Chapter 512: Array Arrangement

Seeing that both of them had performed well during this period, he suddenly thought that he still had twelve Spirit-Shocking Cicadas left in his spirit beast bag, all half-starved.

These were specially prepared for Hu Yunna and Zhao Mingxia to successfully blood-bind the Spirit-Shocking Cicadas.

A month ago, they had already successfully blood-bound them, and the rest were all here; now it was just right to take them out to reward them.

So he said to them, "Not bad, you have both done very well during this period, and I am relatively satisfied!

So I plan to fulfill the promise I made to you at the time, gifting each of you six first-grade Spirit-Shocking Cicadas.

I hope you will cultivate them well and let them all advance to the second grade; if used well, this will be an important protective means for you!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Meiniang and Zhao Liyu were so excited they almost jumped up; they were truly too excited!

Only they, who were in contact with these spirit insects every day, could deeply realize the power of these Spirit-Shocking Cicadas; the two of them didn't even dare to get too close to that purple bamboo forest.

Unexpectedly, today, the master was actually so generous, willing to gift six to each of them.

It was four more than the two promised at the beginning, which simply made them too happy and excited!

If they didn't know that the master didn't have that intention, they would have wanted to take the initiative to serve him to repay Lin Zhangqing well! At this time, Xu Meiniang respectfully said to Lin Zhangqing, "Thank you, Master, for the reward! This subordinate will definitely cultivate them well in the future! I guarantee I will not tarnish the master's prestige!"

Zhao Liyu also said, "Thank you, Master, for the reward! This subordinate is the same! I guarantee that in the future, I will definitely go all out to complete any task the master orders, even if I have to die, I will not refuse!"

Lin Zhangqing nodded and said, "Alright! I understand your meaning! I only require you to cultivate well and help me take good care of the inner space; that is the best reward for me! Now, prepare to blood-bind the Spirit-Shocking Cicadas first!"

After speaking, Lin Zhangqing took out the contract array improved by Chen Zi Ya last time from his storage bag! He placed it in front of the two and took out the jade slip of the insect cultivator inheritance, letting them read the part about blood-binding spirit insects carefully!

After confirming that both had finished reading, he said to Xu Meiniang, "You come first!"

Xu Meiniang nodded excitedly, and afterward, both of them completed the blood-binding of six Spirit-Shocking Cicadas with Lin Zhangqing's help!

After Xu Meiniang and Zhao Liyu completed the blood-binding, the first thing they did was to get spirit peach juice to feed them!

He also shared the feeding insights of the Spirit-Shocking Cicadas with them and let the two copy the insect cultivator inheritance themselves; after both had finished,

Lin Zhangqing continued, "I have some array disks on hand; let's arrange them today!

The focus is on the small courtyard and the purple bamboo forest; let's arrange second-grade arrays there! As for other places, if there is a need, you can also take them to arrange!"

Hearing Lin Zhangqing say this, Xu Meiniang and Zhao Liyu looked at each other.

Then Xu Meiniang said, "Master, this subordinate thinks that the purple bamboo forest indeed needs to be isolated with an array! To prevent the spirit insects inside from flying out! As for the small courtyard, just change it to a second-grade defensive array! Other places are not needed!

After all, the three-colored deer still need to go in to take care of and promote the growth of spirit medicines and spirit plants normally; using an array to isolate it would be inconvenient instead!"

Zhao Liyu also said, "This subordinate also thinks Meiniang is right!

However, I think there is another place in the inner space that also needs an array to isolate it.

That is the deep pit in the very center of the space; it is truly too dangerous there, so it is safer to use an array to isolate and shield it!"

Lin Zhangqing heard this; in this way, only three arrays needed to be arranged in total, so wouldn't there be many array disks left unused! However, the inner space was mainly taken care of by the two of them, so listening to them was definitely right, so he said, "Then do as you wish! When the time comes, if there are extra array disks, just put them in the storage room; if the space needs them in the future, you can take them and use them directly!"

Hearing that Lin Zhangqing accepted their opinions, both felt very happy in their hearts, so they hurriedly agreed!

Afterward, the three began to work together to arrange second-grade defensive arrays, the Black Tortoise Protecting Mountain Array, for the small courtyard and the deep pit. As for the purple bamboo forest, because it was mainly to prevent the Spirit-Shocking Cicadas from flying out, they arranged a second-grade trapping array, the Small Five Elements Reversal Array!

Fearing that there might be spirit beasts or spirit bees that didn't know the situation and would break in in the future, after the three discussed it, they arranged a defensive array outside.

In this way, the unstable factors in the inner space were controlled, and Lin Zhangqing didn't have to worry that one day, the Spirit-Shocking Cicadas would suddenly go crazy and riot!

He went to the beehive, made a portion of Spirit-Nurturing Pill into water for the Queen Bee, and then took away the hundred-year spirit peaches and spirit peach wine produced during this period!

When he left Jihui Mountain, he left most of the spirit peaches and spirit peach wine on his body to Chen Zi Ya, as well as some resources needed to cultivate the Purple Crystal Scorpions.

He only kept a little for himself to maintain his cultivation, but now that he had supplemented a portion, he didn't have to worry about his cultivation resources being interrupted.

After confirming there were no problems here, Lin Zhangqing exited the inner space and returned to the room in the inn!

He made himself a pot of Green Jade Tea and tasted it slowly; he still felt very unaccustomed to suddenly leaving Chen Zi Ya! No one to make tea for him, no one to whisper in his ear, no one to cultivate the "Yin-Yang Harmony Sutra" with him—he truly wasn't used to it!

Fortunately, his self-control was still very strong; after finishing a pot of spirit tea, he threw away the messy thoughts and began the cultivation of the Thunder True Scripture!

Early the next morning, after completing the basic cultivation of the "Five Elements Chaos Sutra," he left the inn! However, the target was not the street stall square here, but the tallest and most obvious building in Dong'an Market—the Wanbao Pavilion! Because according to past experience, it was still too early to go to the street stall square now, and he was still missing quite a few thunder-attribute spiritual artifacts.

And the spirit crystals needed by the second-grade Purple Crystal Scorpions were also basically almost exhausted, so he decided to go to the Wanbao Pavilion first! When he arrived at the Wanbao Pavilion and just stepped into the door, a young female cultivator greeted him and said, "Welcome, Senior, to the Wanbao Pavilion, please come to the third floor for tea!"

Lin Zhangqing nodded, and afterward, he followed behind this Qi Refining stage female cultivator.

The two came to a private room on the third floor; just after sitting down, a maid served two cups of spirit tea! (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 513 =====
