Chapter 626: 201 Su Yu’s Strategy, Becoming a Nobleman_1
Su Yu has only been to the Star Picking Tower twice, and both times were brief visits, using the teleportation formation in the tower to travel between the Dàyùe Mansion and the Earth Immortal Mansion.
He did not know much about the power of the Star Picking Tower, but it was recorded in the Earth Immortal Mansion’s scriptures that the Star Picking Tower had a long history and was one of the renowned formations in the Daqian cultivation world. The entirety of the Daqian cultivation world had only a handful of level-five formation masters, one of whom was Xinghai, the current ancestor of the Star Picking Tower.
To note, Taoist Tianyu was the only level-four top formation master at the Earth Immortal Mansion, which is one of the top ten immortal sects.
Thus, the scarcity and strength of level-five formation masters became obvious.
Other than the Star Picking Tower, there was another formation power called the Moon Pointing Pavilion in the Daqian cultivation world, which was the mortal enemy of the Star Picking Tower for generations.
Legend has it that in the Ancient Era, a legendary formation master left behind his formation legacy, but it was later divided into two, falling into the hands of the founding ancestors of the Star Picking Tower and the Moon Pointing Pavilion respectively.
From that moment onwards, the grudges between the Star Picking Tower and the Moon Pointing Pavilion had never ceased.
The hereditary purpose of the two formation powers was to take back the formation legacy from each other and obtain the true unparalleled formation legacy of the formation ancestors.
When Su Yu was teleported from the Ten Monarchs Immortal City to the closest fairy city to the gate of the Star Picking Tower, the Star Picking City, the entire city was filled with a heavy, hesitant, and chaotic atmosphere.
This was not because the Star Picking City or the Star Picking Tower was being attacked, but because the Moon Pointing Pavilion had come knocking on their door.
“Ancestor Xinghai’s lifespan is near its end, and he was previously injured in the Holy Forest of Heavenly Demons. This Moon Pointing Pavilion is too much, daring to come at this time, forcing Daozi to accept the grand dao challenge!”
“Ah well, other than accepting the grand dao challenge, what other choices do the ancestor, tower master, and Daozi have? Either they start a war with the Moon Pointing Pavilion or they compete with the Daozi of the Moon Pointing Pavilion in formation, there’s no other choice.”
“It is said that in this dao challenge, the losing party will have to give up their formation inheritance…”
“If it was just the Moon Pointing Pavilion, there would not be much of a problem, but the issue is that the Moon Pointing Pavilion has allied with the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace. If a war were to break out, the Star Picking Tower would not only face the Moon Pointing Pavilion but also the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace.”
Walking out of the Star Picking City, Su Yu heard a lot about the Star Picking Tower. The look in his eyes suddenly deepened, and his pupils contracted.
The Moon Pointing Pavilion!
The Ten Thousand Immortals Palace!
While the Star Picking Tower and the Moon Pointing Pavilion were powerful forces in the field of formations, they were far from the strength of an immortal sect.
If the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace truly meddled in the old feud between the Star Picking Tower and the Moon Pointing Pavilion, it would undoubtedly be a catastrophic disaster for the Star Picking Tower.
Fortunately, the dao challenge between the Moon Pointing Pavilion and the Star Picking Tower hadn’t started yet, and the agreed time was not due.
The Star Picking City and the Star Picking Tower could still maintain order and calm.
Walking out of Star Picking City, Su Yu waved his hand and summoned Taixu from the Magic Artifact Palace, allowing it to reveal its true form, and then descended onto its back: “Let’s go to the Star Picking Tower.”
“Chirp!”
Taixu let out a slightly excited cry that echoed through the heavens and the earth.
Behind in the Star Picking City.
One by one, the faces of the Nascent Soul True Monarchs changed dramatically, looking towards the sky outside the city with a shocked expression. Their gaze passed through endless void, seeing a giant bird engulfed in purplish-blue flames soaring across the sky like an ancient phoenix, turning into a beautiful arc and disappearing in an instant.
The strong bloodline and ferocity that Taixu left behind shook all the Nascent Soul True Monarchs in Star Picking City.
“What kind of beast is that?”
“No, there seems to be someone, that’s a mount!”
“This aura… Something’s wrong, this beast’s cry, and its strong aura make me feel afraid? Just because of this beast?”
“Hiss, that giant bird’s bloodline is not simple, it seems to be related to the ancient phoenix. One cry and all the beasts and demons in the city tremble in fear, prostrate on the ground!”
“Who is that man?”
The Nascent Soul True Monarchs of Star Picking Tower were shocked and discussed among themselves, but no one recognized the person on the beast’s back.
“Snap!”
Su Yu slapped Taixu on the head, rebuking in a low voice: “Are you an idiot? You dare to shout like this outside. Do you think too few people recognize you, know about your phoenix bloodline, and want people to catch you?”
Taixu nodded, a voice similar to a teenager echoed in Su Yu’s mind: “I want to be the most awesome mount for master! A lot better than that turtle!”
You’re certainly stupid.
Su Yu slapped its head again, saying: “Focus on the journey.”
The gate of the Star Picking Tower was not far from the Star Picking City. It took less than half a day for a misty mountain range to emerge in front of them. At first glance, it seemed like a mountain range shrouded in mist, but on closer inspection, it was more like a boundary wall like Aufang shield.
Just the aura permeating the heaven and earth on this barrier was enough to make Su Yu look solemn, feeling a strange sense of reverence in his heart, without any intention of offense.
This aura was enough to make cultivators and beasts or demons below the Dividing Spirit Realm feel fearful and avoid it from afar.
Compared to the Immortal Gate barrier of the Earth Immortal Mansion, it might just lack a bit of foundation.
The old lair of the Star Picking Tower’s gate that has been built by five-level formation masters over the generations was undoubtedly one of the safest and most dangerous places in the Daqian cultivation world.
The only others that could compare to it should be the top ten Immortal Sects, as well as other five-level Formation Dao powers, such as the Moon Pointing Pavilion.
