Chapter 22 concludes the discussion on the Dao; we then journey to the primordial world.

In the endless East Sea, there are three fairy islands.

Yunxiao had finished explaining her own Great Dao. She turned her head to look at Chen Qing, a faint smile on her face.

"Senior brother, you flatter me. My understanding of the Great Dao is no match for yours. I would be grateful if you could offer me some guidance."

Upon hearing Yunxiao's words, Chen Qing wore a faint smile on his face. He calmly picked up the jade cup, took a sip of flower tea, then put down the cup and slowly spoke.

"The way of formations, which borrows the power of heaven and earth, enters the Dao through formations, and in the end one's own body becomes the great formation, is a very good idea."

"What Junior Sister just said about the way of formations has given me a great idea for a formation, but it is only in its initial stage and has not yet been perfected."

Upon hearing this, Yunxiao looked at Chen Qing with a delighted expression.

She could tell that Chen Qing knew about her cultivation of array formations, and that he had specially designed a large array to pass on to her.

Yunxiao knew very well that with Chen Qing's cultivation level and understanding of the Great Dao, he must have fully comprehended the Dao of Formations that Yunxiao had just explained.

Thinking of this, Yunxiao no longer hesitated and asked Chen Qing for advice.

"Senior brother, I wonder what kind of great formation this is? Please enlighten me."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing smiled nonchalantly, then looked at Yun Xiao with a serious expression.

"I wonder if Junior Sister has ever heard of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation?"

Upon hearing this, Yunxiao was stunned and immediately shook his head.

"Senior brother, what kind of formation is this Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation? Junior sister has never heard of it before."

"The highest level of formation that Junior Sister has comprehended is the Positive and Negative Innate Five Elements Formation."

Hearing this, Chen Qing nodded and then began to explain the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.

"This Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, within which there are nine bends without a straight line, fully reveals the wonders of creation and unveils the secrets of immortals."

"Once the great formation is activated, rolling yellow sand will blot out the sky and make it impossible to look directly at the sun. The endless yellow sand will annihilate the enemy."

"If it is further aided by a supreme treasure, it cannot be broken unless one's cultivation is a whole realm higher than yours, or it can be broken by a great formation."

"If Junior Sister cultivates to the Quasi-Saint realm, once she sets up this great formation, it will be impossible for anyone but a Saint to break it."

"In this primordial world, as far as I know, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation in our master's hands, the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation of the Witch Clan, and the Zhou Tian Star Formation of the Demon Clan are the three top formations in the primordial world."

"Master's Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation cannot be broken by anyone other than the Four Sages. This was said by Dao Ancestor Hongjun. This shows how powerful the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is."

"The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation of the Witch Clan once stood against the Dao Ancestor, withstanding a single blow from the Dao Ancestor without breaking, which shows how powerful this formation is."

"The demon race's Zhou Tian Xing Chen Grand Array is capable of fighting against the witch race's Twelve Zhou Tian Grand Array, so it must be quite formidable."

"Next is the Grand Master's Innate Yin-Yang Formation."

"This formation is also extraordinary. It was created by our eldest grandmaster. Our eldest grandmaster possesses the Taiji Talisman, which allows him to set up this great formation anytime, anywhere."

"As for the remaining formations, I don't really think much of them."

Upon hearing Chen Qing's words, Yunxiao realized that there were still many top-tier formations in the primordial world, and a sense of longing arose in his heart.

Yunxiao was a cultivator of array formations. He had never seen so many great arrays before, and he couldn't help but marvel at the vastness of the world and the wonder of creation.

"Senior brother, today I have gained some understanding of the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation thanks to your teachings. I will always remember your kindness in imparting the Dao."

"Having received instruction from my senior brother today, I believe that breaking through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm should not be far off. As long as junior sister successfully refines this great formation, she will be able to step into the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing noticed the fluctuating energy around Yunxiao and knew she was close to breaking through, so he smiled.

"Junior sister, you are mistaken. Judging from your aura, you are already at the point where you can break through at any time."

"After this Dao discussion concludes, Junior Sister, please go into seclusion and cultivate diligently. You will surely be able to break through your cultivation level. At that time, I, your brother, will also travel to this primordial world to witness its splendor."

"I have also gained a great deal from this discussion, and it has been a worthwhile trip."

Zhao Gongming was overjoyed to hear that Yunxiao was about to break through his current cultivation level.

"Elder sister, you should go into seclusion and cultivate properly. I must also return to my own seclusion to continue my cultivation."

"I have gained a lot from hearing my senior brother's explanation of the Great Dao. I will definitely break through my current realm when I go back to seclusion."

After saying this, Zhao Gongming immediately looked at Chen Qing.

"Senior brother, junior brother is also going into seclusion."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing nodded, then looked at the four of them, stood up, and bid farewell to Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals.

"In that case, you four siblings should go into seclusion and cultivate diligently. I, your brother, am going to travel to the primordial world."

Yunxiao grinned upon hearing this, immediately stood up, and handed a jade box to Chen Qing.

"Senior brother, what's inside is flower tea. You can take it and enjoy it at your leisure."

"If you finish your tea, you can ask me for more. I still have some flower tea here."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing laughed and immediately accepted it without hesitation.

After all, he had given Yunxiao a lot of pointers, so it wasn't unreasonable for him to drink some flower tea with her.

"Junior Brother Gongming, my three junior sisters, please don't see me off. I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, Chen Qing turned around, took a step, and left the Three Immortal Islands, arriving at the endless East Sea.

Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals were not surprised at all. They knew that their senior brother was powerful, and it was only natural that he had disappeared silently before their eyes.

Seeing that Chen Qing had already left, Zhao Gongming also bid farewell to the three of them, and then transformed into a beam of light, heading towards a fairy island.

Sanxiao watched the two leave, then used her magic to activate the island's protective array.

"Senior Brother Chen Qing is indeed powerful. His understanding of the Great Dao is profound. Even just a few words have greatly benefited us."

Yunxiao sighed and then looked at Qiongxiao and Bixiao.

"Elder sister, the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation that Senior Brother Chen Qing just taught me is extremely profound. I still can't comprehend it."

Upon hearing this, Yunxiao nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, I have not yet comprehended it either, which shows just how profound this Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is."

"There's no rush now. We can study it after our cultivation breaks through. Now let's go to the Yellow River Formation."

After saying this, Yunxiao looked at Qiongxiao and Bixiao.

"I'm going into seclusion to cultivate. You two should also go into seclusion, cultivate diligently, and don't be playful."

After saying this, Yunxiao left.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao exchanged a glance and each headed towards their own cave dwellings to begin their seclusion and digest the insights gained from Tongtian's lecture and this discussion. They expected to have made considerable progress upon emerging from seclusion.

As for Chen Qing, after leaving the Three Immortal Islands, he walked leisurely across the endless East Sea, enjoying the scenery as he headed towards the primordial land.
