Chapter 268
Cloud Medicine Continent!
Jiahe and Qingyanjing spent more than half a month in the teleportation space.
During this time, Qing Yanjing taught all her understanding and insights into formations to Jiahe.
What Qing Yanjing found most incredible was Jiahe's comprehension ability; it was truly terrifying.
Although Qing Yanjing did not teach Jiahe the true core array knowledge of the Futu Ancient Clan, Jiahe seemed to be on the verge of advancing to the level of a high-level Grandmaster Spirit Array Master simply by mastering various arrays.
On this day, both Qing Yanjing and Jiahe sensed a powerful fluctuation of spiritual energy and came out of their rooms.
Jiahe caught a faint medicinal scent coming from ahead of the passage and said softly, "The Cloud Medicine Continent should be just ahead."
Qing Yanjing nodded slightly and said, "Yes, we've finally left the Hundred Spirits Continent!"
Meanwhile, on the other side, on a continent infinitely far away from the Hundred Spirits Continent, lies the Maha Ancient Clan.
Nestled within one of the mountain ranges is a magnificent and exquisite architectural complex.
A monstrous beast streaked across the sky, flying towards the tallest tower.
Before long, a man dressed in black jumped off the back of the monster and entered the top of the tower.
Behind the screen, a figure sat cross-legged, his body radiating spiritual energy and exuding a terrifying pressure, as if everything around him was under his control.
"Any news?" the figure behind the screen asked calmly.
The man in black, who had just entered, cupped his hands and said, "Young Master, news has come from the Lu family patriarch of Tianchen Continent. It has been confirmed that he is on Bailing Continent!"
The man referred to as the young master is none other than Maha Tian, the leading figure of the younger generation of the Maha Ancient Clan!
Maha Tian was powerful, ruthless and decisive, and highly regarded by the Maha Ancient Clan Chief and other elders.
It has now been confirmed that Maha Tian is the next patriarch of the Maha Ancient Clan.
Therefore, Maha Tian now wields immense influence within the Maha Ancient Clan.
The spiritual power surrounding Maha Tian gradually dissipated, and a dazzling crimson light flashed in his eyes in an instant.
He stood up and stepped out from behind the screen, looking at the man in the tight-fitting clothes and asking, "Hundred Spirits Continent? Where is that?"
The Hundred Spirits Continent is only a medium-sized continent in the Great Thousand Worlds. It has some fame in that area, but if placed in the entire Great Thousand Worlds, it is not even worth the attention of a super power like the Maha Ancient Clan!
The man in the tight-fitting clothes explained, "It's a medium-sized continent, very far from my clan. Young Master, you don't need to go there personally. I've already sent someone to the Hundred Spirits Continent!"
Maha Tian looked at him coldly and said, "You sent people? You sent so many people back then but you still couldn't capture them, and you didn't even reveal their final location. Do you think I can still trust you?"
The man suddenly knelt down: "Please punish me, young master!"
Maha Tian glanced at him indifferently, "Have someone make preparations. I will personally go to the Hundred Spirits Continent."
"Also, the Great Thousand Pill Gathering is coming up soon. How are the alchemists in the clan preparing?" Maha Tian asked.
The man broke out in a cold sweat from the look in Maha Tian's eyes, and immediately replied, "All the alchemists in the clan are ready and can set off at any time."
Maha Tian nodded slightly and said, "That's good. Inform them that they will come with me to the Hundred Spirits Continent this time. Once I've finished my business, I'll immediately set off for the Pill God Clan!"
"Yes, young master!" The man got up and walked out of the tower.
Maha Tian stood by the window, gazing at the distant mountains where spiritual energy gathered and churned into clouds. He murmured, "Qing Yanjing, you cannot escape my grasp!"
...The Cloud Medicine Continent is several times larger than the Hundred Spirits Continent. This is a medicinal herb base near the Pill God Clan.
Even without the Grand Thousand Pill Gathering, this place still attracts countless guests every day.
When Jiahe finally stepped out of the teleportation array and onto this continent, he realized why this place had become a renowned medicinal herb continent throughout the vast world.
"The spiritual energy of the earth and wood here is so rich and vibrant that even the most ordinary medicinal herbs, if planted here, would eventually become spiritual herbs!" Jiahe exclaimed with some emotion.
Qing Yanjing said, "Such a continent is rare even in the vast world."
"However, according to legend, this Cloud Medicine Continent was not formed naturally, but was the place where the ancestors of the Pill God Clan planted medicinal herbs. After millions of years of cultivation and maintenance by the Pill God Clan, it finally formed into such a top-level medicinal garden."
Gah looked toward the distant mountains, where a verdant medicinal garden lay nestled, and everywhere he looked, there were spiritual herbs.
The fragrance of the medicine wafted into the air and transformed into the shapes of beasts, chasing each other—a truly wondrous sight.
Before long, Jiahe said, "It seems that the ancestor of the Dan Shen Clan was also a grandmaster of spirit arrays. The mountain ranges converged into array patterns. If I am not mistaken, the Yunyao Continent is a super array."
Qing Yanjing blinked her beautiful eyes, looked at the distant mountains and rivers, and carefully observed them. After a long while, she said, "You can actually see the formation from the mountains and rivers?"
In this vast world, spirit array masters are divided into multiple levels, with the early level five spirit array masters being considered only at the basic level.
Only after reaching the level of Spirit Array Master can one be considered to have achieved some mastery in the Spirit Array lineage. Above this level, there is a corresponding Supreme Realm.
Only after reaching the level of a Grandmaster of Spirit Arrays can one be considered to have the strength and status to establish a sect in the Great Thousand World.
Most spirit array masters consider their cultivation to have reached its limit when they reach the Heavenly Grade Spirit Array Master level.
Many people get stuck at the watershed of becoming a high-level Heavenly Grade Spirit Array Master. Only those who can cross that threshold can be considered to have transformed into dragons when they encounter favorable winds and clouds.
Qing Yanjing has an extremely high talent for spirit arrays and entered the realm of high-level spirit array master at a young age.
Reaching the level of a Grandmaster of Spirit Arrays is a thousand times more difficult than before.
A key difference between a Grandmaster of Spirit Arrays and a Master of Spirit Arrays is that they comprehend the forms of mountains and rivers.
By following the natural order and using the corresponding spiritual energy to condense the array patterns, one can create the strongest celestial array.
Qing Yanjing himself could only slightly adapt to the timing and terrain to set up the formation, but he could not rely entirely on the power of heaven and earth.
She hadn't expected that Jiahe, who had only been exposed to the spirit array for a short time, would already be able to discern the terrain of this area.
Jiahe looked at Qing Yanjing with some doubt and asked, "Can't you tell?"
Qing Yanjing paused slightly, then snorted softly, "Of course I can see it, I just didn't expect that you could see it too."
Gah immediately sniffed and said, "Why do I smell something?"
Qing Yanjing frowned, sniffed herself, and asked, "What's that smell?"
Gah laughed and said, "Sour grapes, you seem a little jealous of my talent in spirit array cultivation!"
Qing Yanjing was so angry when she heard Jiahe's words that she almost died of anger.
"You... I taught you quite a few of your spirit arrays, and now you dare to mock me?" Qing Yanjing said, somewhat indignantly. (End of Chapter)
