Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 580 - 338: Mass Carving of Array Plates_2

This object is specifically used for carving Formations; the tip of the carving knife comes with a sharp attribute, and the entire knife has very good conductivity of Spiritual Energy.

Compared to other tools used for carving Formations, it can truly achieve twice the result with half the effort, and the speed can be much faster.

Ye Feng extended a root and coiled it around the Formation Array Carving Knife, then began to carve swiftly.

Ye Feng was no longer a stranger to carving Formations; he had even summarized a set of methods suitable for himself.

Although Ye Feng had not carved a High-order Gathering Spirit Formation before, carving a single Formation node was not difficult.

What’s more, he had strong spiritual power as his support.

Even though half of his soul origin had been severed, and he was far from recovered, the strength of his spiritual power was still far superior to that of an average Peak of the Seventh Order spiritual power strongman.

With strong spiritual power as his support, although Ye Feng sometimes paused during his carving of the Formation, he never made a mistake.

minutes later, he had successfully carved out the first Array Plate.

"Not bad, I can speed up once I get used to it,"

Ye Feng muttered to himself, then immediately started the second carving.

As he expected, this time with the carving of the Array Plate, he no longer stumbled; everything went smoothly, and he reduced the time to 15 minutes.

By the third Array Plate carving, Ye Feng was able to do it as smoothly as flowing clouds and water, and he had again compressed the time, completing an Array Plate carving in just 10 minutes.

"However, even with this speed, it’s still too slow," Ye Feng frowned slightly.

At this pace, he could only carve six Array Plates in an hour, and in 24 hours a day, that would make a total of 144 Array Plates.

To finish carving 1000 Array Plates would take almost seven days.

Not to mention that a thousand Array Plates forming Formation nodes was just to complete one High-order Spiritual Gathering Array.

And he intended to make nine in one go, which would mean nearly 60 days?

That was even less acceptable.

"Then let’s try multitasking," Ye Feng said softly to himself.

In fact, according to the inheritance records, Master Kado of the Heavenly Court, the foremost Array Master, did exactly that.

After all, a complete High-order Spiritual Gathering Array requires a full 10,000 Array Plates, and if a larger coverage area is required, it is necessary to embed and stack Formations, requiring an even more massive number of Array Plates.

Under these circumstances, how long would it take to carve them one by one?

Therefore, among the inheritances he received, there was a little trick called Spiritual Resonance.

The principle is like the resonance of physical objects, directly making the frequency of multiple knives consistent, so when one knife moves, the rest will trace the exact same pattern.

This method is like a multi-spindle machine tool that simultaneously processes multiple components.

And this trick of Spiritual Resonance could control up to 100 carving knives at the same time, which means, producing 100 Array Plates in one go.

Of course, Master Kado, a God-level Strongman, could do this with ease.

But now Ye Feng’s spiritual power had only recovered to the level of the Peak of the Seventh Order, so he couldn’t guarantee that he could achieve it.

Even if he couldn’t control 100 Formation Array Carving Knives, controlling thirty or forty would greatly reduce the production time.

However, even if these Formation Array Carving Knives cost only 50 points each, 100 knives would cost 5000 points, which is not a small amount.

With this in mind, Ye Feng took out the Metal Token and injected a stream of Spiritual Energy into it. He then transmitted his voice into it: "Lord Gu Ao Duo, I’ve encountered some trouble and hope to receive your assistance."

Ye Feng was already quite familiar with Gu Ao Duo’s personality. To ask the other party for a favor, it was necessary to flatter him.

"Speak! What is it this time? I’m putting it out there first, if it’s too difficult, I can’t help," Gu Ao Duo’s voice came from within the Metal Token.

"It’s the creation of a high-order Spiritual Gathering Array; I’ve encountered some trouble," Ye Feng said.

