Chapter 293: Chapter 293: Method of Array Refinement_1

"Brother Yang, you seem to have misjudged this time."

Yuan Venerate suddenly spoke.

"Misjudged?"

Yang Dan Lin didn’t understand.

"This youngster has already broken through to the Ninth Layer Pinnacle of Martial Veins, but he must have cultivated some special Martial Arts that can conceal his true cultivation level. Even you couldn’t see through it, only because I have the ’Eye of Truth’ was I able to see it,"

explained Yuan Venerate.

Yang Dan Lin looked toward Ling Xiao, his face revealing a shock.

"Master, elder, I hope the two of you will not disclose this matter. The only reason I have done this is purely to avoid jealousy. Especially since Demonflame Celestial bears a grudge against my worldly Master Baiyun, so I had to keep a low profile for now,"

Ling Xiao said with a bitter smile.

"Rest assured, we won’t talk recklessly. However, the strong ones in the Heavenly Man Realm often possess special Divine Abilities. Although Divining Abilities like the Eye of Truth are very rare, we cannot rule out similar methods that could see through your cultivation," reminded Yuan Venerate.

"The powerhouses of the Heavenly Man Realm won’t bother with an unknown person like me."

Ling Xiao, of course, knew what Yuan Venerate had said was true, but he wasn’t worried. Unless he advanced to the Transcendent Realm, perhaps Demonflame Celestial might pay some attention, but at other times, they would have plenty of affairs to attend to, how would they waste time observing him, an unknown person?

Besides, there was a ninety percent chance that Demonflame Celestial’s Divine Abilities were dissimilar to the "Eye of Truth."

"Alright, let’s not talk about this. I called you here today to give you this Eternal Divine Pill Scripture."

Yang Dan Lin took out a book and handed it to Ling Xiao. The book wasn’t very thick, but it was clearly crafted using a special sealing method. If completely unfolded, it likely wouldn’t fit in a five or six hundred square meter room.

"This is the life’s work of our master Yuan Venerate. Initially, he planned to pass it on to you in a few years, but your aptitude in medicine is astonishing. So, after consulting with Master Yuan Venerate, we decided to pass this book on to you as soon as possible, so that you can achieve even greater accomplishments on the path of alchemy!"

Ling Xiao carefully took the book; it was Yuan Venerate’s lifetime of effort.

"Thank you, Master, thank you, elder,"

Ling Xiao said deeply, bowing, then speaking earnestly.

"This book is not just the culmination of my efforts. In fact, when I was young, I had the fortune of apprenticing under several outstanding alchemists. This book is the culmination of the efforts of over a hundred top-tier alchemists. It contains not only profound alchemic techniques but also many special insights, which you must treasure,"

Yuan Venerate reminded.

"Master, rest assured, I will treasure it,"

Ling Xiao promised.

"Good. That’s enough about alchemy for now. Next, I will personally teach you the ’Method of Array Refinement,’"

Yuan Venerate suddenly said.

"Method of Array Refinement?"

Ling Xiao was momentarily taken aback. He had heard of Array Formations in this world, and that such formations required certain materials to be arranged, but what exactly was the "Method of Array Refinement"?

He had heard of Artifact Refining, though.

"Yes, the Method of Array Refinement!"

Yuan Venerate explained, "You should know that weapons, armor, hidden weapons, and the like can all be inlaid with ’Magic Arrays,’ enabling them to produce special effects, right?"

"I have heard of this before,"

Ling Xiao nodded.

"The Method of Array Refinement is the process of crafting all magic arrays and array formations by refining and sealing them within Array Refining Stones. When needed, the stones are melted together with the weapon, endowing it with special effects. Moreover, if one wants to set up an array formation, they can also directly utilize Array Refining Stones for the task,"

Yuan Venerate continued to explain, "Hence, the foundation of the Method of Array Refinement is the study of magic arrays and array formations. However, I believe this should not be a difficult task for you. With your exceptional memory, you should be able to easily memorize almost all existing magic arrays and array formations, right? Once you’ve remembered them, I will personally teach you how to refine arrays."

Seeing Ling Xiao still looking unfazed, Yang Dan Lin couldn’t help but tease, "You lad, you really don’t realize how formidable it is. This Method of Array Refinement was learned by Yuan Venerate from the highest level ’Immortal Court Continent’ of the Mysterious World. There are many Array Formation Masters there, but your master is one of the most outstanding. This method doesn’t even exist on the Heavenly Dragon Continent."

"That impressive!"

"Of course, Artifact Refiners on the Heavenly Dragon Continent can only enhance the effects of weapons by carving inscriptions or embedding special gems, while on the Immortal Court Continent, such methods are merely the most basic stage of Array Refinement, lacking any technical content and even wasteful of resources,"

Yuan Venerate explained, "Do you understand now?"

"Disciple understands and is willing to learn!"

In fact, Ling Xiao had just been lost in thought, guessing about Yuan Venerate’s identity. Not only was he a powerful Alchemist, but also a powerful Array Formation Master. What exactly was the background of his master?

"Good to hear you understand. In the future, you’ll still be publicly associated with the Pharmacy Hall, but privately, you’ll study Array Refinement with me. To help you grasp the benefits of Array Refinement more clearly, go to the sect’s marketplace and buy some Array Refining Stones,"

Yuan Venerate said.

"Master, didn’t you say that the concept of Array Refinement doesn’t exist on the Heavenly Dragon Continent? How come there are Array Refining Stones?"

Ling Xiao asked, puzzled.

"Array Refining Stones on the Heavenly Dragon Continent are just a type of somewhat expensive gemstone. Although they’re costly, you can buy ten Array Refining Stones with just one Low-grade Spirit Stone. Since these stones lack any attributes, the martial artists on the Heavenly Dragon Continent usually use them as Spirit Storage Stones to store True Essence, which is a total waste,"

Yuan Venerate explained, "On the Heavenly Dragon Continent, they’re called Spirit Storage Stones, and you just need to buy Low-grade ones."

"Alright, the disciple understands, but Elder, where is the Moon Hua Sect’s marketplace?"

Ling Xiao had been in the Moon Hua Sect for a month now, mostly moving between the Outer Sect and the Pharmacy Hall; he hadn’t really gone anywhere else.

"Find it yourself!"

Yang Dan Lin glared at Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao chuckled to himself, thinking that it made sense; if he couldn’t even find his own sect’s marketplace, how would he get by outside later?

Neither Yuan Venerate nor Yang Dan Lin provided the Spirit Stones needed to purchase the Array Refining Stones, but this was not a problem, as not many were needed.

If an array formation could be successfully refined, then just one Array Refining Stone would suffice.

Accounting for the possibility of failure, he planned to buy ten stones, which would only cost the value of one Low-grade Spirit Stone—a burden that was nothing to him.

In the sect world, Spirit Stones had become the standard currency unit, while Silver and Gold had become rather common resources.

They were also used in Alchemy, Medicine preparation, and Artifact Refining, but not as valuable as they were in the mundane world.

In the sect world, several million taels of Silver could be exchanged for only one Low-grade Spirit Stone, and Gold, although slightly more valuable, could only be exchanged at the rate of ten thousand taels of Gold for one Low-grade Spirit Stone.

The marketplace of the Moon Hua Sect was actually very easy to find. You just need to ask an older Outer Disciple or even a stranger you meet on the road, and they could tell you.
