Chapter 138 Parasite Array
Several months passed in the Yangxin Pavilion in the blink of an eye.
Qin Xiao and Fairy Yaoguang both breathed a sigh of relief.
"I see……"
Fairy Yaoguang seemed to understand something and murmured to herself.
Her stunningly beautiful face flushed slightly with excitement.
Qin Xiao traced lines in the air with his fingertips, the five elements of spiritual energy intertwining with starlight, outlining a complex three-dimensional array.
"Combining the scroll theory with our deductions over the past few days, the real 'Reverse Yuan Anti-Spirit Array' should be a 'parasitic array' nested in the core array eye of the Devouring Spirit Array."
Qin Xiao's voice was calm and steady, "It doesn't directly destroy the main formation, but rather uses the torrent of spiritual energy absorbed by the main formation to 'bridge' at its key nodes, guiding some of the spiritual energy to flow out and be used for its own purposes. Over a long period of time, it gradually disrupts its stability."
"What Senior Uncle Xingyan said about 'the array diagram being on Shou Mountain'..."
Fairy Yaoguang interjected, her beautiful eyes shining brightly, "I have repeatedly recalled the sect's secrets, and combined with several subtle hints in the scroll, the so-called 'Shoushan' is very likely not the name of a mountain, but refers to 'the mountain of the battle's head'."
The two looked at each other and saw the excitement in each other's eyes.
The direction is clearer now!
But then, real-world problems came into play.
"Even if the theoretical array diagram is deduced, the difficulty of actually placing it in the core of the Soul Devouring Array is no different from that of an ordinary person ascending to heaven."
Fairy Yaoguang calmed down. "First, we need to reach the core of the Heavenly Pillar Mountain array, which means facing unknown guardians and numerous restrictions. Second, many of the materials needed to set up the array are ancient treasures, which are probably extinct now. Finally, the array setup process needs to be carried out under the full operation of the Soul Devouring Array, which places unimaginable demands on the setter's cultivation, mental focus, and teamwork."
Qin Xiao remained silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Difficult, but not impossible. Regarding the materials, the Xuanji Pavilion might have some in its secret collection; even if not, substitutes can be found, or resources can be concentrated to re-refine them. As for the guardians and the restrictions..."
A cold glint flashed in his eyes: "Thousands of years have passed, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has been depleted. The guardians of the formation may not be able to maintain their full strength. Moreover, we may not need to defeat all the guardians head-on."
Fairy Yaoguang nodded: "Your Majesty is right. This matter cannot be rushed; we must plan it carefully and make the most thorough preparations."
"Exactly."
Qin Xiao said, "Next, we will split up. Fairy, you continue to recuperate and make a list of materials that may be needed. I will use the existing resources to improve my own and Qingluan's cultivation as soon as possible, and try to refine some special magical artifacts and array plates that may be useful."
"it is good."
Fairy Yaoguang agreed, then hesitated for a moment before whispering, "Your Majesty should also take care to rest and not overwork yourself."
Qin Xiao smiled slightly and gently stroked her cheek: "I know. You know too."
After a brief moment of tenderness, Qin Xiao left Yangxin Pavilion and summoned the women.
He will inform everyone about the progress of his study with Yao Guang and their next steps.
The women were all overjoyed. But upon hearing about the difficulties and dangers involved, they couldn't help but worry for Qin Xiao and Yao Guang.
"My lord, what is the cultivation level of the guardian of Tianzhu Mountain?"
Yu Qingyi asked the key question.
Qin Xiao shook his head: "I don't know. But judging from Senior Xingyan's solemn reminder, he is at least at the Nascent Soul stage, or even higher. However, after thousands of years of weakening due to the depletion of spiritual energy, his condition must be poor. This is our opportunity, but also our risk."
He looked at everyone, his tone solemn: "Therefore, before Yao Guang and I finally head to Tianzhu Mountain, we need to improve our overall strength as much as possible. I will personally guide you and open the inner treasury's top-tier resources to help you attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul stage!"
All the women trembled, their beautiful eyes flashing with astonishing light.
Nascent Soul!
