Chapter 870: Chapter 723 The Ancestor’s Millennium Legacy_2

This array is a standard composite Great Array, composed of the Three Hundred and Sixty-six Star Immortal Array. It gathers the efforts of ten thousand monks and can obtain the power of creation, the origin of the Array Dao in the world.

Although this inheritance is incomplete, it is the core beginner’s Chapter. You can comprehend, evolve, and even collect various arrays to make sub-arrays, completing the aggregation, connection, and unification. Ultimately, the possibility of reconstructing the Great Array is not out of the question.

...

In the White Peach Courtyard, Lei Ting approached Wang Zijia by a couple of steps as he started to comprehend the Jade Disc directly.

Li Jianye and An Xingsheng saw this and remained motionless, silently waiting.

The damaged tortoise shell flickered with Spiritual Light, and the runes on it circulated, leaving Wang Zijia stunned in place.

"Crack!"

It was almost half a moment later when Wang Zijia came back to his senses amidst the sounds of cracking.

In front of him, the Jade Disc began to show cracks again, densely covering the entire disc as if it were going to shatter the next second.

It lasted for a moment before it ceased.

Now the Jade Disc was full of cracks, and its material had become a bit more turbid.

Wang Zijia carefully placed it back into the Jade Box and re-sealed it.

"Alright, you can return the item now," Wang Zijia said, feeling the information in his mind and speaking somewhat distractedly.

"There’s no rush, Patriarch," Li Jianye didn’t immediately reach out to take it but respectfully said:

"Patriarch, you may not be aware, but this item is similar to a combination of an inheritance magical tool and jade slips. It’s not just about obtaining the array inheritance."

"The Jade Disc also holds some special Dao Charm, and contact with it will help the Patriarch to quickly begin learning the Array Dao. You can keep it first, Patriarch, and once the initial comprehension of the Array Dao is less effective, then you can give it to your grandson to put away."

Wang Zijia waved his hand and said, "I am, after all, a Seventh Grade Heritage Master; I’m not so blind as to not see what this is about."

"But this thing isn’t of much help to me, and besides, it’s about to break. Don’t waste the last chance for comprehension because of that."

"As for cultivating with arrays, do I not have my methods?"

What a joke, with his cultivation as it was, if he really didn’t use any tricks and truly comprehended the Eighth Rank Array Dao earnestly, that would take months, wouldn’t it?

Not ten thousand years, perhaps, but still several thousand!

And then what? Start setting up arrays and creating magical artifacts endowed with Immortal Spirit afterward?

The opportunity would be long gone!

If that were the case, he might as well try to get Taiching Palace to help!

Upon hearing this, Li Jianye no longer insisted and honestly put away the Jade Box.

Wang Zijia watched his respectful demeanor pause for a moment and then asked, "How old are you?"

"Ah?" Li Jianye was momentarily baffled before tentatively asking, "Does the Patriarch ask about his disciple’s age?"

"What else do you think I’d be asking?" Wang Zijia said, exasperated.

Li Jianye was a bit embarrassed, mainly because it’s indeed been a long time since someone of thousands of years was asked this question.

"To answer the Patriarch, this disciple is now five thousand eight hundred years old and ascended to Crossing Tribulation over three thousand years ago," Li Jianye replied.

"Have you ever thought about becoming immortal?" Wang Zijia asked again.

Li Jianye stiffened, his eyes suddenly brightening for a moment before he subconsciously nodded and said, "Not just thought about it, I haven’t made any progress for over a thousand years, and I’ve even dreamt about it!"

"I’m asking if you’ve ever truly considered becoming immortal," Wang Zijia paused, then rephrased, "I mean, have you made any preparations for becoming immortal?"

Li Jianye cautiously asked, "Does the Patriarch mean... collecting Spiritual Object resources?"

"What else?" Wang Zijia asked back.

Li Jianye showed a bitter expression and said, "Patriarch, you might not be well aware of the situation in the Spirit Suppressing Realm. Although I also have some savings, Immortal Spirit objects are not so easy to come by. It’s not just a matter of money."

"Despite my disciple’s cultivation not advancing an inch over the past thousand years, I have thought of many methods, only to find a few auxiliary items that might be of some help in becoming immortal but I have not seen a single Immortal Spirit Object."

