Chapter 252: Meeting in the Lower Realm

"None!" The old divine thought shook his head. "There’s only a strange red Demonic Energy ahead! Never seen red Demonic Energy before. Don’t know what’s causing this anomaly."

He couldn’t see it?!

You You grew more startled. She saw illusions while the old divine thought couldn’t even perceive those. And what about that newly appeared skill? What was happening?!

"Girl, we should leave quickly!" The old divine thought said worriedly. "Red or not, Demonic Energy means trouble. If those Bone Dragons wake…"

You You nodded. Right! Whether illusion or Demonic Energy, anything surrounded by Bone Dragons couldn’t be good. She glanced at the oddly familiar red-haired man before urging her Spirit Sword upward.

The abyss’s Demonic Energy felt thicker than the cave’s. Though knowing nothing lay ahead, the oppressive darkness still unnerved her. Fortunately, the energy dispersed as she approached. Even formations dissolved upon her passing.

They flew unimpeded for half an hour until faint light appeared.

"Exit! There’s the exit!" The old divine thought exclaimed.

You You sped up, the dim sky coming into view. Just as she prepared to surge through, she detected formation ripples and halted abruptly.

"What’s wrong?" The divine thought asked.

"There’s a formation above." You You retrieved a revealing talisman from her storage bag. Golden light flashed, exposing a massive golden net sealing the exit, faint purple currents swirling within.

"This… looks like a Divine Formation!" The old divine thought urged, "Fly closer."

The purple hues intensified as she approached.

"Definitely a Divine Formation!" he confirmed. "But I don’t know formations well. This one’s too complex."

You You sighed. Yuan Papa would’ve solved this instantly.

"Should I force through?" She summoned her Spirit Sword.

"No!" The divine thought panicked. "Breaking it might wake the Bone Dragons! We can’t risk that."

"Find another exit then?"

"Too dangerous below!" He shuddered, recalling bone mountains and suffocating Demonic Energy. "Use the Divine Calling Order! Summon other divine thoughts until we get a formation expert!"

You You: "…" Feels like you’re just dragging others into this.

——————

"I am the divine thought of Ling Wei, master of the forty-eighth palace. Sent to guide your cultivation of the Great Dao. The Heavenly Dao shifts but…"

"Know formations?" You You interrupted.

"I specialize in artifacts. If you want formation studies…"

"Move aside then." She pulled the divine thought into her divine sense.

Four divine thoughts now stood in her consciousness.

Divine Thought Four: "???"

"Three summoned, none know formations. Keep going?" You You asked. "We’ll have enough for basketball soon."

The original three chorused: "SUMMON!"

If they were stuck here, others should suffer too!

Sighing, You You activated the Divine Calling Order again.

"I am…"

"Formations?" She cut off the new arrival.

"How did you know my specialty?!"

"Perfect!" She pointed upward. "Solve that Closed Heart Formation."

The newcomer gaped. "This legendary sealing formation requires divine master-level skill! Who…?"

"Can you break it?"

"Theoretically, but…"

"Good enough." She pulled him into her divine sense.

Five divine thoughts now faced each other.

Newcomer: "…"

This isn’t a trial – it’s a divine convention!
