Chapter 353 The Ancient Array Formation was Restored
“Eh?”
The one-armed elder stood up and looked at the formation in surprise. His index finger continued to press the switch of the formation key.
“You should try again.”
Bang! Bang! The Heavenly Sword Sect disciple patted the array formation once again but still could not enter.
“What’s going on? The formation key is no longer effective?” The one-armed elder was confused. He could not think straight for a moment.
This array formation was an ancient Demon-Exterminating Defense Array Formation. It had existed for many, many years and had never made a mistake. However, the key was no longer effective at the moment.
This time, the one-armed elder was shocked. The dizziness caused by drinking quickly dissipated. Then, he quickly walked to the array and touched it with his hand. In the end, even he could not get in.
“How is this possible? With the Array Formation Key, one doesn’t need a switch to enter. Why can’t even I enter?”
The one-armed elder was even more confused. His head was buzzing, but at this moment, he suddenly thought of the scene when he was sleeping, and he thought of Li Xuan.
He abruptly turned his head and saw a new Array Formation Key on the stone table. He hurriedly ran over to pick it up and pressed the switch on it.
Whoosh!
The array rippled and white fog filled the air. The array had a reaction.
“It’s done.”
The Heavenly Sword Sect disciple stretched out his hand and realized that it was done. He immediately strode into the library.
However, as he left, he muttered, “He even took the wrong Array Formation Key. I’m really speechless.”
When the one-armed elder heard this, a black line appeared on his forehead. However, he immediately lowered his head and carefully examined the two Array Formation Keys before looking at the names on them.
One of them had his name written on it, and the other was a new array key with a brand new appearance.
The key was that the new Array Formation Key could be used at the moment, but the old Array Formation Key could no longer be used. This made the one-armed old man’s mind even more confused.
He tried again. He walked in at the entrance of the library and walked out again. After testing it more than ten times, he finally confirmed one thing.
His old Array Formation Key could not be used anymore, so he could only use a new one.
“How is this possible? How did that Kid do it? This is an ancient Devil-Exterminating Defense Array Formation, and this kid actually changed the way he enters and exits?!”
The one-armed old man realized the seriousness of the matter and suspected that it was caused by the damaged area of the array formation.
He quickly went to the damaged area of the array and examined it carefully. He found that the damaged area had already been repaired, and looking at the repaired area, he realized that he could not understand it.
One had to know that he was also an Array Formation Master. His understanding of formations was not inferior to that of the elders of the Seven Stars Sect.
However, such a formidable figure like him actually couldn’t understand the repaired formation.
“This… This seems to be repaired with ancient Formation Patterns. Moreover, a Double-Line Engraving Method has been added. However, what’s going on with these return threads? Are they modified? Why can’t I understand it?”
The one-armed old man became more and more confused. The more he looked at it, the more he could not understand it. He was beginning to doubt his life.
He thought of Li Xuan. In the past few days, not many people had come to the library. On the previous day and this day, only Li Xuan had come.
The old man did not care about the twelve-year-old Li Xuan at all. He treated him as a child.
However, this child had actually repaired the ancient array formation, and it was done in a way that he could not understand. This made the one-armed old man doubt his life.
“When did the Seven Stars Sect become so powerful? Even a child is so powerful. Even I can’t understand the array formation that was repaired!”
The one-armed old man wanted to cry. He felt that it was too embarrassing. He had studied array formations for many years. He had become dispirited for the past two years because he had lost his arm.
This was not something that a child could compare to. However, the reality was right before his eyes. The one-armed old man had no choice but to believe everything.
“This won’t do. I have to learn how to repair this. As an Array Formation Master, it’s too embarrassing that I don’t even know this.”
The one-armed old man sat cross-legged and began to comprehend the formation.
Needless to say, with his solid foundation, the one-armed old man had comprehended the usage of a loop Formation Pattern. He felt that he had benefited greatly from it, but he could not understand the rest.
He could only rack his brains to think of the reason, study the array formation diligently, and analyze the various knowledge points within.
The sun was setting in the evening.
The one-armed old man came to the stone table in a daze. He took out a piece of paper and a pen and started drawing. From the loop that he had comprehended, he added it to the Explosion Array Formation that he had researched
At this moment, a black old man walked over from afar. He spoke as he walked.
“Old Man Bai, it’s time to change shifts. You should leave.”
“Wait a moment. I’ll leave after drawing this loop,” the one-armed old man replied without even lifting his head.
“You’re studying your Explosion Array Formation again? Didn’t you already raise it to its limit? Eh?”
The black old man walked to the stone table and took a look. His pupils constricted and he instantly became serious. He carefully looked at the new drawing, and the more he looked, the more serious his expression became.
“What’s with this new loop? This loop is too exquisite. You’re amazing, kid. You actually increased the power of the Explosion Array Formation.”
Old Man Hei was very surprised. He looked at the one-armed old man in disbelief. “How did you do it?”
“Hehehe, you must be envious. I learned it after meditating for a long time,” the one-armed old man said proudly.
“Meditating? What do you mean?” Old Man Hei was puzzled.
“Come with me, I’ll show you something
good.”
The one-armed old man pulled Old Man Hei and quickly walked to the place where the array was repaired. He pointed at it and said, “Look.”
“Isn’t… isn’t this the place where the array was damaged? It was actually repaired. Isn’t this an ancient array formation? The repair is extremely difficult. Even the sect master of the Seven Stars Sect couldn’t do it…”
“Who is so amazing that they actually repaired the ancient formation? Amazing. It was repaired with ancient Formation Patterns.”
Old Man Hei was in disbelief. He looked at the repaired place with a shocked gaze.
“Let’s not bother about who repaired it first. Take a look at the repaired threads first,” the one-armed old man said, keeping him in suspense.
“Okay.”
Old Man Hei nodded seriously and carefully looked at the repaired array formation.
In the end, the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became.
“What’s going on? The array formation was repaired with the Ancient Double-Line Formation Pattern, and something new was added to it. Is this an improvement? These loops are so exquisite. Wait, I can’t understand these loops.”
The black old man rubbed his temples and felt that his brain was a little muddled. It was too complicated, so he couldn’t understand what was going on.
“Hehehe, it’s right that you can’t understand it. This old man spent a long time comprehending before I understood a loop. In the end, this loop increased the power of my Explosion Array Formation. How is it? Amazing, right?”
The one-armed old man said smugly.
“It’s indeed amazing. I can’t understand these loops at the moment, but I feel that after the ancient array formation was repaired, its power has increased a little…”
“These loops and Formation Patterns had somehow strengthened the array formation.”
old Man Bai, tell me honestly, which supreme master repaired the array formation? Could it be the Seven Stars Sect’s Gold Rank grand elder?” The black old man said solemnly.
“No, it’s not the Gold Rank grand elder, but a child, a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy,” The one-armed old man said solemnly.
“A boy? Impossible! Do you think it’s possible that a little boy repaired the ancient array formation?”
Old Man Hei could not believe it, but seeing the one-armed old man so serious, he was a little scared and asked again.
“Is it really a little boy?”.
“It’s absolutely true. This little boy has been reading in the library for the past two days. I saw on his certificate that he’s from the Seven Stars Sect and is also a child, so I didn’t take it seriously…”
“In the end, he actually helped us repair the array formation. When he told me, I was actually still sleeping. Now that I think about it, I’m really ashamed.”
The one-armed old man felt that he had gone a little overboard. He was going to look for Li Xuan in a while to express his gratitude to Li Xuan and ask for his knowledge of the array formation.
