Big Data Cultivation Chapter 992

Chapter 992: Chapter 992: Three Types of Spirit Gathering Arrays Chapter 992: Chapter 992: Three Types of Spirit Gathering Arrays Feng Jun didn't have a good impression of Qi Wukui at all; he detested that sort of arrogance in others.

However, he had never taken him too seriously–does an elephant need to care about an ant? Even if it's a proud one.

But causing trouble during the New Year period was absolutely intolerable to Feng Jun!

Perhaps, this was related to everyone's cultural environment. In big cities, the New Year's atmosphere was getting weaker, and even setting off firecrackers was not allowed, but in Chaoyang, all grudges had to be set aside during the New Year.

Even if Huang Shiren was grabbing for joy, it would be at the year's end, not during the New Year!

In the words of the police, even thieves rest during the New Year period–whoever causes trouble is deliberately asking for misfortune!

Gazi shared his opinion; they came from the same county–just because they didn't talk about it during New Year didn't mean they would let it slide!

Gazi hadn't gone home for the New Year; this was with the permission of his parents, and the situation was indeed special–the kid had gone out with Feng Jun, his epilepsy was cured, and he had made a substantial amount of money. He needed to help with watching the gate during New Year; it was a necessity… That's life.

But being bullied during the New Year period was another matter.

Feng Jun was really a bit furious, but at this moment, the voice of Li Shishi came through the intercom, “Boss, that Zhuang Haoyun has come again… at the mountain gate.”

His secular duties were indeed numerous; he got busy as soon as he returned to Luohua Manor, so he temporarily set aside the topic and led Shen Qingyi to the Gathering Spirit Array in the Bamboo Forest.

The Gathering Spirit Array was operational during the New Year period, making the spiritual energy extremely abundant.

Feng Jun indifferently said, “This place is mainly a cultivation ground for male disciples. You may use it for eight hours a day. As for how to arrange your time, it's up to you. Cultivation time can be accumulated, but not overspent.”

Shen Qingyi nodded to show she understood, and then she began to carefully examine the Gathering Spirit Array. After a long time, she couldn't believe what she saw and questioned, “Is this… an Intermediate Level Gathering Spirit Array?”

In fact, she had seen Intermediate Level Gathering Spirit Arrays on Mount Taibai and Mount Qingcheng before, but it took a while for spiritual energy to gather, and on both occasions, Feng Jun set up the Array and left.

It wasn't until she came to this Gathering Spirit Array that Shen Qingyi truly realized how wealthy and powerful Luohua was–so, martial masters cultivate inside an Intermediate Level Gathering Spirit Array?

She was currently at the Fourth Layer of Qi-refining, but even as the numero uno beauty in Kunlun, she couldn't always use an Intermediate Level Gathering Spirit Array for cultivation. Each month, she could only stay in the core of the array for five days and around the periphery for another five.

The rest of the time, she would ponder over Daoist techniques or refresh her spiritual energy on the outer peripheries of the Spirit Formation.

There's no harm without comparison–only now did the surging spiritual energy make her understand why Luohua was so dominant.

Faced with her amazement, Gazi spoke proudly, “It can support two Intermediate Level cultivators cultivating at the same time.”

Shen Qingyi remained silent. What more could she say?

After a moment of silence, she quietly exclaimed, “This is… the third type of Gathering Spirit Array?”

Feng Jun knew what she wondered about. Since Shen Qingyi followed him away from Kunlun, they first went to Mount Taibai, where he set up a Simplified Version Gathering Spirit Array at the peak of Seeking Dao.

By the time they reached Mount Qingcheng, Dong Zenghong was using a genuine Gathering Spirit Array Plate which he mentioned was a gift from Master Feng.

The Bamboo Forest of Luohua Manor contained a true Analytical Gathering Spirit Formation, even the driving Spirit Stones were “Condensed Spirit Stones.”

Realizing this, Shen Qingyi wouldn't be surprised–other branches of Daoist Sects struggled to get even one, yet Luohua's Gathering Spirit Arrays came in various types, and the differences seemed significant.

When Feng Jun heard this, he simply chuckled, “The Gathering Spirit Arrays in the world all lead to the same goal.”

This wasn't bragging–the concept of the Analytical Gathering Spirit Formation came from the genuine Gathering Spirit Array Plates, and the Simplified Version Gathering Spirit Array derived from the Analytical Version, only miniaturized and fixed for preservation.

After remaining silent for a while, Shen Qingyi couldn't help asking, “Is the Array Diagram for this Gathering Spirit Array for sale?”

Feng Jun shook his head and replied indifferently, “Forget about me not selling it; even if I did, you couldn't afford it, and even if you bought it… it still wouldn't be of much use as many materials have become extinct on Earth.”

Shen Qingyi muttered to herself internally: It seems… he indeed obtained an Immortal Mansion.

After finishing up here, the two returned to the villa, just in time to meet Zhuang Haoyun who had driven over.

Zhuang Haoyun first wished everyone a late happy New Year, and then he hesitantly asked: the Zhuang Family juniors want to go to the Danxia Heavens for trials, and he wondered… what the protocol might be.

This time, he wasn't asking for his son Zhuang Zesheng but rather for other juniors of the Zhuang Family.

From the disappearance of Zhuang Haoyun to Hua Hua's high-profile move, the descendants of the Zhuang Family finally understood: in today's society, there are indeed Cultivators, and even fairies exist.

So they started to reassess the status of the descendants of their family estate–Turns out my ancestors were pretty badass.

