Next, Fang Yu went directly down the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, Fang Yu began to set up a grand array.

"In the Dragon Emperor's memory, there are three types of ancient formations, the strongest in defense, yet the most difficult to set up. However, these three ancient formations have extremely high requirements for cultivation, and the probability of successful setup is very low!"

Fang Yu muttered to himself while observing the surroundings.

"The Eighty-one Layers of Heavenly Cloud Mountain Formation."

He pronounced the name.

"The Eighty-one Layers of Heavenly Cloud Mountain Formation requires setting up different defensive arrays in eighty-one directions, and at each position, it is necessary to set up forty-nine small Spirit Gathering Arrays to maintain the abundance of spiritual energy. When the arrays in all eighty-one directions are completed, the entire Tiandu Mountain will be covered by the formation, forming a defensive chain."

Regarding this Cloud Mountain Formation.

Fang Yu was thoroughly familiar.

Because the Dragon Emperor had attempted to set up this formation in the past, but failed. At that time, over a hundred Supreme Heavenly Rank experts were summoned, including himself. They tirelessly engraved arrays day and night, but all of them exhausted their Inner Essence and still could not succeed.

Later, when the formation failed, there was a massive explosion, killing more than thirty Supreme Heavenly Rank experts.

Since then, the Dragon Emperor never dared to lightly attempt to set up this Cloud Mountain Formation again.

Recalling these memories.

Fang Yu sighed and murmured to himself, "Supreme Heavenly Rank experts, the highest realm among the nine ranks of Heavenly Rank, yet unable to condense a Qi Sea... The Qi Sea is the hallmark of the Saint rank, much broader and thicker than the Dantian, with much stronger cultivation power… Today, my power is at the Infinite Saint rank, a hundred Supreme Heavenly Ranks are just ants!"

He couldn't calculate how many Supreme Heavenly Ranks equate to the Infinite Saint rank.

If he had to compare, it's the difference between a small river and the ocean.

"Fortunately, the ancient books recording this ancient formation were burned back then."

In other words, only Fang Yu knows the key to setting up the Cloud Mountain Formation.

Following this—

Fang Yu began searching for the setup positions.

Starting from the north, he swiftly moved around Tiandu Mountain.

The range of Tiandu Mountain is no small area... completing the setup is not a task for just one day.

Fang Yu was already prepared to spend several days, so he wasn't in a rush.

Finally...

After hours of searching.

Fang Yu found the first position to set up the grand array.

"Every beginning is difficult."

Once the first setup is successful, the subsequent arrays are just a matter of evolving positions based on the first, setting up the array eye, and continuously repeating. Therefore, the first array is extremely difficult.

Fang Yu looked at the surrounding environment.

Then he looked up at the sky.

"Position is correct, direction is correct, and spiritual energy is abundant..."

Following this, Fang Yu clapped his palm.

Boom!

The surrounding weeds and trees all receded.

The surrounding area became a barren land devoid of grass.

He clapped again.

Boom!

The entire ground was oppressed by intense True Spiritual Energy, making it flat and smooth!

With a wave of his hand, array patterns appeared.

"Spiritual Will!"

In Fang Yu's brow, it was as if a stream of light appeared, making him exceptionally focused, seemingly forgetting everything around...

Suddenly.

Fang Yu brought his palms together.

Immense spiritual energy formed a massive circle.

The brightness was exceptional.

"Tian Shu!"

He thrust a move downward.

Centered around Fang Yu, forty-nine circular array patterns appeared. The patterns dispersed.

The spheres generated a gravitational pull like an invisible vortex.

"Damn, it absorbs so well?"

Fang Yu felt the spiritual energy throughout his body being absorbed by the vortex.

Every time the vortex absorbed some energy, the surrounding array patterns brightened a little.

The forty-nine array patterns seemed frozen.

They kept absorbing.

It was unclear how long they absorbed.

The forty-nine array patterns suddenly merged with a bang, then exploded.

Like a celestial net, it descended from the sky.

These grid-like array patterns seemed dotted with stars.

"Tian Shu is completed!"

Fang Yu abruptly raised his hand.

The surrounding brightness vanished instantly!

Everything returned to its original state.

Magically, the soil that was forcibly pushed away by Fang Yu earlier sprouted new trees and weeds, as if no one had ever been there.

"Shocking level Spiritual Will is indeed powerful, allowing me to simultaneously inscribe forty-nine arrays. If it were using the old method, each array would take several hours to inscribe. For forty-nine arrays, who knows how long it would have taken."

The Seven Star Tian Shu is the array eye of the Cloud Mountain Formation.

The Tian Shu is also the position of the array eye.

But finding Tian Shu is not an easy task.

Moreover, the positions of the Beidou Seven Stars are variable, shifting with the movement of the sun, moon, and stars.

Only a grandmaster of array formation could have this insight.

General array masters, even if they saw the setup skill, couldn't find the array eye.

"The rest is much simpler..."

Fang Yu checked the remaining spiritual energy in his Qi Sea. The first array is the hardest and requires the most spiritual energy, and setting it up consumed nearly one-tenth. But there are still eighty arrays to set up.

"Now I understand why the Dragon Emperor's attempt with over a hundred Supreme Heavenly Rank experts failed... At this rate of consumption, even a thousand Supreme Heavenly Ranks would struggle."

To maintain the subsequent array setups, Fang Yu sat cross-legged and meditated for a while to recover, before heading to the next position.

...

Five hours later.

In a small town ten miles outside Tiandu Mountain.

In a hotel room.

"Boss, we're still ten miles away from Tiandu Mountain. Lord Changcun said to avoid that guy named Fang Yu, and look for opportunities to ambush others. If we can bring back the Holy Daughter, we'll achieve great merit."

Another person nodded.

"Our True Dragon Clan has just returned, it's best not to be too high-profile. Lord Changcun ordered, absolutely not to engage Fang Yu directly; this person's cultivation is very high... But the other inhabitants of Tiandu Mountain have very low cultivation, like ants. All four of us have Star Level cultivation, infiltration to assassinate them is not a problem."

"Boss, I think the same way."

Just as those words fell.

A shadow flashed past the balcony.

"Who's there?"

The shadow flashed again.

Swish.

It stood on the balcony.

The shadow was a person wearing a black robe and a black veil, even covering their head.

The entire body exuded a terrifying aura.

The four people's expressions changed slightly, as if facing a great enemy.

"I wonder what brings the senior here? The four of us brothers have not offended the senior!"

From this aura, they already knew that this mysterious master was far superior to them in cultivation.

The black-robed person was the mysterious figure who had helped Fang Yu before.

He spoke with a hoarse voice:

"You have offended someone you shouldn't have offended."

The four were stunned simultaneously.

The black-robed person spoke again: "Go to hell..."

With a wave of the hand, several black blades appeared in the air!

These were blades condensed from Primordial Qi.

Swish, swish swish...

The four showed expressions of fear and exclaimed: "Infinite Peak!"

Only experts above the Infinite Peak realm could so skillfully condense Primordial Qi Weapons!

Slash. Slash slash!

The black blades pierced through the four's foreheads.

The mysterious figure didn't even look, turning around instead.

Thud, thud... The four collapsed.

The mysterious figure stood with hands behind the back, gazing toward Tiandu Mountain, murmuring: "Hope you become stronger soon... This is all I can help you with!"
