Wei Chen possessed the Fire Phoenix Martial Soul, granting him incredible speed, making him the fastest among peers of the same level in the Soul World.
He also bore the Dragon Soul, with the formidable Golden Dragon Martial Soul enhancing his combat power to extraordinary levels.
Additionally, he had the Black Tortoise Martial Soul from Xuan Gui, providing him with terrifying defensive capabilities.
With speed, strength, and defense all at his disposal, even without using any Soul Techniques, Wei Chen was in an absolutely invincible state against opponents of the same rank.
"Is this all you have? You people from Jiaoleimen are so weak!"
Wei Chen's cold laughter echoed for miles, drawing countless astonished gazes from onlookers as he charged through the sky. Many young girls were captivated, secretly infatuated with him.
Even male youths of the same age abandoned their pride in the face of Wei Chen, filled instead with admiration.
In the air, Wei Chen radiated powerful Soul Power, his massive wings blocking out the sun and preventing any strong individuals from Maguan City from even touching his clothing.
Soon enough, all the strong fighters from Maguan City fell to his overwhelming attacks.
Those within the city lord's mansion witnessed this scene and dared not confront Wei Chen; they fled in panic.
With almost just his own strength, he seized control of a heavily fortified city under Jiaoleimen. Wei Chen's power had truly elevated him into the ranks of genuine strong fighters.
Jiaoleimen belonged to the Eighth-Rank Sect, corresponding to the Eighth Rank Soul Realm Expert known as Cloud Spirit Sect. Once Wei Chen reached the Human Soul Realm, he had initially qualified to challenge Jiaoleimen.
However, if another Soul Realm Expert were to attempt this, they would certainly hesitate. After all, Jiaoleimen had many powerful experts; a mass assault would be impossible to withstand. Moreover, the strongest ancestor of Jiaoleimen was a true Earth Soul Realm Expert!
"That Wei Chen is indeed powerful, but it is foreseeable that he will be hunted down by Jiaoleimen and will no longer be able to survive in Blackwater Territory."
"Don't be ridiculous! Didn't you hear that there's an ambitious person behind him who wants to establish the Nine-Rank Sect in Blackwater Territory to rival the Blackwater Sect? They are going to hunt him down; Jiaoleimen isn't that foolish."
"Ma Tao must have sent someone to the Jiaoleimen headquarters. It won't be long before their people arrive. Should we warn him to run?"
The crowd whispered among themselves, casting concerned glances at Wei Chen, urging him, "Friend, the true powerhouses of Jiaoleimen are about to arrive. You should leave quickly! As long as the green hills remain, there’s no need to worry about firewood!"
"Yes, friend, hurry up and go! Once Jiaoleimen's main force arrives, it will be too late!"
"Friend, take our advice and leave now!"
Kind reminders echoed in Wei Chen's ears, but he showed no intention of leaving. Since he was already here, how could he possibly walk away?
He clasped his fists towards the crowd and smiled, "We won't be leaving. As for the people from Jiaoleimen, let them come; whoever comes will die."
"Don't do this, friend. You're strong, but even a hero can't withstand overwhelming numbers!"
"That's right, brother. Don't ignore our warnings. We all know what kind of people Jiaoleimen is; they are meticulous and might send powerful figures after you."
Hearing this, Wei Chen smiled and said, "We'll wait here at the lord's mansion. If they want to kill us, let them come. One comes, one dies; two come, two die."
With that, he glanced at Ji Mei and Gu Yuehong before leading the way into the lord's mansion.
The onlookers watched from a distance, gathering around the lord's mansion without leaving.
They all knew that the real show was just beginning. In fact, it hadn't even started yet.
“Wei Chen, are you really going to do this?” Ji Mei asked with concern. Gu Yuehong was formidable, and with him around, safety was assured. However, revealing Gu Yuehong's strength too early was not a good idea.
“If I can't even handle the people from Jiaoleimen, what’s the point of continuing? The Peach Blossom Sect needs to make a name for itself, and this battle is crucial. I don’t want Gu Yuehong to intervene; I can manage on my own.”
“You can manage on your own?” Ji Mei exclaimed in disbelief, wondering if Wei Chen had lost his mind. “Don’t think that just because you defeated a few Surge Realm warriors, you can take on Jiaoleimen. There are plenty of Eighth Rank Soul Realm Experts within Jiaoleimen. Although you've reached the Human Soul Realm, without strong Soul Techniques, how can you possibly compete with them?”
“Don’t worry, I have my own methods.”
Wei Chen instructed Gu Yuehong to stay alert in the air while he dashed around the city lord's mansion with several Soul Stones in hand, using up hundreds of decent-quality Soul Stones to set them up in various locations throughout the mansion.
“Wei Chen, what are you doing?” Ji Mei, who had been following him closely, asked curiously.
“Can’t you tell? I’m clearly setting up a formation,” Wei Chen replied with a smirk.
“What kind of formation is this? I can’t sense anything.”
“If you could sense it, how would I lure Jiaoleimen’s experts into the trap? Besides, I haven’t activated the formation yet; how could you possibly feel anything?”
…
Half a day later, Wei Chen had nearly completed the formation, but there was still no sign of Jiaoleimen’s people.
“Ji Mei, how far is Jiaoleimen’s headquarters from Maguan City?”
“It’s not too far—about tens of thousands of miles. It takes two hours for someone from Maguan City to deliver a message, and one hour for Jiaoleimen’s people to arrive. So it should take a total of three hours.”
