Chapter 1272: Chapter 700: Recollections of the Netherworld Mansion_2 Chapter 1272: Chapter 700: Recollections of the Netherworld Mansion_2 With Chen Mobai’s early guidance, Song Huangdae avoided various issues he might have encountered during Foundation Establishment, and due to his body’s early transformation, he easily overcame the major bottlenecks of the realm.
A month later, the successful Foundation Establishment practitioner, Song Huangdae, with many questions about the Manuscript of Ten Thousand Transformation Thunder Pool, visited Chen Mobai at the highest peak cave dwelling in Northern Abyss City.
“Not bad, you have a good talent for formations, especially ground arrays, and in the future, you can focus on this area. I hope you can become the first Rank-4 Array Master in the sect!”
After answering some of Song Huangdae’s questions, Chen Mobai felt like he had discovered a treasure.
The All-Transforming Thunder Pond was mainly a massive and complex heaven and earth array that combined the Heavenly Thunder Manifestation with the Mountain and River Spiritual Veins, evolving a vast formation that contained the profound mystery of creation.
Song Huangdae originally had the foundation of an Earth Master. Suddenly studying about formations, although a bit uncomfortable, he quickly understood them, especially the ground arrays powered by the Mountain and River Spiritual Veins; he was particularly receptive.
However, when it came to Sky Arrays and Human Arrays, Chen Mobai found that Song Huangdae did not have the same talent as he did for ground arrays.
Even so, it made him very pleased.
After all, in the entire Tianhe Realm and even in the Immortal Gate, ninety percent of the arrays were ground arrays.
Human arrays were too profound and deep, Sky Arrays vast and obscure. Even Chen Mobai’s good brother, Yunyang Bing, a formation genius, focused more on studying ground arrays in the later stages of the Daoist Academy, hoping to attain peak mastery in them before moving on to Sky Arrays and Human Arrays.
“Grandmaster, what are the Three Arrays of Heaven, Earth, and Human?”
For today’s meeting, Song Huangdae had also crammed knowledge on Array Masters but had not heard about this distinction in formations.
Chen Mobai briefly explained, giving Song Huangdae a general idea.
“In the future, when you have time, you should consider transitioning towards the direction of an Array Master. As it happens, I need to return to Giant Tree Ridge. You’ll come with me, and when the time comes, use my token to receive the formation inheritance from the Transmission of Power Division.”
Song Huangdae listened and respectfully nodded.
Chen Mobai’s return to Giant Tree Ridge was because his Spiritual Root had undergone changes again, allowing him to acquire another Grand Spell from the Divine Tree Secret Realm.
Apart from that, there was another important reason.
That was to personally hand over the medicinal ingredients for the Infant-Feeding Elixir to Yan Shaoyin and to take the five Golden Liquid Jade Pills from him.
After this task, he also planned to take a trip to Fire Country, guarded by Sheng Zhaoxi.
There was a Rank-3 Fire Yang Evil there.
That could enhance Chen Mobai’s own Primordial Yang Sword Evil.
At the border of Fire Country, he could also pass the jade pendant from Nu Jiang to his Formless Puppet.
After arranging all these matters, Chen Mobai felt very busy.
However, these were all very important, and he didn’t feel at ease unless he handled them personally.
When leaving Northern Abyss City, Chen Mobai called over E Yun, gave a series of orders, and then entered the Teleportation Array with Song Huangdae.
Along the way, Chen Mobai imparted to Song Huangdae everything he knew about the All-Transforming Thunder Pond.
The All-Transforming Thunder Pond of Jumang Academy was originally established with the assistance of a Fifth Order Formation Master from Dance Tool Dao Academy, and it was precisely because of this that, when fully powered, it could condense Water of Ten Thousand Transformations of the fifth rank.
Chen Mobai certainly had no such high expectations of Song Huangdae, who could now only comprehend one-thousandth of the complete manuscript of the All-Transforming Thunder Pond.
He hoped that this disciple would start from the basics, first setting up Rank-1 and Rank-2 All-Transforming Thunder Pools in Wind Rain Hamlet.
After accumulating rich experience and becoming proficient in actual array setup, ideally, he would be able to deploy a Rank-3 one.
That way, Chen Mobai could attempt to condense Rank-3 Water of Ten Thousand Transformations, and then, he would essentially have an endless supply of Rank-3 Spiritual Rice Tea Leaves.
As for Rank-4, it would require a Fourth Order Array Master.
There was no such talent in Eastern Wilderness.
There were three of them in East Barbarians. Chen Mobai had Chu Zuoshu send invitation cards, hoping to invite one to upgrade the Mount Meru Nine Palaces Formation in Northern Abyss City to the fourth rank.
Unfortunately, none responded.
