Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 298 - 171: Tier 2 Array Master

Chapter 298: Chapter 171: Tier 2 Array Master
Ji Yuan didn’t have time to watch him show off.
He just wanted to ask how to become a Tier Two Array Master.
But with Yun Qianzai’s personality, if he didn’t see Ji Yuan mess up, he probably wouldn’t let him go, unless Ji Yuan could really break this array.
But Ji Yuan didn’t want to mess up, so what to do?
So, he smiled and took out a piece of white paper from his storage bag, laughing loudly: "Recently, I’ve come upon a line of poetry, which I feel is very apt for Second Senior Brother, so I brought it as a gift."
Before Ji Yuan could finish speaking, Yun Qianzai had appeared in front of him, snatching the piece of white paper from his hand.
He lightly shook the white paper in his hand and was already trembling a bit with excitement before he even began to read it.
"I, Yun Qianzai, in all my life, why would I need to explain myself to others?!"
"Marvelous, marvelous, this is practically a reflection of my entire life! This phrase was born for me!"
After he finished, he turned abruptly to look at Ji Yuan, the fervor in his eyes unmistakable, "Junior Brother, you are so considerate!"
Ji Yuan smiled and intimately explained, "As soon as the idea came to me, I immediately brought it to Second Senior Brother, and I haven’t spoken of it to anyone else."
"Really?!"
Yun Qianzai’s eyes lit up.
"Truly." Ji Yuan smiled and nodded.
"Junior Brother, quickly, please come in."
Yun Qianzai immediately tossed the thought of breaking the array aside, and hurriedly pulled Ji Yuan along to enter Tianxu Island.
Upon entering Tianxu Island, Ji Yuan gained a clearer understanding of Yun Qianzai’s holy style... This small Tianxu Island had four or five Tier Two Arrays laid down.
Just maintaining the operation of these arrays probably consumes a substantial amount of spirit stones.
Besides, anywhere you look, you either see rare spirit plants or beautiful scenery sculpted from precious minerals.
The richness of the Spiritual Qi was beyond words.
It was even richer than the Spiritual Qi on Ji Yuan’s Mist Island.
Damn, Array Cultivators really are filthy rich, no wonder Hu Li, a Demon Cultivator at the early Foundation Establishment stage, could afford to buy a Talisman Treasure... Ji Yuan grumbled in his heart.
Yun Qianzai had already brought him a cup of tea.
"Ahem, Junior Brother, about that phrase..."
As Yun Qianzai said this, he only felt his face flush a little.
But fortunately, Ji Yuan immediately added, "That phrase was thought up by Senior Brother."
"This..."
Yun Qianzai seemed somewhat embarrassed.
"Heaven knows, Earth knows, you know, and I know," Ji Yuan said considerately.
"Junior Brother, whatever you need in the future, feel free to come to Second Senior Brother!"
Yun Qianzai waved a big hand.
Ji Yuan felt perhaps it was still a bit lacking and took out another piece of white paper, "Actually, I came up with two phrases at the time; here’s another one, which I think is also well-suited for Second Senior Brother."
Yun Qianzai glanced at it and was instantly dumbfounded.
Soon, even his breath became slightly rapid.
Because on that white paper, it read: "At the end of the celestial path, who is the peak, upon seeing Tianxu, the Dao becomes void."
"This..."
Yun Qianzai didn’t know what to say, in his mind, all he could think of was a scene, where under the spotlight, on the platform where the Nascent Souls sat.
He appeared out of nowhere on the high platform, with his back to the crowd of Nascent Souls.
Lightly reciting this sentence.
Then the crowd of Nascent Souls bowed down, calling out "Greetings, Honorable Tianxu Master."
"Of course, if Senior Brother feels it’s not quite suitable, then never mind," Ji Yuan pretended to put the paper away.
"Hold on!"
Yun Qianzai reached out to stop him, and then seriously said, "From now on, Junior Brother’s business is Yun’s business!"
Ji Yuan, satisfied, handed over the white paper.
"Actually, Junior Brother came up with another phrase... but the understanding of the array way seems a bit unclear."
Yun Qianzai, though fond of showing off, was not foolish. Listening to Ji Yuan, he immediately understood.
"Rest assured, Junior Brother, isn’t it just arrays, simple!"
Yun Qianzai shook his sleeves, "Come with Senior Brother, I assure you will leave satisfied!"
Ji Yuan drained his cup of tea, then noticing the cup was made from mid-grade spirit stones, casually put it into his storage bag and followed along.
After leaving the hall, Ji Yuan followed Yun Qianzai up the mountain, looking up at the peak, he asked, "Senior Brother, what is the purpose of the mountain top?"
"That, ah, that’s the Star-Plucking Platform, used for observing celestial phenomena and understanding arrays."
Yun Qianzai spoke mystically, and Ji Yuan couldn’t really tell if it was true or not.
He was just curious whether Yun Qianzai’s Star-Plucking Platform was as useful as his Array Room or perhaps even better than the Enlightenment Room?
Since the focus was on array exchange, Yun Qianzai didn’t take Ji Yuan to the Star-Plucking Platform.
Instead, he brought him to a cave mansion in the middle of the mountain. Here, Yun Qianzai sat on a mat, his white clothes as pristine as snow, and the cave mansion surrounded by Spiritual Qi, with various exotic flowers and grass growing everywhere.
In this place, Ji Yuan felt as though he was in a celestial paradise.
"Junior Brother came to discuss the matter of moving from Tier One to Tier Two, correct?"
Ji Yuan sat across from Yun Qianzai, this Second Senior Brother seemed like a different person, no longer overbearing, but rather very serious.
"Exactly, I humbly seek Senior Brother’s guidance."
Ji Yuan maintained a proper posture.
"Actually, to become a Tier Two Array Master is not difficult, especially with Junior Brother’s talent. You just need to understand several array nodes and the methods of formation and breaking arrays. This way, ordinary Tier Two Arrays naturally won’t trap you. Of course, if it’s an array I set up, it can still trap Junior Brother."
Ji Yuan: "... What Senior Brother said is very true."
So, Ji Yuan stayed on this Tianxu Island of Yun Qianzai.
Yun Qianzai taught him earnestly.
Curiously, Yun Qianzai initially thought Ji Yuan struggled a bit when they pondered arrays together, but whenever Ji Yuan pondered alone back at the cave mansion, his progress accelerated rapidly.
In just a short month, Ji Yuan had progressed from a Tier One Array Master to a Tier Two Array Master.
"Not bad, only slightly less insightful than me."
Yun Qianzai stood on the Star-Plucking Platform, his hands behind his back, speaking indifferently.
After spending a month together, Ji Yuan had become almost immune to this kind of mental attack from him.
"Ahem, I wonder if Junior Brother remembered that remaining phrase?"
This past month, Yun Qianzai hadn’t forgotten what Ji Yuan had said that day, not even for a moment. Additionally, whenever he had some free time, he would ponder whether he could write a few sentences himself to surpass the two given by Ji Yuan.
But no matter how he thought about it, those two sentences stood like mountains in his heart.
Preventing him from ever crossing them.
So today, as soon as Ji Yuan comprehended the wonders of Tier Two Arrays, Yun Qianzai was eager to ask about it.
Ji Yuan didn’t disappoint him, retrieving the piece of white paper he had long prepared in advance.
Just one glance, and Yun Qianzai felt as if a star had exploded in his mind.
"Boom——"
What sort of phrase was that?
"At the peak of immortality, dominating the world, Tianxu came before heaven!"
