Su Yan was dizzy and blank in the lady’s snow-white skin.

The lady in silver robe had moved forward when Su Yan came to his sense.

Su Yan got up quickly, patted away the ashes on his body, followed the lady in silver robe with a righteous face, and walked towards the ninth floor! 

“Crunch!”

The lady opened the door on the ninth floor. Su Yan was immediately shocked for this place was rich in natural essence!

“What is this?”

Seeing countless intricate formation lines in the air, a glimmer of amazement flashed in Su Yan’s eyes. These scrawly handwriting formation patterns glittered beams of light as dazzling as some mysterious words floating in the void.

Su Yan walked forward and looked at the tactical formation. It was an esoteric one that flooded with complicated formation traces. It seemed really fantastic and brilliant.

Su Yan noticed that the natural essence came from all directions was converging into this tactical formation.

“This is the Spirit-gathering Formation.”

The glamorous lady said gently, “It is the most elementary Spirit-gathering Formation. However, it has a unique effect in gathering the natural essence.”

Su Yan gasped in astonishment. What an amazing tactical formation!

Since the natural essence was connected with people’s cultivation, one could become a master if he learned how to gather the natural essence.

“Carve the Spirit-gathering Formation within ten days!”

The lady said gently, “If you fail, next time I"ll change another formation. You only have three chances; if all fail, you’ll never be allowed to enter the Training PaG.o.da, or you’ll will be killed!”

Su Yan was confounded for a moment. It never occurred to him that the words uttered by such a glamorous, n.o.ble and elegant lady could carry such an august power. How come Training PaG.o.da had such a rule?

To make sure nothing would go wrong, Su Yan inquired, “Are there any reference books?”

She shook her head and said, "By virtue of the first volume of the Taoist Formation you have already got and the forming structure of Spirit-gathering Formation, as long as your savvy is good enough, you can make it!"

"All right!"

Su Yan took a deep breath and sat cross-legged near the Spirit-gathering Formation with eyes closed. The tremendous momentum of the spirit burst in his mind which made a golden divine trace flickered over his forehead just like flas.h.i.+ng lightning.

Su Yan"s spirit had been totally different than before. Therefore, when this spirit force spread out, he immediately got the panoramic view of how the  Soul-gathering Formation worked.

"Not bad!"

Su Yan smiled. He could deduce the true meaning of the formation more quickly due to his powerful spirit. He thought that Spirit-gathering Formation was not so difficult to master that it could be carved in ten days!

"Su Yan pa.s.sed the eighth floor!"

"Unbelievable! The time he spent is less than an hour! How did Su Yan make it!"

The whole Huaxia College was completely shocked, including Liu Chengtian. That was too quickly! How strong was Su Yan"s deduction ability that he pa.s.sed the eighth floor so easily!

Elder Liang was quite excited that Su Yan had already got the most powerful cultivation manual!

After all, the contract did not mention that Su Yan needed to pa.s.s the ninth floor to get the reward. Entering the ninth floor already met the requirement.

With the most powerful martial art, he would cultivate and advance smoothly in Huaxia College in the future. He would have great hope to be one of the mightiest.

Teng Yingjie, who just arrived at the Training PaG.o.da, was stupefied after hearing the news from the steward that Su Yan really rushed through the eighth floor!

"The eighth floor! He has pa.s.sed the eighth floor!"

Teng Yingjie was panic-stricken. Even Elder Lei had said that it was pretty tough to pa.s.s the Training PaG.o.da, because it was a test of savvy.

Why did Huaxia College take it so seriously? Because the second mutation of the earth was directly related to savvy!

How far a person could go in the future depended on his savvy!

The big noise came out from the Training PaG.o.da shocked the entire college.

Someone speculated that the honor of Jing Yanghui’s core disciple No.1 would probably be taken away by Su Yan again. 

The news drove Jing Yanghui mad!

If Su Yan became the core disciple No.1, then Jing Yanghui’s test of promoting to golden students would be infinitely delayed.

“You mean Su Yan has already pa.s.sed the eighth floor?”

“Interesting.”

Jiang Wuhen’s golden robe made him even more majestic. Jing Yanghui was particularly afraid of Jiang Wuhen, but he still told Jiang Wuhen about his difficulties.

“It"s not a big deal.”

Jiang Wuhen said in a calm voice, “Su Yan"s gift is good, we should not lose such a talent.”

“It is Tang Yi who supported Su Yan.” Jing Yanghui said hastily, “And Tao Tianhua has enmity with Su Yan. How can Su Yan join us?”

“So what?”

Jiang Wuhen said indifferently, “Tang Yi is nothing more than that, and it"s easy for me to kill him. This is a piece of cake. I’ll let Su Yan join our Prime Faction. Now go and invite him yourself!”

Jing Yanghui looked gloomy. What a shame to let him invite Su Yan personally!

“Don’t pull such a long face. Think for the long term. You can be promoted to golden student smoothly only if Su Yan becomes one of us.”

Jiang Wuhen was confident and felt he was in control of the situation. He added unemotionally, “I’ll let him stop venturing into the Training PaG.o.da and wait for you to become golden student first. After Su Yan pa.s.ses it, next one is Teng Yingjie. It seems that our Prime Faction will win three champions.h.i.+ps of core student in succession.”

Jiang Wuhen was fantasizing about his glorious future and controlling Su Yan without Su Yan’s answer.

