Chapter 885 Bottlenecks and Distresses
The array plate and array flag of the eighth-level killing array are much simpler than the array plate of the All-Seeing Formation in terms of structure, and it is relatively simpler to refine.
Of course, the array plate of the killing array is also very different from the general array plate. The power they can exert depends on the power of the killing array that the refiner practices in the array plate, which integrates different kinds of magical skills.
Because it is a killing array, each kind of killing power is related to the magical power of the refiner. Wu Yan is good at many magical powers, but the only one that can be used in the eighth-level killing array is the Dayan Zhuxian Sword Formation. The rest of the magical powers are either not suitable or not powerful enough.
The array plate of the All-Seeing Formation has its own complete offensive and defensive system. As long as the array plate and array flag are refined according to the method recorded in the record, and then the array is arranged in the corresponding order, there will be no problem. However, the killing array is different. Its attack power directly depends on the power of the magical power comprehended by the refiner.
If the power of a magical power can only reach the level of the Void Refining Stage at most, then the power of the killing array disk can only reach the level of level 6 at most, which is the limit of this killing array.
Of course, according to the level of this killing array, it belongs to the eighth level. Once the array disk of this killing array is successfully refined, the power of the Great Evolution Immortal Sword Array that the entire killing array can exert will also be directly upgraded to the Mahayana stage under the support of the spirit crystal.
Unfortunately, this is only the power of the ideal state that exists in theory. In fact, the power that a real level 8 array can exert is at most equivalent to the level of the middle and late stages of the Void Refining Stage.
The array is dead and cannot be flexible like a cultivator. Therefore, many magical powers that were originally very powerful are difficult to exert their original level. What's more, there are many magical powers that are also limited by the realm and cannot exert much power.
Even so, Wu Yan felt that the killing array of the level 8 Great Evolution Immortal Sword Array was enough to deal with a Void Refining Stage cultivator like Hua Yuanhai. He was very confident in the power of the Great Evolution Immortal Sword Array.
Wu Yan took out five materials of different attributes, controlled the hellfire, and began to smelt them.
The array plates required for this killing array are similar to those of ordinary arrays, and six array plates are needed as the array base of the array. Five of these array plates need to be refined with five eight-level materials of different attributes, so that each array plate of different attributes can be integrated with a sword intent of different attributes, and then the five array plates can stimulate the power of the Great Evolution Immortal Sword Array.
The sixth killing array is the central hub of the entire Great Evolution Immortal Sword Array, responsible for the flexible operation of the entire killing array, and the most challenging achievement.
The quality of the refining of the sixth killing array will directly determine the power that the entire Great Evolution Immortal Sword Array can exert.
It is relatively easy to refine the first five arrays. Wu Yan only took five days to successfully refine them. He integrated all the five different sword arts and sword intentions he had comprehended into these five arrays.
On the sixth day, he began to refine the sixth and most difficult array, the Killing Array. However, what he did not expect was that the refining of the sixth Killing Array was much more difficult than the previous five.
Although he used the Yuan Yan Jue to repeatedly and precisely deduce it, he still encountered failures one after another. After five consecutive days, he did not succeed in refining a Killing Array.
This made Wu Yan fall into an indescribable depression. He knew that he had finally encountered a bottleneck in the way of array.
In the past, he refined arrays and array flags directly according to the notes left by Xuan Yazi, and then refined them through the deduction of the Yuan Yan Jue. He did not need to add much of his own thoughts to it, so it was quite easy to refine, which also made his progress in the way of arrays show a state of rapid progress without bottlenecks.
But through the refining of this killing array, Wu Yan finally realized a terrible problem that was ignored.
For a long time, because he relied too much on the record experience left by Xuan Yazi, he did not think deeply about what the real array was.
To put it bluntly, he had not yet comprehended his own way in the way of array. He was completely dependent on what others left behind.
When he realized this problem, Wu Yan finally stopped refining the sixth killing array, and the whole person was in the cave spirit realm, falling into reflection on the cultivation of the way of array.
Without comprehending his own way of array, he would stop at the ninth level of the spirit array in the way of array, and it would be difficult for him to truly cross the barrier between the spirit array and the fairy array in his lifetime. Even if he could get a more comprehensive method of refining the fairy array in the future, he would not be able to learn it.
This is the crux of the problem, and he was not allowed to escape.
…
In the Demon God Hall, Lang Xian looked solemn, and looking at the gloomy expression on his face, he seemed to be troubled by something.
Fei Changkong, the elder of the Spiritual Array Side Hall, was sitting opposite him at the moment, his expression was not very good, both distressed and shocked.
"You mean, even with the special pass token made by our sect, we can't enter the magic array on the Holy Maiden Peak?" Lang Xian asked Fei Changkong in a deep voice.
Fei Changkong nodded and said: "That's right. Sect Master, according to your instructions, I sealed the magic circle of Saintess Peak the day before yesterday and temporarily placed Hu Ruyan under house arrest. However, today, I inspected the side hall of the spiritual array. I went to various magic circles, but found that there was something wrong with the magic circle on the Saintess' Peak. Neither the defensive magic circle nor the surveillance magic circle could work properly. I even went to the Saintess' Peak to check it several times and found that no matter how I used it, I found that there was something wrong with the magic circle. No kind of pass token can enter the Virgin Peak.”
