Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation Chapter 109 – Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Passing Down, The Monkey King's Precious Mother

Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Formation of the Spirit Gathering Array
 

December 22, Winter Solstice.

Fog.

Hu Qi Mountain, mid-mountain villa.

Jiang Ning stood at the edge of the villa's second-floor terrace, overlooking the fog-engulfed forest below.

After Shao Shuangshuang chose the villa, money paved the way, and through a series of operations, the villa was quickly transferred to her name.

For the small city of Yuzhou, a villa worth over ten million was almost the top living space.

Only the top tycoons of Yuzhou could afford to buy them.

To live here was enough to be called “upper class.”

Although the house was in Shao Shuangshuang's name, she never had the intention of possessing it; instead, as soon as the paperwork was complete, she had someone clean the villa, drove to find Jiang Ning, and handed him the keys.

“It's time to set up the array,” Jiang Ning murmured to himself.

The materials for the Spirit Gathering Array were not scarce, just numerous, and with Shao Shuangshuang's help, he had already collected them all.

The seven corners of the array on Hu Qi Mountain had been laid out, just waiting to be activated.

He had waited several months for this moment and had finally finished setting it up.

The commotion from activating the Spirit Gathering Array would probably alarm half of Yuzhou, an unavoidable consequence. All the Spirit Gathering Arrays that Jiang Ning knew of had such an impact.

Because gathering spiritual energy from dozens of miles around was bound to draw attention and lead to investigations, and might even affect future contracts for the woods on Hu Qi Mountain.

Indeed, a better option would be to wait until the contract for the mountain woods came through before setting up the array.

But that would have to wait until the Changqing Liquid Group grew stronger and engaged in negotiations and various procedures with the officials of Yuzhou, which could drag on until next year or the year after.

He couldn't wait that long.

Weighing the pros and cons, since setting up an array would inevitably cause a disturbance anyway,

It was a matter of sooner or later, so he might as well set up the array now and improve his cultivation level sooner.

He had already reached the Qi Cultivation Third Level, and this time with the aid of the great array, he could break through to the Fourth Level in one go.

Jiang Ning did not hesitate any longer.

He raised his hand, released a bead of streaming light, and with a slap, the bead suddenly shattered. Seven streams of light, like bullets, shot out toward the seven locations on Hu Qi Mountain.

Jiang Ning quietly watched as the streams of light went into position, now at the corners of the array.

He tapped his finger again, and a mini array appeared on the terrace floor, its halo constantly revolving.

Jiang Ning stepped forward, stomping on the Array Plate as if to shake the mountains and earth.

In an instant, vast green light columns broke through the clouds over various places on Hu Qi Mountain and shot up into the sky, stirring the wind and clouds.

Miles away, early morning runners stared at the towering green light in the distance, speechless.

The green light columns gathered the spiritual energy from the region surrounding Hu Qi Mountain, and then pulled it all together.

Just as people were astonished, the light columns intersected and merged, the spiritual power gathered again, forming an immensely large green Array Plate.

The Array Plate, vast as a mountain, slowly ground around, its surface etched with countless mysterious symbols.

Such a spectacle alarmed half of Yuzhou, everyone looking up at the immense wheel in the sky, their expressions filled with shock.

Jiang Ning's slender fingers moved, changing shapes, and one magic formation after another flew out until twenty-seven magic formations had been executed. He yelled,

“Open!”

The green light wheel in the sky vibrated, and in a roaring moment, a surging wave of air rushed down, like a wild storm passing through from Hu Qi Mountain to Qingyu Lake, the trees and grass trembling, lake waves rolling.

The rich spiritual energy, carrying wind and clouds, descended on the villa where Jiang Ning was.

Jiang Ning bathed in the sea of clouds, basking in the abundant spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy compressed by the Spirit Gathering Array was almost on par with that of the Cultivation World.

Jiang Ning sat cross-legged amidst the clouds, gathering the spiritual power within his body and making a concerted effort to break through the bottleneck of the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer.

His mana surged, and his Divine Sense expanded to more than one hundred and sixty meters.

He stood up, clenched his fist, and controlled the critical point of the array.

“Hide!”

The vast green disc at the vault of Hu Qi Mountain slowly vanished.

The people of Yuzhou who had been looking up at the sky finally lowered their heads, the shock lingering deep in their hearts.

…

Class 8 QQ group.

Dong Qingfeng posted a picture:

“Don't sleep, there was a big show in the sky just now!”

Guo Kunnan stared at the green giant wheel in the sky in the picture with disbelief,

“You didn't photoshop this, did you?”

