Patrol Heaven Warship.
The true Sect Anchoring Divine Artifact!
This is the pinnacle creation achieved by integrating Artifact Refining and Formation skill.
To place a Mountain Protection Array, which would usually only be used at a power's headquarters, onto a "Magical Treasure" like the Patrol Heaven Warship, is what establishes a great sect's reputation as a dominant force sweeping through various domains.
The strength of a sect is not determined by how powerful you are individually, but by whether you can effectively strike the opponent and possess the capability to destroy them.
If you can't eliminate or even strike at your opponent, then no matter how strong you are, the opponent can just close up and live their own life, still not needing to take you too seriously.
And the Patrol Heaven Warship...
It is key to realizing the long-range delivery of warfare and the destruction of sects and nations.
You see, most sects are tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions and millions of miles apart from each other.
Some more distant sects, like the Nine Cauldrons Sect and the Limitless Star Palace, are even tens of millions of miles apart.
In such a scenario, if Great Cultivators using treasures fly over, just the journey alone would consume thousands to tens of thousands of Spirit Stones, and mobilizing a thousand or so people to make the trip would use up tens of millions of Spirit Stones.
Not to mention reaching the opponent's territory. Every location there is protected by a Formation, and how long would it take to break through those?
How long can the carried Spirit Stones, elixirs, and replenishment materials sustain the consumption?
Especially during life-and-death battles, the True Yuan in a cultivator's body would deplete rapidly, and some Great Technique Cultivators could even exhaust their True Yuan with just one or two techniques. At that moment, the difference between having and not having a base becomes apparent.
Those on the enemy's side can recover in peace within their Formation.
But those on our side must be constantly vigilant for sneak attacks from Sword Cultivators while they recover their True Yuan at the back.
Of course, the Stellar Power Field provided by Body Cultivation can offer some degree of protection, but how can that measure up to the enemy's Formations built into their cities?
Unless the disparity between the two sides is so great that it can create an overwhelming effect, fighting on the enemy's home ground means that even the mightiest cultivator will be dragged and exhausted to death by the enemy through countless means.
In such circumstances, the Patrol Heaven Warship with its own Formation becomes extremely valuable.
Wherever the Patrol Heaven Warship stops, it's like a city, like a sect's gate.
Plus, with the inherent carrying capacity of the Patrol Heaven Warship itself, the opponent's hope of utilizing home turf Formation advantages to exhaust or wear us down becomes wishful thinking.
The war between the two sects will thus become a real battle for the annihilation of a sect.
...
"Patrol Heaven Warship."
Li Qingshan murmured these four words.@@@@
If the Nine Cauldrons Sect could have Patrol Heaven Warships...
No need for too many, just two or three, and it's not an exaggeration to say that other sects like Xuanming Sect, Dayue Dynasty, Star Sea Sect, Ancient Immortal Sect, and White Jade Sect, those medium and small powers, would definitely quieten down immediately.
Because once they dared to provoke the Nine Cauldrons Sect again, what they might face is not just a simple defeat, but...
Annihilation of their sect.
However...
"Wait a little longer!"
Li Qingshan said, "On one hand... the other industries in our sect still lack a bit of maturity; on the other hand, Alkaid Chief probably doesn't yet have the capability to refine a Patrol Heaven Warship..."
"Then could we get the refining materials related to the Patrol Heaven Warship for Alkaid Chief to review?"
Zhao Siliang suggested.
Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire
"I understand; we will make preparations,"
Zhao Siliang nodded earnestly.
The thought of Limitless Star Palace cruising over their heads in Patrol Heaven Warships...
Was something they did not want to endure a second time, no matter what.
...
The brief report continued for a while and came to an end.
Next, under Li Qingshan's orders, all the fourth-level Array Masters proficient in Spirit Gathering Arrays went to Nine Heavens Domain. Under Alkaid's guidance, they began to learn the advanced methods of arranging the Fourth Generation Spirit Gathering Arrays.
Alkaid...
was diligently teaching them.
And he returned to Dragon Majestic City, allowing them to carry out practical operations on those closed Fourth-Level Spirit Gathering Arrays in Dragon Majestic City.
This process lasted for half a year.
In that half-year, although the production work at Purple Cloud Courtyard was affected, two more teams of Artifact Sect Grandmasters were summoned to assist, and they managed to complete three rounds of deliveries.
The profits from the new deliveries...
Alkaid continued to pour into [Formation].
Thus, the Array Masters who learned from Alkaid felt almost every day that Alkaid had new ideas emerging, and his understanding of formations was changing daily.
Even the improved Fourth-Level Fourth Generation Spirit Gathering Arrays seemed to be gradually evolving towards the Fifth Generation formations.
This astonishing speed of learning caused a huge impact on others' progress and deeply made these Array Masters realize just how vast the gap was between them and a true genius.
During this period, some Array Masters were greatly affected.
Yet, some Array Masters, after learning the advanced concepts taught by Alkaid, directly achieved a leap in rank, advancing from Third Level to Fourth Level, with a few even jumping from Fourth to Fifth Level.
Suddenly, the Energy Department of Dragon Majestic City, which had been closed, was filled with a learning atmosphere.
This area quietly became seen as a sacred land by those specializing in Spirit Gathering Array Masters, inspiring many of them to successfully continue their paths.
It was after many Array Masters had almost learned how to arrange the nearly Fifth Generation level Spirit Gathering Arrays that Alkaid suddenly found Zhao Siliang again.
And he took him directly to a Fifth-Level Spirit Gathering Array.
...
"As everyone knows, this node of spiritual energy has been exhausted... Due to the continuous use of the Spirit Gathering Array, it has destroyed the original structure of this area, causing space to compress and fold. The spiritual energy that originally seeped through these cracks became untraceable by an ordinary Fifth-Level Spirit Gathering Array due to spatial changes, but..."
Alkaid addressed the newly arrived Zhao Siliang, Huang Wei, Wu Xunzhen, including Purple Rose, and Feng Yugong who had become a Fifth-Level Array Master, pointing ahead, "Look..."
"This..."
Huang Wei looked at the slowly operating Spirit Gathering Array "It's producing Spirit Stones again?"
"It's quite simple. I've improved this Fifth-Level Spirit Gathering Array so that it can penetrate deeply into the interior of space, thereby drawing out the spiritual energy from this compressed and folded space to condense into Spirit Stones,"
Alkaid explained, "According to the description of the characteristics of Third Generation Fifth-Level Spirit Gathering Arrays by other sects—capable of drawing out spiritual energy from slightly folded spaces, my improved array directly embeds into the interior of space to extract spiritual energy, not only is it more efficient but also more stable, it can be considered a two-generation leap."
He paused for a moment, summarizing his speech: "Through such an improvement, we have managed a shortcut to advancement, optimizing the technique for Fourth-Generation Fifth-Level Spirit Gathering Arrays! From now on, some of the abandoned nodes that are not overly compressed or folded can be reactivated!"
After listening to Alkaid's explanation...
Zhao Siliang, Huang Wei, and others were dumbstruck.
