According to the rules of the cultivation world, a spirit vein with an array formation had an owner.
Therefore, after occupying a spirit vein, one had to immediately set up an array formation.
Without a huge grudge, itinerant cultivators would not attack a spirit mountain with an owner.
If there was no array formation, it meant that the spirit vein had no owner and anyone could occupy it.
Although Wang Daoyuan had killed many itinerant cultivators previously, no one dared to court death easily.
However, Blue Cloud Peak's inferior-grade grade-3 spirit vein was too tempting.
Even though they already knew that this place belonged to the Wang Clan and that Wang Daoyuan, the God of Death, was in charge, there were still many foundational cultivators who were eyeing this place. Wang Daoyuan didn't even dare to enter a meditative state.
It was urgent to set up a defensive array formation.
Blue Cloud Peak's spirit vein had both water and wood attributes, so it was best to set up an array formation with both attributes.
He did not know what array formation the Liang family had set up previously. When they retreated, they took everything that could be taken away.
There were no materials left for setting up the array formation, and all the spirit plants in the spirit fields were transplanted. Only the spirit trees that had grown for hundreds of years on the mountain did not dare to touch them.
After all, most of those spirit trees were planted by the Wang family back then.
If the Liang family dared to touch those spirit trees, the Wang family would definitely continue to suppress them and Liang Liang would have died in vain.
The Liang family was still clear about what could and could not be touched.
It did not matter if he did not know about the previous array formation. The Five Elements Perfected Being was proficient in array formations, and there were many powerful array formations in his inheritance.
Wang Daoyuan found a water-wood dual-attribute array formation called the Green Wood Illusory Cloud Array.
This array formation was to create an environment and wait for an opportunity to sneak in.
Together with offensive plants like the Vampiric Vine, it was extremely powerful.
This Green Wood Illusory Cloud Array was also an inferior-grade grade-3 array formation and was just right for Blue Cloud Peak's spirit vein.
Wang Daoyuan had to set up the array formation as soon as possible and then refine the flying boat.
Time was tight, so he did not carefully set up the array core.
He first set up the framework of the array formation and then used some Dharma treasures to suppress some of the array core's functions.
As long as the array formation could be used, itinerant cultivators would not dare to spy on Blue Cloud Peak.
The Green Wood Illusory Cloud Formation was not a purely offensive formation. It also had a defensive barrier. It could be used together with defensive Dharma artifacts to increase the strength of the defensive barrier and defend against enemies outside the mountain gate.
He also had a Mystic Tortoise Shield in his clan, which was given to him by Adept Thunderflame when he established his Violet Palace.
This thing was made from the shell of the Dark Water Black Turtle, a Third Rank Lower Grade Spirit Beast, and it had not been forged.
He only used the smelting method to fuse some material essence into it to increase its strength.
It wasn't hard for him to take the attacks of an early Zifu Disciple head-on, and he would be able to hold on for a period of time against an ordinary middle Zifu Disciple.
Attacking Dharma artifacts were more awkward because the Blue Cloud Peak had a water and wood attribute spirit vein. These two attributes were not good at attacking.
Even if he used flying swords with two different attributes, the offensive power of the array was only so-so.
The wood element was very suitable for playing with poison, but the Clear Sky Peak was a place that the Wang Clan wanted to focus on. In the future, there would be many cultivators stationed there, so it was definitely not suitable to release poison here.
Moreover, the Wang Clan wasn't able to find a poison that could deal with Zifu Disciples.
The Vampiric Vine alone was not enough to deal with the enemy in the air.
Thus, he still needed a few flying swords.
He first set up the framework of the array. In order to cover the entire Clear Sky Peak, the distance between each array core was very far.
The difficulty of connecting the array cores was not much lower than when he set up the Five Elements Dragon Lock Formation.
He used half a year to connect all the array cores to the spirit vein and the core array core.
Afterwards, he placed the Mystic Tortoise Shield and the six flying swords that he took from the Jadespring Peak at each array core.
After he was done, Wang Daoyuan sat cross-legged beside the core array core and poured spiritual power into it.
A layer of alternating blue and blue defensive light instantly enveloped the entire Clear Sky Peak.
With the help of the array, he used a Third Rank Lower Grade Wood Flying Sword to attack a three meter tall rock halfway up the mountain.
Although the attack power of the wood element wasn't strong, it was still a Third Rank Lower Grade Wood Flying Sword. Its power was still considerable, and the rock was directly cut in half.
