Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique-Chapter 124 - 13 Nangong Ningyue

Breeze Town, located near the Wilderness Jungle, was a bustling place where many cultivators came to rest before entering the jungle.

Lin Feng arrived in Breeze Town.

Although Breeze Town was small, it had everything one could need—brothels, gambling dens, bars, inns, and more.

Clip-clop, clip-clop...

Outside Breeze Town, there came the sound of horses’ hooves.

Chickens squawked and dogs scurried in the town.

A group of mercenaries on Xuanhuang Steeds rushed into the woods, showing no signs of stopping.

"The young master of the Giant Dragon Mercenary Group is here, dodge quickly!"

Many people began shouting loudly.

Pedestrians hurriedly moved to the sides of the road to avoid them.

"Young brother, move quickly and don’t block these people’s way, otherwise, you won’t be able to walk away unscathed,"

a middle-aged cultivator pulled Lin Feng to the side of the street.

Soon, a group of more than thirty mounted mercenaries on Xuanhuang Steeds charged into the town.

"Uncle, who are these people? They are so reckless." Lin Feng asked.

The middle-aged cultivator replied, "Young brother, you must be new here. Those people are untouchable. Let me tell you, the leader, called Xu Tianhao, is the young master of the Giant Dragon Mercenary Group, which is the second-ranked superior mercenary group in True Martial Country. The leader of the Giant Dragon Mercenary Group, Xu Cangxuan, is a cultivator of the Martial General Realm. Who would dare mess with them? It’s simply courting death."

"I see, thank you for the information." Lin Feng gave his thanks with a clasped fist.

After parting ways with the middle-aged cultivator, Lin Feng found a restaurant to eat. He chose a seat on the second floor, and soon after, a group of people headed to the third-floor private room, led by "Xu Tianhao."

This person appeared to be in his twenties, with a pair of narrow eyes that made him look quite stern.

The group directly went up to the third floor.

Lin Feng didn’t pay much attention to these people. After finishing his meal, Lin Feng found an inn in the town and booked a room; he planned to rest in the town for a few days. After more than a month in the Wilderness Jungle experiencing numerous life and death struggles, Lin Feng felt quite exhausted and needed a good rest.

Lin Feng stayed on the fourth floor. Opening the window, he saw a shop across the street called "Lingxuan Pavilion," which he learned sold simple Spirit Arrays.

The owner of Lingxuan Pavilion was "Nangong Ningyue," a Spirit Array Master.

This surprised Lin Feng greatly; he never expected to find a Spirit Array Master in a small place like Breeze Town.

Lin Feng went into Lingxuan Pavilion, where three extremely attractive attendants worked, and sitting inside at the counter was a woman in white. This woman seemed to be only about seventeen or eighteen and had an exquisitely beautiful face. In her white attire, she looked like an immortal not of this world.

"Sir, would you like to buy an Array? We sell First and Second Grade Array Talismans here, all personally drawn by Lady Nangong,"

an attendant approached, smiling.

An Array Talisman involved drawing an Array on a talisman stone.

A talisman stone was a special kind of stone, also the medium for drawing Arrays.

Once the Array Talisman was successfully drawn, one only needed to channel True Qi into it, and the Array marked on the talisman would activate.

"I am here to visit Lady Nangong; could you please inform her?" Lin Feng asked.

"Sir, our Lady Nangong does not see visitors," the attendant replied.

Lin Feng continued, "Tell her that a Spirit Array Master wishes to visit her."

"You are also a Spirit Array Master? Alright, I will go inform her," hearing that Lin Feng was a Spirit Array Master, the attendant’s face showed immense respect.

A Spirit Array Master was one of Heavenly Martial Continent’s most esteemed professions.

Spirit Array Masters could be distinguished guests in any power.

The attendant went to inform Nangong Ningyue, who looked out and saw Lin Feng and nodded. She got up and walked out.

"Nangong Ningyue is late in welcoming you; I hope you, my friend, can understand," Nangong Ningyue approached with a pleasant scent, speaking with a gentle and melodious voice. Up close, Lin Feng was even more struck by her beauty; she truly seemed like an immortal who had fallen to earth.

"Miss Nangong is too kind. My name is Lin Feng, and I’m passing through this place. Hearing that Miss Nangong is a Spirit Array Master, I took the liberty to visit," Lin Feng greeted with a clasp of the hands.

"Brother Lin’s visit brings joy to my heart, and you are most welcome here. Please follow me to the sitting room for a detailed discussion," Nangong Ningyue said with a smile.

They moved to the sitting room, where a maid served them tea.

Nangong Ningyue smiled, "Looking unfamiliar, I wonder from where Brother Lin hails?"

Lin Feng replied, "I am from Azure Cloud City."

Nangong Ningyue said, "I never expected that Azure Cloud City would produce a Spirit Array Master genius like Brother Lin."

Indeed, a Spirit Array Master was extremely rare—ten cities might not necessarily have one.

For a small place like Azure Cloud City to produce a Spirit Array Master was indeed quite surprising.

Lin Feng said, "Becoming a Spirit Array Master was also a stroke of luck. Today, I just arrived in Breeze Town and came straight to visit Miss Nangong. I plan to stay in Breeze Town for some time and hope to have more discussions with Miss Nangong."

Nangong Ningyue joyfully said, "I couldn’t ask for more. It’s not easy to find a Spirit Array Master with whom to exchange ideas in this vast sea of people."