"That shouldn’t be! You were even able to carve the Array Plate used for refining your body. The high-order Gathering Spirit Formation Method is just larger in scale, but the difficulty of crafting a single Array Plate has actually been reduced quite a bit," Lord Gu Ao Duo’s somewhat puzzled voice came from the Metal Token.

"The difficulty indeed isn’t high, but it’s too time-consuming. I plan to set up 9 high-order Spiritual Gathering Arrays, which in total will require 9000 Array Plates. If I were to engrave them one by one, it would take two months, so..."

"Stop, stop, stop!" Gu Ao Duo interrupted directly, "What exactly do you want me to help you with?"

Ye Feng got straight to the point, "Lend me another 99 Formation Array Carving Knives. Rest assured; I’ll return them in a short one to two days, or at most three to four days."

Gu Ao Duo: "..."

Gu Ao Duo was truly speechless. It was a method only Ye Feng could think of. It said, "There has never been such a precedent before..."

"Lord Gu Ao Duo, I know there’s nothing that can be difficult for you," Ye Feng interrupted before the other could finish their speech, promptly showering him with flattery.

As expected, Little Fatty Ball was very receptive to this approach. It stammered, "This loophole isn’t exactly impossible to exploit, it’s just..."

With an excited tone, Ye Feng said, "Many thanks to Lord Gu Ao Duo. I knew that with your abilities, this matter would be a snap for you."

Gu Ao Duo’s words got stuck in his throat, and finally, he choked out, "Fine! You have at most three days. You need to return them on time and without any damage."

Ye Feng naturally assured him, and soon, he got 99 Formation Array Carving Knives for free, saving him a large number of points.

As for saying a few nice words, it didn’t cost him a piece of flesh; the real benefit was getting what he needed.

After getting the array of knives, Ye Feng immediately tried it out.

Spiritual Resonance was just a little trick and couldn’t even be considered a spiritual secret technique; spending just half an hour, Ye Feng learned it.

Once he had learned it, he immediately gave it a try.

It was quite easy for Ye Feng to control 100 Formation Array Carving Knives with spiritual power, but the problem arose when trying to precisely control them without the slightest error, which was difficult.

He directly took out 100 uncarved Array Plates, then the 100 Formation Array Carving Knives all hovered in the same position before he started to use Spiritual Resonance.

Instantly, the main carving knife in the center, following Ye Feng’s manipulation of the knife, began to carve, and the other 99 knives moved in a mirrored fashion, starting to engrave as well.

This time, Ye Feng’s carving of the Array Plates was extremely slow, every stroke and line performed deliberately, so as to prevent any mistakes.

However, when he had only engraved the third pattern line of the Formation, more than 20 knives became slightly delayed in resonance, which deformed that line of the Formation.

Clearly, those 20-plus Formations were already ruined. Ye Feng, without much hesitation, discarded them and continued to control the remaining 80 Formation Array Carving Knives to carve.

As he continued, more knives began to fall behind in frequency, causing more Array Plates to become unusable.

In the end, when Ye Feng, controlling the Main engraving knife, completed the final stroke, only 9 Formation Array Carving Knives were able to synchronize and finish all the actions with the Main knife.

"Not bad, managed to make 10 Array Plates in one go. I hope that as my proficiency increases, the number of Formation Array Carving Knives I can control with Spiritual Resonance will grow," Ye Feng breathed out slowly and then continued to practice.

Once, twice, thrice...

Soon, an hour had passed.

In that hour, Ye Feng tried 5 times, but the number of Formation Array Carving Knives he could really control was only 20.

Moreover, he felt that this was probably his limit, and the likelihood of further increase was not great.

"Indeed, it’s a lack of spiritual power strength," Ye Feng couldn’t help but sigh.

After all, Array Master Kado, the creator of this trick, was a God-level Strongman, and he could only control 100 Formation Array Carving Knives at most.

Now, being able to control 20 knives was already quite impressive.

And with the speed increased by twenty times, the two months could be shortened to 3 days, which was also acceptable.
