15 Chapter 15 I Want Your Comprehension of Array Method_1
Translator: 549690339
Audacious idea?
All eyes simultaneously turned to Li Cheng, filled with curiosity.
Li Cheng pointed at the peak, “What if we turn it upside down and settle it like that? Even better if we could use a formation to keep it levitating!”
Floating Peak?
The crowd was shocked. The Kunlun Southern Region did indeed have floating peaks, but they were impractical.
Nice to look at, but not to use!
Moreover, floating peaks required a vast amount of nature’s spiritual energy to maintain their float, a loss-making endeavor!
“I truly apologize, Junior Martial Uncle, with my array mastery, I cannot set up a levitating array. Although it’s just a sixth-level array, it’s not very useful, so I haven’t studied it,” the Sixth Elder flew in and said with a smile.
Li Cheng felt somewhat disappointed, imagining those peaks floating in the air from the movies, which truly exemplified the magnificent scenery of the Cultivation World.
“Sixth Elder, if we start researching now, how many days would it take to set up? The Eighteenth Peak has only Junior Martial Uncle and Yun Tianqiong. A floating peak would actually be quite suitable for their residence,” Mu Xingzhi said.
The Sixth Elder’s eyes widened, “Sect Master, a sixth-level array isn’t something that can be thoroughly understood so easily! A few days? Don’t joke, it would be closer to ten or eight years.”
Li Cheng’s face broke into a smile as he nodded towards the Sixth Elder, “No need to specifically research it. I was just speaking off the cuff. It’s pretty good as it is, this peak is already beautiful.”
Although he said that, Li Cheng had already made up his mind.
When he had more instances of enlightenment, he would simply focus on comprehending the array method first. He would then set up the levitating array himself to turn the peak into a floating peak.
But this would require a vast knowledge of array methods as a foundation for enlightenment, or like last time, based on someone else’s comprehension of array methods.
With that thought, Li Cheng looked at the Sixth Elder. Wasn’t this an opportunity readily available?
Seeing Li Cheng looking at him, the Sixth Elder cupped his fists and said with a smile: “Junior Martial Uncle, what array do you need? I’ll set it up right away.”
The smile on Li Cheng’s face grew a bit thicker, “Sixth Elder, I have an impolite request to make!”
The Sixth Elder laughed heartily, “Just say the word, Junior Martial Uncle. Anything I can do, I will not refuse!”
The Sixth Elder was secretly elated. Junior Martial Uncle was the strongest in the sect, and surely now he wanted help setting up some special arrays, which of course he couldn’t refuse!
With that thought, the Sixth Elder didn’t forget to cast a triumphant glance at the other elders, his expression seeming to say: See? Even someone as strong as Junior Martial Uncle needs my help sometimes.
Li Cheng was delighted, “Sixth Elder, I want your comprehension of array methods!”
Huh?
The smile on the Sixth Elder’s face instantly froze.
The expressions of the other elders and the Sect Master were also one of sudden surprise!
Good heavens, after obtaining the Alchemy Dao insight from the Seventh Elder, Junior Martial Uncle became an incredible pill master. Now, he has set his sights on the Array Method?
With Li Cheng’s performance, there was no doubt that in the realm of alchemy, he was an undeniably extraordinary talent!
But after uncovering such talent in alchemy, could he possibly achieve the same in the Array Method?
Wouldn’t that be far too arrogant?
The First Elder cleared his throat, “Junior Martial Uncle, a person’s energy is ultimately limited. If you delve into too much, it could be counterproductive. Why not forget it?”
“Yeah, Junior Martial Uncle, whatever array you need, just ask the Sixth Elder to set it up for you. Why bother doing it yourself?” Mu Xingzhi and others persuaded in unison.
The corner of the Sixth Elder’s mouth twitched. Was it really okay to talk like this in front of him?
But he knew that the Sect Master and the others said this because they were afraid Junior Martial Uncle would waste too much time, as rushing to cross the tribulation and ascend was the real priority!
Li Cheng waved his hand, “I’m just curious about the Array Method and want to simply understand it a bit. There’s nothing wrong with that!”
At these words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
What they feared was Li Cheng immersing himself in the Array Method. If casual research turned into years, that would be a serious delay in the crucial matter of ascending!
