991: Chapter 615_2 991: Chapter 615_2 Tang Yanqing, alongside members of her family clan, received the photocopied Secret Manual from Tang Yanran, and then they enthusiastically sought her advice.
Although Tang Yanran was usually quite proud and aloof, she interacted indifferently with her family members, but did not refuse to provide guidance when asked!
The clan elites present had known each other since childhood; they were not exactly friendly, but when outside, one still had to rely on relatives!
Despite her somewhat icy expression, Tang Yanran responded to their questions with patience!
Tang Yanqing, who had previously not been particularly close to this older cousin sister, had no conflicts with her.
They each had their own cultivation, and they were not from the same parents after all.
The resources allocated by the family, if given more to others, would be a cause for envy.
They only aimed to enhance their own abilities in order to garner more resources!
In the clan, they would also choose to undertake tasks that could gain support, for the little bit of resources allocated to them was insufficient for improving their abilities!
Just like now, as they ventured out to face divine tribulations, they also sought to enhance their abilities!
From time to time, Tang Yanqing would notice the gazes of others fixed upon her, but as someone focused on improving her abilities, why would she care?
Tang Yanran even had a heart-to-heart chat with her in secret, asking if she liked the Dugu brothers.
Tang Yanqing thought to herself how unexpected it was for her normally icy cousin to engage in gossip?
“It’s not what others think; I was just seeking advice from the Dugu brothers.
His abilities were quite good among these men before.
Moreover, he has the Glittering Sprite; that Lin Daiyu is so annoying, always coming over to fight and be jealous.
Later on, I just wanted her to know that the guy didn’t like her!”
In Tang Yanran’s opinion, her younger cousin was perhaps not speaking her true feelings, but she didn’t bother with meddling in others’ affairs.
Now was not the time to be concerned with trifles!
The bats under the Formation, in endless flocks, had to number no less than twenty or thirty thousand, she wouldn’t believe otherwise!
These bats had strange heads unlike other bats; the heads of the bats were like those of snakes, a dark and oppressive swarm, as they flew in search of an exit!
Constantly flapping their wings and spewing out Black Mist from their mouths, they intended to attack the Formation to break it!
Their commander, ceaselessly giving orders in the Demon Realm, sought to turn the Eastern Demon Realm upside down!
Before emerging from the Eastern Demon Realm, they wanted to have a share of what the humans had!
The commander aimed to lead both the Eastern Demon Realm and the Eastern Cultivation World.
Blocked for ten thousand years, unable to Ascend, they have remained confined in the sealed Western Demon Realm with ever-diminishing resources!
As these resources dwindled, as they strived for more resources, they realized not only could they not Ascend, but each generation was weaker than the last.
The old bats died and those among the bats who rose to kingship could no longer Transform Shape!
Each type of king had to lead their own group to fight for resources.
Such conflicts have been rampant in their Demon Realm for thousands of years!
A thousand years ago, their king appeared out of nowhere.
Over the years, he subdued various types of Demonic Beasts.
This time as well, the Great King sent out team after team, originally planning to emerge together from that direction!
The first ones dispatched were the Western Demon Wolves, who found their territory and made smooth progress!
The Great King began to send them out in batches, never anticipating that the second batch would be blocked by the local Array and slain by Human Immortals!
They are the fourth group, originally not included in the plan, but the Great King thought that even the transformed dinosaurs could not withstand the Array and were killed.
Instead of sending out the most powerful Demonic Beasts first, they sent out some of the lower-powered ones to see if they could break the Array?
At first, it was the land-walking Demonic Beasts, and no one knew why, but batch after batch died off!
The Great King sent them forth, hoping they would achieve great things, as after all, humans would be terrified at the sight of them!
Yet, they found themselves trapped in this human Magic Artifact, endlessly biting and spewing out Black Mist, which could corrode materials, and gradually breaking down the human Array!
The ground bristled with many white bubbles, all resulting from the Array’s falling Black Mist; the bats emitted powerful toxic mist, which slowly corroded the soil.
