Chapter 12536

Fang Taichu then added, "However, we shouldn't rush things. Let's wait a couple of days before making a decision."

He's an expert at fishing, especially big fish; his control over the timing and intensity is so good that he doesn't need any pointers from others.

Little did he know that Lin Yi, this insignificant little fish in his eyes, had already sensed something was amiss the moment he left his Cloud Peak Manor.

Under the introspective gaze of the world's will, Lin Yi could not escape the perception of even the slightest changes within his body.

Unbeknownst to them, a highly sophisticated magic array quietly emerged from the deepest recesses of their internal organs.

If you rely solely on your divine sense, you won't be able to perceive it at all.

"Using the delicacies of the Great Dao as the foundation of the formation, that's quite an idea."

Given Lin Yi's mastery of formations, now that he has already detected it, completely deconstructing it will only take a few minutes.

In the blink of an eye, Fang Taichu's entire scheme had been completely dismantled by him.

Lin Yi couldn't help but chuckle after reading it: "He really thought he was being so generous in treating me to the delicacies of the Great Dao. Turns out I'm the one he wants to eat. For every bit of him I eat, I have to give him twenty or even two hundred points in return."

The core purpose of this formation is to quietly absorb the host's Dharma power and transfer it to Fang Taichu remotely.

Lin Yi speculated that Fang Taichu should have a corresponding array within his body to receive the power of the Dharma body.

Essentially, it's about creating a channel.

Once the passage is completed, just as water flows downhill, the power of the Dharma will naturally flow to Fang Taichu, this low-lying area.

Its most ingenious aspect is that not only is the formation difficult to detect, but after the power of the Dharma Image is lost, it will also produce an illusion of expansion.

From the victim's perspective, the power of the Dharma has not been lost, but rather is growing rapidly.

Logically, this is also reasonable.

After all, having just eaten so many delicacies from the Great Dao, it's only natural that it would have this effect.

No matter how clever or ingenious the design, once it's seen through, it's ultimately just that.

With Lin Yi's mastery of formations, countering him would be a matter of a single thought.

However, just as he was about to solve the problem, he suddenly discovered a fleeting hidden door.

"A hidden, mobile door?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but look strange: "That guy even left himself something like this?"

Formations are like programs; every complete program has backdoors, and formations are no exception.

To prevent others from cracking it, such backdoors are often designed to be very secretive.

Normally, no matter how well it's designed to be hidden, the location of the back door must be fixed. Creating a movable hidden door is just asking for trouble.

Unless, of course, this hidden, flowing door wasn't set up by Fang Taichu himself.

Lin Yi once again released the world's will and restarted the all-round review, finally capturing the flowing secret door again.

And on this, he actually sensed a familiar transcendent aura.

"Emperor Saint?"

Lin Yi's eyelids twitched.

He had just exchanged blows with Emperor Saint from a distance, so he was naturally certain that he wouldn't mistake this aura.

"So, behind Fang Taichu is Emperor Sheng?"

This had never been mentioned in any of the intelligence information gathered before.

But upon closer reflection, it's not surprising at all.

Since Fang Taichu is portrayed as someone with wide social connections, he would inevitably have to deal with the Five Saints of the aristocratic families in Tianjun, especially the Emperor Saint, who is the leader of the Five Saints.

Without the Emperor's tacit approval, anyone else who made such high-profile connections with powerful figures in Tianjun would probably be long gone.

Lin Yi immediately realized what was happening and a playful expression appeared on his face.

"Did the Emperor Saint secretly set up a hidden, mobile door within Fang Taichu's meticulously constructed array?"

Things suddenly got interesting.

When Fang Taichu suddenly invited him to a banquet, Lin Yi initially thought that the purpose was to invite Gan Niannian, since they were both experts in the culinary arts of the Great Dao.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the target was actually himself.

Looking at it now, it seems that the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; there was actually an Emperor Saint hiding behind them.

Lin Yi originally did not intend to waste time on Fang Taichu.

When dealing with this kind of person, playing along is a bad strategy; a direct and swift approach is the best choice.

However, since Emperor Sheng is involved, we have no choice but to deal with him properly.

From another perspective, isn't this a good opportunity to test Emperor Sheng?
"Now that the stage has been set up, let me give you a little treat first."

Lin Yi immediately stopped trying to control himself and allowed the formation within his body to absorb a portion of his Dharma power.

With the strength of his pseudo-three-zhang Dharma form, even if he were to fully open it, even if it took ten days or half a month, it would be difficult for the other party to absorb even a fraction of his power.

In this process, Lin Yi had enough time to do a lot of things.

"Is this the strength of a six-zhang (approximately 33 meters) Dharma form?"

Fang Taichu on the other side was both surprised and delighted.

What appeared to Lin Yi as a trickle of water was seen by Fang Taichu as a massive flood.

Fortunately, he had already experimented on other experts in Tianjun thousands of times before, and had a set of insights into absorbing the power of the Dharma Image.

Otherwise, just this one blow would have destroyed the receiving array within his body!
Fang Taichu became increasingly alarmed as he looked at the document.

"Even a five-zhang-tall Dharma Form wouldn't possess such ferocity, would it?"

This was a truly unexpected and delightful surprise for him.

The carefully prepared meal was unfortunately used on Lin Yi, a master of the six-zhang Dharma form. In his eyes, it was like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, a complete waste of talent.

Fang Taichu had already decided that this was a useless investment, and had even mentally prepared himself to give up.

Who would have thought something like this would happen so suddenly?
But no matter what, it was still a pleasant surprise.

He meticulously set up these formations precisely to steal the power of the Dharma Body; the more he stole, the happier he would be.

The two sisters beside her reminded her, "Something's definitely up to no good, mistress. Shouldn't we check it out?"

Fang Taichu waved his hand: "Although this person is nominally only a six-zhang Dharma form, as the front figure pushed out by that mysterious expert, ordinary experts naturally cannot compare with him. It is normal that his strength exceeds the standard."

The two sisters exchanged a glance and reminded each other again, "This is a very important matter. It would be best if you had someone check it carefully, so that no one can take advantage of it."

"Caution is the boat."

After some reminders, Fang Taichu finally changed his mind.

"You two are right. The person we're targeting this time is indeed no ordinary person, so it's only right to be careful."

Even so, Fang Taichu immediately faced another dilemma.

Since this target is a master of the Four-Zhang Dharma Aspect, if he were looking for someone, he wouldn't be looking for someone below the Four-Zhang Dharma Aspect.

Furthermore, these formations of his are completely clandestine; if he needs help, he must seek assistance from his own people.

This leaves him with very few options.

Only that one person meets the criteria.

Fang Taichu immediately and quietly arrived at a secret place.

The secret realm itself may seem ordinary at first glance, but the several auras hidden around it are more terrifying than the last. Even a four-zhang Dharma Aspect expert would be terrified if he came to such a place.
