Chapter 390: Chapter 213: Ultimate Strength? Origin Power, the Basis of Great Dao Principles! (5k)_2
[On the day you met Luo Shuying, you brought Soul Condensing Pills for her.]
[You also joined the Descending Sect together with Luo Shuying.]
[After joining the Descending Sect, you quickly garnered a large number of fangirls.]
[In the following two years, you refined elixirs daily, while the previously acquired fish seedlings grew rapidly into carp with nascent spiritual intelligence...]
[You accumulated two months of the Great Wisdom in Foolishness state.]
[In the third year, you saw the timing was right and thus defected from the Descending Sect.]
[After defecting from the Descending Sect, you faced pursuit.]
[You took the opportunity to counter-kill all the Martial Emperor-level protectors and erased the two faction leaders.]
[After that, you deceived your devoted followers into entering the Demon-Subduing Pass to fend off enemies.]
[You started attempting to set up minor spirit gathering arrays.]
[Setting up a minor spirit gathering array required a high level of divine sense, at least reaching the keen realm, only then could one observe the subtle changes in the spirit gathering array.]
[In this respect, you just met the requirements.]
[Moreover, setting up a spirit gathering array, unlike ordinary formations, required not just spirit stones, but a special tool, a spirit brush, and spiritual ink to engrave on the target.]
[These tools and array materials were all stored in the Five Elements True Master\'s storage ring.]
[However, the difficulty of the minor spirit gathering array was... it needed to align with the characteristics of the spirit gathering array, adapt to the flow of spiritual power, and nature\'s energy, only then could it be successfully arranged...]
[The entire process was more like drawing a talisman than setting up an array...]
[Although you had outstanding talent in the Dao of Arrays, you were not proficient in the Dao of Talismans, making the initial undertaking of the minor spirit gathering array difficult.]
[Fortunately, with the two-month Great Wisdom state bonus, your comprehension improved, and you took out the spiritual ink and spirit brush, attempting to engrave on the spiritual carp.]
[With keen realm divine sense radiating out, you could feel the subtle spiritual power flow within the spiritual carp...]
[Then, using the spirit brush as a medium, and spiritual ink as energy, you moved your brush with the skill of a dragon, completing it in one go!]
[Boom! With a crisp sound, the spiritual carp unexpectedly exploded into a handful of blood foam.]
[Even the remains were gone, shattering your plan to have tofu carp soup that night...]
[Helplessly, you turned your gaze to the remaining spiritual carp in the pond...]
[The spiritual carp, with nascent intelligence, trembled in fear.]
In the real world, Su Xing saw this scene and couldn\'t help but laugh and cry.
He reflected on the minor spirit gathering array. In essence, it combined the circulation of one\'s spiritual energy with that of nature\'s spiritual energy.
By forming an array, it incorporated nature\'s spiritual energy within the body, allowing for passive cultivation.
However, the subtle details were critically important.
If it were an ordinary array setup, failure was just failure; one could start over.
But setting up a minor spirit gathering array on a living being\'s skin posed significant risks.
Any stroke mistake could disrupt the spiritual energy balance within the being, easily causing a spiritual power riot, leading to an explosive demise.
So, besides the formation, divine sense, and talisman requirements, having acute sensitivity to the flow of spiritual energy was crucial.
Understanding this, Su Xing sighed deeply, saying:
"Truly, one should never underestimate the heroes of the world!"
"This Five Elements True Master was not only extraordinarily perceptive and proficient in formations and talismans, but also well-versed in spiritual energy and divine sense!"
"Could it be this insight led to the creation of such a delicate minor spirit gathering array?"
Su Xing found himself admiring this prodigious cultivator from thousands of years ago.
"Moreover, this further proves the exceptional nature of the minor spirit gathering array!"
"If successful, it would not only greatly speed up cultivation but also deepen one\'s understanding of the spirit gathering array and the Dao of Arrays!"
Su Xing initially intended to make a slight attempt to see if he could learn the minor spirit gathering array.
However, he found it more difficult than he had imagined.
But Su Xing did not intend to give up. At least after reaching the Body Integration Realm, he still wanted to master this minor spirit gathering array, so his cultivation level could improve as quickly as possible!
"However, learning to set up the minor spirit gathering array this time seems difficult..."
"But I can try it out first, and keep improving my divine sense as much as possible!"
With this in mind, Su Xing turned his gaze to the simulation panel.
[In the following months, you tried engraving minor spirit gathering arrays on a few spiritual carp daily.]
[Every day, there were fewer spiritual carp in the pond.]
[Although mastering the minor spirit gathering array yielded little progress, it didn\'t waste much time.]
[One day, you headed to the Blood Demon Cave dungeon, wanting to see the consequences of slaughtering the entire Blood Demon Realm.]
[You infiltrated the Blood Demon Realm, investigating for a long time, confirming that Dragon Protector was not in this realm.]
[Therefore, you swiftly killed your way to the Blood Demon Sect, broke through the Sect Protection Array, and stormed into the forbidden territory of the Blood Demon Sect!]
[You destroyed all the Blood Pools of the Blood Demon Sect, and collected all the blood spiritual liquid, blood spirit stones, and blood condensation pills into your storage ring.]
[You slaughtered the entirety of the Blood Demon Sect afterward.]
[You then returned to the real world, preparing to see how Dragon Protector would react...]
[Besides wandering the Void Domain daily, you started observing the external situation.]
[Until a month later... you heard about a horrifying blood sacrifice event at the southern border of Great Xia.]
