435 Array
The metal ball didn’t look big on the outside, but there was something else inside. As soon as Xia Pingan entered, he realized that it was extremely big inside. There were pavilions, gardens, and waterside pavilions. There were many courtyards inside, just like the courtyard of a wealthy family. The place where everyone appeared was the square in front of the courtyard. The surrounding area was quite empty, with arched doors and winding corridors leading to different courtyards.
...Except for Xia Pingan, the others who entered this place all went through an empty door. As soon as they passed through the empty door, all the items in their space-teleportation equipment, such as pills, weapons, and immortal crane eternal flame, were all refreshed out. They couldn’t hide anything even if they wanted to.
The WAN Shen sect had also obtained a lot of immortal crane eternal brightness lamps, hundreds of them.
Besides these eternal lamps, only the people involved knew whether they had gained anything else after entering the shrine.
“Ahem, elder Li, I have too many items in my space-teleportation equipment. Do I need to go through the portal?” Xia Pingan asked obediently.
Elder li looked at Xia Pingan with a calm expression and shook his head. there’s no need. You weren’t a member of the WAN Shen sect’s exploration of the fallen God land, so there’s no need to check the Kasaya. in fact, elder li was thinking that no matter how lucky Xia Pingan was, it was impossible for him to get two fragments of the divine weapon at once in the hall. Xia Pingan had already given the fragments to true Lord Minghe, and true Lord Minghe had also expressed his approval in public. It was useless to say anything more at this time. If he continued to give Xia Pingan a hard time, it would make him look petty, so he simply didn’t care. However, in his heart, elder li had a higher opinion of Xia Pingan’s character, and he was secretly impressed.
ahem, besides that eternal flame, I’ve also made some other eternal flame. I’ll hand them over to Wan Shen sect and ask elder li to examine them. I’m also doing my part to help. Xia Pingan was quite thick-skinned, or rather, his attitude was quite proper. As he spoke, he waved his hand and took out the other dozens of immortal crane eternal flame lamps that he had gotten and put them aside. It was a contribution to Wan Shen sect, and no one could say anything about it.
With a wave of his hand, elder li put away all the eternal lamps. He naturally had a way to verify whether there were other strange things and divine artifact fragments in the eternal lamps.
elder, there was an accident when we entered the fallen God land this time. All the senior brothers and junior sisters have tried their best, but the giant snakes were killed. The method we discussed to deal with those giant snakes didn’t work. Will the sect still honor the reward this time? can we still fuse those sagemaster realm beads? ” Seeing elder li put away the eternal flame, Gu Yulong asked with a drooling face.
Qu Yitong and the others also looked at elder li!
As Summoners, the reason why everyone was willing to take the risk to come here and participate in this mission was because of the conditions promised by the WAN Shen sect.
I have to report to the sect about this accident, so we’ll talk about it when we get back to the undying city. Don’t worry, Wan Shen sect will never let those who work for the sect suffer! Elder li replied calmly as a way of consoling everyone. Then, with a wave of his hand, he passed a key to Xia Pingan. He pointed to a courtyard not far away and said, ” long Huan, you can stay in the heavenly Spirit Garden. The house there is still empty. Rest here for five days, and we’ll arrive at the undying city. Everyone has been tired these few days, so you can rest here!
“Alright!” Xia Pingan took the key.
Elder li didn’t say anything else after that. He walked directly to a courtyard in front of him, closed the door, and disappeared before everyone’s eyes.
the sect has a gag order for this mission. Everyone is not to talk about it after you return. If anyone asks about Junior Brother fan, just say that you don’t know anything, ” qu Yitong’s gaze swept across everyone’s faces as he said in a deep voice.
those who can join the WAN Shen sect should be mentally prepared for this kind of thing, haha. Hong endao shook his head and smiled bitterly, ” the path of Investiture of the Gods is not that easy to walk. All resources are earned by one’s own blood, sweat, and death. Haha.
I didn’t think about the deification ceremony. Gu Yulong’s eyes turned around and he sighed. I just want to reach the energy shaping realm. I’m satisfied. As long as I leave the God-killing insect world, energy shaping realm experts are top figures everywhere. I’m not willing to follow the reality realm. By the way, Junior Brother long, to be honest, I admire you. You actually took out the fragment of the divine artifact. If you had thought of a way to fool perfected Lord Minghe and handed it to the WAN Shen sect, I would have been satisfied. Do you still need to worry about cultivation resources in the future?”
since I’ve promised someone, I can’t go back on my word. I can’t forget my loyalty for profit. If I do that, even if I can advance to the spirit focus realm in the future, what’s the point? ”
Gu Yulong immediately gave Xia ping ‘an a thumbs up.
by the way, Junior Brother long, how did you find out that the immortal crane eternal flame lamp was a fragment of a divine artifact? ” Qu Yitong asked. This question had been on everyone’s mind for a long time.