“What if Su Yan pa.s.ses the tenth floor?” Jing Yanghui asked again when he was leaving.

An indifferent emotion shone in Jiang Wuhen’s eyes, he said, “Do you think that anyone can get into the tenth floor of the Training PaG.o.da? Look at you, don’t always believe in the non-existent miracle!”

“That’s right.”

Jing Yanghui replied with a wry smile. He dared not to refuse what Jiang Wuhen had said. However, it was impossible for him to yield to Su Yan because he couldn’t even forget the disgrace of yielding to Tang Yi last time. And this time it was Su Yan who might cause a totally different result if he yielded to.

Time went day by day.

Every day was hard for some people because they were too eager to know Su Yan"s venturing achievements.

A howl which sounded like killing pigs spread on Dragon-hidden Mountain for the third night, “Su Yan, d.a.m.n you! "

The Fatty was so full of intense s.e.xual pa.s.sion that his nose sprayed blood fiercely and instantly. For he had used tiger p.e.n.i.ses to make a big pot of stew!

He was cheated badly by Su Yan and was left no peace the whole night, almost demolished the entire house.

“Who is thinking about me?”

At the ninth floor of the Training PaG.o.da, Su Yan got a chill while his eyes looking at the rapidly fading formation on the ground.

He had been comprehending the Spirit-gathering Formation for three days and had tried it for several times but all failed.

Yet Su Yan wasn’t so worried about it. Though the time had only pa.s.sed three days, he had made rapid progress in mastering the Spirit-gathering Formation.

He closed his eyes and reviewed the first volume of the Taoist formation. During the three months in the wilderness region Su Yan was able to run at will the simple formation lines in the first volume of the Taoist formation 

However, the Spirit-gathering Formation was composed of more complex formation lines and patterns, and these complicated patterns were made up by the simplest lines.

In the dark s.p.a.ce of Su Yan"s mind sat his faint shadow inside, with patches of formation lines flas.h.i.+ng all over his body, densely combined and interwoven in nothingness.

He was using the powerful spirit to deduce the forming structure of the Spirit-gathering Formation! 

That night, Su Yan"s spirit suffered a great consumption, so he closed his eyes to recuperate.

At night, he began to perform again, and the various formation lines either coa.r.s.e or shallow were quickly combined together.

Suddenly, Su Yan recalled the inheritance in the black ore that he had opened to observe more than once during his a.s.siduous cultivation in the wilderness area.

Although the inheritance in the black ore was too grand for him to fully digest, it gave Su Yan great inspiration in learning formations.

"Spirit-gathering Formation, it gathers the energy of heaven and nature, involving the power of heaven and nature. It"s no wonder that I always fail."

Su Yan smiled and quickly found the reasons why he had failed so many times.

"Let"s get started! It has already been five days. I only have five days left!"

Su Yan took a deep breath. With a point in the air, his whole finger seemed to turn into a brush and his fingertip flickered the light beams of formation lines. The moment he pointed to the ground, he began to carve on it one stroke at a time.

It was very difficult to carvethe formation traces of the Spirit-gathering Formation. Every time he inscribed it, it would consume a great deal of his mental strength and physical energy.

"If only I had a pen, it would be very easy. I wonder if there are any specialized pens to draw the formation lines."

Su Yan was whispering in mind while the movement of his hands was still continuing.

He carved very quickly, and many patches of formation lines were carved into the ground at a great speed.

It was densely arranged just like a formation map!

Su Yan"s forehead was sweating. The consumption was so great and it mainly consumed the spirit. Every stroke required him to be extremely concentrated.

Once he failed, all his previous efforts would be wasted.

After an hour, Su Yan had already reached the ending stage!

He looked pale and was so tired that he wanted to have a rest as soon as possible, for he could not hold out any longer.

“It will be over soon, hold on!”

Sweat trickled down along his nose to the ground drop by drop causing a sound that echoed in the open s.p.a.ce.

When the last stroke of the Spirit-gathering Formation was carved, the formation map which was featureless before suddenly became lifelike and extremely bright!

“Hum!”

All the formation lines interwoven stirred the power of heaven and earth, which seemed like countless threads interwoven together, exuding an amazing force of absorption!

“Boom!”

The ceaseless natural essence converged rapidly at lightning speed into the Spirit-gathering Formation Su Yan completed.

“What a formidable Spirit-gathering Formation!”

Su Yan had a big smile on his face. It was enough for him to live well in Huaxia Alliance by the ability to carve such a strong formation.

He stared at and observed the Spirit-gathering Formation he composed carefully. About an hour later, the natural essence inside it was nearly full. He walked inside the formation and found there was nearly twice of the natural essence as that outside it 

“The essence almost doubled. If I carve the Spirit-gathering Formation in the Treasure Cave, the effect will be even stronger!”

“However, Spirit-gathering Formation of the lowest level should not be able to withstand the impact of the strong energy of the Treasure Cave!”

Su Yan took a look at the Spirit-gathering Formation on the ninth floor and found it was more powerful than that in the eighth floor!

“This is the first time I inscribe it. With adequate experience, definitely it will be stronger next time!”

Su Yan had to admit that the Taoist formation was really extensive and profound. The woman in a silver robe said it was just the simplest Spirit-gathering Formation. How strong the most profound formation would be?

The force of the stronger Spirit-gathering Formations must be more horrendous.
