1201: Chapter 302 1201: Chapter 302 Cao Zhen walked alone toward the mountain where the silver wings had fallen.
He had already traveled about three-quarters of the distance, but the remaining part proved to be much harder than he had expected.
As he drew closer to the mountain, with every step he took, the remaining influence of the dreadful Sect Tribulation would strengthen.
One day, two days…
He moved forward with difficulty, to the point that his pace at the final stretch could almost be described as shuffling.
In the distance, although the others could not continue to advance like Cao Zhen, many chose to stay in the area.
They had reached their limits, and by continuously pushing themselves, they were effectively training themselves.
Some even went to the ruins to study the remnants of the Great Formation and the influence of the surrounding Sect Tribulation.
“This formation, I’m beginning to understand it, so that’s how it is.”
“The Sound Doctrine Church may have failed to overcome its Sect Tribulation, but after all, it was once a top Great Teaching, with profound heritage indeed!”
Upon realizing he couldn’t advance any further, Little Beiyan returned to the ruins.
Initially, only the location of the ruins experienced the oppression of the Sect Tribulation and the falling of Heavenly Tribulations, but now, outside the ruins, on the path toward the mountain, the pressures and Heavenly Tribulations grew stronger.
Above the falsehood, there was no longer any oppression or falling Heavenly Tribulations.
Bei Yan was genuinely interested in this formation, delving into the Sound Doctrine Church’s remnants of the Great Formation after arriving at the ruins.
Many others were also studying the residual Great Formation, but whenever Bei Yan walked over, those nearby working on certain parts of the formation would immediately move aside to make space for him.
There was no choice; the person before them was a cultivator who had experienced the Wind Fire Tribulation and could trigger the Wind Fire Heavenly Tribulation at any moment; they did not wish to get struck by accident.
Bei Yan had always studied formations on his own, but after accessing records on formations from the Hundred Peaks Sect, he still found the Sound Doctrine Church, with its two-million-year heritage, incomparable, even if it was just the remnants of a shattered formation.
Time passed day by day.
It took Cao Zhen a full ten days to reach the foot of the mountain.
Suddenly, the voice of China Cloud, which had not spoken to him for a long time, echoed in his mind.
“Formation level breakthrough, administrator level upgrade, now adding one designated user and one random user.”
Cao Zhen was stunned.
How did his own Formation level increase?
Among his disciples, the only one skilled in formations was Little Beiyan.
So, had Little Beiyan’s Formation level risen again, and he had reaped the benefits without effort?
He had previously made a connection with the Golden Light Sage and then arranged formations for the Hundred Peaks Sect, which had significantly increased his own Formation level.
Was Little Beiyan’s Formation level now so strong that it could even cause his own level to rise again?
While puzzled, Cao Zhen heard China Cloud’s voice once again, “Random user selected as Cao Cao.”
Cao Cao?
After so much randomizing, he finally landed on a member of his own family.
But what good was randomizing Cao Cao for him?
Cao Cao was skilled in Military Law, but the problem was he didn’t need to lead troops into battle, and could Cao Cao’s Military Law be as formidable as Sun Zi’s?
Cao Cao could also compose poetry.
But the problem is, Boss Cao’s poetry wasn’t top-tier; certainly not comparable to Li Du.
What’s more important, Boss Cao did not practice immortal cultivation, so what use was randomizing him to me?
It’s not as if he had traveled back in time where connecting to Boss Cao would have been especially useful; what could he gain in this world of immortal cultivation?
Murder in dreams?
Steal qi?
While Cao Zhen was internally criticizing, China Cloud’s voice came through again.
“Please choose the designated user.”
“Designated user, who can I choose?” Cao Zhen knew he had to make a quick decision, or China Cloud would randomly choose for him.
If random selection brought someone like He Shen, that might be fine, but if it turned out to be someone like Qin Hui, he would have nowhere to cry.
But, who could he connect to among his disciples?
That’s right, Immortal Bi Yue!
Immortal Bi Yue had reached the limit of the Golden Core Stage as a Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, which speaks volumes about her talents.
Compared to Star Lord Hao Yue and the Axe Lunatic, who were neither Great Ability incarnates, they hadn’t reached the Golden Core Period Limit even at the Perfect Completion Golden Core.
This highlighted how extraordinary Immortal Bi Yue’s talents were.
And given her extensive backing, her future development would undoubtedly be smooth, making it easier for him to win without effort.
It’s her!
Cao Zhen quickly answered in his mind, “I choose to connect with Immortal Bi Yue from the Dragon Chant Sect of the Eastern Province.”
He still didn’t know Immortal Bi Yue’s name, so to avoid any confusion with other ‘Immortal Bi Yue,’ he specified that it was the Immortal Bi Yue from the Dragon Chant Sect, even adding the Eastern Province for good measure.
“Designated user Immortal Bi Yue, connection successful.”
After the voice of China Cloud spoke, it quickly faded away.
In almost an instant, as Cao Zhen reached the foot of the mountain, a dazzling silver radiance erupted from atop the high peak.
Subsequently, a silver, slightly transparent pair of wings, akin to butterfly wings, appeared in the void.
