Jiang Lin was curious when he heard that. “Why is everyone accepting Little Master-Uncle now?”
“There’s no one else who can break the immortal abode’s Restriction. Little Master-Uncle is the only one who can do it,” Zhou Yuanhao sighed.
“Also, Little Master-Uncle’s personality is more than enough to change one’s mind.” Zhao Qinghe smiled.
“That’s good.” Jiang Lin let out a sigh of relief. “It’s better to live together peacefully.”
“Yeah, we should ignore the rumors other people are spreading.” Sun Changrong agreed.
“Don’t look at me. I never had anything against Little Master-Uncle. I didn’t even join you guys last time.” Jiang Lin shook his head. “All we Wine Celestial lineage look for every time is the liquid we are drinking.”
The rest laughed.
What Jiang Lin had said was right. Out of all the peaks in the Luo Sheng Sword School, Wine Celestial Peak had the least competition, while other peaks always fought against each other.
The biggest reason was that the Wine Celestial lineage had the attitude of ancient cultivators, all of whom were focused on their training.
That was why most disciples were on friendly terms with Wine Celestial Peak.
Of course, they also sought after the good wine the peak had.
Once a cultivator had established its foundation, eating was no longer necessary.
The food of the mortal world would become tasteless to them, and not all of them found spirit food tasty.
The only thing they all loved was the wine produced by Wine Celestial Peak. The liquor was known all around the world for being the most favored.
The atmosphere eased up after Jiang Lin’s arrival.
Even Zhang Kui paused his research and asked for some good wine from Jiang Lin.
Because of that, the ruin was livelier than before.
Time passed quickly, and no disciples from other peaks arrived after Jiang Lin.
Instead of guarding the aisle, Zhang Qinghe started to have friendly matches with other disciples daily.
Even Li Yifei paused his Restriction studies and joined the matches as well.
More than ten days had passed, and the day that Chen Jingzhai had mentioned had arrived.
All of them gathered at the Second Palace.
Chen Jingzhai stood in front of the fifth seal of the door for a long time.
“Although I’m not familiar with formations, I know that breaking a Restriction takes a toll on the divine mind.”
“Then, won’t Little Master-Uncle be extremely exhausted since he has been standing here for 20 straight days?” Jiang Lin asked in a low voice.
“The scripture of Daoxuan Peak is also known as the Ultimate Guide to Formations,” Sun Changrong explained with a smile. “To us, breaking a formation is also a form of training. So although he’s exhausting his divine mind, he’s also recovering at the same time.”
“Little Master-Uncle won’t have to worry about exhausting his divine mind once he has comprehended the Restriction’s core,” Li Yifei added. “But, even now, I still don’t understand how he broke the Restriction.”
Li Yifei had been studying the fourth Restriction for the past ten days and still couldn’t break it.
The Restriction was complex, and there was another layer after the fourth one. It felt as if there was no end to it.
When comparing his achievement to Chen Jingzhai’s, it was natural for Li Yifei to feel a little depressed.
“Everyone has their own fate. So there’s no need for you to force yourself,” Jiang Lin said. “Privacy is important in the Path of Celestials, and trying to pry into one’s matter is a serious violation, especially when it’s our Master-Uncle’s matter.”
“You are mistaken. I didn’t mean that,” Li Yifei replied.
“Now that we are bringing Little Master-Uncle up, doesn’t it feel like Daoxuan Peak’s scripture isn’t the only scripture he has learned?” Chu Jingsong asked. “I can’t believe he’s able to absorb more essence power than me!”
“I’ve heard about this from my master,” Sun Changrong said. “It seems he has also walked the Path of Technique Creation.”
“The Path of Technique Creation!” Zhou Yuanhao exclaimed.
“That’s why he’s our Master-Uncle! Just from his guts alone, it is enough to prove that he’s on a level higher than us!” Zhao Qinghe laughed as he shook his head. “This is hilarious. Those who still want to try and challenge Little Master-Uncle are fools.”
The Path of Technique Creation was a path only those blessed with genius talent could walk.
Unlike making a trade, there was no going back in cultivation.
Once the foundation was built, it would be hard to change.
That was why every cultivator was extremely careful when choosing their path.
