Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1220

The cave was not far away. It was hidden behind a bush on the hillside behind the wooden cabin.

Callum led Fade and the others into the cave. The ground of the cave was flat, and there were also some daily necessities scattered around. Callum and his followers had sorted them out. After walking in the cave for more than ten minutes, they had entered the mountain.

When a stone door appeared in front of them, Callum stopped in his tracks. He turned around and announced, "Here it is."

Fade glanced at the stone door, then gently patted out his energy and directed the blow at the door.

In an instant, a huge ray of blinding light shone from the door, and a layer of water-like ripples gushed out. Thick energy immediately erupted and spread outward, overwhelming the group with a sense of oppression.

Dacia and the others, who were slightly weaker, felt the impact of this energy. It was unbearable for them, so they quickly activated their positive energy to resist it.

The overbearing energy lasted for about a minute before it slowly dissipated.

Fade's expression was indifferent. He frowned slightly as he stared at the stone door.

On the other hand, Callum's brows twitched slightly when he saw this. A hint of joy appeared on his face, but he immediately concealed it and said, "This stone door is sealed with a formation. If you want to use positive energy to break it open, you must possess at least the middle- stage of Heaven Level cultivation or higher. Otherwise, you can't break in."

Dacia exclaimed when he heard this, "Middlestage of Heavenly Level? Where can we find an expert of this level?"

Callum shrugged and replied, "That's why we can't break it by force. We must find other ways to break the formation." "What ideas do you have?" Dacia asked again.

Callum glared at Dacia before looking at Fade. He said, "The formation was set up by the martial artists. As long as you have a deep understanding of the formation, you can crack the code with the reverse formation induction method. However, this kind of reverse induction is difficult. The average level martial artists have no understanding of the formation at all. It's a big problem if you can't even understand it, le alone crack it."

After saying this, there was a smug look on Callum's face. He had a slightly arrogant expression as he added, "I was very interested in formations when I was in the clan and studied them for many years. During this period, I spent almost half a month investigating it. After a careful deduction, I finally found a clue to crack the formation."

Everyone's gaze immediately turned to Fade after listening to Callum's words. In particular, Callum had a look of anticipation in his eyes. It seemed that he wanted to use this to negotiate terms and conditions with Fade to get some benefits for himself.

To his surprise, Fade ignored Callum's bragging. Instead, he crouched down to gather energy with his fingers and then drew complicated lines and patterns on the ground.

When Dacia and the others saw this, they questioned in puzzlement, "What is Master Chen doing?"

Callum was the only one who looked at the drawings carefully. After a while, his expression changed and surprise was written over his face.

He recognized the pattern that Fade was drawing on the ground. It was exactly the road map for deducing and breaking the formation on the stone door.

Watching at how Fade was drawing it so effortlessly, Callum had nearly wondered if the formation was set up by Fade himself. Otherwise, how could the latter find a way to crack the formation within such a short period? He had only seen the formation a few minutes ago and yet he could already determine a way to solve it.

After all, Callum had spent more than half a month to look for the answer. Not only that, but he had even sent countless messages back to the clan and asked his master for guidance.

"This should be it," Fade muttered once he had finished sketching and gazed at the completed pattern on the ground. He then stood up and nodded, saying, "Next, it's time to break the formation." As he spoke, Fade walked toward the stone door.

Callum was taken aback yet again. He quickly pointed out, "We need the relevant materials to break the formation. I have collected most of the materials. What we need now is the Purple Smoke Stone which you've brought along with you."

Callum still had the same intention. He wanted to use this opportunity to negotiate with Fade to get something in return.

Nonetheless, Fade ignored him and continued walking toward the stone door.

This time around, Callum was a little puzzled. Standing beside him, Dacia and the others were confused as well. They asked, "Callum, why do we need the materials that you mentioned to break the formation?"

Callum snorted disdainfully and responded, "The basic principle of the formation is to communicate with Heaven and Earth. Thus, it is essential to use the energy provided by nature or humans to maintain the operation of the formation."

"There are only two ways to break the formation. One is to open it by force as I described earlier. We will have to use the positive energy that is stronger than the formation in order to break it."

"The other method is to find the eye of the formation and crack it with ingenuity. However, this kind of skill is only relative to the formation. It not only requires precision but also a sufficient amount of energy." "The source of this formation's energy is from the surrounding Universe energy. After a long time, the energy absorbed by the formation is sufficient, and its power is very great. It is also the main reason why the formation's reaction was so massive even though it was merely a simple probe." "In this case, even if we find the eye of the formation and have the desire to break it, we need extraordinary positive energy to support it. If a person can't support the positive energy, we would need various kinds of materials for assistance. That's why I collected the materials."

After hearing this, Dacia and the others finally understood.

In reality, it showed that Callum wasn't strong enough after all. If his strength was sufficient, he could easily break the formation by force or skill. He could have completed the task by himself. After explaining, Callum looked at Fade again. He was waiting for Fade to ask for the materials that he needed.

To his disappointment, Fade didn't ask for the materials. He went straight to the stone door and stared at it for a moment, then gathered his energy with his palm and slammed it against the stone door. Callum was scared out of his wits at this. He hurriedly yelled, "Stop! What are you doing?"

Fade turned around and answered solemnly, "I'm breaking the formation."

Callum's expression changed drastically. He ignored Fade's great strength and shouted at him, "Break the formation? Are you trying to kill all of us?"

"You even tried it to break it just now. A small amount of positive energy injected into the formation can cause it to emit such dense and impactful energy. Now that you have gathered so much positive energy, I'm afraid the entire cave will explode if you try to break it again. There will be no way for us to survive!"

Hearing Callum's exasperation, Dacia and the rest were intimidated too and their faces fell.

After all, the impact and pressure of the powerful energy which the formation had released previously had caused them to feel utterly overwhelmed.
