No Way People Find Cultivation Difficult, Right?

Chapter 60: The Fourth Level of Qi Refinement, Array Formation

At the rear cliff of Qingyun Dao Sect.

Ye Ping was rather excited.

He carefully flipped open the secret manual in his hand.

The insights looked very new and didn’t seem old at all.

However, Ye Ping knew that it was the insights that Wang Zhuoyu wrote down on the spot so they were naturally new.

He flipped the book open.

Lines of beautiful handwriting appeared.

He saw three large words.

“Supreme Array Formation”

What was an array formation?

It was the evolution of incredible power by adjusting the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and using things as arrays.

However, what was a real array formation?

Array formations were divided into three levels too.

Everything could be used as an array formation.

All things were array formations and if one’s array formation was like thunder, they would be considered a master of array formations.

That was the first realm.

Making heaven, earth, the moon and the sun array formation tools was part of the Dao of array formations, which requires the complement of array formation diagrams and array formation tools. The stronger the tools, the greater the power and the more perfect the array formation.

Between heaven and earth, the strongest array formation would be heaven, earth, the sun, the moon, and the rivers. The Dao of array formations would be used to arrange the layout of the world. A master of array formations who could do that would be able to kill the true immortals of the world.

That was the second level.

Turning oneself into an array formation.

How to turn everything into an array formation?

How to make heaven and earth array formations?

‘I’m the strongest array artifact in this world.’

Turning oneself into an array formation would be flawless and one would be able to do whatever they pleased. They would not be restricted to killing arrays and trapping arrays. All array formations would be effective and everything else would cease to exist, except the master himself.

That was the third level. It was also known as the Divine master of array formations.

——

The opening table of contents contained more than 300 words, but it made Ye Ping’s blood boil.

Turning everything into an array formation.

Turning heaven and earth into array formations.

Turning oneself into an array formation.

‘Look, look, look.’

‘Look, this is what a hidden sect is like.’

‘Look, this is what an expert of a hidden sect is like.’

‘Can ordinary people pen down such insights?’

Ye Ping was not bragging. Ordinary people would not be able to come up with such insights.

At this moment, Ye Ping was incredibly excited.

He continued to flip through the insights and started studying the contents carefully.

Previously in the Sutra Pavilion, Ye Ping had read books about array formations, but they mostly contained ordinary knowledge about array formations.

However, Ye Ping also knew a little bit about array formations.

Simply put, the so-called array formations were the placement of objects according to the array diagram and then generating unparalleled power through the regulation of spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The object would then be the array artifact.

The array diagram represented the perfection of the array formation. The more perfect the array diagram, the lesser flaws in the array formation.

The array artifact represented the core of the array formation and the stronger the array artifact, the greater the power of the array formation.

However, Ye Ping was shocked about something.

All three types of array formation Dao in the insights that Wang Zhuoyu had given him did not require any array artifacts.

It would be easy to obtain an array diagram, but array artifacts were extremely rare.

In other words, if one mastered the Dao of array formations, there was no need to buy any array artifacts.

‘What in this world can make one happier than a free gift?’

‘Calm down, calm down.’

Ye Ping continued to look at the insights at the back.

Soon, a line of words appeared in sight.

“Everything is an array formation.”

Those words got Ye Ping even more excited.

He looked at them carefully.

He was extremely serious and would think through each word carefully.

Two whole hours passed.

Ye Ping finally understood that Wang Zhuoyu had given him an incredible book of insights.

The first step was the formation of arrays using all things in the world.

It was using everything in the world as array artifacts.

Everything was an array.

However, Ye Ping understood that the steps seemed simple on paper but they were actually very difficult to execute in real life.

It was because in order to reach that stage, one would have to awaken the array talisman.

The so-called array talisman was a medium of using everything as an array.

There were a total of 3,600 array talismans which corresponded to the various changes in heaven and earth.

They could be comprehended as symbols too.

Heaven, earth, sun, moon, mountain, lake, river, stream, grass, wood, and essence.

There were a total of 3,600 of them.

They could be separated or combined together to form countless array texts.

Hence, everything could be turned into array formations.

Thinking of this, Ye Ping finally understood that the seemingly most ordinary Wang Zhuoyu had actually taught him the most profound insights.

Although Su Changyu had imparted the Sword Dao, it varied in complexity.

The same went for the Dao of alchemy that Xu Luochen had taught him too.

