The Golden Cicada Carefree Art could only allow a cultivator to reach the Third Order Spirit Stream Realm. After that, Lu Ye would have to follow the guidance of the Red Lotus Soaring to the Heavens Secret Art to open the subsequent Spirit Apertures.
The Great Sun Coloured Glass Secret Art was only used to guide the location of the subsequent Spirit Apertures.
A moment later, a new Spirit Aperture opened. Lu Ye wanted to continue cultivating, but the surrounding environment suddenly started to distort.
He immediately stopped, knowing that his time limit on the first floor had come to an end.
His vision changed and he appeared in another room. This room didn't have the dense World Energy, so it was obviously the second floor of the Hundred Formation Pagoda. Compared to the first floor, this room was undoubtedly bigger.
A Spirit Array quickly formed. The test had arrived.
He wanted to break the Spirit Array.
Lu Ye was slightly surprised.
After suffering a loss on the first floor, he pondered for a moment. He didn't use the Profound Insight Spirit Tattoo to find the flaws in the Spirit Array. Instead, he took out the array flags from his storage bag and threw them in all directions, borrowing the power of the array flags to find the flaws in the Spirit Array.
The Profound Insight Spirit Tattoo was a good thing. It did provide Lu Ye with a lot of convenience in breaking Spirit Arrays, but it wasn't of much help in improving his Array Dao.
It was like solving a problem. Normally, the steps to solve a problem were based on the clues given by the person who came up with the problem. Step by step, the answer would be calculated slowly.
With the help of the Profound Insight Spirit Tattoo, Lu Ye could directly see the answer, completely skipping the intermediate steps.
In the future, there might be a situation where the Profound Insight Spirit Tattoo couldn't be used, so breaking the Spirit Array honestly wasn't without benefits.
The second floor's Spirit Array was slightly more difficult than the first floor's.
Lu Ye quickly found the flaws in the Spirit Array with the help of the array flags. Only then did he use the Profound Insight Spirit Tattoo to verify the results. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he started to break the Spirit Array.
Slowly, he found that this was the correct way to break through the Hundred Formation Pagoda. Because in the following tests, the chances of setting up and breaking Spirit Arrays were basically half, unlike his encounter on the first floor.
Moreover, with the large amount of benefits he obtained from the first floor, it made up for his shortcomings in Array Dao to a large extent, allowing his level of Array Dao to improve.
As a result, even if the second floor's Spirit Array was slightly more difficult than the first floor, the time he needed to set up the Spirit Array didn't change. In addition, the number of times he broke Array to break the Array increased...
In the valley where the Hundred Formation Pagoda was, many disciples of the Sky Expanse Sect were waiting.
Four hours ago, the Hundred Formation Pagoda's resonance had stopped. This resonance had a time limit and was closely related to the challenger. Once the challenger digested all the benefits, the resonance would disappear.
However, to be able to cause resonance on the first floor, it undoubtedly meant that the person challenging the tower was extraordinary. Therefore, the disciples of the Sky Expanse Sect were looking forward to him obtaining a good result on the second floor. If that happened, they would also be able to obtain some benefits.
The only thing that the Sky Expanse Sect's disciples couldn't figure out was the identity of the challenger.
Zhao Li, who was still recuperating in Bai Qian's residence, understood. He naturally knew that Lu Ye wanted to challenge the Hundred Formation Pagoda, but he didn't expect that it would resonate with the Hundred Formation Pagoda.
He also cultivated array dao, but because he had to play dead, it was inconvenient for him to show his face. He couldn't go to the valley where the Hundred-Formation Pagoda was to cultivate. This made him feel very depressed.
If it were not for the fact that Giant Armor and Yiyi were here to accompany him, he could not help but feel sad as if he had been abandoned by his sect.
"Buzz …"
The humming sound of the huge Hundred Formation Pagoda could be heard as an invisible force swept out in all directions, rapidly covering the entire valley.
"It's coming, it's coming." A Sky Expanse Sect's disciple who had been waiting for a long time laughed loudly. He hurriedly sat upright and still, feeling the inspiration that the power of resonance had for him.
If he could cause resonance on the first floor, then there would definitely be no problem on the second floor. There was a high probability that he could do the same on the third floor. As for the fourth floor, it was hard to say.
The highest record on the Sky Expanse Sect's side was for someone to cause resonance nine times in a row. In other words, the cultivators of the Sky Expanse Sect obtained benefits nine times in a row. This benefit was not the kind of practical benefit that came from the Hundred Formation Pagoda, but more of a kind of inspiration. Perhaps this kind of inspiration would allow array cultivators to have a flash of inspiration and understand some things that they didn't understand before.
Perhaps most people would gain nothing, but there were indeed people who improved their array dao attainments because of this.
Compared to the disciples' joy, Yu Xiao and Bai Qian were undoubtedly even more worried.
They had also challenged the Hundred Formation Pagoda before and knew how attractive the benefits bestowed by the Hundred Formation Pagoda were to array cultivators. It was fine that Lu Ye could cause resonance on the first floor, but it was his first time entering the Hundred Formation Pagoda. It could be said that he was young and impetuous and didn't want to hold back.
But since he could feel the hidden danger of the benefits, he should restrain himself on the second floor.
The two of them were only worried about one thing: Lu Ye had been blinded by the benefits bestowed by the Hundred Formation Pagoda. If that was the case, something would definitely happen.
