Xia Pingan was completely immersed in the refining of the array disc. Time flew by in the secret chamber for a whole seven days. He didn't even pay attention to the rumbling of his stomach. He casually drank some water and threw two Fasting Pills into his mouth. After that, he didn't care about it anymore.
During this time, he even failed twice when refining the array base.
Seven days later, the secret chamber was filled with thick fog. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the fog, and from time to time, sharp sword light flashed through the fog, stirring it up and causing it to roil.
As Xia Pingan struck out the last seal, the eight golden swords, lightning, and fog that were flying in the air in the secret chamber instantly disappeared, and a golden array disc appeared in Xia Pingan's hand. Xia Pingan finally exhaled deeply. Looking at the array disc in his hand, a smile appeared on his face. "It's finally refined!"
The array disc in Xia Pingan's hand was somewhat similar to the array disc of the Tortoiseshell Five Elements Inverted Eight Trigrams Sword Array. It was just that there were now six golden turtles and eight golden swords, which were respectively located in the eight positions of the array disc — Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui. There were also additional array patterns of fog and thunder and fire that only array masters could understand.
Compared to the array disc of the Tortoiseshell Five Elements Inverted Eight Trigrams Sword Array that Xia Pingan had refined, this array disc was more like an improved version of the previous one. It was more powerful, and its offensive and defensive capabilities were on a whole new level. This also meant that Xia Pingan's array skills had improved.
If it had been this array disc that had trapped Deacon Ling, that battle would have been even easier.
"If the golden turtles were refined with Taiyi Black Gold, the defensive power of the array disc would be thirty percent stronger. If the eight flying swords were refined with celestial cyan iron, orichalcum, fiery gold, and other materials that corresponded to the array positions of the Eight Trigrams, the flying swords would also be more powerful. If the same array disc could be stacked into a chain array, one array disc could be placed on top of another, and the complete array disc could be refined into an array weapon. In this way, one array disc could be used to attack, defend, and trap. Adding in combat puppets, the array disc could be stacked infinitely …"
Looking at the array disc in his hand, Xia Pingan muttered to himself, his eyes flashing. He still had many ideas about this array disc, but due to the conditions, he could only do this for now. Arrays were profound and profound, and there was still a long way to go in the future. This array disc could be continuously improved in the future, and become the basic array disc for him to explore the Dao of arrays....
"Hmm, if the previous tortoiseshell Five Elements Inverted Eight Trigrams Sword Array was version 1.0, then this array disc in front of me should be version 2.0. I'll use this array disc to conquer the world, and slowly improve it in the future …"
At this moment, Xia Pingan once again discovered that his stomach was growling. It seemed like it had been two days since he had last eaten a fasting pill.
This time, he had stayed in the secret chamber for seven days, almost without sleep or rest. His brain was working at high speed, and his spirit was highly concentrated. It was only when the array disc in front of him was completed that Xia Pingan felt a trace of fatigue. He put away the array disc, walked directly out of the secret chamber, and went to the small courtyard outside.
After stretching his body a little, Xia Pingan pushed open the courtyard door and walked out.
After changing his avatar, it was as if he had changed his life. The troubles caused by his previous avatar seemed to have disappeared completely. Even his mood became relaxed.
There was a restaurant in the Star River Manor, which was right above the waterfall in the cave. The guests who lived here could eat in the restaurant at any time.
After leaving his courtyard, Xia Pingan immediately soared into the sky. After more than ten seconds, he landed at the entrance of the Star River Manor's restaurant. The waterfall flowed down from the side of the restaurant. The environment of dining here was really good. The entire restaurant overlooked most of the courtyard in the cave.
The restaurant was filled with summoned maidservants. Xia Pingan entered the restaurant.
Half of the restaurant was a transparent food storage. There was a dazzling array of food inside. If you wanted to eat something, you could order it on the spot and choose your own ingredients. The chef of the restaurant would prepare it for you on the spot. Everything would be done right under your eyes. After the food was prepared, it would be tested for poison, which would eliminate the possibility of being poisoned.
Xia Pingan casually ordered some ingredients, and the two chefs of the restaurant began to prepare the food on the kitchen counter in front of Xia Pingan.
If he could summon chefs, it would be very convenient in the future. However, he didn't know what kind of realm bead he would use to summon chefs.
Thinking of chefs, the names of a few famous chefs in history immediately popped up in Xia Pingan's mind. Yi Yin, Yi Ya, Tai He Gong, Shi Zu, Fan Zheng, Lady Liu …
An hour later, the ingredients selected by Xia Pingan were finally made into dishes that were full of color, aroma, and taste. They were then served.
