"Don't use this jade pendant carelessly. It can be considered as your trump card. It can save your life if you encounter danger." The white-haired old man said.
Fang Chen had once asked the white-haired old man for his name, but the old man did not tell Fang Chen. He said that Fang Chen would know in the future.
"Array Grandmaster."
Fang Chen's heart was filled with shock. To think that his master was an Array Grandmaster! That was way too amazing!
In the following time, Fang Chen wholeheartedly followed the white-haired old man to learn about arrays.
Ever since the white-haired old man arrived, the Mountain Lord of the Spiritual Array Mountain specially issued an order. That was, all the disciples were not to go near the courtyard, and they were not to disturb the warriors in the courtyard.
This order puzzled many of the disciples. Some of them even raised their doubts, but they did not get an answer.
Of course, there were also some disciples who were observing. What kind of warriors lived in this courtyard? Why did the Mountain Lord value them so much?
Despite the chaos in the outside world, Fang Chen quietly studied the Dao of Array Formations.
After a month, Fang Chen was able to easily arrange a Superior Grade Mortal Level Array. This made the white-haired old man very happy. Fang Chen's talent in arrays was much stronger than his talent in martial arts.
"Not bad. Now that you can arrange a Superior Grade Mortal Level Array, it won't be long before you can arrange an Origin Grade Array." The white-haired old man nodded in satisfaction.
Because of the white-haired old man's guidance and his understanding of arrays, Fang Chen learned very quickly. Some arrays were often strange and could be arranged with a different method. Even the white-haired old man could not help but praise Fang Chen.
Just like this, half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
In half a year, Fang Chen did not take a step out of the Spiritual Array Mountain. He had been learning arrays from the white-haired old man. In this half a year, he had also gained a lot.
While learning arrays, his cultivation had also broken through to the peak of the Third Level of the Condensing Reality Realm. Moreover, his state of mind had also improved greatly.
As for Array Formations, Fang Chen could already easily set up a Supreme-Grade Origin Array Formation. Compared to a Flame Grandmaster, there was not much of a difference.
The current Fang Chen was already a true Array Grandmaster. Furthermore, the supreme-grade Origin Rank Array Formations that Fang Chen had set up were comparable to Spirit Rank Array Formations.
"Fang Chen, your potential is much greater than I imagined. I'm very satisfied with the past half year." The white-haired elder said with satisfaction when he saw Fang Chen set up a formation.
"It was all taught by Master," Fang Chen said with a smile.
Although he hadn't fought anyone in the past six months, he felt that his strength had increased a lot.
"Fang Chen, you'll have to walk the rest of the path on your own. I have some matters to attend to, so I have to leave.
Originally, I wanted to bring you with me. However, after thinking about it carefully, experts are forged through the tempering of life and death. Thus, I will not bring you with me, "said the white-haired old man.
"Master, will we meet again?" Fang Chen asked.
"We definitely will," said the white-haired old man.
The white-haired old man left, leaving Fang Chen alone.
This was the first time Fang Chen had left the courtyard in the past six months.
He had only just left the courtyard when he was discovered by the disciples of Spirit Array Mountain. Many disciples instantly gathered here.
"Brat, you're the one who lived here and didn't let us approach," directly questioned a disciple when he saw Fang Chen.
"That's right," said Fang Chen.
"Brat, you're quite capable. You actually have such special privileges in my Spirit Array Mountain. I just don't know if your strength matches your special privileges," sneered the burly disciple.
"Won't you know if you try?" said Fang Chen.
"You're courting death!"
Snorted the disciple. With a wave of his hand, a formation was set up, and Fang Chen was caught within it.
"You still want to escape after being caught in my formation?"
Seeing Fang Chen fall into his formation, the burly man sneered and prepared to attack Fang Chen.
However, the formation he had set up suddenly shattered, and Fang Chen appeared in front of him.
"This kind of trashy formation?" Fang Chen smiled indifferently.
The formation the burly man had set up was a Yuan Tier formation. However, it was the lowest level of Yuan Tier formation. In Fang Chen's eyes, it was indeed a trashy formation.
Furthermore, the Yuan Tier formation the burly man had set up had several loopholes. Fang Chen took advantage of the loopholes and instantly broke the formation.
Seeing this, the burly man's expression changed. He angrily roared, "Without this formation, I'll still defeat you!"
Bang!
Following the burly man's roar, a loud sound suddenly rang out. Everyone looked over and saw that Fang Chen was quietly standing in his original spot, not moving at all.
As for the burly man's body, he was sent flying. He fell to the ground, causing the floor to crack.
"Heavens! He defeated Wang Ling with one strike! That's too powerful!"
In an instant, the news of Fang Chen defeating Wang Ling spread throughout the entire Spiritual Array Mountain. Many powerful disciples were in the process of rushing over.
Fang Chen did not leave. He wanted to test the results of his half a year of hard work.
Soon, the top ten disciples of the younger generation of the Spiritual Array Mountain had all arrived. They glared at Fang Chen like a tiger eyeing its prey.
"Kid, you dare to cause trouble in the Spiritual Array Mountain?" A disciple questioned in a deep voice.
