Chapter 194: Chapter 180: Ten Thousand Miles River Array

Translator: 549690339

On the golden barrier shrouding the island, there was a tiny circular gap.

He Zhenghao, escorting Li Fan, entered the interior of the Island Protection Array through this small slot.

“When you meet the array masters, do not mention the issue about contribution points in front them. Act accordingly and after everything is done, transfer your contribution points to me. I will ensure they go to Zhang Zhiliang,” He Zhenghao quietly instructed him.

Li Fan nodded slightly, indicating his understanding. “Ha ha! Daoist He has come at just the right time!”

At that moment, Gong Boyu’s laughter resounded from afar.

Following the direction of the voice, Li Fan saw that several masters of the Array Strategy Hall were already present.

In front of them was a giant screen that was vertically displayed.

On the screen, many small array units flashed past rapidly.

From time to time, the array masters would point at the screen and discuss something among themselves, with varying expressions on each of their faces.

“This is…” Li Fan’s gaze flickered as he looked towards the golden array in the sky.

Just as he expected, he vaguely saw numerous tiny discs, clinging like insects, to the surface of the array’s boundary.

While absorbing the power of the array, they transmit the most minute unit data that comprises the Great Array to the central screen.

“Array Breaking Disks.”

During his twelfth life, Zhang Zhiliang had mentioned this magic treasure in his writings.

This treasure can analyze the structure of an array without damaging it, providing a reference for breaking the array.

A set of one thousand and one hundred eighty Array Breaking Disks were quite valuable.

Previously, he had no opportunity to see one; he didn’t expect to encounter them today.

“Come, come Daoist He, come and see the latest analysis data. Isn’t it that this island that emerged again from the seabed is related to the changes in leylines? ‘ Gong Boyu enthusiastically called out.

Although He Zhenghao was excited, he didn’t forget about the task at hand and said to Zhang Zhiliang: “Daoist Zhang, this is the Li Fan I mentioned before who would like to follow under your command and serve as an array repair staff member. He is at the Foundation Establishment Stage and has some understanding of array techniques.”

Zhang Zhiliang just looked at Li Fan casually and threw him a Knowledge Spirit Orb: ‘You test this first. As long as you have a basic understanding of array techniques, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

Li Fan received the Knowledge Spirit Orb, and his consciousness entered and exited the orb quickly, rapidly finishing the test.

Zhang Zhiliang looked at the number of light points that lit up on the Knowledge Spirit Orb, somewhat astonished.

“I heard that you have been self-studying array techniques? Your performance is very good; more than enough to serve as an array repair staff member!”

Zhang Zhiliang very well knew the difficulty of the questions within his Knowledge Spirit Orb. Some can be deemed as tricky. Even the average disciples within the Array Strategy Hall would not be able to perform as well as the person in front of him, not to mention those who self-study array

techniques.

“Master, you flatter me! I am of low talent and can only depend on diligence!” Li Fan responded calmly.

Zhang Zhiliang nodded and handed Li Fan a Jade Badge.

The Jade Badge was engraved with the pattern of a metal cube standing diagonally, which was the main structure of the Array Strategy Hall.

Zhang Zhiliang instructed, “With this Jade Badge, go to the Governance Hall to register in person. Then, go to the Ten Thousand Profound Mirror to collect related items. After enabling the permissions, you can find the answers to any questions in the TianXuan Mirror.”

Li Fan nodded his understanding, thanked them, and put away the Jade Badge.

Seeing things done so smoothly, He Zhenghao also wore a pleased smile.

With the business taken care of, he concentrated his attention on the screen of the Array Breaking Disks.

His expression quickly changed, filled with an intense concentration as though he had become a different person.

Li Fan watched and could not help but marvel at the transformation.

On the screen, the speed of the flashing images increased.

It seemed that He Zhenghao was starting to struggle a bit, beads of sweat started to drip down his forehead.

Above his head, a scroll slowly unfurled.

Within the scroll, one could vaguely see endless mountains and a dense layout of water systems depicted.

The mountains and waters intermingled, stretching tens of thousands of miles without end.

It was majestic and spectacular.

“This must be Daoist He’s Foundation Establishment Strange Object, the Mountain and River Hundred Veins Formation Map. Judging from its power, it seems to be more than just a simple Miraculous Human Item,” Li Fan observed carefully and thought to himself.

About half a tea’s time later, He Zhenghao finally let out a sigh of relief and put away the strange formation map.

“Daoist Gong has quite the eye for detail! He is absolutely right!” He first exclaimed in praise.

He then slowly said, “Indeed, this island is located right on top of a leyline. It seems that a major change must have occurred at some other point on this leyline to cause this island, which had been submerged underwater for three thousand years, to resurface.”

“But that place seems to be a great distance from the Cloud Sea. With my cultivation in the Foundation Establishment Stage, I am unable to sense the exact location,” He Zhenghao said regretfully.

He Zhenghao’s words immediately sparked a heated discussion amongst the group of array masters.

“So, it was really the change in the leylines that caused it? How significant the changes have to be?”

“If Daoist He cannot sense it, the incident must have occurred quite far away. However, to affect this place from such a distance, it must be some kind of major event, at least something like ‘flattening a hundred mountains’.” “We will know where it happened when we go back and inquire about it.”

“Not necessarily. The change in leyline might have happened deep underground. The surface might only tremble slightly.”

While the others were engaged in a heated discussion, Zhang Zhiliang, who had not participated, suddenly asked: “Daoist He, what do you think of this golden Island Protection Array?”

He Zhenghao squinted his eyes and after a moment of contemplation, he answered: “This golden array is connected to the leyline. If my guess is correct, it should be based on the Array of Mountains and Rivers.”

“As long as the leyline is not destroyed, this protective array will continue to exist. This Ten Thousand Immortals Formation can even condense the leyline of a state, its defensive power is so strong that even three to four Unity-Path cultivators cannot break it.

“It is at least a level stronger than the current execution defense plan.”

Zhang Zhiliang slowly said, “Although this array technique offers strong defense, if the array is broken, it will cause some damage to the leyline. I do not know what they encountered back then that caused them to choose the Array of Mountains and Rivers, such an extreme solution.”

This time, Gong Boyu also joined in: “Why bother with so much? This free Array of Mountains and Rivers is right in front of us. We can observe it without spending any contribution points. Such a good thing is rare in a hundred years.”

He Zhenghao agreed, “Daoist Gong is correct. We should take advantage of this opportunity and concentrate on studying it.”

With that, everyone’s attention was drawn to the rapidly flashing images on the Array Breaking Disks’ screen.

Li Fan also observed for a while. It was just a pity that with his current foundation in array techniques, he was still unable to comprehend anything from it.

Seeing that the array masters would not be waking up anytime soon, Li Fan decided not to stay any longer.

After excusing himself, he quietly returned to the Ten Thousand Immortals Island.

He headed straight to the Governance Hall in the center of the island..
