"If you don't want to die, then shut your mouth."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Xian glanced around. There was no killer's intent, but it made everyone shudder.
Immediately, everyone remembered how terrifying this man was and shut their mouths. In an instant, they transformed from a lion to a sheep.
Just a second ago, they were arrogant and taunting Ling Xian. The next second, they were docile and docile. It was hard to imagine that these people were truly the proud sons of heaven whose names shook the world and ruled over their own races.
One has to admit that they were scared of Ling Xian. They were afraid that if they angered this demon, he would kill them with one slap.
"Very good."
Looking at the Heaven's Favorites who had shut their mouths, Ling Xian nodded in satisfaction. He asked Yan Ning Zhi, "What do you think? Do you accept?"
Yan Ning Zhi raised an eyebrow. This method of sparring, coupled with the Spiritual Gathering Array, was no different than admitting defeat.
Therefore, she misunderstood.
It wasn't that she thought Ling Xian had no real skills, she thought he was purposely losing to her.
Therefore, she felt insulted. She asked coldly, "Ling Xian, are you insulting me?"
"Insulting?" Ling Xian shook his head, knowing that she had misunderstood him. However, he was too lazy to explain and decided to use facts to speak for themselves.
"What's the difference between this sparring method and a Spirit Gathering Formation that even a Formation Master can craft? Isn't this the same as directly admitting defeat? You dare to say you are not insulting me? "Yan Ning Zhi raised an eyebrow, her face was filled with anger.
Her Master was Jiang Cheng Zi. Ever since she was a child, she has displayed unparalleled talent in arrays. Her elders had high hopes for her to achieve greatness in arrays.
She did not disappoint her elders. When she was 14, she was already a master of arrays. Today, she has reached a profound realm and is now known as the number one array master of the younger generation!
Even many famous Array Masters might not be able to defeat her for sure.
Yet now, Ling Xian had suggested this method of sparring. This made her feel humiliated, as if Ling Xian did not think highly of her.
"You can think whatever you want. You just need to tell me, do you accept or not?" Ling Xian softly grinned, not thinking much of the woman's anger, "If you don't accept, then go back to where you came from. I have no time to play with you."
Yan Ning Zhi's face was frosty, "I will ask you one last time, are you sure you want to use this method?"
"That's right. If you can use my technique to create a Spiritual Gathering Array, then I lose." Ling Xian grinned.
"Good, good, good." Yan Ning Zhi said 'good' three times and coldly laughed, "Since you want to humiliate yourself, then I will fulfill your wish."
"It's still too early to make a decision. We'll soon know who's the one who's asking for humiliation."
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. Then, three crystal clear spiritual stones appeared in front of him, exuding dense spiritual energy.
The Spirit Gathering Formation was a basic formation that every formation master must know. At the same time, it was also the most common formation in the Immortal Cultivation World. It was divided into five levels.
A miniature Spirit Gathering Array could be refined with only three Spirit Stones, and it could increase the surrounding Spirit Qi by about ten percent.
A miniature Spirit Gathering Array could be refined with 30 Spirit Stones, and it could increase the surrounding Spirit Qi by about 30 percent.
A medium Spirit Gathering Array could be refined with 300 Spirit Stones, and it could increase the surrounding Spirit Qi by about 70 percent. Some medium sized Spirit Gathering Arrays were of this level.
As for the large and high level Spirit Gathering Arrays, those were a bit far away, so let's not talk about them right now.
Without a doubt, what Ling Xian was about to make was the simplest miniature Spirit Gathering Array.
Seeing Ling Xian take out the three Spirit Stones, Yan Ning Zhi knew what he was thinking. She was certain that Ling Xian was playing with her, and her anger intensified.
A miniature Spirit Gathering Array was the simplest of all arrays!
Even an array apprentice could make it!
Therefore, everyone here thought Ling Xian would lose for sure. Even though they didn't say anything because of his power, they all had mocking expressions on their faces.
Seeing this, Ling Xian shook his head, thinking to himself, "Laugh all you want. Let's see if you can still laugh after I make it."
The reason why he chose to make the miniature Spirit Gathering Array was not because he wanted to play with Yan Ning Zhi, nor was it because he wanted to admit defeat. It was because he only knew how to make one.
These days, he had been studying Feng Qing Ming's experiences and the way he made arrays. He didn't learn how to make arrays.
Therefore, he only knew how to make the simplest miniature Spirit Gathering Array. However, he was confident that he would win.
This was all because Ling Xian had reached a realm that all array masters dream of achieving!
Instantaneous Array!
Just like the name suggests, it meant that with a wave of one's hand, the array would be formed.
This was a very mysterious realm in the field of arrays, and it was also a very insane ability!
It should be known that any kind of formation in the world was very time-consuming. Even the simplest miniature Spirit Gathering Formation would require at least an hour to refine.
But with this ability, one could make it instantaneously!
Think about it, when two array masters are in a battle of life and death, one is still busy making an array, while the other has already made it and can kill the other in an instant!
