Feeling the tiny amount of vitality that she had absorbed from the bug, Xia Jingfei couldn't help but smile, staring at the huge wave that was merely a one-tenth of a meter away from her.

A moment later, Xia Jingfei was swallowed by the enourmous wave of bugs, as it continued on, seemingly unstoppable.

...

In these past few days, wave after wave of bugs had continued throwing themselves towards the grand formation around the Myriad Formation's Valley.

Although the formation did not seem to be shaken by the bugs, seemingly resisting them with relative ease, only a few people knew the actual truth.

Looking at Meng Lin, who was meditating in the air with a pale face, some sweat couldn't help but appear on Yuan Jianjun's forehead.

Suddenly, Meng Ling's eyes flashed open, as she slowly began falling to the ground.

"Are you injured?" asked Yuan Jianjun as he suddenly strode towards Meng Lin, propping her up with her arm.

Without any warning, Meng Lin spat out a mouthful of blood, causing Yuan Jianjun's to suddenly take out a healing pill, and feeding it to her.

"Just some superficial injuries, nothing serious," said Meng Lin as her face slowly returned to it's natural color.

Hearing that, some relief couldn't help but appear in Yuan Jianjun's eyes.

"So, will the formation hold now that you adjusted it?" asked Yuan Jianjun as he looked at his Dao Companion.

"It would have held anyway, but right now it looks like we can send conserve some more resources, after all, we don't know how long this attack will last," said Meng Lin as some thoughts couldn't help but swirl in her mind.

"If I had some time to prepare before the attack, we could have been even more conservative with our resources," said Meng Lin as she suddenly sensed something weird on the outside of the formation.

"Wait here for a few moments," said Meng Lin, interrupting Yuan Jianjun who was about to speak.

Meng Lin disappeared a moment later, appearing at the top of the Myriad Formation's Valley, now staring in the distance.

Suddenly, a frown appeared on her face, after which she shook her head, falling into thought for a few moments.

If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

'Alright,' thought Meng Lin, suddenly waving her hand, creating a small hole in the Grand Formation.

Just as the bugs outside were about to pour in, they suddenly turned to ash, and merely a moment later, a tiny boat flew through the hole, followed by a female figure.

The moment the figure entered the formation, the hole behind her suddenly disappeared, allowing no bugs to enter.

...

For these past few days, dozens of hooded figures scoured the mountain region, slowly moving east, as if searching for something.

Even though they had spent an incredibly short amount of time searching, the cultivators had already crossed out over a third of the mountain region, knowing that their target wasn't there.

But at this moment, deep within the mountain region, a hooded figure opened its eyes.

"They even managed to trick my senses," mumbled the hooded figure staring in a certain direction.

Soon after, the eyes of the hooded figure crossed time and space, but as he stared the Myriad Formation's Valley, a from couldn't help but appear on his face.

Unlike some other people, the hooded figure could clearly see the formations hidden inside of this valley, and as such, he couldn't help but fall into thought.

"If someone at the False Immortal Realm takes action those old antiques from the Formation sects will probably strike," mumbled the hooded figure.

Although the hooded figure was not afraid of those three outside of the mountain region, especially if he had some help, inside of the mountain region was another story.

After a few moments, the hooded figure let out a sigh before staring at the Myriad Formation's Valley with a weird smile on his face.

"You have survived, for now, good luck in the future," mumbled the hooded figure before disappearing into thin air.

...

In another location inside of the mountain region stood an old man, sitting crosslegged, when suddenly, two other old men suddenly appeared next to him.

"Old man Chang, will you take action, otherwise, the Mountain Path might be destroyed by these bugs," said one of the old men.

Hearing that, this so-called 'Old man Chang' let out a helpless sigh.

"You know that I won't take action until that person shows himself, when he does, I will go hunt him down and make him pay for what he had done," said old man Chang as he looked at his two old friends, taking a sip of tea as he stared at the giant Go board in front of him.

Hearing that, both of the other two old men shook their heads, their eyes passing through the enourmous Go board in front of them, as well as the game which old man Chang had been playing with himself for an unknown amount of time.

"Very well," said one of the old men, disappearing, following that, the other old man also left, leaving old man chang staring at the Go board in front of him

Unlike normal Go boards, which only had a few hundred squares, this one had several hundred million squares.

For an unknown amount of time, old man Chang had continued playing a single game with himself, slowly shifting the board to his liking, sometimes taking years for a single move.

The fact that his old friends visited him seemingly gave old man Chang some inspiration, a he took out a black pebble before placing it on the board.

...

At this very moment, in an unknown corner of the Mountain Region, a Mountain Impercievably shifted, transforming ever so slightly.

...

"It looks like I was the one that was right," said Meng Lin as she looked at the group standing before her, her eyes slightly widening as she glanced over Xia Jingfei, who seemed completely unscathed.

After all, if Meng Lin dared exit the Myriad Formation's Valley, she would immediately die, being killed by the bugs.
