Chapter 890: Chapter 887: Seeking Guidance from the Beautiful Elder in Person

Waking up naturally from a deep sleep.

Xu Wendong energetically pushed open the door, and by now, the sun was already high in the sky.

”Senior Brother Xu, would you like me to prepare some... food for you?” Xiao Die hurriedly approached.

Actually, she had been waiting in the room next to Xu Wendong’s, ready to serve him.

In the past, upon hearing the sound of Xu Wendong washing up, she would prepare breakfast, but today, it was almost lunchtime.

So, she wasn’t sure whether to prepare breakfast or lunch for Xu Wendong.

”Sure.”

Actually, with Xu Wendong’s current realm, he wouldn’t feel hungry even if he didn’t eat for ten days or half a month, but as an ordinary person, three meals a day had long been ingrained in his bones.

Xiao Die quickly prepared a delicious meal for Xu Wendong, arranging the dishes on the table, and said, ”I went out just now and heard that the Palace Master has gone out, and it’s uncertain when she will return.”

Xu Wendong raised an eyebrow.

Why did she go out?

Couldn’t she have dual cultivated a few more times before leaving?

Xu Wendong had planned to dual cultivate with Fuyao in the evening, hoping to break through the barrier and reach a cultivation level comparable to the Ninth Level of the Golden Core Stage.

But unexpectedly, she left suddenly.

”Could it be that Fuyao also sensed the signs of a Heavenly Tribulation?”

Xu Wendong thought to himself.

Besides this, he really couldn’t think of a reason for Fuyao to go out at this time.

After all.

She needed him too.

Xu Wendong felt a tinge of regret because he didn’t know when Fuyao would return.

Moreover.

When she comes back, will she still need him?

With Fuyao’s bridge-burning nature, even if he begged for dual cultivation after she returned, she might not agree.

”No, I have to find a way to reach the Ninth Level of the Golden Core Stage, and then leave the Jade Maiden Palace.” Xu Wendong’s eyes flashed with determination.

Although he was just a small realm away from the Ninth Level of the Golden Core Stage, for him, the best way to enhance his cultivation level was through dual cultivation with powerful women.

Clearly, even if he returned to the Elixir Sect and dual cultivated with Bai Jie, Xia An’an, and Chen Xi, it wouldn’t have any effect.

All he would gain is a sense of physical and mental satisfaction.

”Junior Sister Xiao Die, in our Jade Maiden Palace, except for the Palace Master, who is the most skilled in formations?” Xu Wendong asked curiously.

Xiao Die thought for a moment and said, ”It seems to be the Grand Elder Ye Qingmei.”

She was only an outer disciple and wasn’t very clear about these matters.

”Ye Qingmei?”

Xu Wendong slightly furrowed his brows, recalling the voluptuous beautiful woman. Her figure wasn’t the slender type, giving off a plump impression.

Her every move exuded a unique charm of a mature woman.

Xiao Die murmured in agreement and said, ”The Grand Elder is also a person with a hard fate. It’s said that she was originally a loose cultivator who roamed the world joyfully with her husband.”

”But after she just reached Foundation Establishment, she encountered bandits.”

”The Grand Elder’s husband died under the chaotic knives of bandits to save her, while she was lucky enough to escape to our Jade Maiden Palace.”

”The Palace Master at the time saw that she had excellent roots and took her as a disciple.”

”However, in our Jade Maiden Palace, disciples who have had Daoist couples don’t have a high status and are even ostracized. Therefore, the Grand Elder devoted herself to researching formations, achieving commendable success.”

”It’s said that the Grand Elder is the one in control of the Nine Heavens Thunder Formation.”

Xu Wendong understood.

Perhaps in the eyes of the Jade Maiden Palace disciples, having had Daoist couples was not a glorious thing.

But for him.

It was a bonus point!

After all.

There’s a world of difference between a maiden and a wife.

After the meal, Xu Wendong said to Xiao Die, ”Take me to visit the Grand Elder. I want to learn some formation knowledge from her!”

”Alright, Senior Brother Xu, please follow me!” Xiao Die led the way, taking Xu Wendong to a small courtyard in the back mountain.

In front of the courtyard were two peach trees, and the trees were producing pink and white peaches, from which a peach fragrance could be smelled even from afar.

Although Xu Wendong had tasted many precious spirit fruits since arriving in the Kunlun Mountains Minor World, he hadn’t tasted peaches in a long time.

However, considering these were planted by the Grand Elder Ye Qingmei, he didn’t pick them recklessly. He bowed respectfully and said, ”Junior Xu Wendong pays respect to the Grand Elder!”

”Come in!”

Accompanied by a gentle voice, the two wooden doors slowly opened.

”Junior Sister Xiao Die, you may go back first!” Xu Wendong said to Xiao Die, then walked boldly into Ye Qingmei’s courtyard.

Beneath a willow tree, Ye Qingmei was seated on a meditation mat in a sky blue dress, with a white snow fox resting on her.

Ye Qingmei smiled faintly: ”Why has Young Master Xu come to my place?”

She knew that since Xu Wendong came to the Jade Maiden Palace, apart from going out once, he hadn’t roamed within the sect and had remained in his compound.

Xu Wendong smiled and said, ”Junior has some questions about formations and wishes to seek guidance from the Grand Elder.” As he spoke, he produced a jade vial and respectfully offered it, then said, ”This is a Spirit-awakening Pill refined by this junior, and I hope the Grand Elder will not disdain it!”

Ye Qingmei paused for a moment, then reached out to receive it, and exclaimed, ”No Golden Core Stage Ninth Level cultivator could refuse a Spirit-awakening Pill.”

A Spirit-awakening Pill could extend lifespan by five years, an irresistible temptation for Golden Core Stage Ninth Level cultivators.

She stood up and led Xu Wendong to the pavilion, pouring him a cup of tea before sitting across from him.

”Young Master Xu is exceptionally gifted and has unique insights into formations. I think, if even you cannot comprehend something, I may not be able to provide the answer you seek.”

”Tell me, what issue have you encountered?” Ye Qingmei’s tone was gentle, sounding particularly comforting.

Xu Wendong seriously asked, ”What is an Illusion Array?”

Ye Qingmei chuckled and said, ”It seems you did not walk out of the Illusion Array set by the Palace Master that day!”

Xu Wendong did not deny it.

If he had walked out of the Illusion Array set by Fuyao that day, he wouldn’t have been used by her.

Nor would he come to inquire today.

Ye Qingmei explained, ”An Illusion Array refers to formations that bewilder the mind to achieve harmful objectives.”

”In an Illusion Array, people’s perception may be deceived, all they see, and feel may be genuine or illusory.”

”Illusions in an Illusion Array encompass things people most desire, fear, and certain painful or happy memories, leading them to be trapped and unable to extricate themselves.”

”More advanced Illusion Arrays can even directly extract information from one’s soul, revealing the most vulnerable parts buried deep within the soul, thus inducing heart demons, causing complete destruction of the divine soul.”

Xu Wendong then asked, ”How can one walk out of an Illusion Array?”

Ye Qingmei murmured, ”When you can face your inner frailty, sorrow, humiliation, anger, disgrace, life, and death, then which Illusion Array can bind you?”