After saying goodbye to Nangong Ningyue, Lin Feng found a nearby inn to stay.

In the following period, Lin Feng often exchanged ideas and insights on Spirit Arrays with Nangong Ningyue.

Currently, Lin Feng was a "Yellow Rank, Beginner, Intermediate Spirit Array Master," mastering twelve Array Maps.

Nangong Ningyue, on the other hand, was a "Yellow Rank, Beginner, High-level Spirit Array Master," mastering twenty-six Array Maps.

Their levels weren’t too far apart, which allowed for fruitful discussions and exchanges.

Inside the Lingxuan Pavilion, Lin Feng stood at a table, drawing a Spirit Array.

Streams of Spiritual Patterns appeared on the talisman paper, moving as if alive, emanating a blazing energy.

This is the "Fiery Fire Array"!

It is a Yellow Rank, beginner, high-level spiritual array. Recently, Lin Feng learned a lot about spirit arrays from his discussions with Nangong Ningyue, and felt he had made significant progress. So, he began trying to advance to a higher rank of spirit array master.

This grand array was composed of forty-nine spiritual patterns intertwined, Lin Feng focused intently as the patterns twisted together, forming a beautiful pattern that, upon closer examination, resembled a cluster of flames ready to burst into intense fire.

When the last spiritual pattern was complete, spiritual energy from heaven and earth continuously gathered, absorbed by the interwoven spiritual patterns.

The twisted spiritual patterns emitted waves of energy with a blazing attribute.

Nangong Ningyue said with a smile, "Congratulations, Brother Lin, on successfully stepping into the rank of high-level spiritual array master."

Lin Feng exhaled and then said with a smile, "These past days, I must thank Miss Ningyue for her help; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy to make this breakthrough."

Nangong Ningyue smiled slightly and replied, "We are helping each other and improving together."

Despite her young age and being a Yellow Rank, beginner, high-level spirit array master, Nangong Ningyue was incredibly humble and low-profile.

The next morning was bright and sunny, with warm sunlight spilling down.

Lin Feng and Nangong Ningyue set out together into the Wilderness Jungle.

This time, entering the Wilderness Jungle, Lin Feng was there to collect talisman stones with Nangong Ningyue.

Talisman stones are special stones that serve as carriers for formations.

Formations drawn on talisman paper weaken over time and quickly dissipate.

However, when drawn on talisman stones, they can preserve indefinitely. Talisman stones are also very portable and convenient to use; if one wishes to use a formation to defeat enemies, one merely needs to deploy the talisman stone and channel True Qi into it to release its power.

The talisman stones of Lingxuan Pavilion were all personally collected by Nangong Ningyue.

They reached a mountain range, and Nangong Ningyue said, "Talisman stones are stones infused with spiritual energy, and the most common places where they appear are locations constantly exposed to the elements, like over there."

Nangong Ningyue pointed towards a mountain peak, and the two climbed it, indeed finding many talisman stones.

These talisman stones contained a faint energy, a special phenomenon formed from years of absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.

"Are there different kinds of talisman stones?" Lin Feng asked.

Nangong Ningyue nodded and answered, "Of course, the best talisman stones are clear like crystal, which are the dream of every spirit array master. If a formation is drawn on such a talisman stone, the power of the formation will be greatly enhanced and increased."

"I see."

Lin Feng nodded.

Over the next few days, Lin Feng and Nangong Ningyue visited many places in search of talisman stones and collected many of them.

Every time they collected some high-quality talisman stones, Nangong Ningyue acted like a naive little girl receiving a toy, and her stunningly beautiful face revealed a purely joyful smile.

That afternoon, Lin Feng and Nangong Ningyue entered a valley, where they found many high-grade talisman stones.

They were both very happy and collected a large number of talisman stones in that area.

Boom.

In the evening, a thunderous booming sound came from deep within the valley.

A section of the mountain collapsed, revealing a steep rock face.

Above that rock face, a cave appeared in Lin Feng and Nangong Ningyue’s line of sight.

"Look, a cave!"

Lin Feng pointed to the cave in surprise.

"Let’s go and check it out." Nangong Ningyue suggested.

"Alright."

Lin Feng nodded and walked with Nangong Ningyue toward the cave.

Soon, they arrived at the cliff and jumped onto a narrow ledge in front of the cave before peering inside.

The cave was pitch black.

Lin Feng lit a torch and entered the cave with Nangong Ningyue.

The passage was long, and after moving about four or five meters, Lin Feng noticed some oil lamps on the rock walls, which he lit with the torch, gradually illuminating the inside of the cave.

"This place seems to have been inhabited," Nangong Ningyue observed.

"Could it be a strong cultivator’s cave mansion?" Lin Feng speculated.

"Possibly," Nangong Ningyue nodded.

They quickened their pace.

After walking about a hundred meters, they found a huge cavity in the mountain.

Inside, they saw stone furniture, like stone chairs and stone tables.

Additionally, there was a stone bed with a skeleton sitting cross-legged on it.

"It’s indeed a strong cultivator’s cave mansion; it seems this predecessor has fallen long ago, turning into a skeleton. Oh, look, there are two books and two elixirs on that table," Lin Feng exclaimed, pointing to the stone table beside the stone bed.

"They must be left by this predecessor," the joy on Nangong Ningyue’s pretty face was evident.

They moved toward the stone table.

But at that moment.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...

Sounds of breaking air came as several figures rushed into the cave from outside.

"Damn, someone’s coming."
