Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 634: Detection

Three powerful Sea Clan experts gazed into the direction of Red Rock Valley, watching the defenses there gradually strengthen, turning it into an impregnable fortress under the management of the Taiyi Sect. Meng Zhang was surprised to find that since Taiyi Sect occupied Red Rock Valley, only a few scattered Sea Clan experts would occasionally observe from afar. The vast Sea Clan army he had imagined had yet to arrive.

Though uncertain about the movements of the Sea Clan's main force, it made him somewhat uneasy. However, the fact that the enemy's large army hadn't appeared was a good thing. The more time Taiyi Sect had, the stronger they could make the defenses.

Understanding the critical importance of Red Rock Valley, he knew it was highly likely that they would face a frenzied attack from the Sea Clan's main force in the near future. Therefore, while reinforcing the defenses, Taiyi Sect spared no effort and spared no expense.

Thanks to the existence of the Mother-Child Transmission Disc, communication between Red Rock Valley and Taiyi Sect's main gate, Hundred Grass Slope, remained remarkably smooth. Whether it was personnel deployment or the transport of resources, it was all done with high efficiency.

After a long period of hard work, the Deep EarthSpirit General and the Formation Masters from the Formations Hall finally adjusted the Six Spirits Golden Light Formation, rectifying the previous flaws.

Though several Sea Clan experts observed from a distance, they didn't dare to approach too closely due to their previous disastrous defeat, let alone disrupt Taiyi Sect's plans.

Seeing that they had ample time and having a new idea, the Deep EarthSpirit General made a plan. The Third Rank spirit vein in Red Rock Valley was of extremely high quality, and supplying the operation of a Third Rank defense great formation would not burden it significantly.

After a quick calculation, the Deep EarthSpirit General realized that even adding another Third Rank protection great formation, the spiritual energy supply would still be more than sufficient.

With this in mind, he decided to employ the art of array embedding to set up another Third Rank protection great formation within the Six Spirits Golden Light Formation. The combination of two Third Rank great formations would not be as simple as one plus one. Instead, they could synergize and complement each other's weaknesses, greatly enhancing the power of both great formations.

Deep EarthSpirit General mentioned this idea to Meng Zhang, who readily agreed. He entrusted the entire matter to Deep EarthSpirit General, granting him full authority. The main gate's treasury of Taiyi Sect was completely open to him, allowing him to freely choose any materials he needed.

Having already planned it out, Deep EarthSpirit General wasted no time and took immediate action upon receiving Meng Zhang's authorization. Using the Mother-Child Transmission Disc, he returned to Taiyi Sect's main gate, Hundred Grass Slope, and called upon the steward responsible for guarding the treasury to cooperate in obtaining various materials.

Fortunately, after many years of development, Taiyi Sect had accumulated substantial wealth. With Third Rank Formation Masters and Third Rank tool refiners among its ranks, they always made provisions for the future, adding to the sect's savings.

Within a short time, Deep EarthSpirit General returned to Red Rock Valley with a group of disciples, carrying a large amount of array materials. The Six Spirits Golden Light Formation had sufficient defensive power but lacked attack capabilities. Therefore, Deep EarthSpirit General planned to make up for this deficiency by setting up a Heavenly Wind Silver Rain Great Formation.

While deploying the Six Spirits Golden Light Formation, the Deep EarthSpirit General conducted further surveys of Red Rock Valley, gaining deeper insights into the surrounding geography, underground veins, and the specific conditions of the spirit vein.

After careful consideration and taking into account the actual situation of Taiyi Sect, he decided to set up the Heavenly Wind Silver Rain Great Formation. As a Third Rank mountain protection great formation, the Heavenly Wind Silver Rain Great Formation not only had good defensive capabilities but also emphasized counterattacks, combining offense and defense, and concealed deadly tricks. When the great formation was activated, it would unleash gusts of heavenly wind that could corrode bones and dissolve gold, making it extremely difficult to defend against. The silver rain falling from the sky was like numerous miniature flying swords, unstoppable and incredibly powerful.

The art of array embedding was an extremely profound secret technique within the realm of formations. Even many experienced Third Rank Formation Masters couldn't grasp its essence.

Deep EarthSpirit General's primary occupation was a Geomancer, and becoming a Formation Master was just one of the prerequisites for advancing as a Geomancer. Compared to truly professional and skilled Formation Masters, Geomancers didn't necessarily have any advantage in the field of formations.

However, Deep EarthSpirit General had an extraordinary background and rich experience, enabling him to master this secret technique and successfully employ it.

In the Cultivation World, having an old expert within a sect was akin to possessing a precious treasure. Such elders represented the sect's vital heritage.

The disciples of Taiyi Sect who had arrived at Red Rock Valley were all busy performing their respective tasks, striving to build up more resistance power before the arrival of the Sea Clan's main force.

At present, Meng Zhang was unsure of the movements of the Sea Clan's main force, and the scouts, Zheng Chao and Shocking ThunderSpirit General, hadn't sent back any valuable information.

Zheng Chao headed west, in the direction of the sea. Along the way, he discovered some small outposts established by the Sea Clan and encountered several Sea Clan teams traversing the vast desert.

His goal was not to deal with them, so he didn't bother with them and continued westward to find traces of the Sea Clan's main force.

On the other hand, Shocking ThunderSpirit General headed east and occasionally discovered traces of battles. These were the remains of monster lairs that had been removed by the Sea Clan's main force, with blood stains and many unattended monster carcasses scattered outside.

Throughout his journey, he carefully investigated the sky and found no trace of the Sea Clan's main force on the ground except for some temporary Sea Clan outposts and occasional patrols.

Understanding the enemy's movements was crucial to helping the sect make the next decision. This thought flashed through Shocking ThunderSpirit General's mind. Without hesitation, he continued flying eastward to search for traces of the Sea Clan's main force.

In terms of true Cultivation Base, the four Guardian Spirit Generals had only recovered to the early stage of Gold Core. However, in terms of combat power, as special dao soldiers specialized in battles, they had the ability to challenge higher-level opponents and could rival mid-stage Gold Core cultivators.

Moreover, due to their rich combat experience and endless secret techniques, as long as they were not facing cultivators from major sects with special legacies, they had a significant advantage against ordinary Gold Core cultivators.

Each of the four Guardian Spirit Generals had their unique strengths and special abilities. The long years of survival had taught them many peculiar skills.

Among Shocking ThunderSpirit General's various specialties, what he was most proud of was not his art of crafting, but his speed.

The name "Shocking Thunder" referred not only to the thunder-rooted foundational technique he practiced but also to his incredibly fast speed, swift as a thunderbolt. Once he started moving, he was like a Shocking Thunder descending, incredibly fast and unstoppable.

During his peak, Shocking ThunderSpirit General's speed was unmatched among Gold Core cultivators, making him invincible. Even with his current early-stage Gold Core Cultivation Base, few cultivators at the late-stage Gold Core could catch up to him when he fled for his life.

It was precisely because of this reliance that he dared to continue flying eastward openly, unafraid of being besieged by powerful Sea Clan experts.
