Chapter 612: 196 Promotion to Elder, Guarding Duty_1
Su Yu had received the legacy of the Fourth-rank Inferior Mountain Gate Array from Taoist Tianyu long ago. He had seen Taoist Tianyu set it up several times, and although he had not practiced it himself yet, with a few more attempts, he would eventually master it.
Su Yu stood atop the Purple Jade Peak, sensing the topography of the spirit vein. The surrounding peaks formed a circle, with one mountain standing tall among them.
“The Mountain Gate Array can be arranged as a Thirty-Six Heavenly Star array, gathering the topography of the entire spirit vein on the Purple Jade Peak. In this way, the entire spirit vein can support the operation of the Mountain Gate Array without requiring any additional spirit stones.”
“On the Purple Jade Peak, a Gathering Heavenly Star array can be set up to gather the power of all the heavenly stars. When I place one hundred and eighty Third-rank Superior Arrays on the mountain, there won’t be a shortage of energy to activate the formations.”
“I can also ask my master for a few Fourth-rank Superior Array Flags….”
Su Yu muttered his ideas one by one under his breath, a relaxed smile appearing on his face. “In this way, even if a Nascent Soul Realm master wants to break in, they’ll have to pay their respects first.”
The spirit vein of the Purple Jade Sect is still lacking a bit.
If it was a Fourth-rank spirit vein, it would be much better; he wouldn’t have to worry about the spirit power in the spirit vein being insufficient to support the array.
Thinking of this, Su Yu couldn’t help but think of the Hundred Flower Sect.
The Fourth-rank Spiritual Veins Cave Sky in the Hundred Flower Sect was a little enticing to him.
“Set a small goal. Within one hundred years, move this nest to the Fourth-rank Cave Sky of the Hundred Flower Sect.” After Su Yu had thoroughly explored the spirit veins of the Purple Jade Sect, he began to take out the materials for the construction of the array bases.
He began refining the array bases himself and then started modifying the original Mountain Gate Array of the Purple Jade Sect.
While transforming the Purple Jade Sect’s residence, Su Yu also had to juggle the Yunxiao Elixir Pavilion in the Black Market City of the Ten Monarch Immortal City.
Fortunately.
After breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he had gained some understanding of the Time Dao. With the power of the Time Dao, he could spend at least one third of his time each day on alchemy or constructing array bases.
With the increase in his cultivation and strength, his speed of refining Third-rank elixirs had also increased. Refining one furnace of Third-rank Superior Elixir didn’t even take an hour.
In one day, he could easily produce the elixirs needed for sale in the Yunxiao Elixir Pavilion and the five trading companies such as the Earth Ridge Commercial Association.
Time flew by in a flash.
Two more years had passed.
Every day, he was engaged in daily cultivation, alchemy, and formation construction. With his constant shuttling between these tasks, besides going back to the Black Market to deliver elixirs, Su Yu mostly stayed on Purple Jade Peak.
On this day, as Su Yu adjusted the position of the array base once again, he took a deep breath and his Divine Sense shifted.
“Buzz!”
In an instant.
The entire Purple Jade Sect’s spirit vein began to shake. The Mountain Gate Array that covered an area of thirty li and was sixty li in diameter was successfully activated. Layers of clouds rose and enveloped the entire Purple Jade Mountain Range.
Thirty-six Spiritual Mountains served as the array base, with almost all the power of the spirit vein converging on the central Purple Jade Peak.
Standing at the top of the Purple Jade Peak, Su Yu instantly felt a surge of spiritual energy gathering on the Purple Jade Peak as the Thirty-Six Heavenly Star Array of the Mountain Gate successfully activated.
Under the influence of this large array, the spiritual energy in other places drastically decreased, but the concentration of spiritual energy on the Purple Jade Peak was almost comparable to a Fourth-rank spirit vein.
If a sect had many disciples and elders that needed to cultivate, naturally, this wouldn’t be done.
But now, inside the entire Purple Jade Sect’s residence, there was only Su Yu.
The number of people here in the future won’t be large either.
Having just one Purple Jade Peak as a cultivation residence is already enough.
Feeling the operation of the Fourth-rank Inferior Mountain Gate Array and the Thirty-Six Heavenly Star Array, Su Yu felt a sense of satisfaction. After two whole years and tens of thousands of adjustments to the array, the array bases had exploded thousands of times.
He had finally successfully set up a Fourth-rank Inferior Array!
And it was the most complex and largest type of Mountain Gate Array.
This was equivalent to an Array within Arrays, or a Combined Array.
Compared with ordinary Fourth-rank Inferior Arrays, the complexity and difficulty had increased by at least a hundred times.
“The array has been set up. Now we just need to wait for the collection of materials for the teleportation array”, Su Yu thought to himself. “As for the Array Masters—”
He could maybe enlist the Five-rank Array Master from the Star Plucking Tower?
Asking Ma Shiqing for help, he believed that, as long as the reward was sufficient, hiring a Five-rank Array Master from the Star Plucking Tower would not be difficult.
After all, the Star Plucking Tower’s main business is to set up arrays for people.
In the subsequent month, Su Yu returned to the Celestial Mansion once to fetch two thousand Sky Thunder Rats and resettled them in the Purple Jade Peak residence.
The number of Sky Thunder Rats had grown to almost five thousand, due to some weaker ones being driven out of the Celestial Mansion, allowing them to establish themselves outside the Celestial Mansion.
Among the Sky Thunder Rat monster group that Su Yu relocated to the Purple Jade Peak residence, there were over six hundred second-rank Sky Thunder Rats.
There were also three Third-rank Sky Thunder Rats.
Although all of them were only at the Third-rank Inferior level, Su Yu still kept the Sky Thunder Rat Demon King. With the Sky Thunder Rat Demon King leading the monster group at the Purple Jade Peak residence as gatekeepers, it was sufficient.
The war with the Demon Clan in the Heavenly Demon Sacred Forest gradually ended, the Demon Clan retreated to the wilderness, and the dangerous territories that originally belonged to the Demon Clan were flattened by the Human Clan.
However, after the battle in the Heavenly Demon Sacred Forest ended, conflicts arose among the different powers in the Human Clan, as they fought for the resources inside. Almost every day, there was a major battle.
On this day, just as Su Yu had returned to the Ten Monarch Immortal City from the Purple Jade Sect residence, he saw a group of Nascent Soul True Monarchs and disciples from the Yu Long Palace arriving through the teleportation array. A cold, murderous aura hung in the air as they streamed out of the Ten Monarch Immortal City, headed in the direction of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Forest.
