Sacrificial Artifact System: From Bell-ringer to the Ancestral Patriarch of the Sect-Chapter 164 - 136 Werewolf (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2

Several Array Masters turned their heads and saw a man in green clothes with a beard, looking to be in his thirties, approaching.

"May I know who this friend is?"

The elderly Array Master couldn’t help but ask.

"Chen Bell Platform’s Li Qian."

Li Qian clasped his hands together and said, "I just happen to know a little about arrays."

"You’re Li Qian? Xiao Heavenly Person mentioned you’re proficient in arrays; very impressive, come, come... tell me, how do these array patterns function?"

The elderly Array Master eagerly asked.

For those who spent a lifetime studying arrays, nothing sparked more curiosity than suddenly encountering a different system of arrays.

"I dare not claim to be impressive, but I feel honored to exchange knowledge about arrays with all the seniors here."

Li Qian spoke with a smile.

He then circled around the pillar a few times, starting to explain the operational mechanism of the array patterns to the several Array Masters present, based on his understanding of the Lion Camel Ridge Array Solution.

Just like how a Martial Arts Heart Method transports True Qi within the human body... array patterns also have a similar principle.

However, different array systems may have completely different approaches.

Since the Lion Camel Ridge Array Solution originated from the Demon Race... and since the Demon Race’s bodies and philosophies are strikingly different from humans, the array system they create would inevitably have significant differences.

After hearing Li Qian’s explanation, the several Array Masters present were somewhat perplexed, but they all had the feeling that Li Qian’s level in arrays was incredibly profound.

With a bit of hint from Li Qian, the Array Masters brought out their studied Taishan Formation Record, unfortunately, it was an incomplete manuscript, said to have originally been recorded on a Jade Scroll.

But that Jade Scroll was severely damaged, missing much of the content.

The Taishan Formation Record was actually orally recorded based on the understanding of the first generation of Divine Sword Sect’s Array Master.

After examining it, Li Qian confirmed that the Taishan Formation Record did indeed possess an array system that could be considered alongside the Lion Camel Ridge Array Solution, a pity it was severely incomplete.

Including the foundations of the array, only two were present... all the rest were missing.

However, in terms of theoretical knowledge, it was still fairly comprehensive.

This was precisely what Li Qian needed most.

He now finally understood why the Divine Sword Sect’s Array Masters were so lackluster.

Mainly because the Taishan Formation Record was incomplete; mastering it would indeed be a miracle.

In the following period, Li Qian would go to Array Valley every day to exchange knowledge about arrays with those Array Masters.

He took the opportunity to study the five Solid Array Piles, trying to repair and restore the array found inside Panyuan Cave Mansion.

He had never set up a Great Array with Solid Array Piles before, so this was a rare studying opportunity.

It was also for this reason that he chose to reveal to Xiao Heavenly Person that he was skilled in arrays.

...

Chen Bell Platform was very tranquil.

Li Qian’s bell-ringing cultivation life was also very stable and regular.

But the outside world was undergoing major changes.

The cases of mutations were becoming more serious.

Moreover, the occasional traces of demons also attracted the nerves of many powerful factions.

Every time traces of demons appeared, it would lead to a bloodbath, with a great cost to clear it away.

Divine Sword Hall.

Numerous powerful elders and Peak Masters gathered.

"In Yunwu’s fourth year in July, traces of demons appeared in Luguang County of Zhuzhou, and over five thousand four hundred residents of Snake Bone Town died overnight. Ultimately, it took the great Martial Arts Sect, Heavenly Cloud Sect, and Peacock Sect joining hands and paying a heavy price to encircle and slay the demon."

"In Yunwu’s fourth year in December, traces of demons appeared in Raoyang County of Fengzhou, causing thousands of casualties. The Primordial King Mansion acted in time, mobilizing three Heavenly Persons to encircle and slay the demon, and even one Heavenly Person was seriously injured."

"In Yunwu’s fifth year in April, traces of demons appeared in Seven Miles Village of Min County in Taizhou, with three hundred villagers mysteriously vanishing. The great Martial Arts Sect, Dianxing Sect, dispatched a Heavenly Person, only to severely injure the demon beast, which eventually disappeared without a trace."

"In Yunwu’s fifth year in August, traces of demons appeared in Fulin County of Huan State. Hundreds of members from a Martial Arts Sect died miserably, and the calamity spread to another town, causing thousands of deaths and injuries, and in the end, it was encircled and killed by the Primordial King Mansion."

"In Yunwu’s fifth year in November, traces of demons appeared in Qingcheng County of Shu State. Many people witnessed it, but it did not result in casualties. Fan Royal Mansion investigated, but the demon bird disappeared without a trace."

"In Yunwu’s sixth year in February, traces of demons appeared in Guixi County City of Puzhou, with a large number of children dying. One of the three major sects, Dharma Temple, dispatched a Heavenly Person and eventually captured the demon."

...

Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu narrated the events involving demon traces that had occurred in Dachang over the past year.

"From the current situation, these incidents of demon traces seem to be becoming more frequent."

He said in a deep voice.

These incidents of demon traces were only what the Divine Sword Sect was aware of.

As for those not discovered, or those currently happening, they remained unknown.

Moreover, two years ago, the Lizard Beast unearthed within the Ancient Relics by the Divine Sword Sect was very likely a demon... but this matter was not made public and only the higher-ups of the Divine Sword Sect were aware of this.

No demon traces had appeared in the territory of the Divine Sword Sect so far, and no one knew when they might occur, but given the trend, it would likely happen in the future.

"Therefore, we must strengthen the surveillance within our territory’s sphere of influence, take precautions before anything happens, and try to detect demon traces in advance... And moreover, each incident of demon traces... is more or less related to the Moon Worship Sect."

Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu added.

"These degenerates of the Moon Worship Sect are really no longer acting like humans."

"We must intensify our crackdown on the Moon Worship Sect."

"These rats are hiding too deeply. It’s impossible to completely eradicate them without capturing the core high-level members of the Moon Worship Sect in one fell swoop."

...

None of the people present had a good solution for eliminating the Moon Worship Sect.

After all, the Moon Worship Sect still existed despite the years.

"Sect Leader, urgent news."

At this moment, an elder from Flying Eagle Hall rushed over, handing over a report to Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu.
