Chapter 252"Brother Lu Qing, what should we do next?" In front of a relatively smooth road, after Mago had harnessed the carriage, he asked. The old doctor, Wei Zian, and Xiao Yan stood by the roadside. "Just drive directly. I have specially adjusted the formations on the carriage. Once it starts moving, the formations will automatically activate," Lu Qing said. Usually, Mago drove the carriage, but without the power of divine souls, he couldn't activate the formations. Therefore, Lu Qing set the formations to activate automatically once the carriage started moving, protecting it. "Amazing! I'll give it a try." Upon hearing this, Mago became even more excited. He gently flicked the whip, and the two strong horses, having been with Mago for a long time, were almost in tune with him. They immediately started trotting forward. As the carriage began to move, Mago immediately felt the difference. Since they left Jiuli Village, he had almost always been the one driving the carriage. He was extremely familiar with it. However, this time, the carriage felt unfamiliar as it moved. It became very light, almost floating on the road. A strange force emerged, enveloping not only the carriage but also the two horses in front, causing the speed to increase dramatically. In an instant, the carriage shot forward. "So fast!" The old doctor and the others were shocked. The speed of the carriage was several times faster than their usual full speed. The speed was so fast that Mago almost lost control and nearly crashed into the woods by the roadside. Fortunately, Mago, close to reaching the peak of the Tendons and Bones Realm, had strong control. He managed to stabilize the carriage just in time, avoiding an accident. Even the two horses were startled, frequently looking back, seemingly puzzled by why the carriage was much lighter than usual. "Master Ma, are you alright?" Lu Qing was also a bit startled. Although he knew that the formation would protect the carriage, he couldn't help but ask. "No problem, no problem, I just wasn't prepared." Mago waved his hand repeatedly, his face a bit flushed. "Let me try again." "Be careful then." Sitting in the carriage, Mago took a deep breath, his expression becoming serious. This time, he couldn't embarrass himself again. He flicked the whip. The two horses, hearing the whip, instinctively raised their hooves and started running again. As the carriage moved, the strange force reappeared, enveloping both the carriage and the horses, causing the speed to soar once more. This time, prepared, Mago quickly adapted and controlled the carriage steadily. In Lu Qing's eyes, Mago's carriage, with a gust of wind, quickly disappeared at the bend in the road ahead. Soon, it returned quickly, stopping steadily in front of them. Throughout the process, except for the ticking sound of horse hooves, there was hardly any other sound, not even the noise of the carriage wheels. "Brother Lu Qing, this carriage is incredible after your modifications!" Mago jumped off the carriage, his face full of excitement. Even the two horses snorted loudly, as if agreeing with him. "Master, how does it feel to drive the carriage after the formations were inscribed?" Wei Zian asked curiously. "Excellent!" Mago replied excitedly. "You don't know, once the carriage started moving, a very magical force enveloped the carriage and horses, making them very light and incredibly fast. But during the ride, the carriage didn't feel bumpy at all. It felt like riding the wind, truly amazing!"

"The Lightness Formation, the Breeze Formation, and the Reinforcement Formation. The lightness and wind-riding sensation you felt should be the effects of the Lightness Formation and the Breeze Formation. As for the Reinforcement Formation, it's used to reinforce the carriage's strength, which isn't immediately noticeable." "The Lightness Formation... the Breeze Formation..." Mago and his apprentice muttered these names, looking at Lu Qing with amazement. They never imagined that Lu Qing could actually master such magical techniques. The path of formations, they thought, was something only immortals in novels understood, yet Lu Qing could perform it. Could Lu Qing be an immortal descended to the mortal world? This thought involuntarily rose in their minds. Especially considering all the miraculous things Lu Qing had shown, they felt this thought might be true. For a moment, they looked at Lu Qing with awe. "You don't need to look at me like that." Feeling their change in gaze, Lu Qing roughly guessed their thoughts and couldn't help but laugh. "I'm not an immortal. I just know some formation techniques. Nowadays, with the changes in heaven and earth, these formations have regained their power, allowing me to use them. Didn't you already know that the Flowing Cloud Sect used formations to cause the deaths of so many townspeople in Liuyun Town?" "Heaven and earth changes..." Mago repeated these words, then looked up. "Brother Lu Qing, I've always wanted to ask, I often hear you and the old doctor talk about the changes in heaven and earth. What exactly has changed?" Wei Zian also looked at Lu Qing. "I thought you could hold back from asking," Lu Qing smiled. "Well, it's time to tell you." "The so-called changes in heaven and earth, if our estimates are correct, refer to..." Lu Qing briefly explained the revival of spiritual energy to Mago and Wei Zian, leaving them both stunned. "Brother Lu Qing, do you mean that the so-called spiritual energy is gradually reviving, and the legendary immortals and their techniques actually exist?" It took a while for Mago to come to his senses. "More or less. In fact, tens of thousands of years ago, the path of cultivation truly existed. But later, spiritual energy faded, causing the path of cultivation to