The reason why Chen Jingzhai was able to hold a higher position than other people was that he was able to walk a path that others could not.
Compared to him, Lin Feiyang was nothing more than a troll.
As the disciples continued their conversation, Chen Jingzhai slowly opened his eyes.
“Master-Uncle!” Sun Changrong exclaimed.
“Thank God it’s done!” Chen Jingzhai said as he turned around. “Oh? And this is?”
“Greetings, Master-Uncle. My name is Jiang Lin. I’m from Wine Celestial Peak.” Jiang Lin quickly bowed.
“Ahhh! I remember you. You ranked ninth at the battle forum.” Chen Jingzhai smiled.
“I was just lucky.” Jiang Lin laughed.
“Not at all. The Wine Celestial lineage is known to walk the Path of Talisman through wine. It’s very unique,” Chen Jingzhai replied. “Even if there isn’t much competition at your peak, you should still be proud of that.”
“Thank you for your teaching, Master-Uncle.” Jiang Lin jumped a little and quickly bowed.
“It’s not a teaching. Although I’m your Master-Uncle, I’m still younger than you.” Chen Jingzhai waved his arm. “Alright. Let’s focus. It’s time to break the Restriction. We’ve wasted too much time this time.”
“What should we do?” Li Yifei asked.
“The same as last time. We’ll use the Seven Star Formation to break the core together,” Chen Jingzhai said as he drew a circle around the size of his palm on the fifth Restriction.
“Are we going to break it by force?” Sun Changrong asked in surprise.
“Yes.” Chen Jingzhai nodded. “According to my calculations, we’ll be able to break it with the help of the Seven Star Formation’s amplification effect. Just to be safe, Yifei will take the Phecda Position, and Xiao Yan will take the Mizar Position.”
“Noted.” Sun Changrong nodded. “I’ll let Senior Brother Jiang take my spot in the Alkaid Position this time.”
No one was against the decision as Chen Jingzhai was the leader. Not only that, but breaking formations was one of Daoxuan Peak’s specialties.
Under Sun Changrong’s instruction, Li Yifei, Zhou Yuanhao, Jiang Youning, Xiao Yang, Zhao Qinghe, and Jiang Lin formed the Seven Star Formation.
Once the formation was activated, their breathing unified.
Under the amplification effect of the formation, Chu Jingsong threw a punch directly onto the circle that Chen Jingzhai had drawn.
The punch was as heavy as a mountain, and it caused spirit light to gather around the Restriction.
An even stronger force bounced back from the Restriction and sent Chu Jingsong flying.
The Seven Star Formation was broken, but everyone had a grin on their faces.
The fifth Restriction had finally been broken.
Even Chen Jingzhai was smiling after seeing that.
Although trying to break the fifth Restriction in 20 days was a stretch, it was fortunate that the Restrictions had used the same system, and he was somewhat experienced in dealing with that type of Restriction now.
And, with the help of the divine stone to recover his divine mind, it wasn’t hard to break the seal. The only setback was exhaustion.
Not a single one of the disciples went into the ruin first. Instead, they let Chen Jingzhai have the honor of doing so.
Once he stepped foot inside the celestial abode, unlike before, two rays were shot at him.
One entered his upper core while the other seeped into his body.
Without moving a muscle, Chen Jingzhai absorbed the rays.
The other disciples didn’t pay any attention to that and started to search for treasures inside the ruin.
Other than the spells, they also found a few pieces of furniture and lamps.
Because of the Restriction, these items were well-preserved and were still functional.
The best item they had found inside was a magic treasure, the Azure Sparrow Everlasting Lamp.
Li Yifei was the one who found it, and now it belonged to him.
“Master-Uncle?”
“The Heaven World Forbidden Technique,” Chen Jingzhai said. “It looks like we’ve gathered all the Little Heaven Cloud Forbidden Technique.”
“Really?” Sun Changrong exclaimed.
The only clan that still had the Little Heaven Cloud Forbidden Technique was the Soaring Clouds Clan.
Although there were a lot of Hongdu Immortal Abodes, the technique was not once leaked.
Now that Daoxuan Peak had gotten their hands on it, it would benefit them a lot in the future.
