Maybe I shouldn't die.

When Fang Yue opened her eyes, she heard the young man say:

"The contents of this jade slip are useful to me, so I will give you 500 more spiritual fruits."

He had already finished reading the jade slip. Business people often dealt with contracts, and the record about the Heavenly Dao Contract in this jade slip gave him a lot of inspiration.

The other party was willing to give more spiritual fruits, Fang Yue didn't mind, but some things had to be made clear, she said:

"This is just common sense in the cultivation world."

The boy was not surprised and said with a smile:

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to reach you."

The value of an item is determined by supply and demand.

And this was exactly what he needed.

Fang Yue no longer refused and nodded:

"Thank you for your generosity, fellow Taoist."

The subsequent transactions went smoothly.

She got 10,500 yang fruits, their seeds and planting methods, and the boy got half a tael of enlightenment tea.

As for the causes and consequences of breaking through the limits of understanding.

Both sides decided to talk while walking.

Fang Yue did not forget that their next trial task was to assist the young man in setting up a city defense formation.

There is no time to waste!

As for the time spent on the previous transaction, she divided the 500 Yin-Yang Fruits equally between her two senior brothers.

As a reward for protecting the law and delaying the other party's time.

Fu Shi and Xia Weizi did not refuse.

Can't refuse either.

The rational version of Fang Yue had a very tough attitude. She did not accept any bargaining, nor did she accept the explanations from her two senior brothers.

The two were not stubborn people, and after noticing this attitude, they immediately stopped refusing.

Again.

There is no time to waste.

-

The city was not very big. It took the young man just over a quarter of an hour to bring his fellow disciples and Tuntun to the largest trading pavilion in the city center.

The causes and consequences of breaking through the limits of understanding have been explained on the way.

She even learned from the young man how long the effects of the Three Thousand Years of Enlightenment Tea lasted.

Normally it is about half a year.

But the quality of this tea is so good, and Fang Yue’s practice of the birth of all things allowed her to absorb its medicinal properties to the maximum.

Therefore, its medicinal properties are directly doubled.

In other words, the Three Thousand Years of Enlightenment Tea can enhance her enlightenment for about a year.

Fu Shi and Xia Weizhi were relieved about this result.

A year has passed quickly.

As for the matter of the city defense formation, according to the young man, the details are too complicated to be explained in a short time, and he needs to sit down and talk slowly.

So, the group entered a private room.

After the young man waved his hand to let the servants leave, Xia Weizhi couldn't wait to say:

"Senior, I would like to ask you to clarify your doubts."

The young man no longer refused and said bluntly:

"How much do you know about this secret trial realm?"

Xia Weizhi replied:

"The secret realm was built to seal the son of the Devil's destiny, and to suppress it with the destiny of the living soul. We are here to purify the evil spirits in the city from the souls."

The young man nodded and said:

"I think you guys know my origins."

Xia Weizhi nodded and replied:

"Senior is..."

He was interrupted by the boy before he could finish his words.

"No need to compliment me, just know my origins. Then I will explain the matter of the city defense formation directly."

After he finished speaking, he paused, as if he was organizing his words.

The three brothers and sisters immediately sat up straight and acted as if they were listening attentively.

After a moment, the boy said:

“The ninety-nine of us are the vessels of destiny. We are protected by the destiny of heaven and are not disturbed by evil spirits. We also do not reincarnate like other living souls.

But time is long, and the life span of living beings is limited. In order to break the limitation, we abandon the body and live in the soul state. "

When she said this, Fang Yue suddenly spoke.

"The soul also has a lifespan."

This common sense might be a little bit unconventional, but she has read too many messy travel notes.

The young man was slightly stunned, then nodded and explained:

"The lifespan of a soul is indeed limited, but we are not ordinary souls. As early as when we entered the sealing formation, our origins were already connected to the formation. As long as the sealing formation is not broken, the soul will not perish."

Fang Yue said:

"What about after the monsters are completely purified?"

The sealing formation exists to purify monsters. Once the monsters are completely purified, the formation will naturally no longer need to exist.

At that time, what will happen to these souls whose origins have long been connected to the formation?

It's impossible that they will die instantly!

Perhaps the previous transaction really satisfied the young man, so he was in a good mood and didn't mind explaining a few more words.

"Souls that have not been completely polluted will enter the cycle of reincarnation. As for those that have been completely polluted, they will be purified by the formation at the moment the monster is completely purified."

When he said this, he paused for a moment before adding:

"A soul that has been completely polluted is equivalent to a monster's incarnation. It is impossible for such a being to be allowed to survive."

This may be the reason why the trial continues every fifty years.

The Heavenly Dao requires the trial-taker to clear the evil spirit from the soul.

Fang Yue nodded slightly and asked again:

"Why do we need the Son of Fortune as the trial-taker?"

The boy's tone was still gentle:

"I have said before that those who are protected by the destiny of heaven will not be contaminated by evil spirits."

Fang Yue: "Is this one of the rules of the sealing formation?"

There are no such rules in the human-demon battlefield.

Well, I have never heard of such a rule in the world of Minglan.

The young man nodded.

"Yes."

Fang Yue asked again:

"For a soul like yours who has inherited the fate of Heaven, the ending should be different!"

The young man was surprised at Fang Yue's sharpness, but still nodded and said:

“We’ll have more options.”

As for what the choice was, he did not intend to elaborate, but said:

"Back to business."

Seeing this, Fang Yue did not ask any more questions and continued to pretend to listen attentively.

The young man smiled with satisfaction, and then continued:

"We, the ninety-nine carriers of luck, also need to assist the four guarding spirits in maintaining this formation."

Xia Weizhi asked:

"The formation of this city is part of the sealing formation?"

His tone was full of uncertainty. After all, none of the three brothers and sisters were good at formations.

The boy smiled and shook his head:

"That's not the case. I just researched this formation myself."

Xia Weizhi breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"You continue."

Fortunately, it’s not a sealing formation.

The boy didn't mind and continued with a smile:

"This formation was inspired by the maintenance of the sealing formation, and was developed in combination with my own avenue."

He paused here before continuing:

“The formation is based on the business luck of the entire city and is used to resist the power of the Purifying Blood Moon.

If the formation can be successfully completed, then the souls in this city will no longer be tortured by the blood moon in the future."

When he said the last sentence, his eyes were full of light.

Hearing this, Xia Weizhi couldn't help but take a breath.

"That formation should be very complicated, right?"

The young man shook his head:

"It's not complicated. The preparations have been completed. It's just that I can't activate this formation by myself. Of course, the most important thing is that I need a cultivator who practices the creation of all things to control the demonic energy."
