Chapter 394: Chapter 244: Spirit Sword Complete! Thunder Spirit Root_2

"It truly is a triple blessing."

Li Qian’s face showed a hint of a smile.

Not only that, but the refining progress of the Chen Bell has reached over ninety-three thousand days.

In just twenty more years, the Chen Bell can be upgraded.

This is what he looks forward to the most.

Once the Chen Bell is upgraded, how much benefit could he gain?

Over the years, his Divine Aperture Treasure Opening Technique had cultivated six more Spirit Gods.

This was mainly because the progress of the original three Divine Aperture Spirit Gods reached 49 and could not advance any further.

It was as if they were stuck.

He speculated that at the Return to Void state, one could only reach a progress of 49, and to go further, one would have to truly ascend to the Upper Realm.

So he turned to cultivate other divine apertures.

These six divine apertures are also known as the Six Residences of the Azure Dragon, which have an astonishing amplifying effect on the attack power of the Divine Firmament Nine Swords.

Moreover, the Qianyuan Array Manual has finally reached twelve foundations.

In previous years, he utilized the power of the Chen Bell Domain to gradually wear down the restrictions in the jade scroll, obtaining a twelve foundation array formation—the Twelve Du Tian Formation Scripture.

According to the jade scroll, this array formation book originates from the Dutian Array Sect in the Longevity Realm.

This sect has existed for countless millennia, and its array formation technique is considered the pinnacle of the Longevity Realm.

Moreover, the Dutian Array Sect upholds the philosophy of inclusivity, accepting disciples of all races, including the Human Clan, Demon Race, Barbarian Clan, and others, as long as they have sufficient talent in array formations.

This has led to a widespread distribution of Dutian Array Sect’s array heritage.

The array master Xin Lin whom he dealt with last time was also originally from the Dutian Array Sect, but even with Xin Lin’s array formation skill, he was just an ordinary disciple in the sect.

According to Xin Lin’s records, the true foundational array canon of the Dutian Array Sect is called the Dutian Ancestor Array, and it is rumored to have been deduced to a terrifying sixteen foundations.

Reaching a mastery of thirteen foundations grants the ability to set up transmission arrays.

If one reaches fourteen foundations, the transmission arrays can enable inter-realm teleportation.

For traveling between the Longevity Realm and the Human World... fourteen foundations are necessary.

As for fifteen and sixteen foundation transmission arrays, how powerful they must be is unknown.

However, the ultimate goal of the Dutian Array Sect is to deduce a transmission array capable of reaching the Upper Realm, allowing everyone to ascend..... As for how many foundations are required, that is unknown.

"If I have the chance in the future, I definitely want to visit the Dutian Array Sect."

Li Qian thought to himself.

It’s said that the Dutian Array Sect also allows array masters to join... as long as they pass the corresponding array formation assessments.

However, to join the Dutian Array Sect, he would have to leave the Chen Bell Domain for a long time... which made him hesitant.

But if he wants to reach a higher level, the Dutian Array Sect is his best option.

"Forget it, I’ll decide after my array formation reaches the twelve foundation limit."

Li Qian thought to himself.

At the present stage, the array formation books left by Xin Lin can still satisfy his array research and cultivation.

A few months later.

Li Qian hovered above Yiling Town.

He suddenly waved his hand, and mysterious solid array piles appeared, a total of twelve.

However, each one was extremely large.

As a twelve foundation array master, he can now integrate various base arrays, so the entire massive twelve foundation array could be completed with just twelve solid array piles.

Of course, the number of base arrays integrated into each solid array pile was immense.

When he was still an eleven foundation array master, he couldn’t achieve such a high degree of integration, and it would have taken more than ten times the number of solid array piles to complete it.

Although the number of solid array piles seemed fewer, it actually enhanced the stability of the array, reducing array operation vulnerabilities.

Li Qian smiled, and under his control, the twelve solid array piles plummeted into twelve positions in Yiling Town.

The whole process was seamless.

Even the top-level Great Saints in Yiling Town didn’t notice a thing.

At his level, along with the presence of the Chen Bell Domain, blocking out any disturbance was effortless.

After the twelve foundation array was activated and run correctly, it seemed like nothing had changed, but in fact, the space in Yiling Town experienced subtle influences.

All entities entering the array’s space would be marked by the formation.

If Li Qian wished, those marked would be affected by the array, facing various restrictions.

"Yiling Town is secured, next is the Divine Sword Sect’s turn."

Li Qian smiled faintly.

The twelve foundation array in Yiling Town isn’t absolutely safe.

