Four security guards got out of the car.
They took out more than a dozen large suitcases into Chen Yu’s shop, one after another.
After these people left, Chen Yu impatiently opened the suitcases.
There were all kinds of artifacts inside, even foreign ones.
“Hahaha, the opportunity has come.”
Chen Yu stopped in front of a leather suitcase.
Immediately after, Chen Yu took out a small, palm-sized bronze cauldron from inside.
There were over a dozen suitcases and over a hundred artifacts, all fake.
Only this small cauldron was unique.
The small cauldron was covered in dense inscriptions, as was its interior.
He discovered that this small cauldron was a genuine spiritual artifact through the divination of the Heaven Secrets Strategy.
What was a spiritual artifact?
An artifact that possessed spiritual energy.
As for the inscriptions on its body, they were the foundation of countless array formations.
It was a cauldron used by an ancient cultivator.
As for the materials used to forge this item, they had the exact same origin as the Nine Tripod Cauldron that belonged to Yu the Great.
This was the opportunity for which Chen Yu had been waiting for a long time.
People wait for opportunities, and opportunities also wait for people.
Chen Yu smiled faintly, knowing this item was fated for him.
During Wang Dequan’s treatment, he was restricted by heavenly secrets that could not be named.
Chen Yu didn’t finish his sentence, which was supposed to explain why the bronze statue stopped bestowing fortune on Wang Dequan.
It was because of this cauldron.
The spiritual energy inside this cauldron restrained the evil energy of Wutong Shen.
It was also because of this item that Wang Dequan had a chance to regain some of his humanity.
It allowed him to wake up briefly, giving him a chance to release himself from the grasp of evil.
After spending some time, Chen Yu familiarized himself with the contents of the cauldron’s inscriptions.
He took out his phone and started placing some orders.
The content of the array formation on the cauldron was extensive and profound.
Killing Array, Defense Array, Life Array, Bewildering Array, Illusion Array…
There were many more.
Chen Yu was about to break through into the Foundation Stage of cultivation, so he needed an array that could infinitely increase the chances of success.
The Heavenly Cycle Spirit Gathering Formation.
The materials needed to set up this array could be bought online, and only a few core materials had to be obtained by Chen Yu himself.
Naturally, divination could be used to locate them.
After dealing with the suitcases of fake artifacts, Chen Yu began divining the locations of the items he needed.
After confirming there was no mistake, he called Zhang Jianshe and Wang Dequan.
One of them was a university principal, and the other was one of the top ten wealthiest people in their city.
They had a strong network and were also believers in his methods, so they were most suitable for running these errands.
Chen Yu was relieved after receiving assurance from the two of them.
He sat on his chair and leisurely thought about his breakthrough, which was in a few days.
Breaking through to the Foundation Stage in an era where spiritual energy was abundant was nothing special; it was a dime a dozen.
However…
That was then, different from now.
Spiritual energy was thin in this era.
Ignoring cultivators of the Foundation Stage, were there even a hundred Aura Refinement Stage cultivators on this planet?
It was a big question mark.
Chen Yu just received a massive amount of merit and luck, all of which came from Wang Dequan.
He instructed Wang Dequan to throw away the statue and taught him how to repair the damage he caused by enacting good deeds.
This was the same as saving someone from the sea of bitterness and helping someone accumulate good virtue.
Chen Yu also helped Wang Dequan recover his lost humanity, which garnered him a ton of merit.
With so much merit and luck combined, the spiritual energy in his body was sufficient to advance to the Foundation Stage.
A few days later, Wang Dequan and Zhang Jianshe each delivered the materials Chen Yu needed.
These materials were used as the array’s cores and gates.
The Heavenly Cycle Spirit Gathering Formation was completed.
It sounded like it took a lot of effort, but the completed formation was only two meters in length and width.
Sitting cross-legged on the array core, Chen Yu circulated his energy inside his body.
He emptied his mind, gathering his spiritual energy in his body’s spiritual abode.
Human Flower, Earth Flower, and Heavenly Flower—the gathering of three flowers.
Then, it was time to gather his energy to face the origin.
The spiritual energy formed by merit and luck was firmly confined within the Heavenly Cycle Spirit Gathering Formation.
“Rumble…”
A strange scene appeared in Hangzhou City.
A large number of thunderclouds gathered in the sky above River Street in a short period of time, while the other areas were cloudless.
Muffled sounds came from the clouds.
It was as if there was going to be a rainstorm.
The tourists who came and went quickened their pace, and no one noticed what these thunderclouds really represented.
“Crack!”
It was too late to warn them.
Lightning flashed in the sky, and the sound of thunder rang endlessly.
“Purple lightning!”
At the top of Qinglong Mountain on the outskirts of Hangzhou City, a man stood on top of a gigantic tree.
He looked shocked, and he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
According to the legends, once purple lightning appeared, it meant that a mighty figure had appeared.
On River Street, many tourists raised their heads and looked at the strange scene in the sky.
It was as if purple lightning was flashing in the air in the shape of a long dragon coiling around.
However, not a single drop of rain fell.
Many people took out their phones and took pictures of the scene above their heads.
The video of many purple lightning bolts appearing on River Street spread like the wind on the Internet.
“Holy shit! A fellow Daoist is transcending the tribulation!”
“This old man is just transcending the tribulation. Why are you juniors panicking?”
“Thunderlord, help me kill my love rival.”
“What tribulation? Thor is clearly here for a vacation.”
“Could it be that some scumbag swore on some oath and got his retribution?”
Huh, pretty specific scenario.”
“The old man claiming he’s transcending tribulation, transfer me 50 bucks to show me your strength.”
All kinds of comments pushed this video to the top of trending searches.
Soon, an expert came out for an explanation, suggesting that netizens shouldn’t spread rumors.
They shouldn’t confuse natural phenomena with feudal superstitions.
Ignoring the various opinions outside, Chen Yu opened his eyes a day later.
His breakthrough was successful.
The Heavenly Cycle Spirit Gathering Array firmly locked in his spiritual energy, and not a single trace of it leaked out.
Looking at his hands, Chen Yu couldn’t help but feel dazed.
Not long ago, this was a pair of hardworking hands.
Now, these hands had become the hands of the storm.
In the literal sense, the hands of the storm.
“I’ve already tried keeping a low profile, but I didn’t expect it to still cause such a huge commotion.”
Just as Chen Yu opened the door, he was startled by the crowd before him.
River Street, which was already congested during the day, was packed like a temple fair on New Year’s Eve.
The streets were full of people, and 90% of them were holding their phones.
There was no need to guess; they were either streamers or netizens who came to find something new.
“I’m going to run away.”
Chen Yu immediately closed the door.
If he went out at this time, he would definitely be trampled to death.
“Right, 1 haven’t played with my online patients for a few days.”
After giving the matter some thought, Chen Yu returned to his desk and turned on his computer.
“Woah, our missing streamer is back!”
It must be because God knows it’s my birthday today and gave me a birthday present.”
“One day apart feels like three years. Dr. Chen, we haven’t seen each other for
18 years.”
Dr. Chen, did you just remember your account and password?”
Chen Yu’s livestream had just begun, and the number of viewers in his livestream immediately jumped to 150,000.
These people did not rush in; instead, over 100,000 netizens were waiting on his channel every day.
Correspondingly, the number of viewers on other streamers’ channels fell rapidly..
