Chapter 12808: Destiny Formation
"You know, the biggest advantage of the natal formation diagram is that its power can be continuously improved as your cultivation level increases." Jiu Lao continued.

"This means that as long as you continue to practice and improve your realm, this Seven Deadly Killing Formation will also be strengthened accordingly. Its upper limit is extremely high, and the strongest can even reach the level of a sixth-level upper-grade holy pattern formation. What a powerful force that will be!"

After hearing this, Ling Xiao's eyes sparkled with excitement. He knew very well what the power of the sixth-level upper-grade holy pattern formation meant. It would be a force that was enough to shake the world, giving him a strong guarantee on his future path of cultivation.

Jiu Lao looked at Ling Xiao's reaction and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He went on to say, "The process of refining the formation diagram this time was extremely smooth. Perhaps you were really lucky, and you actually found the last material you needed at the critical moment. Coupled with the rare materials I carefully stored over the years, we were able to create such a perfect formation diagram."

"But don't be complacent about it."

Jiu Lao changed the subject and said seriously, "Although the natal formation diagram is powerful, it also requires you to constantly practice and comprehend it in order to truly exert its power. You must remember that the road of practice is endless. Only by continuous efforts can you go further."

Level six, top quality!

When Ling Xiao heard this word, the shock in his heart was beyond words.

He knew very well that the power of a fifth-grade upper-grade holy pattern formation diagram was already enough to rival a strong man at the peak of the martial soul realm, and now the life formation diagram in his hand had reached the sixth-grade upper-grade!
This was beyond his imagination, which meant that he would possess terrifying power that was three major realms higher than the Martial Soul Realm.

The strong men he had seen so far who had surpassed the Martial Soul Realm, such as Qiu Shui Kui, had only surpassed one realm. But the life formation diagram in his hand was equivalent to surpassing the Martial Soul Realm by three major realms!

Its power level can almost crush those legendary existences. For Ling Xiao, this kind of power is both a temptation and a responsibility.

Ling Xiao looked up at Jiu Lao, his eyes full of gratitude and respect. He knew that Jiu Lao must have spent countless efforts and time to refine such a treasure.

He couldn't help but say, "Jiu Lao, I really don't know how to thank you. You must have paid a huge price to refine such a good thing..."

Jiu Lao shook his head slightly, with a complicated expression on his face.

He sighed and said slowly: "Ling Xiao, you don't have to be so polite. I am not helping you out of selflessness. To tell you the truth, I have selfish motives in helping you refine this holy pattern formation diagram."

Ling Xiao was stunned and looked at Jiu Lao with some confusion.

Jiu Lao continued, "I hope you can help me revive a woman, a woman I owe a lot to..."

"Is that the woman sleeping in the ice coffin?" Ling Xiao's voice revealed a bit of curiosity and concern.

Jiu Lao nodded, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, and he slowly said: "Yes, that is A Yao. She is not completely dead, but just fell into an extremely deep sleep, so there is still a possibility of waking up.

Over the years, I have been watched by the Empress, walking on thin ice, and dare not slack off. I endured humiliation and silently endured everything, just to find someone who can inherit my mantle and help me fulfill my wish. "

Ling Xiao listened quietly to Jiu Lao's narration, and an indescribable feeling of emotion welled up in his heart.

He gazed into Jiu Lao's vicissitudes and deep eyes, as if he could see through the dust of time and how the woman named A Yao maintained her deep affection for Jiu Lao in the wind and rain.

He took a deep breath and asked slowly, "Ayao... So her name is Ayao. This name seems to have a different charm. Jiulao, can you tell me Ayao's story in more detail? I really want to know what kind of charming woman I am trying my best to save."

Jiu Lao nodded slightly, his eyes seemed to penetrate the barriers of time and space and return to that distant time.

He spoke slowly, his voice full of nostalgia and gratitude for A Yao: "A Yao...she is a woman as pure as a mountain spring, and as dazzling as the brightest star in the night sky.

She was originally arranged by the Shangguan family to be a maid for an old man like me, but I never regarded her as an ordinary maid. She is smart, considerate, and always gives me warmth and care without my noticing. "

"I have never treated her specially, but Ayao was very kind to me. She not only took care of my daily life, but also often comforted and encouraged me when I was feeling down. Her existence was like a ray of light in my life, illuminating those dark days."

"However, fate played a cruel joke on us. The empress whom I once loved deeply abandoned me for power. She also secretly poisoned me and destroyed my martial arts because she was worried that I would threaten her position. At that time, I was like a walking corpse, and I lost all my hopes and dreams."

"When I was down and out, countless people advised A Yao to leave a useless person like me. After all, she was young, beautiful, and talented, and many people in the Shangguan family were willing to accept her. But A Yao firmly rejected everyone's persuasion. She chose to stay with me. No matter what I became, she would never leave me."

"Later, in order to completely eliminate this hidden danger, the empress actually wanted to kill me. It was A-Yao who stood in front of me without hesitation and used her weak body to block the fatal blow for me. At that moment, I felt an unprecedented shock and emotion. But A-Yao was also seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep from then on."

"The Empress was still not satisfied, and she wanted to attack me again. However, this time, the ancestor of the Shangguan family finally intervened. He angrily rebuked the Empress for her actions and forced her to swear an oath not to attack me again. Although the Empress was unwilling, she did not dare to disobey the ancestor's order."

"From then on, I took A Yao and fled to the southern region to find a way to revive her. Over the past few decades, I have traveled all over the place and experienced untold hardships, and finally found some clues. Although the road ahead is long, I believe that one day I will successfully revive A Yao."

At this point, Jiu Lao's eyes flashed with determination. He took a deep breath, as if to inhale all the sadness and pain into his lungs, and then turn it into motivation to move forward.

"I am ashamed of her, her sacrifice, her deep love. If I cannot wake her up from her deep sleep in this lifetime, I am not qualified to face death at all."

Jiu Lao's voice was trembling a little, and he sighed deeply, as if he wanted to pour out all the pain and guilt in his heart.
