Formation Arrangement

Blood Transformation, Heavenly Passage, Spirit Transformation, and Engravement. These four realms were everything for many creatures because even if they spent their entire lives pursuing these realms, it would still be difficult for them to break through!

This was like four great mountains, each higher than the last. The further one went, the more difficult the path became. It was like a small path carved into a cliff, and it was more difficult than reaching the blue sky.

This was especially true for the human race. Cultivation was extremely difficult. If not for the ancient pathfinders who imitated other races’ primitive symbols, they might not even have their current path.

It was clear that this path was full of dangers. It was constructed from blood and sweat, and as generations passed, it eventually became wider and wider.

For human cultivators, the four great cultivation realms represented almost everything. Breaking through this category was easier said than done. Even if they used their entire lives to break through, they still have to walk a long way.

Shi Hao was only fourteen years old, but he had broken into the fifth great cultivation realm, which was incredible. At the very least, it was already a magnificent feat in the human race. If news of this got out, it would shake the world.

Formation Arrangement was an extremely profound great realm. Those who were able to reach this step were mostly people who no longer had their youth. With the passage of time, how could there be any youth left?

Shi Hao stood on a tall peak, overlooking the boundless great earth. The mountain ranges were lush and verdant, overlapping one another. These mountains and rivers were extremely vast, but they couldn’t stop his thoughts.

He finally advanced again. Now, in the wasteland region, he could definitely be considered an expert, regardless of which clan he was from.

A fourteen-year-old king was a true supreme youth without the slightest bit of exaggeration. In the entire great wastelands, it was difficult to find a second person like that.

At the later stages of the Engravement Realm, a few outstanding individuals could become kings. Shi Hao broke away from this realm and entered an even higher level, so he could naturally remove the “Lord” in his title and become a true king.

“Formation Arrangement is a special realm, which is extremely complex and profound. Everyone’s final accomplishments will be different, and only those who truly understand it can rise up.”

Shi Hao said to himself. The more he understood, the more he felt that cultivation wasn’t easy. After entering this cultivation realm, he understood the difficulties ahead.

If the Engravement Realm was imitating other races to engrave symbols within the body and make preliminary deductions, then the Formation Arrangement Realm was an even higher level of evolution, which was to use these patterns.

Formation Arrangement was the engraving of formations within one’s body. What kind of concept was this? Compared to the fighting strength of the previous cultivation realm, it was definitely much higher!

There weren’t many creatures who truly dared to carve complex formations within their bodies. All of them carried out clan inheritances and inherited safety formations that lacked originality.

Formation Arrangement was a dividing line. Quite a few people only carved a few simple precious technique formations, yet it was already considered a success. Only a small number of people made great achievements in this realm by forming endless killing formations.

Afterward, the difference in strength between the two would be worlds apart.

As a result, even though some people were all in the Formation Arrangement Realm, at the end, the difference was extremely great.

“Willow Deity says that there aren’t many creatures who truly understand formations. What are formations? They’re a type of creation and a magnificent feat. It definitely isn’t as simple as carving formations within the body,” Shi Hao said softly as he thought about it.

Then, he jumped off the mountain peak and walked toward Stone Village. He had just broken through to the Formation Arrangement Realm, so he didn’t rush to cultivate. Instead, he was extremely relaxed.

“Uncle Hao, you came back!” A snotty little child ran over. Right now, Shi Hao was definitely the village’s child’s favorite person.

It was because he could bring a group of little fellows to run all over the mountains and plains, enter the depths of the great wastelands, dig out the nests of vicious birds, and catch descendants’ young.

On top of the wall, a little purple squirrel squeaked. There was a vertical eye on its forehead.

Woof! Not far away, the three Lightning Hounds turned into golden light and quickly ran over. Even though they were only half a meter long, their speed was astonishing. Electric arcs curled about them.

In midair, birds were chirping. The Scarlet Feathered Crane flapped its wings, not knowing how to fly yet. It glided down from the branches, swirling with multicolored light.

More than half a year ago, Shi Hao brought a group of children into the mountains, bringing back these strange creatures. All of them were growing up quite well.

One could imagine that an army of vicious birds and fierce beasts might appear in the future!

“Uncle Hao, when are we going to enter the mountains again?” A child asked. He really wanted to wander around the great wastelands. For them, those mysterious and vicious lands were too tempting.

Not only would there be herbs and spiritual fruits to pick, but there might even be a few young vicious beasts.

“You all should seize the time to cultivate. Whoever improves the fastest will be brought into the mountains,” Shi Hao said with a smile.

He explained the cultivation method to a few children and carefully taught them for most of the day. Only when it was time to eat did this group of lively little fellows leave.

From the sky, bird cries rang out. Several enormous vicious birds descended, bringing with them strong winds. They were precisely the Great Peng, Zi Yun, and Xiao Qing, descendants of the Green Scaled Eagle. However, they had long mutated, and their bloodlines were powerful.

This type of change was inseparable from the Willow Deity. The three strange birds had lived under the willow tree since they were young. They were becoming more and more mystical and had opened up their ancestral bloodline inheritance.

“Zi Yun, you all have to remember this carefully. I’ll teach you a few things,” said Shi Hao.

The three strange birds had grown up, and their abilities were quite powerful. However, Shi Hao believed that they still didn’t obtain the Archaic Devil Bird Green Sky Peng’s ultimate inheritance, so he wanted to make up for it.

His first precious technique was obtained from the three young birds and had received great enlightenment. Now, it was time to repay them.

