CHAPTER 611: CHAPTER 213 FOUR-COLOR ARRAY SEVEN STARS DEMON-BINDING ARRAY (6K)_3

Moreover, the Demon Beast meat there, whether in terms of quality or spiritual essence, cannot be compared to those outside the border.

Everyone took their seats one by one, Xuanyuan Muqian and Lu Yaoyao sat together. Having not seen each other for years, the two chatted incessantly in whispers, looking very close.

Xuanyuan Yichen then sat beside Zhou Qing with a warm smile on his face and said softly, "Brother Zhou, what brings you here this time?"

Zhou Qing replied with a smile, "Following Master Lin to broaden my horizon."

Xuanyuan Yichen suddenly understood, nodded, and said, "To be brought by Master Lin, it seems you have considerable talent in the art of arrays. At least, you’ve caught the master’s eye. Congratulations, congratulations."

Zhou Qing quickly waved his hand modestly, "It’s all just luck."

Xuanyuan Yichen raised his wine cup and handed it to Zhou Qing, saying, "Let’s not talk about it for now, I toast to you!"

Zhou Qing declined, "I don’t drink alcohol, I’ll use tea instead."

Xuanyuan Yichen was slightly stunned, somewhat puzzled.

He remembered that during the last visit to the White Jade Taixu Courtyard, a few people gathered and drank heartily, chatting happily. Why had he suddenly refrained from alcohol now?

However, he did not ask further, just smiled slightly, and the two clinked cups.

Afterward, he quietly introduced the others present to Zhou Qing, such as the disciples beside the masters, all of whom were one-color array masters, with Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, and so forth.

...

Unexpectedly, Jiang Pojun came early the next morning.

"Brother Zhou, Master Lin requests your presence!" Jiang Pojun called from outside.

Zhou Qing, who was sound asleep, did not expect the repair to be so urgent. He quickly tidied up and hurried out. When he was halfway there, he saw Second Uncle being brought out from the other side.

The two exchanged glances, said nothing more, and then silently followed Jiang Pojun’s steps.

Soon, they were brought to the massive Four-Color Array—the Seven Stars Demon-Binding Array.

Especially when passing by the gigantic bronze cauldrons on the city walls, a strong scent of blood assaulted Zhou Qing, making him frown.

These bronze cauldrons were key nodes of the array, each at least twenty meters tall, with ancient symbols continuously wandering across the surface.

In front of the array, Third-level Array Masters Su Lishan and Wu Tiangang were conversing quietly with Lin Daochen.

Seeing Zhou Qing and Siyun Ya arrive, Lin Daochen quickly introduced them.

Both of them nodded slightly.

In this repair of the Four-Color Array, even they were cautious, fearing mistakes, let alone these two young people.

Even their carefully instructed direct disciples were standing aside, merely observing.

Su Lishan said, "They might not be able to help much in the initial phase, but it’s a rare learning opportunity. Let them observe from the side."

"Thank you, Master!" Zhou Qing and Second Uncle saluted.

Seeing everyone prepared, Xuanyuan Shuo, with a solemn expression, led them into the array.

Upon entering the array, Zhou Qing felt powerful vortices of spiritual power enveloping them.

It was evident that the Four-Color Array consumed massive amounts of spirit stones every moment.

Looking around, the array’s interior was riddled with holes, many symbols were dim, like candles about to extinguish.

The condition inside compared to the seemingly imposing exterior was a world of difference.

The four-colored spiritual power lines on the inner wall were chaotic, intertwining and colliding, producing crackling sounds, on the verge of collapsing.

Lin Daochen’s heart sank at the sight.

"How did it become so dilapidated?" Lin Daochen couldn’t hide his pain.

Su Lishan and Wu Tiangang sighed deeply, saying, "This is already much better. When we first came five years ago, it was even worse. The array was nearly completely out of control, with spiritual power chaos several times worse than now."

Xuanyuan Shuo nodded solemnly, "Indeed, it’s thanks to the tireless efforts of the two masters, who haven’t rested for five years, that the Seven Stars Demon-Binding Array has persisted until now."

Lin Daochen suddenly felt immense pressure.

After all, he was just a second-level array master before, barely having contact with tri-color arrays, let alone the four-color one before him.

Su Lishan walked over, handed Lin Daochen a jade slip, and said, "This contains all the core central diagrams of the array and various operational routes. Study it quickly."

Wu Tiangang rubbed his crimson nose and said, "Fortunately, we’re just repairing sections. Otherwise, we’d be helpless."

Lin Daochen quickly placed it on his forehead to investigate.

Zhou Qing and Siyun Ya curiously observed around. At this moment, a middle-aged man came over and heavily patted their shoulders.

Then he said arrogantly, "Don’t run around when the time comes. You can’t bear the consequences if you accidentally touch something."

Zhou Qing was baffled.

This person was introduced by the Seventh Prince at the banquet, apparently one of Wu Tiangang’s six disciples, named Fang Jun.

Nascent Soul mid-stage cultivation, having condensed twenty-six spirit seals, truly a one-color array master.

Zhou Qing patted the spot Fang Jun had touched, slightly frowning, feeling a hint of displeasure.

This made Fang Jun frown too.

They had been here for five years, and he was older than both of them. As newcomers, they actually ignored his reminder.

Second Uncle slightly shook his head and said nothing more.

In his long life experience, he had seen many such scenes. The rivalry among young people was just child’s play to him.
