In midair, the silhouette was engulfed by murky air and it was difficult to see its face. However, the Qi it was emitting was extremely terrifying. It was like a God had just arrived. Even the palace with the array was shaking.
The Array of the Astonished Gods was already a famous heavenly array in Yuezhou. Now that it had successfully transformed, its capabilities must've increased. Though it can't surpass the heavenly array, at the very least, it will be at the peak of the heavenly array.
It wasn't hard to imagine just how powerful the spiritual being before them was!
"It really gained sentience!"
Everyone was in awe. They originally doubted what Ling Xian said and thought that even if the transformation was successful, there was no way an array could gain sentience. Yet now, the Array of the Astonished Gods had transformed into a human shape. This was enough to prove that he was right and that the array had successfully transformed.
Therefore, why wouldn't everyone be shocked?
All eyes were now on Ling Xian, full of disbelief.
As much as they were shocked, they also felt ecstatic.
The Array of the Astonished Gods was absolutely loyal to the Shang Qing Sect. The stronger it was, the more powerful the Sect would be. This naturally made Ji Qian Bai and them ecstatic. They felt like even though they lost face, it was worth it.
Just as everyone was exhilarated, the silhouette slowly descended before Ling Xian and did something nobody expected.
He bowed down slightly and said, "Thank you, human. I owe you a favor."
At that, Ling Xian's face was full of smiles.
The original goal of his trip was to display his capabilities and lure Yu Wu Xiu into his trap so the Sect would take him seriously. However, after a series of events, his gains from this trip had multiplied.
First of all, he slapped Ji Qian Bai and the other important figures in the face and forced them to apologize to him. This satisfied him mentally.
Then, he successfully transformed the Array of the Astonished Gods. Not only did he gain the gratitude of the important figures, he also gained 100,000 contribution points.
More importantly, he owed the Array of the Astonished Gods a favor.
Remember that before the transformation, this array was already insanely powerful. Now that its capabilities have increased, how valuable was a favor from him? One day, it will for sure have unexpected effects!
Therefore, Ling Xian was very happy and smiled, "You are being too polite. I am merely doing my best."
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to transform. No matter what, I will remember your kindness." The silhouette shook his head and no longer paid attention to Ling Xian. He shifted his gaze towards Ji Qian Bai and them.
"I have protected the Shang Qing Sect for tens of thousands of years. I cannot believe that there will be a day when I gain consciousness."
Hearing this, Ji Qian Bai and them exchanged glances. Then, they paid their respect and said in unison, "Greetings, Array of the Astonished Gods."
From a certain perspective, the seniority of the Array of the Astonished Gods was frighteningly high. In the past, he was a dead object. Now that it had gained sentience, they naturally couldn't treat it as a formation, but as a senior.
After all, the Array of the Astonished Gods had existed for tens of thousands of years and was extremely powerful. Naturally, it deserved to be called a master.
"Milord? That's a suitable name. "
The human-shaped blurry figure said with a smile. He then shifted his gaze to Yu Wu Xiu and said, "I can sense that person's aura from you. I guess you are his descendant."
"I am Yu Wu Xiu. Greetings, milord."
The corner of Yu Wu Xiu's lips curled up and she revealed a gentle smile.
She knew very well just how powerful the transformed Array of the Astonished Gods was. Therefore, she tried her best to be as humble as possible and didn't dare to act rashly.
"You really are his descendant. This Qi sure makes me miss it. It also makes me hate it." The human-shaped silhouette made a statement that was hard to understand. Then, its silhouette began to fade and the golden array board disappeared along with it.
"I just gained consciousness and there are many things I don't understand. I will leave first. But do not worry, I will not leave the Shang Qing Sect. After all, this is my home. "
Hearing this, Ji Qian Bai frowned. But very quickly, his brows relaxed.
Since the silhouette had said that he wouldn't leave the Shang Qing Sect, then there was nothing to worry about.
"It is no wonder you are a strange being transformed from a heavenly array. Even though you just gained consciousness, your intelligence is equivalent to that of an adult. You are not as ignorant as the Petal of Enlightenment."
Ling Xian mumbled. From the transformed Array of the Astonished Gods to the Purple Dwarf inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals, he couldn't help but exclaim. The difference between the two was huge.
Through the humanoid being's speech, it was obvious that his intelligence and thinking process were not lower than any adult's. The Petal of Enlightenment, however, was still as ignorant as ever, acting like a child.
However, remembering that the Purple Dwarf was a pure Elemental and had a limitless future, Ling Xian's mood improved.
Though humanoid beings were extremely capable, they were transformed from a heavenly array after all. They were only half Elemental. However, the Purple Dwarf was a pure Elemental with shocking potential. In the future, it will for sure surpass the Array of the Astonished Gods!
Thinking about it that way, Ling Xian's mood improved. He shifted his gaze towards Ji Qian Bai and smiled, "Headmaster, since I have helped the Array of the Astonished Gods successfully transform, shouldn't you give me the 100,000 contribution points you spoke of?"
