Cultivation System: Stronger with Age-Chapter 688 - 298: The Fortune of the Four Great Immortal Sects, The Surprise of the Upper Sect’s Divine Beast_3
Furthermore, although the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array on this Immortal Carriage can isolate prying eyes, the power of the Nine Gates Celestial Eye far exceeds mere clairvoyance. That pervasive red light, capable of attaching to others, is currently Lin Xuankong’s most potent surveillance method...
「A moment later,」
The Cyan-forehead Qilin, seemingly having finished listening to the Immortal Carriage’s master, looked again at the Five Elements Wanderer and the others. It spoke:
"My master is naturally aware of the preciousness of Immortal Artifacts. However, the best main Array Hub for setting up the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array is indeed an Immortal Artifact!
The master has just instructed that it’s best if you three sects of the Western Region—the Five Elements Immortal Sect, the Profound Pure Immortal Sect, and the Shangqing Immortal Sect—can find a way to acquire enough Immortal Artifacts. Only then will the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array possess a sufficiently powerful defensive barrier, ensuring that it can withstand the attacks of a Ninth-Grade Earth Immortal for a long enough time!
If... if it’s truly impossible to gather nine Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts, then each main Array Hub must have at least nine Tier Nine Spiritual Artifacts. Otherwise, the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array cannot even be set up. Then, how can it resist the attacks of those Demon Generals from the Profound Yin Demon Sect?"
Hearing this, the Earth Immortals from the Five Elements Immortal Sect, the Profound Pure Immortal Sect, and the Shangqing Immortal Sect felt somewhat relieved, though their expressions remained bitter.
After all, while Tier Nine Spiritual Artifacts are also extremely precious and challenging to refine, they are much easier to obtain compared to Immortal Artifacts. These three Immortal Sects have existed for tens of thousands of years and are among the Twelve Great Immortal Sects of the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty. Therefore, they still possessed a considerable number of Tier Nine Spiritual Artifacts. If they scoured their entire sects, they could manage to gather sixty to seventy pieces.
However, before the Earth Immortals of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, Profound Pure Immortal Sect, and Shangqing Immortal Sect could breathe a sigh of relief, the Cyan-forehead Qilin spoke again: 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
"My master instructed that although each main Array Hub’s Initial Tier Immortal Artifact can be replaced with nine Tier Nine Spiritual Artifacts, the power of the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array set up in such a manner would be significantly compromised. It would certainly not be able to withstand the attacks of a Ninth-Grade Earth Immortal!
While it might be able to hold off attacks from Seventh and Eighth-Grade Earth Immortals for a while, each Array Hub would need to be manned by an Earth Immortal of at least Fourth Grade, who would constantly need to channel vast amounts of Immortal Yuan. Otherwise, if the Immortal Yuan supply is cut, the defensive and suppressive effects of the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array would immediately vanish!"
Hearing this from the Cyan-forehead Qilin, the Earth Immortals of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, Profound Pure Immortal Sect, and Shangqing Immortal Sect nodded in agreement, albeit somewhat reluctantly.
After all, even though the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array set up in this manner would require many Earth Immortals to operate, it would still be capable of resisting attacks from Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth-Grade Earth Immortals. This was countless times stronger than their sects’ original Sect Protection Arrays.
In the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty, the strongest Sect Protection Array belonged to the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect. Even so, their Sect Protection Array could only withstand attacks from a Sixth-Grade Earth Immortal and unleash attacks of equivalent power.
After coming to this realization, the Earth Immortals of the three sects started to look less downcast. When they glanced at the Earth Immortals of other Immortal Sects, they even showed traces of pride.
At this moment, the Cyan-forehead Qilin spoke:
"The Five Elements Immortal Sect, the Profound Pure Immortal Sect, and the Shangqing Immortal Sect have explained their situation. What about you four: the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, the Beimang Immortal Sect, the Western Nether Immortal Sect, and the West Star Immortal Sect?"
Seeing the Sixth-Grade Spirit Beast from the Luo Water Immortal Sect ask the question, Sect Leader Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Sect Leader Guo of the Beimang Immortal Sect, and the others dared not dally and quickly cupped their hands in response.
Sect Leader Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to the Immortal, although our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect is far inferior to an Upper Sect like the Luo Water Immortal Sect, if the entire sect pools its resources, we can barely manage to gather some Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts. Nine Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts are no problem!"
The three sect leaders of the Beimang Immortal Sect, the Western Nether Immortal Sect, and the West Star Immortal Sect also stated that they could gather nine Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts.
Seeing this, a slightly surprised expression appeared on the Cyan-forehead Qilin’s enormous head. It couldn’t help but turn to look at the White-forehead Qilin beside it. Bai E then said:
"Before leaving our Luo Water Immortal Sect, Qing and I assumed that the Western Region, being remote and with less prevalent Immortal Techniques, would surely struggle to gather enough Immortal Artifacts to set up the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array. To our surprise, your four Immortal Sects can actually gather enough. This is somewhat unexpected!
It seems the rumors we heard while traveling to the Western Region were not entirely false... Nevertheless, it is a great boon that your four Immortal Sects can each gather nine Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts!
This way, the Luo Water Grotto Heaven Array my master helps you set up will possess some of the power of the Immortal Carriage Celestial Cave Array. Once activated, it can easily fend off Eighth-Grade Earth Immortals and even withstand attacks from a Ninth-Grade Earth Immortal for eighty-one days!
Furthermore, with my master overseeing the Western Region, he can rush to any Immortal Sect to provide aid at any time. In this way, even if your four Immortal Sects face an attack from the Demon Lord of the Profound Yin Demon Sect, you will have a chance to resist and hold out until my master arrives!"
At this point, Bai E, whose voice was somewhat gentler, said with some emotion:
"Tens of thousands of years ago, I accompanied an Immortal Sect Elder to the Western Region. At that time, the various Immortal Sects here were impoverished and weak. Now, they have changed significantly! Even some large Immortal Sects in the Central Earth of the Central Divine Dynasty would need to expend some effort to gather nine Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts."
