Chapter 369: Reunion
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
West Sea, unknown island.
Three days later, when Lu Ming and the Mother Tree’s clone arrived at this place through the teleportation array, the first thing they saw was Jiu Han waiting ahead.
Their eyes t, and Lu Ming could clearly see the joy in Jiu Han’s eyes.
He stroked his long beard and said warmly, “It’s good that you’re safe, really good.”
Lu Ming ca to Jiu Han’s side respectfully and greeted him, “Teacher.”
Before Lu Ming could speak again, Jiu Han had already pulled Lu Ming along and walked towards the depths of the small island. As they were walking, he said, “Let’s find a quiet place to talk.”
anwhile, the Mother Tree’s clone was ignored by Lu Ming and Jiu Han.
Since Lu Ming had already found Jiu Han, he naturally had no need to pay attention to the Mother Tree.
Unexpectedly, Lu Ming’s indifference made the Mother Tree heave a sigh of relief.
Watching Lu Ming’s figure gradually disappear into the distance, a question lingered in the Mother Tree’s mind.
“How strong is this monster now?”
It did not know.
It could not understand either.
In any case, it only knew one thing. The monster had beco even more monstrous, and that was enough.
As a master of the Divine Spirit Realm and array formations, Jiu Han received excellent treatnt on this secret island of the Subversives.
A private mountain peak with guaranteed safety and secrecy.
Jiu Han led Lu Ming all the way to his own mountain peak. After entering a simple but spacious courtyard, Jiu Han ford a seal with both hands and activated the array formation in the manor.
After isolating all external perceptions, Jiu Han turned to Lu Ming and said, “Now we can talk…”
After saying that, Jiu Han pointed above his head, “This place is crowded and noisy. We need to be cautious while we, teacher and disciple, are here.”
Lu Ming nodded in agreent.
On the way here, Lu Ming had already learned from the Mother Tree that Jiu Han was currently in the camp of the subversives and had reached a certain cooperation agreent with the subversives.
Actually, when Lu Ming first learned about this, he was a little confused.
How did they beco friends when they were supposed to be enemies?
However, Lu Ming had no objections to Jiu Han’s decision. He was not a mber of the Eternal Clan and did not have a sense of belonging to it.
If Jiu Han, an Eternal Clansman, could betray, what else could Lu Ming say?
But from Jiu Han’s current actions and deanor, it was clear that his cooperation with the Subversives was not wholehearted.
He did not trust them.
As this thought flashed through his mind, Lu Ming touched his pocket and took out a palm-sized Boshi Tower.
Handing the Boshi Tower to Jiu Han and facing Jiu Han’s puzzled eyes, Lu Ming said, “Previously, when the black mist suddenly shrouded Xuanshui City, the monsters in the mist targeted and killed everything that had Source Power fluctuations. I had no choice but to take the Boshi Tower for my own use so that I could modify the array formation inside the tower.”
“Now that the crisis has passed, I’ll return this Boshi Tower to Teacher.”
With that said, Lu Ming paused for a mont, as if he rembered sothing, and continued, “By the way, Senior Brother Shu Fang, the teachers and students of the academy, and so Xuanshui City residents are also in the tower. Senior Brother Shu Fang was hit by the first wave of the black mist and his divinity entered a dormant state. He hasn’t woken up yet.”
After hearing Lu Ming’s words, Jiu Han remained silent for a long ti, his pupils dilating, and his mouth slowly opening.
Looking at the small tower in Lu Ming’s hand, Jiu Han’s mind went blank.
He knew what the palm-sized Boshi Tower in Lu Ming’s hand ant…
That ant that Lu Ming’s proficiency in array formations had already far surpassed his! Only then could Lu Ming use the power of the array formation to compress the size of the Boshi Tower to such an extent—sothing Jiu Han himself could not achieve in the past.
As for what Lu Ming said later, Jiu Han did not pay much attention to it.
So much so that he overlooked another key point.
Lu Ming knew that the divinity of Shu Fang had entered a dormant state.
This was knowledge that Jiu Han had not taught Lu Ming.
This also ant that Lu Ming had already read the experint report he had left behind and had even begun the analysis of the divinity.
After a long while, Jiu Han finally took the Boshi Tower from Lu Ming.
Placing the Boshi Tower in front of him, Jiu Han earnestly examined the array formation structure on top.
The intricate formation structure confird Jiu Han’s speculation—his disciple had indeed surpassed him in the Dao of array formations.
This was because there were many array patterns that even Jiu Han could not understand…
“You… you…”
At this mont, Jiu Han could not even speak properly.
Lu Ming, on the other hand, understood what Jiu Han ant. He said humbly, “Before, 1 relied on extraordinary strength as my foundation, neglecting the study of array formations. After Teacher left, 1 dedicated myself to studying the Dao of array formations and discovered the subtleties and joys within.”
“It seems that my talent in array formations is not bad… and it led to the current situation…”
As he spoke, Lu Ming almost could not make up any more excuses.
The growth in the path of array formations depended on ticulous effort.
Learning, practicing, spending ti studying and pondering, with no room for shortcuts!
And Lu Ming’s performance was clearly a bit exaggerated.
Exaggerated to the point of being unrealistic.
Jiu Han sighed.
How could he not know that Lu Ming had a big secret?
The speed of cultivation could still be explained by talent, but the growth rate of the Dao of Array Formations was absolutely inexplicable by any talent.
After a mont, Jiu Han suddenly spoke, “Don’t ntion this to anyone, especially here.”
After Lu Ming nodded, Jiu Han added, “There is a great demand for experts in array formations here now. If the Subversives find out about your formation abilities, it may not be a good thing.”
At this point, Jiu Han seed to recall sothing and continued, “By the way, since you’re here, help take a look at how to integrate this array formation and what materials should be used to maximize its effectiveness.”
As he spoke, Jiu Han waved his hand and constructed a formation using source power.
With a simple glance, Lu Ming quickly grasped the principles of the array formation.
“This is a purification formation, seemingly used for purifying source power. If I were to set up this formation, I would choose Dark Crystal Cinnabar as the
main material…”
Lu Ming explained eloquently, and Jiu Han listened attentively, nodding.
After Lu Ming finished speaking, he asked, “By the way, Teacher, about that god…”
“I understand!” Jiu Han suddenly clapped his hands and interrupted Lu Ming.
He turned to look at Lu Ming and patted his shoulder heavily, “You stay here for now. I suddenly thought of sothing. We’ll talk when 1 co back.”
With that, Jiu Han turned into smoke and dissipated without a trace.
This left Lu Ming, who remained on the spot, completely bewildered…
He wanted to tell Jiu Han many things.
Among them, Boshi Tower and his proficiency in array formations were just the least important aspects.
Unexpectedly, Teacher Jiu Han seed to be very busy. He had just initiated the conversation, and then he went off to attend to other matters.
Lu Ming had so much to tell Jiu Han but he had to hold back his words now.
“I’ve already analyzed that divinity…”
Muttering these words, Lu Ming suddenly shrugged.
“Alright, we can talk about these things later..”
