Chapter 1480: Heavenly Dao Teleportation Formation
Library of Heaven's Path · 第1480章 天道传送阵法
At the Saint Yuan family, Yuan Tao should be there. If it were close, borrowing the teleportation formation wouldn't be a big problem, but half a month's journey is still too far!
Since he couldn't think of any other way, then... if others could build a teleportation formation, why couldn't he build one and teleport directly?
"Build a teleportation formation?"
Chen Leyao was stunned, then shook her head with a bitter smile: "Teleportation formations can only be built by true nine-star formation masters, and they also need a profound understanding of space to do it. The layout is extremely complex and requires intense calculation; a single mistake can lead to a vast error..."
"I didn't see the Ice Abyss Palace's teleportation formation when it was built, but I saw it once during repairs. Three nine-star formation masters spent three whole months calculating before finalizing the layout. It's too difficult! Not to mention that we lack the strength and understanding of formations; even if we had enough, we couldn't do it quickly!"
A teleportation formation, for long-distance travel, sends people millions of kilometers away. It must be calculated precisely; even the slightest error could land them far from their intended destination.
For this reason, even if one knew how to set up the formation and had sufficient strength, it wasn't something that could be easily accomplished.
Otherwise, the entire continent would be filled with them, and they wouldn't be so rare that many had never even seen one.
"Three months?"
Zhang Xuan's scalp tingled.
Just repairs took that long; building one would certainly be harder.
Was there really no way to get there quickly and save her?
"Precise calculation, pinpoint accuracy—for others, it indeed requires a lot of effort, but... I'm different!"
After pondering for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up.
No matter what formation, setting it up requires calculating directions, matching the surrounding environment, and then deploying formation flags...
Normally, others would need to put in great effort, using compasses, various measurements, and calculations based on terrain, environment, and spiritual energy conditions... but he was different. With the Library's appraisal, any incorrect direction could be easily marked, saving all the calculation effort!
If other formations could do this, teleportation formations should be no exception!
What took others great effort to achieve might be effortless for him, just like other formations.
"Come, let's go to the Wisdom Hall. I'll see if there are any books on teleportation formations to study. If I can set one up, great; if not, we'll think of another way!"
Having thought of this, Zhang Xuan didn't hesitate and spoke up.
"Study? Now?"
Chen Leyao's face twitched.
Not to mention how difficult it was to set up a teleportation formation, such formations involved space and were profoundly mysterious. Learning now... it was too late!
It would be more reliable to set off immediately.
"There's no time to waste. Hurry!"
Not wanting to explain, Zhang Xuan walked out first.
He had been to the Formation Master Guild in the Wisdom Hall once and had taken a rank assessment there, so he knew the location well. He flew over immediately.
Although Chen Leyao couldn't understand his reasoning, she knew it was to save the young palace master, so she followed without further comment.
Soon they found the guild's Elder Su.
This Elder Su had overseen his eight-star formation master assessment and witnessed Luo Xuanqing's sabotage, so they were somewhat familiar.
"I'd like to look at some books on teleportation formations. Do you have any here?"
Zhang Xuan stated his purpose directly.
"Teleportation formations have always been a research direction of the Saint Son Hall. When Saint Kui was still alive, the Saint Son Hall was reputed to be the best in this area and left behind many books. If you want to see them, I can take you there."
Elder Su nodded.
Zhang Xuan's current identity as an eight-star master teacher and eight-star formation master qualified him to view such books.
"Thank you for leading the way, Elder Su."
Zhang Xuan clasped his fists.
Before long, they arrived at the library. After being shown the direction, Zhang Xuan walked over and saw row upon row of books on teleportation formations, densely packed and countless.
The Saint Son Hall had geniuses in various professions. Although teleportation formations were advanced, many experts studied them, and there were numerous books on how to set them up, determine positions, and utilize space.
Zhang Xuan nodded to himself, scanned the books, and recorded them in his mind.
"Correct!"
With a thought, a book appeared before him, and he quickly opened it.
"Heavenly Dao Teleportation Formation..."
He breathed a sigh of relief.
There were enough books here to successfully form a Heavenly Dao-level formation method. He tapped a finger, and the knowledge entered his mind, integrating with his previous understanding of formations.
Having read all eighth-level formations, his understanding of formations was comparable to an early nine-star formation master. Coupled with having reached the third realm of the Space Derivation Scripture, although teleportation formations were profound, they held no major secrets for him.
Before long, he fully understood.
Without bothering to look at other books, he stepped out and found Elder Su again: "Elder Su, do you have any nine-level formation flags? Could I borrow one?"
A teleportation formation capable of transporting people was a ninth-level formation and required nine-level formation flags to set up.
"I don't have any nine-level formation flags."
Elder Su shook his head.
He was only an eight-star formation master; how could he have such advanced flags?
"Does anyone in the Saint Son Hall have flags of this level?"
Zhang Xuan asked.
"The acting hall master, Master Zhan, should have them... I'm not sure about others." After thinking for a moment, Elder Su said.
"Master Zhan?" Zhang Xuan nodded.
He had met this Master Zhan once before; he had taken him to the inner courtyard. As the acting hall master of the Saint Son Hall, his cultivation had reached the ninth level of the Saint Domain, the strongest. Only he was qualified to possess nine-level formation flags.
Even if others had them, they probably couldn't control them.
The Saint Son Hall had been very glorious in the past, with many true nine-star master teachers, but now without a hall master to lead, it had weakened considerably.
"Thank you, Elder Su. Where is the acting hall master now?"
Understanding this, Zhang Xuan asked.
"He should be in the Hall Master's Hall. You can go directly there to find him."
Elder Su smiled slightly.
"Good!"
Relieved, Zhang Xuan exchanged a few words with Chen Leyao, then leaped up and flew toward the Hall Master's Hall. Just as he took off, he suddenly felt a chill all over.
He quickly shrank in midair, shifting half a chi to the side.
Ssshh!
No sooner had he done this than he felt the space where he had just been torn apart. A sword mark slashed through the air, striking the ground and carving a huge pit.
"I'll kill you..."
Then a roar exploded nearby. Hearing this voice, Zhang Xuan was startled and quickly turned his head, seeing a young man floating not far away, his eyes blazing with fury.
"Luo Xuanqing, what's wrong with you?"
His face darkened, and he couldn't help shouting.
