Patriarch Token
“Feng Mu, you’re done?” Lu Deyi was radiant. He was worried sick when Mu Yu suddenly vanished twenty days ago – until he learnt where Mu Yu was from Zhuge Xiaosheng.
“Yes, thank you for asking, Greater Heaven Caster Lu.” Mu Yu bowed to Lu Deyi then the others.
“Kid, did you just say you want to compete against Greater Heaven Stage disciples? Is life so worthless to you?” Of course Situ Yangtian wouldn’t pass up a chance to take a jab at Mu Yu.
“Greater Heaven Caster Situ, I am not disrespecting life. I merely know what to expect against them as I locked horns with Mo Ziming and, therefore, am confident.”
“I object!” exclaimed Lu Deyi. “Mo Ziming is Ultimate Immortals Ranking’s rank seventy one. Why would you risk your life?”
Zhuge Xiaosheng voiced, “Feng Mu, I know you are blessed with remarkable talent and that Grandmaster has acknowledged you. Even so, you must know where you stand. Greater Heaven Caster Lu is right. You are no match for Mo Ziming, and he’s not even Talisman Sect’s best. Their best is rank sixty-seven on Ultimate Immortals Ranking – Ling Zheng. He did lose to Mu Chenghong last year, but he is ranked higher than Mu Chenghong on Ultimate Immortals Ranking this year. We have no clue who you will be matched up against. If you are matched up against Ling Zheng…”
“Feng Mu, I’m confident you will surpass them one day. Now, though, is the time for you to focus on improving yourself. Don’t let your talent get to your head. You can participate as a Lesser Heaven Stage disciple but not a Greater Heaven Stage disciple,” Lu Deyi asserted.
Surprise was a beautiful weapon in war. As such, Mu Yu would rather continue leading them on if it meant he could catch the enemy by surprise.
“I understand you all want what is best for me. Nevertheless, I have a message from Grandmaster for you all. Please have a listen.”
Mu Yu clicked a white token to his hand. Besides an active golden formation on the token, the character “Formation” was carved on it was depicted similarly to powerful strokes in calligraphy.
“Patriarch Token?” exclaimed Zhuge Xiaosheng, jumping to his feet along with everyone else.
Patriarch Token sent tremors through the air as it summoned Chen Tiandao’s apparition. He appeared in his white robe, hands behind his back, black hair fluttering.
The nineteen Greater Heaven casters knelt down. “Our respects, Patriarch!”
Sheesh, do you have to go so far for an apparition, Mu Yu wondered, still standing alone.
“Hey, hey, can I copy monarchs and say, ‘Rise’?” Xiaoshuai sneaked out and asked.
“No, get back inside.” Mu Yu pushed Xiaoshuai back inside.
“Whatever Feng Mu says is what I desire. All you need to do is assist him with what he wants to do,” Chen Tiandao nodded and conveyed.
“Yes, Patriarch,” the nineteen replied in synchrony.
Chen Tiandao’s departure was the cue for them to stand up. Zhuge Xiaosheng and company sat back down. Zhuge Xiaosheng sighed softly and warned, “Feng Mu, we will respect your decision as Grandmaster has spoken up. In saying that, I do want to ask you to reconsider your decision. Talisman Sect will be ruthless in the competition.”
“I am privy to the dangers and know what I must do. Please rest assured.”
With Mu Yu’s participation decided, it was easy for them to fill in the remaining slots. That said, they were as worried for him as much as they anticipated his performance. Regardless, it hadn’t changed the grim name list. For example, Song Qingyu and Ma Mingxun had the ideal cultivation but were lagging when it came to formation expertise.
Mu Yu hadn’t leapt to expert status just because he had a bonus year. Nonetheless, Chen Tiandao recommended a number of practical formations that he could learn in that time frame. The rest was on him to study in his own time. At the end of the day, though, he still treated Celestial Swords Nine Catalysts as the ace up his sleeve.
Mu Yu wished to inform Formation Sect of Chen Tiandao’s plight; Chen Tiandao’s consciousness was already in a slumber. Regrettably, it wasn’t time for it. He developed a newfound respect for Chen Tiandao after witnessing what the revered formation caster was capable of. If asked which formation was the greatest, Mu Yu would undoubtedly answer, “Fingertip Flowing Water Formation.”
