Time passed by quietly, and the morning passed quickly.
Xia Ruofei had been practicing the carving of the core disk array in the small villa. Although he was only using his spiritual power to simulate it, the consumption was still very high.
He sat on the jade futon. His spiritual power recovered very quickly, but it still couldn't support such consumption, so he had to drink a few mouthfuls of spirit pond water from time to time. Only when his spiritual power was too high would he stop to rest for a while and then continue practicing.
After half a day, he had become much more familiar with the carving of the core disk array.
He was very familiar with every line of the disk array, and after a lot of practice, he had a clearer understanding of some of the difficulties in the carving process.
Xia Ruofei felt that as long as he practiced for half a day, he should be able to try to start carving.
After a few hours of practice, Xia Ruofei's spirit was a little tired.
In addition, he had an appointment with Zhao Yongjun for lunch, so he simply stopped and stood up to move his hands and feet. Then he pushed the door and walked towards the main building of the club.
Xia Ruofei walked along the plank road by the lake. The scenery here was pleasant, and because of the array, the air was particularly fresh. Xia Ruofei also felt refreshed.
When he arrived at the main building, Xia Ruofei found that not only Zhao Yongjun was in the club, but Song Rui, Hou Liang, and the others were also there. Needless to say, it must be Zhao Yongjun who informed them.
The brothers hadn't gathered together for a long time, so they naturally drank when they met.
Xia Ruofei didn't deliberately control himself. As long as they asked him to drink, he didn't refuse, and he didn't use his spiritual energy to cheat.
So even though he had a good alcohol tolerance, he still felt a little tipsy towards the end.
Of course, Song Rui and the others had long been defeated. Even Zhao Yongjun, who had always been steady, had slipped under the table.
Xia Ruofei called the waiter to arrange for them to rest in their rooms, and told the waiter to take care of them. Then he left by himself.
He declined the electric car that the manager of the club had arranged for him and walked alone along the plank road by the lake towards the small villa.
Under the influence of alcohol, Xia Ruofei's footsteps were still a little light, as if he was stepping on cotton.
However, Xia Ruofei quite enjoyed this feeling. She walked back to the small villa with one foot in the depth of the water.
After swiping his fingerprint and entering the house, Xia Ruofei circulated his True Qi throughout his body. The remaining alcohol in his body melted away like snow meeting the scorching sun. His blurred eyes also regained their clarity.
Xia Ruofei took off his clothes that reeked of alcohol and threw them into the washing machine. Then, he went to the bathroom to take a hot bath and changed into a clean bathrobe.
At this moment, Xia Ruofei felt that all the fatigue in his body had disappeared. Drinking and chatting with his buddies had allowed him to fully relax his mind. Now, he was in a good state.
Therefore, he sat down and continued to practice the engraving of the Taixu Mystical Clear Formation's core disk.
Xia Ruofei returned to the villa around 2: 30 in the afternoon. He practiced for another three to four hours, and only stopped after 6: 00. At this time, the sky outside was already dark.
Xia Ruofei stood up, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
For the whole day, other than drinking with Zhao Yongjun and the others, he basically did nothing but practice the engraving of the core disk.
This kind of practice was very boring, and the process was quite tedious. However, Xia Ruofei always kept his attention focused, and the results were very obvious.
Now that he was using his mental strength to simulate the entire process of the core disk engraving, there were basically no obvious mistakes, and some difficult points could be done very smoothly.
Xia Ruofei decided to really start the engraving of the core disk tonight.
He didn't even go out to eat. Instead, he directly took out a box of instant noodles from the space, ate a simple meal, and then began to set up.
Xia Ruofei first checked the entire room again to ensure that the doors and windows were all locked, and the curtains were all drawn.
Then, he set up a simple trapping array. If an uninvited guest really barged in, they would most likely be trapped on the spot, unable to approach his room.
Finally, Xia Ruofei set up a warning array formation at the door of the room as usual. This was also the last line of defense. Once someone touched this array formation, Xia Ruofei could immediately sense it and respond immediately.
After setting up these defenses, Xia Ruofei walked into the room with the densest spirit energy.
