Time flows like water, passing in an instant.
Since the Dragon Country revered Thunder Tiger as the Guardian Beast, Changbai Mountain has also become a Holy Land for the Dragon Country.
Whenever powerful savage beasts wreak havoc, causing massive human casualties and cannot be dealt with, the first thought that comes to the people of the Dragon Country is Changbai Mountain, and the mighty beast that resides there.
Subsequently, the Dragon Country officials would offer a large number of Spiritual Objects, requesting Jiang Che to take action.
However, Jiang Che is definitely uninterested in taking action, and each time it is Nangong Luo who steps up to suppress the threat.
As Nangong Luo's reputation grows, the situation within the Dragon Country gradually stabilizes.
As for that fellow Fang Yuan, ever since his last encounter with Nangong Luo, he has disappeared without a trace, never causing trouble again.
Unknowingly, two months have already passed.
During this time, Nangong Luo, Xiaozi, and Fang Yuan have all made breakthroughs, advancing to the middle of the fourth tier, while Jiang Che, receiving tenfold feedback, has broken through to the middle of the sixth tier.
Regrettably, as the level rises, each minor breakthrough now requires a massive amount of Spiritual Power.
This has resulted in the three instances of tenfold feedback brought by Nangong Luo and the others only allowing Jiang Che to break through one minor level, causing him considerable frustration.
Alas, gone are the days when tenfold feedback would immediately result in a breakthrough of cultivation.
In the Peach Grove Valley, it's a far cry from the usual tranquility, bustling with activity at this moment.
Feeling that having only a simple Cyan Mist Illusion Array in the Peach Grove Valley still wasn't quite safe, Nangong Luo planned to upgrade the array within the valley after advancing to the fourth tier.
Today is the day Nangong Luo upgrades the array.
To speed up the process, Jiang Che directly summoned his juniors like Xiong Da over to act as labor.
"Xiong Da! Quickly bring the Spirit Wood over to me!"
Nangong Luo stood at the edge of the valley, urging Xiong Da, who was not far away.
In the central open space of the valley, newly felled Spirit Wood was scattered around.
Xiong Da stood beside, using his bear paw to strip the bark of the Spirit Wood.
Upon hearing Nangong Luo's call, Xiong Da dared not hesitate, quickly picking up a piece of Spirit Wood, three meters long and barrel-thick, and ran towards Nangong Luo with a wiggling stride.
"Second King, I've brought it."
Getting closer, Xiong Da exclaimed respectfully.
"Mm, not bad! Bear Two and Tiger Vanguard, it's about time, you two come up too!
Nangong Luo first glanced at the Spirit Wood, noticing the well-treated bark, expertly peeled without damaging the wood, with a glow of Spiritual Light, making it an excellent Array Base; she nodded in satisfaction.
Nangong Luo then shifted her gaze to the deep pit on the ground in front of her, calling out calmly.
Tiger Vanguard and Bear Two, who were digging the pit, nearly came to blows when they heard the call, glared at each other, and quickly crawled out of the pit.
"Second King, it was Tiger Vanguard who's slacking off, not me. I'm working diligently."
Bear Two was the first to climb out, covered in dust, and immediately started tattling.
"Out of my way!"
Tiger Vanguard, coming up behind, walked beside Bear Two and fawningly said, "Second King, this pit, your subordinate dug it with great effort, and it's just about done..."
But before he could finish, Bear Two's big butt squeezed over, almost pushing Tiger Vanguard back into the pit.
"Bear Two, I'll crush you!"
Tiger Vanguard was startled, and realizing it, he furiously charged forward wanting to push Bear Two into the pit.
Bear Two refused to be outdone, butted against Tiger Vanguard with his large rear, and the two beasts began wrestling with each other on the spot.
"Alright, you two go to the next marked spot and quickly dig out another pit just like this one. Go, go, go!"
Nangong Luo, headache-stricken, reprimanded them, glanced at the pit over three meters deep, clenched her teeth and waved them off, preferring out of sight and mind.
Still, in her heart, she silently complained about her big brother's taste, having gathered such unreliable underlings.
Initially, she planned to do everything herself slowly, but who knew her big brother would call his rather underwhelming subordinates over.
Her brother wanted to lighten her workload, so Nangong Luo found it hard to refuse, deciding to use these creatures after all.
After consideration, Nangong Luo specially assigned them different tasks.
Tiger Vanguard and Bear Two, the two most unreliable ones, were in charge of digging pits, Xiong Da, steady and meticulous, was responsible for handling the Spirit Wood used as the Array Base, while Chi Lian and Wu Dalang went out to cut down these Spirit Woods...
Upon hearing the Second King speak, Tiger Vanguard and Bear Two immediately dropped their grudges, looked at each other with annoyance, each marching off in opposite directions around the pit, moving towards another location.
"Xiong Da, place the Spirit Wood into the pit!"
Xiong Da nodded, carefully moving the Spirit Wood he held to the pit edge, then slowly lowered it down.
"One meter underground, two meters above ground, just right! Alright, bring it up, then go handle the other Spirit Woods."
Nangong Luo took a careful look, roughly estimating the height, then nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, Second King!"
After Xiong Da left, Nangong Luo began to carve golden array runes into the Spirit Wood lying on the ground, intricate and glowing brightly.
Half an hour later, gazing at the completed Array Base covered in gilded patterns, Nangong Luo's eyes were filled with joy.
"Finally, one is done!"
Then, Nangong Luo left the Array Base by the pit and proceeded to the second pit where Tiger Vanguard and Bear Two were digging.
Half a day later passed.
At the edge of the entire Peach Grove Valley were twelve gilded Array Bases standing, each equally distanced, enclosing the Peach Grove Valley in the center.
"Activate the Array!"
In an instant, the runes on the Spiritual Peach Trees lit up, shooting out beams of Array Light, illuminating every peach tree in the Peach Grove Valley, with Array Light connecting between each tree.
The light spread to the outer standing Array Bases, the twelve gilded Array Bases erupted with a blinding golden light, sheets of luminance spewed from the bases, merging in the air to form a giant golden light dome covering the entire Peach Grove Valley.
Subsequently, threads of golden light akin to golden mist seeped from the luminescence, spreading throughout the valley, ultimately forming patches of golden clouds over the valley sky.
The Golden Dawn Cloud Gang Array!
Not only does it have a mind-confounding golden mist, it boasts strong defenses. Additionally, the golden clouds above can emit extremely powerful light beams.
"Alright, you all can retreat now."
Seeing the array successfully set up, Jiang Che, who had been watching aside, smiled and waved at Tiger Vanguard and the others.
"Yes, King!"
After Tiger Vanguard and the beasts left, Jiang Che was just about to congratulate Nangong Luo.
"Third Sister…"
Unexpectedly, at that moment, the dark sky suddenly brightened, revealing the mystical phenomenon of Nine Stars Linked Beads in the sky.
"What is this!"
Nangong Luo, standing at the front, looked up, her expression changing instantly.
"The second surge of Spiritual Qi is finally here!"
