"Of course, if the flying swords that make up the sword formation are identical in terms of size, weight and sharpness, it'll be easier to control and set it up."
Pausing for a moment, Xuan Yi chuckled. "However, that's not very realistic. Unless all the flying swords were created by the same Weapon Refinement Master and it's a set of flying swords specially created by that Weapon Refinement Master."
"A set of flying swords?" Su Zimo's eyes flickered as he pondered.
"You're a disciple of Weapon Peak. Even though you haven't become a Weapon Refinement Master, you should know how complicated the art of weapon refinement is. It's already difficult to refine a single graded spirit weapon, let alone a set."
When he heard that, Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
He did not dare to say anything else, but it wouldn't be too difficult for him to refine a set of inferior-grade flying swords that were almost identical.
"Of course, I know that this isn't an easy path and this train of thought might not be able to help you defeat Feng Haoyu after the Spirit Peak face-off. After all, there's less than three months to the end of the year.
It's too short a time, "Xuan Yi said with anticipation," However, you're the most talented Array Formation Master I've ever seen. Perhaps you can work hard in this direction and become a true Sword Formation Master in the future. "
"Peak master, are you a Sword Formation Master?" Su Zimo suddenly asked.
"I'm the only Sword Formation Master in the sect," Xuan Yi nodded with a smile.
It was only then that Su Zimo understood that Xuan Yi was waiting for him to say those words because he wanted to find a successor for the sect to become a Sword Formation Master.
Retrieving a scroll from his storage bag, Xuan Yi handed it to Su Zimo. "I'm sure you've seen the Tripartite Sword Formation in the Array Chamber. This is the Hexagonal Sword Formation. Burn it after memorizing it and don't spread it out. "
Su Zimo received it with both hands and nodded.
Xuan Yi pondered for a moment before continuing, "Zimo, don't worry about a momentary success or failure. There's still a long way to go."
Su Zimo knew that Xuan Yi was worried that he would lose to Feng Haoyu at the end of the year and suffer a blow to his confidence.
In reality, it wasn't just Xuan Yi. The other four peak masters, including everyone from Misty Peak, did not think highly of Su Zimo.
If they were to compete in Artifact Forging or Alchemy, it would be hard to say who would emerge victorious.
But if the two of them were to fight, then in the eyes of everyone, the outcome was already predetermined, and Su Zimo would only be seeking his own humiliation.
Of course, in Misty Peak, there was another existence who thought highly of Su Zimo. However, this existence wasn't a single person …
"Go, time is precious. Spend more time on Alchemy and Weapon Refinement and strive to get first place in these two peaks." Xuan Yi instructed again.
Su Zimo nodded and put away the bamboo scroll of the Hexagonal Sword Formation. Summoning his flying sword, he left the Ten Formations Pagoda and disappeared into the night.
The moment Su Zimo left the Ten Formations Pagoda, the names on the Ten Formations Stele changed and moved down a row, leaving an empty spot at the top!
Zhong Wen's previous record had been pushed to the second row.
There was a line of words on the first row of the Ten Formations Stele.
"Cleared Level 10 of the Ten Formations Pagoda, seven days and eighteen hours!"
However, at the place where the name was displayed, it was completely blank!
Right then, Xuan Yi descended from the Ten Formations Pagoda and caught sight of that by accident. Slightly stunned, he murmured, "That lad must have forgotten to place his sect badge on the Ten Formations Stele from exhaustion."
Elder Luo was stunned for a moment before realizing. "Aiya, I forgot to tell him about that!"
After clearing the pagoda, the name of the challenger would only be recorded by making contact with the Ten Formations Stele with their sect badge.
For the past three months, Su Zimo buried himself in the vast ancient scrolls of the Array Chamber without being distracted at all. Neither did he interact with the other Array Peak disciples – he didn't even know what the Ten Formations Stele was used for, let alone this matter.
Before the challenge, Su Zimo did not think too much when he saw the gigantic stele erected here and entered without asking.
When Elder Luo saw that Su Zimo was merely a disciple of Weapon Peak, he thought that the latter was merely here to join in the fun and did not mention anything about the latter leaving his name on the Ten Formations Stele.
"Should I go chase him back?" Elder Luo soared into the air, wanting to chase after Su Zimo and inform him of the matter.
Xuan Yi waved it off and shook his head. "Forget it. That lad hasn't slept for the past eight days. Let him rest well."
"I'll look for him tomorrow then?" Elder Luo asked.
Pondering for a moment, Xuan Yi replied, "We'll talk about it after the five peaks face-off. Help him keep this a secret for now. Needless to say, this will definitely cause an uproar in the five peaks. If the other disciples find out that he was the one who cleared the Ten Formations Pagoda, there will definitely be trouble. "
"Yes, that's good too."
Elder Luo nodded. "There's less than three months to the end of the year. Don't let this affect his cultivation."
The two of them chatted casually for a while more before leaving the place.
Elder Luo could finally rest in peace as well.
Peace was restored in front of the Ten Formations Pagoda. The disciples of the five peaks who were sleeping and resting did not realize that a new line of words had appeared on the Ten Formations Stele overnight …
…
Yu Ping was an Array Peak disciple. According to his habit for the past few days, he would run to the Ten Formations Stele early in the morning to take a look before doing anything else.
This morning, Yu Ping arrived on his sword and circled around the Ten Formations Pagoda. Sweeping his gaze across the Ten Formations Stele, he retracted it.
"Yes, there's no change."
Yu Ping murmured softly.
There were a total of a hundred lines on the Ten Formations Stele and at first glance, there was indeed no change.
All of a sudden!
Yu Ping's expression changed as he spun around and glared at the first row of words on the Ten Formations Stele. His eyes widened and his pupils constricted.
It had changed!
There was a change in the Ten Formations Stele!
Senior Brother Zhong was pushed to the second row!
The names on the first row …
Hmm?
What did that mean?
It was blank?
Yu Ping was stunned.
Blinking his eyes, he looked again. Indeed, the place for the names was blank.
Landing on the ground, Yu Ping walked closer and rubbed his eyes. When he looked again, it was still blank.
There was no name for the challenger?
Yu Ping subconsciously looked back. His mouth was agape, and his eyes were filled with shock.
"Cleared Level 10 of the Ten Formations Pagoda. Took 7 days and 18 hours!"
That line of words had Yu Ping dumbfounded.
Yu Ping did not move at all and was completely stunned. His mind was in a mess as he muttered subconsciously, "Cleared Level 10, cleared Level 10 …"
"Junior Brother Yu, why are you here so early in the morning?"
Someone greeted him from behind but Yu Ping did not seem to hear it.
"What are you doing here? Did you go crazy from looking at the Ten Formations Stele?"
An Array Peak disciple who rushed over patted Yu Ping on the shoulder and teased him before looking over.
That look froze the smile on that person's face.
After an unknown period of time, a shriek tore through the air and woke up countless Array Peak disciples who were still in deep sleep.
"He cleared it! He cleared it! "
"The mysterious challenger has passed the tenth level of the formation!"
In less than an hour, the news spread through the five peaks.
It was earth-shattering!