Wang Zijia nodded and said, "So you mean you have money? Then there’s no problem. Prepare more during this time. Once I am free, I will personally take a look at you tribulation crossing peak cultivators!"

Li Jianye suddenly looked up, and the next moment, with extreme excitement, he said, "Grandson thanks the Patriarch for his deep affection!"

"Alright, no need to put on a show of bloodline affection here. Where were you seven years ago?" Wang Zijia said indifferently.

Li Jianye choked on Wang Zijia’s straightforward words and hastily said, "Grandson, grandson is guilty... "

Wang Zijia, with a calm expression, interrupted Li Jianye’s performance once more and said indifferently:

"Enough, there’s no need to say more. I said I would take a look, and I will, no one who has the potential to become immortal will be suppressed. All four sects will be treated equally."

"At that time, you only need to pay the corresponding compensation for my assistance, hmm, in addition to that, you will need to help me refine something when the time comes."

"Grandson understands!" Li Jianye paused, not continuing to speak and simply responded respectfully, "Grandson will follow the Patriarch’s orders!"

"If there’s nothing else, you may leave," Wang Zijia said, indicating the end of the meeting.

Upon hearing this, Li Jianye paused and then said, "Grandson has something he wishes to inquire of the Patriarch."

"Speak," Wang Zijia said directly.

"Grandson has observed that apart from the Demon Suppression Sect spreading far and wide across Wanyu, all the major dynasties in the Mortal World are also building temples. In the center of every provincial city, there must be a statue of you, Patriarch."

At this point, Li Jianye glanced at Wang Zijia and, seeing that his expression was still without feeling, he continued:

"Grandson wants to ask, are you trying to gather great fortunes to let the Qi of human fate be bestowed upon you, or are you experimenting with incense?"

Wang Zijia looked at him with a smile that was not quite a smile and said, "What, do you think I’m touching upon forbidden divine matters? You want to interfere?"

"The Patriarch has misunderstood!" Li Jianye immediately said, "Grandson meant to say, if the Patriarch wishes to gather great fortunes, we of the Daqian Dragon Vein could merge into it to aid the Patriarch in attempting it."

"If it’s for other experiments, there are also many people in the one hundred and seventy-six provinces of Daqian."

"The Patriarch is also the Immortal Venerate of our Daqian Dynasty. Building temples and crafting Longevity Tablets, having each and every family worship daily, is something easily resolved, and everyone would gladly accept."

"The only thing is that the statue of the Patriarch is rather special; we cannot do it and would require you to do it yourself."

Wang Zijia turned back, taking a serious look at Li Jianye.

Truly a Tribulation Crossing Cultivator...

Once engaged in conversation, his cunning and brown-nosing actions are far more potent than those below him; when he makes a move, it’s very precise!

"You want to build a temple for me?" Wang Zijia asked with that same not-quite-smiling expression.

Li Jianye instantly grasped Wang Zijia’s attitude, and understanding the situation, immediately said with a smile:

"That wouldn’t be right; we in the Daqian are not like the ignorant mortals of Wanyu Ordinary, how could we curse our own Patriarch."

"However, constructing temples nationwide and having each family worship Longevity Tablets,fervently wishing for the Patriarch to succeed on the Immortal Path and to end at the same time as heaven and earth, that is something we can do."

Wang Zijia looked at Li Jianye, then suddenly shifted the conversation, saying, "At your age, you’re not still mucking about in the Daqian Court, right?"

"Oh no, disciples over three hundred years old rarely get involved in the affairs of the Mortal Court," Li Jianye said with a smile:

"However, I have been in charge of handling the daily special matters of the whole Daqian Dynasty and the affairs of monks for nearly four thousand years."

"No wonder!" Wang Zijia said somewhat cryptically.

Li Jianye’s smile grew even brighter, "Thank you for the praise, Patriarch. Shall grandson go take care of it then?"

Wang Zijia nodded and said, "Go ahead, don’t pay too much attention to formality, no need for large-scale construction. If you really want to do it, send disciples in cultivation to handle it."

Li Jianye paused, decoding Wang Zijia’s attitude, and said, "It is a blessing for the citizens of our Daqian to have the Patriarch."

"Hmm, you’re not bad at practical flattery, but you need to work on your verbal skills," Wang Zijia suddenly said with a laugh.

Li Jianye’s expression stiffened, then he quickly responded, "Thank you for the instruction, Patriarch. Grandson will take note."