Xia Pingan scratched his head with an honest look on his face. I don’t know either. I saw that everyone was looking for something in the hall, so I just strolled around casually. When I walked over, I saw that the immortal crane eternal flame was quite exquisite, so I wanted to take one to take a look. I didn’t expect that immortal crane eternal flame to be so special!
“Was it also a coincidence that Junior Brother long obtained the soul splitting secret technique to refine soul tools?” Gu Yulong’s face was full of envy.
“En, it’s about the same. I just casually strolled around and as I strolled, I inexplicably met Xi Xi.”
it seems like Junior Brother long is blessed with luck. Others can’t learn it even if they want to! Hong endao also looked at Xia ping ‘an with envy and sighed.
alright, everyone must be tired after these few days. Let’s go back and rest, ” qu Yitong said as he turned around and walked towards a courtyard.
After being tense for seven days in the fallen God land, everyone was indeed a little tired. After hearing qu Yitong’s words, everyone dispersed.
Xia Pingan took the key and walked towards the corridor that elder li had pointed out earlier. In just a few minutes, they arrived outside a courtyard. There was a garden outside the courtyard, and the garden was filled with plum blossoms. There was also a rockery with flowing water, making it quite quiet. Xia Pingan looked at the three words ” Sky Garden ” hanging on the front door of the courtyard. Xia Pingan used the key to open the door of the courtyard and directly entered it.
As soon as he entered, the door closed automatically.
This courtyard covered an area of two to three mu, and only Xia ping ‘an lived here. There was a secret room, bedroom, living room, and a small courtyard in the courtyard.
In addition to Xia ping ‘an, there were also a few wooden puppets in the courtyard. As soon as Xia ping’ an entered, the two wooden puppets in the courtyard began to get busy, pouring tea for Xia ping ‘an.
Xia Pingan released the Child of Fortune and summoned the Black Dragon. He walked around the courtyard and found nothing unusual. He was completely relieved.
Ever since he met true Lord netherworld River, he had had a tough time, but he had also gained a lot.
After drinking two cups of tea, Xia Pingan looked at The Walking wooden puppets and thought of the ” collection of formations and mechanisms of Kunlun ” that he had read from Zhuge Liang.
In any case, he still had to stay here for five days. Since he had nothing to do, he might as well study the mechanisms of the formation.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Xia ping ‘an could no longer sit still. He put down his teacup and went straight to the secret room. He rubbed his hands and began to prepare.
Since formations were of great use, he would start with formations.
Formations were not illusory things. For a formation master, mountains, rivers, stars, and even a few stones, flowers, trees, and terracotta soldiers could all be used to set up formations. Zhuge Liang’s eight formations diagram was set up by using the terrain of mountains and rivers and stones.
However, for a Summoner, the formation set up with the terrain of the mountains and rivers was a fixed formation that could not be taken away. It was like a fixed asset and was only used to guard important areas, or to protect places such as sects, secret realms, cities, and secret rooms.
Summoners still loved array disks the most. Array disks were live arrays that could be carried around and taken out when needed. They were simple, efficient, and could be used repeatedly.
Xia Pingan recalled all the knowledge he had and began to make his first array disc.
For a Summoner, making a disk array was like making a special sand plate model. The sand plate model could be ever-changing and include the mountains and rivers in it. The same was true for a disk array. A disk array was actually a miniature world of arrays.
The most common metal used to make array disks was gold, silver, and copper. Of course, iron could also be used, but most array Masters would choose gold, silver, and copper as the base material of the array disks. Some array Masters would choose more Special Metals or add some gemstones or even poisons. This also allowed the array disks made by different array Masters to have thousands of different characteristics.
Xia ping ‘an was using gold, and there were still a lot of gold coins in his storage space.
Xia Pingan took out a pile of gold coins and placed them on the table in front of him. Then, he made a hand gesture of an array master. Under the guidance of his hands, the gold coins on the table slowly floated up and were then surrounded by a ball of scorching flames.
In the high temperature of the flame, the gold coin gradually turned into a liquid and became a ball the size of a lead ball. Then, the ball slowly flattened and gradually became a disc.