After locking the door, he summoned the Spirit Map Scroll from his palm and entered the space with a thought.
Truly engraving the core disk array would take much more time than practicing. Furthermore, he absolutely could not be disturbed. Therefore, Xia Ruofei naturally chose to complete it in the Ring-Tu space.
The array formation of this small villa was personally set up by Xia Ruofei. He used his mental strength to check it several times and confirmed that there were no surveillance devices. It could be said that the security level here was very high, not even inferior to the courtyard house in Liuhai Lane.
In addition, there was a warning array and a trapping array at the door, so Xia Ruofei could use the Ring-Tu space in this room without worry.
After entering the Primordial realm, Xia Ruofei crossed the jade bridge beside the spirit pool and arrived at the empty space in front of the Linglong Pagoda. With a thought, a jade futon and a few processed jade plates flew over and floated in front of him.
Xia Ruofei placed the jade futon on the ground and sat down cross-legged.
Xia Ruofei had asked Li Yifu to prepare these jade plates in advance. There were a total of three of them. In the list of materials, the price of these jade plates was the most expensive.
Naturally, one jade plate was enough to engrave the core disk array. The reason why he prepared three was to prevent any mistakes and destroy the jade plates. He would not have anywhere to find them for a short period of time.
Xia Ruofei placed the three jade plates to the side, then took a large bucket of spirit pool water and placed it beside him. Once he felt that his mental strength could no longer sustain itself, he had to quickly drink some spirit pool water to speed up the recovery of his mental strength.
After all the preparations were completed, Xia Ruofei reached out and took a jade plate and placed it on his lap.
Xia Ruofei took a deep breath, and then he didn't hesitate too much before he stretched out his finger and drew it across the surface of the jade disk. A profound arc was instantly carved onto the jade disk's interior ….
Time passed by minute by minute. Xia Ruofei's engraving speed was very stable. It was neither fast nor slow. Lines of formation patterns appeared inside the disk array. Every arc seemed to be full of spirituality.
More than five hours later, when the engraving of the disk array was more than two-thirds complete, a sudden cracking sound was heard. Xia Ruofei's movements suddenly stagnated. Then, a wry smile appeared on his face. There was actually a problem with the engraving this time.
Xia Ruofei immediately stopped. The disk array could no longer be used when there was a crack. In other words, these five hours of non-stop effort were all in vain.
However, Xia Ruofei was not discouraged. In fact, when he had just finished drawing, he already knew where the problem was.
It was not that there was a deviation in his technique, nor was it that he did not have good control of his power. Instead, when he was engraving this formation pattern, the formation pattern more than a hundred steps ahead of him clashed with it. The aura was suddenly messed up. The energy carried by the formation pattern also began to run amok, finally causing the disk array to crack.
In other words … the design of the core disk array might have to be changed.
Xia Ruofei could not help but frown. Every formation pattern of this core disk array was finally determined by him after repeated deliberations. If there was a problem in the design, the changes would be huge.
However, Xia Ruofei did not panic. Instead, he rested for a while and calmed himself down.
Then, he began to analyze the design of the core disk array. He took out a piece of paper and continued to deduce.
Gradually, Xia Ruofei's eyebrows relaxed. He realized that the design actually did not need any major adjustments, nor did he need to change other materials to solve the problem of the aura clashing.
Of course, whether it was effective or not still needed to be tested in practice. Otherwise, no matter how perfect the theoretical deduction was, there might still be problems when it was used in practice. Just like the formation pattern just now, it would definitely not be discovered without actually trying it.
What Xia Ruofei changed was the order of carving the formation pattern. Since these two formation patterns clashed, it would be better to change their relationship.
Of course, this was not as simple as swapping the two formation patterns. The disk array was interlinked. After adjusting a place, there might be many formation patterns that had to be adjusted in order.
Xia Ruofei quickly performed calculations on the paper. It took about an hour to determine the adjustment plan of the formation pattern sequence.
Next, it was time to verify it.
Xia Ruofei looked at the remaining two jade disks. He took a deep breath, picked up one of the jade disks, and then decisively began to carve.
