Zhong Lingxin's alchemy skills relied entirely on her talent.
In terms of control over flames, she is less than one-tenth as good as Zhong Chun.
While teaching Zhong Lingxin how to control the flames, Zhong Chun explained the wonders of the time array to her: "The higher the level of alchemy and weapon crafting, the more time-consuming it becomes. When you refine super-grade immortal pills or divine pills, it can take decades to refine just one batch. At this point, using the time array will save you a lot of time and effort."
Zhong Lingxin looked at the dense array engraved on the purple-gold glazed cauldron and asked Zhong Chun, "Didn't you engrave a time array on this glazed cauldron?"
Zhong Chun glanced at Zhong Lingxin with a frustrated expression: "Of course I used it, but you haven't mastered the time array yet."
It's pointless for you to use it.
What I mean is, you need to learn time arrays.
No, there's also a spatial array.
Master alchemists and weapon refiners must be proficient in both of these formations.
"Forget it, it's no use telling you now. Your Immortal Spirit Continent doesn't have it. You can only use it after you ascend."
Zhong Lingxin memorized the time array and the space array.
Who says she's useless now?
She could talk to the Celestial Dao.
Perhaps, with time and space arrays, she could train those silly kids on Dragon Island sooner.
She can finish her task sooner.
Zhong Chun led Zhong Lingxin on a tour of the entire alchemy room, and pointed to two rows of bookshelves, telling Zhong Lingxin, "These are all the pill formulas I collected in my early years. I don't know if they can still be used in the current immortal realm."
Keep it; you'll need it when you ascend to immortality.
There are also fourth and fifth floors.
Last time in the Luofeng Mountains, I suffered because I couldn't see outside.
I estimate that you can only see outside from the fifth floor.
"At your cultivation speed, you might ascend to immortality by the time you reach the fifth floor."
Zhong Lingxin nodded; that was her assessment as well.
Once outside the Nine-Story Pagoda, Zhong Lingxin called upon the Celestial Spirit Heavenly Dao.
The Celestial Dao quickly responded to Zhong Lingxin: "The time array and space array you mentioned can only be mastered by those skilled in both time and space. You don't possess either of those skills."
Zhong Lingxin nodded. She was a follower of the Free and Unfettered Path and indeed did not know the Paths of Time and Space.
But she felt that these two were very powerful.
The Celestial Spirit Heavenly Dao was quite frustrated: "These two paths are indeed powerful, but not as powerful as you think. Just like the Five Elements, there are three thousand Great Daos, each with its own interactions. You cultivators are just greedy, never satisfied with your own path, always looking at other people's paths as better. If you ask me, if you cultivate your own path to its peak, you will be no less powerful than these two paths."
Zhong Lingxin nodded, but still explained to the Immortal Spirit Heavenly Dao, "You know my servant Zhong Chun, right? He came from the Immortal Realm."
He gave me an alchemy furnace, with a spacetime array engraved inside.
According to him, great alchemists and weapon refiners in the immortal realm must master both space-time formations; otherwise, refining eighth- or ninth-grade immortal pills and artifacts would take many years, which would be exhausting.
Upon hearing this, the Celestial Dao tossed two jade slips to Zhong Lingxin: "What you say makes sense. These are the Daos of Time and Space. Take a look. Since the Celestial Continent lost its guardians, I've put away several Daos, fearing they might accidentally fall into the hands of outsiders. If you find a suitable candidate, pass them on."
Zhong Lingxin was overjoyed: "Great! I'll go back to Dragon Island tomorrow and see if any of those idiots know these two skills. If they do, I'll pass them on."
The celestial beings and the heavenly Dao are too lazy to pay attention to Zhong Lingxin.
He knew that what Zhong Lingxin longed for most was to complete the mission as soon as possible and no longer have to deal with him, the Heavenly Dao.
Honestly, what's wrong with dealing with him!
When has he ever wronged her?
Even this time when the phoenix was born, it was because he saw her phoenix zither that he specially dug out the phoenix egg.
Honestly, that woman doesn't appreciate his feelings at all, and she's always trying to get rid of him.
The next day, Zhong Lingxin transformed into the appearance of a young male cultivator and slipped out of the Qingyun Sect again, heading to Dragon Island.
Under the management of the Long family, Long Island has become increasingly prosperous.
Zhong Lingxin's beloved child gave birth to many more children.
The children ranged in age from their early twenties to their very first steps.
Zhong Lingxin carried the pills and spiritual food, distributing them along the way, as if she were a grandmother. Even her walking posture unconsciously slowed down a bit.
Long Xinglan and Long Ling'er couldn't help but laugh when they saw Zhong Lingxin's actions.
They hadn't seen their master for decades and missed him terribly.
Long Ling'er is currently at the late stage of the Integration Realm, making her the most powerful cultivator in the Long family.
Long Xinglan was an extremely competent clan leader, managing Dragon Island exceptionally well.
However, both Long Ling'er and Long Xinglan have a worry on their minds lately.
As soon as the two saw Zhong Lingxin, they took her to the high mountain outside Flying Dragon City.
On the high mountain, a formation was slowly being repaired.
Long Ling'er said worriedly, "Master, we've calculated it repeatedly, and this might be a teleportation array. We don't know where we'll be teleported to, or what will be teleported in. Master, I remember you said that our ancestors often exchanged and learned from the guardians of other realms. Do you think this teleportation array might be the one our ancestors used to travel and communicate with other realms?"
Long Xinglan continued, "Master, back then, our ancestors destroyed the teleportation array and sealed off Dragon Island, which prevented the demons from entering. What I fear is that if the demons are still persistent and guard outside the teleportation array, they might teleport in as soon as it is restored. We are still too weak to resist them!"
Zhong Lingxin nodded.
The Immortal Continent is a blessed land; it's rare to find such a blessed land among millions of worlds.
Now that the demons have discovered such a blessed land, there's no reason why they wouldn't covet it.
Perhaps they have someone guarding outside the teleportation array, waiting for it to be restored before they storm Dragon Island.
Long Ling'er said worriedly, "Master, we've tried many methods to stop the teleportation array from reactivating, but nothing has worked. Even if we blow it up, it reactivates in a couple of days. Master, what should we do?"
Long Xinglan also looked at Zhong Lingxin: "Master, I know that the teleportation array will be restored sooner or later. As long as we Long family members take on the responsibility of protecting the Immortal Spirit Continent, we will definitely be able to contact the outside world. But we hope that the teleportation array will be restored slowly, so that our cultivation can be improved a bit more. As for the demons, let alone them guarding outside, once our cultivation is up, I will definitely kill my way to the Demon Star."
Long Ling'er nodded repeatedly: "Master, Xinglan, the other elders and I have discussed it."
We remember your words, Master: offense is the best defense.
We can't keep taking hits. We have to fight back.
Zhong Lingxin really liked the fighting spirit that Long Ling'er and Long Xinglan had.
However, they are still too weak right now, and they might be instantly killed by the enemy as soon as they step out the door.
She thought for a moment and said, "There is a time array that can speed up or slow down the flow of time. Only those who are skilled in the Dao of Time can cultivate it. I wonder if your Long family has anyone skilled in the Dao of Time and Space? If so, you can create a time-slowing array for the teleportation array, so that the teleportation array will be repaired more slowly."
