Market.

Liang Sheng had to put aside the black market situation for now, as rhe existence of rhe illusion array technique gave him cause for concern.

How could he risk his life without any assurance? He wasn’t lacking in time, so why rush?

Although he wouldn’t rake the risk himself, he planned on dispersing the news about the black market after all, he had no reason not to let other cultivators test rhe waters for him?

Of course, he couldn’t let too many people know about the black marker, to avoid alarming the enemies. He must weigh this matter carefully.

In the following days, Liang Sheng reverted back to his previous routine: cultivating, drawing talismans, and practicing incantation techniques, spending each day to its fullest.

He made a particular effort to learn about the array masters. After his initial arrival at the marker, he had a lot to consider, and this was a chance to gain some new understanding.

Compared to creating talismans, refining tools and pills, mastering array formations was more difficult at the beginning, but once understood, it became easier.

For an array to be successful, one must understand its method.

That’s why among the supplementary cultivation techniques, mastering formation is the most challenging and time-consuming one.

Just as Liang Sheng was considering different methods to best master the array formations, he received startling news: Chen Mo had disappeared.

The Market Administration Office sent people to investigate, but with no conclusion reached. If there’s no sign of Chen Mo paying his rent by next year, his cave mansion would likely be repossessed.

These circumstances left Liang Sheng feeling complicated. After all, it was Chen Mo who had shown him kindness when he had first arrived at the market, saving him a lot of detours.

But he had repaid that kindness with talismans. Without them, Chen Mo would likely have lost his life over the Lingxi grass affair.

Should he, then, go look for him…

As soon as the thought entered his mind, he immediately shook it away, nervously cutting off that line of thinking. The situation was incredibly dangerous; indeed, he was better off avoiding cause and effect returns.

One step in the wrong direction and he could find himself embroiled in endless trouble. How could he entertain such thoughts?

If Chen Mo’s death is confirmed, rhe most he would do is light a remembrance stick for him. For other situations, he would leave it to fate.

Afterwards, Liang Sheng spent some time studying the arrangements of the array, finally stepping into the Sky Solar Sect’s store and spending a hundred low-grade spirit stones to buy a copy of “Array Technique True Understanding”.

The sect disciple of Hua Tian Sect who watched him purchase it found him peculiar. It was as if they were looking at a fool.

Not to mention the circumstances within the sect, but within the market, loose cultivators wouldn’t consider auxiliary cultivation of array techniques until they reached the Qi Cultivation Seventh Level.

The reasons were simple: firstly, mastering arrays was very challenging and secondly, studying arrays took a lot of time which made it the least cost-effective for scattered cultivators.

At least with other methods, such as alchemy, cultivators could produce aiding cultivation elixirs. Drawing talismans could provide additional protection and refining tools could add to their battle strength.

Only arrays required so much initial investment that low-ranked cultivators couldn’t afford, so the majority of cultivators wouldn’t consider it. To the disciple’s eye, Liang Sheng simply didn’t understand any of this.

Even though “Array Technique True Understanding’1 sounded impressive, it was actually beginner level. However, it did contain the Illusion Array Technique.

As for intermediate and advanced arrays, cultivators shouldn’t even entertain the idea before reaching the Golden Core Stage, as such arrays required a spiritual power that cultivators at the Qi Training and Foundation Establishment Stages couldn’t produce. Studying beginner arrays was more than enough to study till death for most cultivators.

Three months later.

Liang Sheng had a basic understanding of Array.

Should his achievement become known, it would definitely astound others. Even Liang Sheng himself was somewhat surprised for the first time in his cultivation journey.

With the Talent of Innocent Foolishness, it took him less time to reach a beginner level compared to normal people, leaving him with mixed feelings.

However, mastering arrays didn’t mean that Liang Sheng could set up arrays, but he had acquired the basic ability of array formations, which is comprehending array rhythms.

Array rhythm is the basic line of all array formations. Without rhythm, an array is just a false facade, away from the principles of arrays. And with this, Liang Sheng began practicing his first array.

Gathering Spirit Array.

He prepared 36 low-grade spirit stones to make array flags. Liang Sheng was initially excited. After all, the Gathering Spirit Array could increase his absorption of spiritual power.

However, a month later, Liang Sheng was left utterly frustrated. As of now, he had still failed to set up the Gathering Spirit Array correctly.

Even though he gained basic understanding of array formation faster than most, the Gathering Spirit Array gave him a crude awakening – his cultivation speed was still pitiful.

Liang Sheng naturally found this frustrating. After a few months of closed-door cultivation, he eventually decided to take a break and clear his head.

Seeing Chen Mo’s cave mansion still empty, he could only sigh. In a few more months, without anyone to pay rhe rent, the branches of the Three Sects and Six Orders would likely repossess this spot.

If that happened, it was almost certain that Chen Mo’s fate would nor be a good one. The most he could do was to hope for his well-being but there was nothing else he could do.

Without realizing it, Liang Sheng found himself back at the Three Sects and Six Orders’ shops. Each rime he was idle, he would drop by. What if they had a Foundation Establishment Pill on sale?

Though it was wishful thinking, Liang Sheng was afraid of missing an opportunity due to negligence. As he was passing Hua Tian Sect’s store, he suddenly paused.

Because he saw someone somewhat familiar. After thinking for a while, he finally remembered who it was.. It was the youngster who was sent by the Emperor Danzong from the Great Zhou Royal Family to join as a disciple fifteen years ago!
