The Book Demon also reminded Ye Liuyun: "The formation at the throne is rather special. No matter how you try to break it or touch anything, it will trigger the formation and blast all that junk to pieces. Just blow everything up directly.

Then collect the source power beneath the seat, and there’s nothing else valuable here."

The Book Demon was clearly in a good mood, which was why it had casually offered Ye Liuyun this reminder.

"You understand formations too?" Ye Liuyun asked it with some curiosity.

"Isn’t that obvious? I’ve read far more books than you could ever comprehend!" the Book Demon said proudly.

"Then if I have questions about formations in the future..." Ye Liuyun wanted the Book Demon to help him break through Fire Seal Planet’s defensive formation.

"I’m very busy. Where would I find time for your trivial matters! Alright, I need to sleep for a while. You get on with your business!" With that, the Book Demon fell silent again. Ye Liuyun called out to it several more times, but it ignored him completely.

"This guy!" Ye Liuyun smiled bitterly, completely helpless against it.

"What’s wrong?" Luo Yu had no idea who Ye Liuyun was talking about.

"Nothing much!" Ye Liuyun said casually, then had all the martial cultivators split into several teams and disperse throughout other areas of the palace to scavenge for resources.

"What about here?" Luo Yu was even more confused—the book hadn’t been obtained yet, so why were they dispersing everyone as if the exploration had already ended?

"If you can get it, go ahead!" Ye Liuyun deliberately teased her, retreating far off to one side. He also wanted to see what abilities Luo Yu possessed.

"Huh? If I go get it, won’t that trigger the formation?" Luo Yu didn’t understand what Ye Liuyun meant.

"It definitely will! But I’ve completely given up on this formation—I can’t break through it, and I can’t force my way through either. So I’ll just let you give it a try!" Ye Liuyun suppressed his laughter and spouted nonsense with a perfectly straight face.

He had found the real book and was in much better spirits now. He wasn’t in a hurry to collect it anymore and started joking around with Luo Yu instead.

"Oh!" Luo Yu responded, thinking that Ye Liuyun’s formation-breaking method really hadn’t worked. So she actually began contemplating seriously about what to do.

Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun took advantage of turning away to examine that golden plaque with his Golden Pupils. When he first entered earlier, he had only paid attention to what lay ahead and hadn’t used his Golden Pupils on examine plaque above door

Upon looking this time his Golden Pupils finally saw there indeed hidden book within And golden plaque defensive formation ordinary attacks definitely wouldn’t damage

"This book’s hiding spot—ordinary people really couldn’t find"

YeLiuny praised inwardly stopped paying attention golden plaque instead watched smilingly as LuoYu researched how obtain fake book

And final method she discussed with demon wolf actually using Spatial Force quickly take away She also asked whether method feasible

"Then just try"

Although mouth said let her try heart secretly complained "If were simple wouldn’t have acted long ago still need think"

But didn’t say anything merely watched quietly

LuoYu wasn’t confident her own Spatial Force either had demon wolf make move demon wolf simulated attempted then suddenly struck against book

And result exactly predicted—indeed failed move book That bit Spatial Force simply wasn’t strong enough overcome formation’s restriction

They also triggered formation immediately flames burned onto book

LuoYu demon wolf startled immediately sent power extinguish fire didn’t dare use too much force afraid damaging book But their power blocked by formation

Then two them hurriedly increased intensity attacking formation but defensive function particularly strong completely unable break through

Finally book burned ashes before their eyes

Luo Yu and the Demon Wolf were completely dumbstruck, standing frozen in place, at a total loss.

After a moment, the Demon Wolf snapped back to its senses, let out a furious roar, revealed its true form, and slammed a paw down on the entire table. The result was that the table, too, was enveloped by the formation, bursting into flames — even the crown inside was melted down by the fire.

The Demon Wolf was startled as well. It had never encountered a defensive formation that would incinerate everything contained within it.

"Hahaha!"

Only then did Ye Liuyun burst out laughing, leaping up to take down the golden plaque.

Luo Yu and the Demon Wolf, noticing his strange behavior, both turned to look.

"I was messing with you. Don’t panic — the one that burned was a fake. The real cultivation technique is right here!"

As he spoke, Ye Liuyun summoned the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon and had it control the white light, directing it to shine on a spot he indicated.

After dismantling the formation, Ye Liuyun carefully pried open the golden plaque with his hands and retrieved a cultivation manual from inside. The book within looked identical to the fake one on the table — both bore the same five characters: Taixu Refining Qi Jue.

The moment Ye Liuyun got his hands on the book, he stored it in his spatial world, had his clone commit the contents to memory in his sea of consciousness, then embedded restrictions into it before preparing to pass it on to Luo Yu and the Demon Wolf.

Luo Yu pressed a hand to her chest, finally recovering her composure.

"I was nearly scared to death just now! I thought the technique had really been destroyed because of me!"

But then she turned to Ye Liuyun and asked, "How did you know this one was real and the other one was fake?"

Ye Liuyun simply smiled and said two words: "Secret."

Luo Yu shot him a fierce glare, but her mood was still quite good — they had finally found the cultivation technique, so the trip hadn’t been for nothing.

The crushing disappointment from moments ago and the joy she felt now were worlds apart. She needed a moment to settle herself and calm down. But very soon, something even more exciting came her way.

Ye Liuyun’s clone had already set up the restrictions and passed them on to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun then transmitted the cultivation technique to Luo Yu and the Demon Wolf, each with different restrictions applied.

The version given to Luo Yu could be passed on to blood relatives of the same lineage. The one given to the Demon Wolf could only be cultivated by him personally and could not be transmitted to anyone else.

The restriction placed on Luo Yu’s version also allowed it to be shared with others, so the first clone, within the spatial world, transmitted this cultivation technique to the others as well, having them all begin practicing it immediately.

By now it was essentially confirmed that without the corresponding high-level cultivation technique, it was extremely difficult to advance to the Taixu realm on one’s own. Therefore, at the very least, all humans would begin switching to this technique.

As for the demon beasts, Ye Liuyun passed it on to them as well, but they would all wait until the late stage of Guiyi Ninth Layer to see whether their inherited bloodlines contained a higher-level technique. If not, it would still be in time to cultivate this one then.

After receiving the technique, Luo Yu and the Demon Wolf were so excited that neither could settle their minds enough to begin cultivating.

Seeing that they couldn’t focus, Ye Liuyun simply led them out of the main hall, and they roasted meat together while waiting for the martial cultivators to return.

The people in Ye Liuyun’s spatial world, meanwhile, were all quite calm. They had never experienced the feeling of having their true essence suppressed and being unable to break through to the next realm, so the change didn’t feel particularly significant to them. They had already begun cultivating the new technique.

Sounds of battle also erupted from various parts of the royal palace — most likely some of the martial cultivators had run into hidden dangers or golden-armored guards lurking in the shadows.
