Chapter 183 Seven Stars Breaking the Formation
As for how Ye Lingxiao would settle accounts with Meng Lingsu if he returned to Jianhu Palace, Zhang Qian didn't care much. After being changed by the Heavenly Demon Soul-Transforming Talisman, Meng Lingsu is no longer the same person she was before. Now, apart from obeying Zhang Qian's words, she doesn't care about anyone at all. If Ye Lingxiao really settles accounts with her, he will be asking for trouble.

Moreover, Zhang Qian didn’t think that Ye Lingxiao would dare to return to Jianhu Palace rashly.

Watching Meng Lingsu's departing figure, Zhang Qian suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. This man with a body that was subject to hundreds of disasters and thousands of calamities and unparalleled talent would be his subordinate from now on.

After returning to his room, Zhang Qian took several elixirs to restore his exhausted magic power and essence, and then took out the things that Mo Yi had looted.

After a careful look, he found that these things were not of much value. However, the jade book containing the "Seven-Star Secret Demon Yuanming Divine Banner" attracted Zhang Qian's great attention.

This jade book was very old. The originally flawless white jade book was now very yellowish and extremely smooth. It was obvious that it had gone through a very long time. Zhang Qian even sensed a sense of ancient and desolate aura from this jade book.

"Could it be that this jade book is something left over from the ancient times?"

Zhang Qian frowned thoughtfully and began to carefully read the methods recorded in the jade book.

When Mo Yi found this jade book before, Zhang Qian only glanced at it hurriedly. Now he looked at it bit by bit, and with his own Golden Immortal realm, the things recorded in the jade book were not too secretive to him.

After an hour, Zhang Qian had completely comprehended the methods in the jade book.

"So that's how it is. Li Qingcheng actually has such a plan!"

After reading the Seven Star Secret Demon Yuanming Divine Banner method in the jade book, Zhang Qian discovered that this method was an extremely exquisite method of refining weapons, and it was also a profound method of setting up formations.

If used to refine weapons, seven divine banners can be refined. The banners correspond to the Big Dipper and draw in the divine power of the stars, allowing the person holding the banners to use the star power to temper their bodies and nourish their souls. Moreover, this kind of divine banner can continuously add various divine gold spiritual materials, and integrate them into the banner with the power of the Big Dipper, continuously improving the power level of the banner. And as long as the level of the divine banner is improved, the body of the person holding the banner will get stronger nourishment and tempering.

This is clearly a subtle method of practicing both the instrument and the body, using magic tools to cultivate the body, which is quite subtle.

However, there is a huge limitation in refining seven magic banners, that is, the person holding the banner must have the spirit of the stars, and it must be the spirit of the Big Dipper to be in harmony with the spirit of the magic banner.

Ye Lingxiao possesses the spirit of the Seven Killing Stars. Although the Seven Killing Stars do not belong to the Big Dipper, his Seven Killing Stars are the most critical link and the core of the Seven Star Secret Demon Yuanming Divine Banner.

In other words, the divine flag that is in harmony with Ye Lingxiao's Seven Killing Stars is the most important.

In this way, in addition to the Seven Killing Banners corresponding to the Big Dipper, Ye Lingxiao held the eighth banner.

Moreover, Zhang Qian could see clearly that this method of refining weapons was only a minor one, its greatest use was to set up an array with eight divine flags, and the divine flags refined by Ye Lingxiao's Seven Killing Spirit were the core of the array.

“No wonder Li Qingcheng thinks highly of Ye Lingxiao. She let Ye Lingxiao go easily even when he killed his disciples in Jianhu Palace. It turns out that Ye Lingxiao is of great use to Li Qingcheng!”

After reading the method recorded in the jade book, Zhang Qian thought about it and roughly understood Li Qingcheng's calculations. Zhang Qian was at the Golden Immortal realm and could fully comprehend this method, but Ye Lingxiao was not like that. He could only understand the method of refining weapons in it. As for the method of setting up the formation hidden in the method, it was impossible for Ye Lingxiao to see it with his realm and knowledge.