After all, Eastern Wilderness was far away, and with an inevitable battle between Divine Wood Sect and Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, none of the three East Barbarians Array Masters wished to offend the Golden Wind Ancestor for a business deal.
Even now, with Golden Wind Ancestor trapped by Ku Zhu on Bright Mirror Mountain and unable to come out, his reputation still stood firm.
Even when the Starry Sky Commerce Guild stepped in, three Formation Masters from the East Barbarians did not respond.
Chen Mobai had also thought about inviting a Rank-4 Formation Master from the Star Heaven Dao Sect, but unfortunately, Lou Xuelong said that their Sect Uncle Lin had gone to the East Land to study and would likely not have time to come to the Eastern Wilderness in the coming few years.
The lack of deep heritage in the Eastern Wilderness was something Chen Mobai felt profoundly for the first time.
However, Chen Mobai was also finding ways to make up for this as much as possible.
Since Zhou Shengqing was a Legal Body Nascent Soul and could not increase his cultivation level, Chen Mobai suggested to him that aside from cultivating spells, he could devote some time to the Hundred Arts of Cultivation Immortal.
He was a Rank-4 Talisman Maker, and if he could become a Rank-4 Alchemist, Artifact Refiner, and Array Master in the future, then the dominant position of the Divine Wood Sect in the Eastern Wilderness would be truly solid.
In addition, nurturing younger talents was also one of the methods.
Thus, when Chen Mobai saw that Song Huang had a talent for formations, he also took great care in providing guidance.
After arriving at Giant Tree Ridge, Chen Mobai called over Yi Shaoqing, the head of the Formation Division, just as he had arranged for Han Zhiling to do, and had the latter start mentoring Song Huang.
For these two third-generation disciples from Xiao Nanshan, he had basically made the best arrangements.
However, training Song Huang this time, helping him understand the True Void Law Body and teaching him formations, reminded Chen Mobai of something he had long forgotten.
That was the Underworld Array he had obtained at Lonely Spirit Ridge!
This Large Formation required a powerful physical body from the cultivator, then Array Refining into Body, combined with an Array Plate, would allow teleportation within the boundaries of the Large Formation.
This was essentially another form of Void Walking.
Only before, Chen Mobai’s physical training was not adequate, so he had placed the chipped Array Plate at the bottom of his Storage Bag and almost forgot about it.
Now that his Longevity Dao Body had reached Rank-3 Perfection, Void Walking was definitely not an issue.
The only problem was Array Refining into Body.
After emerging from the Divine Tree Secret Realm, Chen Mobai reread the booklet that contained the Underworld Array.
He found that this formation method had a bit of the feel of Ghost Cultivators, but unfortunately, Elder Ming was opening up Dark Water with Luo Yixuan in Rainbow Country, so Chen Mobai couldn’t ask her right away.
He could only try to comprehend it on his own first, better if he could do it without the Enlightenment Tea.
From the Divine Tree Secret Realm this time, he had obtained a Metal Attribute Grand Spell, which he didn’t need, but was very suitable for Duan Shuyu on the battlefield.
He was just about to go to Fire Country, and if he had time, he could have Jiang Zongheng bring this third-generation disciple over to meet.
Thinking like this, Chen Mobai used the Heavenly Communication Device to summon Yue Zutao over.
“Sect Leader, these are the herbs collected by the sect.”
Yue Zutao had prepared everything required for the Infant-Feeding Elixir, and after Chen Mobai checked, he was very satisfied.
After he added the Tai Sui Flesh he had on hand into the collection, he greeted his neighbors Fu Zongjue and Zhou Shengqing, then left Giant Tree Ridge.
Within Back to Sky Valley, Chen Mobai received the grandest welcome from Yan Shaoyin.
“Master Yan, please check these.”
After exchanging a few pleasantries with him, Chen Mobai laid out a Storage Bag full of herbs on the table, and the significantly grayer Yan Shaoyin solemnly took out five sealed bottles.
These were the agreed-upon five Golden Liquid Jade Pills.
Both parties inspected them.
Chen Mobai felt that the amount of Dan Poison in these pills was less than what he experienced the last time he took them, as after all, Yan Shaoyin was an Alchemy Master whose skill improved the more he refined.
After the exchange was complete, Yan Shaoyin invited Chen Mobai to stay a few more days to extend his hospitality, but Chen Mobai, who was very busy, graciously declined.
“Master Yan, I took the Nirvana Dan you refined a few days ago and it indeed raised my Longevity Dao Body to Rank-3 Perfection. But looking at you, it seems like you have yet to take it?”
Before leaving, Chen Mobai spoke meaningfully, and casually demonstrated his near-Core Formation Late Stage Spiritual Power Fluctuation, which caused the increasingly wrinkled Yan Shaoyin’s expression to change subtly.