Mapo Tofu, Dongpo Pork, Boiled Cabbage, a platter, and a bowl of sparkling and translucent rice. These simple dishes made Xia Pingan's appetite whet. He felt that his taste buds had come back to life. Although the Fasting Pill could prevent hunger, eating that kind of food would make people lose the pleasure of enjoying delicious food.
Of course, these dishes were called different names here, but they were cooked in exactly the same way.
Halfway through the meal, Xia Pingan felt that his HP bar was full again. Then, he saw a familiar face appear in the Star River Manor.
Dressed in a red robe, Liang Tian was leading two white-robed disciples. Accompanied by a maidservant of the Star River Manor, they strode in from the entrance of the Star River Manor. They directly walked to the entrance of the courtyard where Meng Ziqi lived.
Seeing Liang Tian, Xia Pingan thought to himself, 'It's finally here.' After Long Huan went missing for seven days in the Immortal City, as Long Huan's commander and deacon, he finally realized that something was wrong and brought people to look for him.
This reaction wasn't slow. Nobody reported the case because these few days were still Long Huan's holidays and free time. At least, it meant that Liang Tian was still doing his job.
Even without Xia Pingan's order, the Child of Fortune beside him had already flown to Liang Tian's side — to eat melons at a close distance!
…
"Did Master Long Huan enter here?" Liang Tian turned his head and asked the maidservant who brought him here.
"Yes!" The maidservant nodded, "Master Long Huan seems to be here to visit his friend!"
"Who lives here?"
"Meng Ziqi, a summoner who came from the Immortal Sea!"
"What about that Meng Ziqi?"
"He left the Star River Manor seven days ago and hasn't returned yet!"
Hearing this, Liang Tian's expression turned grave, "Did Master Long Huan come out of this courtyard these few days?"
"No!" The maidservant shook her head, "It's normal for summoners who live here to not come out for several months!"
"Open the door, I want to go in!"
"Ah … I don't have this authority. This needs Supervisor Lu's personal approval …" The maidservant shook her head and said.
"You can tell your Supervisor Lu that the one who brought people here to break the door is Liang Tian!"
Liang Tian didn't speak any more nonsense. His gaze turned cold as he waved his hand. A scorching fireball flew out from his hand and directly smashed onto the door. The door of the courtyard was instantly blasted into pieces and collapsed in an instant.
The key to the courtyard had long been left inside. The protective array of the courtyard was actually closed. When the door was smashed, the array inside wasn't activated. The moment the door collapsed, Liang Tian entered the courtyard. After sweeping his gaze around, he went straight to the secret room.
The moment he entered the secret room, Liang Tian saw the few lines of words left behind by Xia Pingan.
After seeing those words, Liang Tian's expression instantly changed. Without thinking, he took out a crystal secret talisman from his interspatial equipment and crushed it.
Following which, Liang Tian retreated from the secret room and stood guard outside the courtyard.
In less than ten minutes, seven to eight red robed attendants, over a hundred white robed disciples, as well as Supervisor Fu who was wearing a blue robe, flew in from the entrance of the Star River Manor and landed in the surroundings of the small courtyard.
Only the red robed attendants and Supervisor Fu entered the small courtyard. The other white robed disciples stood guard outside.
Once Supervisor Fu arrived, Liang Tian immediately went forward and performed a Mute Enchantment. He moved closer to Supervisor Fu's ear and whispered something.
Supervisor Fu's face was as black as ink. He waved his hand and asked the other red robed attendants to wait in the courtyard. Then, he asked Liang Tian to bring him into the secret room.
After entering the secret room and looking at the words on the wall, Supervisor Fu's expression changed — — Killing the Soul Master disciple of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect, allowing his own disciple to infiltrate the Ten Thousand Gods Sect, and even deliberately coveting the Holy Spring of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect in the Undying Sea. If the words on the wall were true, Old Monster Tianhua deserved to die.
"Supervisor Fu, I feel that the disappearance of Attendant Ling these two days must be related to this …" Liang Tian said.
"I will report this matter directly to the Elder Hall …"
Supervisor Fu didn't say a word. He just waved his hand and directly peeled off the metal wall with words in the secret room. He put the metal wall into his interspatial equipment and left the secret room with a sullen face.
The people from the Hall of Supervisors came and left quickly. Almost no one knew what had happened.
…
Xia Pingan, who saw everything, was in the dining room. He picked up the green and white Boiled Cabbage and ate it happily. This Boiled Cabbage, eaten together with Dongpo Pork, was just right to relieve the grease …
