Chapter 701 -396 Dragonwood Island Master_2
These Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends Formation Flags, he also understood quite comprehensively. It is said that they were one of the spirit weapons forged by the Imperial Court using resources collected from all over the world not long after the founding of Da Xuan. They do not possess the capability to amplify effects, yet they could very well gather many peoples’ Yuan Gang inner strength into one place!
It is said.
If there were seventy-two grandmasters, each holding a formation flag, to activate the complete Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends Grand Formation, they could even trap and possibly suppress a high-level expert of the Celestial Human Level!
However, up until today, this spirit weapon has suffered numerous damages over a thousand years of history. The current number of formation flags that still exist is far less than ‘seventy-two,’ and it is still unknown whether even half remain intact. This is one of the reasons why its ranking has fallen to sixty-ninth now, whereas it was previously ranked within the top ten of Da Xuan.
Yan Hong, as a member of the Royal Family and one of the very few grandmasters, holds a certain status within the Royal Family. Her participation in the exploration of Xunmu Cave Heaven this time also included bringing this spirit weapon. It is unknown, however, how many formation flags she has brought with her.
“With these formation flags at our disposal, we can temporarily connect our Yuan Gang and form a combined formation. Even if we truly encounter that old ancestor of the Spirit People Race, we would not be without the power to resist. At the very least, we should be able to hold our ground for a moment. And that Spirit People Race’s old ancestor definitely dares not stray far from the heart of the Forbidden Land for too long. As soon as they find it difficult to defeat us, they would usually retreat quite quickly.”
Yan Hong was on the side, sharing many past exploration experiences and pieces of intelligence regarding Xunmu Cave Heaven.
At this moment, Chen Mu was observing the formation flag in his hand with great interest and carefully probing and sensing the formation’s structure inside. To his perception, it was indeed quite profound, incorporating several mysteries of the Military Formation while resembling the Qiankun Lock Dragon Formation that relied on ‘Formation Base’. The only difference was that this formation base was alive, a moving person rather than a purely inanimate object.
Everyone was quietly gathered in one corner, studying the map and discussing plans for entering Xunmu Cave Heaven. Chen Mu was simply listening on the side, not speaking much. The others took this as an indication of his reluctance to talk and did not think much of it. Only Liu Qingyan occasionally glanced at Chen Mu, revealing a thoughtful expression.
“Mu Chen…”
She muttered this name to herself and a flash of something unusual passed through her eyes as she looked at Chen Mu, but she quickly concealed it.
From the surface aura, Chen Mu hid his breath very well, at most revealing that he was a strong grandmaster. It was very difficult to judge anything else clearly, let alone perceive the complete Qiankun Power.
What Yan Hong and the others could not sense or conjecture did not mean she had no conjectures. After all, she was a grandmaster of the Hehuan Sect and had recently received intelligence coming from Yunmu Island!
Mu Chen…
Chen Mu?
Could this strange grandmaster, who appeared out of nowhere, be him?
Liu Qingyan did not know if others had made any connections regarding Chen Mu’s real identity, but at least for herself, from the short term contact and observation, she was about seventy to eighty percent certain, yet she did not speak out and instead kept her thoughts to herself.
Her coming to Dragon Wood Island to take part in the opening of Xunmu Cave Heaven was originally to obtain the Sea Calming Pearl, to form a good bond with Chen Mu. Now, if she could travel with Chen Mu in the same team, that would be even better, especially with Chen Mu’s strength. Once in Xunmu Cave Heaven, he would likely be the most powerful existence there aside from the Spirit Human Race’s old ancestor, powerful enough to traverse without fear!
Chen Mu was aware of Liu Qingyan’s gaze, but he had not made contact with her.
The situation on Dragon Wood Island was complicated at the moment. It seemed like a gathering of over a hundred grandmasters on the surface, but in truth, there were probably more than one or two from the Blood Exchange Realm hiding in the shadows. Not to mention the Dragonwood Island Master for the moment, there were surely other denizens of the Blood Exchange Realm from Tingchao Cliff in secret.
As for his intelligence, no matter how isolated the Outer Sea was in terms of information flow, a Great Sect like Tingchao Cliff would by now surely understand it clearly. At this point, he could not even guess Tingchao Cliff’s attitude towards him, whether friend or foe.
Overall.
Only after entering Xunmu Cave Heaven and with all the Blood Exchange Realm denizens barred from entry would he truly be unhindered. At present, being in the domain of Dragon Wood Island, he was actually in a quite dangerous situation. Even if Liu Qingyan were trustworthy, he would not speak too much.
As for what would happen after leaving Xunmu Cave Heaven…
Chen Mu’s eyes were deep.
His goal was to refine his Qiankun Martial Body in Xunmu Cave Heaven, to reach Perfection and even its limits. By that time, he would have no fear even facing an encirclement of Celestials. At that point, the attitude of Tingchao Cliff and other perils would naturally become insignificant.
Goodwill or ill-will, neither was important.
About half a day passed.
One after another, more grandmasters arrived, and the many grandmasters gathered beneath the Dragonwood canopy were no longer meeting in small groups, but in larger clusters, with groups of six to seven being small and others having as many as twenty to thirty members.
It was also around this time that a majestic voice, filled with authority, spread from the heavens above.
“I am the Dragonwood Island Master. You have come to Dragon Wood Island at my invitation, and I extend my greetings to you here.”
The voice contained the dignity of the Blood Exchange Realm, while causing the Power of Heaven and Earth to tremble as it spread. Yet, the tone was somewhat polite, without much arrogance.

Although the Dragonwood Island Master was a high-ranking expert of the Blood Exchange Realm, almost the highest tier of existence just below a Celestial, among those present were over a hundred grandmasters from Da Xuan and the Outer Sea, including some renowned young prodigies.
