Chapter 405: Chapter 209: Chen Long and Chou Ox, Each Harboring Ghostly Schemes

"Although my talent is mediocre, after cultivating diligently for a hundred and some years and reaching the level of a Tier Three Array Master, I haven’t made any progress for many years. However, I have gained a slight reputation. The inheritance I possess is of Tier Four, and among them, it’s the most top-notch Inheritance Array!"

As Wei Xu spoke, he carried an inexplicable confidence, clearly having an extremely strong recognition for the array inheritance in his hand.

"May I have a look?"

Zheng Yi naturally couldn’t just believe what others said without seeing it himself.

In the Cultivation Realm, there are some things you must see with your own eyes to be sure.

Wei Xu didn’t hesitate at all to this request and directly took out a Jade Scroll and handed it over.

Wei Xu’s straightforward action made Zheng Yi a bit surprised.

But he still accepted it and quickly scanned it with his Divine Soul Power, swiftly reading the information inside.

A moment later, Zheng Yi opened his eyes and returned the Jade Scroll, a smile appearing on his face.

"Not bad!"

Although Zheng Yi hadn’t seen the real original version and the details inside.

But just from the rough outline and parts of the summary, Zheng Yi could confirm that this item came from a genuine Tier Four Array inheritance.

Just as Wei Xu said, although this Tier Four Array inheritance is just the preface and introduction, Zheng Yi could still see the profound and mysterious array knowledge system it contained.

It’s not only very complete, but also a top-notch inheritance that progresses from entry-level to in-depth mastery and strategic oversight.

"If not for Wei Shuke being diagnosed with an innate Cold Ice Yin Body at birth, which I spent a lot of resources and connections to barely save her life, allowing her to barely live to eighteen, otherwise, this Tier Four Array inheritance would be impossible for me to pass on to others..."

Wei Xu spoke, as if in reminiscence, slowly saying.

He accepted the Jade Scroll Zheng Yi returned, his eyes seeming to be reminiscing.

"Now the Cold Ice Qi in Wei Shuke’s body can hardly be suppressed anymore. She must obtain the Inner Core of the Twelve-winged Celestial Fire Dragon Centipede to completely remove the drawback, even to complement Yin and Yang, and improve her physique, and I have no other demands."

Zheng Yi understood Wei Xu’s choice.

This reason he also accepted, if it’s related to Wei Shuke, Wei Xu using his own Tier Four Array inheritance as a condition to get Zheng Yi’s help makes the entire situation very reasonable.

Everyone has the right to choose, Zheng Yi expressed respect and wouldn’t interfere.

"As long as you swear a Celestial Oath, the preface of this Array inheritance will be given to you, and the remaining part will be handed to you after obtaining the Inner Core of the Twelve-winged Celestial Fire Dragon Centipede!"

"Very fair!"

To this request, Zheng Yi nodded in agreement without hesitation.

A Celestial Oath, also known as a Celestial Dao Oath, is an oath made under the observation of the Heavenly Dao, possessing the power of the Heavenly Dao. Any cultivator daring to break an oath will be troubled by a Heart Demon and punished by the Heavenly Dao, facing Celestial Punishment with no chance of survival when Crossing the Tribulation.

Generally speaking, no cultivator dares to break it easily.

After securing the preface of the Tier Four Array inheritance, Zheng Yi felt somewhat relieved and directly made the oath.

This action also gained Wei Xu’s favor, and subsequently, Wei Xu, with a full smile, explained the upcoming actions to Zheng Yi.

The team heading to Evil Prison Canyon had already been decided beforehand, including Wei Xu, a total of six Purple Mansion cultivators.

Each person’s identity is confidential, all of whom Wei Xu expended a great deal of money to recruit, and only someone like him, an Array Master, could afford to gather so many Purple Mansion cultivators at no cost, merely to set up a Heaven and Earth Net for capturing the Twelve-winged Celestial Fire Dragon Centipede.

Someone like Zheng Yi, without the clear temptation of the Tier Four Array inheritance, would not have accepted such a mission given his status and position.

But now all these individuals have been gathered by Wei Xu and are acting in unity.

Which is enough to show how substantial this Array Master’s resources are.

Indeed, not to be underestimated.

It also further illustrates his regard for Wei Shuke.

Though he didn’t know the backgrounds of the other Purple Mansion cultivators, Wei Xu also mentioned that everyone’s identity is confidential.

But presumably, those invited must be no ordinary figures, renowned in their respective domains.

Originally, the number of people involved was sufficient. After all, with five Purple Mansion cultivators, dealing with a fierce beast, even a Heaven and Earth Exotic Species like the Twelve-winged Celestial Fire Dragon Centipede, unless it was forewarned, should not pose much of a problem.

But Wei Xu valued Zheng Yi’s strength, adhering to the principle of foolproof planning, using the Tier Four Array inheritance as an exchange to bring Zheng Yi into the team.

After all, Zheng Yi had recently become incredibly famous in the Earth Desolate Mountain Realm, obtaining backing from the Taiyin Profound Celestial Sect. This was enough to demonstrate the formidable combat power of this Daluo Alliance Leader.

Wei Xu couldn’t help but be moved, as this person has a record of killing a Purple Mansion Great Perfection existence, capable of providing an additional strong layer of protection for this operation.

Finally, Zheng Yi提出了one requirement, that no matter before or after the mission, Wei Xu cannot reveal his real name.

He would join the team under the guise of Wei Xu’s friend to conceal his identity.

This Wei Xu naturally agreed to, especially since Zheng Yi had set a Celestial Dao Oath.

...

In the following days, Zheng Yi stayed directly at the Wei Mansion, secluding himself to study the preface of the Tier Four Array inheritance he obtained from Wei Xu.

With the array system he had sorted out during this period, obtaining the Tier Four Array inheritance was like adding the finishing touch to a dragon, suddenly enlightening him. Many things he didn’t understand before were now explained.
