"Honey, what are you daydreaming about? Take it."

Xiao Xuan touched his wife's waist.

Yaoyue realized what was happening and nodded repeatedly, "Oh, oh, oh."

"Thank you, Master."

"Haha, don't be so polite."

Qin Shou patted his belly and laughed loudly, "Master didn't have much in his life except for being good-looking and having the most money, so if you need anything, just ask Master."

At this moment, Xiao Xuan, holding Yao Yue's jade-like hand, smiled as he looked at Qin Shou, but in his heart, he transmitted a message to Yao Yue beside him: "Wife, my master still has Enlightenment Wine. Just ask him for it, and he will definitely give it to you."

A ripple of emotion stirred in Qin Shou's heart. He looked at Xiao Xuan, his eyes narrowing, and with a smile, he transmitted a message to Xiao Xuan's mind: "Traitorous disciple, do you want to die?!"

"Well........."

Xiao Xuan's lips parted in a smile, then closed slightly, as he echoed Qin Shou, "I'm sorry, Master, I forgot for a moment that you are a Void Realm expert."

"snort. "

Qin Shou snorted inwardly, but outwardly he happily presented Yaoyue with a jar of Enlightenment Wine.

After all, she was his first apprentice's wife.

"Thank you, Master."

Yaoyue accepted the Enlightenment Wine. Today, she felt as if she had been struck by a star, and she was floating on air with happiness.

My husband's teacher is very kind.

"Oh, right, Master, this is lotus seed and osmanthus soup that Yue'er made for you herself."

Xiao Xuan then presented a bowl of porridge, which was fragrant with lotus seeds and osmanthus blossoms.

"Master, this osmanthus flower was picked from a ten-thousand-year-old osmanthus tree. As for the lotus seeds, hehe, they are a lotus seed that Little Fatty picked from a pond on the mountain years ago, a seed that helped him achieve enlightenment. I scraped some powder off and mixed it with some other lotus seeds. It can increase vitality and beautify the skin."

"That chubby kid, give him another beating when we get back."

Qin Shou chuckled, took the lotus seed and osmanthus soup, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, my dear apprentice wife."

"If you like it, Master, I will make it for you every day from now on."

With bright, beautiful eyes and a radiant smile, she invited the moon to shine.

Qin Shou responded, indicating that there was no need for such trouble, and said that he would stay upstairs for the next few years, and that he could come and ask him for guidance if there were any problems with his cultivation.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, I watched my apprentice and his wife leave.

On the Ascending Immortal Tower.

Qin Shou sat on the cloud platform under the peach tree, flipping through the mountain of array books piled up beside him.

A formation can be made into a whole by using spirit stones, formation eyes, and spiritual energy. In addition, some special formation arrangements require special materials to assist in their arrangement.

Normally speaking, the path of formations is extremely difficult, especially the more profound the formation, the more obscure and difficult to understand, and the more mysterious and difficult to comprehend.

But as Qin Shou looked through some basic formation knowledge, he felt that he understood it in one go, it was so easy!

For Qin Shou, who was a powerful being at the Void Realm, his brain was like a miniature universe. Analyzing these basic formations was as easy as a college student writing 1+1.

"Let's try this level of spirit-gathering array first."

Qin Shou took out a few spirit stones, outlined several vortexes as array eyes, and then began to build a small array. After half an incense stick's time, it was successful. A small array appeared all around, covering the entire peach tree and Qin Shou under the tree.

Qin Shou sensed something; this level-one spirit-gathering array could probably condense spiritual energy at a concentration five times greater than that of the outside world.

"This feels great!"

Qin Shou found the formations interesting for the first time, so he immediately started looking at many other interesting little formations.

Dust-repelling array: Removes dust and eliminates the hassle of cleaning.

"Damn, this is so useless."

The water-dividing formation allows one to submerge underwater, serving as a means of repelling water.

"I remember Xiao Qing'er, she had a Water Spirit Pearl, didn't she?"

........

After reviewing some low-level formations, Qin Shou then began to briefly examine some high-level formations.

Five Elements Defense Formation: The power of the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth) is combined and complemented by the principle of balance to increase the defensive strength of the formation.

"Wow, this is pretty good."

Qin Shou examined it carefully, his brows furrowed in deep thought.

