The Nine Dragon Coffin Formation posed no issues.
The blueprints from Master Jin were also flawless.
The Nine Dragon Coffin Formation was indeed a Tenth Rank High-Level array, one of the top-tier formations in the Soul World.
If this formation was successfully set up, the defensive capabilities of the Peach Blossom Sect would be as formidable as the cumulative effects of all previous formations combined.
Those formations layered with the Nine Dragon Coffin Formation would become even stronger.
In this case, one plus one did not equal two; it was greater than two.
What Wei Chen wanted, what the Peach Blossom Sect needed, was precisely this effect.
However, as he neared completion, Wei Chen suddenly realized that the Nine Dragon Coffin Formation could not only attack external enemies but could also be manipulated to directly assault everyone within the formation indiscriminately.
Anyone beneath the Soul Realm would have nowhere to escape when caught in a round of attacks; they would all perish.
“Fortunately, that old man Han Mang reminded me time and again. Otherwise, I would have fallen for it. That bastard Master Jin wants to wipe out our entire Peach Blossom Sect! Could it be Thunderstorm's idea? No way. I know Thunderstorm well enough; there’s no reason for him to target our Peach Blossom Sect at a time like this.”
“Even if he wanted to deal with us, he wouldn’t do it so openly. He sends Master Jin to help us on the surface, only for most of us to end up dying at Master Jin's hands. Thunderstorm’s reputation would be ruined. For someone like him, reputation is everything.”
With this reasoning, Wei Chen concluded that Master Jin's scheming was certainly not directed by Thunderstorm.
“Could it be because I embarrassed him during our duel? Is he seeking revenge by setting the flames upon the entire Peach Blossom Sect?”
“That’s unlikely. To go through such elaborate means just for that would make him a madman.”
“Since he’s not a madman and cannot be sent by Thunderstorm, then what is going on?”
With these questions swirling in his mind, Wei Chen cautiously completed the final phase of the Nine Dragon Coffin Formation. The closer he got to finishing, the more challenging it became. His own skills in formation were barely sufficient but required immense effort.
After the Nine Dragon Coffin Formation was completely set up, Wei Chen was nearly exhausted.
He fell to the ground and shot a fierce glance at Master Jin, sneering, "Master Jin, now that the Nine Dragon Coffin Formation is complete, what do you have to say?"
"What can I say? This is my own formation. I traveled thousands of miles and worked hard to help you set it up, and yet you doubt me for no reason. I will report this matter truthfully to Thunder Sovereign and ask the Sect Leader for an explanation. The Fire Sect and Peach Blossom Sect could have become allies of Cloud Spirit Sect, but now, forget it. My position in the Fire Sect can influence it to sever ties with the Peach Blossom Sect. I am not speaking empty words; I have that capability. Within the Fire Sect, my status is second only to Thunder Sovereign! Even ordinary elders do not hold a candle to me!"
Master Jin glared at Wei Chen, his expression fierce and threatening, intimidating indeed.
Wei Chen coldly smiled and said, "Old Bastard, once I recover, I'll deal with you properly. Gu Yuehong, keep a close watch on this old fool; make sure he doesn't escape."
Gu Yuehong nodded and replied, "I understand. If he manages to escape from my control, I will take my own life as an apology."
Gu Yuehong was proud; as a member of the Dragon Clan, if she couldn't even control an old man without letting him escape, how could she face anyone else?
It would be impossible to maintain her reputation.
After a while, relying on countless Soul Stones, Wei Chen recovered.
Atop Cang Mountain, a grand hall had been built under Musa's supervision, and all the facilities inside were also in place.
Wei Chen gathered everyone, including those who had helped build the formation at the mountain top. He selected seven Ninth-Rank Array Masters as representatives to attend the first formal meeting of the Peach Blossom Sect.
The Peach Blossom Sect had not yet held its celebration, and Musa had not yet become the true leader of the sect; thus, Wei Chen still presided over this meeting.
Donghua, Gu Yuehong, Ni Junlin, Ji Mei, Snow Cicada, Mu Qingyan, Weirou, and others were all present. Even members of the Wei Family found their places in the corners and quietly observed.
They had no voice in this matter. The longer they stayed at Cang Mountain, the more they recognized Wei Chen's prowess; they both respected and feared him.
Following Wei Chen to Cang Mountain was undoubtedly their best choice. Coming from that wretched place in Eastern Wasteland to find a nearly top-tier force in Central Domain was a stroke of luck. Moreover, the Wei Family's status within Peach Blossom Sect was not low; they felt it was a fortune earned through eight lifetimes of good karma that brought them such an opportunity.
A multitude of gazes focused on Wei Chen.
Inside the grand hall, Wei Chen had set up dozens of amplification arrays and communication formations around Cang Mountain. This time, during the Peach Blossom Sect meeting, everyone inside and outside Cang Mountain, including those stationed around it, could hear everything.
Wei Chen sat at the high seat, with Donghua to his left, followed by Ni Junlin, Ji Mei, and others. To his right was Han Mang, with Han Che in the second position, followed by the Pharmaceutical Sovereign, Ginger Tooth, and others.
