Cultivation System: Stronger with Age-Chapter 615 - 282: The Powerful Eighth Layer Array
The large Steward Hall, normally lively and bustling as many disciples came to accept and submit tasks, suddenly quieted the moment Lin Xuankong appeared. Every disciple and Earth Immortal of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect looked at Lin Xuankong not just with respect, but also with a sense of closeness and pride!
Over the past two years, the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect’s position in the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region had become indisputably that of the First Immortal Sect! This was partly because the various Immortal Sects in the Western Region had to visit the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect monthly to pay tribute, showing utmost respect to its numerous Earth Immortals and disciples. More significantly, Lin Xuankong had provided a total of one hundred and eight Immortal Artifacts to the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect in these two years: one hundred Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts and eight First-grade Immortal Artifacts!
That was over a hundred Immortal Artifacts. With so many, the strength of the entire Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, even without considering Lin Xuankong’s Buddha-Calling Jade Talisman, had reached a level that every other Immortal Sect in the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region had to look up to!
Every Earth Immortal of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect had enjoyed this benefit. Nowadays, each of the sect’s over thirty Earth Immortals carried at least one Immortal Artifact. Sect Leader Li, the three Grand Elders Sui He, Qing He, and Cang He, the two Vice Sect Leaders, Medicine Immortal Qu Wan’Er, and Spiritual Crane Fairy Qu Qiao’Er each owned a First-grade Immortal Artifact!
Moreover, it wasn’t just the numerous Earth Immortals of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect who enjoyed the tremendous benefits brought by Lin Xuankong; even the ten genius disciples of the sect, due to their contributions, gained the opportunity to carry Immortal Artifacts! This spurred the tens of thousands of disciples and Immortal Servants of the entire Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect to cultivate with frenzied diligence and feverishly accept and complete tasks. As a result, the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect displayed a vitality it hadn’t witnessed in tens of thousands of years!
An opportunity to carry Immortal Artifacts—how could disciples in the Transcendence Realm have ever been afforded such an opportunity before? Not to mention the Immortal Sects of the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region; even considering all Immortal Sects in the East, West, South, North, and Central Five Domains of the entire Central Divine Dynasty, it was extremely rare for a Transcendence Realm disciple to have the chance to carry an Immortal Artifact!
All these changes were brought by this ’Artifact Refining Master,’ Lin Xuankong. How could the numerous Earth Immortals and disciples of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect not respect and revere him!
At this moment, Grand Chief Steward Huang Liutao, standing in the crowd, looked at Lin Xuankong and cupped his hands respectfully, "Tributor Mu seems to be in a good mood today. Have you made some progress in researching our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect’s arrays recently?"
Lin Xuankong nodded slightly, "I’ve made some progress! The Thousand-Change Array passed down from our sect’s Ancestor Li is indeed extremely profound and formidable!"
Seeing Lin Xuankong say this, a trace of pride appeared on Huang Liutao’s face as he smiled, "Naturally. Our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect’s Ancestor Li, among the many founding Immortal Masters of the Central Divine Dynasty, might not have had the best cultivation, but in the field of array formation, he excelled by integrating the array formation methods of dozens of Array Masters in the Central Divine Dynasty!
"In the realm of array formation, Ancestor Li of our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect was one of the four great Array Masters of the Central Divine Dynasty back then! The array formation method he deduced was reputed to be capable of setting up the Thousand-Change Array, which could contend against Ninth-Grade Earth Immortals!"
Lin Xuankong nodded slightly again, "The Thousand-Change Array contains so many profound mysteries that thousands of words cannot describe them!
"I spent a full two years to basically master all the array formation secret manuals left by Ancestor Li!"
A look of astonishment flashed in Huang Liutao’s eyes, "Tributor Mu, you’ve mastered all the array formation secret manuals? That’s hundreds of thousands of Jade Scrolls! The one most proficient in array methods within our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Spiritual Crane Fairy Qu Qiao’Er, spent a full five hundred years to basically grasp the profundities of those array methods back then!
"Because of this, Spiritual Crane Fairy Qu Qiao’Er was able to repair several damaged array hubs of the Sect Protection Array in these past two years, and thus mastered the methods to set up Third-Grade Arrays!
"If Tributor Mu has already basically mastered those array methods, doesn’t that mean you can now also set up Third-Grade Arrays?"
Third-Grade Arrays?
Lin Xuankong immersed his heart spirit into his mind. At that moment, a message suddenly appeared: 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
[Thousand-Change Array: Seventh Layer 17,798/18,000]
Over the past two years, with the looming threat of the Profound Yin Demon Sect and the approach of the Eight Great Demon Generals towards the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region, Lin Xuankong had seized every moment to enhance his strength. In addition to cultivating the Thousand Cranes Technique and various other cultivation techniques, he had continually researched the Thousand-Change Array left by Ancestor Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, elevating it to the Seventh Layer!
This level of the Thousand-Change Array could already be used to set up an array capable of withstanding the attacks of Seventh-Grade Earth Immortals! This might sound somewhat unbelievable, seemingly surpassing Ancestor Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect.
In truth, that wasn’t the case. If Ancestor Li had possessed enough Immortal Artifacts to form the array hubs, the Sect Protection Array he set up could indeed have reached the level of resisting Ninth-Grade Earth Immortals!
Regrettably, before his fall, Ancestor Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect had only acquired two Immortal Artifacts. Due to these limited conditions, the array Ancestor Li formed using thirty-six Tier Nine Spiritual Artifacts could only withstand the attacks of Sixth-Grade Earth Immortals and summon an Illusory Spirit Crane comparable to a Sixth-Grade Earth Immortal for powerful attacks and self-destructive energy.
But Lin Xuankong was different! Two years ago, he already possessed over a hundred Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts. He certainly wouldn’t lack the Immortal Artifacts needed to form powerful array hubs!
Especially now, after two years of accumulation and Miss Xiao’s two years of refining, the number of Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts in his hands had reached a terrifying figure!
These many Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts were actually just the byproducts Miss Xiao refined while researching Middle to High-Grade Immortal Artifacts. If all these byproducts—these Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts—were used to form array hubs, who knew how many Seventh-Grade Thousand-Change Arrays could be set up!
But what excited Lin Xuankong most at the moment was the prospect that if he could continue researching the Thousand-Change Array and elevate it to the Eighth Layer, he could then set up Sect Protection Arrays capable of withstanding the attacks of Eighth-Grade Earth Immortals!
That way, as long as he used thirty-six Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts to set up such an Eighth-Layer Sect Protection Array, even if an Eighth-Grade Demon General of the Profound Yin Demon Sect attacked, he could mount a strong defense!
Thinking of this, Lin Xuankong walked out of the Steward Hall while focusing his heart spirit on Jiang Huanglong of the Spirit Cauldron Immortal Sect, tens of thousands of miles away.
Elevating the array to the Eighth Layer will take about twenty to thirty days, and setting up the array will also require some time. Whether I have enough time depends on the current position of the Demon Generals of the Profound Yin Demon Sect!