“I'm not lying to you, if you don't believe me, ask the classmates in the urban area; the sky really looked like that just now.”

“It's true, I took one too.” Yang Sheng also sent a photo, the angle was different, but it matched the one in Dong Qingyun's picture.

Not only Dong Qingfeng, but Shen Qing'e also added a picture, she had gotten up very early today, just in time to see this scene.

Seeing that two girls from his class supported him, Dong Qingfeng immediately felt elated and proudly said,

“I told you I wasn't lying, the thing in the sky just now really was outrageous, I even thought aliens had come!”

Ma Shicheng joined in, “I saw it too, scared me so much I almost jumped off the building!”

More people in the group added pictures, and the well-informed Chen Qian said,

“That's Hu Qi Mountain, right? It looks like it's near the Huqishan Villa.”

Dong Qingfeng said, “Yeah, it's Hu Qi Mountain, people who live there are wealthy. My dad has a business partner who made it big years ago and moved there, full of capable people.”

“Have you been there?” Dan Kaiquan asked.

“No, the security there is pretty tight,” Dong Qingfeng replied.

“I heard Bai Yuxia lives there,” a classmate mentioned.

The lurking Bai Yuxia came out to debunk, “Where did you hear that? My family can't afford it. My parents would need to be promoted at least one more level for that to be possible.”

Bai Yuxia's family was considered quite good among the class, and hearing even they couldn't afford it, Ma Shicheng boldly declared,

“After graduation, I'll also buy a unit there.”

The statement amused everyone in the class group, and the more mature Chen Qian immediately retorted,

“Your salary really won't be enough.”

“Any unit in Hu Qi Mountain is worth millions, let me calculate for you. After you graduate, if you earn ten thousand a month and don't spend a penny, it'll take you several decades to afford it.”

“Who works after graduation? I'll start a business in college, become an entrepreneur, yes, like some young entrepreneur. When the time comes, I'll hire our classmates in my company, pay you one million a year. On the day I become a big boss, brothers, you'll all live in Huqishan Villas!” Ma Shicheng boasted without shame, his spirit soaring.

Guo Kunnan: “Brother Ma, great brother!”

Wang Longlong: “That's my Brother Ma.”

Dan Kaiquan: “I'll follow you from now on, show us a life of luxury!”

“I'm not bullshitting you guys, I really think I can afford it. There are so many opportunities in society, just grabbing one can make it big. I've seen people get billions in investments, buying a villa by then will be easy,” Ma Shicheng continued to pontificate.

Chen Qian couldn't hold back anymore and, looking at the naive Ma Shicheng, he was speechless,

“What kind of company will you open, and what do you know?”

Ma Shicheng said: “High technology, I'm really good at using smartphones.”

Cui Yu vouched, “I can testify to that.”

“Last time…” Just as Cui Yu was about to reveal how Ma Shicheng taught Miao Zhe how to flash a phone, he suddenly remembered that saying it would give the game away.

At this moment, Hu Jun joined in, “What's the fun in starting a company? Let everyone enjoy this, I just took pictures of weasels stealing chickens today!”

“The scene is very thrilling, you must open the large image to watch!”

[Hu Jun has been muted]

The class group fell silent for a moment and then erupted in cheerful comments.

“The class leader is awesome!”

“Class leader is mighty, he finally muted him!”

“Hahaha, serves him right! Today I'll buy two bowls of soy milk, drink one, pour one out!”

Even some girls who rarely spoke up, joined the conversation.

Many were already annoyed with Hu Jun, so seeing the class leader take action today was a delight.

Huang Zhongfei messaged Hu Jun in private, “Next time you post a picture, you have to show me first. I'll decide whether or not it can be posted.”

Hu Jun was stunned.

…

Jiang Ning took out his phone and saw that Xue Yuantong had sent him a picture.

The picture was the same green giant wheel above Hu Qi Mountain, but it wasn't very clear due to the distance and Xue Yuantong's low phone resolution.

“Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning, look quickly, look at what I took!”

Jiang Ning commented, “It's not as beautiful as the rainbow you sent last time.”

He still remembered the weekend day when he had gone to his uncle's house, it started raining, and after the rain, a rainbow appeared in the sky, which Xue Yuantong managed to capture and send to him immediately.

Two days later, Xue Yuantong bought a lot of flour ingredients, made rainbow cookies at home, and Jiang Ning had the fortune to eat two, and they were pretty good.

“I also think it doesn't look as good as a rainbow,” Xue Yuantong swallowed, reminiscing about the rainbow cookies.
