Establishing Arrays

Wang Wei continued on cleansing his soul until it was almost time for the second mental demon tribulation, however, he stopped before he triggered it and went on to check on his disciples,

His spiritual sense extended almost around the entire mountain, he immediately noticed that it extended up to 10 kilometers with his new cleansing and he could see all of his disciples. He quickly sent them a message through his spiritual sense "Report your progress.".

Huang Xue replied out loud "I am ashamed to say that I have had no progress in sensing my soul!" and Shin Chi also replied in a cheerful voice "I am at the peak of the Skin-Strengthening stage of the Body Refinement realm, I feel like I am close to breaking through!".

Hearing what they said Wang Wei immediately controlled the Qi around Shin Chi and caused it to swarm into his body, as soon as he did that Shin Chi felt something strange happen to his muscles.

Shin Chi immediately knew that this was Wang Wei helping him breakthrough so he said "Shin Chi thanks master for assistance!", that Wang Wei just said, "No problem, after all, I am your master".

However, as he had a way to help Huang Xue currently he just said to him "In a few months or so I will leave secluded meditation, and if you are not successful until then I will help you!". When Huang Xue heard that he was immensely happy and he replied "Huang Xue thanks, master!".

What Wang Wei had in mind was in fact to learn different arrays that might help in the Buddhist Cultivation, however, he will have to spend a few months in meditation communicating with the Heavenly Will in order to do so.

But to be able to even understand the complex arrays he first had to understand the absolute basics first.

Since that was the case he didn't delay further as he sank into meditation and asked the Heavenly Will what the basics of arrays even are, because from his father he knew that the ones who could even begin to delve into arrays were in fact Nascent-Soul cultivators that can influence external Qi.

And now from the Heavenly Will's answer he finally knew why that was the case, it was because of how arrays are even made. The way a Nascent-Soul expert creates an array is by influencing the surrounding pure Qi and use it like a laser to inscribe mystical symbols onto a storage medium like the ground or a piece of paper.

However it is impossible to use someone's personal Qi as the array simply wouldn't function, and it was a big question among the many cultivators within the Celestial Wang realm why that is.

Although Wang Wei had an idea as to why that was the case. It was because if those mystical symbols were made with Qi refined by a cultivator, it would be impure and therefore it wouldn't be able to communicate with the Qi of the outside world.

Wang Wei continued on to learn from the Heavenly Will the few basic arrays such as the Qi-Gathering, Water Creating, Warming...

However, all of them were very very basic arrays that only controlled Qi on a very basic level, such as creating Fire Attribute Qi or Water Attribute Qi and Wang Wei wanted to learn some that could help him in his cultivation.

So he asked the Heavenly Will if it could provide him with any arrays that would help him and it provided him with one array that could help him, but the mystical symbols he needed to learn were so complicated that it would take him at least three months to memorize them.

Nonetheless, Wang Wei wasn't discouraged and quickly started trying to comprehend the array that the Heavenly Will provided, its function was in fact to use Qi and transform it into a weird spiritual form that would then enter the soul space of the person within the array.

That weird spiritual energy will then temporarily strengthen the soul of the cultivator within the array, and that would make it much easier to cleanse your soul and even sense it.

The downsides of the array were that it is immensely costly on Qi which means that he would have to mine some spirit stones to power it and it also covers a very small area, barely enough to fit one cultivator.

However Wang Wei had millions of spirit stones in his spatial ring, and that was more than enough to last him for hundreds of years, but in order for the Sect to be self-reliant, he would eventually have to find a spirit mine for it to use.

And so three months passed before Wang Wei finished comprehending the array fully, he got up off his meditation futon and immediately spread out his spirit sense as he started creating some basic arrays around the sect.

With his improved spirit sense of the size of 10 kilometers surrounded the entire mountain peak, he then utilized his control over Qi to start inscribing mystical symbols around the entire peak.

If someone was there they would have been able to see the snow suddenly melting in the shape of weird symbols as he continued inscribing the array.

It took him a couple of hours until the entire array was finished and the entire mountain peak was surrounded with mystical symbols, however, a strange reaction took place as soon as the last symbol was placed.

Immediately some of the pure Qi within the mountain range was transformed into Fire Attribute Qi and the temperature quickly became pleasant instead of the freezing cold it was before, now even mortals would be able to live outside comfortably, and even the snow started quickly melting.

Huang Xue and Shin Chi were astonished to feel this change in temperature but Wang Wei was quick to assure them that it was him and not some Fire Attribute demonic beast.

Once again they were astonished at their master's power and swore to practice even harder than they are doing now.
