Chapter 321: Chapter 192: The Lu Family and the Wang Family (Part 2)

“Alright, remember the order from Five Dragons Island, don’t act recklessly!”

At the mention of Five Dragons Island, everyone turned solemn, and the patriarch of the Wang Family also had a grim expression.

The Wang Family once fled all the way to the Demon Beast Abyss and then became tribulation cultivators, but they ended up being tribulation cultivators raised by Five Dragons Island.

The purpose was obvious to anyone smart enough; it was nothing more than eliminating dissidents and accumulating wealth.

…

Time flew by.

[Life Span: 94/253]

[Realm: Mid-stage Foundation Establishment (92/100)]

In the cave residence, Lin Chang’an slowly opened his eyes, and seeing his cultivation realm improve, he couldn’t help but sigh lightly.

“Indeed, low-grade spirit roots are not only slow in cultivation, but also present a huge bottleneck, especially as the cultivation level gets higher, this feeling becomes more apparent.”

He was only at mid-stage Foundation Establishment with 90 experience points and already felt the bottleneck. If it were a middle-grade spirit root, he might not feel the bottleneck until 93 experience points.

The experience only increased by two points this year, making Lin Chang’an shake his head.

“But with the beast tide coming, perhaps I can take this opportunity to collect a large amount of resources, and then go into a long retreat.”

Lin Chang’an slowly got up and went to the desk, picking up the near Tier Three spiritual brush he had obtained a year ago at the Five Dragon Island Market.

As the spiritual brush sketched, a perfect talisman emitted a trace of an electric arc, with the word “Thunder” appearing in the center of the talisman.

[Tier Two Upper Grade Talisman Master (Grandmaster 3635/5000)]

Seeing the Thunder Shock Talismans, Lin Chang’an showed a satisfied smile.

He had been preparing for the beast tide for more than a year.

The best way to counter sea beasts was with thunder attribute attacks.

He accumulated a considerable number of Tier Two Upper Grade Thunder Shock Talismans, and even purchased and drew more than thirty near Tier Three talismans at the market for self-protection.

“However, to be more secured and even to kill demon beasts in large numbers, I still need to rely on arrays.”

He gently put down the spiritual brush and raised his hand, causing several array discs and array flags of various sizes to float out of the storage bag.

The main array disc was naturally the ’Blood Slaughter Red Sun Array’ he obtained from the secret realm, and the sub-array discs and array flags were those he had custom-made over the last few years.

He had even secretly started preparing back in Celestial Profound City.

“It’s a pity I don’t have time to study artifact refining now, otherwise it wouldn’t be so troublesome.”

Lin Chang’an sighed, as his priority was to focus on cultivation and plan for Core Formation, leaving no extra time to learn artifact refining.

This meant that over the years, he had to find different people to craft similar array discs and flags separately to complete them.

“A Tier Three upper grade array; it’s a pity that in these years, I could only find low-grade materials to refine it. The current power of this array can at best exert only Tier Two power.”

Seeing the different materials of the sub-array discs and flags, some Tier Two and two near Tier Three, Lin Chang’an was helpless.

To avoid revealing that he had a Tier Three major array, he had someone craft them all with the power standard of Tier Two array discs and flags.

[Tier Two Middle Grade Array Master (Mastery 349/1000)]

If it were an array novice, it would be easy to be caught, but he was an actual Tier Two Middle Grade Array Master.

There would naturally be no oversight when he had someone craft the array discs and flags.

“The strength of an array depends not only on the cultivator’s own strength but also on the holder’s comprehension of array techniques.”

For example, with the same array, a cultivator ignorant of arrays, relying only on the array discs and flags, could at most exert seventy to eighty percent of its power.

But a cultivator proficient in arrays, after setting up the array, could fully unleash its power, and even tapping into the geography, could exert even greater power.

“The Blood Slaughter Red Sun Array is a large-scale hidden killing array, just right for dealing with the beast tide.”

Lin Chang’an’s eyes flickered, ready to experience the power of this array with the upcoming beast tide.

…

“Old Lin, is this really the beast tide of the Demon Beast Abyss? This precursor is nothing like what we knew.”

As the sea area entered the rainy season, there were storms every now and then, and the sky was overcast with dark clouds.

This made Lin Chang’an, as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, feel awe for the power of heaven and earth.

“Old Hu, this beast tide brought by the migration of the Giant Bone Sea Fish Beast covers a wide range…”

“Alright, Old Lin, your words are too convoluted for an old rough man like me. Isn’t it just that every ten years, these creatures return to their birthplace area to land for mating?”

Goodness.

Old Hu’s words left Lin Chang’an speechless.

But there was truth in the bluntness.

The Giant Bone Sea Fish Beast resembled a mix of monitor lizards and crocodilian species, with a massive body, hard scale armor, four limbs, and a huge sharp mouth.

“Alright, Old Lin, if anything comes up, remember to send me a message.”

Glancing at the dark, stormy sea, Old Hu shook his head and, leaving behind those words, was ready to leave.

Lin Chang’an chuckled and nodded, but at this moment, the Cyan-Horned Bull let out a moo, and its huge form appeared, leaving Old Hu at a loss for words.

“Old Lin, if I encounter any problems, you must not leave me unaided.”

Though he had advanced to late-stage Foundation Establishment, Lin Chang’an’s strength was not weak, and with a Tier Two Middle Stage spirit pet, his strength might not be any less.

This left Old Hu awkward yet shamelessly speaking.

“Alright, as long as you have enough spirit stones, the island protection array will prevent the demon beasts from entering.”

With a smile, Lin Chang’an waved his hand, watching Old Hu leave, and his gaze couldn’t help but drift to the array tower.
