Within the grand fire array formation, the more Ancestor Chi Yan listened, the more surprised he became. From the first time that Lin Ming had mentioned the 12 columns of fire runes he had been shaken. The so-called flame rune column and the 36 spiral runes were all really terms of the ancient array formation!
The extraordinary and ancient array formations that had been passed down to this age were already incomplete. Every single jade slip of the ancient array formation was a legacy that every array master yearned for in their dreams. Even the appearance of a single person could trigger a bloody and terrifying war!
This brat actually comprehended an incredible ancient array formation? Who's master?
Moreover, what surprised Ancestor Chi Yan the most was that Lin Ming's perception of the Dao of the array formation was simply terrifying!
The ancient array formation styles were complex and boundless in depth. Even with the best teachers, without a few decades, nothing came of it. But this boy who was at most 18 years old, actually had the perception and vision to see the flaws in his own array formation?
Even before when he said, 'the fiction created will drain the fire origin energy from the power, and will also disrupt the force field containing the fire origin energy. Not only would this damage the array formation, causing it to need to be repaired every four or five years, it was also an extremely accurate and correct assessment. After he laid down this array formation, he would have to refine it every four years. It wasn't until later when he added an extremely valuable material into the array formation that he managed to extend the time limit every ten years …
What is the origin of this boy?
Lin Ming finished speaking in less than half an incense stick. And Ancestor Chi Yan who was in the fire array formation, had been silent for a long time since Lin Ming spoke. All of the killing intent he had given was also contained.
Mu Qianyu stood to the side, unsure of what to say. After a long time, the hoarse voice of Ancestor Chi Yan sounded from within the array formation, "You?"
Lin Ming said, “Teacher is an expert I met when I was 12 years old. Regarding his name, Master never mentioned it. ”
"12 years .. How old are you now?" Ancestor Chi Yan asked in a somewhat quivering voice.
“Report to Senior, junior is currently 16 years old. ”
"16 years! Ha ha! 16 years! Laugh! It's hilarious! ”With an almost insane laugh, Ancestor Chi Yan threw his sleeves and the wall of the fire array formation opened. He was wearing a long red robe, and his hair was split in two, scattered crazily around. Like this, Ancestor Chi Yan stepped out of the eight trigrams fire array formation.
Ancestor Chi Yan's face was deathly pale, as if it was near death, and his two eyes revealed a desolate and bitter light. "16-year-old snot boy .. studied array formations for four years, but it could actually point out all the mistakes in this eight trigrams fire array formation that I used for 20 years with care and exhausting efforts to lay down! Very sad! Too ridiculous! ”
Lin Ming originally wanted to point out some flaws in the Ancestral Chi Yan array formation, and then propose some possible areas of improvement. Instead, Ancestor Chi Yan would forge a spear for him. But he did not think that he would me such a crazy and savage attitude. This old man was completely abnormal from the start, and it seemed like he had a psychotic disposition.
Lin Ming hesitated for a moment, and cupped his hands together, saying, "Senior must be joking. Junior has only studied a few limited array formations, and Senior's eight trigrams fire array formation happens to be similar to the fire formation my teacher taught me. Therefore, I can see some flaws. ”
"Four years? Just studying a few limited array formations? … Haha! ”Ancestor Chi Yan's lips twitch. Lin Ming had said all of this easily, but array formations were an art that had to be learned in a very orderly manner. If there was no strong foundation, where would a high-level array formation like this eight trigrams fire formation come from? Thin air? And it was also one of the much more complex and esoteric ancient arrays!
“There is no limit in this universe, there is always someone higher! I'm really a frog in a well, average, mediocre! "Our ancestor Chi Yan looked up at the sky and sighed deeply. The eight trigrams of fire array formations were torn back, leaving behind a gap the size of a person. Then, he turned around and walked inside, as if he was in a trance.
Lin Ming paused, hesitated, and then entered the eight trigrams fire formation, following Ancestor Chi Yan.
"Lin Ming, your master taught you about ancient array formations?" Mu Qianyu could slowly accept this unthinkable reality after a long time. This was much more amazing than Lin Ming absorbing the Purple Flood Dragon Divine Thunder with a trivial Bone Forging cultivation.
As soon as Lin Ming heard this question, he felt somewhat awkward. He did not want to lie to Mu Qianyu, but since things had already come this way, he had to continue lying. “I don't know what an ancient array is. What Master taught me, I learned and learned. The truth is that I cannot set up an array formation, I only know a bit of superficial knowledge. ”
If he wanted to set up a large-scale array formation, Lin Ming would need at least cultivation in the Revolving Core realm. Lin Ming naturally did not possess this ability.
Mu Qianyu did not think that Lin Ming would have such a master. If master Lin Ming was at the Xiantian realm, then he would not be surprised. After all, the talent that appeared within Lin Ming really made people think that he was not a mortal martial artist. But hearing Ancestor Chi Yan's depressed words, master Lin Ming might even have a high chance of becoming the supreme elder who had flown into the Realm of the Gods!
This kind of character could call himself an emperor if he wanted to. Within the Sky Skill Continent, he would become the king of kings, the highest possible existence!
Mu Qianyu was confused.
Or perhaps, his master had already flown into the Realm of the Gods?
The two followed Ancestor Chi Yan to his residence, it was a cave house located at the center of the fire array formation. Perhaps because it had been roasted by the fire origin energy for such a long time, the walls of the cave house had been burnt to a deep ruby red.
