Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 104: Starry Sky Formation

"Heaven Level!"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Zhong Cang was astonished, but the other Perfected Beings were also moved.

At this moment, they truly understood the source of Qin Lao's confidence - with a Heaven Level technique, he really didn't know how to lose.

At the same time, what these Perfected Beings were thinking about was no longer how to compete with Qin Lao for Zhong Cang, but rather how to let their own descendants also learn this technique.

Some Perfected Beings even had the idea of switching to this technique.

There was no way around it. Heaven Level techniques, let alone disciples, even the peak masters of the Lower and Middle Peaks were not qualified to cultivate techniques of this level.

Seeing the others' interest, Qin Lao chuckled.

"You want to learn?"

"Mhmm..."

As soon as these words were spoken, many Perfected Beings nodded in agreement.

What surprised them was that when faced with their requests, Qin Lao didn't show any intention of stopping them. Instead, he generously nodded and said, "If you want to learn, anyone who has mastered the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram by the age of eighteen...twenty can come to the Starry Sky Archipelago to find me."

After speaking, Qin Lao waved Zhong Cang away.

However, his generous behavior made the Perfected Beings hesitate instead.

A Heaven Level technique was being spread so freely without any conditions attached, which was completely contrary to common sense.

They really wanted to stop Qin Lao and ask for clarification.

But since they had already begged Qin Lao for the technique, it wouldn't be good to ask him suspiciously after making the request. It could easily make Qin Lao angry.

Therefore, even though Qin Lao had walked far away, no one dared to ask.

But without clarifying everything, they didn't dare to let their own descendants learn it either.

As a result, the situation remained at a standstill.

Fortunately, there were intelligent people among the Perfected Beings.

Unable to ask Qin Lao, soon, their gaze turned to Tao, a Perfected Being.

When a sect produces a Heaven Level technique, such a big event would definitely alarm the sect master.

And Tao, as the sect master's personal disciple, had a high probability of knowing the details of this technique.

Therefore, asking this Perfected Being might also yield answers.

"Tao, Fellow Daoist Tao, Brother Tao, I wonder if you have any knowledge about this technique?"

Seeing the eager gazes of the Perfected Beings, Tao, the Perfected Being, first felt a chill.

But soon, he thought of something and smiled.

Instead of immediately answering, he shook the wine gourd at his waist and said with some regret, "Ah, the wine is gone. This Immortal's Drunkenness is really not easy to come by."

These words made the faces of the Perfected Beings twitch, but since they were asking for a favor, they could only force a smile and say, "We'll treat you to a pot of Immortal's Drunkenness."

"Really? That's so embarrassing... By the way, is it a thousand years or three thousand years of Immortal's Drunkenness?"

This demanding request immediately made people unable to bear it.

"It's only eight hundred years, is that okay?"

"Yes, of course!"

Having obtained the desired wine, and for free at that, Tao, the Perfected Being, was extremely pleased.

And as he carried out the transaction, he quickly explained the Heaven Level technique created by Qin Lao.

"Qin Lao is only at the False Dan stage. Even with the help of the Ancestor and the Spirit Communication Xuan Yu, he still wouldn't be able to create a Heaven Level technique."

These words immediately furrowed the brows of the Perfected Beings.

"Are you saying that Qin Lao is deceiving Zhong Cang?"

Note: The translation provided is a faithful representation of the original Chinese text. Some grammatical errors and awkward phrasing may be present as a result of the direct translation.

"No, that's not right. Qin Lao has always been straightforward and detests deception. I don't believe that a disciple could change his character to such an extent..."

Upon hearing everyone's reasoning, Tao Perfected Being calmly said, "I never said that the cultivation method was fake."

As the words fell, seeing the slightly angry gazes of the other Perfected Beings, feeling outnumbered, he dared not tease them any longer and quickly explained the matter of the cultivation method clearly.

"It is true that Qin Lao alone is not capable of creating a Heaven Level cultivation method. However, this cultivation method was not created out of thin air. It was modified from the Heaven Level formations, the Five Gods Radiant Heaven Formation and the Eight Wilderness Heavenly Map."

"Because the Five Gods Radiant Heaven Formation and the Eight Wilderness Heavenly Map both possess the power of Heaven Level, even if the formation is limited to the human body, it still possesses the power of a Heaven Level cultivation method."

"Not to mention, while Qin Lao may not be skilled in cultivation methods, formations are his proudest area. With his wisdom combined with the assistance of the Universal Truth Spirit Jade, the power of this cultivation method is beyond doubt."

"But, as you all know, formations are difficult to cultivate, and the Five Gods Radiant Heaven Formation and the Eight Wilderness Heavenly Map are the most difficult formations to practice, despite their immense power."

"Now, with the two formations combined and restricted within the human body, the complexity within this small space..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tao Perfected Being couldn't help but shiver and said with some fear, "In other words, the three most top-tier Heaven Level cultivation methods in our sect, when combined, may not be as complex and difficult to practice as what Qin Lao has created."

"..."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other and unanimously dismissed the idea of going to Qin Lao for cultivation.

With the difficulty of Heaven Level cultivation methods tripled, it was simply impossible for humans to cultivate them.

On the other hand, after sharing what he knew, Tao Perfected Being shook his head and left.

Of course, before leaving, he couldn't help but wave the wine gourd in his hand, reminding the other Perfected Beings about the incident of the drunken immortal.

This scene left many Perfected Beings shaking their heads in speechlessness.

"This disciple of the sect master is too carefree."

"Who says he isn't? Whenever the sect master is away, he does some inappropriate things. I heard that he even had a relationship with a demon woman from the Ten Thousand Spirit Demon Sect for a while."

"Be careful what you say. After all, he is one of the leaders of our sect... Fortunately, the sect master can control his unruly nature."

...

Zhong Cang didn't know what happened afterwards.

Led by Qin Lao, Zhong Cang and Qin Lao traveled together and soon arrived at Qin Lao's residence, the Starry Sky Archipelago.

Of course, as a fake Dan, even though Qin Lao was a master of formations and held a respected position, the area he controlled was only the size of Zhong Cang Peak.

Therefore, the so-called Starry Sky Archipelago was not actually a continuous chain of islands.

According to Zhong Cang's estimation, Qin Lao's islands were similar in size to the Hellfire Island of the Yan Family.

"So, the Yan Family is a Zhong Cang-level power?"

While pondering this, Zhong Cang continued to observe. Then, he discovered that unlike Hellfire Island, which was connected as a whole, the Starry Sky Archipelago was fragmented into more than a hundred pieces, varying in size.

The larger islands were about the size of a football field, while the smaller ones were only the size of a house.

These islands, large and small, were scattered throughout the lakes, giving the first impression of barrenness.

At first glance, the Starry Sky Archipelago seemed far less prosperous and outstanding than Hellfire Island as a whole.

However, Zhong Cang quickly dismissed this idea.

As Zhong Cang carefully observed, he gradually sensed a special charm emanating from these islands.

This charm made Zhong Cang feel that these islands were "alive."

"...They are moving. These islands are truly alive!"

In astonishment, Zhong Cang instinctively activated his Sword Heart and used the Rhythm of All Things to sense his surroundings.

Then, Zhong Cang discovered something else.

The scattered islands were actually connected to the stars in the sky above.

As the stars moved, these islands also moved.

Numerous islands formed a dynamic star chart.

By relying on the connection between the star chart and the starry sky, the Starry Sky Archipelago was actually harnessing the power of the countless stars.

At this point, Zhong Cang finally understood that the islands where Qin Lao resided were not so much the Starry Sky Archipelago as they were the Starry Sky Great Formation.