"Do you think something went wrong during the ban, or someone tampered with the magic circle?" Lang Xian frowned.
Fei Changkong smiled bitterly and said: "It's hard to say. However, I feel that the possibility of being tampered with is unlikely. After all, our sect's mountain-protecting formation was personally refined by Master Dugu Jingqiu and has six levels of peak power. 'Tiangang Disha Demon Gathering Array'. This array has a total of 108 main peaks and auxiliary peaks on 108 different peaks combined to form a large array covering the entire Tianyao Mountain. The power of the array is protected by the entire 'Tiangang Earth Evil Demon Gathering Array'. I am afraid that no one in the entire Lingxu Land can tamper with the array refined by Master Dugu Jingqiu."
"In other words, what accident happened when activating the magic circle to seal off the Saintess' Peak, which caused this problem?" Lang Xian frowned, "Is there a solution? There are only three days left, but This is a big day for our sect to hold a grand event for the inheritance of the Holy Maiden. At that time, all the sects and families in the Lingxu Land will come to watch the ceremony. Do you want to become the laughing stock of the entire Lingxu Land?"
Apart from smiling bitterly, Fei Changkong really didn't know what to do at this time. As a sixth-level formation master, he naturally knew what the consequences would be if he encountered this situation. However, he had no way to activate the magic circle on Saintess Peak.
"Hey, what is this?" Looking at Fei Changkong's helpless expression, Lang Xian also knew very well that if Fei Changkong really had his way, he wouldn't stand here and talk to him about this matter.
"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have roped this demon girl into the Demon God Sect. She is really a disaster." Lang Xian patted the armrest on the throne in frustration, and then said: "Luo Tian has already given an ultimatum. If this happens at the grand meeting, We couldn't persuade Hu Ruyan to marry before the ceremony. I'm afraid that Luo Tian's anger alone is not something our Demon God Sect can bear. What's more, Hua Yuanhai is still missing after all this time. Feng’s news, is this really God’s plan to destroy our Demon God Sect?”
"Sect Master, if it really doesn't work, why don't I go to Lingxu City and ask Master Dugu Jingqiu to try it? After all, he refined this magic circle, and it can only exert its greatest power in his hands. Maybe he You can easily break the seal of the Saintess Peak, and you can also use the 'Tiangang Earth Demon Gathering Array' to find Hua Qingfeng's location. I feel that even if Hua Qingfeng is really hijacked, the person who hijacked him is definitely the same. There is no way to escape from the coverage of my Tianyao Mountain formation." After Fei Changkong thought for a moment, he made a feasible suggestion to Lang Xian.
Lang Xian sighed deeply and said, "That's all we have to do. Junior Brother Fei, take my token and go to the inner treasury to collect one hundred thousand mid-grade spiritual crystals, two pieces of second-order ferocious beast materials, twenty drops of stone lake cold Ye, go to Lingxu City in person and invite Master Dugu Jingqiu to our Demon God Sect within one day. By the way, just use this 'Red Cloud Shuttle' to leave from the teleportation array. It's too troublesome and also dangerous. It seems so disrespectful to Master Dugu.”
With that said, Lang Xian turned his palm and took out a golden token and a red shining spindle-shaped spiritual treasure from the storage ring, and handed them to Fei Changkong.
Fei Changkong carefully took the treasure, and then the golden token, and said with great joy: "Don't worry, Sect Master, I promise to invite Master Dugu within one day!"
"Go ahead and be careful along the way." Lang Xian waved his hand feebly.
Fei Changkong bowed and then left the Demon God Hall in high spirits, flying towards the inner treasury at the back of Tianyao Mountain.
"Could it be that I really want to take that step? This land of Lingxu is really not a place for humans. It seems that it is indeed time to make a choice." Lang Xian looked at the empty Demon God Hall, his expression full of emotion. Depression. With his level, he could have entered the fairy world a long time ago, but because of Lingxu City, he has been unable to leave the Lingxu land and ascend to the fairy world.
Lang Xian heard from some sources that in Lingxu City, there was an extremely mysterious Lingxu Monument suppressing it, so that even if the monks in the entire Lingxu land had reached a level where they could ascend, they could not successfully break through the boundary. Ascend to the fairy world.
Unless someone can successfully take away the Lingxu Monument, this phenomenon of ascension of monks in the entire Lingxu land, which is like a curse, will continue to exist.
Of course, if you have the ability, you can also choose to take the void passage, enter the void star field, take a void spaceship, and find the void crack passage that can enter the fairy world. It is a pity that the only person with such financial resources and abilities in the entire Lingxu Land is Yang Shan, the city lord of Lingxu City.
However, Yang Shan seems to have enemies in the fairy world. It is said that he will never leave the land of Lingxu until he reaches the advanced stage of integration. He was unwilling to leave, so the monks in the entire Lingxu Land naturally had no chance to leave the Lingxu Land and go to the Fairy World through the void passage.
