Not long after Qin Yi, Luo Duxuan, and Luo Yongnian walked out of the Kongtong Sect, they heard a series of fighting sounds erupt from within the sect.
Luo Duxuan and Luo Yongnian instinctively stopped and turned back to look at the Kongtong Sect.
However, after just a glance and a complex expression, they said nothing and turned to continue following Qin Yi.
Later, the three drove back to Heilong City.
"Mr. Qin, did you find the materials for the formation on Mount Tian? Are we returning to Haicheng next?"
On the way, Luo Yongnian asked while driving.
Qin Yi replied truthfully, "My luck was good, I found it!"
Luo Duxuan's eyes lit up and he said, "Mr. Qin, you found it???"
"Mhm, I found one piece!"
Qin Yi had no intention of hiding it and took out the bead from his pocket for them to see.
Immediately, Luo Duxuan took the bead in his hand and examined it curiously.
However, he was not a formation master, so he couldn't make out anything. He soon returned the bead to Qin Yi.
A moment later, after some hesitation, Luo Duxuan asked, "Mr. Qin, are you looking for formation materials for someone else?"
"No, I'm looking for them for myself!"
Luo Duxuan was stunned and said, "Only formation masters can use formation materials to set up formations. Otherwise, even if others have them, they are useless. Mr. Qin, you are looking for formation materials..."
"I'm looking for them to set up formations!" Qin Yi stated.
"What! Mr. Qin, are you also a formation master???" Luo Duxuan was completely shocked.
Luo Yongnian was also startled, his grip on the steering wheel tightening, causing the car to nearly swerve off the road.
Sensing their emotions, Qin Yi found it somewhat amusing and said, "I am a formation master, is that so surprising?"
"Of course!"
Luo Duxuan blurted out.
Formation masters were extremely rare existences.
If martial artists in Shenzhou were one in ten thousand, meaning only one out of ten thousand people was a martial artist, then formation masters were one in a hundred or even a thousand in the martial arts world.
In other words, it was possible for only one formation master to emerge from a hundred or a thousand martial artists.
This showed how difficult it was to become a formation master.
Therefore, how could Luo Duxuan and Luo Yongnian not be surprised when they heard Qin Yi say he was a formation master?
However, Luo Duxuan was still half-believing and half-doubting Qin Yi, not fully convinced.
In his heart, Qin Yi's strength at such a young age was already remarkable. If he were also a formation master, it would be too terrifying!
So, Luo Duxuan tentatively asked, "Mr. Qin, since you are a formation master, after we return, can you help our Tiexian Boxing Gym set up a few formations?"
"No problem!"
Qin Yi readily agreed, "But you'll have to provide the formation materials yourselves. I don't have any spare formation materials!"
He had specifically traveled to Mount Tian this time and searched for several hours on the mountain to find one piece of formation material. He needed to keep it for his own use and couldn't give it to others.
Seeing his unhesitating agreement and his serious expression, Luo Duxuan's suspicion decreased by two points.
He quickly said, "That's natural, that's natural..."
Then, Qin Yi thought of something and asked, "By the way, Master Luo, besides Mount Tian, do you know of any other places that might have formation materials?"
To be honest, Qin Yi was not satisfied with finding only one piece of formation material on Mount Tian.
One piece of formation material was not enough for him to use.
Luo Duxuan showed a difficult expression. Since he was not a formation master and had almost no contact with formation masters before, he knew very little about formation materials.
At this moment, Luo Yongnian, who was driving, suddenly thought of something and said, "I know a place where there are definitely formation materials, and quite a lot of them!"
"Where?"
"What place?"
Qin Yi and Luo Duxuan both turned to look at him and asked.
"Order Hall!"
Luo Yongnian said, "The Order Hall is an official martial arts organization with official support. They have all sorts of cultivation resources, and they have them in abundance!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Duxuan slapped his thigh with his right hand and exclaimed, "That's right, how could I have forgotten the Order Hall!"
He then said to Qin Yi, "Mr. Qin, as far as I know, you have no sect and belong to no faction. If you want formation materials, I believe they are very likely to give them to you if you discuss it with the Order Hall!"
"Mhm."
Luo Yongnian nodded heavily in agreement, "And Mr. Qin, you are so young yet possess such strength, the Order Hall must admire you greatly. They might even try to recruit you!"
"If you truly join the Order Hall, they will provide you with not only formation materials but any cultivation resources you desire!"
Qin Yi couldn't help but smile as he listened.
What the two did not know was that people from the Order Hall had already tried to recruit him, but he had refused!
However, their words did give him a new perspective. He had refused to join the Order Hall before simply because he didn't want to be constrained and found it troublesome!
Now, he was beginning to realize that if he wanted to continue cultivating in the future, he would need not only formation materials but also a vast amount of cultivation resources. It would be too difficult to obtain these resources on his own!
If the Order Hall could truly provide him with cultivation resources, then he might consider joining them!
"Thank you for the reminder. I will try to contact the Order Hall later," Qin Yi said gratefully.
"Mr. Qin, you are too kind. We didn't do much, just said a few words!" Luo Duxuan replied.
Later, the three returned to Heilong City. As the sky gradually darkened, it was already evening.
Since the three hadn't eaten all day, they found a restaurant to eat.
Qin Yi and Luo Duxuan were fine. Neither of them was an ordinary person, and not eating for a day had no impact. However, Luo Yongnian was different.
After dinner, Qin Yi planned to return to Haicheng directly, but before he could speak, Luo Duxuan spoke first, suggesting they stay a night in Heilong City and return tomorrow.
Qin Yi could tell that Luo Duxuan wanted to stay in Heilong City for a night because he wanted to know the situation with the Kongtong Sect.
After all, he had some acquaintance with Wei He!
For this reason, Qin Yi said nothing more and found a hotel in Heilong City with the two of them to stay.
Upon entering the hotel room, Qin Yi tidied himself up, lay on the bed, and took out his phone to call Fang Zhengao.
For the sake of cultivation resources, Qin Yi was now interested in joining the Order Hall!
The call was quickly connected, and Fang Zhengao's surprised voice came through the receiver.
"Qin Yi! Why are you suddenly calling me???"
