“[One-Click Formation Space]: Place materials as listed on the formation scroll to instantly create the corresponding formation with a single click!”

“Only 51.2 million Spirit Coins needed to unlock!”

A new system function just for creating formations?

Su Xiaobai’s eyes lit up with joy.

He hadn’t had much exposure to formations, but he was well aware of their importance— and of the immense power they could unleash!

Take the hundreds-layer defense formation of Zefeng Great City, for example.

Back then, even when Su Xiaobai went all-out and struck it with full force, he only managed to crack it slightly.

The entire city trembled, yet the formation still managed to hold off his attack!

If that formation hadn’t been there, at least one-fifth of Zefeng Great City would have been destroyed by his strike!

Defensive formations are the foundation of any city.

The stronger the city, the more layers of formations it employs— to resist sneak attacks and all-out assaults.

Just like a fortress: the stronger the formation, the sturdier the stronghold!

When Su Xiaobai visited Fanya Sacred City, he’d seen countless formations densely etched across the city walls—both defensive and offensive.

Once triggered, even Saint-level powerhouses would meet their end.

With deterrents like that in place— who’d be dumb enough to stir up trouble?

But formations weren’t just for city defense.

For cultivators, formations could rapidly gather spiritual energy, speeding up cultivation.

For martial training, they could isolate external interference.

To hide or obscure something, formations could provide camouflage and concealment.

And in combat, they could burst into life to trap or kill enemies on the spot— even perform blood sacrifices or gather blood qi with terrifying efficiency!

The fact that Qi Chan had pre-laid blood sacrifice curses on the Siwu Clan’s cities and top officials was enough proof of how proficient he was in formation techniques!

There are two main ways to construct formations: Use spiritual energy as the brush, and rare materials as the medium, then draw formation patterns across a location or object.

This method demands deep mastery, significant time and effort, but in return, produces exceptionally powerful results.

Let a formation master pre-inscribe formations onto scrolls, talismans, or objects.

In times of crisis, crush or activate them directly— and the formation takes effect instantly.

This is faster and more convenient, but the power is generally weaker, and the carriers are often very expensive.

Yet both methods share a truth: The stronger the formation, the steeper the cost.

And they share another trait— they require mastery and time.

Even the best formation masters still take effort and hours to craft high-tier formations!

But now— One-Click Formation replaces both limitations!

No need for deep understanding.

No need for time-consuming preparation.

As long as you have the materials, you can mass-produce formations in bulk—instantly!

Even if you’re a complete rookie, as long as you have a formation scroll listing the required materials, you can create powerful formations with zero effort!

No hassle. No learning curve.

Just input materials, get product.

Most importantly— a single high-tier formation could be worth more than pills or weapons!

Even if Su Xiaobai didn’t need them personally, he could simply collect materials, use One-Click Formation to create finished products, then sell them for massive profit!

The arrival of One-Click Formation meant he now had another massive income stream to match his One-Click Alchemy and One-Click Forging!

“Unlock it—right now!”

Su Xiaobai barked eagerly.

Right now, humanity was relocating to Zefeng Great City to gain a foothold—

From this point on, Zefeng would be a major stronghold for Earth’s humans in the Vast Domain, and the first true step of humankind’s expansion into that realm.

Naturally, Su Xiaobai had to outfit Zefeng with a proper defensive shell!

But that wasn’t all.

“It’s time for my power base to make its debut!”

His eyes shone with a dazzling gleam.

Even before the Siwu Clan was wiped out, Su Xiaobai had already planned to build his own faction in the Vast Domain.

Yes—he was from the Earth Human race.

But he could only shelter them, not lead them.

To be blunt, the Earth humans were still far too weak.

Even a minor Siwu offshoot could bring them to the brink, posing a threat to their very survival.

It was completely unrealistic to expect Earth humans to catch up within a thousand or ten thousand years!

Therefore, Su Xiaobai needed to establish a faction of his own.

One that belonged only to him, loyal only to him.

Right now, the only forces he could command were his shadows.

And while shadows could fight, they couldn’t gather intel, build cities, or recruit allies.

Only sentient life could manage those tasks!

Just like how the Dongfang Clan helped him acquire materials— shadows couldn’t do that.

But the Dongfang Clan was still far too weak.

Not just in the Vast Domain—even on Earth, they were just mid-tier at best.

Su Xiaobai needed true powerhouses— ones that could help him maintain order, expand his influence, recruit talent, buy spiritual materials, gather intelligence, and more!

And for that, he needed one thing first: A territory of his own!

With territory, he could use it as a hub— a base to slowly expand outward.

And that’s where formations came in.

With formations, he no longer had to worry about Su Ling’er’s safety.

Earth’s humans would be perfectly protected, and he could finally be free of all concerns!

“Deducting 51.2 million Spirit Coins—One-Click Formation Space unlocked!”

“Level 1 unlocked: Can now create formations of [Common Grade]”

With the system notification, a new function slot appeared beside One-Click Synthesis.

The ground of the new space was etched with a complex formation diagram, comprised of circles, squares, diamonds, and trigrams layered together.

Mixed into the lines were characters from both the Vast Domain’s script and Earth’s Chinese, and though it looked densely packed, a closer look revealed a harmonious, all-embracing sense of unity.

“System, upgrade One-Click Formation Space!”

“Deducting 358 million Spirit Coins—upgraded to level 2. Formation grade raised to [Spirit Grade]!”
