Xiuxian: I studied abroad in modern times

Chapter 635 Strolling leisurely, entering the great formation together

Hearing Qing Nu's mutterings, the Moon Fairy shook her head and transmitted her voice, "This Sect Leader Zheng himself wants to go out, otherwise, is he just waiting to die here?"

"Too."

"It's just too much of a waste of time." Fairy Taiyin said impatiently, "Even if he doesn't give up, his performance in the formation is really too poor. Why don't we continue the deduction ourselves?"

Looking at Zheng Fa, who was standing motionless like a dumb goose, Qing Shen nodded in agreement, her expression very serious: "The jellyfish... are still waiting for us."

Just as she was about to speak, Ni Chang Yuanjun seemed to realize something and transmitted her voice to the two of them, saying, "Please let Sect Leader Zheng try again."

"Ok?"

The Moon Fairy and the Green Maiden looked towards the Rainbow Lady.

"Lord Taiyin, Lord Qingnu..." Ni Chang Yuanjun lowered her head, seemingly somewhat uneasy, "Sect Leader Zheng is by no means a person without a plan. There must be a reason for his actions."

"..."

"I implore you two gentlemen to give Sect Leader Zheng some more time, for the sake of your disciple."

The Moon Fairy and the Green Maiden exchanged a glance, then looked at the Rainbow Robe Sovereign, their brows furrowed, their voices filled with deep doubt: "What kind of bewitching potion did Zheng Fa give you? He's just a rogue immortal, it's understandable that he can't break the formation, and I won't blame him, it's just that it delayed our deductions."

Ni Chang Yuanjun shook her head slightly, quite frankly: "This disciple can't say either."

"Your Excellencies are wise. I was one of the first people from Yaochi to come into contact with the Jiushan Sect, and I have a very good understanding of Sect Leader Zheng and the Jiushan Sect."

"The more you understand someone, the more you trust them..."

Ni Chang Yuanjun looked at Taiyin Xianzi with a hint of pleading in her voice: "Sect Leader Zheng is the most reliable ally I have ever met. This disciple is willing to guarantee his life with my own life."

The Moon Fairy remained silent for a while, then nodded to Qing Nu. The two did not speak, but continued to watch Zheng Fa observe the formation in the chaos.

again and again.

Zheng Fa remained motionless as before, only to be thrown back by the great formation.

The Moon Fairy shook her head repeatedly as she looked at the scene. She then looked at the Rainbow Lady, who was also biting her lip, seemingly anxious.

……

Within the Nine Mountains Realm, the Heavenly Emperor looked at Senior Sister Zhang and asked, "Is the model complete?"

Senior Sister Zhang did not answer, but her expression was confident. She pointed to the array plate beside her, and thirty-six flying stars appeared on the array plate, exactly the same as the one in front of Zheng Fa.

……

"Again."

Zheng Fa opened and closed his eyes, and two images appeared before him: one of the Heavenly Emperor holding the Heavenly Evolution Array Disc, and the other of the chaos before him.

The Moon Fairy was somewhat numb and didn't even look at him. She simply pointed her finger, and three planets flew towards Zheng Fa.

Zheng Fa glanced at it and took a step forward.

The three Fairies of Taiyin were taken aback and looked at Zheng Fa. This was the first time Zheng Fa had moved after trying so many times!
"correct!"

Qingnu first gasped in surprise, then covered her mouth as if afraid of disturbing Zheng Fa.

Ni Chang Yuan Jun looked at Zheng Fa intently, her expression beaming with joy.

"Please add one more, fairy."

Zheng Fa, who was in the formation, remained calm, and even spoke with a hint of politeness.

The Moon Fairy didn't speak, but with a light tap of her finger, another star flew towards Zheng Fa.

"You got it right again!"

Although she didn't want to disturb Zheng Fa, Qing Nu couldn't help but stare and sigh softly.

"Please add another one..."

"Please come again..."

"Please add more..."

