The energy-gathering and energy-locking formations were the two most commonly-known formations among cultivators.
The former collected the spiritual energy within a particular area, while the latter retained it to prevent leakage, but despite their differences, they worked synergistically to create a favorable environment for cultivation.
The goal of the Leeson family was to conceal all the energy exuded from the small world’s chaos portal.
Although they were only dozens of miles away from the battleground at River Onxy, the spiritual energy discharged from the chaos portal was so thick that it formed an energy tide that caught Quintus and Jonathan’s attention
The mountain they were at was but an unremarkable one out of the numerous peaks in the Delisgar Ridge. Still, it appeared unusual because of the surge of mist rising from the mountain as a result of condensing spiritual energy.
The mist’s density was so high that the beginner-phase Grandmasters’ faces turned red as if they were drunk.
Their vitality spiked because they absorbed the potent energy as they breathed.
When Ashton noticed the situation, he promptly repositioned those Grandmasters to the periphery of the mountain.
Since spiritual energy shared the same characteristic as saline water, particles in both agents moved from high density to low density.
As for the Grandmasters in the beginner phase, although cultivating in a space with dense spiritual energy would elevate their ability rapidly, they still found it hard to control their vitality in an environment where the spiritual energy transcended their ability to cope, let alone those still in the Superior Realm.
The energy that leaked from the chaos portal was enough to turn the mountain into a superior cultivation hub, which went to show the significance of the secret hidden in the small world behind the chaos portal.
“Be mindful of the spirit stones’ positions. We need to seal all eight entryways on this mountain. Each entryway should be assigned nine groups of triple energy-locking formation. Hugh, bring your men to set up a trap formation plate outside the portal and an illusion array as the third layer. Garner all your resources and ask the family to send more if you don’t have enough. We’re going all in!”
Although Ashton’s strategy to mobilize all kinds of formations was formidable, it was merely the tip of the iceberg.
While one did not dare to trespass the small world at the moment, according to historical records, the appearance of the world’s chaos portal meant a catastrophe was inevitable.
After all, as part of the ancient heritage, the small world was home to many demon beasts trapped there for experimental purposes during those times.
But in the contemporary context, those then-insignificant creatures were considered powerful beasts.
In the past, even beasts the size of a vehicle tire that emerged from a portal could wreak havoc in the world, let alone those from a portal with a height of more than thirty feet.
The spiritual energy oozing from the portal was enough to disconcert just anyone. Even Quintus, a Divine Realm cultivator, was alarmed at the sight, so it went without saying that a God Realm cultivator like Ashton was unnerved.
His hunch told him that the creatures in the small world might change the entire Chanaean history, but faced with such a crisis, he was aware that subduing the threats behind the portal was just part of the Leeson family’s hurdles since they also had to contend with other influential families over the portal.
