After returning to the Sect.
Li Ping’an began studying Arrays.
「A few years later.」
He unexpectedly caught the eye of a Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarch and beca his Direct Disciple.
With his aptitude, it should have been impossible for a Divinity Transformation expert to take notice of him. However, he bore a striking resemblance to the Celestial Monarch’s deceased son, and so his status skyrocketed.
From then on, more resources were allocated to him, such as access to the Sect’s Secret Realms.
The Secret Realms contained many lands of treasure.
The strangest among them was a place nad the "Land of mory."
In this area were countless massive mory Stones, which preserved many scenes from the Cultivation Immortality Realm’s past.
By stepping inside,
one could personally experience the events within those scenes.
’This mory Stone contains a recording of an elder performing Array Formation. It’s very helpful to .’
Li Ping’an often entered one of the stones, watching the elder’s Array Formation ti and again to gain insights into the Dao of Arrays.
Unfortunately, his aptitude was simply too poor.
His progress was extrely slow.
’I really have no talent for Arrays. Maybe I should switch to Alchemy?’
Although the Ten Thousand Arrays Sect was famous for its Arrays, it also had other Cultivation Immortality Techniques.
At this thought,
Li Ping’an walked over to another mory Stone nearby.
This mory Stone recorded a scene of a great master of the Alchemy Dao nad Master Dancheng teaching his disciples.
In the scene,
the great master sat cross-legged before a massive Pill Furnace.
He channeled his Pill Fire, feeding ingredients into the Pill Furnace one by one as he explained the refining process.
"This Beast Blood Returning Essence Pill is of great benefit to Body Refining Cultivators. When refining it, there are many points to which you must pay attention..."
Below, dozens of disciples sat cross-legged, listening with rapt attention.
After the demonstration ended,
Master Dancheng, with a kind and gentle expression, smiled and asked his disciples,
"Did you all understand?"
Most of the disciples shook their heads and began to voice the questions on their minds.
Li Ping’an stood right in the middle of this scene.
He watched this scene, his heart filled with yearning.
’I wonder what era this Elder, Master Dancheng, is from. I truly wish I could beco his disciple.’
He sighed softly at the thought.
The scene in the mory Stone,
was, after all, just an illusory image.
But he was a real person, standing there like a phantom, completely out of place with the figures in the recording.
Li Chang’an also mused to himself.
’If only I could beco this elder’s disciple.’
A mont ago, using Li Ping’an’s perspective, he had watched the entire scene and gained great insight into the Alchemy Dao.
He wanted to watch it a few more tis,
but Li Ping’an had already left the mory Stone to go back and contemplate Arrays.
Ti passes unnoticed in cultivation.
「Many years later.」
Li Ping’an’s mastery of Arrays had reached the Peak of Tier Two, and he was just one step away from Tier Three.
He had wanted to go down the mountain to see the Mortal Realm.
But the Sect Elders told him that the Demonic Influence outside the Sect was growing increasingly rampant and had beco a formidable power.
Among them was a fiend nad Lin Fan who was extrely cunning and powerful, and had killed a great number of Sect Disciples.
It was not a good ti to leave the mountain.
’Lin Fan? Could it be Brother Lin?’
Li Ping’an was shocked and uncertain.
He felt an ever-growing urge to descend the mountain and find out the truth, but he was always prevented from leaving.
The Sect’s situation seed to be even worse than he had imagined.
On this day,
the entire Ten Thousand Arrays Sect suddenly shook.
"BOOM!"
An earth-shattering roar exploded.
"This is bad! Soone is attacking the Sect Protection Array!"
"Everyone, the situation is dire! A great catastrophe is upon us! Evacuate the talented disciples first!"
Countless anxious voices rang out from every corner of the Sect.
「Outside the Sect.」
More than ten blurry figures appeared. The oppressive aura from each was utterly terrifying—they were all comparable to Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarchs!
They attacked in unison with overwhelming power, causing the Sect Protection Array to boom once more.
「Inside the Sect.」
The shockwave sent countless disciples reeling, their faces paling as their Qi and blood churned within them.
Imdiately after, a brilliant streak of light shot across the distant horizon. It blazed like a teor from beyond the heavens, hurtling with terrifying and violent montum toward the entire Ten Thousand Arrays Sect.
Upon closer inspection, the object was revealed to be a stone stele, greyish-white in its entirety.
Carved upon the stele were four large words: "Immortal Dao Must Perish."
"Ten Thousand Arrays Sect, today is the day of your destruction!"
"You’re dreaming!"
Elder Luo Kun roared in fury as he shot into the air to intercept the terrifying Stone Stele.
BOOM! The sound was like a clap of thunder.
Heaven and earth shook!
Luo Kun’s face went pale, and he spat out several mouthfuls of blood. But his figure remained unmoved; he had actually managed to withstand the Stone Stele by sheer force, preventing it from crashing into the Sect Protection Array.
Upon seeing this,
the dozen or so enemies outside the Sect spoke one after another, their voices filled with admiration.
"Worthy of the title ’Celestial Pride of his generation,’ Elder Luo. To think he could withstand the Immortal Suppression Stele all by himself."
"Elder Luo, your cultivation philosophy is different from theirs. You should have been one of us. Why must you die for them?"
Despite their overtures,
Luo Kun remained unmoved and roared in fury.
"Evergreen Vine, slay the enemy with !"
In an instant, imnse Cyan Rattan shot out from the surrounding clouds, like colossal pythons reaching for the heavens as they lunged toward the enemies outside the Sect.
One of them snorted coldly.
"So it’s the Eternal Green Vine. Isn’t this Heaven and Earth Spirit Root a Treasure of the Ancient Wood Sect? Why is it in the Ten Thousand Arrays Sect?"
"No wonder the Ancient Wood Sect was annihilated so quickly. They actually lent their own sect’s Treasure to soone else."
Hearing this,
the many disciples in the Sect below were horrified.
"What? The Ancient Wood Sect has been destroyed?"
The Ancient Wood Sect was a massive sect on par with the Ten Thousand Arrays Sect, one of the Nine Great Immortal Sects.
And now, such a powerful sect had actually been destroyed!
’What would be the fate of the Ten Thousand Arrays Sect?’
Panic spread throughout the Sect.
An atmosphere of unease and fear rapidly took hold.
Li Ping’an was also flustered, unsure of what to do.