"please……"

The Moon Fairy remained silent, her eyes growing ever brighter until she finally spoke: "The eighth one!"

Qingnu and Nishang Yuanjun exchanged a glance, now not daring to even breathe loudly.

They had tried so many times before, but at most they had only reached the eighth move.

This achievement was merely a flash in the pan, largely due to luck, and could not be considered a breakthrough in the formation at all; it was simply a lucky break.

But Zheng Fa now gives them a strange feeling—he can.

Zheng Fa glanced at the stars flying towards him, turned his body, and easily stood at the Gate of Life.

"..." The Moon Fairy's pupils contracted, as if she had finally discovered something, and she said softly, "He is waiting."

"wait?"

"He...stood at the Gate of Life first, faster than these planets."

"..."

The two women were startled and carefully observed Zheng Fa's movements. Only then did they discover the clue—even though the difference was only a moment, their cultivation level allowed them to clearly judge that Zheng Fa was indeed one step faster than these stars.

He wasn't breaking through formations, but rather leading a dance, his movements as leisurely as if he were strolling to a position. These planets were his most obedient backup dancers, rushing around him at his will.

"This..." Qing Nu looked at the planets and asked, "Did he cast a spell on these planets?"

The Moon Fairy shook her head, it was unclear whether she was denying it or also didn't understand.

"Please have another one..."

Looking at Zheng Fazhen's carefree demeanor within the formation, Qing Nu couldn't help but mutter softly, even gritting her teeth: "He's so relaxed... what about all the torture we suffered before?"

"..."

The Moon Fairy fell silent for a long time before finally saying, "This Sect Leader Zheng... no wonder Ni Chang is willing to trust him so much."

Qingnu glanced at Ni Chang Yuanjun, who was looking at Zheng Fa with great enthusiasm and pride. Qingnu nodded and said, "She does have good taste."

The three watched as more and more stars appeared around Zheng Fa, yet his movements remained as light as ever, and his speed in breaking the formation did not slow down at all. Just as the Moon Fairy had observed before, with the help of Senior Sister Zhang's deductions, Zheng Fa knew the trajectory of these planets even earlier than they did!

The Moon Fairy suddenly frowned. "Is he willing to help us?"

Qingnu was stunned for a moment, then fell silent as well.

After all, this Sect Leader Zheng was not from Yaochi. His encounter with them was more like a chance meeting. As for friendship and trust, the two of them had absolutely no connection with Zheng Fa.

“There’s a connection between Ni Chang and him…”

The Moon Fairy shook her head slightly.

Qingnu knew this was risky, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly said, "We are Golden Immortals, while he is merely a Loose Immortal. Why should we be afraid that he will disobey us?"

"That's how it is here, but once we're in the battle formation, if he does something slightly, we'll be in big trouble."

Qing Nu frowned, unable to utter a rebuttal. After a moment, she heard the Taiyin Fairy sigh and say, "We can only trade with him for the essence of the Taiyin Laurel Tree."

"This..." Qing Nu's expression changed, as if she knew that the laurel source was precious and wanted to stop her. "If it were any other time, it would be fine, but if you consume the source now, your cultivation will be greatly damaged... even your foundation will be affected."

The Moon Fairy gritted her teeth and whispered, "You know the jellyfish's condition. If this drags on any longer, something bad might happen."

Qingnu opened and closed her mouth, her expression growing increasingly strange: "Didn't you already refuse before?"

The Moon Fairy's expression grew increasingly awkward—she had spoken too soon.

When she refused before, she didn't expect that this Sect Leader Zheng was so powerful!
"After I give away my essence, I'm afraid I'll have no power left to help..." the Moon Fairy instructed. "Remember to protect me, and... be careful of Zheng Fa."

"I see."

Qing Nu's expression turned serious, the innocent girl's demeanor from before completely gone.

Thirty-six!

The cheers of the Goddess of the Rainbow Robe reached my ears.