That is the true difference between immortals and mortals, with a lifespan of a thousand years and a great increase in supernatural powers!
If she can achieve this, not only will her own strength leap forward, but she will also be able to better assist her husband!
"Your Majesty, I will certainly do my utmost!"
The six women responded in unison.
"Wuya, Yunli, you must not slack off in your duties in the outer court. You need to select and send more reliable talents to the inner palace. At the same time, you must not neglect your own cultivation."
Qin Xiao then gave instructions to Wu Ya and Yun Li, who had recently performed well and had been promoted to assist in managing the outer courtyard.
"We will obey Your Majesty's decree!"
The two women respectfully agreed.
With the arrangements in place, Qin Xiao didn't delay any longer and immediately began a well-organized upgrade plan.
……
In the following months, the entire rear hall of Zichen Palace was engulfed in a cultivation frenzy.
Qin Xiao was not in a hurry to achieve the goal that all six women needed to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Instead, they devised a gradual approach.
First, the inner treasury was opened, and top-tier resources suitable for Golden Core cultivators from the Xuanji Pavilion's secret collection were allocated.
At the same time, based on the individual spiritual root attributes and cultivation techniques of the six women, and combining the Xuanji Pavilion classics with his own insights, he tailored their subsequent cultivation methods and breakthrough techniques.
Qin Xiao passed on the "Gengjin Breaking Void Technique" to Luo Qingluan, emphasizing the refinement of the Golden Core's sharpness to forge an unparalleled sword heart for the shattering of the core and the formation of the Nascent Soul.
Yu Qingyi possesses a water-based celestial spiritual root. Qin Xiao bestowed upon her the "Mysterious Ice Shaping Divine Technique," using the Mysterious Ice Soul as a guide to nurture life force amidst extreme cold and stabilize her divine soul.
Qin Xiao instructed Mu Ziyan in the "Kun Yuan Zai Wu Gong" to harmonize the earth's thick soil and the Heavenly One True Water, thus forging the nascent soul foundation that can encompass and carry all things.
Yu Fengling possesses three spiritual roots: metal, wood, and water. Though mixed, they are dynamic and agile. Qin Xiao guides her through the "Three Powers Returning to One Path," leading the three spiritual roots to generate and circulate in harmony, ultimately returning to one.
Li Anning possesses a wind-spirit root, making him swift and perceptive. Qin Xiao taught him the "Xunfeng Wuxiang Jue" (a technique for sensing the changes in the flow of energy in the heavens and earth), enabling him to comprehend these changes.
Li Changle possesses a fire spiritual root. Under Qin Xiao's guidance, he learned the "Li Huo Nirvana Sutra," which teaches how to conceive new life amidst extreme destruction, pursuing a nascent soul like fire to burn away shackles and achieve nirvana and sublimation.
With the cultivation method established and resources plentiful,
The rest is just a matter of patience and meticulous work, along with key guidance.
Qin Xiao did not have the six women go into seclusion for arduous cultivation.
He was well aware of the wonders of the "Hehuan Immortal Scripture" and understood that dual cultivation was not only about physical pleasure, but also an excellent way to verify the Great Dao, complement spiritual power, and merge the soul.
Especially when facing a critical juncture concerning the foundation of one's path to enlightenment, such as breaking through the core to form the nascent soul, a harmonious state of mind, pure spiritual power, and a stable spirit are all indispensable.
The Hehuan Immortal Scripture can provide irreplaceable assistance in these aspects.
Therefore, in the following months, Qin Xiao's daily routine consisted of guiding the women in their cultivation, handling necessary palace affairs, and taking turns with the six women...
After Fairy Yaoguang's injuries were completely healed, she also joined in.
In addition, he often discussed philosophy with the women, sharing his ancient experiences and insights into the unique techniques of Xuanji Pavilion, which greatly benefited the women.
With this intense mutual assistance, the six women's cultivation levels improved at a visible rate.
The golden core is constantly being refined, the spiritual power becomes more condensed, and the divine soul grows stronger and more stable day by day.
Several months later, Luo Qingluan and Yu Qingyi, who had the highest cultivation levels, were the first to reach the barrier of the Nascent Soul stage...
