Si’er approached Wu Tian, looking a little unhappy. She felt as if some of the affection she enjoyed had been diverted to this man.
"Whatever, I won’t stoop to a child’s level," she muttered, turning her head away.
Wu Tian and the others were speechless. "..."
Si’er collected herself. Something came to mind, and her lively expression turned serious. "There’s something I have to tell you, Sect Leader Big Brother."
"Then speak," Wu Tian said casually.
Si’er nodded. This was the Sect Leader she knew. He was always calm, no matter what happened. It was as if the sky falling would be just a trivial matter to him.
A smile bloomed on Si’er’s face. "It’s like this," she began. "Many years ago, five formidable figures known as the Five Mages emerged among the Array Masters. One of them, Lei Cang, suggested that all Array Masters unite, which led to the birth of the Array Masters’ Guild. Recently, the Guild decided to establish a new branch nearby. This is a major event. As the strongest nation among the hundred kingdoms in this region, the Three-Star Heavenly King Country is obligated to host a banquet for them. This is especially true for Master Yang, who is coming this time to serve as the new branch’s guild master. All important members of the royal family must attend. Heavenly Emperor Xiao Tian of the Heavenly King Country suddenly sent a message asking me to bring you along!"
Master Yang? Who’s that? Wu Tian chuckled to himself. I do know one person among the Array Masters, someone named Lei Ming! But I don’t know any others. Now, so many years later, I wonder how Lei Ming is doing. Is Lei Cang related to him in any way?
As Wu Tian was lost in thought, the City Lord and the others mistakenly assumed he was concerned about this Master Yang.
Si’er said with envy, "Master Yang’s full name is Yang Ziwei. He comes from the main headquarters of the Array Masters’ Guild. He appreciates Heavenly Emperor Xiao Tian’s talent and plans to accept him as a disciple."
The City Lord considered the situation more deeply. "Perhaps Heavenly Emperor Xiao Tian has no talent for Formations, but Master Yang will take him as a disciple regardless. First, Master Yang is a powerful outsider—a mighty dragon crossing the river, so to speak. But to quickly establish a foothold here, he needs the help of a local power—a native serpent. Second, the Heavenly King Country is the strongest of the hundred neighboring nations. Taking Heavenly Emperor Xiao Tian as a disciple is simply a matter of mutual exploitation."
After the City Lord’s explanation, even those who were confused before now understood the situation.
But Si’er still sighed, "Even so, I’m so envious."
Dao Feng, Hong Ji, and Lan Niang nodded in agreement. Becoming an Array Master was not something just anyone could achieve.
It was clear that Yang Ziwei wanted to establish a firm foothold, while Heavenly Emperor Xiao Tian hoped his fame would spread to territories beyond the hundred nations. It was a relationship of mutual benefit. Yet, the title of Array Master would indeed greatly enhance Heavenly Emperor Xiao Tian’s reputation.
But so what? Wu Tian couldn’t care less about any of this.
He simply said, "Taking on a disciple has nothing to do with me. Si’er, don’t worry, I’ll go."
"Okay." Si’er didn’t know Wu Tian’s true identity. When she saw how little he seemed to care about such a major event, she and the others were shocked.
After Si’er and the others left the study, Wu Tian waved his hand, and a great gust of wind slammed the door shut.
Wu Tian began to cultivate Formations.
I should find time one day to try merging the True Sun Fire with my Golden Crow Fire, Wu Tian mused. I wonder if that could create the most primordial flame from the sun’s very core.
To inscribe a Formation into one’s body required a special ink, and this mixture was exactly that.
A special pen was also required. However, Wu Tian didn’t have one. This wasn’t an ordinary writing brush, but a tool made specifically for Array Masters, and he figured such an item wouldn’t be found in a small place like this. So, Wu Tian used his finger as a pen. The finger of an Immortal Emperor was, naturally, a Supreme Treasure in its own right.
Instantly, Wu Tian began to trace the Formation path of the Heavenly Ultimate Formation onto the backs of his hands, inscribing incredibly profound sigils. Every Formation has its own unique Formation path, much like how different Martial Skills have different mental methods.
As the Formation path was gradually completed, a faint Thunder Qilin tattoo became visible on the backs of his hands. Thunder seemed to roar from within it, its white lightning looking incredibly striking. The very space around it seemed to twist and warp from the crackling lightning.
This was none other than the Heavenly Ultimate Formation, one of the legendary Ten Ultimate Formations from the Mythical World!
"It’s done," Wu Tian muttered with a hint of delight. The Spiritual Power on the backs of his hands was now amplified by the lightning.
This power, a combination of Immortal Power and ordinary Spiritual Power, might as well be called Immortal Spiritual Power. Wu Tian hadn’t expected to become such an anomaly once again. His Spiritual Power had already been out of place on Earth. Now, having reached the Immortal Emperor Realm, the fundamental nature of his power once again differed from that of this world.
This Immortal Spiritual Power swept through all the meridians in his left hand, transforming them into meridians of pure thunder.
This hand alone had become a veritable Thunder Domain
