The formation was complete.
Within Crimson Rainbow Sect, the spiritual energy rose to a terrifying level.
Those disciples did not hesitate at all, and entered a state of cultivation.
At this time, they also understood clearly that all of this was because of Su Tong's help, so they needed to cultivate hard.
"Ten times the spiritual energy?"
In Su Tong's residence, his brows furrowed slightly at this moment.
This formation was very successful.
After all, in the past half month, he had forcibly raised his spiritual power from first grade to third grade.
It increased the odds of setting up the Hidden Spirit formation.
Before setting it up, Su Tong already had ninety percent confidence that he could set it up successfully.
So there was not much pressure.
But just as the formation was completed,
Su Tong felt that the surrounding spiritual energy was already almost as abundant as Hidden Spirit Island.
Moreover, this formation covered the entire Crimson Rainbow Sect.
But at this moment, Su Tong still felt that there were some strange things.
"Elder Su Tong!"
Just as Su Tong was lost in thought, a voice came in.
It was the voice of the grand elder.
Su Tong went out and saw Luo Zi Yin and the grand elder and others were at the door.
"Sect master, elders!"
Su Tong cupped his fists in greeting.
"Elder Su Tong worked hard for this formation!"
At this time, Luo Zi Yin also bowed to Su Tong.
This represented the gratitude of the entire Crimson Rainbow Sect to Su Tong.
After all, the meaning represented by this one formation was absolutely not as simple as it seemed now.
Just look at the strength of Hidden Spirit Sect, and it would be clear.
How important this Hidden Spirit formation was to the entire sect.
"Sect master is too kind. If it weren't for you letting Su Tong go to Hidden Spirit Island in the first place, I wouldn't have gotten this formation either!"
Su Tong politely declined.
Then after chatting with them for a while, they all left Su Tong's residence.
After all, several of the elders were itching to try.
Not many people could go to Hidden Spirit Island, and many elders here had never experienced the effect of cultivating one day being equal to ten days.
So they did not stay long.
After sending them away, Su Tong fell into contemplation again.
"If Hidden Spirit Sect's foundation was only one divine-grade cultivation technique, one divine-grade spirit technique, plus a Hidden Spirit formation, it would be impossible to become the strongest sect in the Northern Territory, nor could it withstand those mysterious figures!"
At this moment, Su Tong thought clearly.
"That Hidden Spirit Sect sect master is at least at the Divine Soul or Divine Spirit realm."
Back then, the remnants of that Hidden Spirit Sect sect master's Divine Soul left behind gave Su Tong an extremely powerful sense of pressure.
But for the entire Hidden Spirit Sect, the best they could take out was just these two divine-grade cultivation techniques and spirit techniques.
If this was really the case, the overall strength of Hidden Spirit Sect would not be that strong.
"Where exactly is the error occurring!"
Su Tong's brows were slightly furrowed at this moment.
He could not figure out that there were many contradictory places here.
"The realm matches. Only with such a powerful realm could they withstand those blood-colored figures, and what I saw in the illusion was real. Hidden Spirit Sect's ordinary disciples were all at the Returning Void realm."
Su Tong analyzed bit by bit.
Now, if a sect had three Returning Void realm experts, it could have a place among the top forces in the Northern Territory.
Or even be the number one sect in the Northern Territory.
Just like the former Qi Mu Sect, with two Returning Void realm experts, it was the number one sect in the Northern Territory.
Later, with the addition of Fang He, if it were not for the accident with Su Tong in Crimson Rainbow Sect.
They would still be the strongest sect in this Hundred Sects Tournament.
But within Hidden Spirit Sect, even the lowest disciples were at least at the Returning Void realm.
It was impossible for all of them to be cultivating divine-grade cultivation techniques, after all that required perception.
Otherwise, those spirit-grade cultivation techniques would be useless.
But even so, cultivating spirit-grade cultivation techniques allowed each of them to step into the Returning Void realm.
"The cultivation techniques and spirit techniques do not match!"
At this moment, Su Tong also determined one thing.
If spirit-grade cultivation techniques could allow all disciples to reach the Returning Void realm, then Crimson Rainbow Sect would not only have Luo Zi Yin at the Returning Void realm.
At least several elders should also be at the Returning Void realm.
But the facts were not the case.
"Could it be because of pills?"
Su Tong also had another idea at this moment.
If Hidden Spirit Sect's disciples could use a large number of pills, it would be possible.
"Impossible. A sect occupying the entire Hidden Spirit Island would have at least tens of thousands, or over a hundred thousand disciples. It's impossible for them all to improve by relying on pills!"
Su Tong denied his own thoughts at this moment.
If Hidden Spirit Sect's disciples all relied on pills, Hidden Spirit Sect would probably go bankrupt.
"In that case, it should be an issue with the cultivation techniques and spirit techniques, but what exactly is the specific problem?"
At this moment, Su Tong still did not figure it out.
Actually, there was no problem with the cultivation and spirit techniques themselves, only the quantity was wrong.
If there were multiple divine-grade cultivation techniques, it would make sense.
If one could not be comprehended, another could be started.
This way, the overall strength of Hidden Spirit Sect, at least those above the Returning Void realm, would make sense.
But before, Su Tong had only seen one set of divine-grade cultivation technique and divine-grade spirit technique in Hidden Spirit Sect.
It was completely inconsistent with the style of a super sect.
If it was said that Hidden Spirit Sect declined step by step, it could still make sense.
But the old man said before that the reason Hidden Spirit Sect became what Su Tong saw was because they used the full power of the entire sect to resist those blood-colored figures.
"It seems I have to carefully check all the details about this Hidden Spirit Sect. The sect master previously said that Crimson Rainbow Sect also knew some things about Hidden Spirit Sect!"
Su Tong had some clues now, but could not sort them out clearly.
He could only hope that Luo Zi Yin could provide some useful clues.
Thinking of this, Su Tong called the Lightning Beast and rode to Luo Zi Yin's residence.
A while later.
"Elder Su Tong is looking for me, is there something?"
Luo Zi Yin looked at Su Tong who rushed over in a hurry, somewhat puzzled.
Could there be a problem with the Hidden Spirit formation?
"Did the sect master already know of the existence of Hidden Spirit Sect before?"
Su Tong asked straightforwardly.
"Yes, not only me, the grand elder and several other elders, as well as the longer established sects like Qi Mu Sect and Shen Feng Sect, we all knew of the existence of Hidden Spirit Sect!"
Luo Zi Yin nodded.
"Since you never set foot in Hidden Spirit Sect, how did you know of its existence?"
Su Tong was very curious about this.
They didn't even know the situation on Hidden Spirit Island, so how did they know of the existence of Hidden Spirit Sect?
"It was recorded in an ancient book!"
At this time, Luo Zi Yin also answered Su Tong's doubts.
"Ancient book?"
Su Tong's brows furrowed slightly.
He had not seen such an ancient book in Crimson Rainbow Sect.
"That's right. Thousands of years ago, there were no sects in the Northern Territory. Some young people with outstanding perception in the kingdoms absorbed the spiritual energy between heaven and earth independently and entered the Tempering stage."
Luo Zi Yin looked at Su Tong and talked about some things from the past.
These were things Su Tong had never heard before, about the Northern Territory, about the Hundred Sects!
