“Array masters need to use array diagrams when they are setting up array formations or practicing with formation diagrams.”
“This is the great Nine Mystics Array… Do you need it?”
As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, a trace of shock suddenly appeared on Luo Shan’s face!
“The… The great Nine Mystics Array!?”
Lou Shan exclaimed in surprise because he had heard of this great Nine Mystics Array before. However, it had been lost through the ages!
There was a legend that once the Nine Mystics Array was activated, it could protect an area of land.
The key was that this great array could last for thousands of years without being broken. Among the defensive array formations, it was definitely one of the strongest.
On the Red Sun Continent, the number of array masters was very few compared to the number of alchemists, but their array formations were indeed as many as the stars!
Although there were many array formations, the ones that were remembered by the world were very few.
That was because people only remembered the strongest and powerful ones.
For example, the Universal Array Formation, the Heaven-Shrouding Array Formation, the Octagonal Array Formation, and so on. They were all extremely powerful, each of them outstanding!
The Nine Mystics Array was as famous as these great array formations. In terms of defense, it was the strongest in the world!
However, the Nine Mystics Array had been lost since Jiang Chen ascended 5,000 years ago. No one had been able to set it up.
As an array master, Lou Shan was excited to hear the name of this array formation!
However, after his excitement, Lou Shan started to worry whether Jiang Chen would exchange it with him.
After all, if such a powerful array formation was real, its value was immeasurable!
“Young brother, you know its history. It should have disappeared. How can I believe you have it?”
Lou Shan calmed down and said slowly.
“It’s up to you to believe it or not. But if you miss this opportunity, I won’t be the one who regrets it!”
“It’s true. I might regret it, but I can’t bear the risk until I know for sure!”
Looking at Lou Shan who was sighing, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but look at him in a different light. He was being too cautious!
However, everything was under Jiang Chen’s control. The outcome had already been decided when he told him the name of the array!
Jiang Chen knew very well that alchemists loved pills as much as their lives, whereas array masters loved array formations!
“In the first place, I came here to buy the materials required for setting up an incomplete Nine Mystics Array. If you want to be sure, then why don’t you follow me back and take a good look for yourself?”
Jiang Chen looked confident, as if he had the victory in his hands.
Tong Mu, who was standing beside him, couldn’t help but have a strange feeling when he heard this.
He had a feeling that Jiang Chen’s purpose wasn’t that simple. He had the feeling that Jiang Chen was trying to trick the array master of this Array Pavilion into going to the True Martial Sect!
“Isn’t this the Nine Mystics Array? Then why did it become an incomplete Nine Mystics Array?” Lou Shan heard the doubt in Jiang Chen’s words and looked at him in a daze.
“Do you think you can set up the Nine Mystics Array with just these few materials?”
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but sneer. He said, “Even if you sold everything in this Array Pavilion, you still won’t be able to create a complete Nine Mystics Array!”
“These materials can only be used to set up an incomplete Nine Mystics Array!”
“Fine! I’ll go with you. I want to see if it’s true or not!”
Lou Shan turned around and said to the dozens of array masters behind him.
“Follow me. I’ll show you how to spot a real one so that you guys don’t make a fool of yourself in the future!”
“Eh… just as I thought. If Lou Shan goes with these array masters, I’m afraid he won’t return.”
Tong Mu thought to himself. At the same time, he admired Jiang Chen’s special method of luring people!
Jiang Chen didn’t refuse the dozen or so array masters’ request to go with him. Instead, he was overjoyed.
If these array masters really went with Jiang Chen, he would be able to set up incomplete Nine Mystic Arrays in a shorter time!
If it was Jiang Chen alone, it would be difficult for him to set them up with his current cultivation level.
However, it would be different with this group of array masters. He might not even need to set them up himself.
Then, Lou Shan asked the group of array masters to make preparations. Soon, he followed Jiang Chen to the True Martial Sect.
In less than half a day, everyone arrived at the True Martial Sect.
“Is this the True Martial Sect?”
“Are you a disciple of the True Martial Sect?”
Lou Shan stared at the dilapidated True Martial Sect in astonishment.
Lou Shan had initially thought that Jiang Chen was a member of a peerless sect when he saw the historical array formation. He didn’t expect Jiang Chen to be from a low-grade sect like the True Martial Sect.
“No. I’m not a disciple of the True Martial Sect. I’m the sect master of the True Martial Sect!”
“Let’s go! Let’s set up the formation first so that you can learn more!” Jiang Chen said calmly.
“Eh… The sect master of the True Martial Sect?” Lou Shan’s mouth twitched. He thought to himself, “This sect master of a trash sect is messing with me, isn’t he? Although the True Martial Sect was once the ruler of the continent for thousands of years, times have changed.”
The True Martial Sect was the number one sect on the Red Sun Continent. It occupied an area of 8,000 miles.
The True Martial Sect owned eight mountain peaks. The main peak covered an area of 1,000 miles, while the rest of the mountain peaks covered 7,000 miles.
However, since the people of the True Martial Sect only lived on the main mountain peak, the rest of the peaks had been abandoned for years.
At this moment, Jiang Chen led the group of alchemists to a mountain peak.
“Are you going to start setting up the array formation now?” Lou Shan urged.
Jiang Chen wasn’t in a hurry to answer him.
Instead, he said calmly, “Not so fast. The incomplete Nine Mystics Array requires 36 main formation bases, 1,008 formation patterns, 36,000 formation stones, and 6 formation eyes to be set up!”
“First… Help me clean up the area.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chen looked back at the array masters with a smile.
Lou Shan and the others almost vomited blood when they heard Jiang Chen’s words.
“You got us all to come here as cleaners!? Kid, don’t trifle with us!”
“Don’t you know who you’re messing with? We are the array masters of the Array Pavilion. We won’t spare your life!”
The array masters berated Jiang Chen one after another. They were furious at him.
“The incomplete Nine Mystics Array isn’t like the low-grade arrays you guys set up. How am I supposed to get a good read of this area if it’s so damn filthy?”
“Well, I could do it myself. But it’ll take me at least half a month to clean up, after all, the True Martial Sect is so big. Can you guys afford to wait?!” Jiang Chen said mockingly.
“Huh! We can’t wait that long. We’ll clean it up for you. But if you lie to us about that incomplete Nine Mystics Array…. I swear I’ll uproot the entire True Martial Sect and grind it into dust!”