Mu Xingzhi pondered and asked, “Does my junior martial uncle truly just want a simple understanding?”
“Yeah, if there’s a chance, everyone should also learn more about other ways. There’s no need to deeply comprehend, but understanding a bit is always good,” Li Cheng said.
All present nodded in agreement; this statement was naturally correct.
Mu Xingzhi looked towards the Sixth Elder.
The Sixth Elder nodded. His Comprehension of Array Method might be very precious, but being valued by his junior martial uncle was an honor for him.
The Sect Master had indicated his approval, so naturally, there was no need for further thought.
After receiving the Comprehension of Array Method from the Sixth Elder, Li Cheng happily said, “Thank you, Sixth Elder. I’ll return it in a few days!”
There was no opportunity for enlightenment right now, but there definitely would be one tomorrow.
“It’s no trouble, junior martial uncle. I’ll first arrange the Mountain Protection Array, which will connect to the sect’s main array,” the Sixth Elder said.
Li Cheng nodded, knowing that every peak had its own Mountain Protection Array, all contributing to the sect’s interlinked Mountain Protection Arrays.
“Sixth Elder, how long will it take?” Mu Xingzhi inquired.
The Sixth Elder certainly hadn’t forgotten the Sect Master’s instruction to delay time!
So the Sixth Elder hesitantly replied, “Two or three days, perhaps?”
“Cough cough… Sixth Elder, you are an Array Master, and a level-six one at that. It doesn’t need to take that long, right?” Mu Xingzhi coughed dryly.
A hint of confusion flickered in the Sixth Elder’s eyes. Weren’t they supposed to delay time? Was it no longer necessary?
“Then one day!” Pondering over it, the Sixth Elder crisply said.
“Junior martial uncle, it will take a day. It’s not good for us to just wait. How about we do some alchemy first?” The First Elder quickly picked up on what the Sect Master intended and swiftly took over the conversation.
Indeed, as soon as these words were spoken, the Sect Master bestowed an approving gaze!
Li Cheng was indifferent, shrugging as he said, “Okay, bring the medicinal materials!”
With the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod at hand, Li Cheng also wanted to try whether he could process multiple batches of materials at once.
Under normal circumstances, alchemy could only be done with one batch of materials at a time, but according to Li Cheng’s idea, one batch or ten, a hundred batches were just a matter of scaling up the quantity proportionally.
Having never read books on Alchemy Dao, Li Cheng wasn’t sure if it was feasible, but since the proportions of drug power and ingredients’ compatibility ratios remained the same for one or multiple batches, it should be possible.
Mu Xingzhi looked towards Seventh Peak, and sent a transmission saying, “Seventh Elder, send over the prepared Breakthrough Pill materials first. You can continue to gather more while junior martial uncle is refining.”
He had never expected his transmitted message to be heard by Li Cheng, as transmitting with Spiritual Sense essentially sends out Spiritual Consciousness Fluctuations, with the content hidden within those fluctuations, inaccessible without special means.
Li Cheng maintained a calm expression, continuing to pretend ignorance, to save everyone from embarrassment.
Soon, the Seventh Elder came flying with three storage rings, “Junior martial uncle, this is quite laborious for you!”
Li Cheng took the storage rings and began to inspect them.
The Seventh Elder’s expression became anxious; there were materials for two thousand batches of Spirit Transforming Dan within, and he didn’t know if the junior martial uncle would be enraged.
“Seventh Elder, how many batches have you gathered?” Mu Xingzhi transmitted his question.
“Exactly two thousand batches of Spirit Transforming Dan materials, Sect Master, will junior martial uncle be angry?” the Seventh Elder worried.
He still hoped to learn Pill Skill from the junior martial uncle, and offending him over this would mean losing more than he gained.
Mu Xingzhi, with an air of confidence, gave the Seventh Elder a comforting look, “You continue to prepare more Breakthrough Pill materials!”
“No, Sect Master, I haven’t yet witnessed junior martial uncle do alchemy. I can’t miss it!”
“I’ll let my disciples prepare it.”
After Li Cheng finished inspecting the storage ring, with a flip of his hand, the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod appeared in front of him, “Step back everyone, I’m about to begin!”
Seeing this semi-immortal artifact-level Pill Tripod, the Seventh Elder’s eyes widened in astonishment!