"Why didn't you come earlier? Three hours is enough for me to set up a lot of big Formation Arrays."
Wei Chen sighed helplessly. He had thought that the people from Jiaoleimen would arrive quickly, but in the rush, he had only managed to lay down some killing formations, without even basic defensive or deceptive arrays.
Three hours was more than enough time.
"Ji Mei, you can find a place to rest. Gu Yuehong is watching from above; not even a fly can get in. I still need to set up the formations and can't entertain you," Wei Chen said, sending Ji Mei away. Alone, he began to plan and busy himself within the Lord's mansion.
"Jiaoleimen knows there's a problem in Maguan City. The first wave of people won't be too strong; ordinary formations should be enough to deal with them. But for the second, third waves, or even more, I will need stronger formations."
"The Soul Jade formation that Old Man Han Mang gave me contains countless arrays; it's finally coming in handy now."
"Unfortunately, with my current strength, I can't set up the Ninth Rank Dragon Binding Formation by myself. If I could manage to deploy it, even the strongest ancestor of Jiaoleimen would perish here."
As Wei Chen pondered and arranged the formations, two hours passed. The Lord's mansion was now filled with arrays—large ones nested within larger ones—comprising attack formations, deceptive formations, and defensive formations all intricately interconnected. Once activated, even an ordinary Soul Realm Expert would be thoroughly outmatched.
After completing the formations, Wei Chen felt quite pleased. Gu Yuehong noticed that Wei Chen had some free time and ended his watch duty, landing beside him. "Demon Lotus Emperor, do these things actually work?" he asked lightly.
"Of course they work! It's a formation! Haven't you heard of their power?" Wei Chen looked at Gu Yuehong disdainfully, thinking that dragons relied on brute strength and probably didn't understand formations.
Gu Yuehong scoffed. "Although you are the heir of the Demon Lotus Emperor in this life, I must say your formations are very primitive. In Hua Xia World, powerful human Formation Masters have given us a hard time. Even you have been trapped by some large arrays before; the Demon Alliance has suffered losses due to formations as well. Those arrays can move mountains; what you have here is merely child's play."
"Gu Yuehong, do you know what you're talking about? This is a different time and place. Didn't you keep saying that Soul World is very low-level and can't compare to Hua Xia World?"
"That's only natural."
"Yeah, but why do you insist on comparing the formations of this world with those of Hua Xia World? You know there's no basis for comparison!" Wei Chen looked at Gu Yuehong, who still wore an expression of superiority, as if he were the most powerful and noble. Wei Chen couldn't help but feel a surge of sadness.
"The formations of Hua Xia World are the real deal. The formations here have many flaws and can be easily broken by a clever Formation Master," Gu Yuehong scoffed at Wei Chen.
"That's true, but unfortunately for you, there are no clever Formation Masters in Soul World. My level is already quite strong here."
"Alright then."
Gu Yuehong nodded in silence, then his expression turned mysterious as he whispered, "Demon Lotus Emperor, if you want to learn the profound formations of Hua Xia World, I can help you."
"How can you help?" Wei Chen's interest was piqued; after all, who wouldn't want to learn the formations of Hua Xia?
"I have a spirit stone that records the formations of Hua Xia. If you agree to one condition, I will give you that spirit stone."
"Spirit stone? What's that?"
"It's something from Hua Xia World, equivalent to Soul Stone in Soul World. In Hua Xia World, spirit stones come in various types—some for cultivation absorption, some for recording memories, some for inscribing martial techniques and formations, and others for long-distance information transmission. In short, they are very useful; Hua Xia World is much more convenient than this Soul World."
Gu Yuehong spoke with clear disdain for Soul World.
Hearing this, Wei Chen's interest grew even more. "What do you want me to do?"
"Give me your blood—just a cup."
Gu Yuehong looked at Wei Chen with a strange expression and boldly said, "How about it?"
Wei Chen immediately jumped up, pointing at Gu Yuehong's nose and cursing, "Damn it, do you want to kill me? One cup? Do you think I'm like your dragon kin, with a massive body and countless blood? My body is filled with concentrated essence; one cup will have me dead in no time."
"Then... how about eleven cups?" Gu Yuehong chuckled awkwardly and asked tentatively.
Wei Chen quickly shook his head. "No way, eleven cups is way too much; it would greatly affect my cultivation."
"Demon Lotus Emperor, don't be so stingy. Eleven cups isn't that much; the impact on your body would be almost negligible, right?" Gu Yuehong insisted.
"Impossible. Don't try to fool me; I know exactly how much it affects me. Last time in the Penglai Secret Realm, Ji Mei let me have three cups of blood, and it took me half a month to recover!" Wei Chen refused, showing no interest in such an absurd request.
Gu Yuehong's expression darkened with frustration. Seeing this, Wei Chen felt a twinge of sympathy and said, "Gu Yuehong, as a dragon, can't you maintain some dignity? What can you do by drinking my blood?"
"It has a significant effect," Gu Yuehong replied seriously, staring intently at Wei Chen.
"Well, maybe I’ll consider it," Wei Chen said, crossing his arms and watching Gu Yuehong with interest.
Gu Yuehong gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words through clenched jaws: "Evolution!"
Wei Chen was taken aback. Dragons are born as what they are; for instance, Gu Yuehong is a red dragon and has no chance of becoming the Golden Dragon King. What did he mean by evolution?
