Ren Lao spoke in a low voice in his mental world, but Chen Zhou could clearly hear everything Ren Lao said because Ren Lao was in his own mental space.
Original Truth?
Chen Zhou had never heard of this term before, so he immediately asked Elder Ren, "What is the primordial truth?"
Ren Lao did not rush to answer Chen Zhou, but instead immersed himself in his own thoughts.
"Old Ren?"
Seeing that Elder Ren did not answer him for a long time, Chen Zhou immediately asked again.
Chen Zhou stood there holding the scroll, making no move. He slowly closed his eyes. Yu Junya and Yu Qirui couldn't understand what Chen Zhou was doing, but seeing his closed eyes and the rising true energy around him, they didn't dare to disturb him.
After all, they didn't really understand the affairs of array masters, and they didn't dare to ask too many questions.
This might disturb Chen Zhou, and at this critical moment, we can only rely on Chen Zhou. The future of the Natal tribe's sacred tree is now almost entirely in Chen Zhou's hands.
If Chen Zhou can set up this divine tree protection array, then he will be the savior of the entire Yinatar tribe.
Yu Junya is still wary of Chen Zhou. When Chen Zhou closes his eyes to comprehend the scroll, her hands are always behind her back and never leave.
“Primordial truth can only arise at specific times; it is a truth of nature. Could this scroll be made from the root of that divine tree?” After a while, Elder Ren suddenly said.
Upon hearing Elder Ren's words, Chen Zhou immediately opened his eyes and asked Yu Qirui, "Was this scroll crafted from the roots of the divine tree?"
To Chen Zhou's disappointment, Yu Qirui shook his head and said, "I'm not really sure about that... This scroll is older than me..."
"Does your tribe have any related stories?" Chen Zhou continued to ask.
Yu Qirui shook his head and said, "No..."
"That should be pretty close to the truth. This scroll must have been made from the roots of that divine tree. No wonder it's a spiritual object that only appears once every hundred years," Elder Ren praised.
Chen Zhou had never heard Elder Ren praise anything like this before. Was this scroll really that miraculous?
"A spiritual object?"
“Yes, items that possess spirituality are called spiritual objects. Raw materials that can be forged into soul weapons are all called spiritual objects. Look at that girl’s Secret Glass Spear, it was successfully forged from a spiritual object. This root of the divine tree is indeed worthy of being ranked fifty-seventh on the list of unusual roots, it is actually a spiritual object.”
Ren Lao explained to Chen Zhou.
"Are spiritual objects really that rare?"
"Of course, I can guarantee you that there are no more than ten creatures on the list of unusual roots that are both spiritual objects and unusual roots. This root of the divine tree is an anomaly, probably because it is still too young. It only appears once every hundred years, so it can only be ranked fifty-seventh on the list of unusual roots."
After listening to Elder Ren's words, Chen Zhou immediately and slowly opened the scroll.
What slowly emerged before Chen Zhou's eyes was an extremely complex formation. The lines of this formation intersected and intertwined, making it more complex than any formation Chen Zhou had ever seen before.
Chen Zhou had seen many array diagrams, but this one seemed different, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it. It seemed to be a real array.
Chen Zhou tried to use his true energy to collide with the array on the diagram, and as expected, he was quickly bounced back by the array.
"This is a real formation?!" Chen Zhou exclaimed in shock.
Yu Qirui nodded and said, "Yes. This formation is real, but it has been set up on this scroll. This is the Divine Tree Protection Formation."
Yu Qirui increasingly felt that he hadn't made the wrong choice in selecting Chen Zhou. The fact that Chen Zhou could discover this meant he must be a true array master.
It should be noted that Yu Qirui did not notice this array diagram when he first saw it, thinking it was simply drawn on. It was only later that the old clan chief told him about it.
Chen Zhoucai recognized him immediately upon first glance; he hadn't lied to them—he was indeed a formation master.
"It's truly amazing! Such a powerful formation has been refined and printed on a scroll, and its power has not been diminished; it remains just as formidable!" Chen Zhou exclaimed in admiration.
Just as Chen Zhou was expressing his feelings, Ren Lao also shared his insights.
"So that's how it is! It's because of this powerful protective formation that the spiritual essence of this scroll, as the root of the divine tree, did not disappear! Instead, it has always existed, and because it has always existed, the primordial truth has slowly been born!"
Ren Lao was extremely excited, but Chen Zhou remained completely unmoved, as he himself didn't quite understand what this primordial truth was.
"Hurry up and start learning this formation, and you'll understand. That person wasn't lying to you; if you really learn this formation, you'll skip a level."
Upon hearing what Elder Ren said, Chen Zhou immediately began to take action.
Chen Zhou quickly sat down cross-legged and activated the first level of the True Essence of the Pupil Technique. Stars instantly filled Chen Zhou's eyes. The first step was to search for the array's core.
This study of array diagrams brought Chen Zhou a completely new feeling. This was the first time Chen Zhou had studied arrays in real terms. Previously, he had only copied arrays from books.
This has created a predicament, as Chen Zhou seems to have never found the true core of the formation. He thinks the method should be the same, but he can't find it no matter how hard he tries.
The protective array of the divine tree is far too complex.
This formation is larger than all the formations Chen Zhou has learned so far, and its complexity is also the highest.
Just when Chen Zhou was making no progress, the system notification in his mind suddenly changed.
"Ding! The host has not cultivated for minutes. Reward: Identify the formation once. Identifying the formation can find all the formation eyes and analyze them."
Before Chen Zhou could even feel happy, his Starry Eyes immediately turned blue and quickly scanned the divine tree protective array in his hand.
After scanning, the system issued another notification sound.
"Analysis successful. This formation is the Divine Tree Protection Formation, which has four array eyes and is composed of four smaller arrays. The host can set up the formation one by one in order to truly set up the Divine Tree Protection Formation. Analysis complete."
The system notification sound disappeared again, and a minute later, the system notification returned to its usual once-per-minute pattern.
"Ding! Host has not cultivated for one minute. True Qi value +8! Blood Qi value +10! Root Bone value +10! Spirituality value +2!"
......
With the system's prompt, Chen Zhou immediately knew what to do. No wonder he couldn't understand the formation. It turned out to be a combined formation with four smaller formations. In other words, as long as Chen Zhou set up the four smaller formations one by one, the Divine Tree Protection Formation would be created.
