Baby with Daoist Monarch System-Chapter 368 - 127: Transforming Earth Vein into a Divine Artifact?
Upon confirmation, Xu Ran was excited: "In that case, can I perhaps inscribe array runes on the roots of your Flowers of the Earth Veins to enhance the speed at which you emit spiritual qi, or perhaps bestow upon you other abilities?"
"Ah! Is that even possible?" the blue-clad girl exclaimed in shock.
At that moment, three more blue figures appeared beside the two.
Seeing these three figures, the blue-clad girl immediately rushed into their embrace, affectionately calling, "Sisters!"
The blue figure referred to as Sister patted her on the head: "The little girl from back then has grown up and even found a way to save us!"
"Grown up now, you can’t keep crying all the time!"
The blue-clad girl lifted her head, wiping away her tears: "I wasn’t crying at all!"
Xu Ran also surmised that these three figures were the three Flowers of the Earth Veins he had just purified.
At this moment, the blue figure turned to Xu Ran: "Thank you for saving our lives!"
With that, she gave him a deep bow.
Xu Ran waved his hand: "Saving the Flowers of the Earth Veins is equivalent to saving humanity; it’s hardly a life-saving grace."
The blue figure spoke: "While that’s true, saving us from the pollution is an undeniable fact. Regardless of your intentions, we must thank you."
Xu Ran replied: "In that case, could you answer the question I just asked?"
The blue figure pondered for a moment, then said: "We never considered inscribing rune arrays on ourselves, but your description of us as a kind of relay station isn’t entirely inaccurate."
Another blue figure curiously remarked: "Inscribing an array, that sounds pretty impressive."
Xu Ran added: "If we could indeed inscribe an array, turning the Flowers of the Earth Veins into array carriers, then the rich spiritual qi you emit combined with the array’s power could easily tear through divine-grade creatures, and it could even be mobile."
As Xu Ran spoke, he became more excited: "In fact, if all the Flowers of the Earth Veins were inscribed with arrays, they could connect all the arrays through your intricate network, forming a larger array!"
The four Flowers of the Earth Veins present were all left agape by Xu Ran’s description.
The blue-clad girl said, "That’s truly a genius idea."
The other three Flowers of the Earth Veins echoed in amazement.
"How did you come up with such a solution?"
"It’s no wonder you’re the genius who can inscribe purification arrays; your thought process is extraordinary!"
"If this idea really works, then we Flowers of the Earth Veins will have a means of self-preservation!"
The Flowers of the Earth Veins, ever since their inception, have been the coveted assistance for cultivators.
They never had any attack capabilities themselves and hadn’t considered it before.
Otherwise, during the time when the three great planets were polluting the Flowers of the Earth Veins, they wouldn’t have been so defenseless.
Reflecting on this, the Flower of the Earth Veins, referred to as Sister by the blue-clad girl, stepped forward.
"Since you have such an idea, let’s do it; use my body for the experiment!"
The blue-clad girl exclaimed, "Sister..."
The other two Flowers of the Earth Veins also stepped forward.
"If the experiment fails, we can be the subjects too!"
They did this as a way to repay Xu Ran for his purification grace.
The blue-clad girl widened her eyes, looking at Xu Ran: "You’ll succeed, right?"
Seeing the group so ready to sacrifice, Xu Ran was caught between laughter and tears.
"No need to rush; I’ll experiment on my own first and only inscribe it on you once I succeed!"
Currently, Xu Ran had reached the state of being Skilled in Enlightenment, capable of conducting complex experiments in his mind, including arrays.
The blue-clad girl said, "I see! I believe in you. With your intelligence, you’re sure to succeed."
Xu Ran nodded: "Of course, I possess the Miracle Root Bone."
Saying this, Xu Ran focused his attention, gathering his thoughts and insights; the previously conceptualized arrays appeared in his mind.
One hour later.
Xu Ran opened his eyes: "To link the intricate network of the Flowers of the Earth Veins, one needs to understand the essence of the Flowers of the Earth Veins."
"The essence? The essence?"
