The Twelve Golden Lotus Arts could be used in conjunction with the Snow Lotus Sword Art. Therefore, the comprehension of the last form of the Snow Lotus Sword Art was very important.
Meanwhile, his main body began refining the Fire Serpent Array.
After so many days, he hadn't stopped studying the array refinement technique.
After all, he had to fulfill the requirements of a Yuan Venerate in order to head to the Vast Cold Hall to cultivate.
His master was very mysterious and gentle at times, but he never compromised on matters of principle. He was very stubborn and strict.
It would be impossible to head to the Vast Cold Hall in advance if he couldn't complete the task assigned to him.
"Success!"
After a quarter of an hour, Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile excitedly as he looked at the light red array refinement stone in his hand.
The array refinement stone was originally transparent, colorless, and odorless. It would only change when it was smelted into an array or formation.
The Fire Serpent Array Refinement Stone was red and there were inscriptions of the Fire Serpent Array and a small fire serpent on it.
"It's time to report back to Master."
Ling Xiao glanced at the two clones in the cave abode and recalled them helplessly.
Although the Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique could allow clones to cultivate, the problem was that they couldn't be more than 10 meters away from him.
This was also why he was anxious to find a higher level cultivation secret technique that could replace the Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique.
If he could be further away, his clones would be able to continue cultivating even when he was doing other things. That way, he wouldn't have to waste time.
However, he definitely couldn't do that now.
However, this kind of thing couldn't be rushed or forced. Just like the Twelve Golden Lotus Arts, he had obtained it through an unexpected life-or-death challenge.
He believed that as his cultivation base continued to improve and his strength continued to increase, there would definitely be more opportunities.
Right now, the most important thing was to raise his cultivation base to the Transcendent Grade as soon as possible. Then, he would be able to enter the inner sect's Moon Flower Building again and find a martial technique that could replace the Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique.
When he hurried over to Yang Danlin's cave abode, Yang Danlin was researching a new elixir pill while the Yuan Venerate was sleeping.
"Oh, you're here, disciple. Master thought you had forgotten about our agreement."
The Yuan Venerate opened his eyes when he saw Ling Xiao. However, it was only a slit. Perhaps opening his eyes too wide would waste too much energy.
"How would I dare to forget Master's instructions? Furthermore, I've always wanted to go to the Guang Han Palace to cultivate."
"Alright, take out your Fire Snake Refining Formation Stone and let me take a look."
Ling Xiao obediently took out two Fire Snake Array Refining Stones. One was refined by a Yuan Venerate, while the other was refined by him.
The Yuan Venerate could not be bothered to ask any more questions. He already knew that his disciple had outstanding perception, memory, and comprehension, so there was no point in asking about theories.
The most important thing was the quality of the refined Fire Snake Array Refining Stone.
When he carefully looked at Ling Xiao's Refining Formation Stone, he couldn't help but frown.
"Have you really never been to the Celestial Court Continent? Or have you never learned how to refine arrays? "
"No!"
Ling Xiao answered honestly.
"I've really lost to you, old friend. This time, we've really picked up a peerless treasure. This is the first time this brat has refined a Fire Snake Refining Formation Stone, and he actually refined it with a better effect than me, his master. I really want to find a piece of tofu and kill myself."
The Yuan Venerate turned around and told Yang Danlin.
"Yuan Venerate, old friend, don't complain. It was the same when I taught him alchemy. Do you know why I chose to let Little Lan teach him? It was because I didn't want to be discouraged. This kid is simply a monster among monsters."
Yang Danlin also smiled bitterly.
When it came to alchemy, Yang Danlin was very famous among the 12 sects.
When it came to refining arrays, if a Yuan Venerate in the Sky Dragon Continent said that he was second, no one would dare to say that they were first.
However, in front of a little monster like Ling Xiao, they suddenly felt like fools. They simply couldn't understand.
"Forget it. Since you can already refine a Fire Snake Refining Formation Stone on your own, it means that your foundation is already very solid. However, refining arrays is the same as alchemy. Even if you get started relatively quickly, the deeper you learn, the more mysterious and profound you will discover."
The Yuan Venerate's expression became serious again. "Right now, you are just following the path of others. It can be said that you are standing on the shoulders of giants. When you are able to refine your own pills and arrays, you will be considered a true master."
"Your disciple will follow Master's teachings."
Ling Xiao cupped his hands in respect.
"Good, you are neither arrogant nor impatient. This is commendable. Next, old friend, you will arrange some sect missions for this kid. Try your best to let him come into contact with the various array formations and arrays of the Yuehua School."
After saying that, the Yuan Venerate turned to Ling Xiao and said, "Learning about arrays and arrays is just the beginning. Master wants you to refine all these arrays and arrays into Array Refining Stones. When you do this, you can graduate. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask Master at any time."
"All of them!"
Ling Xiao had been at the Yuehua School for more than a month, so he knew about the situation in the Yuehua School. Almost all the cave residences and pavilions were protected by array formations, while the disciple tokens, elder tokens, and other small objects had array formations on them.
Who knew how long it would take to refine all of them into Array Refining Stones?
"That's right, all of them. However, you don't have to worry. You just have to finish them before you graduate from the Yuehua School. Next, Master will get your Senior Brother Yang to contact Wanghan Tianzun of the Moon Hall. As long as you are willing, you can head over to the Moon Hall to cultivate."
"Thank you, Master!"
Ling Xiao thanked him hurriedly.
Yang Danlin called Lan Yuer over and asked her to bring Ling Xiao into contact with the array formations and arrays of the Yuehua School.
There wasn't much difference between array formations and arrays.
The difference was that array formations were relatively larger and were set up independently. On the other hand, arrays were generally smaller and were set up on small objects. They couldn't be set up independently.
The principles behind both were the same. It was just that one developed in a larger direction, while the other developed in a smaller direction.
Regardless of whether it was an array formation or an array formation, their power would weaken as time passed. Problems might even arise due to certain reasons.
For example, the defensive array formation on the outer sect's challenge platform might break through the limits of the array formation's defense and cause problems if a relatively strong disciple challenged it.
When that happened, someone would have to maintain and repair it.
Generally speaking, the matter of maintaining array formations and arrays was handled by the Array Formation Hall.
However, Lan Yuer had a very good relationship with the Hall Master of the Array Formation Hall. They were truly good sisters. Therefore, there wouldn't be any problems if she brought Ling Xiao along.