As Xia Pingan continued to perform hand seals, the round plate also kept changing its shape. Half an hour later, the Golden Plate had completely cooled down. The round plate was covered with circles of mysterious array lines, which looked like a Tai Chi. In the array lines, there were two special grooves.
Xia Pingan picked up the disc and looked at it. She found that the disc was not exquisite enough and was a little rough, but there was no big problem with it.
After all, it was understandable that this was his first time forging an array disc.
This disk wasn’t even an array disk, it was only the prototype of an array disk.
Xia Pingan had used the most common Yin Yang two elements formation as the formation embryo.
After placing down the array embryo, Xia Pingan took out a handful of gold coins and began to cast a spell to melt them. After a short while, the gold coins turned into liquid again, and the liquid turned into two small golden swords.
After the hand seals were completed and the spells cooled down, Xia Pingan obtained two small golden swords that were more than two inches long. Upon closer inspection, the small golden swords were also densely covered with various array patterns that others would not understand.
These two small swords were part of the formation disk’s formation tool.
Xia ping ‘an inserted the two small golden swords into the grooves of the array embryo. With two cracking sounds, the two swords closed without any gaps.
As soon as the two small swords were inserted, the array embryo started to slowly rotate as if it had a life of its own.
The combination of the formation embryo and the formation tool only formed the formation base.
Of course, this wasn’t the end. It wasn’t that easy to make a formation disk. Although Xia Pingan wanted to make the simplest formation disk of the yin and yang sword array for practice, there was still a lot of work to be done. The most important things were the arrangement of the formation eye and the formation door.
As Xia Pingan made a hand seal, the array board suddenly floated up. Two small swords flew out of the array board and, like two fish in the Tai Chi diagram, they began to spin around the array embryo.
Xia Pingan’s hands formed a series of hand seals. Every ten minutes or so, he would send balls of colorful divine power array runes into the array base.
As Xia ping ‘an entered the array, the array disc flashed with light and grew larger and larger. Gradually, it became as large as a millstone and began to spin above Xia ping’ an’s head.
One day later
As Xia Pingan inserted the last array pattern into it, the array board suddenly glowed with a golden light.
Success!
Xia Pingan was overjoyed.
However, the joy didn’t last for more than three seconds. Xia Pingan found that the first array disc he had made had begun to shake violently. The array patterns in the array disc began to melt, and the spatial energy in the secret room affected by the array disc suddenly became chaotic and violent.
not good! Xia Pingan quickly summoned a water shield to protect himself.
With a loud ” Bang Bang Bang “, the first array disc that Xia Pingan had created exploded. Smoke and dust filled the air, and countless gold fragments scattered like bullets.
Xia Pingan’s face was covered in dust.
The first disk array had actually failed!
Fortunately, the secret room was surrounded by iron walls. They had considered all kinds of situations and had a strong protective ability. The damage of an array plate did not cause much damage to the secret room.
However, Xia Pingan was not discouraged. When everything in the secret chamber calmed down, he collected all the scattered pieces of the array disc and put them in front of his table. He put all the pieces together and reassembled the array disc into the previous appearance. He began to deliberate and study it bit by bit to see where the problem was.
A few hours later, Xia Pingan’s face revealed a thoughtful expression. it’s because I was inexperienced when I inserted the array pattern. The array pattern was squeezed and deformed, and in the end, it melted.
After thinking for a moment, he made a hand seal, and the broken gold fragments floated into the air again, beginning to be interrogated by the flames.
Xia Pingan started to refine the array embryo again.
A moment later, a new array embryo was refined. Compared to the previous one, it looked much more exquisite.
After a while, the two small golden swords were also refined and inserted into the array embryo.
Another day passed, and the golden light in the secret room brightened again.
The table-sized array board finally spun and turned into a golden light before falling steadily into Xia Pingan’s palm. It then became the size of a palm.
Xia ping ‘an laughed as he looked at the array board in his hand. The first array board of the yin and yang sword array that he had made was completed.
Xia Pingan held the array board and was happy for a while. He then muttered to himself, ” if fire and icicles are added to the yin and yang sword array, the damage should be greater. However, in this way, some adjustments will have to be made to the previous array embryo, and new array patterns will have to be added. Well, I can try it out.
After thinking about it in his mind, Xia Pingan put the completed array disc into his spatial equipment. Then, he took out a pile of gold coins and began to refine a new array embryo.
