"As expected, my guess was right. He really did completely understand the entire formation before he started to break it!"
"He completely comprehended the master's Twenty-Seven Limitless Formations in just one hour. Such comprehension, such comprehension..."
"Is this little guy a born master of magic arrays? Otherwise, how could he have such terrifying talent in array formations!"
I witnessed firsthand Lu Qing's methods of breaking the formation and the speed at which he broke through the barrier.
The three ancient wills within the celestial palace were all deeply awestruck.
Even though they have lived for hundreds of thousands of years and have seen a great deal, they have never seen a formation prodigy like Lu Qing.
In just one hour, he fully comprehended the Twenty-Seven Limitless Arrays created by his master, and then easily cracked it in a few dozen breaths.
Even in ancient times, in an era of brilliant stars and outstanding talents, such a thing would be unthinkable.
No one has ever been able to do that.
Even the master's former personal disciples are not allowed.
After the initial shock came a surge of ecstasy.
Because the three ancient wills knew that they had finally found an unparalleled genius qualified to inherit their master's legacy.
In an instant, the entire interior of the Immortal Palace trembled as the three ancient wills were stirred.
"Mingfeng, should I move this little fellow directly from the array passage to the Immortal Palace?" the aged voice asked.
"Let's take another look." The cold voice hesitated for a moment, then shook its head and said, "Although this cultivator's performance is already fully qualified to become the master's personal disciple."
However, the rules for testing the passage were established by the owner himself.
Unless the cultivator undergoing the test cannot persevere or violates the rules, we are not allowed to interfere arbitrarily.
This cultivator at the fourth stage of the Nascent Soul realm is still undergoing trials, so we can't just stop him now.
"Let's keep watching."
“Great, this will also allow us to see where this little guy’s limits are.”
Upon hearing this, the other two wills immediately nodded in agreement.
Although the master has left, the rules he set are still supreme.
Therefore, although they really wanted to immediately summon this Nascent Soul Fourth Tribulation cultivator to the Immortal Palace.
However, the three ancient wills suppressed their impulses and decided to continue to observe.
Perfect timing, we can also take this opportunity to see just how far this little guy can go in the end.
"I actually cleared the level."
In the third level of the space, Su Xingtu stared blankly at the spot where Lu Qing had disappeared.
He didn't know how to describe his current feelings.
Just now, he witnessed Lu Qing easily break through the last few layers of array light barriers at a speed he could hardly imagine.
Finally, enveloped by the beam of light, they broke through and entered the fourth level.
Su Xingtu couldn't imagine how Lu Qing had managed to do it.
Could it be that he had seen this formation before and knew it inside and out?
But how could that be possible?
Everything in the Ruins of Guixu is mysterious and unknown.
Even powerful galactic overlords like the Sky-Breaking Sword Sect and the Netherworld Palace cannot fully understand it.
How could a fifth-stage Nascent Soul cultivator possibly know the formation inside in advance?
If not, then there is only one explanation: that fifth-level Nascent Soul cultivator just now possessed an array formation talent that was countless times more amazing than his.
Thinking of this, and looking at the array light barrier in front of him, which had only broken through three layers, Su Xingtu's eyes were blank.
He didn't even know whether he should continue breaking the formation.
This unparalleled genius of formations, renowned throughout the starry sky, began to doubt his own talent for formations for the first time at this moment.
Lu Qing had no idea that a peerless array genius had almost shattered his Dao heart because of his breaking the array.
Even after reaching the fourth level, he was still surrounded by countless array light screens.
This time, however, he was the only one in the entire space; there were no other cultivators.
Looking at the array of light in front of him, Lu Qing immediately activated his special ability to investigate it.
Soon, a smile appeared on his face.
Just as he had expected, the array space of this fourth level was still consistent with the arrays of the previous three levels.
Therefore, it is almost certain that the subsequent levels will be the same.
Lu Qing did not hesitate and immediately chose to download.
An hour later, as Lu Qing broke through the last light barrier, a pillar of light appeared, and his figure disappeared in the fourth level.
"The fourth level only took one hour..."