Zheng Fa slowly emerged from the life gate of the formation, his clothes perfectly smooth and relaxed. The two exchanged a glance and smiled, bowing to Zheng Fa and saying, "Sect Leader Zheng's deductive skills are truly astounding..."

This wasn't due to his ability; if you had a Heavenly Evolution Array Plate, you could have done it just as easily. Therefore, Zheng Fa didn't take credit, but instead thanked the three of them, saying, "I must thank you for your patience, Fairy."

Upon hearing this, Ni Chang Yuan Jun couldn't help but steal a glance at Tai Yin Xian Zi and the other two, her expression revealing a hint of seeking praise.

“It was Ni Chang who persuaded you.” Fairy Taiyin glanced at Ni Chang Yuanjun, seemingly wanting Zheng Fa to remember this good deed, and bluntly stated, “She vouched for you with her own life.”

Zheng Fa was stunned for a moment before looking at Ni Chang Yuanjun and solemnly cupping his hands: "Thank you, Yuanjun."

"It's just a matter of a few words." Ni Chang Yuanjun waved her hand. "The sect leader saved my life, and besides, I'm doing this so I can get out."

Seeing that the atmosphere was improving, Fairy Taiyin seized the opportunity to express her thoughts: "Sect Leader Zheng has already broken the formation here, so it should be time to try the real grand formation..."

Zheng Fa nodded slightly. This was just a simulation. In the real Zhou Tian Star Array, there might be other problems.

"We hope that Sect Leader Zheng can release the jellyfish from the formation."

That's alright.

He didn't know whether the jellyfish was friend or foe, but this person probably had some minor grudge against Leiyin Temple... From a strategic point of view, Zheng Fa was also willing to cause Lu Yao some trouble.

Just as he was about to agree, he heard the Moon Fairy continue, "I am willing to repay you with the essence of the Moon Laurel."

"..."

Zheng Fa looked up at the Moon Fairy and saw that she looked uneasy, no longer as decisive and resolute as before.

Looking at the anxious and uneasy Ni Chang Yuan Jun, Zheng Fa slowly nodded and said, "If I had the ability, I would naturally rescue the jellyfish."

"As long as you, Master Zheng, rescue the jellyfish, I will immediately send you the essence of the Taiyin Laurel Tree."

……

After discussing the matter, Zheng Fa, the Moon Fairy, and the other two stepped out of the palace and looked towards the chaos.

It was a chaotic, pitch-black void.

"Where is this great formation..." Ni Chang Yuan Jun murmured, looking up with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

The Moon Fairy chuckled softly, pointed her finger upwards, and a beam of moonlight shot from her fingertip, sweeping across the chaos.

One by one, stars emerged from the chaos.

“We were already within the formation,” the Moon Fairy explained. “It’s just that this place is an entrance to the formation, so we weren’t affected by it.”

Zheng Fa carefully examined the positions of the stars in the chaos, transmitted them to Senior Sister Zhang, and then asked, "Where is the jellyfish?"

"We don't know either."

The Moon Fairy and the Green Maiden exchanged a glance: "We only know that Lady Jellyfish should still be in the formation, but due to the limitations of chaos, we don't know her location. Moreover..."

The Moon Fairy's tone was somewhat hesitant.

"what?"

After thinking for a long time, the Moon Fairy continued, "Jellyfish, she seems to be in bad shape."

Ni Chang Yuan Jun was startled, and Zheng Fa also listened attentively.

Jellyfish is no small figure after all. If something goes wrong, it may not have a big impact on him personally, but it will have a big impact on the situation in Xuanwei, and naturally it will also affect the Nine Mountains Sect.

"For a period of time, we completely lost contact with the jellyfish."

"what!"

“We didn’t care at first, until something happened at Yaochi Wonderland, so we went to find the jellyfish and ended up here together.”

Zheng Fa frowned.

Noticing that the Moon Fairy and the others had mentioned a period of time, they simply asked, "And now?"

