Chapter 465: Selling to Multiple Families

"The second is the application of Spirit Arrays."

Spirit Arrays?

"It is difficult to satisfy the requirement of rapidly compressing Spirit Power to possess sufficient explosive force through conventional means; therefore, adopting Spirit Arrays is the best choice."

Holy crap, this requirement is a bit excessive!

Under normal circumstances, it is no problem for a Spirit Array Master's true combat power to exceed their own cultivation level by one major realm; those who can keep their Spirit Power cultivation and Spirit Array methods advancing in tandem are, after all, only a minority.

Since that is the case, the demand for this secret technique among Spirit Array Masters is not particularly high, but those who need this secret technique are unable to learn or master it; coupled with the lack of Spirit Power cultivation among Spirit Array Masters, and combining this with the first condition...

This is a "high-end gadget" that can only be mastered by a few top-tier "dual-wielding" geniuses!

"If one wants to compress Spirit Power, should having sufficiently strong Spirit Power control also work?"

At this moment, the Spirit King proposed another idea, causing a gleam to flash in everyone's eyes.

"No, that is impossible."

The one who spoke in opposition was Tianmu Elder, who sat at the head of the table. He frowned and said:

"To instantly compress Spirit Power to the degree required to break through the Heavenly Sovereign major realm, such Spirit Power control could only be barely achieved by at least a Saint Grade Heavenly Sovereign."

As a Saint Grade veteran, Tianmu Elder's authority was naturally unquestioned, and this path was clearly also blocked.

"I wonder what level of Spirit Array cultivation is required to achieve this step?"

There were still those who were unwilling to give up; Xiao Han's secret technique was simply too tempting, and even if it were lethal poison, they would not want to let go of even the slightest chance.

"This requirement is not very high; it probably only needs one to reach the level of a Human Grade Spirit Array Master."

There is such a good thing?

Everyone's spirits lifted.

"Is what young friend Xiao Han says true?" Tianmu Elder also could not help but ask seriously.

Originally, they had just asked casually while holding the attitude of treating a dead horse as a living one, never expecting that Xiao Han would actually have a surprise to offer.

A Human Grade Spirit Array Master is merely equivalent to a First to Third Grade Supreme; to the big shots present, this was not a matter at all.

Except for a very small number of unlucky ones who had no talent for Spirit Arrays at all, relying on the resources at their disposal, they could easily churn out countless Human Grade Spirit Array Masters, and they, these old folks, could also put their remaining energy to use and take up Spirit Array Master as a minor subject.

"That is natural."

Xiao Han's words were firm. This secret technique was something he had stumbled upon and tinkered with back when he was still at the Dou Zong level. Although he had started studying arrays at that time, his achievements in the Dao of Arrays were clearly not very high.

"This is the Array Diagram I researched to go along with the secret technique; Senior can appraise it."

As he spoke, Xiao Han rummaged through his storage ring for a long while before finally pulling out a blue Scroll from an inconspicuous corner, casually dispelling the Prohibition on it, and handing it to Tianmu Elder.

Tianmu Elder did not decline either. Although he was not a Spirit Array Master, he still had the eye for appraising an Array Diagram.

Just after opening it and taking a casual glance, Tianmu Elder felt settled in his heart, secretly thinking that it was stable, this round...

The advantage is with me!

For no other reason than that the Array Diagram above was simply too simple; even a layman like him could understand most of it.

Although the symbols were a bit unfamiliar, this was only because the heritage from the lower plane Xiao Han came from was different; it only needed to be improved according to the Spirit Arrays of the Great Thousand World.

"I wonder if young friend Xiao Han could help improve it?"

Tianmu Elder raised the Scroll in his hand toward Xiao Han, and the latter readily agreed.

"I wonder if there are any other requirements?"

Xiao Han thought for a moment,

"The others are just minor details; you only need to remember to try not to act alone when using it."

"Not allowed to act alone? What does this mean?" Tianmu Elder's face showed confusion at the right time.

"Because after using the secret technique to amplify combat, the whole person will be in a near-death state. If there is no outsider to intervene and rescue in time, one cannot even take a Medicinal Pill to heal, and can only wait for death."