The three ancient wills within the celestial palace, witnessing this scene, were speechless.
It should be noted that the formation of the fourth level is several times more profound than the [Twenty-Seven Limitless Formation] of the third level.
This Nascent Soul Stage 4 cultivator actually managed to completely break through it in just one hour.
However, what happened next made the three ancient wills realize that they had underestimated this Nascent Soul Fourth Tribulation cultivator.
In each subsequent level, Lu Qing only spent a maximum of one hour to completely break the formation and quickly pass the level.
It was as if the so-called difficulty of the formation did not exist for him.
No matter how complex the formation, he could fully comprehend it within an hour and then quickly decipher it.
Without the slightest hesitation, they were so relaxed that it didn't feel like they were taking a postgraduate entrance exam, but rather like they were on a leisurely stroll in the countryside.
Before long, he had reached the eighth level.
The celestial palace had fallen into complete silence, with no sound emanating for a long time.
The three ancient wills were only focused on Lu Qing's comprehension, breaking through the formation, and advancing through the barrier.
Everything was as simple and easy as eating and drinking.
Seeing how the array, which its master had painstakingly created, was now being easily broken by a fourth-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, as if popping a bubble.
The three elders in the celestial palace, with their ancient wills, were momentarily at a loss for words, their emotions a complex mix of feelings.
More importantly, they originally estimated that Lu Qing could only make it to the fifth or sixth level at most.
After all, the formations that follow are incredibly powerful, and the principles they contain are extremely profound and obscure.
Even cultivators at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul stage or above might not be able to withstand its terrifying implications.
However, Lu Qing directly passed the eighth level, and they didn't even see him show any signs of difficulty.
Such talent in formations is unheard of, not even in the ancient times when stars shone brightly.
Therefore, the three ancient wills were truly surprised and delighted, and even somewhat bewildered.
"According to the rules set by the master, the eight test channels would converge once in the fifth, seventh and ninth trials."
The cultivators who were to be tested in each of the various channels were then allowed to compete and vie for supremacy.
But judging from the speed at which this little guy is progressing, it seems unlikely that anyone from the other passages will encounter him.
After a long silence, Hong Zhong's voice suddenly rang out.
It glanced at the other light screens and saw that even the fastest cultivators in the other test passages had only just entered the fourth level.
The gap between them and Lu Qing's eighth level was enormous, making it impossible to catch up.
"It's better if we don't run into him. Such a promising talent, if he gets hurt by some other guy, Old Dragon will go ballistic!"
The aged voice then spoke loudly.
His tone made no attempt to hide his protectiveness.
Having observed the journey, it was extremely satisfied with Lu Qing.
In its heart, it had long regarded Lu Qing as its master's most important disciple.
If such a precious seedling were to be injured by those fools from other channels, it wouldn't dare say how furious it would become.
The old dragon's words, though somewhat contrary to the rules set by its master.
But unusually, neither the booming voice nor the cool, clear voice offered any rebuttal.
Because that's what they think too.
After waiting for over 300,000 years, we have finally found such a precious seedling, who is expected to fully inherit his master's array formation skills.
How could they bear to let it get hurt?
If anyone dares to lay a hand on Lu Qing, they will intervene, even at the cost of punishment.
"The eighth level has also been cleared."
After a while, an old voice rang out.
Needless to say, the other two wills also saw that Lu Qing, inside the light screen, was enveloped by the pillar of light and teleported to the ninth level after easily breaking through the formation of the eighth level.
By now, the attention of the three ancient wills was completely focused on Lu Qing.
In the other test channels, even if someone occasionally breaks through, it doesn't attract their attention at all.
"I wonder if he can still break through this ninth level," the aged voice said.
The other two wills also showed expectant expressions in their eyes.
Although Lu Qing's talent in formations was unprecedented, enough to make any formation genius pale in comparison.
However, the ninth level of the formation test passage is also quite unusual.
Its difficulty is more than ten times greater than the previous eight levels combined.
Because the formation of the ninth level is a powerful formation that transcends the realm of the Nascent Soul Realm and contains a trace of the Dao Integration Realm.
