Chapter 1464 A Reliable Method


    ?1464  A Reliable Method


    "Performance-enhancing drugs, huh? Do you think the Fiery Locust Swarm would stoop that low during our match when they already significantly outnumber us?" Wang Bingbing asked.


    "I wouldn''t put it past them since they are heavily connected with Fiery Queen, who loves to y dirty." Bai Lianhua shrugged.


    "In fact, several of their members have already been caught using performance-enhancing drugs, such as pills that temporarily boost their cultivation base or strength."


    Suddenly, Yu Ning''s voice resounded inside Yuan''s head.


    ''I know of a formation that will automatically detect anyone who is under performance-enhancing effects.''


    ''Oh? That does sound convenient and useful. Although I don''t care if my opponentsck integrity, it would be unfair to everyone else who is abiding by the rules. Do you mind creating this formation around the indter?''


    ''I don''t mind!'' Yu Ning immediately responded.


    ''Thank you.''


    ''There''s no need to thank me. My body and soul already belonged to you the moment you brought me out of the Shadow Realm.''


    ''We''re technically not out of the Shadow Realm yet.''


    ''It''s close enough.''


    ''By the way, do you know of any formations that could prevent yers from seriously injuring or killing each other during the match? I have experienced a few of them for myself.'' Yuan suddenly asked, recalling his experience in Ancient Dragon City.


    ''The onesmonly used in tournaments and sparring matches to prevent idental death, correct? Of course, I know how to make them. I can even make one that can restore limbs, but those require more time and a higher cultivation base than Spirit King.''


    ''Okay.''


    Yuan cleared his throat and spoke out loud the following moment, "Chairman Lee, regarding the issue with yers using performance-enhancing drugs, I may have a reliable method to detect those under the influence."


    "What?!"


    Unable to detain his excitement, Chairman Lee stood up and mmed the desk with a shocked look on his face.


    "Is that true?! How?!"


    "Do you know about arrays and formations? I know of a formation that will help us catch these cheaters. If you agree, I can create the formation around this ind."


    "If you can really do such a thing, I have no reason to refuse! These cheaters have been a pain in our butt since Cultivation Online''s system update, but we don''t know how to reliably detect them!"


    Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, then I will make the formation. However, I need a few favors from you."


    Chairman Lee swallowed nervously.


    "What is it?"


    "One, you will keep the fact that I created the formation a secret. Two, I will activate the formation once our match with the Fiery Locust Swarm begins, and even if there are yers cheating, I want you to let them continue the match. I will create the formation right now if you can do these two things for me."


    "You''re going to allow the Fiery Locust Swarm to cheat?" Chairman Lee was dumbfounded by his bold decision.


    "I won''t be able to teach them a lesson if you remove them, after all." He showed a cold smile.


    "I-is that so…" Chairman Lee''s entire being trembled.


    After a moment of silence, he nodded, "Okay, we won''t remove them, but how will this formation expose these cheaters?"


    "You''ll find out when I activate the formation."


    Sometimeter, Yuan closed his eyes and allowed Yu Ning to take over his body again.


    His cultivation base soared to the peak of Spirit King, and Yu Ning quickly started filling the room with Array Symbols.


    "W-wow…" Wang Bingbing muttered in a dazed voice.


    Since only Bai Lianhua and Yu Rou were aware of Yu Ning''s existence, nobody else in the room realized that Yuan was currently being possessed by an ancient deity and believed that he was the one in control.


    Several minutester, Yu Ning covered the entire ind with the formation and sat down to replenish Yuan''s exhausted spiritual energy.


    ''Ah~! I didn''t think I would get to experience this amazing feeling again so soon!'' Yu Ning thought inwardly as she fully immersed herself in the moment.


    Once his body regained enough spiritual energy, Yu Ning returned the control to Yuan.


    "Y-Yuan! When did you reach Spirit King?!" Shi Lang stared at him with bulging eyes.


    He shook his head and said, "That was just temporary. My real cultivation is still at Spirit Grandmaster."


    "Huh? So that was a technique?"


    "No, it''s not. I will exin everythingter."


    Chairman Lee then asked, "So, is it done?"


    Yuan nodded, "Yes, the formation ispleted. I just need to activate it during the match."


    "Thank you! Unfortunately, I don''t know how to repay you for this!" Chairman Lee lowered his head and bowed.


    Yuan casually waved his hand and said, "I don''t need any payment since I am not doing this specifically for you. In fact, I also wanted to create a formation that would prevent the yers from being seriously injured or killed, but I will have to do thister since I don''t have enough time right now."


    "W-what? Can you say that again?" Chairman Lee slowly lifted his head to look at Yuan with disbelief.


    Seeing the confusion in Chairman Lee''s eyes, Yuan proceeded to exin the formation in more detail.


    "These formations aremonly used in Cultivation Online to prevent idents during tournaments and friendly spars. They allow anyone within the formation to use their full power without needing to worry about identally killing their opponent."


    "Seriously? How reliable is this formation?"


    "Unless the yer''s cultivation surpasses the creator''s cultivation, it''s almost impossible for anything to go wrong within the formation. It''s certainly safer than whatever you''re doing now. Would you like to test it out for yourself?"


    Although Chairman Lee was anxious about experiencing something unknown to him, his curiosity made it so that he couldn''t refuse.


    Seeing Chairman Lee nod his head in approval, Yuan handed his body to Yu Ning again.


    Since the formation would only berge enough to cover the entire room, Yu Ning didn''t have to put much effort or time into it,pleting the formation even faster than thest.
