Changing the topic, Immeasurable Grandmaster said, “Let me tell you about the last three Arrays. These three Arrays are offensive Arrays. Most of the Star Energy absorbed by the first three Arrays is stored in these three Arrays. Each of these Arrays is more powerful than the last. If one falls into this Array, even if it is a High Rank Open Heaven Master, he will not be unable to bear the consequences!”
“The formation eye of the first two offensive Arrays, this old master has already arranged a suitable artifact for it. The Execution Heavenly Sword that True Lord gave me previously was placed in the second to the last layer, and with the power of the Great Array, it is able to activate the power of the Execution Heavenly Sword. Ordinary Open Heaven Stage cannot resist the power of this sword!”
“As for the last layer… according to True Lord’s instructions, the position of the formation has been reserved. Although I don’t know what True Lord’s plans are, True Lord must remember that this final layer is based on people. When the strength is insufficient, it is best not to use it lightly, otherwise there will be a risk of backlash.”
Yang Kai nodded solemnly, “I’ll remember. Many thanks, Grandmaster!”
Immeasurable Grandmaster let out a long sigh and lowered his head to stare at the Void Land, his eyes seemingly able to see through the layers of arrays and the Nine Layers Heaven Array, a look of relief filling his face.
“Grandmaster, this is the reward we agreed on before, please accept it.” Yang Kai took out a Space Ring and handed it over.
Inviting this Immeasurable Grandmaster to set up a Great Array, he naturally couldn’t allow him to work for free, and the reward was already agreed upon. Now that the Nine Layers Heaven Array had been perfected, it was only right to pay.
Immeasurable Grandmaster sighed and silently accepted it, saying in a somewhat disappointed tone, “This formation is likely the pinnacle of this old master’s achievements in this life. In the future, there will be no chance for me to surpass it, so I ask True Lord to treat this formation kindly.”
For Array Dao Grandmaster like him, the Nine Layers Heaven Array he had painstakingly arranged over such a long period of time was not only the result of his life’s cultivation, but also like a child he had given birth to. Naturally, he was somewhat reluctant to part with it.
Yang Kai’s heart skipped a beat as he smiled and said, “Grandmaster, if you don’t feel at ease, you may as well stay in my Void Land. I believe that with you personally watching over this array, it will be able to operate for a long time.”
Immeasurable Grandmaster shook his head and said, “Please don’t try to win this old master over, True Lord. This old master is used to being free and unrestrained. If this old master really wanted to join some force, I would have joined long ago and wouldn’t have waited until today.”
Although he knew it was a bit unlikely, Yang Kai was still a bit disappointed when Immeasurable Grandmaster really refused. If such an Array Dao Grandmaster could remain in the Void Land, it would be of great help to the future development of the Void Land. However, even if he tried to force it, it wouldn’t work. Since he was unwilling, Yang Kai couldn’t force it.
“However, please rest assured, True Lord. Since this Nine Layers Heaven Array is set up in the Void Land, this old master will naturally keep all of its mysteries to himself and will not speak of them to outsiders. If any of these secrets are leaked, this old master’s Dao Seal will collapse, the small universe wrold will shatter, and he will die on the spot!”
He was actually swearing on his Dao Seal.
Yang Kai said solemnly, “Grandmaster is too serious. Since Proprietress invited you here to set up the Spirit Array, I naturally trust you.”
Immeasurable Grandmaster smiled, “The one under your command, Nanmen Dajun, has extremely high attainments and comprehension in the Dao of Arrays. Although he is still somewhat lacking now, his future growth is still promising. This old master can rest assured if I hand over the Nine Layers Heaven Array to him in the future.”
Saying so, Immeasurable Grandmaster cupped his fists and said, “True Lord, this old master will take his leave now. If fate wills it, we will meet again!”
Yang Kai was startled, “Grandmaster is leaving now?”
Immeasurable Grandmaster smiled and said, “Thanks to True Lord's help, this old master has been able to display his talent in the Void Land. These past few days, setting up the Spirit Array has given this old master many insights, and the bottleneck that has plagued this old master for many years has loosened somewhat. I’m afraid that this old master is not far from breaking through, so this old master will need to go back to seclusion.”
“Oh?” Yang Kai was surprised and cupped his fists, “Then I must congratulate Grandmaster.”
Yang Kai still didn’t know what grade this Immeasurable Grandmaster was. After all, there were very few opportunities for them to interact with each other, but judging from his aura, he should at least be a Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage master. Above that was a Fifth Order.
for the Array Dao Grandmaster, such a cultivation was not weak.
Since the other party was going back to cultivate in seclusion, Yang Kai naturally didn’t want to make him stay any longer. He politely sent him out of the Void Land until the Immeasurable Grandmaster's flying artifact disappeared from his sight before returning to the Void Land.
Yue He came up from the front and after meeting Yang Kai, she glanced behind him suspiciously, “Has Immeasurable Grandmaster left?”
Yang Kai nodded, “Grandmaster has comprehended the opportunity to break through and is in a hurry to return to seclusion.”
Yue He suddenly understood and said with a worried look, “Young Master, we don’t have many resources left.”
Yang Kai asked curiously, “Weren’t there some left?”
Although setting up the Nine Layers Heaven Array had cost him a great deal of money, and in the end he had even given Immeasurable Grandmaster a large sum of money, he still remembered that there should be some leftover.
Yue He said, “All the old masters have already begun their closed-door cultivation. What they need are all Sixth Grade resources, as well as some other peak Emperor Realm masters who have taken away many Fifth Grade resources. Although we can barely hold on for a while, once more people condense their Dao Seals, their demand for resources will only increase.”