Musa stood beside Wei Chen as the future sect leader. This not only symbolized authority but also served as a foundation for Musa's future role, allowing him to learn from Wei Chen's style of doing things.
From their initial meeting in Wushuang City, Wei Chen and Musa had been good brothers. However, as Wei Chen grew increasingly formidable, Musa began to feel a sense of awe towards him that overshadowed their brotherly bond.
Wei Chen noticed this change but felt powerless to stop it.
It was an inevitable transformation that could not be prevented.
Many things could not return to how they once were.
The past was meant for reminiscing, not for making unnecessary changes in pursuit of bygone feelings.
Not just Musa; even women like Weirou felt an inexplicable fear towards Wei Chen.
This was not due to any mistreatment from Wei Chen or a change in his character after gaining power. He remained consistent in his treatment of them. Yet they sensed that the current Wei Chen was no longer the same as the past one.
The old Wei Chen resembled a lovable neighbor boy, while the present Wei Chen was a true man—capable of supporting an entire realm with his own hands, a genuine man.
In the eyes of those women, Wei Chen had completed his transformation from a neighborly boy to a dependable man.
All of this had occurred without anyone realizing it.
Gu Yuehong held Master Jin captive, standing in the center of the hall.
“Master Jin, how dare you stand there with a face? Kneel before me!”
Wei Chen cleared his throat and shouted, pulling everyone back from their thoughts.
His voice carried far and wide, reaching those gathered around Cang Mountain, who clearly heard his words.
Hundreds of thousands of people were instantly stunned. They recognized that it was Wei Chen's voice.
“Is it starting? Damn, I never expected the news from above to be true!”
“That Wei Chen fellow has some guts, daring to hold a public trial against Fire Sect's Formation Master!”
“I heard Master Jin brought this upon himself; he wanted to cause trouble at Cang Mountain and wipe out Peach Blossom Sect. If it were me, I couldn't tolerate that either.”
“Who knows what the truth is? Thunder Sovereign sent Master Jin to assist Peach Blossom Sect in constructing formations, but who would have thought it would end up like this?”
“No one knows the relationship between Wei Chen and Thunder Sovereign. Just watch; I think trouble is brewing. If Wei Chen really finds some fault with Master Jin, where will Thunder Sovereign put his face?”
“Exactly, something big is about to happen! Thunder Sovereign won't let this go easily.”
“Tch! You shortsighted folks! If Wei Chen didn't have confidence, would he dare to hold a public trial? In my opinion, Wei Chen must have found evidence of Master Jin's crimes that even Thunder Sovereign can't refute.”
“My guess is similar to yours, but I think Master Jin's offenses threaten not just Peach Blossom Sect but also Fire Sect. Otherwise, Wei Chen wouldn't dare go after him. After all, no matter what, Master Jin is still part of Fire Sect. How would Thunder Sovereign react if Wei Chen went after their top Formation Master?”
“Exactly! Now that Peach Blossom Sect has finally stabilized its position, how could they afford to offend a major force like Fire Sect? There are many contradictions here; Wei Chen isn't someone without brains. Let's just wait and see.”
“Not just wait and see, but wait and listen... We don't have the right to go up there; only seven Formation Masters were invited as witnesses. Our Cloud Spirit Sect has one of them. When he comes down from Cang Mountain, I'll ask him and find out. Hehe.”
At that moment, Master Jin's voice rang out.
"Child, you think you can make the Old Man kneel? In the Soul World, only the Thunder Sovereign can make the Old Man kneel! Ah... ah... ah!"
In the hall, as Master Jin finished speaking, Gu Yuehong kicked him hard in the groin. That kick contained a force of hundreds of thousands of pounds, instantly shattering Master Jin's leg bone.
Master Jin fell to the ground with a terrible scream, his voice echoing for miles around Cang Mountain, sounding extremely horrifying.
"Brutal, truly brutal!"
"Does Wei Chen really not fear retaliation from the Fire Sect for doing this?"
"Stop talking nonsense and just listen; this matter is not that simple."
...
"Master Jin, that Nine Dragon Coffin Formation is indeed a remarkable array. Here, I must thank you for setting up a Tenth-Rank Advanced Formation for our Peach Blossom Sect. If it weren't for you, I might never have seen a Tenth-Rank Advanced Formation in my lifetime."
Wei Chen said lightly, suddenly raising his voice by eight degrees: "However, Master Jin, your intention in helping us establish that Nine Dragon Coffin Formation was to annihilate our Peach Blossom Sect. If it weren't for my quick thinking at the last moment, how many of us would still be alive in the Peach Blossom Sect now?"
"Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you that Master Jin's Nine Dragon Coffin Formation allowed him to choose freely at the final stage: to establish a true defensive array or to directly activate the formation for indiscriminate attacks on Cang Mountain! Just one round of attacks would instantly kill everyone within Cang Mountain who is beneath the Soul Realm! This situation is something no one wants to see! Master Jin has ulterior motives and seeks to eliminate almost all Formation Masters in the Central Domain; his intentions are treacherous!"
Wei Chen's words left everyone in stunned silence!
The content was simply too shocking.