decline. Now that spiritual energy is reviving, I think it won't be long before various cultivation techniques reappear in the world." Mago and his apprentice were once again shaken, unable to calm down for a long time. Seeing their shock, Lu Qing didn't continue speaking, allowing them to digest the news. After all, suddenly changing from a martial world to a cultivation world would take time for anyone to accept. "Doctor Lu Qing, did you mean it when you told Xiao Yan you'd teach her to fly?" Wei Zian suddenly asked. Xiao Yan immediately looked up at her brother. "Yes, as long as Xiao Yan practices diligently, it won't be impossible for her to learn to fly in the future," Lu Qing nodded. Wei Zian's eyes lit up. "Doctor Lu Qing, can I also...?" "Learn to fly as well?" Wei Zian nodded vigorously. To ride the wind and soar through the skies, who wouldn't want that? "It's not impossible. As long as you practice hard and break through to the Precelestial Realm, I can teach you too," Lu Qing said directly. If Wei Zian could indeed reach the Precelestial Realm, it would indicate he had great talent. Teaching him some cultivation techniques wouldn't be a problem. "Alright, Doctor Lu Qing, I will practice hard!" With Lu Qing's promise, Wei Zian was overjoyed and made a solemn vow to practice diligently and reach the Precelestial Realm. Mago, seeing this, felt gratified. As for himself, he had no such expectations. He was well aware of his own talent. If he could reach the Internal Organs Realm and touch the level of a Martial Grandmaster, he would be satisfied. The Precelestial Realm was something he had never dared to dream of. If Wei Zian could become a Precelestial warrior, he, as a master, would have no regrets. The old doctor watched this scene with a smile, not interfering with Lu Qing's decision. "Master, since the formations have been inscribed, should we head back or go through Ezhou directly?" Lu Qing asked. The old doctor thought for a while and finally said, "Let's go back. Since the carriage's speed has increased so much, we shouldn't be delayed even if we take a longer route. Ezhou is still too unsuitable for carriages." Before seeing it in person, the old doctor hadn't realized how treacherous the terrain in Ezhou was. Considering the narrow mountain paths, even with the formations, it wouldn't be easy for the carriage to pass. Not to mention, the deep mountains were prone to miasma and poisonous insects, adding to the danger. If it were a regular time, the old doctor might have been interested in exploring. But now, their priority was to reach Zhongzhou as soon as possible, so it was better not to take any detours. "Alright, let's do as you say," Lu Qing nodded. He also preferred going back. With the decision made, everyone began packing up, preparing to set off. Once everyone was seated in the carriage, except for Lu Qing, the others were a bit excited. "Old doctor, hold on tight!" Sitting at the front of the carriage, Mago shouted and flicked the whip. The two strong horses neighed excitedly and raised their hooves, running forward. As the carriage started, a strange force emerged from the formations on the carriage, enveloping it and the horses, causing the speed to increase dramatically. The sudden increase in speed caused a strong pulling force backward inside the carriage. Lu Qing and the old doctor, with their cultivation, were naturally unaffected, sitting steadily. But Xiao Yan and Wei Zian, lacking such skills, were about to be thrown backward. At that moment, a gentle airflow appeared in the carriage, softly holding their bodies in place. "Doctor Lu Qing, what is this?" Feeling the gentle airflow supporting him, Wei Z ian asked in surprise. "This is the effect of the Breeze Formation," Lu Qing smiled. "As the name suggests, the Breeze Formation controls airflow. It not only increases our carriage's speed but also protects those inside from sudden changes." "I see. The path of formations is truly amazing!" Wei Zian exclaimed. Experiencing the magical formations firsthand, Wei Zian's determination to practice diligently grew even stronger. If he could reach the Precelestial Realm, he could also master such incredible techniques! Hearing Wei Zian's praise, Lu Qing smiled. If it were an ordinary cultivator's Breeze Formation, it wouldn't have so many variations. After all, the Breeze Formation was a basic formation. However, the formations Lu Qing inscribed on the carriage, after his calculations and modifications, had significant improvements. This was thanks to the Soul Rune in his brow acupoint. Lu Qing realized that with the Soul Rune's enhancement, his formations were not only perfect but also carried a hint of spirit, making them more effective. "This is the true power of the Divine Rune Sect's inheritance. After condensing the Soul Rune, both the formations and talismans created are far superior to those of ordinary cultivators," Lu Qing thought silently. He used to wonder why the Divine Rune Sect's cultivation method was so difficult, even harder than other cultivation methods. But now he understood that the true power of the Divine Rune Sect lay in the Soul Rune. Those with the Soul Rune could wield much more powerful rune forces than ordinary cultivators. With the power of formations, the carriage moved quickly under Mago's control. If someone were watching from outside, they would see Lu Qing's carriage enveloped in a blue airflow, moving swiftly and mysteriously. Before long, they returned to Yunzhou, arriving outside the small village where they had stayed the previous day. This time, they didn't stop but identified a new direction and quickly left. Thus, the carriage traveled rapidly. By nightfall, they had already left Yunzhou and entered another large state. Table of content
