering Array of White Jade City covers a radius of ten li at most, thanks to the ancient Jianmu.
But the coverage of Shang Qing Sect’s Spirit Gathering Array probably exceeds a hundred li.
All throughout their journey, he couldn’t detect any traces, demonstrating both the secrecy of this grand Spirit Gathering Array and its high grade, beyond the basic Spirit Gathering Arrays he and Tong Yunshu understood.
"Master, you have finally returned."
At this mont, a loud voice ca from the direction of Tian Nan Peak.
Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu raised their eyes to follow the sound, only to see a flash of light in front of them, and a figure appeared on the spirit ship.
This person wore a white base with blue-toned silk robe, with flowing hair, looking quite handso and impressive.
Though appearing young, a single glance would evoke the word "immortal" in one’s mind.
"Master."
This person bowed and saluted Wan Daorong with cupped hands.
Wan Daorong gestured dismissively, saying, "No need for formalities. Is there sothing urgent? You seem a bit anxious."
The person quickly said, "Yes, Master."
He glanced at Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu but didn’t continue speaking.
Wan Daorong noticed his hesitation and said, "Speak freely."
Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed in the person’s eyes, and he grew more curious about Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu.
As Wan Daorong’s disciple, he naturally adhered to Wan Daorong’s words, saying, "After you left last ti, Master Bai ca. She caused quite a commotion and took Junior Brother Wang, saying she would personally punish him for his mistakes, as you instructed, and would confine him on Tianzhu Peak for severe discipline."
Wan Daorong’s expression changed, anger flaring in his eyes, "Bai Xumi acted personally?"
The person sensed Wan Daorong’s anger and hesitated before saying, "Master Bai didn’t exactly act violently, but you know, Master, we wouldn’t dare stop her in your absence."
Wan Daorong snorted, "What did I tell you when I left?"
"Disciple acknowledges fault and willingly accepts punishnt," the person hurriedly said.
Listening to the exchange, Yang Fei inwardly sneered.
No matter if they were truly acting or not, Wang Xingpeng was not confined on Tian Nan Peak as Wan Daorong had claid.
But this matter wasn’t urgent at the mont.
Yang Fei said to Wan Daorong, "Master, may I first see my Sister Xuanyu?"
Wan Daorong glanced at him and said, "Fei’er, don’t worry. Your Master will ensure you are satisfied."
Yang Fei shook his head, "Don’t worry, Master. I understand the priorities."
Wan Daorong understood Yang Fei was certainly upset, but with the situation as it was, he felt no need to over-explain and nodded, "Fine, I’ll take you to see that lady first."
"Master, who are these two?" the cultivator who brought news couldn’t help but ask Wan Daorong, with a sowhat shocked expression.
His na was Shang Heng, Wan Daorong’s senior disciple, a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator. He managed all affairs of Tian Nan Peak and held a distinguished position within both the peak and the entire Shang Qing Sect.
Wan Daorong said, "Shang Heng, this is Yang Fei, my newly accepted closed-door disciple, and henceforth your junior brother. Fei’er, this is your Senior Brother Shang Heng."
Yang Fei hurriedly bowed to Shang Heng, "Greetings, Senior Brother."
Shang Heng raised his hand to help him up, "There’s no need for such formality, Junior Brother." Outwardly calm, he was inwardly shocked.
The Master had long abandoned the idea of accepting disciples, yet suddenly returned with a new disciple, even calling him a closed-door disciple.
But this Junior Brother looked rely in his teens, already an early-stage Core Formation cultivator; his talent was indeed remarkable, no wonder Master accepted him as a closed-door disciple.
Wan Daorong put away the spirit ship and said to Yang Fei, "Let’s go, I’ll take you to see that lady."
Yang Fei, eager to learn about Li Xuanyu’s situation, nodded hastily.