It wasn't as if this had never happened before.
While they were deeply worried, on the second floor of the Hundred Formation Pagoda, Lu Ye's entire body was trembling violently. His eyes were bloodshot and his head was swollen with pain.
The spiritual qi of heaven and earth in the room had also turned into mist.
With his previous experience, he hurriedly digested what he had gained this time.
Strictly speaking, the benefits bestowed by the Hundred Formation Pagoda and the spirit runes he obtained from the Talent Tree were both enlightening. As for which experience was worse … it could only be said that both were terrible.
But there was a benefit to the experience at the Hundred Formation Pagoda. As long as he could digest the additional information in his mind, the terrible feeling would slowly disappear.
With his previous experience, Lu Ye naturally immersed himself in his thoughts.
After a few hours, Lu Ye heaved a sigh of relief.
He had digested all the benefits he had gained, and his array dao foundation had become much more solid.
Just like last time, Lu Ye hurriedly made use of the favorable environment to cultivate and break through the spirit aperture barrier.
As the days passed, the disciples of the Heaven Expanse Sect gradually boiled over.
They didn't know which ferocious person had entered the Hundred Formation Pagoda, but in a short five days, he had reached the tenth floor. Furthermore, every floor had resonated with the pagoda!
On average, it was twice a day, once during the day, and once at night …
Such a thing had never happened in the Heaven Expanse Sect for so many years.
In the past, even if someone could trigger such a resonance, it would at most be four or five times in a row. That was because once the resonance was triggered, the benefits bestowed by the Hundred Formation Pagoda would be extremely huge. It would become difficult for the challenger to digest and absorb the benefits. If it happened too many times, the cultivator simply wouldn't be able to bear it.
What kind of concept was it to trigger the resonance of ten floors in a row?
The disciples couldn't help but suspect that some array dao grandmaster had secretly come to challenge the pagoda. Otherwise, how could there be such shocking results?
Some courageous disciples went to ask their Sect Master and Great Elder, but not only did they not get an answer, they were also reprimanded by the Sect Master and Great Elder.
It was said that the sect master and grand elder were currently in a very bad mood. Their faces were filled with anxiety and worry.
It would be strange if they were in a good mood. They originally thought that Lu Ye would be aware of the dangers of the Hundred Formation Pagoda after passing the first floor and be more vigilant. Who would have thought that things weren't as they thought?
How could a Spirit Stream Realm cultivator withstand the resonance of ten floors in a row?
"Elder Bai, that brat has Soul Cleansing Water and should have used it before. His soul is much tougher than an ordinary Spirit Stream Realm cultivator. Grand Elder, you don't have to be too worried. I don't think he's a fool. Since he chose to do this, he should have his own plans." Yu Xiao spoke. Rather than saying that he was comforting Bai Qian, it was better to say that he was comforting himself.
"You don't know that brat's courage and boldness. Even if his soul is tougher than an ordinary Spirit Stream Realm cultivator's, there is still a limit. If he exceeds this limit, he won't be able to bear it. I only hope that he can leave the Hundred Formation Pagoda before he reaches his limit. Only then will there be no worries."
Who was that brat? He was a ruthless person who dared to use the Insight Spirit Rune on his eyes!
Bai Qian had cultivated for so many years, but he had never heard of any spirit rune master who dared to do so. Previously, he thought that it was a good thing that this brat dared to do what he wanted and was full of boldness.
But now, it seemed that it was a bullshit good thing. His heart had been beating fast these past few days, afraid that Lu Ye would suddenly die in the Hundred Formation Pagoda.
He had already sent a message to Zhao Li, telling him to keep an eye on Lu Ye's brand. If Lu Ye's brand dissipated, he was to report back immediately.
While Yu Xiao and Bai Qian were worried, Lu Ye was busy in the Hundred Formation Pagoda.
Lu Ye's foundation in the art of formations might not be perfect, but in the entire Nine Provinces, there were few who could compare to him.
The Hundred Formation Pagoda was like an excellent teacher. After he passed the trials, it gave him all sorts of rewards. After digesting these rewards, Lu Ye's level of the Array Dao improved greatly. Going through level after level, from easy to difficult, from simple to complex, Lu Ye's understanding of the Array Dao had reached an extremely thorough level.
No wonder the Array Dao cultivators of the Nine Provinces liked to challenge the Hundred Formation Pagoda. It was much more effective than studying Array Dao with a few books.
Every level of the Hundred Formation Pagoda was more difficult than the previous, but as he absorbed the benefits, his Array Dao level improved steadily. Therefore, even though the levels increased, the frequency of him passing the tests did not decrease by much.
Taking the tenth floor as an example, he had passed a total of forty trials in six hours, which was why he had received such a generous reward.
The difficulty increased significantly at the eleventh level.
Without the foundation laid by the previous ten levels, Lu Ye would definitely be thwarted on this level. Even if he could pass the test, he would not gain much.
But with his previous gains, things were different. Taking out suitable formation flags, Lu Ye repeated the actions of breaking and setting up formations.
Moreover, after the eleventh level, there was another type of test, which was to repair the formation.
The Hundred Formation Pagoda would form a half-finished formation, which Lu Ye would repair. Alternatively, it would form a faulty formation, which he would then find and modify to make the formation work again.
The first time he encountered it, Lu Ye was indeed delayed for a while. But after he had a clear idea, he suddenly became enlightened.
