Obligation
The two solutions Chen Tiandao offered for dismantling Nine Heavens Demon Sealing Formation were to forcibly defuse it upon reaching Ascension Realm in his cultivation or through Ju Mang’s help combined with murder. One was unfeasible until who-knows when, while the other wasn’t something Mu Yu wanted to resort to. Kumu probably would’ve opposed going on a massacre, too.
“Mu Yu, which are you going with?” Xiaoshuai queried.
“Go with murder. It’s simpler,” opined the dragon vine.
“Regardless of the method, I will be the one to end Tian Budai.”
“Worry about it after the tournament. We can’t let Talisman Sect celebrate when Third Heaven Palace is supporting them,” said the dragon vine.
“No argument there,” Mu Yu responded.
The warm golden rays and breeze were perfect. Overlooking all of Formation Sect from its highest mountain in person for the first time, Mu Yu gradually cleared his mind. It was a good place to take his mind off the pressure that he would soon have to shoulder.
“I knew you’d personally make a trip here.” Mu Chenghong darted past Mu Yu and sat down on the same rock he sat on in their first meeting through his illusion. “I like this place.”
Mu Chenghong genuinely liked the place as he claimed unlike Mu Yu, who was only beholden to protect it.
“How would you feel if someone decimates it one day?” Mu Yu inquired, wondering, If I don’t hate this place, does that mean I like it?
Mu Chenghong spread his arms. “There are many uncertainties in life. I would rather imprint the perfect image to memory.”
“In other words, you don’t intend to protect it?” Mu Yu asked, watching Mu Chenghong.
“There are many ways to remember something. Perhaps the method you imagine isn’t the same as what I have in mind.” Mu Chenghong’s visage was the complete opposite of the radiant sun, resembling a man forced against his will.
“I will protect this place.”
Mu Chenghong shifted his gaze to Mu Yu, concern replaced with a sparkle.
“Understood.” Mu Chenghong poked the air, manifesting formation lines on his fingertip. “You should check out the third formation tablet when you have time. It’s different to the first two.”
“I no longer need it to prove my status as a Greater Heaven Stage disciple. I am a Greater Heaven Stage disciple.” Mu Yu paused to emphasise, “Just as you are, a Formation Sect Greater Heaven Stage disciple.”
Mu Chenghong returned to his usual blue self and sighed through his nose. He set his gaze on the sky and remarked, “Sadly, time will wash everything away.”
Mu Chenghong stood up and smiled, repeating, “Go check it out.”
Mu Chenghong activated a formation around him. He appeared to have words that were sitting on the tip of his tongue, yet, for whatever reason, he chose to depart, teleporting away.
Just what is your true nature? Why do you want me to view the third formation tablet? What’s he thinking? He can’t be setting me up since he can’t approach it after I broke them.
Mu Yu no longer required Greater Heaven Stage formation foundations to freely control cast formations just as Mu Chenghong didn’t. Howbeit, for the same reason as hiding his cultivation, he didn’t want to let anyone know how much his grasp on formations had progressed.
Mu Yu teleported himself from the mountaintop to Advancement Hall’s exterior. Breaking the third formation tablet couldn’t stop Formation Sect’s downfall or foil Talisman Sect’s scheme. He was merely curious as to why Mu Chenghong insisted he view the third formation tablet.
Mu Chenghong wanted to keep Formation Sect in his memories. Mu Yu wanted to keep Formation Sect in reality.