Zhang Qian saw clearly that in order to set up the grand formation, all eight divine flags needed to be refined into pure yang treasures, and then Ye Lingxiao's Seven Killing Divine Flags would be used as the center of the formation, and the seven divine flags corresponding to the Big Dipper would be added to form a terrifying grand formation.

Zhang Qian had a vague idea of ​​the function of this formation. According to his calculations, this formation should not be a killing formation but an earth-awakening formation!
The formation is formed with the power of the Seven Stars and the Seven Killing Stars. It is obviously a celestial formation that can connect with the power of the stars.

And this heavenly formation is not a killing formation. It is obviously only used to activate the corresponding ground formation. In other words, the function of this formation is to activate a certain ground formation!
"After spending so much time, did Li Qingcheng discover a treasure land covered by an earth formation? Then he painstakingly searched for a disciple with the Seven Star Spiritual Energy, refined a divine banner, and set up a large formation to open that place?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Qian's eyes lit up. The ground formation that was noticed by a powerful person like Li Qingcheng and opened with great pains must contain earth-shattering treasures.

After all, cultivators with star spirits are rare enough, and according to Zhang Qian's conjecture, to open the ground formation, one needs to gather seven cultivators with the spirits of the Big Dipper, and then have the Seven Killing Stars Spirit as the eye of the formation before it can be opened. Such a troublesome thing is obviously not simple.

"It seems that Ye Lingxiao cannot die for the time being. He has Li Qingcheng's big plan. Li Qingcheng will definitely not let him die easily, and will also train Ye Lingxiao."

Thinking of this, Zhang Qian gave up the idea of ​​killing Ye Lingxiao. He was very interested in what Li Qingcheng was planning. If Ye Lingxiao died, the formation might not be opened.

"Interesting. I didn't expect that I would know such a secret by accident. Li Qingcheng has obviously been planning this for many years. I don't know if he has found all seven disciples who are in the Big Dipper's spiritual power. Ye Lingxiao, I will let you live for a while longer. When that ground formation is opened, you may die without me having to do anything."

Zhang Qian smiled and shook his head, not knowing that Li Qingcheng, who was in the palace of King Taikang, was frightened at this moment.

Before, Ye Lingxiao's body exploded, and Li Qingcheng sensed it through the secret means that she had arranged on Ye Lingxiao, which really made him unable to sit still. In order to plan that thing, he had finally found Ye Lingxiao who was in the spirit of the Seven Killing Stars. How could he allow Ye Lingxiao to die? He had already arranged means on Ye Lingxiao.

Fortunately, he later sensed that Ye Lingxiao was not dead, so he felt relieved, but at the same time, a surge of anger rose in his heart.

Zhang Qian handed the jade book to Mo Yi and gave an order. Mo Yi disappeared in an instant and when he reappeared, he had already arrived at Ye Lingxiao's residence.

Mo Yi used this magical power of instantaneous execution with great proficiency. He put the jade book back to its original place and returned to the Heavenly Demon Pagoda.

The next day, Zhang Qian found Zhan Taixuan and Li Qingque and asked them about it. He then learned that to attend the grand event of Tianji Pavilion, the person holding the invitation did not need to go there by themselves. As long as the time came, the invitation would activate a magic circle and send the person holding the invitation directly to the top of the clouds.

After understanding this, Zhang Qian was no longer in a hurry. He turned around and saw the fairy-like Zhan Taixuan, and he felt itchy in his heart. He even had an inexplicable thought in his mind, that is, whether he should use the Heavenly Demon Soul-changing Talisman to control Zhan Taixuan as well.

The emergence of this thought scared Zhang Qian, and he knew that the sequelae of using the magic power of the Heavenly Demon had appeared. Once a magic power like the Heavenly Demon Soul-Changing Talisman was used for the first time, he would involuntarily want to use it a second time. Once a breakthrough was made with this kind of magic method, if the cultivator's mind was not firm, he would uncontrollably want to continue using it until he completely fell into the devil's way.

Zhang Qian heaved a sigh of relief only after he quickly let out the Heavenly Demon Pagoda to devour the thought. The magical power of the Heavenly Demon was so strange, just like crimes in the secular world, once you did it for the first time, you would immediately find that a new world seemed to have opened up, and you would involuntarily want to do it a second time until you fell into depravity.
