"The essential part of this array isn't us, it's you."
Inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals, the Immortal of Arrays and Crafts appeared regretful.
Ling Xian was a little stunned at this.
The essential part of this array was him?
But he didn't do anything.
Ling Xian was very confused. In the past year, all he's done was enjoying himself and he did not exert any effort with anything. He didn't even ask about this task, let alone contribute to it. How did he become the owner of it?
Currently, he was looking questioningly at the two real immortals, who were looking depressed.
At this, the Immortal of Arrays explained, "This array is named the Heaven Shadowing Array and it only has one ability – to conceal, to perfectly conceal. Other than real immortals like us, nobody else can find the city once the array is set."
"As long as this array surrounds the entire City of Sin, the city will begin to descend downwards and all of its special powers will be concealed."
After a short pause, the Immortal of Array continued, "When that happens, the City of Sin will earn its protection. You will no longer need to worry about someone finding it."
Hearing this, Ling Xian revealed a joyous smile.
Even though Feng Qing Ming said that real immortals like himself could find this array, in this world, where would anyone find real immortals?
Of course, the immortals inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals were an exception. That was an accident.
Since it was impossible for other immortals to exist, it would mean that nobody in the world could ever find this array. Thus, Ling Xian was no longer worried.
However, he still wasn't sure why he was a main contributor to this array and why he was linked to it.
Thus, he continued to stare at the two immortals questioningly.
"I designed this array, and it is one of my proudest products."
The Array of Immortals said mysteriously, "To design a flawless array, I haven't taken a rest in a year. I even sought help from the old man Duan Shan He and asked him to help me make the perfect array board. What I intended was for the Heaven Shadowing Array to be able to perfectly conceal."
"This array was made by me and to ensure it's unparalleled, I didn't rest for a year. Pondering day after day and working night after night, I finally found the most optimal method to combine materials and make the best array."
Duan Shan He continued, "Then, I worked meticulously to ensure the hundreds of materials required for the array to stay in balance and compliment each other. This was how the Heaven Shadowing Array was created."
"These were all because of you two, it's completely unrelated to me."
Ling Xian was getting more and more confused. These two immortals were obviously telling him how much work they put into the array, how was this related to him?
"Aye."
The two immortals sighed in unison and exchanged glances. They then whispered an eerie statement.
"Because without you, this array will end up an useless array. It would be an array that ranks lower than the ones made by array apprentices."
At this, Ling Xian once again fell in awe.
Alright… so these two were talking each other up and telling him just how hard it was to make this array, but it ended up being a useless array?
"Immortals, let's get to the point. I am getting more and more confused."
Ling Xian bitterly chuckled and asked, "Why am I the core of this? And why would it be useless without me?"
Hearing this, the two immortals felt embarrassed. They nudged each other and neither wanted to speak of this ugly truth.
At this, Ling Xian shook his head, "If you two are not willing to tell me, then whatever. A useless array it can stay."
"Alright, I'll tell you."
Feng Qing Ming sighed. "Originally, we wanted to awaken this array using a technique. But, we were far too excited when making this array and forgot all about the activation part."
"In other words, we cannot activate this array. Thus it's no different than a useless array."
At once, the Immortal of Array's face flashed with happiness. "Fortunately, this array is a treasurable one and has the ability to be awakened at the existence of blood."
"Let me add on to this, because this array is too precious, it's very high ranked. So normal blood is useless, we need at least the blood from someone with the Sage Body."
Duan Shan He added, other than regret on his face, only embarrasement remained.
He personally made this treasure but forgot all about the activation part, so they couldn't use it. Who wouldn't be embarrassed at this?
"I see."
Ling Xian understood now. So this array must be fueled by heavenly blood before it could reveal its perfect abilities. As a person with majestic ancient blood, his blood was on par with those with the Sage Body, thus he was the perfect candidate.
This was why these two immortals said he was the true contributor to this array and this was why they looked so regretful.
Think about it, a product that you created through hard work can only be used if someone else offers their help. Who wouldn't feel regretful at this?
After listening to the whole situation, Ling Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "So this is why…"
"Isn't that enough of a reason?"
The Immortal of Array continued to look sad, the Immortal of Crafts was no different.
"But that doesn't necessarily mean I am the main contributor. Even without my blood, this array wouldn't be useless."
Ling Xian softly grinned. "Without you two's profound knowledge and experience, would the Heaven Shadowing Array have existed? In other words, without you, there would be no chance for me to even use my majestic ancient blood."
"So, you two are truly the owners of this array."
Ling Xian did not take credit for this array. He had no reason to take credit.
Instantly, these two immortals smiled colorfully and no more negative emotions could be seen. Remembering how they were so many years old but did not possess a heart as big as a young man's, they felt a little embarrassed.
"Not bad not bad, we were simply testing you to see if you would take the credit." The Immortal of Arrays did not have a change in expression. He smiled in satisfaction, "Not bad, your reaction is up to my expectation."
"Yes, that's exactly what it was. Ehem, ehem. " The Immortal of Crafts chimed in harmoniously.
Ling Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought it was obvious that they made up that test on the spot just now.
Though he saw right through them, he didn't lift their cover. Instead, he changed the subject, "Then let me hurry and use my blood to shower this array. Then, we can bury the City of Sin."
"Of course."
The Immortal of Arrays laughed, "Two drops of your ancient majestic blood is all we need. One drop on each array board."
Ling Xian nodded and manipulated his Qi. Two silver droplets of blood trickled down his fingertip.
Immediately, the silver blood droplets emitted an extremely powerful vibration that created a turmoil inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals. Land within miles quaked and the sky changed colors!
At this, the two immortal's eyes flashed with shock and both gasped.
"It is no wonder this is known as the legendary majestic ancient blood."
Hearing this, Ling Xian softly smiled and dripped his blood onto the two array boards. Just then, different colored light flooded the entire space.
After the light dissipated, the two array boards were acting as if they were granted life. No longer dim, they were now reflecting off different light. These boards have also acquired special properties – they were now acting like two fairies that danced around Ling Xian.
It was as if they were waving hi to their master.
This shocked Ling Xian. After a brief moment of thinking however, he understood. Since these array boards were awakened by him, then who deserved to be their master if not him?
"The array board has recognized you as its owner. From today on, you are the owner of the Heaven Shadowing Array."
Feng Qing Ming softly grinned. "It is time for you to bury the City of Sin."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