Fang Chen looked around at the crowd. The Spiritual Array Mountain was comparable to the Barren Sect in the Water Leaning City. The top ten disciples of the Spiritual Array Mountain were equivalent to the core disciples of the Barren Sect.
If it was before, Fang Chen would naturally not be their opponent. However, with his current strength combined with the formation, he was not even afraid of a Sixth Stage Condensing Reality Realm martial artist.
"It seems like he was the one who came looking for trouble with me first." Fang Chen said.
"Senior Brother Wu, he's too arrogant. He doesn't put us, the disciples of the Spiritual Array Mountain, in his eyes. You have to help us." A disciple shouted.
Wu Ling's face was gloomy. As one of the top ten disciples of the Spiritual Array Mountain, he naturally had to take action when a disciple of the Sect was hurt.
Moreover, for the past half a year, the Mountain Master of the Spiritual Array Mountain had ordered that no one was allowed to go near the courtyard. This caused many disciples to be dissatisfied. Now that Fang Chen had come out, they naturally had to make things difficult for him.
At this moment, in a hidden place, the Mountain Master of the Spiritual Array Mountain was watching everything.
"It seems like that almighty person did not appear. Let's just leave the duel between the younger generation to them." The Mountain Master of the Spiritual Array Mountain said with a smile.
At this moment, Fang Chen and Wu Ling had already started their battle.
Wu Ling and Fang Chen set up a formation at the same time. Although Fang Chen's formation was a top grade Yuan Level Formation, its power was comparable to a Spirit Level Formation. Wu Ling's formation was clearly weaker than Fang Chen's.
Crack!
Wu Ling's formation was the first to break. It immediately shattered, and Wu Ling was trapped in Fang Chen's formation.
"Damn it!"
Wu Ling roared. Immediately, a wild aura burst out from his body. He wanted to block Fang Chen's attack.
The third level of the Phantom Sword Art.
In the past half a year, Fang Chen had trained the Phantom Sword Art to the third level. Coupled with his peak 3rd Condensing Reality Realm cultivation, even if Wu Ling was an early 6th Condensing Reality Realm warrior, Fang Chen was not afraid at all.
Swoosh!
The Phantom Sword Art created countless illusory swords. These illusory swords were extremely powerful. When they hit Wu Ling's body, Wu Ling instantly lost his ability to fight.
Bang!
Wu Ling's body fell to the ground and he fainted.
"Senior Brother Wu Ling!" Many disciples hurriedly helped Wu Ling up and shouted.
Seeing Wu Ling fall into a coma, the top ten disciples finally started to take Fang Chen seriously.
"Being able to defeat Wu Ling means that your strength is enough to be ranked first among the younger generation of the Sky Array City." Ding Chuan squinted his eyes and said.
Ding Chuan was the strongest among the younger generation of the Spiritual Array Mountain. His cultivation was at the peak of the 6th Condensing Reality Realm. He was only one step away from the 7th Condensing Reality Realm.
"So what?" Fang Chen said.
"If you can withstand ten moves from me, I won't make it difficult for you." Ding Chuan said.
Fang Chen thought for a moment, then said, "Ten moves?"
"That's too troublesome. How about this, if I can't defeat you in ten moves, then I lose." Fang Chen said.
Hearing Fang Chen's words, the crowd went into an uproar. Countless warriors looked at Fang Chen in shock. They thought that Fang Chen was too arrogant.
"Kid, you are too arrogant. You will regret what you said."
"How dare you talk to our senior apprentice brother Ding Chuan like that. Are you looking for death?"
"Senior apprentice brother Ding Chuan is the strongest among the younger generation of the Sky Array City. No one in the younger generation dares to challenge senior apprentice brother Ding Chuan. How dare you say that you can defeat him in ten moves?"
"Arrogant, too arrogant." Many disciples sneered.
The faces of the top ten disciples changed slightly. There was a hint of displeasure between their brows. Originally, they saw that Fang Chen's strength was not bad and wanted to befriend him. However, Fang Chen actually said that he would defeat Ding Chuan within ten moves.
Even a 7th Condensing Reality Realm warrior wouldn't dare to say that to Ding Chuan.
Ding Chuan sneered and said, "You are stupid. Do you know that?"
"Stupid or not, it's not up to you to decide." Fang Chen said.
His cultivation was at the 3rd Condensing Reality Realm, and his Phantom Sword Art was at the 3rd level. He was invincible among the 6th Condensing Reality Realm warriors.
At this moment, the leader of the Spiritual Array Mountain, who was hiding in the dark, squinted his eyes and laughed. This kid was interesting.
"Is he talking nonsense, or can he really do it?" The leader of the Spiritual Array Mountain said faintly.
Thinking about the mysterious old man behind him, the leader of the Spiritual Array Mountain, he felt that this kid was not talking nonsense. He was even a little curious about whether this kid could defeat Ding Chuan in ten moves.
"If you can really defeat Ding Chuan in ten moves, I will definitely find a way to take you into the Spiritual Array Mountain." The leader of the Spiritual Array Mountain said to himself.
At this moment, the top ten disciples were staring at Fang Chen furiously.
"Kid, you are looking for death. You can't blame others."
"That's right. Only you would dare to say that you can defeat senior apprentice brother Ding Chuan in ten moves."