While this function does have a bit of usefulness, human Immortal Masters have fortified one array after another, and although corrosion is useful, it also requires time!
They can only use intimidating glares to disgust the human Human Immortals, and this only scares some women who are slightly more timid, without any other effect!
Luo Yaxuan has parked the most powerful Flying Artifact in mid-air, with Liu Jiaojiao by his side.
He prevents her from seeing the Demonic Beasts, whether disgusting or ferocious, time and time again.
He has made the Flying Artifact completely impervious, and when it was time to go out and reinforce the arrays, Luo Yaxuan would go alone!
Letting junior sister Liu Jiaojiao stay inside the Magic Artifact, waiting for her to finish her work before coming back in.
Liu Jiaojiao’s abilities are relatively weak, but she has learned all-around basic skills.
In her spare time, he teaches her about arrays, so once she has the foundational knowledge, he then moves on to teach her other skills!
Luo Yaxuan protects Liu Jiaojiao very well, not letting her go out to work.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to give her divine tribulation, but he doesn’t want those disgusting Demonic Beasts to sully her young and pure heart!
He doesn’t care about how others do it, but he wants to protect Liu Jiaojiao like the precious treasure of the city, even if it might mean she stays a bit childish!
Luo Yaxuan exhibits a bit of chauvinism, which Liu Jiaojiao happily accepts!
Being protected by the one you like, it’s an act of love, not wanting her to get hurt, protecting her as dearly as the parents treasure their own child!
Her parents have always been loving, and now she finds that her senior brother is the same.
She hopes they will always remain in love, and once she grows up a little, she could marry Luo Yaxuan!
In fact, for a girl her age, ordinary Misses or rural girls would already be betrothed and preparing for marriage!
For Cultivators like them, who have long lifespans, her parents wouldn’t let her marry at such a young age.
Liu Jiaojiao also wants to quickly elevate her abilities, to be all-around competent like Luo Yaxuan, and be able to stay by her senior brother’s side!
That way, when there is a mission to undertake, she wouldn’t have to stay with her parents!
Being unable to accompany her senior brother on missions, such separation is difficult to endure!
Liu Jiaojiao is smart; although her talents aren’t high, with Luo Yaxuan’s dedicated help, she has remembered the methods of array learning and has begun to learn to set arrays herself!
Lin Dandan spent a day with her family clan.
In addition to researching the Secret Manual with them, by the time she taught them the ability to create ordinary arrays, it was already the second day!
She is pregnant, and the men of her family wouldn’t let her go out to reinforce arrays!
Lin Dandan also doesn’t want to see those bats; although the bats in the array can’t hurt them, she doesn’t want to bear a psychological burden!
The child must grow up healthily, and although the poison sprayed by the bats within the array can’t affect the outside air, they still need to prevent such toxins from being harmful!
When Xuanyuan Mengting first saw her family, like any other woman, she couldn’t care less about others!
After a day had passed, when she and her companions were observing the arrays, they realized that the bats were rather formidable.
Out of necessity, within a day, they must construct an array to keep reinforcing layer by layer!
The bats have broken several arrays, and even though they are not masters, setting up these arrays is also quite strenuous.
They have now begun to take turns, constantly arranging arrays.
However, after learning the arrays from the Secret Manual, the previous array setters have improved their abilities.
Those who previously couldn’t arrange arrays now also want to try setting up their own!
Xuanyuan Mengting didn’t notice Lin Dandan at first, then she remembered she was pregnant.
As Jiang Tang’s acknowledged main wife, she realized she should pay a bit of attention to Lin Dandan!
Not to say she was magnanimous, but when Jiang Tang was around, she had to look after Lin Dandan.
Lin Dandan didn’t need her protection, and talking to her might be considered just superfluous care!
“Lin Dandan, why don’t you go to the Cai Family’s castle?
After all, there are Cai Xiangxiang and senior sister Yan Weiwei!”
Lin Dandan understood why Xuanyuan Mengting would suggest this.
She smiled gratefully, communicated with Yan Weiwei, and obediently went to the Cai Family’s castle!