The Green Sky Peng was just like the Golden Winged Peng and was the most powerful existence among the descendants of the Kun Peng. Shi Hao now had the Kun Peng technique, so he could find a method that was suitable for Zi Yun and the others.

“Is this our ancestral method?!” Zi Yun and the others were stupefied, and then they became incomparably excited. Even though their bloodlines had revived, there were only fragments left of the inheritance. It had long been incomplete, but now, they saw this shocking thing.

For several days in a row, Shi Hao taught them and broke down the demonic birds’ inheritances, engraving them into their hearts so that they could slowly comprehend them.

In the end, Aunt Green Scaled Eagle also returned. She carefully listened, and her comprehension was deep. She began to enter seclusion.

In the following days, Shi Hao cultivated on his own while teaching the children. He also distributed the precious artifacts he brought back from the outside world to his clansmen.

A streak of golden light scuttled over. Hairy Ball returned, and there was also the big red bird and Second Baldy.

The three creatures were all over the place, and it really wasn’t easy to see them because they were always in the great wastelands, searching for supreme divine treasuries.

Shi Hao thought of something and stared at Hairy Ball with expectation. Ever since he learned from the little red bird in the Fire Clan’s ancestral land that the mountain treasure had fallen into the Zhuyan’s hands, he had been looking forward to it.

“Hairy Ball, where did you put the mountain treasure?”

He eagerly observed Hairy Ball and noticed that a bit of its broken patterns were regenerated, but there wasn’t anything else.

Hairy Ball was extremely curious and expressed its confusion.

In the end, Shi Hao brought it with him into the no man’s land. Back then, not a blade of grass grew, and everything was withered and desolate. Now, the plants had long become abundant, reviving life force.

This was a dried-up great lake without any water. Shi Hao returned there and searched carefully.

There was a hole at the bottom of the lake. Back then, Hairy Ball was buried here. As soon as Shi Hao arrived, he was shocked, because someone had searched this place before.

The dry and hard layer of mud at the bottom of the lake had been dug up, leaving obvious marks. Someone had dug deep into the ground.

Hairy Ball cried out loudly, and then it fiercely grabbed its own fur. It seemed to have thought of something and spoke to Shi Hao in his mind, “I have something hidden here. It’s gone!”

“Damn it! Someone beat us to it!” Shi Hao’s heart sank.

Hairy Ball was furious. Even though it was only the size of a fist, it emitted an extremely powerful fluctuation. Its golden fur stood on end, and its fiery eyes shot out two beams of light.

The most shocking thing was that it actually developed three heads and six arms. The bones within its body stretched out and kept making noises.

“Ah…” Hairy Ball cried out loudly, unable to restrain its anger.

Shi Hao was stupefied, and then he became excited. Was Hairy Ball going to recover? It had activated such a great divine ability. Upon closer inspection, the damaged symbols within its body were repaired.

“It’s Zhuyan’s precious technique, Three Heads Six Arms Divine Ability!”

Having found nothing here, Shi Hao returned to Stone Village and carefully studied Hairy Ball. It still couldn’t remember the past, but its fighting strength had increased by a large amount.

“Hairy Ball, teach me the precious technique.” Shi Hao’s mood wasn’t affected by the mountain treasure. Instead, he was looking forward to it.

“Good. Zhuyan’s technique is definitely one of the best,” said the Willow Deity.

In the following half month, Shi Hao carefully studied the technique. He memorized Hairy Ball’s recovered symbols and began to comprehend them.

The divine ability of Three Heads Six Arms alone was enough to shake up the wasteland region. This precious technique was extremely powerful. Back then, even the ancient experts were envious.

Unfortunately, Hairy Ball still didn’t recover in the end. Shi Hao only obtained a portion of the technique, but just this portion alone was much more powerful than the Archaic Descendant’s precious technique.

In the following months, Shi Hao cultivated diligently and stayed in Stone Village. He would occasionally bring the children into the mountains to pick precious medicines and hunt beasts.

During this period of time, he cultivated the Zhuyan Technique and gained another divine ability!

“Hairy Ball, I’ll help you recover sooner or later. You’ll have all of your divine might,” said Shi Hao.

Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, another two months passed. Shi Hao was almost fifteen years old, and his foundation was solidified. His strength steadily increased, and the divine abilities he obtained were all deduced to the extreme.

“Uncle Hao, what kind of fist technique is this?” A little boy asked.

“Lightning Fist!” Shi Hao replied, explaining for them. These were symbols he found from the Lightning Hound’s body, and he imparted them to the children.

Unfortunately, this method wasn’t of much use to him. In the end, it was merged into the Suan Ni’s precious technique, increasing the power of some lightning.

Apart from this, there were a few other minor divine abilities that he merged with to increase the power of the precious techniques he grasped.

At the entrance of the village, the willow tree was full of life. Eighty-one willow branches shone, green and sparkling as they dangled. It was extremely hazy, and there was chaotic energy swirling about.

Under the tree, Shi Hao sat down. His eyes were closed, his mind wandering. He was studying beast skin.

This was something he obtained in the Void God Realm. Not only was there a saint’s sword intent on it, there was also a sealed small world. He wanted to open it up and study it thoroughly.

Suddenly, the willow tree swayed, and the chaotic energy it released became even stronger, immediately surrounding this place. The willow spoke to Shi Hao.

“The great chaos of the wasteland region is coming!”

“What?” Shi Hao opened his eyes. Recently, he had been sitting under the tree and forgetting the passage of time. When he suddenly received this news, he was extremely shocked. Was this day finally going to come?