Was the temporary adjustment rigorous? Would it cause a greater aura clashing after changing the order? Everything was unknown. He could only wait for the test in practice.
Moreover, Xia Ruofei only brought three jade disks this time. Now, one of them was cracked, and there were only two left. If there was a problem with this one, then the only jade disk had to succeed. Otherwise, the entire plan would be greatly affected.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei was actually under a lot of pressure at this time.
However, once he entered the state of carving the formation, Xia Ruofei's mind would not have any distracting thoughts at all. He would only devote himself to carving the formation.
Time passed minute by minute, and more than five hours had passed.
Xia Ruofei finally arrived at the position where the aura clashed. His carving speed did not change at all, and his hands were surprisingly stable. He did not hesitate to carve directly.
This was the first formation pattern that he changed the order of, and it was perfectly carved on the disk array.
Although the formation had not yet taken shape, this formation pattern landed very steadily. There was no change in the aura at all.
This made Xia Ruofei feel slightly relieved. He continued to work hard and carve step by step.
Finally, he finished carving all the adjusted formation patterns. If it was the same situation as the previous jade disk, the jade disk would not be able to withstand the constant clashing of the aura at this point, and cracks would eventually appear.
But now, the carving was about two-thirds done. Everything was still very stable, and there were no accidents.
Xia Ruofei was slightly delighted. It seemed that his modification was successful.
He did not have time to celebrate. Soon, he devoted himself to carving the following formation patterns.
As for the remaining one-third, the difficulty would only increase. Hence, Xia Ruofei had to be even more cautious.
After more than four hours, Xia Ruofei finally finished carving the last stroke.
Then, he almost collapsed on the bed. The carving process just now seemed calm, but it was actually full of various stimuli. There were two or three times when he almost collapsed directly. Fortunately, he relied on his experience and understanding of the Great Void Mystical Clear Formation to finally complete it smoothly!
More than five hours later, when the carving of the disk array was more than two-thirds done, there was suddenly a slight cracking sound. Xia Ruofei's movements suddenly stagnated, and then a bitter smile appeared on his face. There was actually a problem with the carving this time.
Xia Ruofei stopped immediately. There was a crack on the disk array, and it could no longer be used. In other words, the non-stop efforts of more than five hours were all in vain.
However, Xia Ruofei was not discouraged. In fact, he already knew where the problem was when he finished carving the disk array.
It was not that there was a deviation in his technique, nor was it that he did not have good control of his power. Instead, when he was carving this formation pattern, a formation pattern more than a hundred steps ahead of him clashed with it. The aura was suddenly messed up, and the energy carried by the formation pattern also began to run amok, finally causing the disk array to crack.
In other words … the design of the core disk array might have to be changed.
Xia Ruofei could not help but frown. Every formation pattern of this core disk array was finally determined by him after repeated deliberation. If there was a problem in the design, the changes would be huge.
However, Xia Ruofei did not panic. Instead, he rested for a while and calmed himself down.
Then, he began to analyze the design of the core disk array and took out a piece of paper to continuously deduce.
Gradually, Xia Ruofei's eyebrows relaxed. He realized that the design actually did not need to make any major adjustments, nor did he need to change other materials to solve the problem of the aura clashing.
Of course, whether it was effective or not still needed to be tested in practice. Otherwise, no matter how perfect the theoretical deduction was, there might still be problems when it was used in practice. Just like the formation pattern just now, it would definitely not be discovered without actually trying it.
What Xia Ruofei changed was the order of carving the formation pattern. Since these two formation patterns clashed with each other, it would be better to change their relationship.
Of course, this was not as simple as swapping the two formation patterns. The disk array was interlinked. After adjusting a place, there might be a lot of related formation patterns that needed to be adjusted in order.
Xia Ruofei quickly performed calculations on a piece of paper. It took almost an hour for him to confirm the plan of adjusting the formation pattern sequence.
Next, it was time to verify it.
Xia Ruofei looked at the remaining two jade disks and took a deep breath. He picked up one of the jade disks and decisively began to carve.
