Soon, she frowned. The principles of this formation were profound and abstruse, and even with her attainments in formations, it would be difficult to comprehend them in a short time. However, she only needed to activate the formation to resist the chaotic and violent power of the laws of Qianlong Valley. Whether or not she could comprehend the principles of the formation was not important, so she did not have too many regrets.
Taking out the meteorite gold, Mu Hanyan made a hand gesture, injecting the energy contained in the meteorite gold stone into the formation and started to activate the formation.
"Boom!" What was thought to be an easy task turned out to be an unexpected event. With a muffled sound, a huge force erupted from the base of the formation. Mu Hanyan was caught off guard and was actually shocked to retreat several steps.
Fortunately, her strength was not greatly affected by the withering of the ancient tree of life, otherwise she would probably be injured by this huge force.
"Sister Mu! (Master Priest!)" Su Baoer and Gao Weihu were both shocked and stepped forward to support Mu Hanyan.
"I'm fine." Seeing the concerned looks in their eyes, Mu Hanyan smiled slightly and said.
Seeing that Mu Hanyan looked fine and had no signs of injury, the two men finally felt relieved.
Zhao Xinghu and others felt ashamed and were about to leave, but they were stunned when they saw this scene.
Although they could not comprehend the mysteries of the formation base, as long as they had the meteorite stone in hand and had some understanding of the formation, even Fei Changle and others could activate it. Unexpectedly, Mu Hanyan had an accident and was almost injured by the power of the formation.
"Hahahaha, Mu Hanyan, the ready-made formation base is right in front of you, but you can't activate it. You can't blame me." Zhao Xinghu was feeling embarrassed, and suddenly found an opportunity to attack Mu Hanyan to save face. He didn't think about the reason and said with a loud laugh.
"I thought you were so capable, but after all this fuss, you know nothing about the formation. I wouldn't have said so much. I would have just given you the formation base. You can't use it anyway." Fei Changle also followed suit with sarcasm, obviously trying to please Zhao Xinghu.
"You were so majestic just now, you even dared to snatch it from Lord Zhao. Now you are embarrassed. You don't have the ability to do so. Even if you snatch it, you can't use it." The priests from other halls also followed suit and sneered. As they spoke, they glanced at Zhao Xinghu with flattery on their faces.
"Zhao Xinghu, did you tamper with this formation?" Mu Hanyan asked with a murderous look on her face. Although it was just a question, she was already certain that the formation had been tampered with.
Zhao Xinghu was stunned again. He wanted to tamper with the formation to embarrass Mu Hanyan, but he needed the ability to do so. He subconsciously glanced at Fei Changle and the others. Could it be that one of them had tampered with the formation?
Although he didn't understand the principles behind the formation, he had some understanding of it and knew that even if Mu Hanyan really knew nothing about the principles of formations, this situation shouldn't have happened.
He also heard that when Mu Hanyan was in Tianyang City, she had assisted Wen Gaoren in repairing the temple's formation. There was even a legend that Wen Gaoren had worshipped Mu Hanyan as his master. In other words, it was actually Mu Hanyan who actually repaired the formation of the Tianyang Temple, and Wen Gaoren was just helping her.
Regardless of whether the latter legend is true or false, it is impossible that Mu Hanyan is completely ignorant of the art of formations, and the scene just now should not have happened.
But as he glanced at the faces of Fei Wenle and others, he really couldn't think of who had the ability to tamper with the base of this formation.
"Mu Hanyan, stop slandering me. Which eye of yours saw me do anything? Just admit that you don't have the ability, and stop trying to throw dirty water on others." Zhao Xinghu was too lazy to think about it and said with a sarcastic look on his face.
"That's right. Not only do they have no ability, but they even have the nerve to frame Lord Zhao. They are so shameless." Fei Changle and others also echoed.
In fact, they also felt it was strange. With a ready-made formation base and a formation that even they could easily activate, it should be impossible for Mu Hanyan to fail with her strength. Could it be that someone really had tampered with it?
However, no matter how strange it is, they certainly won't defend Mu Hanyan at this time. It's true that they would never think the stone is big enough to kick someone when they're down.
The crowd's mocking voices grew louder and louder, and people began to come out from the surrounding cowhide tents to watch the fun. Judging from the symbols on their robes, many of them were priests from the other four upper temples.
Seeing the mean faces of Zhao Xinghu, Fei Changle and others, they roughly guessed what was going on. However, they did not know Mu Hanyan. Although they felt some sympathy for this beautiful young priestess, no one stood up for her. Instead, they were more interested in watching the fun.
Seeing the sneer of Zhao Xinghu and others, Mu Hanyan was filled with anger. She didn't expect these people to be so despicable that they actually tampered with the formation base. She really underestimated them before.
Mu Hanyan's fingers rested on the hilt of the sword. If she didn't show her power, would anyone really think she was a sick cat? Miss Mu's patience had almost reached its limit.
"What are you all doing? How disgraceful the noise you're making! You've brought shame upon the Temple of Life." At this moment, an old man in casual clothes shouted from afar, his voice full of majesty.
"Right Priest!" Fei Changle and the others were like mice seeing a cat. They quickly put away their smiles and saluted him.
Right Priest, Zhao Xinghong! Mu Hanyan's eyes shone slightly.
Zhao Xinghong looks somewhat similar to Zhao Xinghu, but he looks much younger, and his eyes are more restrained, giving people an unfathomable feeling.
Master! Although Zhao Xinghong was in casual clothes, Mu Hanyan only needed one look to know that his strength was far greater than that of his useless brother. Even with her powerful strength, she couldn't see through his true strength.
If I'm not mistaken, he should be at the level of a tenth-order Divine Heart Priest. According to the rules of the temple, anyone who reaches the level of a Divine Soul Priest can go to the main temple to cultivate. Perhaps for many ordinary people, it would be better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix, but for a priest, this statement is completely unworkable.
The cultivation resources and magic skills of the Main Temple are far from comparable to those of the Temple of Life. Although Zhao Xinghong's position as the right priest is second only to the first person in the Temple of Life, it is really nothing in the eyes of the strong men in the Main Temple.
Not everyone has Mu Hanyan's powerful combat skills and abundant training resources.
Therefore, since Zhao Xinghong still stayed in the Temple of Life as his right priest, his strength certainly had not yet reached the level of a soul priest, but to be able to sit in this high position, he would definitely not be too far behind, and it was normal for him to have the strength of a tenth-order soul priest.
Several old men followed Zhao Xinghong closely, and they also made people feel unfathomable. Even if their strength was not as good as Zhao Xinghong, it was probably not too far behind.