If Lu Qing can even break this formation, then his talent in formations will truly be unparalleled and peerless.
If their future achievements proceed as planned, they will undoubtedly reach unimaginable levels.
"Finally, we've reached the ninth level."
In the ninth level of space, Lu Qing appeared, looking at the layered array of light screens around him, feeling somewhat moved.
At the same time, there was also some joy.
Having comprehended the previous eight trials, he had grasped most of the essence of the inheritance within this array test passage.
The insights in my heart are constantly brewing, and will soon condense into a truly profound and mysterious inheritance.
He knew that as long as he could fully comprehend the great formation before him, he would be able to complete the last piece of his understanding and truly obtain the inheritance.
Lu Qing began to observe the last great formation surrounding him.
"As expected, this ninth formation consists of a total of eighty-one array light screens."
Lu Qing was not surprised by this; he had already known this pattern in the earlier levels.
It was the power of this last formation that surprised him.
Even without any attack on him, he could still feel that each light barrier contained terrifying power that made his heart tremble.
He had a hunch that if this great formation were activated, even a single burst of light could obliterate him.
Even his now-mighty and incredibly strong physical body, forged through countless trials, could not withstand it.
"How come the power of this ninth formation seems to be much stronger than the previous eight combined?"
Feeling the power emanating from the light screen, Lu Qing felt a chill run down his spine.
He didn't even dare to probe his primordial spirit power inside.
Otherwise, one's primordial spirit might not be able to withstand that immense power and would suffer severe damage.
"Is this still a Nascent Soul Realm level formation?"
The more he sensed it, the more surprised Lu Qing became.
He even suspected that even a powerful being at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage might not be able to withstand the power of this great formation.
"Fortunately, my method of breaking the formation is different from that of other formation masters."
Lu Qing felt fortunate; otherwise, with his current cultivation level, he would never have been able to get here.
After calming down a bit, Lu Qing activated his special ability and looked at the array light screen in front of him.
Before long, several notes appeared.
"Is the formation for this ninth level called the [Nine-Nine Returning to Origin Formation]?"
Lu Qing looked at the message on the note in his field of vision, nodded slightly, and then selected to download it.
[Downloading, current progress 1%, 2%, 3%... 98%, 99%, 100%.]
[Download complete. Would you like to start the simulation?]
Lu Qing chose simulation.
Soon, when the simulation of his special ability was complete and he was asked whether he wanted to learn it, Lu Qing immediately chose to learn it.
The next moment, he closed his eyes, and countless insights and joys about array formations surged from the depths of his mind.
"He has begun to comprehend it."
Inside the celestial palace, the three ancient wills looked on with even greater anticipation as they saw Lu Qing close his eyes.
Having witnessed Lu Qing navigate so many challenges, they knew that once Lu Qing closed his eyes, it was the time he would devote all his energy to comprehending the formation.
When he opened his eyes again, that was when he began to break the formation.
"I wonder how long he'll need to comprehend this time. Surely it won't be just an hour again?" Hong Zhong's voice said.
But the other two wills did not reply.
Because even they don't know the answer to this question.
And so, under the watchful gaze of the three ancient wills, Lu Qing kept his eyes closed and began to comprehend.
An hour passed, and he did not open his eyes.
Two hours passed, and he was still meditating with his eyes closed.
It wasn't until the third hour had passed that Lu Qing slowly opened his eyes.
In his eyes, it seemed as if countless array runes were flowing, as unfathomable as the vast starry sky.
However, Lu Qing quickly suppressed this strange phenomenon.
"This ninth great formation has indeed surpassed the realm of the Nascent Soul Realm, and even contains a trace of the Dao Integration Realm. No wonder its power is so terrifying."
A realization dawned on Lu Qing's eyes.
At this moment, he had completely comprehended the [Nine-Nine Returning to Origin Formation] before him.
Not only that, he also connected the formations of the previous eight levels with it.
They studied the nine great formations that were of the same lineage together and verified each other's understanding.
It also completed the final piece of the puzzle that he had come to understand.
A complete array formation inheritance also surfaced in his mind. (End of this chapter)
