Chapter 48
Chapter 48- Part 1
Below the forbidden horizon were sealed beasts . Those beasts ought to have human flesh as their favourite food . She had to leave quickly from this pile of corpses .
It felt like there were ten suns which could not be seen… were hanging above her head . The strong lighting caused Su TingYun to be unable to open her eyes . She was obviously under the shade of a large tree, but she could not feel any sort of coolness, it was like the leaves were transparent .
The surrounding temperature started to rise, and the corpses appeared to be decomposing at a speed visible to the naked eye . An intense rotting smell could be smelt in the air .
Although Su TingYun was scared witless, she still paid attention to Li XinMei’s body, she was afraid that her body did not house a primordial spirit and problems would arise . It was at this moment she regretted not buying a high grade spatial bag, as it could allow living beings to be placed in it .
Her current spatial treasure was a low leveled spatial bag which can only house non-living beings, and the size is about one square, she normally just put some medicinal pill in them .
She heard that in a high grade spatial treasure, there was a large space and there were mountains and rivers which could support life .
She carried Li XinMei and made markings for directions . Unexpectedly, she ended up in her original location . But this time, she was shocked to discover that the many corpses had turned into bones .
She did not see any beast tracks, and the corpses were eaten till bones remained . Su TingYun at this moment was severely dehydrated under the scorching sun, her whole body was covered in sweat, sweat could even be extracted by pinching her clothes . On the contrary, Li XinMei’s body was still clean and cool as Su TingYun had sent her remaining spiritual energy into her body .
Could it be that there was a formation here that was causing her to go round and round like a headless fly?
Su TingYun did not understand how to break formations, she turned her head to look at Li XinMei who was on her back, and carefully placed her down, after that she possessed Li XinMei’s body .
Every time she possesses someone she would use up some of her mental energy . After Su TingYun entered the body, she felt exhausted . However, she did not dare sleep, instead she peeled her eyelids to take a look .
Taking a peak, the sunlight was too strong . Tears kept pouring out of her eyes, her long eyelashes stuck together because of the moisture .
Xiao Mei had inherited part of the universal formation eye, she could see the loopholes of the formation using that pair of eyes . But how does it activate?
Su TingYun was both thinking and trying to get it to work, she circulated Xiao Mei’s spiritual energy into her eyes . At that moment, her eyes emitted a gold brilliance . When she opened her again, Su TingYun found out that her surroundings had changed drastically .
The surroundings were not the dazzling and glaring lights, the scorching heat had also disappeared . The surroundings still retained the swaying trees, which had a cooling sensation .
Those corpses were not really a heap of bones, it was almost the same as when it fell from the sky . It was just that there were dark red bugs crawling up and down the corpses, which made it more disgusting .
Does that mean that she was in an illusionary land, and when using Xiao Mei’s universal formation eye could she see the actual appearance of the forbidden horizon?
Su TingYun used a vine to tie up her body to her back, as a result she nearly failed to carry it up . Luckily Xiao Mei was a cultivator . Her body was not considered bad, otherwise she really would have a hard time .
With the help of the universal formation eye, Su TingYun did not end up at the starting place again, but she did not dare to walk recklessly . She wished to find a slightly more safe place to rest . After half an hour, she finally heard the soft sounds of water .
What lay ahead was a small river, it was so clear that you could see the bottom . The river surface was rich in spiritual energy, you could even see dense gases being emitted . In the river were fishes that were swimming around, they occasionally jumped out of the water, their silver bodies were extremely dazzling, it had the same brightness as the illusionary land which caused one’s eyes to be unable to open due to the brightness .
Su TingYun was very thirsty and tired .
She knew very well that what laid beneath the forbidden horizon was dangerous, the chances of a water beast appearing is very high, but at this moment, it was like she was enticed by the water, her body walked forward by impulse .
Just taking a few steps, her vision blacked out, and her body fell heavily onto the ground . Her consciousness became exceedingly weak . It seemed like an extremely strong rejective force had squeezed her out of Li XinMei’s body .
When Su TingYun regained consciousness, she had returned to her original body . What laid in front of her was a stream of water . The surface of the stream of water was pitch black and had black algae that was floating at the surface . In a blink of an eye, it resembled a human hair .
What in the world was that formation, even Xiao Mei’s universal formation eyes were deceived?
Also, why was she rejected from the body, could it be that there was a time limit for possessing someone?
What exactly is the forbidden horizon? What does she need to do in order to survive!
Su TingYun was feeling extremely perplexed, she did not know where the exit was, but could not give up, she could only forge forward to find a temporary shelter that was safe .
When Su TingYun was carrying Xiao Mei’s fleshy body, she heard a si si si sound . She became incredibly nervous . Although she tried to extend her consciousness into the pond, but she could not explore its surroundings . She could only rely on her eyes and ears; sight and sound .

