An Immortal Master Kneels Before Village Chief Bu – The Art of Formations

Village Chief Bu was the embodiment of the old adage, “Nothing comes free in life.” Despite possessing a body with the five elements perfectly balanced, Village Chief Bu’s meridians were connected no differently to an ordinary human’s. Consequently, his body would not be able to withstand spiritual energy.

“That’s so odd,” commented Xiaoshuai.

“What?” drawled Village Chief Bu. “I thought I could become an immortal master since I could utilise such a powerful skill. I like the exhilaration that comes with zapping people now.”

“It’s pretty nice being an ordinary immortal,” Mu Yu comforted.

The reason Reverend Nilei directed Mu Yu to Village Chief Bu was because Mu Yu was a formation caster. Therefore, Mu Yu would know how to deal with Feng Haochen’s formation unlike himself.

“Hahaha, it is what it is. My favourite hobby is still telling kids about Mu Yu’s epic. Besides, I can now b-, motivate the kids with the story of hundreds of cultivators kneeling to me.”

Unable to stand the disappointment in Village Chief Bu’s eyes, Mu Yu stated, “If you want to become an immortal master, give me some time. I will work something out.”

“I can become an immortal master?!”

Mu Yu locked qi from his sword into a jade piece using a formation and then spent the next hour modifying both the formation’s flaws and the jade piece. Just as Reverend Nilei and his shifu bestowed Village Chief Bu with abilities, Mu Yu could replicate their idea using formations.

“Okay, you can have this jade piece. Press down on this spot, and you will find yourself a pleasant surprise.”

Village Chief Bu pressed the spot after dithering, shooting out an attack replicating Mu Yu’s thirty-metre-long qi slash that could tear apart the banyan tree’s branch. As long as his opponent was not above Spirit Severing Realm, Village Chief Bu had a chance against them in a surprise attack situation.

“You must be kidding me!”

Mu Yu patted the banyan tree to regrow the severed branch. “Don’t worry, Gramps. Though you can’t cultivate, I can equip you with an army’s armoury.”

“I-it can only be used once, right?” Village Chief Bu squeezed the jade piece again, firing a second jet of qi, illuminating his face with excitement. “It can be used multiple times?”

“By my estimates, you should be able to fire roughly ten shots. Once you’ve used them up, they will have a cool down period. I will try to reduce the cool down window to six hours with some modifications to the formation.”

“Ooh, are there any other cool techniques?”

“If you can imagine it, I can make it a reality.”

“Mm… invisibility?”

“Easy.”

“The ability to switch appearances? I heard you have seventy-two different appearances.”

“I could even do a thousand.”

“Yes! How about going through walls?”

“It’s… not impossible, but it’s not exactly going through. You can teleport to the other side.”

“Teleportation? Huhuhu, let’s see… Is there anything to help me run fast?”

“Windspeed Formation. I reckon you could outrun even Spirit Severing Realm cultivators with it…” Mu Yu had to elaborate on the cultivation system so that Village Chief Bu could follow.

“So…. Those immortal masters who used to visit the village were only Foundation Establishment Realm? That’s level two, yeah? What realm are you at now?”

“Thanks to you, I have ascended to Ascension Realm; level eight in your terms.”

“Which realms can I beat with the formation you just gave me?”

“You should be able to breeze through Spirit Severing Realm (level six), but it’ll be a little tough to beat a Body Synthesis Realm cultivator – level seven in your terms. If you feel you need more, I can spend some more time coming up with formations to deal with Body Synthesis Realm cultivators.”

“Nah, this is plenty. If the strongest cultivators at Moyun Mountains are only Primordial Infant Realm, I’m basically the overlord here, hahaha.”

“You’re not just the overlord in the countryside. You’re the world saviour, Old Conartist. You’re the one person who we can’t let die,” added Xiaoshuai.

“Oh yeah, I forgot, hahaha.”

Village Chief Bu made sound effects with his mouth as he fired another shot from the jade piece.
