Seeing the faint glimmer of autumn water in her eyes, Qin Luo smiled gently and said:
"Miss Liyue, please don't refuse anymore. We've been traveling together, so why be so particular?"
"Moreover, I've benefited a lot from Miss Liyue these past two days. With your help, I've upgraded this mark from level one to level three."
After speaking, he raised his arm, and the blue light emanating from the level three mark shone in front of Murong Liyue's eyes.
"But how can this compare to those demonic beasts? These are among the top 100 demonic beasts on the list of all beasts..."
Murong Liyue still felt somewhat indebted. How could the preciousness of the Spirit Illusion Butterfly be compared to that of those low-class demonic beasts?
Seeing this, Qin Luo stepped forward, placed his hand on her shoulder, and said gently:
"Please don't feel guilty, Miss Liyue. Since you've encountered this Phantom Butterfly, it's your destiny. There's no need for us to be bound by such formalities. Besides, if you can form a contract with this Phantom Butterfly and greatly increase your strength, it will be a tremendous help to us in this assessment."
Feeling the warmth from Qin Luo's hand, Murong Liyue's unease eased slightly. Looking into Qin Luo's clear and sincere eyes, she nodded gently, her cheeks flushing red again.
Qin Luo withdrew her hand, relieved. Thankfully, she wasn't as stubborn as Xia Zihan, otherwise it would have taken a lot more effort.
"As far as I know, the biggest fear when making a contract with a monster is being disturbed."
"I will stand guard outside the door for Miss Liyue. You can try it without worry."
After saying that, Qin Luo walked towards the door without the slightest hesitation, showing no longing for the ethereal butterfly in the hall.
Just as Qin Luo was about to step out of the main hall, a soft call came from behind him.
"Young Master Qin."
Qin Luo stopped and slowly turned around. He saw Murong Liyue with a shy expression, her head down, her hands tightly gripping the hem of her clothes, seemingly struggling with something.
After a moment, she raised her head slightly, her gaze flickering with a complex expression that seemed to be a mixture of shyness, gratitude, and a hint of emotion that even she herself did not notice.
"Th...thank you."
Her tone was full of shyness and unease, as if saying those words had taken all her courage.
Qin Luo was slightly taken aback, then revealed a gentle smile:
"Miss Liyue, no need to be so polite." After saying that, he turned around again and quickly walked out of the main hall, leaving Murong Liyue, her face flushed, staring blankly at his tall and straight back.
It wasn't until Qin Luo had been gone for quite some time that she came to her senses, shyly patting her cheeks and inwardly annoyed:
"What's wrong with me? Why do I feel dizzy?"
As he muttered to himself, he shook his slightly dizzy head, trying to clear his head.
However, Qin Luo's image lingered in her mind. His upright posture, gentle smile, and unwavering generosity stirred ripples in her heart...
After Qin Luo and his companion entered the bronze gate, at the very top of the towering pillar of Lingxiao Plain, the old man suddenly opened his eyes, a look of surprise flashing in them, as if he could not believe the fact he had sensed.
"That shouldn't be the case. With their level of cultivation, how could they possibly have enough spiritual energy to open this door?"
"How could this be? Could it be that the bronze door has developed a problem because it hasn't been used for so long?"
The old man frowned, his muttering voice echoing through the clouds.
"Sigh~ Well, it's open now. It's just a ethereal butterfly."
"But this is a bit troublesome. I'll have to think of a new reward to motivate these kids to fight..."
Standing outside the bronze gate, Qin Luo grinned as he gazed at the wide entrance.
His decisive withdrawal was clearly part of his plan. He knew how difficult it was to tame the Spirit Butterfly in the simulation, and without the help of the 'Star Dream Orchid,' it would definitely not be possible to complete it in a short time.
He chose to withdraw at this time for two reasons. First, he wanted to make Murong Liyue aware of the difficulty of signing a contract with the Spirit Illusion Butterfly. Second, he wanted to use this method to increase Murong Liyue's favorability towards him and thus increase her affection for him.
And finally, the real highlight begins.
"Judging by the time, it should be soon."
Qin Luo gazed at the distant horizon and spoke indifferently.
"But we still have some time before that, so let's try out the formation."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Luo waved his sleeve, and the array diagram of the Demon-Sealing Forest Formation appeared before his eyes.
For spirit arrays, the importance of the array diagram is self-evident. The array diagram is like the soul of the spirit array, carrying its structure and flow, and serving as a key guide for the spirit seal. Without the array diagram, a spirit array master is like a ship without a rudder, unable to efficiently set up a powerful spirit array.
Once the spirit array is successfully set up for the first time, the array diagram will disappear, and then it will depend on how much the array master can comprehend from it.
However, this did not have much effect on Qin Luo, as the effect of his Radiant Spirit Summoning Technique was just enough to completely offset the flaws in the array.
Once successfully set up, it can be permanently imprinted in his spiritual seal.
With this in mind, Qin Luo no longer hesitated and activated the Demon-Sealing Forest Formation. Instantly, complex lines and mysterious patterns appeared beneath his feet.
Seeing this, Qin Luo's lips twitched slightly. He had thought he was fully prepared for the complexity of this array. After all, he was a beginner in array setting, and the difficulty of this level three spirit array was no joke.
But Qin Luo had no choice. He only had these three array diagrams left. He couldn't very well go and learn the level 5 array diagram directly, could he?
But when he actually saw these maze-like lines and patterns spread out before his eyes, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
"Sigh, let's take it slow!"
After a sigh, Qin Luo held fast to his original intention, and the crystal-clear spiritual energy in his dantian surged, instantly covering his eyes with a faint silver glow.
After successfully cultivating the first chapter of the Radiant Array Codex, one can use the Glazed Spiritual Energy to cover the eyes, thereby illuminating the spiritual array.
It allows for a clearer view of the flow of spiritual energy within the spirit array, enabling rapid analysis of the array's structure and weaknesses.
After activating Radiant Vision, the spirit array in Qin Luo's eyes underwent significant changes.
Those originally intricate lines and patterns are clearly revealed under the silvery light.
Qin Luo observed intently, not missing a single detail. He silently watched the spiritual energy flow and converge within the array, forming mysterious nodes. These nodes were the key to the inscription of the spiritual seals, determining the power and structure of the spiritual array.
Just as Qin Luo was practicing setting up the formation, dozens of figures sped towards him like lightning from the distant horizon.
The two figures at the front were particularly eye-catching, one of whom was Lin Yang, who had been entangled with them on the stone platform earlier.
