He said this without consulting the First Elder and the Second Elder, but no one could find fault with it.
After all, it wouldn't be right for the Leng family to send two Celestial Masters and then leave them inside the sect!
Leng Boyun looked very worried. He looked at his father and said, "Father, I'll go this time. You stay."
Leng Qianjue waved his hand, his tone leaving no room for doubt: "Your strength is inferior to mine, so you stay and take good care of the younger generation."
The Fourth Elder said, "The last time the evil master's soul awakened, it took more than four years to suppress and eliminate it. This time it will probably take even longer. Everyone should be fully prepared."
His master perished during the last awakening of the evil spirits, and he hopes everyone will prepare well and return safely.
Qing Xuanzi was worried. Rong Jiaojiao's special nature made him hesitant to entrust her to others for an extended period, not even his own master.
He asked, "When do we depart?"
Yu Qingguang replied, "Everyone, go back and prepare now. Those heading to the Demon Sealing Array will depart in two hours, and those heading to the mortal world will depart tomorrow."
Yang Jingtian, the eldest disciple of the Fifth Elder, said, "Isn't this a bit too hasty? We should give them more time to prepare."
Yu Qingguang shook his head: "It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's the alliance's requirement."
The Fifth Elder glanced at his eldest disciple and said, "I have long required you to be prepared at all times. What else is there to say now?"
"Besides, the alliance will arrange supplies, so there's no need to worry too much."
Five years ago, when demonic spirits first appeared in the mortal world, all the sects on the immortal mountain were already prepared. Now, to say that they need time to prepare is just a joke.
Yu Qingguang selected a few people who weren't strong in combat but had good talent in skills such as talisman making, alchemy, and array formation to stay behind and teach the younger disciples.
Finally, he clasped his hands in a salute to Qin Daozhi, Ren Yuan, Leng Qianjue, Yuan Pingwei, and Wei Zhenglei, saying, "I entrust my disciples to your care on this journey to the Demon Sealing Formation."
Qin Daozhi waved his hand: "There's no need to say more. Just take good care of the sect and the younger generation."
Others also expressed their opinions, and although the atmosphere was serious, it also conveyed a sense of unity and solidarity.
No matter how many petty thoughts one has in ordinary times, they are insignificant in the face of matters of principle.
Yu Qingguang bowed slightly: "Thank you, elders. That's all for now. Everyone, please go back and prepare."
After the elders got up and left, everyone else got up and started to leave.
When Qing Xuanzi arrived outside the hall, he saw Leng Boyun and Yao Haiting waiting for him. He quickly stepped forward to greet them. Leng Boyun nodded and said, "Not bad, your cultivation has improved a lot. Come on, let's go sit at my place."
The three arrived at Leng Boyun's residence. Leng Boyun said, "Sit down. I called you here to talk to you about Jiaojiao's life after you went to the Demon Sealing Array, and also about the situation at the Demon Sealing Array."
Qing Xuanzi asked, "Shouldn't we tell our senior brothers as well?"
Yao Haiting said, "We already told your senior brothers when we came back at the beginning of the year, but you weren't there at the time."
"I've been in seclusion ever since, until just today, and I haven't been able to tell you anything about the Demon Sealing Array."
Qing Xuanzi knew that with Rong Jiaojiao's current intelligence and abilities, it was not suitable for her to live with others. He said, "Jiaojiao is already seven years old and can live independently. I will leave her enough for her cultivation. Master only needs to occasionally supervise her cultivation."
Leng Boyun nodded. Most of his apprentices started living independently after the age of six, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with that.
Leaving those things aside, let's talk about the Demon Sealing Array: "Normally, the Demon Sealing Array will also have demonic spirits that split off and occasionally escape from the small cracks in the array. However, these demonic spirits will be captured by the array as soon as they appear, and we can quickly eliminate them and repair the array."
"But the awakening of the demonic main soul is a different story. It will constantly attack the formation, causing cracks to appear everywhere, and a large number of demonic spirits will emerge."
"These demonic spirits are not only numerous, but also much stronger than the usual demonic spirits."
“Every time the main soul of the evil spirit awakens, a large number of cultivators are needed to help eliminate these demonic spirits. At the same time, elders at the Celestial Master level and above are needed to check and repair the demon-sealing array.”
Leng Boyun sighed: "The last time the demonic master soul awakened, our cultivation world suffered heavy losses, and many outstanding disciples and elders perished."
"This time, we must be fully prepared to minimize the losses."
Qing Xuanzi nodded, his heart equally heavy.
He knew that this mission to the Demon Sealing Array was extremely difficult, not only fraught with danger, but also requiring a long period of perseverance and fighting.
He asked, "Then what method is most effective in dealing with them?"
Leng Boyun's voice echoed in the room, as if carrying a heavy echo. He continued, "What demons fear most are extremely powerful and yang magic, such as fire magic, lightning magic, and all other means that can restrain demons."
"However, although these spells are powerful, they consume a great deal of spiritual energy and require a very high level of cultivation from the caster."
"The reason why our Xuanqing Sect developed into a talisman-drawing sect is to prepare a large number of talismans so that we can save our spiritual power during battle."
"However, the reason I asked you to come here is to tell you that your master's wife and I went to the Demon Sealing Formation last time and figured out a large-scale Heavenly Thunder Soul Annihilation Formation with multiple people attacking together. It has already been handed over to the sect."
"This combined formation is several times more powerful than our original formation. So, take the formation diagram back with you and study it carefully on the way. If you manage to obtain the Demon Sealing Formation, you can cooperate well with your fellow disciples."
Yao Haiting took out a formation diagram that glowed with a pale blue light and gently placed it on the table.
This array diagram may not look remarkable, but it is covered with intricate runes and lines, as if it contains endless power.
"This is the upgraded version of the 'Heavenly Thunder Soul Annihilation Formation' that your master's wife devised." Leng Boyun's voice was deep and serious. "The biggest feature of this formation is that it can gather the power of multiple people's Heavenly Thunder Soul Annihilation Formation into a powerful heavenly thunder attack."
"Furthermore, it can flexibly change its position as the person in charge of the formation moves, in order to pursue the enemy."
"This eliminates the rigidity of the original formation and allows the energy of the Heavenly Thunder Talisman to be fully utilized."
Qing Xuanzi took the array diagram and examined it carefully.
He discovered that although the runes and lines on this array were complex, they possessed a unique rhythm, as if they contained infinitely powerful laws.
Leng Boyun continued to explain, "Although this formation is powerful, it also has drawbacks. It requires the cooperation of many people, and they must trust each other. It also demands a very high level of control over the caster's spiritual sense."
"If the coordination fails, not only will it fail to exert its due power, but it may even backfire."
Qing Xuanzi nodded, understanding the importance of this formation.
