After taking notes and managing the Qing Ming House’s gains, Ling Xian went into isolation.
Though he calls it isolation, he was actually just enlightening himself with the immortal’s inheritances and training himself with the various techniques. After he was done with his isolation, his life became very much relaxed.
Other than what he must do daily, such as enlightening himself and training, he would spend time looking at the mountains, the rivers, and enjoying himself.
When he’s free, he would run to the highest peak and stare at the moon and the cloud. If he is really bored, he would drink by himself and sing to the moon.
He felt extremely relaxed and happy with these simple days that were drama free and weapon free.
Plus, he was now the leader hidden behind the Ao Xian House, everyone treated him like he was the mighty God and were treating him with the utmost respect. Thus, every time anyone sees him, they would respectfully greet him with
senior brother.
Because of all this, his normally determined and ambitious mind and heart turned somewhat lazy.
He was very satisfied with his current way of living and he did not want to change it.
At the very least, he had no intention of changing it in the short term.
He has been cultivating for many years. In the beginning, he was a meditational ant, and now, he was a completion leveled powerhouse. He has met with countless powerful opponents and overcame many obstacles.
Everyone looks at his apparent powerfulness and glory but ignored the sweat and blood that he shed behind the scenes. Throughout this difficult journey, he has been tense the entire time and never even dared to relax.
This was why he was really enjoying this relaxing time.
After all, he was well aware that he will soon return to his busy life and busy days. Therefore, he should really just indulge himself now and live day by day.
Thus, he stopped thinking about any problems related to cultivation and instead, completely drowned himself in fun and recreational activities.
Even the daily training sessions were now being skipped. At this time in his journey, he was stuck at another bottleneck, thus training wasn’t going to do much good anyway.
Just like that, time passed little by little.
The Ao Xian House’s citizens very often catch glimpses of him showing up in the bamboo forest, in rivers, and like a nomadic cultivator, he was living freely and living without rules.
This made everyone inside the Ao Xian House very helpless. Especially to those who were busy dealing with day to day tasks, Chu Zhong Tian and Huang Er – they were even more helpless.
The Ao Xian House today was a newly formed force and there were many things to be dealt with. Though there was nothing major, there were a bunch of minor issues to be attended to. Every one of these issues required a decision maker.
Yet at this time, Ling Xian, their leader, was not managing this place at all. All he did these days was travel and explore the area and enjoy himself. He had thrown everything to his two subordinates.
How could they not feel helpless as a result?
However, including those two, everyone merely felt helpless. None of them were blaming him.
Because everyone knew that the reason why they had what they had, was because of Ling Xian. If it weren’t for him, they would’ve all died the moment the Qing Ming House invaded the City of Sin. How could they be living the luxurious life they were living now?
Especially Chu Zhong Tian and Huang Er, these two were even more appreciative towards Ling Xian.
The former was avenged by Ling Xian, which basically meant Ling Xian granted Chu Zhong Tian his second life.
The latter was because Ling Xian changed his destiny. From an unimportant cultivator, he was able to grow to someone in power. One has to say that without Ling Xian, Huang Er would not have today’s glory!
Thus, despite their helplessness, they remained respectful and managed their home on his behalf.
Because of this, Ling Xian’s life became even easier.
He didn’t have to think about anything, he didn’t need to manage anything, all he had to do was have fun and enjoy himself.
Life went on like this for around a year. After a year, his lazy lifestyle finally came to an end. Because the Immortal of Array had finally finished making the array that will bury the City of Sin.
In other words, he was about to re-enter his busy life.
This made Ling Xian, who was watching the sunset at a mountain peak, feel very helpless. However, he knew very well that if he continued to stay, he would just get lazier.
Plus, during these lazy day, he had much to gain. For one, his mentality improved greatly. He was now even calmer and even more collected.
For two, his temperament was now even more extraordinary. He was basically the same as an immortal who lived the mortal life start to finish.
Other than these two aspects, his biggest gain was that his clone has now reached the same level of cultivation as his original self. In other words, he could now try to use his clone to breakthrough to the completion level.
These three aspects were enough for him. What’s there not to be happy about?
However, in regards to breaking through – Ling Xian doesn’t have much confidence, thus he didn’t dare to try and attempt it.
Even though failing wouldn’t hurt his original self, he only had one clone after all. So of course he needed to gain a certain level of confidence before attempting.
Plus, the array was now complete, he had no time to think about his breakthrough.
Let’s go. After I bury the City of Sin, I will think about the breakthrough.
Ling Xian mumbled to himself on top of the mountain peak. In a flash, he entered the Painting of the Nine Immortals.
The moment he appeared, he saw that the Immortal of Array and the Immortal of Crafts were already standing there prepared. Each one of them was holding onto a golden array board.
Seeing this, Ling Xian greeted,
A pleasure to see you two.
No need for such etiquette.
The Immortal of Array asked him to rise and did not waste another word before handing him the array board.
This array board was designed by me and made by the Immortal of Crafts. I have named it the Heaven Shadowing Array.
The Array of Immortal grinned, his old face flickered with pride.
It was obvious that he was very confident about the array he designed.
The Heaven Shadowing Array?
Hearing this very dominating name, Ling Xian was a little startled and then complimented,
What a dominating name.
Haha, of course.
Duan Shan He guffawed and praised,
this array was made through the teamwork of two immortals. Not naming it something nice would not have done our identities justice.
Go away. I designed this array, it has nothing to do with you.
The Immortal of Array glared at Duan Shan He and refused to admit that he helped.
Screw you! Without my abilities, how would you have been able to melt together the materials? How would you have multiplied this array’s abilities?
Duan Shan stared the other immortal down.
Feng Qing Ming proudly smiled.
You are merely a worker who works for me. I am the core of this array!
What a shameless old man! You dare to overlook my contribution!
The Immortal of Crafts was furious and hopped up and down out of anger.
At this, Ling Xian smiled helplessly and said,
Two immortals, the Heaven Shadowing Array was created by both of you. So both of you are vital in the formation of the array.
He originally wanted to talk it through with these two immortals and calm them down from arguing over who made more contribution. After all, they created the array together and both were essential.
However, hearing his words, the two immortals silenced.
Only after a while, did they finally speak in unison and said something that was full of blame.
The essential part of this array isn’t us, it’s you.
