Incredible Sect Simulator-Chapter 700 - 668 The 3rd Void Celestial Immortal Sword
"Next, it will just require my efforts alone."
Elder Jiang informed, beginning to arrange the array barrier.
She paused at the positions of the array banners, moved, and with a few hand signs, cast strands of array dao rhyme, engraving them into each array banner.
Don’t be fooled by how simple this step looks; actually, to perform a Tier Five array dao rhyme, one must first have the strength at the Crystallization Stage.
Moreover, this level of array dao rhyme, even if its principles were told to Lu Changfeng, even if he tried to mimic it, he wouldn’t be able to achieve it.
His understanding of array formations is far from comprehending the mysteries within.
The process of infusing the array dao rhyme continued for two days.
Only after over a thousand array banners were imbued with array dao rhyme was the array fully activated, invisibly forming a massive array barrier that enveloped the entire Cyan Lotus Mountain.
Of course, this array barrier purely affects Spiritual Qi and doesn’t interfere with the daily activities of Cyan Mountain Sect members.
It’s worth mentioning that, to guide Lu Changfeng in observing and learning, Elder Jiang specifically brought him to the side and even slowed down the array formation process so Lu Changfeng could see clearly and understand the underlying principles.
Under Elder Jiang’s patient guidance, Lu Changfeng studied intently, examining each step meticulously, not forgetting to take notes.
This mimicry and study session brought Lu Changfeng considerable gain.
This greatly benefits his study of array formations.
Apart from admiring Elder Jiang’s profound array expertise, Lu Changfeng already had the idea to apply what he learned, thinking to erect a Tier Three Spirit Gathering Array himself to enhance his array skills.
"All the array dao rhymes have been properly set. At this step, the Spirit Gathering Array is complete. After some time, the Spiritual Qi purity of Cyan Lotus Mountain will enhance."
"To upgrade the Cyan Lotus Mountain spiritual vein to a Tier Five level, all you need is patience."
Elder Jiang said, explaining some necessary precautions, and informed Lu Ping.
For instance, those array banners must be guarded. If any of them gets damaged or has issues, the entire array will be affected, and the array barrier will collapse.
This is not what Elder Jiang wishes to see.
"Alright."
Lu Ping nodded solemnly, then asked, "May I know how long it will take for the spiritual vein upgrade to be complete and reach Tier Five?"
Elder Jiang estimated for a bit and replied, "If all goes well, about three years."
"Three years..."
Lu Ping murmured to himself.
Three years is just a blink of an eye for a Golden Core Cultivator.
Recalling the expedition to the Void Heaven Secret Realm, it was also three years later.
If he successfully breaks through to the Nascent Soul Stage by then, the Cyan Lotus Mountain spiritual vein will have successfully upgraded.
Marvelous.
A Tier Five Spirit Gathering Array, just so, was set up, and all that’s left is waiting for the array to continuously gather the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi for the spirit vein level to improve.
Upon completing the array setup, Elder Jiang didn’t leave; instead, she stayed at the Cyan Lotus Mountain to observe the effectiveness of the Spirit Gathering Array.
During this period, Elder Jiang inquired about Lu Ping’s cultivation status.
Elder Jiang could naturally discern Lu Ping’s current cultivation level clearly.
Why Lu Ping set up the Tier Five Spirit Gathering Array was fathomable with a little thought from Elder Jiang.
She discussed with Lu Ping the matter of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage.
"Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage is extremely difficult. You attempted this level decades ago, yet haven’t succeeded. You know how challenging it is."
"Even I do not have absolute confidence in advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage and have been hesitant to act."
Though Elder Jiang’s tone was calm, akin to daily conversation, the sense of emotion couldn’t be concealed.
Lu Ping nodded subtly in agreement with her words.
Indeed.
Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, Crystallization, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Divinity Transformation...
The Nascent Soul Stage, as the fifth Great Realm on the path of cultivation, its cultivators are already the apex combat power in Lingxi State, a ceiling-level existence.
Even for Lu Ping, encountering Nascent Soul Cultivators means he should act with utmost caution, avoiding trouble whenever possible.
The Nascent Soul Stage isn’t something easily broken through.
Otherwise, an extensive Kingdom like Chu wouldn’t be lacking even a single Nascent Soul Cultivator now.
"Though the Nascent Soul Stage is difficult, if the right method is found, with fortunate opportunities assisting, breaking through isn’t an impossible task."
As she spoke, Elder Jiang flipped her jade hand, drawing a white jade-colored flying sword from the Storage Bag, which hovered in front of her.
"Regarding the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage, I have an opportunity for advancement to the Nascent Soul Stage that will be of great help to you..."
"Hmm?"
Before Elder Jiang could finish her sentence, upon seeing the white jade-colored flying sword she took out, Lu Ping’s expression changed, immediately captivated.
"Void Celestial Immortal Sword!"
Lu Ping almost blurted out, instantly recognizing the Void Celestial Immortal Sword.
"You actually recognize this sword?!"
Seeing Lu Ping quickly name the flying sword, as if he also owned it, Elder Jiang was mildly surprised.
This Void Celestial Immortal Sword was something she herself didn’t know much about earlier, including its uses.
Lu Ping’s experience and knowledge indeed seemed to surpass hers.
"Look."
Lu Ping didn’t explain further, subtly smiling as he flipped his palm, taking out his own Void Celestial Immortal Sword, which hovered in front of him.
As this white jade-colored small flying sword appeared, it immediately caught Elder Jiang’s attention.
"This is..."
Seeing Lu Ping’s Void Celestial Immortal Sword, Elder Jiang’s astonishment deepened.
"You also have a Void Celestial Immortal Sword!"
Seeing Lu Ping’s Void Celestial Immortal Sword was indeed beyond her expectations.
How many Void Celestial Immortal Swords are there?
Only nine!
Within this Chu Kingdom, to witness a third Void Celestial Immortal Sword in front of her is quite the coincidence.
"Just like yours, this sword is indeed a Void Celestial Immortal Sword."
Lu Ping smiled gently, "What a coincidence, I didn’t expect you to have one too."
The appearance of both Void Celestial Immortal Swords was as if they had a mutual attraction, converging together, surrounding each other, joyfully floating as if they found their companions.
Both were extremely curious about how they each obtained the Void Celestial Immortal Sword.
On Lu Ping’s side, he explained the backstory of the Void Celestial Immortal Sword, mentioning that he got it from the Blood Demon Sect Leader, leaving nothing out for Elder Jiang.
Learning of the situation, Elder Jiang finally understood.
"I see."
"It seems that the venture into Qi Kingdom was not only an opportunity for your Cyan Mountain Sect but also yours personally."
Elder Jiang commented thusly.
Cleaning out the Blood Demon Sect and Cyan Mountain Sect acquiring some of its remnants was something Lu Ping casually mentioned to Elder Jiang; there was nothing to hide.
By being willing to take out the Void Celestial Immortal Sword, Elder Jiang demonstrated her high level of trust in Lu Ping.
In her mind, if Lu Ping needed it, she would have been willing to give him her Void Celestial Immortal Sword.
She was willing to share the opportunity with Lu Ping because she saw him intending to upgrade the Cyan Lotus Mountain spirit vein and prepare to breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage.
She owns two Void Celestial Immortal Swords.
