I Have a Compass for Opportunity

Bu Moying initially didn’t think Liou Yuan would be that Array Master.

After all, Canglan Sword Liou Yuan of the Five Extremes Mountain is known for his swordsmanship.

Those who are passionate about swords hardly have the leisure to study the path of arrays.

Bu Moying instinctively assumed that the Array Master was someone else and was just about to ask.

Standing at the door, Liou Yuan was already cheerfully complimenting Bu Moying: "As expected of the top disciple of the Qingxiao Sect."

"Mr. Bu was able to break through the Cold River Illusionary Water Array I personally hosted in half an hour; there are few arrays below Foundation Establishment that can trap you."

"It was you who set up this array." Bu Moying was startled to realize that the person before him was the Array Master who set up the formation.

"Indeed, it’s not yet perfected. The time was too short. Give me some time to enhance its power by another level," Liou Yuan said, brimming with self-satisfaction.

He concealed his own cultivation level, worried that the higher-ups of the Five Extremes Mountain would notice something amiss with the speed of his advancement, risking the exposure of his Star Acupoint secret.

But there was no need to hide his talent in array formation at all.

Holding the status of an Array Master means respect and hospitality wherever you go, sparing many troubles.

As he spoke, Liou Yuan even suggested, "If Mr. Bu is interested, you are welcome to come again once I’ve finished setting it up."

He set up the illusion, and Bu Moying saw through it.

The two tussled for half an hour, and seeing the number one expert among the Qingxiao Sect’s younger generation being spun around in circles by his array, he couldn’t be happier.

In high spirits, he invited Bu Moying to return after he completed the Golden Essence Breaking Mountain Array.

Bu Moying immediately tossed Liou Yuan’s words aside and focused intently on the young man before him.

This was the sibling of the Snow Shattering Sword, a Five Extremes Mountain prodigy with five Star Acupoints, both adept in swordsmanship and having the skill to delve into array formations, with considerable array mastery.

"Young heroes emerge, and though I’m a few years senior to Mr. Liou, when it comes to talent, I am not your equal," Bu Moying sighed sincerely.

Before Liou Yuan could respond to Bu Moying’s words.

The latter voiced the speech he had prepared along the way.

Speaking of the difficulties Qingbao County endured without the Mountain Protection Array.

The Qingxiao Sect now suffers heavy losses, and if measures aren’t taken to stop them, it might fall to a third-rate sect.

Even if not for the Qingxiao Sect, for the sake of the city folks, Liou Yuan must help in repairing the Mountain Protection Array.

"If Mr. Liou can repair the Mountain Protection Array, the Qingxiao Sect will greatly reward you."

Liou Yuan had already intended to find Bu Moying to discuss the matter of the Foundation Establishment Array.

Now that the latter came seeking him, Liou Yuan displayed his array cultivation partly for this reason.

But now that Bu Moying proactively approached him, Liou Yuan was in no hurry.

He was currently short on money, and Bu Moying’s words about the residents for the city’s sake didn’t concern him.

Only the part about the Qingxiao Sect’s "great reward" was music to his ears.

With a hearty laugh, he nodded in agreement to Bu Moying’s invitation: "Words of great reward are too polite! The sect has commanded us to assist your sect in eradicating demon cultivators."

"If this array can be repaired, it will also save us a lot of trouble."

Verbally, he agreed to Bu Moying’s request, but since Liou Yuan hadn’t dealt with Foundation Establishment Arrays before, he contemplated for a moment to prevent making a fool of himself, advising Bu Moying.

"The Foundation Establishment Array is no small matter. I’m not adept enough to confidently guarantee its repair; I can only try. If it doesn’t work out, Mr. Bu, please don’t mock me."

Bu Moying was anxious, seeing how young Liou Yuan was and held doubts about his ability to repair the Mountain Protection Array.

After all, an Array Master unlike in Alchemy Dao or Artifact Refining needs years of accumulation to become a formidable Array Master.

Looking across Jiuli State, those who could set up Foundation Establishment Arrays had spent no less than sixty years mastering the art.

Yet now, Bu Moying had no other options and grasped even the smallest ray of hope.

Listening to Liou Yuan’s tone, he felt reassured.

"He didn’t directly refuse, which suggests he’s reasonably confident, even if only two or three parts; he must be given a chance."

Upon this thought, Bu Moying no longer hesitated and gestured invitingly to Liou Yuan.

"This concerns the safety of everyone in the city. There’s no time to delay. Mr. Liou, come with me to the Qingxiao Sect."

"Alright! Let me first inform several senior brothers." Liou Yuan nodded and returned to the courtyard before leaving, finding Jia Panshan still meditating and recovering.

He first informed Jia Panshan that Bu Moying had come to request his presence to inspect the Foundation Establishment Array.

Then he shared some brief controls of the Cold River Illusionary Water Array, so that during his absence, Jia Panshan could temporarily host the array.

"Mr. Liou is going to repair that Foundation Establishment Array?" Jia Panshan wasn’t foolish; his first reaction was that Liou Yuan was going to repair it, and steady as he was, found himself looking at Liou Yuan with astonishment.

The Foundation Establishment Array is far more profound and complex than an array of the Qi Cultivation Realm.

Many on the Five Extremes Mountain could set up arrays of the Peak of Qi Cultivation, but those capable of setting up Foundation Establishment Arrays were less than three, even counting the Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators of the Inner Sect.

"Mr. Jia, don’t look at me like that; I can’t guarantee success in repairing it. It’s just that since Mr. Bu has requested, I must at least take a look," Liou Yuan casually responded to Jia Panshan. After speaking, he finished by adding, "When Mr. Tian returns, just tell him where I went."
