I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

Chapter 461: Chapter 256: Earth Soul Flower, Mysterious Weapon Box_1

Li Xuan’s divine sense enveloped the mansion as he examined the formation set up by Fang Hao in detail, speaking out, “Although there are many flaws and weaknesses in the formation, given your recent comprehension of the principles of formations, your ability to set up a formation of this level is not too bad.”

Fang Hao was taken aback. He had carefully inspected everything and had not noticed any flaws or weaknesses in the formation. He said respectfully, “Disciple is foolish, I did not notice any flaws or weaknesses in the formation. Please guide me, Master!”

Li Xuan raised his hand; a beam of light landed on a particular spot in the formation.

Suddenly, a gap appeared in the formation.

“This is one… This too.”

Li Xuan pointed out the flaws and weaknesses one by one.

Fang Hao’s face was full of embarrassment. The formation he had executed, which seemed perfect at a glance, had so many shortcomings.

“Thank you, Master!”

Li Xuan looked at Fang Hao soberly and said, “The Martial Arts of the Mysterious Doors encompass formations, prohibitions, and oddities of heaven and earth. They are not separate, but fused into one – that is the true Martial Arts of the Mysterious Doors.

“You must not fall into the mistake of restricting formations within the framework of formations, and prohibitions within the framework of prohibitions.

“If that is the case, you will lose the true essence of the Martial Arts of the Mysterious Doors. I hope you understand and think about how to cultivate the Martial Arts of the Mysterious Doors, and how to explore their strength.”

Fang Hao was stunned, he realized that he had fallen into a pitfall, where he only focused on formations and forgot that formations was only one aspect of the Martial Arts of the Mysterious Doors, rather than the foundation of the sect.

“Yes, Master, disciple has understood!”

Fang Hao said respectfully.

He understood how to comprehend and wield the power of the Martial Arts of the Mysterious Doors.

“You are now aware of the storage bag, Artifact Refining can also produce similar storage tools, which are more convenient, efficient, and with larger space compared to the storage bag.

“Of course, what refining materials are needed, that is for you to figure out.”

Li Xuan thought for a moment and reminded him.

With Artifact Refining, formations and prohibitions at hand, is it not necessary to refine a Storage Ring?

“Disciple understands!”

After respectfully bowing, Fang Hao began to ponder how to remedy the flaws and weaknesses of his formation.

At the same time, he consolidated his understanding of formations, prohibitions, Artifact Refining and other insights in the Martial Arts of the Mysterious Doors, achieving true enlightenment of their essence.

…

In the grand hall of the Yuzhou Sect, more than a dozen Refining God Heavenly Men strongmen were gathered, three of whom were from the Su Family.

The one sitting at the head of the Yuzhou Sect was the Grand Elder of the sect, who had been able to elevate the Yuzhou Sect into the ranks of the top-class sects in the Ling Domain.

Even though it was at the bottom of the list, it was still considered top-class.

A powerhouse in the late stage of Refining God!

Even the Grand Elder of the Yuzhou Sect, who had been practicing in closed-door cultivation year-round and desiring to break through the peak of Refining God, was alarmed, showing the seriousness of the situation.

“Have the origins of Xu Yan and Meng Chong been found?”

The Grand Elder of the Yuzhou Sect asked solemnly.

“No!”

The Sect Master of the Yuzhou Sect’s face was extremely gloomy.

“My Su Family has no information on the origins of these two either.”

The patriarch of the Su Family also looked extremely displeased.

“Such strength at a young age, even the true inheritors of top-level sects would not be much more impressive. They must be prodigies with treasured bodies. Since they are not from Yuzhou, could they be from other states?”

The Grand Elder of the Yuzhou Sect asked gravely.

“We have already asked other state sects and noble families to assist in the investigation, but there has been no result. Those two seem to have appeared out of nowhere, and their strength was extremely formidable as soon as they appeared.

“In the tomb of the Azure Sky Flood Dragons, Xu Yan single-handedly suppressed the Azure Sky Flood Dragon’s corpse and then killed the Refining God of the Dai Family.

“Meanwhile, the Golden Armored Giant was Meng Chong. When has there ever been such a powerful cultivation technique in the Ling Domain? Who were they taught by? What is their lineage? These are key points.”

The patriarch of the Su Family remarked, with grave concern.

“Up until now, it can almost be confirmed that the two are not from any sect or noble family, but Loose Cultivators. Yet such extraordinary talents emerged amongst Loose Cultivators, and the legacy they have inherited is definitely extraordinary.

“Even with our control over Yuzhou, we still haven’t been able to locate the whereabouts of these two decisive factors right now. I find that the most daunting.”

The Sect Master of the Yuzhou Sect said solemnly.

It’s not terrifying if the enemy is powerful, what’s terrifying is if the enemy comes and goes like a shadow, and you can’t even execute them.

Even worse is when the enemy creeps up to you, undetected, which poses the real danger. Even the mighty Yuzhou Sect feels like there is a sharp sword hanging over its head.

Until Xu Yan and Meng Chong are eliminated, they will not be at ease!

In the Ling Domain of the past, one person, born humble and expelled, eventually brought crisis to the sects and noble families. Mile-strong Sects and aristocratic families that were destroyed because of him could not be counted on one hand.

It was for this reason that once they recognized the threat posed by Xu Yan, the Yuzhou Sect and the Su Family would spare no expense to eradicate him.

The Grand Elder of the Yuzhou Sect pondered before saying, “Could the origins of Xu Yan and Meng Chong be related to the remaining evil of the Ten Thousand Stars?”

The moment these words were spoken, the hearts of all the Heavenly Men present sank.

“Hard to say!”

The elder of the Su Family looked grave, “Many years ago, the Ten Thousand Star Martial Arts Academy was overthrown by our sects and noble families, but the Ten Thousand Stars did not perish, but instead fled to the Azure Sea.

“Xu Yan and Meng Chong could have been prodigies cultivated by the Ten Thousand Stars in order to return to the Eighteen States!”

The Ten Thousand Star Martial Arts Academy was once famous throughout the Eighteen states of the Ling Domain.

Although it did not belong to the Transcendent Spirit Sects, it could still be considered a top-level sect, with the property of teaching martial arts, recruiting the talented of the world as students.

At its peak, many children from first-class aristocratic families would go to the Ten Thousand Star Martial Arts Academy for training and become students of Ten Thousand Stars.