After all, the Dutian Array Sect was able to deduce Dutian Ancestor Array to a sixteen foundations level, so they at least have fifteen foundation array masters.

By comparison, as a twelve foundation array master, he was nothing.

In the next moment, his figure moved and vanished.

The Human World.

Divine Sword Sect.

Li Qian’s figure appeared.

Over the years, he seldom returned to the Divine Sword Sect.

After all, the Human World is quite stable. With the Dao Sect as a backbone, the Divine Sword Sect’s development speed needs no further mention; its influence has already begun to spread throughout the entire Chang Country.

Except for leaving guarding personnel at the Stepping Cloud Peak, almost all experts of the Dao Sect have withdrawn.

Therefore, this also caused the Divine Sword Sect to dominate within the borders of Chang Country.

Especially since the Divine Sword Sect produced Yang Lian, this Martial Saint level expert, plus over a dozen Heavenly Phenomenon level Celestials, making the Divine Sword Sect the actual overlord of Chang Country.

"They are all stuck at the bottleneck of top-level Heavenly Phenomenon Celestials."

Li Qian shook his head.

Regarding this, he also felt helpless.

He could only pin his hopes on the upgrade of the Chen Bell.

Suddenly, Li Qian looked at the Cloud Dragon Avatar.

After centuries of cultivation, this avatar has now reached the top-level Wild Beast rank, its body length even larger than the organism that birthed it.

A massive physique hidden among the clouds, unless a Supreme Saint arrives personally, it is impossible to detect the presence of such a gigantic Wild Beast.

In fact, the White Fox Avatar has also reached the top-level Supreme Saint rank.

Yet it cannot break through to the Longevity Secret Realm.

This is directly related to his main body still being in the Longevity Secret Realm.

Unless he ascends to a higher level.

But this is simply impossible.

This means his two major avatars can at most reach the top-level Supreme Saint tier.

However, for the time being, that’s sufficient.

His two major avatars stationed within the Chen Bell Domain can substitute for him in mobilizing the power of the Chen Bell Domain.

Thus, Li Qian began setting up the Twelve Foundation Array on the land of the Divine Sword Sect.

The entire process was completed quietly.

Without disturbing anyone.

No, someone did notice something amiss.

It was Li Qian’s disciple, Lin Qi.

As Li Qian’s sole Array disciple, he had been learning for over a hundred and eighty years, with cultivation barely reaching the Celestial level, and that consumed a vast amount of cultivation resources.

However, his array formation skill was quite decent, reaching the limit of the Eight Base stage.

But to step into the realm of the Nine Base, with his aptitude and comprehension, it is extremely, extremely difficult.

Of course, an Eight Base Array Master is considered quite excellent in the Human World.

The highest level in the Martial Alliance Array Sect is a Ten Base Array Master.

Even the Array Masters of the Dao Sect are just Eight Base.

"What’s going on, the array formation fluctuations of the Sect seem to be abnormal?"

Lin Qi was studying the arrays, suddenly lifted his head, showing a look of surprise.

But upon using his mind sense, he did not find any abnormality.

It seemed as if the abnormality he sensed just now was merely an illusion.

At this moment, a figure landed in the Array Valley.

It was Li Qian.

Seeing the master arriving, Lin Qi quickly stood up to salute, "Greetings, Master."

"I have upgraded the Mountain Protection Array of the Divine Sword Sect to the Twelve Foundation Array. Here is the control command flag, one primary and twelve auxiliary, along with the Great Formation Jade Scroll. Explore them thoroughly by yourself."

With a wave of his hand, Li Qian sent out a jade scroll and thirteen array flags flying out.

"Yes, Master."

Lin Qi promptly replied.

Only then did he understand that the array fluctuation abnormality earlier wasn’t an illusion but was because Master upgraded the Mountain Protection Array.

A Twelve Foundation Array.

This signifies that Master’s array formation skill had already reached a frightening Twelve Foundation degree.

Such an array formation skill, probably unprecedented and unmatched in the history of the Human Clan, right?

"Master, my array formation skill has been stuck at the Eight Base and can’t break through; do you have any methods?"

Lin Qi couldn’t help but ask.

These years, Master was as elusive as a dragon; he rarely saw him.

This time finally having a chance to meet, he certainly had to ask for advice.

"Wait a bit longer."

Li Qian said indifferently.

Lin Qi’s problem wasn’t a lack of foundation, but a matter of talent.

Unless external forces intervene.

He could only wait for Chen Bell to upgrade.

Perhaps it could solve Lin Qi’s talent issue.

It was the same for Lin Qi and other disciples and followers of Wuxin Peak and many people in the Divine Sword Sect.
