Soon, everyone arrived at Holy Sword Peak. The courtyards were right before their eyes. However, knowing the origins of Holy Sword Peak, everyone hesitated, fearing they might accidentally damage something. This was the place where the successive Holy Lords had cultivated before ascending to the throne. If anything was damaged, they couldn't afford the compensation.
"Haha, it's just a few courtyards. Not to mention that it was only lived in by successive Holy Lords, even if it was lived in by gods, it is still a courtyard after all. The Holy Lord asked you to practice here, so you should practice well. It doesn't matter even if this courtyard is demolished." Jian Wuchen laughed.
After hearing his words, everyone felt relieved and secretly laughed at themselves for being too pedantic.
But looking at the courtyards again, no one took the initiative to speak. If it weren't for Mu Hanyan, they might still be crawling through the dog hole, so how could they have the nerve to rush to choose before her.
"Young Master Mu, you choose first." Zhuang Ping'an and Sang Qinghe said in unison.
"Then I'll choose the courtyard on the west side." Mu Hanyan pointed to the courtyard where the power of heaven and earth was the most abundant and pure, and said.
Zhuang Ping'an and Sang Qinghe both sighed secretly. They had previously had a dispute over this yard and almost came to a fight, but in the end, neither of them had the chance to own this yard.
Although they knew that they were far inferior to Mu Hanyan in terms of strength and means, it was natural for her to choose this courtyard, but they still felt a little disappointed.
The others felt the same sense of loss. Most of them had only recently awakened their bloodlines, making this a crucial time for cultivation. With sufficient resources, the right techniques, and a bit of luck, rapid progress was no dream. Even a slight increase in the power of heaven and earth could make a huge difference in future cultivation.
Of course, like Zhuang Ping'an and Sang Qinghe, they also knew that it was natural for Mu Hanyan to choose the courtyard with the most abundant power of heaven and earth. They had no right to compete with her for it and could only feel disappointed in their hearts.
Hua Yue and others looked at Mu Hanyan in confusion. If she wanted to win people's hearts, shouldn't she pretend to be generous at this time? Why was she competing with Zhuang Ping'an and others instead?
But then, they noticed the faint smile on Mu Hanyan's lips, and immediately understood that there must be a deeper meaning behind Mu Hanyan's actions.
"Then I'll choose one."
"I choose this one." Zhuang Ping'an and Sang Qinghe were not interested in arguing anymore, so they just picked a yard at random.
"Then let's pick the last one," Yue Fanchen said carelessly. This was the only room left in the yard, so whether he chose it or not was a different matter. Of course, he wouldn't take such a small matter to heart. For him, Longya, and the others, protecting Mu Hanyan was their biggest mission on this trip.
"Young Master Mu, shall we go back and practice first?" Zhuang Ping'an bowed and led a group of Xi Qin disciples towards the courtyard.
"Wait, I'll go with you to take a look too." Mu Hanyan suddenly said and followed.
Zhuang Ping'an and others looked at Mu Hanyan in confusion, wondering why she followed them. However, there was nothing secretive about it, so no one refused.
Sang Qinghe and others were also curious, so they did not rush back to their own courtyards to practice, but followed.
Following Zhuang Ping'an into the courtyard, everyone felt the power of heaven and earth slowly swirling around the courtyard, enveloping it. It was like soaking in a hot spring, bringing a sense of relaxation. Without even needing to cultivate, the power of heaven and earth poured into their qi sea, then, drawn by that power, swirled with it, transforming into vigorous energy that circulated throughout their bodies.
In the past, they had only experienced similar feelings in top-level cultivation holy places that were open once every thousand years. However, it was obvious that even the top-level cultivation holy places that were open once every thousand years were not as good as here.
Under the influence of the power of heaven and earth, many people who were stuck at a bottleneck even vaguely felt the opportunity for a breakthrough.
It's a pity that it wasn't the courtyard that Mu Hanyan chose, otherwise, maybe they could have broken through directly. They couldn't help but think of it with envy, and at the same time, they secretly sighed.
It's not their fault for being greedy. Anyone with a bit of ambition wouldn't want to be even stronger, and cultivate even faster. Fortunately, they were only envious and disappointed, and didn't complain about Mu Hanyan at all. After all, her strength and means were there for all to see. The strong are respected; this is the eternal truth and law of the Holy Court Continent.
"Uncle Wuchen, can I really move around freely here?" Mu Hanyan suddenly asked.
I originally wanted to follow Jian Wuchen's wishes and call him Uncle Jian, but it always felt weird, so I decided to call him Uncle Wuchen.
"I've already told you that it doesn't matter even if you tear down this yard." Jian Wuchen said with a smile, seeming to be somewhat curious about Mu Hanyan's question.
Mu Hanyan nodded and walked around the yard, carefully examining it. The others also looked at her curiously, wondering what she was up to.
Not long after, Mu Hanyan took out a pile of meteorite stones and placed them aside.
Formation! Coming from wealthy families, Zhuang Pingan and the others were also knowledgeable and immediately understood that Mu Hanyan was setting up a formation. If they hadn't noticed, it should still be a spirit gathering formation that could gather the power of heaven and earth.
Although Mu Hanyan had previously broken through Han Yutang's Thousand Illusions Demon Subduing Formation and used the same method against him, using the formation to severely defeat Han Yutang, fully demonstrating her attainments in the art of formations, everyone was still surprised when they saw her actions at this moment.
You must know that the courtyard on Holy Sword Peak was the place where successive Holy Lords practiced before ascending to the throne. The formations laid therein are at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years old. Having weathered so many storms and still held their power, one can only imagine how exquisite and mysterious these formations are. They are definitely not comparable to the formations that Han Yutang hastily set up alone.
The art of formation is based on the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, and it cannot tolerate any mistakes. If Mu Hanyan sets up another formation in it, it is very likely to destroy the original formation principles. It may turn this good spirit gathering formation into a dangerous killing formation, or even explode directly, turning everyone into powder.
"Young Master Mu, please... please don't do anything rash. This is not Han Yutang's Thousand Illusions Demon Subduing Formation. If you are not careful, you could be in danger of... being killed." Thinking of this, Sang Qinghe's heart was in his throat, and he stuttered when he reminded Mu Hanyan.
"Yes, Young Master Mu, in fact, the power of heaven and earth in this yard is already abundant enough. It is enough for us to have an impact. There is no need to take risks." Zhuang Ping'an also said.
It was rare that this time his opinion was surprisingly consistent with Sang Qinghe's.
