Chapter 119: Wu Yong's Astonishment! The Primal Cosmic Array!
"More rewards?"
Su Changqing looked at the sword that had fallen from the tower, a surprised smile spreading across his face.
He ran his fingers over the sharp blade, and his smile grew even wider.
"Excellent sword, and I was just in need of a good weapon."
Su Changqing casually performed a few sword maneuvers and then put it away, satisfied.
He didn't have many combat techniques, and if he had to choose, a sword was his weapon of choice.
The stone axe, after all, was too fragile for actual combat.
"But, it seems I'm even more formidable without a weapon."
"Never mind, I'll visit the Secret Technique Tower later to see if there are any suitable techniques."
With a low murmur, Su Changqing vanished from the tower's interior.
A flash of light, and he reappeared on the familiar hillside.
But this time, as soon as he materialized, a plump, excited face greeted him.
"Senior Brother!"
"My dear Senior Brother, you're back!"
Wu Yong looked at Su Changqing with a mix of excitement and relief, his words tumbling out in a jumble.
"Senior Brother, do you know? I succeeded, I really did!"
"I used your method, and it worked on the first try, hahaha."
No one could understand Wu Yong's elation and joy.
For the Primal Cosmic Body, he had willingly discarded his Fourth Realm cultivation and spent countless hours and effort.
If he had failed, he would have been devastated.
But fortune smiled upon him!
Wu Yong never imagined that the "deception" of having a Senior Brother would actually solve his complex problem!
"Senior Brother!"
Wu Yong looked at Su Changqing earnestly, thumping his chest.
"From now on, whatever difficulties you face, just call on your Junior Brother, and I'll help you handle them!"
Before, Wu Yong had only called Su Changqing "Senior Brother" out of courtesy.
But this time, he genuinely recognized this Outer Disciple of the Immortal Sect.
Regardless of cultivation or talent, this Senior Brother had given him a new future!
"Success is good. I don't know much about array techniques, but I happened to have practiced something similar."
Su Changqing smiled lightly. "The rest of the cultivation still depends on you."
"Senior Brother, what technique did you practice?"
Wu Yong quickly asked, his curiosity piqued. "I feel that the patterns you left behind are very beneficial to me."
"There are some things I still don't understand. What do you mean by 'originating the array'?"
"I understand 'array,' but what is 'origin'? Is it the power of heaven and earth, or the power of the body?"
"I experimented for a long time, but I couldn't manage to inscribe the array within my body."
Achieving the initial stage of the Primal Cosmic Body was relatively easy, but advancing to the higher stages was much more difficult.
After studying the subsequent techniques, Wu Yong found that the most crucial part was 'originating the array' and 'deriving the cosmos within the body.'
He had tried many times and could sense the origin, but he couldn't make it form an array within his body.
"Origin refers to the purest, most profound energy buried deep within a living being."
As he spoke, Su Changqing extended his hand, and a silver needle appeared.
He placed the needle on Wu Yong's chest and said softly, "Spiritual senses are useless here. Use your heart to feel."
Wu Yong immediately closed his eyes, focusing on the deepest changes within his body.
Old Sun, standing nearby, had a serious expression and was constantly on guard, but his curious gaze often drifted toward Su Changqing.
As Wu Yong calmed his mind, he immediately sensed something different.
Deep within his body, a series of unique origin energies were being guided by a nimble silver dragon, moving through his body.
"This is the origin energy!"
Wu Yong was overjoyed, trying to approach and control it.
But no matter what he did, the origin energy only paused slightly before continuing to follow the silver dragon's path.
After a short while, Su Changqing withdrew the needle and smiled at Wu Yong. "Did you feel it clearly this time?"
"I felt it!"
Wu Yong nodded excitedly but then added dejectedly, "But it's too difficult to control."
"Even if I could barely control it, how could I possibly inscribe the primordial array within my body?"
"How long will it take to reach that level?"
Su Changqing pondered for a moment before asking, "What array are you trying to inscribe?"
"I could help you inscribe a small segment. With a segment of the primordial array as a guide, the rest should be easier to control."
Wu Yong sighed with a wry smile, "If it were that simple, it would be a different story."
If it were that easy, Wu Yong would have done it long ago. However, the Primordial Heavenly Body Array was incredibly complex and profound. Even he, a prodigy in array arts, took two years to just scratch the surface.
Moreover, the most peculiar thing about this array was that it required a force of 'chaos'—Primordial Energy—to be set up in the external world. Without Primordial Energy, the array was useless. His divine body's full development required the inscription of the Primordial Heavenly Body Array within his body to generate Primordial Energy, which would then allow the array to unleash its true power.
Su Changqing knew nothing about array arts, let alone Primordial Energy. How long would it take for him to learn this array? Two years? Five years? Ten years?
"Ah."
Wu Yong was about to refuse but hesitated. Then he thought, "A complete array is out of the question, but a small segment might be possible. With a few months of practice, maybe I can copy it."
With that in mind, Wu Yong took out an ancient book and handed it to Su Changqing. He wasn't worried about Su Changqing stealing the knowledge; it was useless for anyone not specialized in array arts. Besides, if Su Changqing was truly interested, Wu Yong would be happy to teach him. Helping Su Changqing reach the initial stage of divine body development was a favor that rivaled the grace of imparting knowledge.
"Brother, when you have time, take a look. If you can manage it, great; if not, at least it'll be an interesting read."
Wu Yong smiled.
"Hmm?"
Su Changqing looked at the 'Primordial Heavenly Body Array' technique in his hands and was surprised. The cover and the special materials used were strikingly similar to his Heavenly Doctor's Mysterious Scroll.
"Acupuncture? Array arts?"
"Could there be a connection between these two?"
With a hint of doubt, Su Changqing opened the book. Complex and intricate arrays filled the pages, each inscribed with countless array patterns, making them dizzying to look at. Su Changqing's eyes widened in recognition.
The array patterns seemed eerily familiar.
"They are very similar to the arrays used in the Nine Profound Heavenly Doctor's Needles. Although they are simpler, there are many valuable aspects."
Su Changqing focused his mind, comparing the patterns to the Nine Profound Needles he had learned. Insights flashed through his eyes as he delved deeper into the array arts, sparking new inspirations for the Nine Profound Needles.
"Devouring spirits—so that's how it works. Absorbing the primordial energy of heaven and earth to form a cycle within the body, transforming it into one's own essence."
Su Changqing's eyes gleamed with understanding. He brought his fingers together in a sword gesture, channeling his essence energy to inscribe array patterns in the air. In a short while, a small, peculiar array appeared in the void.
Boom!
As the array appeared, the surrounding world trembled violently! Waves of energy, distinctly different from the usual spiritual energy, rushed towards the array!
Su Changqing didn't even glance at it. He frowned slightly, then waved his sleeve to dispel the array. He then lowered his head and continued to read the book, deep in thought.
However, Wu Yong and Old Sun were both stunned. Wu Yong's mouth hung open in disbelief as he looked at the dissipated array, then at the focused Su Changqing. Finally, he turned to Old Sun, bewildered.
"Old Sun!"
"Was that the Primordial Heavenly Body Array?"