The inside of the cave house was full of piles of other items. There were array flags, jade array formation slips, disk arrays, and all sorts of other treasures. There are even two wooden puppets – this might be a maid doll that handles the daily needs of Ancestor Chi Yan.
Seeing all this, Lin Ming could imagine that if one stayed here every day, just concentrating on the array formation and watching these dead puppets day after day, he said, even the most normal and well-adjusted individuals will have mental problems.
“You will stay here today. The mood of this old man was no longer suitable for forging spears. Tomorrow, I'll light the furnace! What this old man said would not change. I took back the harsh words I said, and also apologized to this Little Brother! I will even put up some of my own collection of distilleries as an apology gift to make amends. '' As Ancestor Chi Yan said this, he took out a hand-sized dark purple metal lump from his spatial ring and placed it on the table.
The metal in his palm was only the size of a hand, but when it was placed on the table, the table looked as if it would be shattered at any moment.
Lin Ming's eyes were bright. This dark purple, almost black, whatever it was had to be heavier than dark purple elastic iron or even heavy soft silver. Not only that, but he could feel the thick energy emitted from the dark purple metal that caused his heart to race. In the dim light of the cave, he could see the air around the dark purple metal twisting, as if it was distorted.
Previously, Ancestor Chi Yan had said that if Lin Ming could point out the flaws in his fire array formation, then he would immediately apologize and help Lin Ming forge his spear.
Ancestor Chi Yan had a very stubborn and unruly temperament; it was very difficult for him to bow his head and apologize to anyone. Lin Ming did not think that he would not only apologize, but also offer materials from his own collection. The material value that Ancestor Chi Yan would gather could be imagined!
"Is this ... Purple Comet?"
Mu Qianyu was perplexed when she saw this dark purple metal lump, not daring to be positive in her guess. Since Mu Qianyu had come into contact with Ancestor Chi Yan many times, she also had a deep understanding of the various types of refining materials. Purple Comet was sufficient material to forge a high-tier earth step treasure. Or, if it was pure enough, the Purple Comet could even make a heaven-step treasure!
The treasure of heaven's step was a priceless item that would often only be used by emperors who were peerless great powers!
If the Purple Comet was used as an addition to the Violet Electricity Spirit Bamboo and the Sacred Flame Parasol Tree, then Lin Ming's spear level might even exceed that of his own Vermillion Bird Sword!
The Vermillion Bird Sword was one of the twin Ice and Fire Swords of Divine Phoenix Island, and also one of the sect's sacred treasures. How could Mu Qianyu not be surprised!
"good. This is Purple Comet. In my life, I have no plans to try and fly to the Realm of the Gods, it is a possibility that is too far for me. My main goal was to forge a heaven-step treasure, and carve my name so that it spread through history. That's why I gathered all the materials I can that can forge heaven step treasures. This piece of Purple Comet was too small to make a heaven-step treasure, but it was right for me to forge a spear for you. ”
"Senior Chi Yan, this is .." Lin Ming did not know what to say. Such materials were extremely valuable, even for someone like Ancestor Chi Yan. He did not think that the old man would not only apologize, but he would also bring out such a precious material. This old man is serious in keeping any and all of his promises!
Ancestor Chi Yan sighed deeply and slowly said, “My refining path is just like your martial arts path. I'm saying that if you can point out the flaws in my array formation, then I'll apologize and forge the spear for you. Otherwise, I'll cut off your tongue and waste your martial arts.
"Since I want to destroy your martial arts, then I naturally have to pay the same price!"
As Ancestor Chi Yan said, he had already subconsciously placed Lin Ming on the same level as himself. A peerless master like himself was actually talking to someone like an ant about equality. No matter if it was master Lin Ming or his terrifying perception of the Dao array formation, Ancestor Chi Yan could see that 100 years from now, he said, Lin Ming would become an unrivalled powerhouse of his generation.
Lin Ming sighed. Although Ancestor Chi Yan really had an eccentric, unreasonable, and sometimes cruel temper, his heart of martial arts was actually very strong and pure. A person with such confidence in his or her own beliefs can often walk further down the path of martial arts.
Actually, people like this deserve to be respected. Thinking this, Lin Ming said, "Senior Chi Yan, about the eight Senior trigrams fire array, junior has some opinions. I can offer you some simple words in hopes Senior might be a little inspired. ”
"mm?" Ancestor Chi Yan's eyes shone, his voice began to grow ecstatic. Naturally, he could not look down on Lin Ming anymore. “What advice do you have? This old man is listening with all ears! "
Eight trigrams of fire arrays was one of his life paths. To forge a heaven-step treasure, one of the greatest obstacles was the flame itself. For example, Purple Comet and other materials of the same rank must be purified enough to make a heaven-step treasure. But doing this is easier said than done. Even Ancestor Chi Yan did not have the current ability to refine them to that extent.
Lin Ming said, "About the fire rune column I mentioned earlier, the fire rune column can increase the power of fire, but it will also dissipate the fire origin energy. But if three arc symbols were carved into the fire rune column at a calculated distance, then the symbol would be able to restrict the fire origin essence during rotation, reducing the dissipating fire origin energy. Of course, the problem was that the bow symbol was easily worn out by the fire origin energy, and had to be redrawn every three years. ”
"Once in every three years is not a problem!" Ancestor Chi Yan exclaimed in excitement. He's too excited right now. He had deduced the model in his mind, and it would really be worth it!
