In order to avoid being wiped out by Liu Jingyu, Liu Jingyun had to find another way and go to the secular world to develop his power, so that he could have more time to study his "Immortal Palace".
Liu Jingyun found out from the secret book in the "Immortal Mansion" that the "Ten Miles and Eight Wastelands Fighting Stars Shifting Formation" can reverse time by eighteen years.
Reversing time might seem like a trivial matter to many, but it was a boon to Liu Jingyun. Eighteen years ago, Liu Jingyu hadn't yet been possessed. Eighteen years ago, the Liu family was at its peak. Liu Jingyun knew the developments in the cultivation world over the years. Even if he couldn't bring the Liu family to dominance, he could still lead them to avert their fate of extermination.
From then on, Liu Jingyun began to look everywhere for mortals with "great luck" to prepare for the formation.
But luck is a very mysterious thing.
Some people have good luck, but there are many who have better luck than him. Some people have bad luck, but there are probably many who have worse luck than him. Liu Jingyun was overwhelmed by the choices and didn't know what criteria to use to determine who was "lucky".
After thinking about it, Liu Jingyun felt that this formation was a heaven-defying formation. If he wanted to find someone, he had to look for those with extraordinary luck so that his formation could achieve the greatest effect.
The first person Liu Jingyun fell in love with was Yu Xiaohan.
Even though Yu Xiaohan's luck had been consumed by the Qian family's luck-absorbing formation for so many years, he was still one in a million.
Liu Jingyun originally thought that as a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, it should be effortless for him to capture a few "lucky people" and set up a formation in the secular world.
Soon, Liu Jingyun realized that he was too arrogant. Not only did he fail in his attempt to kidnap Yu Xiaohan, but he was also hit by something he couldn't see, seriously injured. He finally managed to escape back to his base camp, Ning'an Temple.
Liu Jingyun has been hiding in the temple, healing his wounds while thinking about the reasons for his failure.
Liu Jingyun felt that someone like Yu Xiaohan, who possessed "great luck" and had many people protecting him, should not be someone he could shake. He might as well be more realistic and lower the standards so that he could collect the luck needed to set up the formation as quickly as possible.
After studying the secret book in the "Immortal Mansion" again, Liu Jingyun discovered that the "Ten Miles and Eight Wastelands Fighting Stars Shifting Formation" could be changed into a simplified version. He only needed a person with "great luck" as an initiator, collected the luck of a large number of ordinary people, and used the blood of a hundred mortals as an initiator to start it.
Liu Jingyun was overjoyed. One hundred and eight lucky people weren't easy to find, but he could always find one. As for ordinary people, Liu Jingyun didn't find it that difficult. China was vast, rich in resources, and most importantly, had a huge population! Just one hundred people, surely they could be enough.
Liu Jingyun had no idea what the consequences would be for the mortals he used to set up his formation. He only knew that if other cultivators learned of his use of mortals, they would undoubtedly consider him an evil cultivator. To ensure a stable life, Liu Jingyun didn't dare seek out other cultivators to join his Shangqing Palace. Instead, he found an opportunity to connect with the Loose Cultivator Alliance, agreeing to help each other.
There were many elixirs and magic weapons in Liu Jingyun's "Immortal Palace". Lin Muchen, the leader of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, did not understand the details of Shangqing Palace and thought that Liu Jingyun's Shangqing Palace was a medium-sized sect of cultivation, so he naturally agreed.
After Liu Jingyun was injured, he didn't dare to run around. He took a few magic weapons from the "Immortal Palace" and asked Abbot Hongxin to send someone to find Lin Muchen. In exchange for the magic weapons, he asked the people from the Loose Cultivator Alliance to help him collect luck.
This is why Chen Sanjiang set up the "luck-sucking array" in the Qingxin Bar.
After Chen Sanjiang was captured, Lin Muchen's situation became more serious. Liu Jingyun still believed that everything was fine with Lin Muchen, and never imagined that the Loose Cultivator Alliance would be wiped out by Master Qiankunjing and the Black Bear Demon in just one day.
Liu Jingyun took several bottles of elixirs from the "Immortal Mansion", and it was not until more than two months ago that his injuries stabilized.
After Liu Jingyun was injured, he didn't dare go to Kyoto to look for Yu Xiaohan. But the search for the "lucky person" couldn't be delayed. Even though only one was needed, he had to find one anyway, right?
In the end, Liu Jingyun had no choice but to set up a formation with Ning'an Temple as the center, using the array plates produced in the "Immortal Mansion". For someone with great luck like Ren Zhongyuan, the formation would sound an alarm as soon as they stepped within a 100-kilometer radius of Ning'an Temple.
After Ren Zhongyuan returned to Hongqi Village, he was immediately discovered by Liu Jingyun's men.
The luck of Ren Zhongyuan is exactly what Liu Jingyun urgently needs to set up his formation.
Last night, Liu Jingyun ran to Hongqi Village wearing an invisibility cloak and kidnapped Ren Zhongyuan from his sleep.
Liu Jingyun, having just recovered from a serious injury, struggled to control his invisibility cloak. On their return journey, Liu Jingyun brought Ren Zhongyuan to the foot of the mountain where Ning'an Temple stood. His spiritual energy was already weakening. Liu Jingyun had no choice but to leave Ren Zhongyuan behind and return to Ning'an Temple alone. He then arranged for the abbot, Hongxin, to retrieve him from the mountain.
Hongxin and Huiwu were so busy carrying people that they didn't expect someone else to get up in the middle of the night. Their every move was seen by Huikong.
For safety reasons, Liu Jingyun kept his spiritual awareness over Ning'an Temple. When Huikong threatened Huiwu, Liu Jingyun immediately discovered him.
Someone like Huikong would definitely not be in Liu Jingyun's eyes under normal circumstances. Just when Liu Jingyun was about to kill Huikong to silence him, he found that there was something special about Huikong's hands, so he asked Huiwu to take Huikong to the side hall.
Although Huikong wasn't a very good person, he was gifted with a pair of rare "gold-touching hands." Some people's hands are naturally more auspicious than ordinary people, making it easier for them to win prizes or lottery tickets.
After Ren Zhongyuan was carried into the side hall by Hongxin and his men last night, Liu Jingyun used his spiritual sense to carefully examine Ren Zhongyuan's body. His intuition told him that Ren Zhongyuan had a treasure on him, but what exactly was it? Liu Jingyun had no clue.
Liu Jingyun did not give up and personally started to investigate.
Strangely, when Liu Jingyun's spiritually charged palm touched Ren Zhongyuan, a transparent protective shield appeared on Ren Zhongyuan's body, repelling Liu Jingyu's palm. After Liu Jingyun stopped touching Ren Zhongyuan, the protective shield slowly disappeared.
This surprised Liu Jingyun greatly. The protective shield on Ren Zhongyuan's body was clearly the high-level defensive talisman that their cultivators spoke of in legend! Such jade talismans were not even found in the "Immortal Mansion".
Liu Jingyun wanted to get Ren Zhongyuan's defensive talisman very much, so he borrowed Huikong's "Gold-touching Hand". Unexpectedly, Huikong was unable to find where Ren Zhongyuan's defensive talisman was hidden. How could this be possible?
"Touch his neck again and see if there is a rope." Liu Jingyun jumped down from the platform, circled around Ren Zhongyuan a few times, and then gave Huikong some instructions.
Seeing Liu Jingyun's serious expression, Huikong reached out and felt around Ren Zhongyuan's neck again. This time, Huikong actually found something.