“Now I’ve reconnected with Qing Nu, but the jellyfish must be very weak right now…” Fairy Taiyin said worriedly, “The feeling we get is not right.”

The Lady of the Rainbow Robes grew increasingly anxious.

Zheng Fa's heart sank.

He suddenly realized something: the Jade Pool Wonderland was gone.

The people of Yaochi are now mostly Buddhists.

How much of an impact will this have on jellyfish?

Thinking of this, Zheng Fa became more cautious, but he didn't say much—after all, he was surrounded by people from Yaochi.

"The best course of action now is to enter the formation first." He thought for a moment and then said to the three fairies, "Please forgive my rudeness, fairies."

"what?"

The Moon Fairy was stunned for a moment, then saw that the Rainbow Lady was extremely skilled, turning her back to Zheng Fa.

Zheng Fa had already transformed into the form of a golden-winged roc, and with a flick of his claws, he hooked the ribbon of Ni Chang Yuan Jun's skirt.

...The Moon Fairy's lips twitched. Such an awkward position, are you two that familiar with each other?
Seeing that the two, the Moon Fairy and the Golden-Winged Roc, did not move, turned his head and looked over, as if urging them.

After hesitating for a long time, the Moon Fairy still insisted, "We can keep up on our own."

"I'm not worried that the two fairies' escape techniques are inadequate, but rather that communication might be poor and the two fairies might not be able to react."

"..."

A moment later, Zheng Fa spread his wings, and the three Fairy Taiyin hung on his claws, with only silence between them.

The Golden-Winged Roc broke through the chaos with its wings and headed towards the very center of the thirty-six stars.

This week, the remnant array of stars seemed to be alarmed and began to operate at high speed, with the stars around them spinning wildly.

"Time seems to be speeding up!"

Zheng Fa's heart tightened; this real Star Array had given him a rude awakening.

The flow of time here seems to be 360 ​​times faster than at the Nine Mountains Sect!
This poses a huge challenge to Senior Sister Zhang's deduction speed, his reaction speed, and their seamless teamwork.

Zheng Fa was completely focused, following the changes in the celestial bodies and the location of the Gate of Life closely, not daring to relax for the slightest.

If it weren't for the extraordinary Heavenly Evolution Array Plate and Senior Sister Zhang's advancement to Loose Immortal, he would have been trapped in the array long ago.

……

"The Underworld must have a Heavenly Evolution Array Plate." The Nine Nether Emperor stood on Yin Mountain, his tone resolute.

Yan Changge and the others stood aside, all nodding.

A few days ago, Master Zhang Wuyi came to the Underworld to test the effect of the Heavenly Evolution Array Plate on reincarnation.

Well, it wasn't until Master Zhang left that they realized what kind of miserable life they had been living.

According to their current view... the Underworld can do without the Nine Nether Emperor, but it cannot do without the Heavenly Evolution Array Plate.

"But... the Nine Mountains Sect said that even if they were willing to support us in building the Heavenly Evolution Array Plate, we couldn't afford the costs."

The Netherworld Immortal looked distressed.

The people looked at each other, all on the verge of tears; the underworld was truly impoverished.

The operation of the Heavenly Evolution Array Plate requires resources. While other places are fine, Reincarnation is responsible for all the Yin Souls in the myriad realms, so the workload is unimaginable, and the consumption of resources is naturally exaggerated.

"I can use my savings to cover it first... I think the Nine Mountains Sect even pays salaries?"

“This is not a long-term solution,” Yan Changge advised. “Besides, this salary isn’t enough to cover the expenses of the entire Underworld.”

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"I heard that Master Pang of the Nine Mountains Sect has already arrived with an exploration team," Yan Changge said. "Perhaps they can..."

"I am the Lord of the Underworld. Do you think I wouldn't know what treasures the Underworld holds?" Emperor Jiuyou shook his head. "If that True Immortal Pang really discovers something valuable, whatever the Nine Mountains Sect wants, I will give it to them!"
