Chapter 240 Baijian Formation Array
After Xia Tian descended from the sky, he then took out some materials, and handed them to Qiao Xiao, as he said to. “I hope you help me set up a formation in this mansion, Old Loli. Since I will soon join one of the sects on this realm, so I want to protect all of them with a formation.”
“Hmm? You want to join a sect? Did I hear right?” Qiao Xiao asked with a weird expression.
“I am no longer Long Tian, ??and now I have to climb back up from the bottom, so it wouldn’t hurt if I joined a sect. Moreover, I am now a dual cultivator, and the sect is a dual cultivation sect. ” Xia Tian nonchalantly replied, as he prepared the materials he would use for the formation.
Qiao Xiao then teased him. “Oh? So you deliberately joined the sect, because you wanted to find many women to be your dual cultivation partners, Old Wolf?”
Xia Tian just shook his head, and didn’t refute Qiao Xiao’s teasing. Fan Ying then said to him. “Why don’t you just go to our realm, Uncle Tian? You can also take them with you.”
Xia Tian shrugged his shoulders, as he replied. “I know what you’re thinking, Little Ying. But you have to remember one thing, too many people want me dead, and if they find out about my existence in the Elven Nature Realm, then they will definitely attack your realm.”
Xia Tian’s words stunned Qiao Xiao and the Elf Sisters, of course they remembered that many people had enmity and grudges with Long Tian, ??and they gave up trying to persuade him.
Xia Tian then took out two small jade stones from his Inventory, and gave them to Qiao Xiao and Fan Ying. “The two of you can use the jade to meet me whenever you want, and you can ask Jing’er about it, since she has already seen the place.”
“What formation do you want to set up in this place, Tian?” Qiao Xiao asked as she looked at the materials lying in front of them, as she herself had never studied formation arrays in depth.
“Baijian Formation Array! Although it is an ordinary defensive formation, but at least it can block the attacks of some people in Peak Stage Ancestor Origin Realm, and I also want to set up a Chixiu Formation Array in this place.” After saying that, Xia Tian then called some guards, and told them to put the materials in the place he had specified.
“I understand if you want to create a Baijian Formation Array, Tian. As for the Chixiu Formation Array, I have never heard of the formation.” Qiao Xiao asked him after searching her memory for all the formations she knew, but she didn’t find the Chixiu Formation Array in her memory.
Xia Tian laughed in amusement, after he remembered where he had found the scroll regarding the formation. “It’s natural that you don’t know about this formation, Old Loli. Because I found this formation in the Spirit Realm, to be more precise in that old man’s pile of books, and he regarded this formation as trash. Actually, the flow of time inside the formation is faster than in the outside world, about five times faster.”
“Five times faster than the flow of time in this world? Isn’t the formation effect too much?” Qiao Xiao exclaimed in shock, Fan Jing and the others also had the same reaction as her.
Murong Mengxin then said in a mocking tone about the old man Xia Tian was referring to. “That old man really doesn’t understand anything, if you take a good look at his storage room, then you will understand his stupidity.”
Xia Tian and the others chose to ignore Murong Mengxin, as her current attitude irritated them greatly. And not long after, the guards reported to Xia Tian that they had finished carrying out his orders, he then asked Qiao Xiao to quickly set up the formation.
“Sigh.” Qiao Xiao sighed softly, she immediately flew into the air, and stood in the air right in the middle of Xia Manor, then she used her divine sense to check the location of all the materials Xia Tian used. After she found all the locations of the materials, Qiao Xiao then exerted her energy sufficiently. She then directed her energy into all the materials, and before long they all started to ignite one by one.
About twenty minutes later a sizable energy dome enveloped the entire Xia Manor area, the soldiers who saw the energy dome were amazed by it, but they were no longer surprised by what Xia Tian and the others were doing.
“Done!” Qiao Xiao said as she landed in front of Xia Tian. “What about the second formation, Tian?”
“Let’s postpone it, Old Loli. I haven’t found a suitable place yet.” Xia Tian replied with a shake of his head.
Qiao Xiao raised her eyebrows, then she inspected the entire Xia Manor, and she found two suitable places. “Why don’t you make it in the pond area or in the bathhouse? I feel that the water in those two places is very rich with energy, but I think the bathhouse is the most suitable place for you to set up the formation.”
“Alright then, we’ll set it up there.” Xia Tian then went with Qiao Xiao to the bathhouse at Xia Manor, he immediately set up the Chixiu Formation there as per Xia Tian’s instructions, and they didn’t take much time to set up such a small formation.
“Hmm, this formation is very interesting, Tian. Not only does it speed up the flow of time but it also functions as an Energy Gathering.” With Qiao Xiao’s cultivation already extremely high, it was not difficult for her to recognize the difference, moreover the energy gathered by the formation was also quite dense and rich. 𝘦𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝑜𝑟𝘨
“Good then, this way they can also cultivate faster.” Xia Tian could also faintly sense it, he himself didn’t expect the formation to have any other benefits. He then noticed Qiao Xiao’s slightly odd behavior, and decided to ask him. “What’s the matter with you, Old Loli?”
“Humph!” Qiao Xiao snorted at Xia Tian, ??she immediately took off all her clothes, and jumped into the bathing pool directly. Seeing Xia Tian about to leave, she shouted at him. “You’d better accompany me, and help me clean my body!”
“Sigh! You’ve always been like this, Old Loli.” Helplessly Xia Tian took off his clothes, and went straight into the bathing pool, and he took a piece of cloth to clean Qiao Xiao’s body.
“How long have we not been like this, Tian?” Qiao Xiao sadly asked.
Xia Tian who was cleaning Qiao Xiao’s back could only sigh inwardly. “I don’t know, I don’t even remember the last time we were like this.”
“Humph! You dare to pretend you don’t remember! Ever since you married Lifen, you rarely come to my realm. Even after she died, every time Little Jing and I visited you in that mortal world, you always chased us away.” Qiao Xiao spoke louder and louder because of her irritation by Xia Tian’s past attitude. After that, she was silent for a while, and Xia Tian did not bother her. Before long, Qiao Xiao started to sob. “What do you think I felt when I heard from Little Jing that you used that forbidden technique?”
“Hey, can we stop talking about the past?” Xia Tian said with a heavy sigh. “Am I not alive now?”
Qiao Xiao then turned around, and hugged Xia Tian tightly. She pounded lihgtly his chest repeatedly, as she sobbed and spoke. “You bastard! I was devastated when I heard you died, even more so when I saw your corpse! I don’t know how you escaped the punishment of fate, but it won’t happen a second time, because fate must have marked your soul.”
