Chapter 105 The Array Shows Its Power

After that, he upgraded the training ground as well, consuming twenty sect points. The changes in the training ground weren't dramatic, but the small hill had grown several times larger, and the forty-nine steps had been increased to sixty-four. He valued these steps, as they could train a person's will and body, making it a great auxiliary training location. Next, he spent fifty sect points to enhance the alchemy room, increasing the daily output of top-tier pills from four to sixteen. Then, he spent seven sect points to upgrade the Repository of Techniques twice.

With that done, Li Sheng immersed himself in cultivation, focusing on refining the fourth-tier divine ability seed. Three days passed in peace; with the assistance of top-tier pills and his ancient-level talent, he quickly comprehended ten spiritual forms, just a step away from forming the fourth seed.

Just then, a thunderous roar echoed, shaking the ground as if an earthquake had struck. Fortunately, the buildings within the sect, reinforced from the earlier upgrades, remained intact. In the Spirit Gathering Room, Li Sheng opened his eyes, illuminating the dim space. "Finally here" he muttered, vanishing from his spot.

At this moment, chaos erupted within the sect. Many disciples gathered at the training ground, faces filled with anxiety. A massive monster, thousands of feet tall, was relentlessly pounding against the protective array, emanating terrifying magical pressure that left the disciples shaken. Despite being a fourth-tier Spirit Nourishing realm practitioner, in front of a monster rivaling a grandmaster, they felt like ants.

Bai Ye comforted the disciples and sent a message to Liu Hongfeng using a black spirit stone: "Sister, the sect is in trouble. Come back quickly!" Though unsure if her sister would receive it, she believed it was better than doing nothing.

Meanwhile, Li Sheng appeared in the sky, a tiny, exquisite girl seated on his shoulder. "A despair-level monster. Thankfully" he thought, feeling relieved. The monster, with its grotesque features and towering spikes, stood on two legs, glimmering with sharp silver scales under the light of its fierce red eyes.

"Tuan Tuan, it's your turn!" Li Sheng said softly. "Chirp!" she replied, standing up and waving her small hand as the golden eight trigrams diagram began to spin. A massive hill suddenly appeared in front of the monster, just tall enough to reach its ankles, making it seem inconsequential.

As the giant monster advanced, the hill slowly expanded, while the monster's figure seemed to shrink. Realizing something was wrong, the monster let out a furious roar, black energy gathering at the tips of its massive horns, launching an attack at the small hill. The overwhelming pressure crushed everything outside the array, causing the earth to sink, enveloping the surroundings in a gray mist.

"Tuan Tuan, you're amazing!" the disciples cheered, their spirits lifted as they witnessed her prowess. As the hill expanded to thousands of feet high, the once-mighty monster was reduced to a few hundred feet tall.

"Martial Dao True Meaning... Transformation and Metamorphosis..." Li Sheng observed, noting the monster's scales gleaming as it transformed into a silver light. The monster's horn broke through space, but when it collided with the hill, the energy dissipated silently.

Tuan Tuan waved her hand again, dark energy surged like a tide, engulfing the monster, and in an instant, it was wrapped in a black cocoon, pulled into the hill. The monstrous aura vanished without a trace.

"Chirp!"Tuan Tuan clapped her hands, signaling a job well done. "Is the monster dead?" Li Sheng asked, surprised, as he sensed no life fluctuations from it. "Chirp" she shook her head. "Just suppressed"

Li Sheng wasn't disappointed; given the resilience of the deep-sea race, exterminating it would be difficult. Being able to suppress it was already impressive. He vanished and reappeared by the Spirit Pool, where the giant tortoise had conveyed its need to absorb various minerals from deep within the earth to upgrade.

"How long does it take?" Li Sheng asked curiously. "Hmm…" The tortoise replied softly, "At best, a day; at worst, three" After a moment of contemplation, Li Sheng urged it to hurry. If it could withstand a grandmaster as a juvenile, in its adult phase, it might rival a grandmaster.

The tortoise dived smoothly into the earth, while Li Sheng sighed, looking at the dim sky. According to Tuan Tuan, she could only suppress up to five despair-level monsters at most, and with full effort, maybe double that. Beyond that, it would be too much for her.

"I need to hurry and enhance my strength" With that thought, he returned to the training ground to reassure the disciples. Just as he was about to leave, Bai Ye called out to him. "Brother, I sent a message to Sister for help, but I don't know if she'll receive it."

"Help?" Li Sheng raised an eyebrow. He had considered calling for her but had dismissed the idea given her state. "It's best not to disturb her" he replied, taking out a spirit stone to leave a message: "The crisis has passed, do not worry."

"Okay, as you say," Bai Ye responded thoughtfully. After parting with her, Li Sheng entered the Spirit Gathering Room, contemplating. He had noticed news on the walls of the spirit stone earlier: a day ago, the magic nests had gone haywire, with over ten grandmasters leading hundreds of top-tier masters to clean up the monsters in Lingchuan Prefecture.

"No wonder only one monster attacked; most of them must have been drawn away by those masters. However, with hundreds of despair-level monsters and only a few grandmasters, they'll have to take them down one by one" Shaking his head, Li Sheng began consuming pills and delving into comprehending spiritual forms.
