Dragon Breaks The Void

Van started to carefully inspect every crook and cranny of the strange formation emitting Celestial Qi. It was extremely complex and wasn"t anything like the formations he had read about in his past times when he was younger.

Van continued to stare at the strange patterns while recovering his Qi and physical health back to optimal condition. The undead stood outside the range of the celestial formation and continued to hiss, not daring to take one step forward.

Many hours pa.s.sed as he contemplated the formation. He had surprisingly received a lot of enlightenment from this formation. His special body allowed him to comprehend anything a lot faster than others. Coupled with his previous knowledge of formations, Van gained a new understanding of the application of formations.

"So it could be used this way!"

"Ah! This Qi strand feeds into this smaller inscription that gathers more Qi! It acts like the nervous system! You need some energy to get more energy!"

"I wonder what this does. I can sense a lot of s.p.a.ce Qi. Maybe this is the inscription that initiates the teleportation process?"

Van was starting to understand more of the mysteries of this world. The ancient formations were self-sustainable and could last for a lot longer than modern formations. Modern formations were rather self-sustainable too, but they weren"t exactly durable and would usually fall apart within a thousand years.

Van sighed. If only he had been more attentive when listening to his lessons on formations. Since he was the royal failure, his father had exposed him to many fields of study including formation making. At the time, he wasn"t too interested in it and was more focused on Martial Arts, despite his constant failure to break through to the next stage.

Well, it was too late for regrets. Holding those negative thoughts would just be putting an obstacle on his cultivation path.

He engraved every part of the simulated ancient formation into his mind. He would study it later when he left the promotion test and improved his knowledge of formations.

Maybe, I"ll be a formations master!

Van thought to himself. Being a formations master would give him incredible status in the Sect, allowing him to rise in power faster. Van jumped up and down in glee before quickly calming himself down. He first needed to focus on the situation at hand.

He turned towards the undead and dashed forward into the middle. He unsheathed his saber and threw out so many saber intents, that it formed a coc.o.o.n-like shape around him. A split second later, it dispersed into the horde, killing more than half. The undead, being undead, continued to ama.s.s and advance towards him.

Van calmly looked at the hundreds of remaining undead before him. He looked like one of the heroes out of the legends.

The examiner was sitting in a comfy chair, a rather panicked expression on her face. She had lost connection to Van"s pa.s.sageway. A strange force seemed to be blocking her from spectating Van.

She was currently trying to contact her higher-ups, but was replied with an "everything is alright". She trusted her higher-ups but was rather concerned for the safety of Van. Van was a rather talented cultivator and could go to new heights, befriending him wouldn"t be a bad idea.

Van walked back to the Celestial Formation, a time path of corpses in his wake. He found the initiation inscription and took a deep breath.

Was the risk worth it? Was the small chance of fortune worth risking his life for?

These questions and those similar was what was running through Van"s mind. He shrugged to himself.

Might as well try, there"s no reward without any risk.

He inserted a few spirit stones in a circle into the Formation, triggering a large fluctuation of Celestial Qi. Undead from all around the illusion world howled in terror.

Van stood in the middle of the Formation as blinding light rose up and enveloped him, transporting him to someplace far away.

After Van vanished, the illusory world disappeared, leaving a shocked announcer. The examiner had told him to keep an eye on Van personally. He was enthusiastic to do her will and was trying to curry favor with her.

What he didn"t expect was a real Celestial Teleportation Formation to be in the middle of the illusory world. Such formations were impossible for them to make, only those powerful from the Medium ranked Continents would be able to make such monstrosities.

They were only in the Middle Section of an Unranked Continent, making this the sight of a lifetime for even the most powerful cultivator on the continent, not to mention an Outer Sect elder of the Flowing River Sect.

Van found that his sight was currently extremely bleached. He shook his head and blinked a few times. His colorblindness finally left him.

He looked around to find himself in what many would expect of heaven. The place itself radiated a sense of holiness. Van could feel Celestial, Holy, Radiant, Light, and some Gold Qi.

There was a bustling city that lay in front of him. Winged peoples, normal humans, and Fae lived together in harmony. At least, that"s what lay on the outside.

The city wasn"t on the clouds but the fields of golden wheat were quite the sight to behold.

Unbeknownst to Van, this heaven was only on the outside, corrupt officials ruled the cities with the Sects being the real power behind the scenes.

Van headed towards the gate where four radiant winged guards inspected the visitors. The guards were at the King Stage, shocking Van to the core. Those experts would be regarded as mighty conquerors on his continent but were only mere guards here.

Van shuddered to think of who the most powerful expert was. When he got to the gate, flashing red numbers appeared in his vision, shocking him. The guards looked at him, a bit concerned, this youth at the 10th Stage of Dantian Formation was acting a bit abnormally.

10:00:00:00 was what had appeared in his vision. He guessed it to be about 10 days.

What"s this for?

Van thought to himself. In response, a few words replaced the number.

YOU HAVE 10 DAYS UNTIL YOU ARE RETURNED TO YOUR PREVIOUS POSITION. ENJOY YOUR STAY IN THE CELESTIAL HEAVENS!
