Gao Wu: Others practice martial arts, but you cultivate immortality?

Chu Yuan's eye twitched;

The room didn't contain any energy-gathering array, but rather a spirit-gathering array that he had converted using the system!

He thought that the energy gathering array of a martial artist would be useless to him, and the spirit gathering array should also be of little use to a martial artist, since most of the energy in the spirit gathering array is not something that a martial artist can absorb.

But judging from Zhu Long's attitude now... it doesn't seem to be like that?

Xie Jun had entered the range of the Spirit Gathering Array before at the training base, but he didn't show any abnormality... Was it because his strength was insufficient?

And Zhu Long's current performance...? Are some of the energy types in the Spirit Gathering Array useful to him?

"How's it going? Have you figured out how to make it up yet?"

"Or I can teach you," Zhu Long suggested to Chu Yuan. "Just say it was arranged by Zhao Zhengyuan. Do you think I should verify it?" Chu Yuan thought he was a bit crazy...

"Um... what's wrong with this energy-gathering array?" Chu Yuan pretended to be confused and asked again to confirm;

"I won't lie to you, this energy-gathering array is useful to me;"

Although your spying on the core of the barracks was unintentional, it was still a serious violation of military discipline!

Unless you build me the same energy-gathering array, I'll definitely punish you severely by forfeiting your military merits!

Chu Yuan was speechless. What kind of marshal was this? This was more like a thug... Even the Ninth Legion's discipline wasn't like this!

The top beam is completely crooked, while the bottom beam is perfectly normal... It's nothing short of a miracle...

But he also breathed a sigh of relief. Zhu Long only asked him to set up the same spirit-gathering array for him, without asking any further questions.

Could it be because of the teacher and Elder Zhao Zheng that the legion commander has become much more tolerant of him?

However, considering that even the Blood Sea Soul-Locking Array has been exposed, adding another Spirit Gathering Array won't make much difference...

Chu Yuan was actually aware that the abnormalities he possessed would be difficult to hide from true experts.

Everyone else has fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood; if you don't have keen observation skills, you would have perished long ago.

Or perhaps, the Qin Dynasty had already been thoroughly infiltrated...

Unless one cultivates alone, does not occupy any resources of the Great Qin, and does not contact anyone, perhaps one can remain hidden indefinitely.

But that's impossible...

However, unlike the worst-case scenario he had anticipated, none of the high-ranking officials he had been able to contact showed any intention of getting to the bottom of things.

They seem to only want him to become stronger, without investigating the root cause of his abnormality!

Zhu Long's current "extortion" is not a matter of coercing orders from a superior position, but rather a subtle way of placing himself in a relatively equal position.

It's like the saying between friends, "If you don't invite me to wash your feet, I'll report you..."

Why?

Zhao Zhengyuan could also explain it by saying that his cultivation of the Kingdom of Light aroused his appreciation for talent;

But Commander Zhu Long had absolutely no connection with him whatsoever...

"What, haven't you thought it through yet?" Zhu Long urged.

Chu Yuan decided to stop thinking about it; he felt that there were many secrets about the Great Qin that he didn't know.

Especially when it involves high-level martial artists...

He smiled and said frankly, "There's no need for that. I'll organize it later and teach you the method of setting up the formation."

A flicker of surprise crossed Zhu Long's eyes, followed by a burst of laughter;

"Let me guess, is the name of this formation changed to Energy Gathering Array?"

Chu Yuan thought to himself, "You know quite a lot. So what if it's 'changed'? It was 'changed' to begin with..."

"You little rascal... Haha, good! Good indeed!"

Not knowing what he was "fond" of, Chu Yuan simply asked out of curiosity, "Marshal, is this energy-gathering array really useful to you?"

"Why would I lie to you?" Zhu Long asked without a trace of impatience, his tone mysterious. "Do you know how martial artists above the seventh realm cultivate?"

"All I know is that it involves the laws of nature."

"That's right, it's the law, and the special energy corresponding to the law;"

After the seventh realm, while vital energy is important, it's not that crucial! Simply accumulating vital energy alone is insufficient to break through realms.

There are only laws... but under certain special circumstances, a certain law may become more active;

For example, those who cultivate the Law of Fire will find it much easier to comprehend the Law in a volcano than at the bottom of the sea! You know Fire Gold, right? Besides crafting equipment, it also has another use: assisting in cultivation!

There was a saying from when Lao Tzu was in school... something like, "Matter is the foundation of energy and information."

Chu Yuan swallowed hard, unable to resist exclaiming, "Is this really that scientific?"

This is not martial arts at all...

"Hey, who knows? Anyway, some things are just common... Your spirit-gathering array contains a wide variety of energy types."

Apart from its concentration, it seems no different from the natural world outside.

It's like...it's like..." Zhu Long frowned, trying hard to find the feeling;

After hesitating for a while, he finally said, "It's like gathering a large area of ​​natural matter into a small room?"

Although there were no special circumstances, but... is the concentration different? Or the density?

"..." Chu Yuan seemed to understand, but also seemed not to fully understand;

In more sophisticated terms, it's like a miniature world?

Things that were previously difficult to observe and whose full picture could not be seen have become clearer and more intuitive?

Zhu Long finally gave up on explaining and patted Chu Yuan on the shoulder again: "Anyway, you just need to know that this thing is useful to us!"

You don't need to hand it over to me. Just upload it to the cultivation technique database. Each person who exchanges it will also receive a military merit!

"You're guaranteed to make money, kid! This is a great business!"

"...So what about me accidentally releasing my mental energy?"

"I'm in seclusion, I don't know... Let's wait until someone comes to complain before we talk about it."

"..."

"What seclusion? Who's in seclusion?" Yuan Yang's voice came from outside the door: "Chu Yuan, I've been waiting for you for ages, what's wrong?"

Chu Yuan's vision suddenly vanished; Zhu Long's figure had disappeared.

Yuan Yang walked in from outside and asked curiously, "I think I just heard the legion commander's voice?"

"You must be hallucinating..."

"Maybe." Yuan Yang scratched his head a couple of times. "Let's go, everyone's waiting for you."

......

What are we waiting for Chu Yuan to do? To divide the spoils, of course;

With Li Mengru absent, the atmosphere was somewhat somber.

Chu Yuan couldn't help but twitch his lips as he watched Yuan Yang and the others pour out the distinctive local specialties from their storage rings.

These things... don't look like they were plundered from the Crystalfire Clan...

"As usual, let's see if there's anything that's a good match for us first."

"Captain, I want to forge a hammer..."

"What are you going to do, you hit me... Chu Yuan, you choose first."

......
