Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Successful Cultivation, First-Grade Spiritual Array Master
"Yo, little friend, a Spirit Array Master?"
"What kind of rare profession is this?"
Sensing the words on the manual with his spiritual perception, Yao Lao immediately became very interested.
After all, Lin Yan's system could always obtain all sorts of strange and mysterious things.
And many of these things originated from the Great Thousand World, a much higher plane.
Faced with these kinds of items, even Yao Lao was seeing them for the first time.
Moreover, every time he encountered something new, he would always gain new insights.
So at this moment, he directly transformed into his spiritual form, emerging from the ring and floating in midair, full of curiosity.
"Senior Yao Lao, a Spirit Array Master is a rather special and advanced profession in the Great Thousand World."
"Just like Alchemists in the Dou Qi Continent, they are highly valuable, and many major forces require them."
"The difference, however, is that while great forces in the Dou Qi Continent need Alchemists for the pills they refine, the great forces of the Great Thousand World need Spirit Array Masters to set up spirit arrays."
"They can arrange various types of spirit arrays, such as offensive arrays for attacking, defensive arrays for protection, and even Spirit Convergence Arrays for cultivation.
Spirit Array Masters can construct all of these. That's why Spirit Array Masters are highly sought after in the Great Thousand World. If one can master this craft, it holds immense benefits for the future."
Lin Yan had no reason to hide anything from Yao Lao.
After hearing Yao Lao's inquiry, he smiled and explained the uses of spirit arrays in detail.
"Oh? It's actually that impressive?"
Yao Lao's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
If these spirit arrays were truly as formidable as Lin Yan described, then it was indeed an extremely powerful profession.
After all, such a profession had vast applications and could be used in most situations. No wonder it was regarded as one of the high-ranking professions in the Great Thousand World.
"In that case, congratulations, little friend, for acquiring another remarkable skill."
Yao Lao smiled as he clasped his hands in a congratulatory manner.
Lin Yan responded.
"Senior Yao Lao, I haven't mastered it yet. Although I now have the cultivation method, whether or not I can actually learn it remains uncertain. After all, this profession heavily depends on talent."
Yao Lao shook his head with a chuckle and said, "Talent? Do you lack talent, little friend?"
"Forgive my bluntness, but among all the people I have ever met, your talent is by far the most monstrous."
"So in my opinion, with your talent, learning this craft shouldn't be a problem at all."
Lin Yan merely smiled and said nothing more.
Then, he directly opened the Fundamentals of a Spirit Array Master manual and began carefully reading through its contents.
"A Spirit Array, simply put, is the resonance of spiritual energy in a special manner, thereby triggering the surrounding spiritual energy of the heavens and earth to achieve offensive and defensive effects."
"The higher the grade of the Spirit Array, the more difficult it is to construct. There are two essential components."
"The first is the Array Diagram."
"The formation of an array is akin to a grand construction project. Without a complete blueprint, there is no foundation to begin the work."
"The second component is the Spiritual Seals."
"The higher the grade of the Spirit Array, the greater the number of Spiritual Seals required.
A Spirit Array Master's ability to control and condense more Spiritual Seals is one of the key standards in determining their skill and talent."
"..."
Lin Yan carefully examined the content, while Yao Lao also widened his eyes in curiosity as he read along.
By the time both of them had thoroughly finished reading the contents of the book, Yao Lao's understanding of Spirit Arrays had reached a new height. His perception of this technique had also grown considerably.
"So this is a Spirit Array Master? Truly impressive."
"If you can master it, little friend, you will undoubtedly reap immense benefits!"
Yao Lao couldn't help but voice his admiration as he spoke to Lin Yan.
"Indeed, this Spirit Array technique is truly remarkable."
"Senior Yao Lao, I am going to attempt cultivating it now."
"I hope I can successfully learn this craft."
Lin Yan felt a surge of anticipation.
After responding to Yao Lao, he immediately began his training.
To cultivate Spirit Arrays, the first step was to condense Spiritual Seals.
If one couldn't even form a Spiritual Seals, then becoming a Spirit Array Master would be out of the question.
Lin Yan had previously read in the book that an average beginner could generally condense their first Spiritual Seals in about half an hour.
If they could achieve this, it would be considered proof of possessing some talent in Spirit Arrays.
However, when Lin Yan began cultivating, he quickly realized that his ability to condense Spiritual Seals was abnormally fast.
Following the method outlined in the book, Lin Yan found that the process resembled the way he cultivated the Limitless Death Seal, with only minor differences in the details.
With slight modifications, he could adjust accordingly.
So, after making some minor adjustments, he began condensing Spiritual Seals.
In less than half an hour, he had already formed more than ten of them.
With a flick of his palm, as he gazed at the over ten Spiritual Seals hovering above his hand, even Lin Yan himself was momentarily stunned.
It seemed… learning Spirit Arrays wasn't as difficult as it was made out to be?
"As expected."
"Little friend, your talent is simply outrageous."
Yao Lao couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Although he had already suspected as much, witnessing it in reality still left him feeling somewhat shocked.
Because earlier, after reading the introduction, Yao Lao had also attempted to condense Spiritual Seals alongside Lin Yan.
But the result was… while Lin Yan had already condensed more than ten Spiritual Seals in an instant, Yao Lao had only managed to form a single one.
"Little friend, look at this."
With a helpless chuckle, Yao Lao showed Lin Yan his own result.
"It's not that learning Spirit Arrays is too easy—it's that your talent is just too absurd."
Lin Yan couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile.
Then, he continued condensing Spiritual Seals.
His speed was astonishingly fast, and as he grew more proficient, his efficiency kept increasing further.
For seven whole days, he immersed himself in his research.
After seven days, not only was he able to fluently condense Spiritual Seals at high speed in battle, but he had also completely mastered the two First-Grade Spirit Arrays that the system had gifted him.
Inside his room—Lin Yan paused for a moment before quickly setting up two Spirit Arrays.
One glowed white, while the other burned red.
The white array was the First-Grade Spirit Convergence Array, meant for cultivation.
Sitting within it allowed one to absorb more of the surrounding spiritual energy.
The red array, on the other hand, was the First-Grade Flame Array, designed for combat.
Based on Lin Yan's tests, although it was only a First-Grade Spirit Array, if someone accidentally stepped into it, even a Middle Earthly Yuan Stage cultivator might struggle to escape unscathed.
"Next—It's time to attempt breaking through to the Heavenly Yuan Stage."
Sitting directly within the Spirit Convergence Array, Lin Yan took a few pills to accelerate his cultivation speed.
Truthfully, he had already been at the Late Earthly Yuan Stage for some time, and lately, he had been feeling that his breakthrough was imminent.
Now, with the help of the Spirit Convergence Array, it was finally time to complete his advancement.
