After waiting for the people from the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race to leave the Kunlun Main Hall.

  Liu Jing looked at Miao Yue and said.

  “Does Junior Sister think so highly of Jiang Lan?”


  Miao Yue smiled, her voice was clear and pleasant.

  “Senior Brother, it’s not like you haven’t seen the Goddess transcend her tribulation. How was the array formation then?”


  “Very strong. Not to mention the younger generation, even those from the older generation cannot compare to him. But…” Liu Jing said worriedly.

  “Jiang Lan had spent a lot of effort to set up the array formation for the Goddess’ tribulation. The courtyard he lives in unlikely has an array formation of such strength.

  Furthermore, a maze formation is easy to break. We have already set the time for the challenge to be tomorrow. It’s impossible for Jiang Lan to refine it now.”


  “Senior brother, are you free recently?” Miao Yue looked at Liu Jing and asked.

  “If you have time, you can try challenging Jiang Lan’s courtyard. Without using your strength, you can give the maze array formation outside Jiang Lan’s courtyard a try.

  Oh right, Senior Brother might not understand Jiang Lan well. He is a very vigilant person. If his surroundings are not safe, he will not feel well.

  The strongest array formation in the Ninth Summit should be in front of the Netherworld Cave. That is where he goes into closed-door cultivation. Next would be his courtyard where he usually stays.

  He has definitely spent a lot of time on the array formations in these two places.”


  Even though Miao Yue was not Jiang Lan’s master, she understood Jiang Lan pretty well.

  Jiang Lan was not simple at all.

  Even after so many years, he still maintained his original temperament and heart.

  On the surface, it seemed as though he had nothing much to do with Kunlun.

  It was as if he was valued in Kunlun because of the Goddess.

  His reputation was as bad as ever.

  However, he had done this all on purpose.

  “I’ll go take a look in the afternoon.” Liu Jing naturally didn’t refuse.

  Miao Yue definitely had a basis for her words.

  He also wanted to take a look.

  He could let Mo Zhengdong lead the way.

  …


  In the afternoon.

  At the peak of the Ninth Summit.

  “You want me to lead the way for you, Senior Brother?” Mo Zhengdong asked Liu Jing.

  “That courtyard is Jiang Lan’s private residence after all. With Junior Brother leading the way, it’s much more suitable,” Liu Jing said.

  He came here today to test how strong the maze array formation was.

  “Senior Brother might not know,” Mo Zhengdong said expressionlessly.

  “Once I enter, the array formations will lose effect. Currently, Jiang Lan is in seclusion. As long as you don’t enter his courtyard, there shouldn’t be any problems. It’s not time for the Goddess to come down yet as well.”


  Why would he go into the maze array formation again?

  He had already experienced it many years ago. He chose to not participate this time around.

  “In that case, Junior Brother can just watch from the sidelines,” said Liu Jing.

  Mo Zhengdong nodded.

  After a while.

  In front of the courtyard, in the peach blossom forest.

  “The environment here is not bad. This place looks quite elegant,” Liu Jing praised.

  “Senior Brother, you can try entering. Even if you can’t enter, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to come out of the array formation.

  However, do not use your power, or the array formation will be destroyed,” Mo Zhengdong reminded.

  It was not that Jiang Lan’s array formation was weak and fragile that he could break it just by using his strength.

  It was because their strength surpassed the power of the array formation left behind by Jiang Lan that they were able to break the array.

  “Although my attainments in array formations are inferior to Junior Sister Miao Yue’s, it’s not too bad.” Liu Jing nodded slightly to express his understanding.

  Then, he walked into the peach blossom forest.

  Mo Zhengdong stood still and waited.

  From afternoon until evening.

  At this moment, someone flew over on a sword and landed on the east side of Mo Zhengdong.

  “Where’s Senior Brother?”


  “He has gone in.” Mo Zhengdong nodded.

  “When did he go in?”


  “It has been some time.”


  Jiu Zhongtian stopped asking. He did not know much about array formations, so he did not want to enter so that he could prevent embarrassing himself.

  He could break the array formation with his sword, and that was enough.

  The night sky appeared.

  The bright moon hung high in the sky.