‘Si si si……’
Is that a venomous snake? Where is it?
Su TingYun restricted her breathing and realised that the sound was coming from beneath her feet . She frighteningly lowered her head . The outcome was, next to her foot was an orchid tongue grass! The orchid tongue grass was about half a chi high, its leaves were comparatively deeper in colour . Its colour differed from the one she was rearing at home .
She was not sure if the orchid tongue grass by this pond was still alive

Chapter 48- Part 2
Of the two leaves of the orchid tongue grass, one was opened, and the other was closed . The si si si sound had come from it .
Because she was thinking of the huge orchid tongue grass at home, Su TingYun subconsciously squatted down and extended her hand to touch the orchid tongue grass once, as a result, it emitted a human voice: ‘that old and young one is a little strange . ’
‘The little one seems to have inherited my universal formation eyes . ’
‘You are incorrect, the little one has lost her soul . ’
‘How strange! How strange!, let me take another look . ’

Su TingYun: ‘……’
Orchid tongue grass are not able to talk, but it knew how to replicate human speech . The voice was really soft and weak, it sounded hoarse, making it hard to identify the gender of the speaker . It was like it was talking to itself; the voice was replicated perfectly by the orchid tongue grass, even to its tone and mannerisms .
In other words, she was amidst someone’s formation, and was being observed by them?
Su TingYun carefully recalled it said, after that her eyes opened wide, her state of mind shook .
The little one seemed to have inherited my universal formation eyes!
Xiao Mei oftenly shared matters of the formation hall with her, the person she adored most was none other than ancestor E ChangGuang who left behind the formation hall .
In the early days, E ChangGuang could produce clouds with turn of his hands and rain with the other*, his formation skills have reached great heights, anything between heaven and earth, it could all be transformed by him into his formation . As for the universal eyes being unable to see past it, it all made sense now .
*Just means he is super OP
Three thousand years ago, E ChangGuang disappeared after finishing the formation . Many people thought he had perished when challenging the heavenly tribulation, little did they know that he was still within Wu Liang sect, staying in the forbidden horizon .
Su TingYun digested this info with much difficulty . After a short while, she spoke: Senior, we have accidentally intruded this place and offended you . I hope senior could show us the way out . ’
The surroundings were deathly silent .
The black river water suddenly produced gu gu bubbling sounds, it was like some ghostly being wanted to climb out of it . Su TingYun clenched her right hand tightly, her palms felt hot, the heavenly flame in her had healed a bit . She also became aware that the flame she had was different, hence lets use this flame as a means of offence . If anything were to crawl out of that black river, she would use her heavenly flame to incinerate it!
Just when she was on high alert, the orchid tongue grass produced a sigh .
‘I have been stuck here for three thousand years, how could i give you directions?’

Su TingYun’s entire body froze . Even someone who was mentioned in legends was stuck here for three thousand years! Her heart felt cold . If that was true, she had zero confidence of walking out of the forbidden horizon .
‘Fu Xi eight trigrams, according to Kun at least Yang, search for Yin arrives the supreme . ’ The orchid tongue grass who copied E ChangGuang’s voice said .
Question marks appeared in Su TingYun’s head . She did not understand what it meant .
‘Walk forward three steps and turn left . Then search for a shady place, after that come back here again . ’ When he was speaking he should be panting as the orchid tongue grass also repeated panting noises .
Right now, Su TingYun could not attend to anything else . This place was gloomy and frightening, she only had limited strength, and was also carrying a person on her back . She also did not know what sort of monster might pop out of the black river . Weighing her options, she trusted E ChangGuang more, in whichever case; was human .
E ChangGuang can turn heaven and earth into his formation . If he wanted to kill her, he did not have to waste so much of his energy, and also did not require such bizarre formations to observe her .
Su TingYun carried Li XinMei and followed E ChangGuang’s directions for a few steps . As a result, she realised that one bright and one dark area had appeared in front of her . Below the tree that reached high into the sky, a shady spot cast by the tree appeared . In addition, the other side had light trickling down, forming a piece of shining region .
Su TingYun calmed down her heart and directly stepped into the shadow . When both feet stepped into the shadow caved into the ground, the surroundings fluctuated, her body seemed to be in a freefall . Her ears could only hear the sounds hu hu . Su TingYun used both hands to grab on to Li XinMei and hold her firmly, afraid that she would suddenly be thrown off .
The freefall lasted for about a quarter of an hour . When she finally landed on the ground, Su TingYun could not help but cry out in alarm .
Soon after, a hand climbed up her shoulders and covered her mouth .
That hand was ice cold, it completely lacked warmth, just like a rock . Which made goosebumps form layer after layer .
Su TingYun heard a hissing sound ring out .
‘Suuhh, there is a beast beside you’ the voice sounded gloomy and frightening, the cold air that came from her mouth seemed to burrow into her neck, which caused Su TingYun’s hairs to stand on end, heart to beat faster and feel frightened and scared .
She turned her head bit by bit, she saw an extremely bright and colourful face, she had a beauty that reached perfection, naturally good looks, flesh of ice and bones of jade, and fine hair like a waterfall .
The ancestor of the formation hall, E ChangGuang, was actually a woman!
