162: Chapter 161: Zheng Yunshu 162: Chapter 161: Zheng Yunshu “I can tell that your Sect has a long history.
If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll see if I can join.”
Shen Wang smiled.
He actually had an interest in the Hundred Array Map, as it could be upgraded with various functions, which suited him well.
If this Array Map could protect his people at any time, he wouldn’t have to hide in one place in the future.
“Younger Brother Wang, it’s a bit difficult for someone like you to join the Inner Sect midway, but it’s not impossible.
Just stay in the Outer Pavilion for now and wait for an opportunity.”
Li Yuanliu laughed and said, “First, e with me to register, receive this month’s tasks and salary, and get familiar with the Outer Pavilion.
We can talk more after you settle in.”
“Alright, thank you, Brother Li.”
Shen Wang followed and walked towards the other side of the pavilion, passing through the door Zheng Bingzhong left through, arriving at a long courtyard.
Except for some grass and trees in the center, there were residences with lofts on both sides.
Many people were holding Array Flags, Array Plates, and other items, with array fluctuations inside the lofts.
Through the window, Shen Wang saw people engraving arrays, estimating that this was the place where arrays were refined in the Outer Pavilion.
“Our Hundred Refining Sect has many different branches, all on this mountain, making it convenient for everyone to cooperate.”
Li Yuanliu explained, “For instance, these Array Flags and Array Plates are provided to us by the Artifact Refining Pavilion.
We only need to engrave the Array Patterns on them without having to refine these things from scratch.”
He pointed inside the loft, “Of course, we mainly refine medium to large array ponents because the power and coverage of arrays released by Array Flags and Array Plates are very limited.”
“We mainly sell arrays that protect a family or even a Sect?”
Shen Wang nodded.
The Array Flag he bought only covered the ancestral residence.
If the area were larger, the array’s power would be dispersed, reducing its defensive capability.
Arrays released by Array Plates are even smaller than those formed by Array Flags.
These are simplified arrays, also known as miniature arrays.
Arrays formed with various array ponents are plete arrays, divided into small, medium, and large.
As long as there are enough array ponents, the array’s strength at every point on a mountain can be guaranteed to a certain level.
This kind of array is posed of multiple sets of Array Flags and Array Plates, making it more expensive.
To set up an array covering the entire Kunyu Mountain’s Ninth Peak, Shen Wang would need a set of large arrays.
He would need to get a blueprint, continuously refine array ponents, and place them on the mountain.
Once activated, it could form a large array.
“Indeed, such large arrays are more suitable for making money.
Besides maintenance, even just replacing array ponents can feed everyone.”
Li Yuanliu laughed, “Selling only miniature arrays wouldn’t sustain so many people.”
Shen Wang was thoughtful, recalling Yun Lingshu’s Array-Breaking Shuttle, “Brother Li, I have something to ask.
There’s a Magical Treasure called the Array-Breaking Shuttle.
How do ordinary arrays deal with it?”
“You’ve seen the Array-Breaking Shuttle?” Li Yuanliu was surprised, “That’s a very precious item, no less valuable than Elder Zheng’s High-Level Ten Array Map.”
“I was fortunate to see it once; it was very fierce in breaking arrays.
I couldn’t think of a way to counter it at the time.”
Shen Wang said.
“From the perspective of breaking arrays, it’s practically unsolvable because the Array-Breaking Shuttle possesses the Power of the Five Elements, which can counteract most arrays.”
Li Yuanliu shook his head without any hesitation.
Shen Wang’s face twitched.
If it’s unsolvable, wouldn’t he face the same problem if Yun Lingshu and others found him again?
“Brother, what I mean by unsolvable is from the same standpoint.
Either you have strong Array Power or cultivation that renders the Array-Breaking Shuttle useless, or you get an Array-Breaking Shuttle yourself to counterattack in kind.”
Seeing Shen Wang’s expression, Li Yuanliu couldn’t help but laugh as he spoke.
“That’s true; no matter how powerful the Array-Breaking Shuttle is, there are arrays it can’t break, and it can be countered by a similar Array-Breaking Shuttle.”
Shen Wang realized and smiled wryly, “I’ve seen too little, my perspective is too limited.”
“Take your time.
At our Hundred Refining Sect, you’ll surely see all sorts of strange and novel things.”
Li Yuanliu laughed heartily, feeling a sense of acplishment in guiding Shen Wang since this guy had performed outstandingly just now.
At this moment, a figure hurriedly walked past them, stirring up a fragrant breeze.
Shen Wang saw an enchanting silhouette, his eyes lit up.
This woman’s back was truly beautiful.
She wore a white robe, red silk tied on her hair, a silver belt around her waist, her body like a willow, graceful as a startled swan, elegant as a dragon in flight.
It was the first time Shen Wang saw a woman’s back so captivating.
“This is Fairy Zheng Yunshu, a True Disciple of our Hundred Refining Sect and a personal disciple of our Array Refining Pavilion Master, at the Array King Level.”
Seeing Shen Wang staring at the distant figure, Li Yuanliu introduced, “Her brother is the Elder Zheng Bingzhong who just assessed you, both are part of the Zheng family’s dual Array Kings, known as the Cloud Ease Array King.
Surely he’s in a hurry because Elder Zheng Bingzhong’s health has declined again.”
“They are siblings?
Both so highly skilled, must be a well-established family.”
Shen Wang withdrew his gaze as Zheng Yunshu disappeared into the distance.
“Indeed, a long lineage.
The Zheng surname itself es from arrays.”
Li Yuanliu said regretfully, “It’s a pity the men in this family tend to have short lives.
Perhaps it’s the heavens envying talent.”
Shen Wang couldn’t help but think of Zheng Bingzhong’s sickly appearance, perhaps due to some hereditary illness or the like.
“Let’s go, I’ll introduce you to the other three stewards.
I handle receiving new members; the other three manage logistics, financial distribution, and task assignment.”
Li Yuanliu led Shen Wang to a nearby warehouse where they met a middle-aged Female Cultivator named He Tang, who managed the collection and distribution of various array refining materials.
He then met Steward Zhang, responsible for tributor distribution and managing finances, but Steward Liu was temporarily absent.
However, someone else helped distribute the tasks for the uping year.
Shen Wang went to Steward Zhang to collect this month’s salary in advance and then went to Steward He to obtain array blueprints and ponents for engraving Array Patterns.
In the warehouse, Steward He found what Shen Wang needed with an indifferent look, had him sign and attest, then seated himself, ignoring him.
Shen Wang didn’t care about the other party’s indifference.
At that moment, he saw a large number of array ponents in the warehouse, both semifinished and finished products, of varying grades, neatly categorized.
Low-grade Treasure Array and Magic Array ponents were randomly placed on the ground, while only Middle-Grade Array ponents were placed on shelves, divided into different areas according to category and grade.
Shen Wang couldn’t help but glance at the area storing Top-Grade Array ponents, where there weren’t many items, but at least ten arrays were placed.
Next to them were some scrolls, presumably array maps.
These items were covered by arrays and couldn’t be taken casually.
“Something else?”
Steward He called out to him as he didn’t leave, coldly inquiring.
Shen Wang indeed wanted to ask something, but before he could speak, a cold voice came from outside.
“Wang Sheng, e out!”
Wang Sheng was Shen Wang’s alias here.
He stepped out of the warehouse with the items he just received, puzzled, and found a long-haired beauty glaring at him fiercely, clearly not here with friendly intentions.