  At this moment, the peach blossom forest seemed to be tainted by the moonlight, and everything in the surroundings lit up.

  But upon closer inspection, there seemed to be no change at all.

  “The array formation seems to have gotten stronger,” said Jiu Zhongtian.

  Mo Zhengdong nodded and explained.

  “That’s true. If anyone wants to trespass into the ninth summit, they would most likely do so at night. Thus, Jiang Lan has changed the array formations to become more powerful when night falls.”


  After so many years, he naturally knew a thing or two about this.

  Even if he did not pay attention to it, he could sense what was happening.

  There were many array formations in the Ninth Summit.

  There were many things that he knew, but there were more that he might not know.

  In the middle of the night.

  “Has it been a long time?” Jiu Zhongtian asked.

  “Let’s go in and take a look.” In the end, Mo Zhengdong decided to go in and pick his Senior Brother up.

  People should be coming in tomorrow morning to attempt to break past the array formation.

  “Are you confident?” Jiu Zhongtian looked at Mo Zhengdong and asked.

  “Don’t worry too much,” Mo Zhengdong said.

  How could a mere maze array formation stop him?

  There weren’t many array formations here that could trap them.

  Except for the array formation that could not be destroyed.

  Mo Zhengdong led the way in, and the maze had no effect on him.

  With that, Jiu Zhongtian felt much more at ease. Otherwise, the outsiders might see the three of them trapped in the array formation tomorrow when they came.

  Then…


  It would damage Kunlun’s reputation.

  Some time later.

  Mo Zhengdong saw Liu Jing looking up at the moon.

  “Senior Brother, what do you think of the array formation?” Mo Zhengdong asked.

  “It’s indeed not bad,” Liu Jing turned around and said to Mo Zhengdong and the others.

  It wasn’t that he couldn’t break it, but that he couldn’t use his array formation skills to break it.

  After a pause, Liu Jing continued.

  “It must have been tough for you in the Ninth Summit.”


  Mo Zhengdong remained silent.

  It was true. He might have gotten lost on his own summit if Jiang Lan had not made adjustments to his array formations.

  It was not right for him to make a move. It was also not right for him to not make a move.

  …


  …


  It was morning.

  Jiang Lan continued to cultivate.

  He was concluding his cultivation.

  He could go out today.

  The increase in cultivation on the surface was not a real increase in cultivation level, so there was no need to familiarize himself with the current realm.

  There were not many changes to his Deity Position at the moment.

  He needed to hear more about what was happening outside in the Grand Desolate World.

  After adjusting his cultivation, he stood up.

  At this moment, the Netherworld’s Entrance had already returned to normal, and the vegetative egg had already entered for some time.

  Carrying the vegetative egg and Udumbara Flower, Jiang Lan headed outside.

  After exiting the Netherworld Cave, there was a gentle breeze.

  It felt cool and comfortable.

  It was the spring breeze.

  “This feels a bit strange.” Jiang Lan looked ahead.

  “There are some fluctuations in the array formation, and there’s the smell of someone else.”


  When he was in closed-door cultivation, Jiang Lan was most concerned about the array formations around the Netherworld Cave.

  He did not care about the array formation in his courtyard.

  His Senior Sister often went in and out from there.

  However, things were different now. There seemed to be quite a number of people.

  “Someone is looking for me on a large scale?” Jiang Lan was puzzled.

  At this time, no one should attack him.

  Power surged faintly.

  He carefully walked towards the courtyard.

  If it was an enemy attack, he would kill the other party as quickly as possible.

  But soon, he was stunned.

  As he approached the courtyard, he discovered a group of people outside the peach blossom forest.

  “…”


  There were disciples from all the various summits present.

  What… What had happened?

  There was no news from his master.

  Out of curiosity, Jiang Lan came to the edge of the crowd to see what was going on.

  “Senior Brother, what’s the situation now?” Suddenly, an Essence Soul disciple approached Jiang Lan.

  He was asking about the current situation.

  “I just arrived. Does Junior Brother know what’s going on here?” Jiang Lan asked softly.

  His house had turned into an attraction.

  Furthermore, there were many people surrounding it and looking at it.
