Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons

Chapter 260: Chapter 260 Dragonflame Jade Ganoderma_1

It seems that these arrays are set up to guard in different directions.

Shen Yi recognized the Incense Willpower, and it was clear that it could be used.

Lady Qinghua had just stopped Xiang Tianyan and had not been retracted. She glanced sideways at Shen Yi, “Shall Qinghua give it a try?”

Shen Yi pondered for a moment but still refused her offer.

Although Incense Willpower was useful, he was not very confident about whether the Yin God could withstand the fire waves. At most, he would consider it as a last resort.

Moreover, there were other options available now.

With this thought in mind, Shen Yi’s eyes shifted towards the young scholar in the distance.

Everyone else bore signs of burns more or less, but the young scholar alone remained spotless in his snow-white attire, not to mention any injuries.

“Go ahead,” he nodded.

“Ah?” The scholar stepped back in alarm, a bitter expression on his pale little face as he pointed to himself, “Me?”

They had just been eating fruit together, and now they were so heartless.

The rest were also frightened. They knew that this young man had just solved two Primordial Grandmasters without even lifting an eyelid, let alone them, a bunch of small fry.

“You’re to break the Formation,” Shen Yi glanced at him.

“Oh.”

The scholar patted his chest and hurriedly took out another thick book, prodding at the shore while flipping through the pages.

Learning on the spot?

Shen Yi withdrew his gaze speechlessly. It was just as well since he was there to search for a Spiritual Root. The herb lodge looked very much like a place for cultivating heaven-and-earth treasures, so waiting a bit wouldn’t hurt.

He wasn’t as worried as the Xiang siblings.

The reason was simple.

Spiritual Roots were needed in the Primordial Realm, and in the Primordial Realm, he considered himself to be quite strong.

If a Transcendent Cultivator were to come to snatch it away, he wouldn’t mind showing off his Golden Body.

“Senior, then what about us…”

The tall and thin man voiced the thoughts of the many cultivators present.

“Do whatever you want,”

Shen Yi took another bite of the Spirit Fruit.

He had played along with the Xiang siblings only because they had their own set of principles in conducting their affairs.

But as for these people, Shen Yi was not particularly bloodthirsty. With no enmity or grudges, he preferred not to stain his hands with too much blood, which could also affect his mood.

“Thank you, Senior!”

The crowd bowed deeply in gratitude. The scene before them was truly terrifying; right then and there, more than half of the cultivators turned and fled.@@novelbin@@

The remainder quietly retreated to a distance, not seeking to partake in the opportunity but also unwilling to leave.

In a lawless place like a cave abode, any power or background was worthless.

Being able to follow a Primordial Grandmaster who seemed somewhat normal increased their chances of leaving the cave abode alive significantly.

“Say, it’s actually quite useful,” Shen Yi muttered to himself, chewing on the fruit flesh and glancing at the cold light flowing over his fingertips.

He had not activated the Cold Jade Xuan Silk Hand just now.

But striking the Primordial Grandmaster’s Precious Sword with a single punch didn’t even break his skin, all thanks to the inherent protection of this Precious Tool.

Thinking so, he walked towards the young scholar.

“What’s your surname?”

“No need to be formal. My surname is Xu. Just call me A’Qing,” the scholar quickly stood up, dusting off his clothes and bowing politely to Shen Yi.

“No worries, carry on with your work,” Shen Yi waved his hand casually and said nonchalantly, “I’m bored, can I borrow a few books to read?”

“Uh…” A’Qing paused for a moment but proceeded to pull out a copy of “Initial Solutions to Array Formations”.

“This is all I have on me. If the Grandmaster is just killing time, this book is the most suitable,” he said.

Shen Yi took the book and casually flipped through it, “Do you have anything else?”

“Actually, this is rather difficult. It can’t be learned well in less than ten days to half a month,”

A’Qing scratched his head but still took out four or five more books, “Oh right, you’re just passing the time, haha.”

“But I can’t show you this book.”

Clutching the thickest of the ancient texts, he shyly shook his head.

“It’s all right,” Shen Yi nodded gently.

He still remembered that he had previously acquired two Primordial Martial Arts texts about Arrays from the Martial Temple.

It was good to start with the basics anyway.

As for the book the other person was holding… there was no rush; he would take it slow.

At the moment, there was no demon lifespan.

“You go ahead with your work,” Shen Yi said as he casually found a stone to sit on and slowly began to read through ‘Initial Solutions to Array Formations.’

About six days passed.

Finally, A’Qing had drawn the complete structure of the large array in his booklet.

Shen Yi had also succeeded in memorizing the entire ‘Initial Solutions to Array Formations.’

If he could understand it, it would probably be quite interesting.

After recording all five Array books into the panel, he walked over to A’Qing to return the books, “How’s it going?”

“It should be almost done.”

A’Qing looked at the sky and then led Shen Yi to a place that seemed ordinary.

“Just wait for the time it takes to burn an incense stick.”

He put away his booklet and smiled, “Grandmaster, how did you find the reading? Is there anything you didn’t understand?”

“It’s fine; we’ll talk about it later.”

Shen Yi skirted around the topic, and A’Qing tactfully did not pursue it further, since not everyone was interested in Arrays.

He quietly counted the time, then suddenly said, “It’s time.”

As soon as he spoke, to Shen Yi’s slightly astonished gaze, the man did not hesitate at all and leaped straight towards the fiery waves!

Then Shen Yi grabbed him back, “What are you doing?”

“I… was crossing over,” A’Qing, who was already not tall, looked somewhat foolish as Shen Yi held him by his slender figure, “We’re running out of time.”

“…”

Shen Yi fell silent for a moment, then tried to take a step forward.

Sure enough, not only did the fire dragon show no reaction, but his aura didn’t stagnate in the slightest either.

He leaped directly over a distance of thirty feet and successfully arrived at the herb hut on the opposite bank.

“No array is perfect; there are always flaws. As long as you catch the right time and place, it’s as good as nothing. Actually, it’s very simple.”

A’Qing was dropped to the ground and stood up, dusting off his clothes.

Clearly, he was very confident in his knowledge of Arrays; otherwise, he wouldn’t have leaped out just now.

“Hmm.”

Shen Yi, not quite understanding, responded noncommittally.

The connection to his inner qi became increasingly tight.

He strolled into the herb hut, pushed open the door, and instead of any furnishings, was met with a pitch-black cave.

The scorching air caused Shen Yi to frown subconsciously.

A’Qing coughed vigorously a few times, excitedly said, “I’ve got it! It’s a Dragonflame Jade Ganoderma! This is for those with a Mid-grade Spirit Root.”

He pointed to the deepest part of the cave.

There, on a stone platform, lay a fist-sized ball of fiery red flesh.

It had something resembling tendons pulsating on its surface.

A red, plasma-like fluid spread from it, trickling down and flowing into a narrow channel along the platform.

“What a marvelous Array, using the ganoderma to guard itself; the fire river outside originates from inside it.”

A’Qing hurriedly began to record on his paper.

Just as he looked up, he saw Shen Yi walk over, pluck the Dragonflame Jade Ganoderma with a snap, and store it in his Storage Treasure.

His mouth slightly agape, he uttered, “Ah…”
