Chapter 135: Getting Stronger Every Day

“I can’t really see through him. Indeed, the heart of such a person is too calm. It’s too difficult to know what he’s thinking.”

Miao Yue looked at Jiang Lan helplessly.

“However, one thing is certain. He cares a lot about the topic of his master’s wife. It seems like really just has a good temperament and has yet to lose all emotions. He’s also quite concerned about his master. ”

Miao Yue then smiled again.

“I wonder if he will run to his master to ask him about this matter. I wonder what will happen if he asks.”

This was rather interesting.

Next, Miao Yue stopped thinking about it.

She would not pay too much attention to the younger generation.

However, she didn’t make things difficult for Jiang Lan.

If one did not go up this mountain, it would be too difficult for one to learn array formations. Basically, one would not be able to learn much.

One wouldn’t even be able to touch the tip of the iceberg.

This hill could be considered to be a place where it helped to lay one’s foundations.

However, she didn’t know where Jiang Lan could reach in six months.

She had casually said that Jiang Lan needed to reach the top.

It was not impossible to reach the summit in six months, but it was difficult.

Not to mention it was someone like Jiang Lan, who was a complete newbie.

The six months was just her putting a little pressure on Jiang Lan so that he would not relax.

Although his master had said that he was sensible and diligent, she still needed to press him a bit.

How could she be so nice?

She was different from the people of the Ninth Summit.

Miao Yue then left. She did not need to care about Jiang Lan for half a year.

Jiang Lan arrived at the small hill.

He looked at the stone tablet in front of the mountain and found two words on it: Rear Entrance.

He was brought here by Martial Aunt Miao Yue and did not see anyone along the way.

It seemed that not many people had entered this place.

Without any hesitation, he stepped in.

When he stepped onto the small hill, he felt as though he was standing on a huge mountain. It was difficult to see the peak when he looked up.

“This… Feels like a mystic realm.”

Looking at the mountain that was completely different from the previous slope, Jiang Lan was momentarily surprised.

However, there was indeed no danger here. There were traces of array formations everywhere.

It was truly a grand array formation.

Coming here to study was definitely much better than self-studying.

“I came to the right place.”

He was glad.

As expected, other than not being able to ask his master about how to raise his cultivation level, it was still good to tell his master about other things.

His master had many connections.

However, these were definitely favors.

He could not disappoint his master, nor was he willing to embarrass him.

There was a mountain road ahead. It should be the road to the top of the mountain.

When he stepped onto the mountain road, Jiang Lan felt his vision blur.

It was a maze array formation.

However, it was very simple. It couldn’t be any simpler.

Without any hesitation, he continued breaking the array formations on the path.

Following that, Jiang Lan encountered many more maze array formations. They were all very simple, but they were continuously becoming more complex, with new changes added to them one after another.

It was as if the changes were random.

He could not find any pattern.

“I’ve never seen this array formation before.”

Jiang Lan was confused when he saw the new changes.

He had read so many books on array formations.

But he had never met anything like this before.

Although the array formation still looked quite simple.

But he had never seen such an array formation.

After understanding it, he continued.

Half a year to reach the summit, he did not pay much attention to these words.

As long as there was a new change to the array formation, he would do his best to understand how it worked first.

If he could fully understand all the array formations in this mountain, he would willingly stay here for a year, let alone half a year.

After that, he would think of a way to seek guidance from Martial Aunt Miao Yue.

Jiang Lan had given up on improving his cultivation, spells and mental fortitude.

He planned to reach the top of this mountain first.

Perhaps this process was also beneficial to his mental state.

However, he soon remembered something else.

“I don’t think this is an ordinary place. I wonder what I can get if I sign in here.”

Yes, he could sign first.

However, he did not discover the path of the Great Dao on the Fifth Summit.

So far, only the entrance to the Netherworld and the Jade Pool had the path of the Great Dao.

“System, I will sign in here.”

[Ding!]

[Signed in successfully. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the gift of the Great Dao. You have obtained the spell, Mystic Arts.]

[Mystic Arts: With the user as the center, all eight directions surrounding the user will be opened up. The user can control the terrain, interchange yin and yang, move fire and water and generate wind and thunder.]

Jiang Lan took a look but didn’t pay much attention to it.

This looked similar to the Art of Divination.

It seemed like a formation, but it wasn’t.

Both of them had their own advantages, and it was hard to say which was better.

However, Jiang Lan didn’t intend to learn it now. He would learn it when he had time after the matters here were over.

He did not know the exact effect of the spell.

Looking at the introduction, there was a high probability that it acted as a form of support.

After that, Jiang Lan continued on his way up the hill. Along the way, he didn’t think about anything else. He was completely focused on the array formations.

He was not walking fast, but he was walking steadily.

The wind blew gently and the white clouds floated.

Jiang Lan looked at the clouds in the sky, his heart calm.

Understanding the array formations here really made him feel fulfilled.

Every time he understood a formation, he felt that he had become stronger. This place was completely different from him reading books on array formations by himself.

He could clearly feel that he was improving every day at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Walking on this hill, Jiang Lan felt as if he was walking on an endless sea of ice. With every step he took, the ice beneath his feet would melt, turning into seawater.

His goal was to turn this ice sea into a flowing ocean.

He felt an inexplicable joy fill his heart with every step he took.

This journey was very far, and his goal was big. He did not know how long it would take to complete it.

However, he would definitely go up bit by bit and reach the peak.

There was no need to stop and neither did he think about stopping.

It was just like cultivation. He would read the books on cultivation insights and not waste time. He would understand how to make himself stronger.

One shouldn’t bite off more than one can chew.

The road ahead was steady, and the road behind was not narrow.

When one was seriously learning, one would always feel the lack of time.

A month later, Jiang Lan was faced with a difficult problem—a concealed array formation.

He had never come into contact with this before, but he felt that he could understand it.

But he needed more time.

He took out a portion of Dao Comprehension Tea and placed it into his mouth.

This was the time to use the Dao Comprehension Tea.

With the Dao Comprehension Tea, he would be able to comprehend the array formations here faster.

Of course, he had to work hard himself too.

In just a day, Jiang Lan had solved the difficult problem. With the effects of the Dao Comprehension Tea, he advanced step by step.

This time, he split the Dao Comprehension Tea into pieces and put them into his mouth.

This allowed the effects to last longer, enabling him to gain more insights.

Four months passed in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Lan didn’t know how far he had walked, but he knew that he had stepped on countless array formations beneath his feet and he now had a much better understanding regarding array formations now.

He felt that once he reached the peak of this hill, he might be able to understand them even more clearly.

Jiang Lan placed another piece of tea leaf into his mouth and continued his journey up the hill.

He was in a sorry state because the journey was not easy.

However, he had obtained a lot.

He did not feel bitter. Instead, he felt happy.

He still wasn’t in a hurry. No matter how hard it was, no matter how much time it took, he wasn’t anxious or impetuous.

Even if he were to encounter an extremely simple formation, he would not ignore it, much less be blinded by his pride.

He would advance up slowly, step by step.

Jiang Lan was working hard, but there was already an uproar at the foot of the mountain.

“Damn, who is this person? Why is his ranking so high? He appeared out of nowhere.”
