Chapter 593 Repair
Feng Yin arrived in a hurry and did not hear what everyone said before.
But he saw from a distance that the two people he brought were standing on the edge of the ancient barrier of the forbidden area. He also roughly understood what the attitude of his fellow disciples in the sect would be, so he rushed over without caring about anything else and tried to smooth things over.
But someone said angrily:
"Brother Feng, please don't excuse the intruders. They didn't stumble into the forbidden area accidentally. Do you know what this woman just said? She actually said she could repair the ancient barrier! This is absolutely ridiculous!"
The one who spoke was the elderly Taoist priest.
The people in Xuanmen have their own set of rules for ranking according to seniority. Feng Yin is young but he is the only closed disciple under the sect master. Therefore, apart from being ranked with the closed disciples of other elders according to the order of their admission, all non-closed disciples of the same generation have to call him "senior brother" in front of him.
Feng Yin was stunned for a moment after listening to the words of the older Taoist priest, and then he looked at Yun Qingqing with a more thoughtful look.
"Brother Feng, what are you waiting for? The sect leader, the elders, and the senior brothers are all inside the barrier. Everyone here is waiting for your decision. Please quickly order the arrest of these two!"
Feng Yin glanced around and found that the other closed disciples were not there. Just as worry appeared in his eyes, he heard the earth-shaking sound of the barrier again.
The already shocking cracks widened a little further. As the spider-web-like cracks grew larger, a huge figure vaguely emerged from the barrier, and Feng Yin felt even more uneasy.
In addition to preventing people from entering, this ancient barrier also serves as a camouflage. From outside the barrier, one can only see ordinary mountains and forests, but in fact, this is not the case at all.
He didn't dare to think about how big a mess it would cause if the barrier was broken, so he immediately looked at Yun Qingqing and asked:
"Can the Pavilion Master really repair this ancient barrier?"
When the roar just now sounded, Yun Qingqing knew that the barrier was about to reach its limit and could not delay any longer, so she had already been making preparations.
Hearing Feng Yin's question, she just nodded, her eyes always fixed on the center of the crack, and raised her hand to throw out dozens of talismans.
The talismans did not stop when they touched the barrier, but disappeared directly into the barrier, causing a faint light on the surface.
The people of Changliu Mountain were in an uproar again. The elder Taoist priest said anxiously:
"Senior Brother Feng..."
Feng Yin raised his hand to stop him from saying the following:
"Let her try. I'll take care of any problems."
The older Taoist priest was stunned for a moment and was about to say something when he suddenly heard a beast roar like a tsunami coming from within the barrier. Although it was not very real, the momentum of the sound was still frightening even through the ancient barrier.
Everyone stared nervously at the web-like cracks on the barrier, only to see the vaguely large figure inside, seemingly restrained by something, struggling desperately.
After the figure gradually moved away from the edge of the barrier, there was no more collision sound.
However, the network of cracks that had already appeared in the barrier were still slowly expanding, which made people anxious. They didn't know when this barrier that had existed since the founding of the sect would break.
Yun Qingqing suddenly threw Dawn, flew into the air on the sword, hovered over the densest part of the cracks, and covered it with his palm.
The dome of the ancient barrier looks like a translucent glowing barrier from a distance, but when you get closer you can see that it is actually made up of a layer of densely packed mysterious array patterns.
Yun Qingqing slowly closed her eyes and kept her hand touching the barrier. There was no movement for a few breaths, and the disciples of Changliu Mountain began to wonder again.
"What is she doing?"
"Didn't you say you were going to repair the barrier? Why aren't you moving?"
"Do you really believe she can repair the ancient barrier? Don't be ridiculous! That barrier was left behind by our founder! That was over two thousand years ago!"
"That's right! After the spiritual energy dried up, the world today is incomparable to the times of our ancestors. How could anyone possibly repair the ancient barrier alone?"
"That's true...but this little girl can fly a sword, and those talismans just now were able to penetrate the barrier...don't you think she might actually be able to do it?"
"Oh, just pretending! If she really had that ability, why wouldn't she be so quiet now..."
Amidst the discussion among the crowd, a golden light suddenly burst out from the palm of Yun Qingqing's hand in mid-air. From the golden light, golden lines emerged and spread out from the position of her palm to the surroundings, forming complex and mysterious patterns on their own, covering the cracked area of the barrier bit by bit.
The crowd was silent for a moment, then erupted in a low murmur of exclamation.
"Oh my god, what is this? Setting up a formation with bare hands? Am I seeing things right?"
"Hiss...I've only heard of this kind of thing in legends my whole life. I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes today."
"She can really repair our ancient formation..."
"...Isn't this a trick?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Didn't you feel it? The aura leaking from the barrier has indeed been sealed. She really is repairing our ancient barrier!"
"Who is this little girl? Did Senior Brother Feng just call her Pavilion Master? Which pavilion is it..."
"With such abilities, he must be from one of the top sects in the world, right?"
As everyone watched the cracks on the barrier being covered and there were no more collisions or unusual movements inside, they relaxed and became more curious about Yun Qingqing, and began to speculate about her origins.
Although the repair array pattern laid by Yun Qingqing covered the dome and looked like a patch, it was not really beautiful, but it was still breathtaking for the disciples of Changliu Mountain, and they didn't care whether it looked good or not.
Feng Yin's expression relaxed and he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the ability of the Pavilion Master of Tianming was truly beyond his expectations. He was right to bring her back to the sect with him.
After completely sealing the aura inside the barrier, Yun Qingqing withdrew his palm, flew his sword lightly back to the ground, and looked at Feng Yin.
Before she could speak, Feng Yin bowed to her and said with gratitude:
"Thank you, Master, for helping to repair the ancient barrier. I will report this matter to you upon the return of my Master and the elders."
Along the way, Feng Yin's understanding was constantly refreshed by Yun Qingqing, and his way of addressing her changed from "Pavilion Master" to the more polite "Pavilion Master".
The one with the highest status at the scene was Feng Yin. With him taking the lead, the disciples who were shocked by Yun Qingqing also bowed and followed Feng Yin in calling out "Master Pavilion Master":
"Thank you, Pavilion Master, for your help!"
The elder disciple also said:
"Forgive my poor eyesight, I hope the Pavilion Master will forgive me."
Unexpectedly, Yun Qingqing raised her eyebrows and looked at these people with an expression that was hard to describe:
"Don't thank me yet. Who said the barrier has been repaired? I haven't even started yet!"
Are you kidding? Could the barrier that Yun Qingqing repaired be as ugly as a plaster?
Feng Yin's expression was stunned:
"ah?"
Yun Qingqing turned around and looked at the barrier:
"I've temporarily reinforced the barrier, so it won't have any problems for three days. However, the core and eye of the barrier are both inside. Of course, I have to go inside to fully repair it."
She looked at Feng Yin again, as if she was talking about a trivial matter, and said:
"I'm going in for a minute. Do you want to wait outside or come with me?"