Xiao Han's tone was very serious because he knew the consequences. Since this secret technique appeared in the world, he had only used it twice, and without exception, he had walked through the gates of hell both times.

Perhaps because Xiao Han's tone was too serious, the hall suddenly fell into silence.

After a long time, Tianmu Elder finally spoke with a chuckle, breaking the silence,

"No matter, it is just a near-death experience and a drop in cultivation; just be more careful in the future. It is better than losing one's life, isn't it?"

"Yes, yes..."

These words led everyone to agree. Compared to dying in resentment, this consequence was already quite satisfactory.

"No, this junior needs to correct a statement made by Senior Tianmu."

At this moment, Xiao Han "obliviously" jumped out to stir up trouble.

Then his attitude shifted, and he said with a smile:

"This is not a drop in cultivation, but a sealing of cultivation."

·······

Everyone present was a smart person, so they could naturally hear the implication in Xiao Han's words, but some still asked with uncertainty: "Young friend Xiao Han means..."

"This cultivation does not need to be actively cultivated and can return automatically?"

"Exactly."

"The recovery time needs to be determined based on the sealed cultivation, but it is ultimately a bit faster than your usual cultivation."

······

Silence.

Three breaths later.

"Young friend Xiao Han, this old man has a Spirit Grade Peerless Sacred Object spear here; are you interested?"

"Move aside, is what young friend Xiao Han needs a Peerless Sacred Object? Young friend, this old man has three Immortal Grade Array Diagrams here; I wonder if you have any interest?"

"Young friend, this old man has..."

For a time, the old men who originally possessed an immortal air tore off their masks, arguing until their faces were red and their necks were thick with old friends they usually got along well with. Even though they had life-and-death friendships, they refused to give an inch, and the meeting hall turned into a vegetable market.

Everyone realized the value of this secret technique of Xiao Han's; perhaps they no longer had much of a chance, but with the influence and resources in their hands, they could completely cultivate a few secret weapons.

It was merely a resource of the top twenty divine fire grade; this thing was not unique, and by scouring the Da Qian, one could always find it.

If that failed, they could go in groups to visit the homes of these "kind-hearted" people from the Fire Spirit Clan; would they really be unable to obtain it?

By then...

Hehehe!

Watching this scene, Xiao Han could not help but twitch his eyelids.

If he had a choice, he did not wish for his secret technique to ever have a time when it would be useful.

"Alright, stop for now."

Seeming unaccustomed to the noisy appearance of the crowd, Tianmu Elder finally spoke; his aged, low voice instantly extinguished the noise into nothingness, and seeing the displeasure and seriousness in the elder's tone, everyone sat obediently, with the posture of listening attentively.

"Little friend, if your secret technique is paired with the Array Diagram, would the Great Thousand Palace purchasing it for one hundred thousand Demon Slayer Points be acceptable?"

This sudden change in Tianmu Elder's style caught Xiao Han off guard, and while others marveled at the Great Thousand Palace's grand gesture, they also secretly thought the other party was not playing by the rules, bullying a young comrade of theirs who was only a few thousand years old.

However, Xiao Han began to think carefully; one hundred thousand Demon Slayer Points was indeed a terrifying number, equivalent to ten Heavenly Demon Emperors, twenty Mysterious Demon Emperors, or over thirty Ghost Demon Emperors.

Not to mention that an Imperial is not some pig or sheep waiting to be slaughtered, which could be easily killed.

In non-wartime, it was enough to account for several decades or a century of his accumulated merit.

"Little friend may also trade with others again; you only need to provide one copy of this secret technique to the Great Thousand Palace."

Perhaps sensing Xiao Han's hesitation, Tianmu Elder added a sentence.

Hah!

Everyone, including Xiao Han, was stunned; this was blatantly allowing Xiao Han to sell to multiple parties!

Xiao Han did perceive Tianmu Elder's intention; perhaps it was precisely out of concern that this highly valuable secret technique would be monopolized by the major forces that he paid such a huge price for the trade.

Furthermore, it could better stimulate the enthusiasm of other powerhouses to resist the Outer Realm Evil Clan, killing two birds with one stone.

"Then I shall respectfully decline your modesty and accept."
