Chapter 415 - 224: The Evil Corpse Emerges from the Bamboo Grove

This speculation is indeed quite ridiculous.

Liou Yuan and Han Zhenzi had only met twice, once at Han Zhenzi’s Corpse Nurturing Land.

The encounter in Qingbao County was the second time.

Moreover, during their first meeting, Liou Yuan was almost harmed by the death aura of the evil corpse within Han Zhenzi.

With just two brief meetings, how could an Array Master from five hundred years ago consider him as his heir?

Liou Yuan had no idea that the array he set up in the demon cave had already been examined by Han Zhenzi.

Liou Yuan, who obtained the inheritance for only two short years, was able to masterfully apply the "Five Elements Birth and Destruction Array Derivation" to the extent that even Han Zhenzi couldn’t find any faults.

In some sense, he was indeed the best heir to Han Zhenzi’s path in array formation.

In this world, the divide between sects was profound, and the regard for inheritance was extremely significant.

Before being trapped in the Corpse Nurturing Land, Han Zhenzi had never taken on a disciple. After his death, having his legacy revived was a kind of solace for Han Zhenzi.

That’s why he made a special trip to Qingbao County to guide Liou Yuan and even left behind his lifebound magical artifact, the All Heaven Derivation Array Disc.

Liou Yuan didn’t know about the affair in the cave.

Recalling his encounter with Han Zhenzi by the arch bridge, Liou Yuan concluded: "It seems Han Zhenzi still has consciousness and is not an irrational evil corpse."

However, even if an evil corpse retains consciousness from its previous life, it is bound to be affected by the nature of the evil corpse.

Therefore, Liou Yuan still harbored apprehension towards the divine sense mark Han Zhenzi left in the All Heaven Derivation Array Disc.

"Who can say when Han Zhenzi might go mad, trace the divine sense mark, and come to kill me?"

"The safest method is to find my big brother and have this divine sense mark erased."

With Liou Zhen’s strength, erasing a divine sense mark should be no problem.

For now, Liou Yuan believed there shouldn’t be any major issues in a short period.

If Han Zhenzi intended to kill him, he would have acted during their encounter in Qingbao County instead of going through so much trouble.

So, at least in the short term, Liou Yuan is safe.

Unless absolutely necessary, Liou Yuan did not want to give up the All Heaven Derivation Array Disc.

"This is the lifebound magical artifact of Han Zhenzi, a renowned Array Master from the Jiuli State five hundred years ago."

"It must be highly compatible with the inheritance of the Five Elements Birth and Destruction Array Derivation, and for this array disc, I am willing to take this risk."

Liou Yuan gently stroked the All Heaven Derivation Array Disc in his hand, his face displaying a look of obsession.

According to the Fixed Star Compass’s description of the All Heaven Derivation Array Disc, one could understand how powerful this array disc is.

’The pieces serve as pivots, accommodating the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi; the grid serves as patterns, gathering the yin and yang energies; the board serves as the structure, governing all things. The three complement each other, and once they are in harmony, spiritual power surges forth, and the grand array is instantly formed.’

With this array disc, Liou Yuan wouldn’t have to set up an array hastily whenever a crisis strikes.

He could pre-set the array onto this array disc, and when facing an enemy, he could immediately deploy it.

In some situations, this could be decisive.

Imagine a future day when Liou Yuan has fully mastered the five Peak Qi Cultivation Arrays from the "Five Elements Birth and Destruction Array Derivation."

Then, arranging all five arrays on this All Heaven Derivation Array Disc could form the Foundation Establishment Array, the Little Five Elements Array.

By that time, he could directly deploy the Foundation Establishment Array, equivalent to having the means to confront a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator.

"With this array disc, it’s like having a lifesaving card in front of a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator."

And that’s not all. When Liou Yuan truly becomes a Foundation Establishment Array Master one day.

By inscribing all the arrays he mastered onto this array disc, deploying them in battle, even a slight misstep by a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator would result in significant losses.

Leaving aside other trump cards, merely in the field of array formation, Liou Yuan could already roam unobstructed in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

The more Liou Yuan thought about it, the more excited he became.

However, another thought suddenly surfaced in his mind.

"That evil corpse is still on my Fixed Star Compass’s execution list!"

"Sigh, today I’ve benefited from his lifebound magical artifact and inheritance; how should I handle myself if we meet again later?"

Liou Yuan rubbed his brow.

He wasn’t the kind of person to burn bridges, to take so many benefits and then turn his back later?

That would obviously be impossible.

"I wonder if being involved with Han Zhenzi is good or bad for me."

In the room, Liou Yuan sighed.

By the arch bridge, news of Liou Yuan receiving recognition from a Foundation Establishment Array Master and being bestowed with a treasure quickly spread throughout Qingbao County.

That day when Liou Yuan broke the array with such a great commotion, the white light shot into the sky, engulfing half the city.

Everyone in Qingbao County saw it; it couldn’t be hidden.

People just didn’t know Han Zhenzi’s identity, assuming he was one of the existing Foundation Establishment Array Masters in Jiuli State.

And Liou Yuan, with his talent and strength in array formations, gained his recognition.

This clearly showed the exceptional talent he had in array formations.

"To receive recognition from a Foundation Establishment Array Master, this disciple named Liou Yuan from the Five Extremes Mountain surely has the potential to become a Foundation Establishment Array Master."

"Indeed, Five Extremes Mountain is about to produce another Foundation Establishment Array Master!"

"Heard that this Liou Yuan is only in his early twenties, while we loose cultivators, in our lifetime, can’t achieve in array formation what he has within a few years."

The loose cultivators in Qingbao County couldn’t help but sigh.

The loose cultivators in Qingbao County didn’t know about Liou Yuan repairing the Star Shining Celestial Array either.

Only a few knew the truth, mostly circulated within the Qingxiao Sect’s inner sect.

That’s why it seemed reasonable for Liou Yuan to gain recognition from a Foundation Establishment Array Master within the Qingxiao Sect.
