Chapter 1283 - Chapter 1283 Chapter 843 The Great Battle Begins_2

Chapter 1283: Chapter 843: The Great Battle Begins_2 Chapter 1283: Chapter 843: The Great Battle Begins_2 And when that time came,

no matter the gains He Song made here, they would no longer be known to outsiders.

With this in mind, there actually were some benefits for He Song to continue his study of the Array Skills before him.

At least, he no longer needed to worry about someone finding this place.

Holding onto this thought, He Song, after his initial joy, quickly immersed himself once more in the study of the Array Skills before him.

However,

with continuous speculation over the years,

He Song had formed some conjectures about the various effects of the Array Skills before him.

Although He Song was still just speculating on the part of the Array Skills that included the concealment effect,

based on He Song’s many years of insight into array tao,

the Concealment Array before him was not just about concealment.

At the very least, within this Great Array, there was also a defensive power.

However, since He Song’s current understanding of this Array Skills was still only on a superficial level,

he, therefore, did not know whether this array possessed the capabilities for attack and the spirit-gathering effect.

As an Array Path Master who had spent many years delving into array tao,

He Song actually had a deep understanding of Array Skills.

And there were great differences among various Array Skills.

Arrays that specialized in one aspect usually only had one layer.

Like the Earth-Concealing Divine Light Array, which He Song had mastered, and some other arrays specializing in a single aspect.

These Arrays had only one effect.

Although the intensity of that effect might be greater.

Yet, they had no other effects,

and hence, could only be considered one-layer Arrays.

Among these Arrays, those with two effects

were two-layer Arrays.

These Arrays either had concealment and defensive power or they possessed offensive and spirit-gathering effects.

Array Skills with two effects like these naturally formed two distinct structures within.

One layer external,

and one layer internal.

These Arrays, although less powerful for each individual effect compared to Arrays that specialized in one,

were valuable for having two different structures, which could complement and enhance each other, achieving a sum greater than its parts.

Beyond one and two layers,

there certainly existed other Array Skills with multiple layers.

For example, the Celestial God Thunder Array that He Song had mastered, possessed a total of four layers and, likewise, four effects.

Attack, defense, spirit gathering, concealment.

These four layers enabled the Celestial God Thunder Array to have four effects simultaneously.

But they also made its complexity far surpass that of ordinary Array Skills.

He Song had spent a relatively long time delving into the Celestial God Thunder Array back then.

Under such circumstances,

although He Song had now discovered that the Great Array before him had both concealment and defensive capabilities,

He Song was still unclear about how many layers the Great Array had.

Did it possess four layers like the Celestial God Thunder Array?

Or was it merely two?

Concealment and defense were the effects that any Array Skills would manifest at the outermost layer.

Concealment was naturally displayed on the outermost layer of an array because only thus could everything within the array be fully concealed, escaping detection by others.

Then, after concealment, came defense.

If an array had only defense, that effect would also be on the outermost layer.

Because only then could the defensive power of the array be maximized.

However, if an array possessed both defensive and concealment effects,

then the defensive power within that array would inevitably be on the second layer.

The first layer was the concealment effect, which could prevent detection by others.

The second layer was the defensive power, which was needed to block the attacks of those who detected the array.

As for the third and the fourth layers,

naturally, other effects would emerge.

Yet,

He Song, as of now, had yet to comprehend the third level of this Array Skills, merely touching the edge of the second level; he had only discovered the second effect of this array.

To fully understand this array meant how many layers it actually had,

He Song would need to continue his daily deep contemplation.

And the mysterious veil of this array

would gradually begin to peel away with He Song’s day-after-day comprehension.

But, even if this array was just a two-layered array,

it could still bring considerable assistance to He Song.

Although it seemed at the moment that the array had yet to display any offensive capabilities,

solely relying on the concealment and defensive abilities He Song had discovered now,

it was likely that after fully understanding it, he could stand undefeated before any Gold Core Cultivator.

Even Meng Guan, when facing such a powerful array equipped with both concealment and defensive abilities, would probably find it quite impossible to break through.

After all, He Song’s cultivation had reached Golden Elixir Great Perfection.

The mana within his body might not be as vast as the sea of smoke, but it was more than enough to sustain the array without interruption.

Furthermore, the number of spirit stones in He Song’s storage bag was also quite substantial.

Under such circumstances, even someone as powerful as Meng Guan would likely find it very difficult to break through this array.

It should be known.

He Song could not yet confirm whether this array was among the powerful arrays within the Golden Elixir Array, or if it was a true Nascent Soul Grand Array.

But its defensive power was probably much stronger than the Earth-Concealing Divine Light Array, which He Song had mastered and which specialized in defense.

Even relying solely on the Earth-Concealing Divine Light Array, the possibility of fending off Meng Guan’s attacks was not beyond the realm of possibility.

Thus, with these circumstances, the array before He Song was naturally even more potent.

Moreover, even if He Song traveled outside in the future,

an array that could conceal him and also provided astonishing defensive power would be of immense assistance.

At the very least,

if He Song truly managed to thoroughly comprehend the array before him, there was no need to worry about scenarios from which he could not escape.

Because as long as he set up the array and placed a Teleportation Array within it,

with the defense of the array, he would almost certainly be able to hold out until he stepped into the Teleportation Array and departed.

Thus, even if this array only provided defense and concealment, it would still be of great help to He Song.

With such thoughts in mind,

He Song continued to delve into the comprehension of the array before him.

However,

as He Song’s comprehension continued,

the outside world’s time was also slipping away.

And it was on a certain day during He Song’s seclusive cultivation,

that he received a transmission from Meng Guan.

According to what Meng Guan said,

the Three Righteous Sects had already engaged in a major battle with the Three Demonic Sects.

In this battle, the number of participating Golden Elixir Masters from both sides kept increasing, and towards the end, both sides had reached the scale of dozens of Golden Elixir Masters.

Such a scale, even if placed within any of the Nascent Soul Upper Sects, could be considered extremely formidable.

Apart from being unable to slay the Ancestor Yuanying within the Nascent Soul Upper Sects,

these dozens of Gold Core Cultivators could probably wipe out all the Gold Core Cultivators in any one of the Nascent Soul Upper Sects.

Such power could not be mustered by a single Nascent Soul Upper Sect alone.

It could only arise under the backdrop of the combined efforts of the Six Great Nascent Soul Upper Sects.

However, although there were many Gold Core participants in this battle,

the actual casualties were not large.

As described by Meng Guan, even though there were many participants, most did not directly engage in combat.

Instead, there was a greater sense of mutual deterrence.

Nevertheless, even so,

the emergence of this battle also indicated that the great war between the Three Demonic Sects and the Three Righteous Sects had ended the stage of mutual testing.

Next, both sides would probably commit a large number of Golden Elixir Masters, and the upcoming warfare would become even fiercer.

Meng Guan seemed quite elated in his transmission to He Song about this.

And He Song was aware that Meng Guan became stronger in battle,

thus, He Song also sent back his congratulations.