Xu Ran’s eyes sparkled: "The essence is spiritual qi; arrays must be used to link the spiritual qi of different carriers, forming a Spiritual Qi Domain."
As he spoke.
Xu Ran experienced enlightenment!
Simultaneously, his mind outlined one array after another, with different arrays linking together through the Spiritual Qi Domain, gradually forming an array resembling the Bagua diagram.
"I found it!" Xu Ran excitedly exclaimed.
Under the gaze of the few blue figures, Xu Ran’s eyes gleamed with golden light, then, with hands moving with fluid grace, he sketched one wondrous array after another in the air.
Quickly, one completed array after another appeared in the air.
"Xu Ran is only ten, right? To have such a capacity for enlightenment at ten, truly genius."
"No wonder he’s the genius who inscribed the purification array; to create a new array in just half an hour!"
"Remarkable, giving us a means of self-preservation!"
Amidst the praises of his companions, Xu Ran completed the final stroke of the array.
"I’ve done it, I’ve done it!"
He then turned to the four blue figures: "Thanks to my genius ingenuity and enlightenment ability, the most suitable array for you Flowers of the Earth Veins is complete!"
The Flowers of the Earth Veins, though lacking combat power before, had experiences unrivaled by many others.
They could immediately tell whether an array was functional.
"Go ahead!" the three blue figures echoed in unison.
With a grand wave from Xu Ran, three arrays landed upon the three Flowers of the Earth Veins.
Instantly, a wondrous aura emerged from them, and simultaneously, the spiritual qi surrounding them became even denser.
"Hmm, I can sense three streams circulating within me, each harmonious without conflict!"
"Moreover, I can freely control the spiritual qi, directing it toward the array’s core."
"I can feel the terrifying power contained within the array, enough to destroy a divine-grade creature."
The joyful revelations from the Flowers of the Earth Veins signified the success of Xu Ran’s array.
This accomplishment granted the previously defenseless Flowers of the Earth Veins the ability to confront divine-grade creatures, with only the cost of allowing Xu Ran to inscribe arrays upon them.
What a worthwhile trade!
The blue-clad girl also realized Xu Ran’s success with the array, "If the Flowers of the Earth Veins had such power during the invasion by the three great planets, we wouldn’t have ended up in slumber."
The blue sister gently touched her head: "With Xu Ran here, other Flowers of the Earth Veins will soon awaken, and by then, Flowers of the Earth Veins will bloom in every corner of the Blue Star, standing alongside humans to fend off external threats."
While they basked in their joy, sounds of gathering divine-grade creatures echoed from outside.
Xu Ran sensed the situation: "The divine-grade creatures stationed here have arrived."
At this point, the Flowers of the Earth Veins were no longer the defenseless beings they used to be, allowing themselves to be taken advantage of
Moreover, they recalled the previous invasion and the grievance of being polluted.
"This time, let us test Xu Ran’s array in actual battle!"
The three Flowers of the Earth Veins brimmed with combat fervor, showing no signs of their recent awakening.
Xu Ran nodded: "Outside, there are about five divine-grade creatures, each with a Qi Blood Value of around 2000; the array’s power will take care of them easily!"
With that, he brought the blue-clad girl, used his Invisibility Skill, and retreated, leaving the battlefield to the Flowers of the Earth Veins.
Soon, five divine-grade creatures entered the space brimming with spiritual qi.
As they entered, layers of black barriers arose around them.
The lead divine-grade creature remarked: "The poison here is incredibly dense, but fortunately, the Supreme has given us relics to resist it."
At the same time, they noticed the blooming Flowers of the Earth Veins.
"Indeed, the Flowers of the Earth Veins have been purified; otherwise, so much poison wouldn’t be present!"
Relying on the black barriers, the five divine-grade creatures approached the Flowers of the Earth Veins.
Instantly, the surrounding spiritual qi formed a vortex above the Flowers of the Earth Veins, funneling into their bodies.
Subsequently, the Flowers of the Earth Veins radiated bursts of golden light, combined with a fearsome presence, leaving the five divine-grade creatures breathless.
"What... what is this?"
