Chapter 1232: Chapter 1236: Formation Setup!

After a month of tranquility, Xia Liu sensed he had the potential to break through to a six-tier array master.

Under the twinkling stars, Xia Liu, dressed in white, sat cross-legged beneath a maple tree.

The night wind was cold, caressing his solitary form.

Among the flowing silver waterfall, Xia Liu’s palms formed seals.

In an instant, an endless stream of array seals burst forth from his meridians.

The number quickly reached four hundred.

“Hah!”

The power of divine consciousness surging further, five hundred array seals surged in the invisible space.

Xia Liu recited an ancient and solemn incantation, and in a flash, the stars shone brightly.

Amidst the clarity, several more array seals erupted from within Xia Liu’s body.

Thirty seals!

Fifty seals!

A hundred seals!

An additional hundred array seals surrounded him.

The total reached six hundred seals.

Six-tier array master! Achieved!

However, Xia Liu didn’t maintain it for long, as the surrounding array seals dispersed.

From condensing seals to completion, it was a seamless operation that severely drained his divine consciousness.

To converge six hundred array seals.

His spiritual energy was also heavily depleted.

“Phew! Just one more tier to go!”

Xia Liu exhaled a long breath.

Nearing two months.

He finally took that step, raising his cultivation to a six-tier array master.

Feeling satisfied, he left the mountain gate, heading deep into the Xianggu Mountain Range.

He didn’t want to waste the spiritual energy within the spirit gathering array.

During his recuperation, he wandered around to adjust his emotional fluctuations.

The round moon was replaced by the flame sun.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month passed.

Today, Xia Liu emerged from the forest.

Upon his emergence, a contented smile formed at the corner of his mouth.

His internal aura was stable, and the cultivation of an array master which was hard to sense, also stabilized.

Within the Osmanthus Sect, Tie Shan and Guo Po were watching the disciples practice in the plaza.

Even though they couldn’t cultivate the Immeasurable Sword Art.

Reaching the peak of Martial Dao made them notable figures in this world.

The disciples of the Osmanthus Sect were very satisfied.

Becoming martial artists already brought them immense joy.

While observing the cultivation of others, Guo Po suddenly sensed a change in the surrounding world.

An indistinctly sinister aura invisibly permeated throughout.

Under this aura, even breathing became incredibly difficult.

“Elder Guo! Things seem to be amiss!”

Tie Shan came to his senses and immediately instructed everyone to be on guard.

The subtle pervasive pressure rattled his entire body.

Imagining what was causing such terror.

“Don’t worry, it’s Xia Liu.”

Guo Po smiled faintly, while using his movement technique, intending to witness the birth of a legend.

Tie Shan and everyone in the Osmanthus Sect followed Guo Po as well.

They all wanted to know what Xia Liu was about to do.

At the old site of Osmanthus Village, Li Zhi and villagers stood around the perimeter.

Feeling unwell while working, they came out to check.

Only to see Xia Liu standing atop the central utility pole in the village.

What was he about to do?

“Brother Xia Liu, is the pressure within the space emanating from you?”

Upon arriving at the scene, Zhang Xiaoxue and others immediately inquired.

“Seems nine out of ten, what exactly is he trying to do?”

Li Qianqian couldn’t make out Xia Liu’s intentions.

He fell silent, making the surroundings extremely oppressive as if trying to provoke everyone with this method?

“Is he setting up an array?”

After reaching the scene, Guo Po immediately sensed the slightly familiar scent.

That was the scent of an array!

“Array? Like the spirit gathering array?”

“What kind of array? Why is it so secretive?”

“What exactly is this guy up to?”

…..

The women were puzzled, they had previously thought Xia Liu wasn’t being productive, always dragging them to play.

This guy disappeared for a long time and caused such a commotion upon his return, what is he up to…..

“Ahem, since everyone is here, let me explain.”

Seeing the crowd had gathered, Xia Liu cleared his throat and said, “Next, I’m going to set up an array, entering this region will be a bit complex in the future.”

“Huh? Xia Liu, what are you doing?”

“Won’t it be too complicated? We won’t be able to operate it.”

“Yeah, a lot of people in the village haven’t even been to school, they can’t write their names.”

Li Zhi and the others spoke up.

They weren’t worried about Xia Liu doing something reckless.

They were just afraid it would be too complicated for them to handle, which might burden Xia Liu in the future.

“Uncle Li, rest assured, this complexity is not as you think. Once the array is set up, anyone entering the village boundary must have our internal approval. As for thieves and such, they’ll never set foot in the village in their lifetime.”

Xia Liu explained patiently.

“Ah! This is great! It’s like setting up a checkpoint.”

Li Zhi immediately understood.

As for the concept of arrays, he didn’t understand, nor did the other villagers.

Perhaps only the martial artists understood.

“Elder Xia, can you really set up an array?”

Guo Po’s emotions couldn’t calm down for quite some time.

Xia Liu had truly succeeded.

Once the array is set up, it will be the most innovative array in thousands of years.

He is also the only array master.

“Yes, the array I’m going to set up next is called the Imperial Sky Guarding Array.”

“What a domineering name!”

“It’s terrifying! To be able to set up an array, Brother Xia Liu is formidable!”

“Hah! Brother Xia Liu is truly fearsome!”

…..

The village youth, all disciples of the Osmanthus Sect, found the clan protection formation of the Guo Family fascinating.

Never thought Xia Liu was going to set up an array today too.

Hearing this name, it seemed even more powerful than the Guo Family’s clan protection great formation.

On the scene, only Guo Po knew Xia Liu was beyond being terrifying.

In heaven and earth, he was the one and only.

“Concerning the array, once the setup is complete, I’ll explain more to you. For now, I’m starting the formation setup!”

Upon the order for setup, Xia Liu spread his hands, and then the seal decrees quickly rose and fell.

Invisibly, seven hundred and thirty array seals floated in the space.

With the surge of divine consciousness, each array seal scattered to its designated position.

Among them, a slightly larger array seal landed on the cliff opposite Osmanthus Sect.

One fell at the old site entrance, on the road leading to Shanyan Village.

Two other slightly larger array seals flew to the hill behind the villa and the previously used chicken farm hill.

After four larger array seals were seated, more than seven hundred array seals continued to float and finally stabilized one after another in position.

From a high altitude view, it was visible that the positions of these array seals sketched an incomprehensible formation map.

“Hah!”

With a shout, the array seals vanished into the ground.

Shortly after, at the newly designated four positions, a beam of white light immediately shot forth.

The white columns soared to the sky, the area quaked.

Seeing the timing was right, Xia Liu’s divine sense surged, and a beautiful spirit sword appeared above his head.

Next was a bone fan.

These two items appeared and flew swiftly to the front and back positions of the array….
