Chapter 2572: Tentatively Titled: “Overlord Pillar”

“As long as you’re happy,” Senior Striped Dragon Two replied calmly. It chose not to continue the unproductive argument with Song Shuhang. Back in the Netherworld Realm, it preferred to spend its time admiring the scenery.

The air, the evil energy, and the chaos of the Netherworld all stirred a sense of nostalgia within.

“By the way, White Dragon, what exactly does your human form look like?” Song Shuhang inquired while recalling Senior Striped Dragon Two’s earlier comment about the White Dragon’s appearance being ‘pretty good for a dragon.’

After all, Senior Striped Dragon Two, being the former ruler of the

Netherworld, possessed vast knowledge. Coupled with its draconic nature, its judgment would naturally be more stringent when assessing a fellow dragon like the White Dragon.

Under such circumstances, its assessment of ‘pretty good’ could easily translate to top-tier dragon aesthetics.

“I don’t have a human form,” the White Dragon replied while rolling her eyes.

Song Shuhang paused for a moment before suddenly singing praise.

“Impressive, Slow-Witted Song!’

The White Dragon blinked in confusion.

“We’re here,” Pavilion Master Chu interjected gently. Her hair rotated softly while shielding Song Four and preventing the White Dragon from having a chance to swat him away.

At the same time, the White Dragon suddenly realized something.

“Senior Striped Dragon, how are we going to adapt to the formations beneath this Sand Crystal World?” Song Shuhang, already within the Sand Crystal World, gazed at the demon god pillar and inquired.

“Don’t rush… Remember, you’re now the proxy of the ruler of the Netherworld. You have the authority on your side. Within this Netherworld Realm, you’re an all-powerful plug-and-play interface. First, enter the location of the formation’s eye and activate the management function of the ruler of the Netherworld. Focus on adapting to the underground formations, and the ruler’s authority will gradually handle the rest,” Senior Striped Dragon Two explained.

The term ‘do as you wish’ wasn’t merely lip service.

“Where’s the formation core?” Song Shuhang asked.

“Can’t you see it? You can’t even discern such a simple formation core?” Senior Striped Dragon Two was surprised.

“Simple?” Song Shuhang scrutinized the layers of formations below that resembled a stack of complex mathematical equations without any discernible pattern. It was a dazzling sight—nothing like the scenes portrayed in movies, where the center of a formation plate was the focal point.

“My apologies for the interruption. I’ll take my leave!”

“How did you ascend to the pinnacle of the Seventh Stage, nearly reaching the

Eighth Stage Realm, yet struggle to understand such a basic formation?” Senior Striped Dragon Two’s dragon beard danced in disbelief. “You need some serious review! If you have the time, I’ll make sure to tutor you in formation knowledge.”

“Thank you, Senior. I promise to study diligently,” Song Shuhang replied with enthusiasm. The former ruler of the Netherworld teaching him formations firsthand was an opportunity not to be missed.

Not only did he intend to learn for himself, but he also planned to document the teachings for future disciples or share them in the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

“Listen to my instructions. Take three steps in the seven o’clock direction, then proceed five steps forward—that will lead you to the center of the formation. Let’s proceed,” Senior Striped Dragon Two instructed. “How much do you know about formations?”

“Uh…” Song Shuhang recollected. “I’ve probably finished reading the

Encyclopedia of Basic Five Elements Sealing Techniques and the Basic Illusionary Formation Layouts. At present, I’ve already mastered a simple basic illusion technique that allows me to conceal myself while flying on a sword. As for other formations, although I’ve read through them, I haven’t had the chance to experiment.”

Senior Striped Dragon Two was speechless.

Its dragon whiskers extended, scratching its ears.

Was it hearing things?

Did it just hear two instances of ‘basic’ in a row?

“Basic formations? Basic illusions?” Senior Striped Dragon Two questioned him incredulously.

The White Dragon glanced skyward.

Pavilion Master Chu’s hair also spun awkwardly.

“Yes, that’s correct,” Song Shuhang controlled Song Four while replying in a modest yet assertive tone.

Senior Striped Dragon Two fell silent for a moment.

“l almost forgot that you’ve only been cultivating for eight months. Suddenly, I feel like you’ve stabbed me in the heart,” it remarked, its dragon whiskers coiling around its temples. “My apologies for nearly forgetting your short cultivation time—it feels like you’ve dealt me a blow.”

“Apologies?” Song Shuhang queried.

“I’m not teaching anymore!” Senior Striped Dragon Two declared. “You have limited time; focus on practicing your body-tempering technique and saber technique. Don’t worry about formations for now. First, strive for enlightenment, then take your time to learn through the ages.”

“Senior Striped Dragon, are you that confident in my potential for enlightenment?” Song Shuhang asked. The high expectations surprised him.

Senior Striped Dragon Two was speechless.

“However, Senior, I still have the means to study some ‘formations.’” Song Shuhang gestured toward the demon god pillar in the distance. “It’s not just the Demon Emperor’s ‘demon god pillar’; it’s a versatile demonic technique encompassing attack, defense, illusion, healing, strengthening, sealing, and formations. Once I learn them, I might be able to set up formations with a mere wave of my hand in the future.”

Furthermore, Song Shuhang had another plan he hadn’t mentioned. Even if he couldn’t control the demon god pillar, he had 65 life-bound magical treasure spirits waiting to awaken.

If all 65 Artifact Spirits could be nurtured like the Artifact Spirit Fairy, he could choose one to specialize in array formations. He didn’t believe it wouldn’t be effective!

“The Demon God Pillar is a demonic cultivation technique which doesn’t suit you. Don’t dwell on it too much,” Senior Striped Dragon Two advised. “However, if you manage to obtain information about the creator of the demon god pillar cultivation technique and the idea behind its creation, I could modify it for you.”

As Song Shuhang and Senior Striped Dragon Two conversed, the cultivation chat Al Squirrel sent an urgent message: “[Overlord Administrator, you have an urgent new message. Please check it.]”

It was the first time the urgent new message notification had been activated.

Song Shuhang was slightly taken aback. His consciousness entered the ‘cultivation chat,’ and he opened the new message.

It was a message from Madam Long Luo with an attachment.

Text:

[Notice: I have stayed up all night to complete the transformation of the

Demon God Pillar Divine Power. It is temporarily named the Overlord God Pillar. If you’re not satisfied with the name, you can change it yourself. The attachment contains the simplified cultivation method of the “Overlord God

Pillar No. 1” and “Overlord God Pillar No. 2.” Please download it and take a good look.]

[P.S. 1: The Demon God’s Inherited Demon God Pillar will be left with me for the time being. It will be used to develop the Overlord God Pillar No. 3 and other series. However, I’ve been very busy recently, so the update of this series of cultivation techniques will take time. Don’t rush me.]

[P.S. 2: Please abide by the agreement after cultivating the “Overlord God Pillar No. 1” and show the divine power of the “Overlord God Pillar” in front of the Demon Emperor. Please try your best to use vulgar words to hurt him psychologically..]