Yue He was in charge of the finances of the entire Void Land, and Yang Kai had previously told her that there was no limit to the cultivation resource of the cultivators from the Star Boundary. As for those below the Third Order Emperor Realm, she didn’t need to worry about them.
However, all of the Great Emperors had condensed their Dao Seals long ago and had immersed themselves in the realm of Great Emperors for tens of thousands of years. Their foundations were solid, and after familiarizing themselves with the environment for a while, they began to cultivate in seclusion.
Iron Blood, Bustling World, Beast Martial, Serene Soul, Tian Shu, Wondrous Pill, Flower Shadow, and Ice Feather, these eight Great Emperors had consumed eight sets of Sixth Grade resources in a short time, and this was only the beginning. The demand for more would only increase.
Yue He was somewhat puzzled, unable to understand how these people all had such strong foundations and aptitudes, all of them actually choosing a Sixth Grade resource.
She had also seen many Great Emperors from other Universe Worlds, but these Great Emperors had varying degrees of aptitude. In general, the Universe World’s Great Emperor would be able to withstand the impact of a Fourth Grade forces, and in the future, they would be able to achieve a Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage, but it was not as exaggerated as the Great Emperors from the Star Boundary.
The reason for this was because their foundations were solid and their Dao Seals were stable, allowing them to withstand even stronger impacts, because they have remained at the Great Emperor level for far too long.
The other Great Emperors of the Universe World would generally begin to condense the power of Yin-Yang + Five Elements in a very short time, so how could they have the time to accumulate and consolidate their Dao Seal? Naturally, their Dao Seals were inferior to Zhan Wuhen and the others.
In addition to these eight Great Emperors, Tian Yan, Sheng Yuzhu, Li Wuyi, Yang Yan, and the others also condensed their own Dao Seals and began cultivating.
Further down, Wen Zishan, Li Jiao, and the others were still condensing their Dao Seals.
There were also the thirty people Yang Kai had brought out from the Great Ruins Boundary, such as Lang Qingshan, the cunning face man, and the others, who had also been consuming resources of different grades.
Now, in the entire Void Land, the remaining Open Heaven Pills was seven or eight hundred million!
Because there weren’t many Open Heaven Stage cultivators in the Void Land, the consumption of Open Heaven Stage Pills was the lowest. Aside from the cost of setting up a great array to purchase materials, it didn’t cost much.
Seven or eight hundred million Open HEaen Pills seemed like a lot, but how many cultivation resources could they be exchanged for? A single Sixth Grade resource would cost at least fifteen million Open Heaven Pills, and a hundred million could only buy six at most, this also require him to find a suitable opportunity. After all, a sixth grade resource wasn’t something common.
In the long run, the finances of the Void Land were a big problem, so it was no wonder Yue He was frowning.
“What about the gourd vine? Didn’t I tell you to collect the power of those small gourds?” Yang Kai asked.
Yue He replied, “I’ve already started, but although those small gourds can produce Fifth Grade forces, the number of times they can be collected is limited, at most once a month.”
The Gourd Vine could be said to be one of the greatest harvests Yang Kai had obtained in the Great Ruins Boundary. Of the three Holy Medicines, the value of the Gourd Vine was the highest. Compared to Pu Baixiong’s healing ability and the illusionary effects of the Little Mushroom, the Gourd Vine could not only allow Yang Kai to display the terrifying power of a Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage at a critical moment, it could also become one of the foundations of the current Void Land.
There were seven small gourds on the gourd vine that corresponded to the Yin-Yang + Five Elements. Normally, they were hidden inside the gourd, but at the critical moment, they could be released.
Since it could be released, it could be collected.
After returning this time, Yang Kai immediately planted the gourd vines in the Void Land. Whenever the small gourds accumulated enough energy, he would let Yue He harvest them.
Collecting it once could provide a cultivator with the Yin-Yang + Five Elements forces needed to cultivate, and it was also a Fifth Grade forces!
It could be imagined that in the future, countless cultivators in the Void Land would benefit from the existence of the gourd vine. If the disciples needed Fifth Grade resources, they could be completely self-sufficient!
Since the Void Land was unable to refine the Open Heaven Pill, this Gourd Vine had become the foundation of the Void Land, allowing it to somewhat alleviate the financial crisis.
The price was that Yang Kai had to give up a trump card.
In the long run, this was undoubtedly worth it.
“However, Young Master, those little gourds have already started to become unhappy and have been clamoring about moving,” Yue He picked up the gourd vine helplessly.
“Don’t worry about them, just tell Chen Tian Fei to watch over them carefully. If anything goes wrong, you'll have to ask him.”
“Yes!”
Yang Kai rubbed his forehead and sighed, “But we still need to solve the problem of the Open Heaven Pill's recipe.”
The Void Land now had a large number of Alchemy materials and many Alchemists, but none of them had the Open Heaven Pill’s recipe, so the situation was quite awkward.
Originally, Seven Skillful Heavenly Monarch definitely had a pill recipe, but after this Heavenly Monarch fellow was killed by Zhao Baichuan and Yu Xiushan, his Space Ring was taken away by Yu Xiushan, so even if he had a pill recipe, it had fallen into Yu Xiushan’s hands.
Yue He said, “There are many Open Heaven Pill's recipes in these 3000 Worlds, each of them somewhat different, but very few of them have been passed down. Young Master, perhaps you can go to a Star City and take a look, perhaps you’ll be able to obtain some harvest.”