Seeing this, the cultivators that were spying on the Clear Sky Peak all dispersed.
With the protection of the array core, the Clear Sky Peak's safety was guaranteed. Wang Daoyuan asked Zhao Liang to bring the disciples of the family who knew how to refine weapons over.
He planned to refine the flying boat here. There was a kind of Third Rank Lower Grade Wood on the Clear Sky Peak called the Clear Sky Parasol Tree.
The Clear Sky Parasol Tree was entirely green, and green clouds would condense on the tree crown.
There were many Clear Sky Parasol Trees on the mountain, and the entire mountain peak was enveloped by the clouds produced by the Clear Sky Parasol Tree. That was how the name Clear Sky Peak came about.
There were more than ten Third Rank Clear Sky Parasol Trees on the entire mountain peak, and there were at least a thousand Second Rank Clear Sky Parasol Trees all over the mountain.
The Clear Sky Parasol Tree's strength could only be considered above average among the same grade of spirit wood, and it was far inferior to the Jadebone Pine.
However, it was not a big problem to use it to refine a magic longsword.
The Clear Sky Parasol Tree had two great advantages. First, its trunk was straight and tall, and it was quite common to see more than 500 meters tall. Second, its wood was especially suitable for spiritual power to pass through.
With these two advantages, it was very suitable to refine the flying boat's keel.
In fact, it was also quite good to refine the flying boat's core.
However, considering the difficulty of repair, it was more suitable to refine the flying boat's core with metal materials.
The material to refine the flying boat's core was naturally still Star Steel. There was a whole mine in Fallen Dragon Ridge, and there was as much as he wanted.
Wang Daoyuan was already a Third Rank Weapon Refiner and Array Master at this time, so the flying boat he refined did not need to be like before.
He replaced the floating array pattern and the propulsion array pattern on the flying boat's core with Third Rank array patterns.
In this way, the flying boat's carrying capacity and speed would be much faster.
Of course, the Netherworld Sect had restrictions on the size and speed of the flying boat, so he could not break through.
The flying boat could not be more than 100 meters long, and its speed could not exceed 2,000 miles in two hours.
Wang Daoyuan decided to make a flying boat with a flat line. The length could not exceed 100 meters, so he would make it 100 meters.
The length could not be increased, so in order to increase the transport capacity, he increased the width.
In the end, it took half a year to refine a flying boat that was 100 meters long and more than 60 meters wide.
This thing did not look like a flying boat anymore, but its functions were still there.
In order to reduce the speed to 2,000 miles in two hours, he also reduced the number of Spirit Stone troughs that provided Spirit Stones with Spirit Qi.
The Twelfth Uncle was also very satisfied with this flying boat. It did not matter how it looked, as long as it was useful.
Wang Daoyuan and Zhao Liang continued to refine the flying boat like this.
After familiarizing themselves with the process, their speed also improved. In just ten months, they had refined another two flying boats.
In the past two years, Wang Shouzhe had also led a group of juniors to set up array formations in the various spirit veins in the new territory.
The migration of the family's population was basically completed, and the various industries were also on track. The Wang family's mining and Spirit Wood industries had more than doubled their annual income.
In addition to the new shops in the Bai Ling Market and the flying boat's transportation income, the Wang family's annual net income was now more than 100,000 Spirit Stones.
With so many Spirit Stones, they could only support more than 100 cultivators, so they could have a surplus of 50,000 to 60,000 Spirit Stones every year.
Since the important matters had been completed, Wang Daoyuan could also modify the Clear Sky Peak's array formation while he was in seclusion.
The strongest point of the Green Wood Illusory Cloud Formation was that it could create illusions that could even confuse early-stage Zifu Realm cultivators.
It would be a pity to give up such a powerful ability.
The current array formation only had a simple framework, and its functions were all dependent on Dharma artifacts.
It still had to be modified. At the very least, it had to be restored to its ability to create illusions.
Wang Daoyuan did not neglect to set up the array formation and cultivate at the same time, so he spent a little more time.
It took him more than a year to set up the complete version of the array formation.
Of course, the Green Wood Illusory Cloud Formation was not good at attacking.
If it only relied on the array formation's own functions, it could only rely on the spell caster to cast Dharma spells to attack.
In this way, the array formation's lethality was not enough.
Thus, he could not completely give up on the Dharma artifacts. The offensive and defensive capabilities of the array formation had to be supported by the Dharma artifacts.