Not only can he gain the upper hand, but he can also create an endless amount of arrays. How heaven-defying was this ability?
Therefore, this realm is the lifelong pursuit of all array masters!
Normally speaking, only those who have reached the Grandmaster Realm can understand this powerful ability. From then on, they can form arrays with a wave of their hands and become a respected Array Master.
Of course, there are exceptions. You don't have to reach the grandmaster realm to use this ability. Some people who were extremely talented in the Array Dao could comprehend this realm in advance.
For example, Ling Xian.
He was a newbie who had just entered the field of arrays, yet he was able to understand abilities that most array masters cannot understand in their entire lives.
Even though this was all thanks to the Immortal of Array's inheritance, it was not hard to imagine how enlightened he was. Or else a newbie who had only studied arrays for three to four months would not be able to learn the Instantaneous Array!
"I am about to begin. Watch carefully." Ling Xian grinned. His confidence lit up the universe.
"Go ahead. I, Yan Ning Zhi, want to see what you can do with a miniature spiritual gathering array." Yan Ning Zhi hissed. Other than anger on her face, there was also a trace of disappointment.
A spiritual gathering array was the most basic of arrays and was widely recognized as one that could not be improved upon. She did not believe Ling Xian could come up with anything new.
Originally, she really wanted to spar with Ling Xian. But now, after realizing that Ling Xian did not live up to his name, she lost all interest.
Yes, he did not live up to his name!
A person who proposed this method of sparring and wanted to make a miniature spiritual gathering array, if it wasn't a name, then what was?
"How disappointing. I thought there was finally someone on the 36 islands who could compete with me. I can't believe he is just a scammer." Yan Ning Zhi silently sighed. She was not interested at all and was too lazy to even watch.
However, when she accidentally glanced over to Ling Xian, she froze.
Ling Xian's expression was calm as he placed the three spiritual stones into a triangle. Then, he casually waved his hand.
Then, a white light flashed and everything returned to normal.
The three spiritual stones were suspended in midair in the shape of a triangle. There was now a connection between them, which increased the density of the spiritual energy within a meter radius.
However, it was only 10 percent denser than before.
"Alright, I am done." Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. Looking at the miniature spiritual gathering array before him, he was very satisfied with the result of his first attempt.
He was done?
Everyone was shocked. But when they saw the array clearly, they suppressed their laughter and looked at Ling Xian mockingly.
These people originally thought that even if Ling Xian was going to make a miniature spiritual gathering array, he would spend some time and effort to make one that was a little different.
But the spiritual gathering array before them was simple and crude. More importantly, the effect of this array was that it could increase the density of spiritual energy by 10 percent. It was no different than any other spiritual gathering array on the street.
This made everyone look at him mockingly. They forgot how terrifying Ling Xian was and began to mock him.
"Haha, I am dying of laughter. I thought he made some kind of amazing array. I can't believe it's so simple and laughable."
"Yeah, I can't anymore. I am laughing so hard my stomach hurts."
"Haha, what a big joke. I am laughing my teeth off."
"That's right. Even though I don't understand arrays, I think even an array apprentice can make a miniature spiritual gathering array better than this!"
Everyone held onto their stomachs and laughed as they stared at the young man before them. Their voices were full of sarcasm and disdain.
"A bunch of idiots with water in their brains." Ling Xian's expression was calm. He didn't care about these idiots' mockery. He remained calm and collected.
However, even though he didn't care, someone else did.
"All of you, shut up!"
Yan Ning Zhi shouted angrily. These idiots couldn't see through the array's mysteriousness. But as a Heaven's Favorite, how could she not see through it?
The reason why she only spoke now was because the moment Ling Xian waved his hand, she was stunned. Only now did she regain her composure. Then, she heard these people laughing at the spiritual gathering array and laughing at Ling Xian.
If this was before, she wouldn't have yelled at them. But now, she had to yell at these people!
This was all because she was extremely sincere and did not allow anyone to laugh at a grandmaster who had mastered the Instantaneous Formation!
Yes, she recognized that the wave of his hand represented holiness and thought Ling Xian was a grandmaster!
"I …"
Everyone was confused. They didn't understand why Yan Ning Zhi would scold them. Could it be that there was something special about that ridiculous array?
"Hmmph!"
Yan Ning Zhi coldly hissed, feeling too lazy to pay attention to these idiots. She shifted her gaze towards Ling Xian, feeling a mix of emotions.
She knew very well that the wave of a hand was a realm that only existed in legends. Not only her, even her Master, who was known as the best array grandmaster on the 36 islands, could only barely use it!
Yet now, she had personally witnessed Ling Xian use this ability. The impact she felt was unimaginable!
"Such terrifying array attainments."
Yan Ning Zhi stared at the handsome young man before her. First, there was shock on her face, then unwillingness, then helplessness, and finally, respect.
Then, her lips curled into a bitter smile. She slowly said something that silenced the entire crowd.
"Your excellency, I … I admit defeat."