"Haha, of course."
Ji Qian Bai laughed out loud, showing how happy he was.
After all, the powerfulness of the Array of the Astonished Gods was equivalent to the Shang Qing Sect's powerfulness. As the Headmaster, of course he was happy. The way he looked at Ling Xian softened, as if he didn't lose face because of Ling Xian.
Everyone was ecstatic as well. The way they looked at Ling Xian was full of admiration. At once, compliments arose one after another.
"What an outstanding Heaven's Favorite. I cannot believe you are so knowledgeable."
"Yeah. You are merely a young man in his twenties, yet you were able to help the array transform successfully. This is enough to prove how powerful you are with arrays."
"This is double happiness. Not only did the Array of the Astonished Gods grow stronger, but we also acquired such an excellent apprentice. The Shang Qing Sect sure is lucky."
Everyone chimed in and complimented Ling Xian.
The Leader of Arrays, in particular, was looking at him with passion. If it weren't for the fact that there were others here, he would've rushed up and dragged Ling Xian into the night to talk.
Yu Wu Xiu was the same. Even though her expression was calm, there was a burning desire deep within her eyes.
It was obvious that after what just happened, she was even more determined to steal Ling Xian's talent.
"Everyone, you are flattering me. I simply happen to know something about the transformation of arrays."
Ling Xian brandished his hand. He wasn't here to listen to these people compliment him. Therefore, he softly smiled and said in a roundabout way, "Headmaster, I have something to do. I need to leave immediately."
Hearing this, Ji Qian Bai was first startled. Then, he realized that Ling Xian was hinting for him to hand over his contribution points.
Shaking his head with a smile, he said in a soft voice, "As the Supreme Headmaster, I reward Ling Xian with 100,000 contribution points. Effective immediately."
At those words, a mysterious wave of energy descended. Then, Ling Xian felt like the token he was holding had gained something.
"Alright, look at your token. There should be an extra 100,000 contribution points." Ji Qian Bai smiled.
Hearing this, Ling Xian took out the token from his chest pocket and saw a new line of small characters.
Contribution Points: 100,000
At this, he revealed a faint smile and silently exclaimed, "This trip sure was worth it. Not only did I complete my goal, but I also gained a great favor and 100,000 contribution points. I sure didn't come for nothing."
100,000 contribution points, to most descendants, was an astronomical number. It was wealth that they could never achieve in their lifetime.
Even some ordinary elders wouldn't be able to reach 100,000 contribution points.
Therefore, why wouldn't Ling Xian be happy?
100,000 contribution points was enough for him to buy many treasures.
"What do you think? Are you satisfied?" Ji Qian Bai revealed a faint smile.
"Of course I am. Thank you, Supreme Headmaster." Ling Xian paid his respect, feeling very happy.
"You deserve this. There is no need to thank me. I should be the one thanking you." Ji Qian Bai brandished his hand, his face was full of appreciation.
Everyone else reacted the same.
At this, Ling Xian smiled, "If that's the case, then I will leave now."
"Okay, you can leave." Ji Qian Bai nodded.
Ling Xian paid his respect to everyone. His gaze lingered on Yu Wu Xiu for a few seconds before he left the grand hall.
After he left, Yu Wu Xiu revealed a meaningful smile. Her eyes were full of greed.
It was as if she was looking at a rare treasure.
Noticing this woman's gaze, Ji Qian Bai frowned. Everyone else frowned as well.
As the upper management of the Shang Qing Sect, they naturally knew about some secrets. However, because of this woman's high status, they didn't say anything.
They sighed in unison, and a hint of pity flashed in their eyes.
Pity who?
Of course it was Ling Xian.
…..
Inside the dorm, Ling Xian was completely unaware that Ji Qian Bai and them were feeling pity for him. Even if he did, he would've laughed.
Because his goal was to make Yu Wu Xiu fall for him and to make her take his talent.
Only then would he be able to overcome his inner demons and completely let go of this unforgettable woman. Or else the obsession in his heart wouldn't disappear and his cultivation would be stuck.
"Now that I have 100,000 contribution points, I should see what I can buy. If possible, I should try to acquire the best inheritance from the Shang Qing Sect."
Grinning, Ling Xian took out his white jade token and injected his Qi into it.
Immediately, a giant and transparent screen appeared in his brain. On it, there were countless names of treasures, the rights to purchase them, and the amount of contribution points needed.
This item was called the Exchange System. It was an extremely mysterious treasure. As long as the descendants of the Shang Qing Sect injected their Qi into their token, they would be able to see it.
Of course, they could only see it. If they wanted to purchase the treasures, they would have to go to the Hall of Mission.
"I have forgotten a lot of things from the Hidden Territory. For example, I have no recollection of the treasures listed in the Exchange System. Let me see just what kind of treasures are listed in the Shang Qing Sect's Exchange System. "
Revealing a faint smile, Ling Xian focused his gaze. Then, he was astounded by all the heavenly treasures on the screen.
