Chapter 455: All Laws Return to One: The Rebirth of the Array

Xu Feng personally participated in the monitoring of the Cores. One late night, when he was the only one left in the laboratory, the seven Cores suddenly glowed simultaneously, their light intertwining to form a miniature model of the universe. Xu Feng was astonished to discover that this model almost perfectly matched the "Seven Stars Return to Position" state predicted by astronomers.

"You are trying to tell me that everything is going according to plan, aren't you?" Xu Feng asked softly.

The light of the Cores flickered a few times, as if responding to his question, before returning to calm.

As the critical moment approaches, the Dream Network has become increasingly powerful. According to statistics, nearly one hundred million people have had a related dream at least once, and about twenty million of them are able to frequently enter this shared dream space. The information transmitted by Lin Xuan and Xiao Yuan is also becoming clearer; it is no longer just vague images and feelings, but has begun to include specific guidance.

"They are teaching people how to control and guide energy in their dreams," Professor Chen wrote in the latest research report, "Although these techniques are simple, if enough people apply them simultaneously, the cumulative effect will be astonishing. This is very likely preparation for the final Spiritual Body Reunion."

All of this has attracted widespread attention from global media. The "Collective Dream Phenomenon" has become a headline in major news, experts and scholars are scrambling to express their views, and social media is flooded with related discussions. Most people view it as a strange psychological phenomenon, and only a few realize the truth hidden behind it.

Within the cultivation world, this phenomenon is regarded as a major event. The leaders of the Five Great Cultivation Centers held an emergency meeting to discuss how to respond. In the end, they unanimously decided to fully support Xu Feng's plan, mobilizing global cultivation resources to prepare for the critical moment two months later.

"This is not just about the fate of Lin Xuan and Xiao Yuan," Yamada Ichiro of the Fuji Mountain Cultivation Center in Japan said at the meeting, "It is also an important moment for the evolution of human collective consciousness. If successful, it will build an unprecedented Bridge between the cultivation world and ordinary people."

Every night, Xu Feng sets aside time to try to establish a connection with the Dream Network through meditation. As one of the people closest to Lin Xuan and Xiao Yuan, he finds it easier than most to enter this shared space. In his dreams, he can feel the presence of Lin Xuan and Xiao Yuan; although he cannot clearly see their faces, that familiar aura cannot be mistaken.

"We are preparing everything," he said to the two blurry figures in his dream, "but I need to know, are you sure this plan will succeed?"

There was no verbal response, only a firm emotional fluctuation transmitted over, carrying incomparable confidence and determination. Xu Feng understood their answer—no matter how small the chance of success, it is worth a try, because this is the only opportunity.

As the day of the partial solar eclipse and the Seven Stars Return to Position draws near, global preparations have entered the final sprint stage. The Cultivation Science Headquarters has become the command center for the operation, and elites from all over the world have gathered here. The energy of the Mount Fuji Spiritual Vein has already been guided to the headquarters through special channels, and the "Lotus Life Mandala" Array brought by the Indian team is also in place.

Even more surprisingly, the scale of the "Lin Xuan Xiao Yuan Watchers" group has expanded to an astonishing five hundred million people, and they have promised to provide full support at the critical moment.

The Ganges Cultivation Center is located in a hidden valley in the upper reaches of the Ganges River. Far from the hustle and bustle and rich in Spirit Qi, it has been a holy land for high-level Indian Practitioners for thousands of years. The main hall in the center of the valley is solemn and majestic, and the ancient stone pillars are carved with exquisite statues and Runes, witnessing the birth of countless cultivation miracles.

At this moment, the atmosphere inside the main hall is solemn and tense. The team led by Master Lakshmi has been working for seventy-two hours straight, and not a single person has left. On the floor of the hall, a huge and complex geometric pattern is drawn, composed of countless precise lines, symbols, and energy nodes, with a blooming lotus pattern in the center, surrounded by various mysterious Runes. This is the legendary "Lotus Life Mandala" Array, a long-lost ancient technique said to be capable of creating a stable environment for Spiritual Body condensation.

Lakshmi is an old man nearing seventy, but his eyes are as sharp as an eagle's, his posture as upright as a pine, and his entire body radiates powerful and peaceful energy fluctuations. At this moment, he is standing in the center of the Array, carefully checking every detail.

"The energy node in the northwest corner still needs to be strengthened," he said in a deep voice, "Add seven auxiliary Runes to ensure that the energy flow is smoother."

Several young Yogis immediately took action, making adjustments according to the Master's instructions. This type of Array is extremely complex and requires 108 Yogis to maintain it simultaneously; any tiny mistake could cause the entire Array to collapse.

Vikram, Lakshmi's chief disciple, walked to his side and reported softly: "Master, Director Xu Feng of the Chinese Cultivation Science Headquarters has arrived and is waiting in the reception hall."

Lakshmi nodded: "Please bring him over; it is time to combine two kinds of traditional wisdom."

Before long, Xu Feng walked into the main hall under Vikram's guidance. Although he had heard about the complexity of the "Lotus Life Mandala," seeing it with his own eyes still left Xu Feng feeling shocked. The scale and precision of the Array far exceeded his imagination, and the entire pattern seemed to possess a beauty that transcended matter, making one unable to help but want to immerse oneself in it.

"Mr. Xu Feng, welcome to the Ganges Cultivation Center," Lakshmi greeted in fluent Mandarin, "Have you brought the energy sample of the Mount Fuji Spiritual Vein?"

Xu Feng bowed respectfully and took out a crystal-clear sphere from a special container he was carrying. Inside the sphere, light blue energy flowed, constantly changing its form as if it were a living thing.

"This is the purest Spiritual Vein energy," Xu Feng solemnly handed the sphere to Lakshmi, "We have already performed preliminary purification and stabilization, but it retains its original characteristics."

Lakshmi took the energy sphere with both hands and closed his eyes to feel the energy fluctuations within. A moment later, he opened his eyes, excitement flashing in them: "This is exactly what we need! The purity of the Fuji Spirit Vein energy far exceeds my expectations, and it has a natural affinity with our Array."

He led Xu Feng to the side of the Array, where a special experimental area had been set up. "Over the past few months, we have not only restored the ancient 'Lotus Life Mandala', but also attempted to combine it with the Chinese Five Elements theory."

Lakshmi pointed to five special nodes on the edge of the Array: "These are Energy Converters designed according to the principle of the Five Elements' mutual generation and restriction. In theory, they can achieve cyclic energy gain, significantly increasing the overall efficiency of the Array. But we have always lacked a suitable energy source for actual testing."
