CapĂtulo 1439: Chapter 1440: Showing Off Skills
As he arrived in front of the Foundation Stone of the Array, Zhuge Ming flung the array plate he had already inscribed into the air.
After spinning a few times in the air, the array plate instantly began to attract the surrounding natureâs spiritual energy, which surged into it, and the arrayâs lines on it glowed brightly, with chain-like array patterns rushing out.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
These chain-like array patterns instantly plunged into the great family array of the Yuan family above, starting to operate frantically.
The natureâs spiritual energy surged inside, akin to a whale swallowing, transforming into rolling soul energy through the array plateâs absorption and conversion, becoming the power for the entire great family array of the Yuan family.
However, cracks also began to appear on the array plate, clearly unable to hold out for long.
âThis isâŠ?â Yuan De was astonished upon seeing the condition of the array plate.
What kind of array is this, capable of independently absorbing natureâs spiritual energy as its power source, needing no supply from Soul Crystals.
Such a method had never been heard of before.
Yet, using natureâs spiritual energy as the operational basis for arrays was a fundamental skill that any Array Master of later generations must master.
However, in the eyes of Yuan De and others, it seemed like a masterful technique.
The second elder at the side also changed his expression, realizing that just with this skill alone, this Zhuge Ming was no ordinary person.
Moreover, the array patterns and runes that appeared on it were incredibly unfamiliar, only slightly recognizable, causing confusion and lack of understanding.
After the array plate was thrown, Zhuge Ming no longer paid attention to it; its role was merely to temporarily replace the Foundation Stone, serving as the energy supply basis for the array while he continued with his restoration plan.
Under the surge of soul energy, Zhuge Ming directly removed the Foundation Stone from the space at the arrayâs core.
âYou still claim youâre not a traitor, daring to sabotage the family array, seize him quickly!â Yuan Li, upon witnessing this scene, immediately exclaimed in delight.
This Zhuge Ming was courting death, daring to destroy the Foundation Stone, even taking it and storing it in the storage space!
Yuan Li could already envision that soon, in the arrayâs core space, the array master guarding it and his own great-grandfather would personally take action to eliminate Yuan Chuâs supporters.
Yuan Chu would never have a chance to rise again, and it would be a great achievement for him!
However, he found that despite shouting for a long time, there was no movement around, and when he glanced around, he saw those array masters looking at him as if he were a fool.
âDonât speak nonsense if you donât understand, itâs laughable.â Although Yuan Chu didnât know the extent of Zhuge Mingâs skill, from the excited expression of his grandfather, he understood that Zhuge Ming could likely restore the array.
The array masters around looked at Zhuge Ming with admiration.
Yuan Chu was reassured, realizing Zhuge Ming was probably truly an Array Master.
Amusingly, this Yuan Li was shouting without understanding.
âWhat did you say?â Yuan Li pointed at Yuan Chu, angrily accusing, âYou are colluding with outsiders with ulterior motives, now exposed, yet you remain arrogant!â
âArrogant? Are you foolish, canât see whatâs happening right now?â Hearing Yuan Liâs words, Yuan Chu shook his head.
Next to him, Lin Qian wore a mocking smile, initially thinking Yuan Chu was silly, but Yuan Li wasnât much better either.
âSilence!â The second elder also rebuked, glaring at his grandson, âThis person is not simple!â
At this moment, the second elder had no choice but to admire Zhuge Mingâs skill.
But his eyes were filled with malice as if wishing to cut Zhuge Ming into pieces right now.
The others didnât notice this expression much, since it was usual for the second elder of the family to feel resentment at being shamed by an outsider.
However, Lin Qian could see that this elderâs resentment was deep and not merely simple embarrassment.
Squinting slightly, Lin Qian was certain that there was something suspicious about the second elder and his associates.
Perhaps the incident where Yuan Chu was framed was related to them.
Meanwhile, Zhuge Ming continued with his work diligently.
Holding the Foundation Stone, he began inscribing and arranging the array anew, with various pre-refined Soul Ore transforming into installations in his hands, inlaying and inscribing in the arrayâs core space.
At the same time, the array fluctuations in the core space became increasingly intense.
Zhuge Ming worked with incredible speed, racing against the clock.
He used the Array Map to inscribe the Spirit Gathering Array, temporarily replacing the energyâs role, but the array plate couldnât hold for long, only lasting an hour.
However, an hour was more than enough for him; he was very confident in completing the basic Spirit Gathering Array within this timeframe, replacing the entire arrayâs energy supply system.
Watching Zhuge Ming busy at work, the guarding array masters focused intently, not fully understanding, yet still learning something.
As the array Zhuge Ming arranged gradually approached completion, the second elderâs face became increasingly grim, realizing that the array was truly about to be successfully restored.
Moreover, he discovered something terrifyingâthe array being arranged was similar to the array plate hovering above.
Though there were places to inlay Soul Crystals, they were not at the energy supply position.
Beside him, Yuan Li noticed his grandfatherâs forehead sweating profusely, realizing that the array Zhuge Ming was arranging was indeed extraordinary.
Beside him, Yuan De could hardly contain his joy; the damage to the family array had been a weight on his mind.
Now that burden had been lifted, his heart felt much more at ease.
He patted Yuan Chuâs shoulder and said, âChild, youâve finally done a great thing.â
If not for his grandson bringing in help from an Array Master, he wouldnât have known how to deal with the array.
Yuan Chu had indeed achieved a great merit.
Moreover, Yuan De could now rightfully bring Yuan Chu back to Zongyuan City without relying on luck to see if his grandson could achieve a good rank in the trial.
Bang!
Suddenly, the entire array core trembled as the array Zhuge Ming arranged connected with the lines floating above, and the array plate disintegrated into powder, falling into the array.
The entire array core space was filled with bright light, marking the successful restoration of the array.
The second elderâs face was sullen, and Yuan Li felt as if he had swallowed a fly.
