Chapter 31: Array Dao Enters the Hall
"Come!"
After muttering, Lin Fan's mind moved, and he directly took out the broken branch of the spirit root from the small world.
After looking at it a few times, Lin Fan didn't hesitate and directly began to refine it.
Melting, shaping, endowing, and forming were done in one go.
With previous experience, it took only over an hour for him to successfully refine a carving knife.
After doing all this, Lin Fan didn't hesitate, directly picked up the carving knife, aimed at the spirit stone on the side, and began to draw. Array patterns were depicted inside, and the laws of the arrays were connected together.
"Dust-Free Array, condense!"
"Clear Wind Array, condense!"
"Gathering Spirit Array, condense!"
"..."
Operation after operation, array cores carrying arrays fell into the area in front of Lin Fan.
However, except for a small number of spirit stones that were successfully depicted and could operate, most of the spirit stones were shattered and turned into powder.
Lin Fan didn't care about this.
For the next hundred-plus years, he closed his doors and didn't go out, finally consuming all the spirit stones.
Over 1,200 middle-grade innate spiritual treasures, except for a small number that were formed, the rest all turned into powder.
Roughly calculating, Lin Fan found that about 200 array cores were completed, and besides that, the rest had all failed, and the spiritual power within those spirit stones had also dissipated.
However, Lin Fan didn't care about all this.
After more than 1,000 attempts and more than 200 successes, his cultivation of Array Dao was directly promoted from entry-level to the stage of entering the hall.
According to this trend, he could now mobilize ordinary arrays at will.
Next, he could completely try to activate, fuse, and even use these array cores in combination.
However, most of these array cores were for daily life, and Lin Fan didn't expect them to exert any value.
Activating the array cores suitable for the Dust-Free Array, Lin Fan directly placed them in his cave dwelling.
In an instant, the cave dwelling, which had been dusty, began to become clean rapidly.
The clear wind blew, array after array was activated, and the entire cave dwelling became brand new in just a few breaths.
Although the appearance was still the same, the cleanliness had reached a mirror-like effect.
"Very good!"
Looking at the brand-new cave dwelling environment, Lin Fan nodded with satisfaction.
Immediately after, his gaze gathered on the remaining fifteen array cores in his hand.
These fifteen array cores were the last ones Lin Fan depicted, and they were also the ones he could depict after his array reached the stage of entering the hall.
They were the Three Talents Array, Four Symbols Array, and Five Elements Array!
These were arrays that combined offense and defense, and if used properly, they could also cause huge lethality.
"Unfortunately, I don't know anything about artifact refining!"
"Even the simplest magic tool is not something I can refine now."
"Without supporting artifact refining techniques, artifact refining skills, and artifact refining hand seals, the things produced are ultimately ordinary goods!"
Speaking of this, Lin Fan glanced at the carving knife in his hand.
It is not difficult to refine simple materials into tools; the difficulty lies in the lack of inheritance, lack of techniques, and lack of information about artifact patterns.
However, after just a moment, Lin Fan calmed down.
Although there was no inheritance of artifact refining or alchemy.
But his cultivation of array formations had truly entered the door, and even reached a not-weak level.
According to the records of the Array Dao Collection given by Wudang.
Array formations are divided into: Entry, Entering the Hall, Small Success, Great Accomplishment, Perfection.
He had now crossed the entry stage and reached the level of entering the hall; ordinary arrays had no difficulty for him.
However, it was a pity that this was only a primary Array Dao Collection, which only recorded the information content of the Three Talents Array, Four Symbols Array, and Five Elements Array, and the rest of the array information was not recorded at all.
If he wanted to continue to improve, he needed to obtain subsequent inheritance information, and also needed more materials.
But these spirit stones had been consumed by him, and there was no possibility of continuing to cultivate Array Dao in the short term.
"Forget it, let's leave Array Dao like this for now!"
"The next time should be cultivation, and improving cultivation as soon as possible is the right path."
Taking a deep breath, Lin Fan made up his mind and didn't hesitate, directly sitting down and starting to operate the Shangqing Art to cultivate.
……
Day after day, year after year.
In the blink of an eye, three thousand years passed.
"Junior Brother Lin Fan!"
"Junior Brother Lin Fan!"
On this day, Yuyixian's call came from the outside world, interrupting Lin Fan's cultivation.
"Yuyixian, why is he here again?"
Opening his eyes, a trace of surprise flashed in Lin Fan's eyes.
At this moment, his cultivation had reached a bottleneck, and he was only a little bit away from advancing to the middle stage of the Mysterious Immortal Realm.
However, because of Yuyixian's arrival, he had to stop his cultivation.
After taking a deep breath, Lin Fan walked out of the cave dwelling with doubts.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Yuyixian."
Seeing Yuyixian, Lin Fan walked up to greet him.
He didn't hide anything and asked the doubt in his heart directly: "I don't know why Senior Brother came here this time?"
"Nothing."
Laughing, Yuyixian didn't talk nonsense, directly took out a Qiankun bag, and threw it to Lin Fan: "My brother asked me to send this to you."
"I heard that Junior Brother Lin Fan has been cultivating Array Dao recently, and it just so happens that there are some materials in here that we don't need!"
"By the way, my brother also said that if Junior Brother has time, you can go to his residence to gather."
After doing all this, Yuyixian didn't intend to stay.
He knew that it was impossible for Lin Fan to join his Neutral Faction, and the fact that Lin Fan belonged to the Wudang lineage had already spread throughout Golden Turtle Island.
Although he did not quite understand why Kong Xuan would do such a thing, he still chose to comply, though he felt even more puzzled.
"Senior Brother Yuyixian, take care!"
Seeing this situation, Lin Fan subconsciously called out.
Not until Yuyixian's figure disappeared did he frown and look at the Qiankun Bag in his hand.
He had not expected that Kong Xuan would actually send him array formation materials.
Moreover, several thousand years had passed since he last met him; for Yuyixian to deliver them only now showed that the matter was not simple.
However, surprise was surprise.
Lin Fan did not refuse, nor did he have any intention of pushing it away.
Casually tucking the Qiankun Bag into his pocket, Lin Fan did not return to his cave dwelling, but instead rode a cloud and sped toward Biyou Palace.
After another three thousand years, he also needed to go and collect his share.
Based on the situation of this retreat, he believed that after returning and retreating for another period, he would be able to reach the mid-stage of the True Immortal Realm.