However, the Dao of array formations that Wang Zhuoyu imparted to him was full of mystery.

Wang Zhuoyu had annotated in the insights that the 3,600 array symbols were extremely difficult to obtain and that one could not be eager. They could only try to comprehend a few of them.

Ye Ping tried to figure it out on his own for several hours.

After he was almost done, he put the insights in his arms.

Immediately afterwards, he began to comprehend the array symbols.

According to the array diagram in the insights, he used his longsword to draw out the diagram before sitting cross-legged in the center. He then hurriedly added a large amount of spiritual energy that surged out from his spirit meridian onto the array diagram.

The Torch Dragon Immortal Aperture was also releasing spiritual energy continuously, thus maintaining the effects of the array diagram.

Just like that, Ye Ping began his epiphany.

On the other hand, Wang Zhuoyu sat on the desk.

The candle flame flickered and he stared at the book in his hand, his eyes filled with desire.

“Ah, if only I can master the array formation symbols. Even if I can master just one of the 3,600 of them, I’d be able to become a master of array formations. I don’t have to attend the assessment at all.”

“The top master of array formations has only mastered one array symbol that could be used for creating a nourishment array formation. However, even then, he’s an elite who’s above the countless powerhouses of Qingzhou.”

Wang Zhuoyu’s heart was filled with infinite emotions.

The book in his hand was labeled “3,600 Array Symbols”.

The lineage of array formations also had a qualification division, but it was not in terms of comprehensive abilities but array symbols. Mastering array symbols would be equivalent to mastering the core of an array formation because each symbol came with an array diagram that could enhance the corresponding array formation.

For example, the ‘nourishing’ array symbol would allow one to directly obtain a ‘nourishing’ array diagram that could nourish one’s health, body, or pet.

At the same time, one would also be able to set up a great nourishing array with added benefits like the prolonging of one’s life and nourishing one’s physical body. Even an ordinary cultivator would be able to arrange a nourishing array formation with the ‘nourishing’ array symbol.

Mortal fetuses could become immortal bodies.

That was the terrifying thing about array formations.

Anyone who could master an array symbol would be able to immediately become a famous figure of Qingzhou. Many powerhouses, including Daoist Siji, would worship him because the array formations could be used to do countless incredible things.

However, at this moment, Wang Zhuoyu put down the book in his hand.

He muttered, “If I can really master the array symbol, which one should I choose?”

He began slipping into deep thought. Whenever he was bored, he would start fantasizing.

“Should I choose the time array formation?”

Wang Zhuoyu thought to himself.

However, his face soon turned red.

There was no hierarchy among the 3,600 array symbols because each one would have a divine effect. However, even then, the lineage of array formations still had a list of top ten array symbols.

The time array symbol was ranked first because it was different from the others. A peerless array formation master would be able to alter time as he pleased. How terrifying would it be?

100 years would allow one to learn plenty of things. Even if they didn’t study anything, practicing the sword for a hundred years would make even Su Changyu an expert swordsman.

Hence, Wang Zhuoyu felt ashamed of his thoughts.

He felt like a scholar who was still preparing for the imperial examinations but was already thinking about what he should do when he became the emperor in the future.

However, Wang Zhuoyu soon retracted his attention and looked at the rear cliff. He couldn’t actually see the cliff and was merely looking in that direction.

“Little Junior Brother, please don’t blame your Senior Brother. I was forced into this but don’t worry, once I pass the assessment, I’ll definitely teach you the Dao of array formations properly.”

Wang Zhuoyu muttered to himself.

After that, he stopped saying anything and continued to read the book and study the great Dao of array formations.

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was late at night.

Ye Ping sat alone under the cliff.

He had already had an epiphany for four hours.

However, he still had no clues.

Having an epiphany of array symbols was indeed much harder than he imagined.

However, Ye Ping remained calm and didn’t let his imagination run wild either. Instead, he continued to outline the diagram again and again.

Just like that, 20 hours passed.

Ye Ping outlined the array diagram 36 times.

However, the array formation did not appear.

But his cultivation level had officially broken through the fourth level of Qi Refinement.

With the enhancement of the Torch Dragon Immortal Aperture, Ye Ping didn’t have to meditate and could cultivate automatically.

If he meditated, the speed would be much faster.

However, when Ye Ping had just broken through the fourth level, a gentle breeze swept at his face.

In an instant, the array diagram in his mind began radiating light.
