Chapter 305 Nobody Should Dislike Anyone!
The moment Yan Chengxue saw the Soul Guide, she made a smooth turn and walked towards the large formation she had been facing.
Kui Shengge watched as her cheap apprentice gathered up all the scattered array flags on the ground, attempting to replicate the previous illusion array and lock herself inside.
The Demon Lord Lei Kui couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"
Yan Chengxue, who was planting the battle flags, looked up at him with an expression that you wouldn't understand: "I have a feeling that once I accept Xue Lan's letter, I'll have endless work to do."
Xue Lan wouldn't use the Soul Summoning Technique for urgent matters; otherwise, it's something exhausting.
Kui Shengge was so angry she almost laughed. The middle-aged man took a few steps forward and lifted the young man off the ground.
"At this point, which formation master isn't working?"
Yan Chengxue was thus dragged to the Soul Guide by Kui Shengge, reluctantly taking the letter from the Soul Guide's hand. She unfolded it and glanced at it hastily. Yan Chengxue's face then lost its expression.
He looked like a dead fish.
Xue Lan's letter this time was not as long as her previous letters, but it made Yan Chengxue even more unhappy.
Kui Shengge asked curiously, "What did Xue Lan write?"
Yan Chengxue raised her hand, a spark of fire appearing at her fingertips. The young man, looking at the lovely Yu Xue, deliberately softened his voice:
"Go back and tell your lord that I will do my best to handle this matter."
"Thank you, Brother Chengxue." Yinhun smiled sweetly at Yan Chengxue before disappearing into the horizon.
"Xue Lan has been left at Qingshuitai by the sect elders. She needs a thousand spirit-gathering arrays." Yan Chengxue finally spoke slowly when the aura of the soul-guiding array had disappeared.
Kui Shengge's expression froze: "How much?"
The middle-aged man's tone was full of disbelief.
“A thousand.” Yan Chengxue slowly raised his eyes to look at Kui Shengge. Kui Shengge didn’t know if it was his imagination, but he seemed to see dark circles under this person’s eyes.
Lei Kui, the Demon Lord, chuckled awkwardly: "No wonder you're so skilled at gathering spiritual artifacts in the center when setting up formations..."
So it turns out he was trained by doing manual labor for others all his life.
"If you're going to build an array, what about your cultivation?" Kui Shengge asked.
"Keep learning!" A weary smile appeared on Yan Chengxue's face. "I'm practically an immortal, how could I be worked to death?"
After saying this, the young man began to count the materials in his storage bag.
After taking inventory, Yan Chengxue breathed a sigh of relief.
It's alright, it's barely enough.
Yan Chengxue kept many things from Kui Shengge. Xue Lan's letter contained hundreds of words, and in addition to urgently making a thousand spirit-gathering arrays, there were some additional requirements.
For example, don't add spirit stones to the core of this spirit-gathering array, or send the semi-finished array flags directly there.
Yan Chengxue wasn't stupid. She didn't want a spirit-gathering array that didn't require spirit stones, and she even wanted a half-finished one. Considering the things Xue Lan kept, it was clear that this person probably didn't want a spirit-gathering array but a demon-gathering array.
Recalling her discussions with Xue Lan about those dream demons in Luoxia City, Yan Chengxue's eyes lit up with excitement.
It's that kind of fervent excitement you feel when you're about to try something new that no one has ever tried before.
Over the next few days, Yan Chengxue continued to receive instruction from Kui Shengge, including but not limited to breaking formations, setting up formations, and sensing the destiny of heaven and earth... She spent the rest of her time alone in her cave making the formations that Xue Lan wanted.
To better suit Xue Lan's ideas, he also made some minor modifications to the array patterns on the array plate, allowing the absorbed demonic or spiritual energy to have a wider range of influence.
Kui Shengge watched as the young man numbly carved array patterns. Although he looked completely exhausted, he still controlled the strength in his hands perfectly.
The middle-aged man looked at Yan Chengxue and asked, "Why not let the disciples of the War Puppet Mansion's Weaponry Sect do it?"
Yan Chengxue looked at him and said, "My master asked me the same question before, asking why I didn't teach the disciples of the Weaponry Dao to forge and carve the array plate."
The young man's voice suddenly became very gentle, as if he had seen his beloved girl.
"I remember saying that the flow of spiritual energy on the array plate is different in the slightest way. Only the array master himself knows these differences."
"If I'm going to take a formation to the battlefield without understanding it, what's the difference between that and carrying a machete that's meant to cut off my own head?"
“What you said before is right! I have been able to see the entanglement of the energy in the world since I was a child. In my eyes, there is a deeper layer of picture in addition to the appearance that ordinary people can see.”
"Untangle and combine those messy lines to create a powerful array."
"A clear mind is like a bright mirror; one's own path is naturally clear. All things in the world are in constant flux..."
The young man breathed a sigh of relief: "That feeling is my favorite."
Kui Shengge smiled and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she looked at the carving knife in Yan Chengxue's hand.
The array plate in Yan Chengxue's hand was not made of any ordinary material; it was made of the Thousand-Jin Iron, a unique product of Luoxia Mountain.
This iron has two characteristics: it is hard and it is heavy.
But under that small carving knife, it looked like a piece of soft wood.
Yan Chengxue noticed Kui Shengge's gaze. The young man raised his hand and said with a smug tone, "It was a gift from Xue Lan."
"It is said to be a precious material brought down from the upper realm many years ago by someone from the upper realm. My senior uncle Hengyang gave it to Xue Lan to curry favor with her."
"Let me show you, there's more than one!"
As he spoke, the young man emptied dozens of carving knives of various sizes from his storage bag.
"Were they all gifts from Xue Lan?" Kui Shengge looked at the mirror image in front of her, somewhat astonished.
Yan Chengxue: "Hmm!"
The middle-aged man slowly stood up and said, "I used to think it was unfair of Xue Lan to ask you for a thousand formations at once, but now I think..."
After pondering for a long time, the Demon Lord Lei Kui finally spoke slowly: "Let's torture each other, and neither of us should complain about the other!"
After saying this, Kui Shengge walked slowly out with his hands behind his back. When he reached the door, the middle-aged man suddenly turned around: "When your cultivation is complete and you can ascend to the upper realm, I have a request for you."
Yan Chengxue looked up: "Please speak."
A look of deep longing, mixed with a touch of resolute determination, appeared in the middle-aged man's indigo eyes.
"I need you to go to the Southern Region of the Upper Realm, to Shangwei Mountain, for me."
Yan Chengxue spoke softly: "Shangwei Mountain?"
"There are the most advanced formations in the entire Yuanming Realm there; you'll like them."
The middle-aged man's voice was deep and solemn, as if it came from a very, very far place.
"If you really want to save the Yuanming Realm through array formations..."
"Shangwei Mountain is a place you absolutely must visit!"
After saying this, he turned and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
Yan Chengxue suddenly became anxious: "Senior, you said it's the Southern Region of the Upper Realm, the Southern Region of the Upper Realm stretches for tens of thousands of miles..."
Where is he supposed to find it?
Upon hearing this, Kui Shengge laughed loudly, "Borrowing the power of an entire realm, I will deduce the universe!"
"You are the one destined for us; there's no need to search for you deliberately!"