"I myself possess the power of the five elements. If this formation were modified, with myself as the core, I wonder if I could summon it at any time to defend myself?"

"Maybe I can give it a try; I have plenty of time anyway."

Once Qin Shou made up his mind, he began to work. However, he had to start by learning low-level formations such as level one and level two before moving on to high-level formations, and then analyze, improve, and experiment with them.

In the time that followed, Qin Shou devoted himself entirely to learning formations.

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye. Qin Shou has become a level 5 array master and can construct arrays that can withstand attacks comparable to those of the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, a level six formation is a bit difficult, but for Qin Beast with maxed-out comprehension, it's a piece of cake.

Sure enough, another six months passed, and Qin Shou had already reached the level of a sixth-level Xuan Array Master.

The levels of array formation are: Levels 1-5 are Spirit Array Masters, Level 6 is Profound Array Masters, Level 7 is Earth Array Masters, Level 8 is Heaven Array Masters...

"Disciple, I have mastered the art of array formation. Now, gather the materials needed to set up the array, and I will begin setting up the city-protecting array for you."

On this day, Xiao Xuan was holding his monthly morning court session when he suddenly heard Qin Shou's voice and immediately stood up in surprise.

"That's it!"

"Holy crap! As expected of my master, he's awesome!"

At this moment, Xiao Xuan's excitement was palpable.

"Your Majesty, has something joyous happened that makes you so happy?"

"Yes, yes, but the Emperor and Empress are pregnant!"

"Hahaha, doesn't that mean my Vermilion Bird Dynasty has an heir!"

Upon seeing this, His Highness's ministers all inquired about the matter.

Xiao Xuan rolled his eyes at them, ignored them, and said "Dismiss the court," before disappearing from the main hall.

Upon arriving at the Ascension Tower, Xiao Xuanfu immediately inquired whether he was truly confident.

Qin Shou immediately gave him a large bag.

"Damn it, are you doubting your master?"

"Hehe, your disciple wouldn't dare."

Xiao Xuan immediately sent someone to the national treasury to retrieve the materials needed to set up the level six magic array.

A level six magic array can withstand attacks from those at the Void Realm, so the materials required are extremely precious and hard to find. However, for the incredibly wealthy Vermilion Bird Dynasty, it's a piece of cake.

Since Qin Shou killed all the enemies a year ago and Xiao Xuan successfully underwent Nirvana, the thing Xiao Xuan did most in the past year was to send people to those forces to extort and collect protection money without regard for their own lives. Even those who watched the battle from the outside were robbed with the absurd reason, "Why did you watch the battle but not attack me?"

Among them were many stubborn forces, and Xiao Xuan personally went to reason with them, eventually forcing them to "willingly" hand over 90% of their family property and sign a contract to sell their clan. Depending on the severity of the situation, they would have to work for him for free for one hundred to ten thousand years.

Faced with the choice between sacrificing themselves and living a life of ignominy, they resolutely chose the latter. However, some of them were stubborn, and Xiao Xuan didn't waste his brains, sending them directly to meet their ancestors so that their families could be reunited.

After the materials needed to set up the formation were obtained, Qin Shou began to set up the formation around the imperial city.

Xiao Xuan followed him, ready to be summoned at any time.

Three days later.

After the flashing array disappeared again.

Qin Shou squatted in a corner and began to ponder.

"Master, are you sure you can handle this? Materials for a level six formation are hard to find, and I've only prepared two sets so far."

Xiao Xuan also squatted to the side, his face full of bitterness.

"Quiet down, let me think about it."

"Master, I think it's possible that when you were setting up the third array eye, you omitted a few pieces of Flame Core Light Iron, but when you were inscribing the array patterns, you added more than a dozen fire attribute array patterns."

"I don't care what you think, I care what I think."

"Oh, Master, you must listen to my advice..."

Snap!

Qin Shou jumped up and slapped Xiao Xuan several times, muttering under his breath:

"Damn it, I told you to shut up, but you kept going! If you hadn't been following me around asking all sorts of questions, how could I have made a mistake? Huh!"

As Qin Shou grew angrier, he broke off a willow branch from the corner of the wall and began whipping Xiao Xuan.

"Ouch~~, Master, I was wrong. I won't bother you anymore. You can continue thinking. I'm going back to sleep with my wife..."

Xiao Xuan skipped and hopped away, yelling loudly.