As a result, Deputy Governor Zhuang of Bingzhou City, who is also Zhuang Haoyun's third grandfather, specifically called him to ask what the deal was.

So during the New Year's period, the Zhuang brothers all united in confronting their Fourth Uncle Zhuang: Do you realize how precious the Stone Lamp you auctioned off is?

The people of the Zhuang Family were unaware of the Overthrowing Heaven Seal, but they clearly understood the origin and significance of the Stone Lamp–almost everyone had seen it.

That item had caught the attention of the Kunlun, so it definitely couldn't be of low value, and not only was it their family's treasure, but it also went missing due to being tricked by others.

At first, Fourth Uncle Zhuang wanted to put on airs and scold others, but several of his brothers of the same generation just straight up started throwing punches, aiming particularly at his face.

During the New Year festivities, it ended in discord.

Then someone suggested: Is it possible to get that Stone Lamp back since it's from our family… even if it takes some money.

Those who had seen Hua Hua unanimously opposed: We can ask about redeeming it, but never put on an air of “I'm the rightful owner”; not even that Butterfly is something our family can withstand, let alone the owner of the Butterfly.

Everyone turned to Zhuang Haoyun for a statement, so Zhuang Haoyun recounted his journey to the west: Mountain Master Feng went straight to Kunlun's gates to reclaim the Stone Lamp and even broke through Kunlun's grand formation… For certain reasons, I can't delve into the details, but there were many representatives from various branches of the Daoist Sects present at that time, and those who don't believe can try to find out themselves; I'm definitely not bragging to you all.

How could Mountain Master Feng let go of the item after putting in so much effort to snatch it back?

My brothers need to understand, the Stone Lamp wasn't taken from our hands but snatched back from Kunlun!

Of course, there are still some naive ones insisting that the treasure belonged to our family, and Mountain Master Feng should return it unconditionally.

But without Zhuang Haoyun's response, other members of the Zhuang Family rushed up and beat them down–Are you eager for others to find out that a foreign friend died in our family's stone cave?

In short, out of fear for Hua Hua, the Zhuang family gave up their claim on the Stone Lamp, but at the same time, their enthusiasm for cultivation was thoroughly ignited: We didn't know before, and that was that, but now that we know, how can we tarnish our ancestors' reputation?

Then, Zhuang Haoyun told everyone: The Danxia Skies will soon start the minor world trials, and anyone who feels confident can sign up.

As previously mentioned, the Zhuang family has always had a tradition of martial arts; although their martial strength isn't impressive, it still gives them some means of self-protection in times of chaos.

But when other members of the Zhuang Family heard this, they became hesitant: Why don't you, Haoyun, go and see if you can find a shortcut with Mountain Master Feng?

The purpose of Zhuang Haoyun's visit was with this task in mind, everyone acknowledged the matter of the Stone Lamp… at least no one dared to disagree. So regarding the upcoming Danxia Skies trials, perhaps they could get some consideration?

Even Feng Jun thought that the Zhuang family had some bizarre ideas; what on earth were they thinking?

He had to firmly question, “These trials… first off, don't even talk about whether you can be selected, but even if selected, there's an entry fee of ten million at the very least, not to mention taking responsibility for one's life and death, and having to hand over half of the gains, are you sure they understand all this?”

Zhuang Haoyun hesitated before vaguely responding, “The entry fee and those things are negotiable… I'll pay it if necessary.”

“The issue is that the Zhuang family's capabilities aren't up to par,” Feng Jun spread his hands openly and said frankly, “Out of all Daoist Sects and Martial Cultivators in Huaxia, only thirty-six are selected, not to demean your Zhuang family… even if they selected three hundred and sixty, it probably wouldn't include you.”

Zhuang Haoyun, with a smiling face, replied, “You're right, they lack confidence, which is why they wanted me to give you a heads up.”

Feng Jun waved his hand and said with a smile, “Don't talk to me about that, do you think just because… I took your Zhuang family's Stone Lamp, I should help out?”

Zhuang Haoyun hesitated for a moment before nodding honestly, “Some people… do indeed think that way.”

Feng Jun laughed out of exasperation, “How can nobody consider that if it weren't for me, the Stone Lamp could have been lost without a trace? Without me… you could have been silenced by murder?”

He didn't want to listen to any more retorts and made his stance clear, “According to our agreement, I reclaimed the Stone Lamp, so now it's mine. Of course, I'm not going to take your family's item for nothing, I'll pay for it.”

Zhuang Haoyun laughed wryly, “Master, don't joke. How could I take your money? Besides… I'm not short of cash.”

In truth, his business hadn't been doing that well over the past two years because his heart wasn't in running the business.

But he knew that Feng Jun was also short of money even though Master Feng's situation was bigger than his and money was tight, with cash flow not particularly abundant.

He didn't want to take money from Feng Jun; it was unfriendly behavior to squeeze someone else's cash flow, but if it was something else, that might be feasible–like Spirit Rice for instance.

Spirit Rice was a valuable item; when he first got it, Feng Tianyang immediately requested to buy his Spirit Rice, saying the price was negotiable. He brought the Spirit Rice back home and left a kilo for his third grandfather, who then called him and asked him to bring over another two hundred kilos.

Where would he get two hundred kilos from? After the New Year's, he barely had over six kilos left, not quite reaching seven.

But Feng Jun didn't mention Spirit Rice, “How about this, I'll buy your Stone Lamp with a ton of Gold, is that enough?”
