Jiang Lan would focus on setting up the array formation when the sun rose and cultivate when the sun set.
Jiang Lan kept repeating the same routine.
In the fifth year, Jiang Lan completed the outer array formation and began to set up the inner array formation.
This was set up using his Senior Sister’s blood.
The array formation was more or less set up, but it didn’t have any power because it required his Senior Sister’s blood.
Otherwise, it would be easy for the heavenly tribulation to determine that there was an outsider helping her transcend the tribulation, making the process much more dangerous.
If outsiders could help one transcend one’s tribulation, no one from Kunlun would fail his or her tribulation.
Jiang Lan set up the internal array formation very slowly. He carved and connected every inscription bit by bit.
The closer he got to the Jade Pool, the more vigilant he needed to be. The strength of the Jade Pool not only lay in the water, but also in the soil.
And it wasn’t as stable as the outer perimeter of the Jade Pool.
However, once the setup was completed, there was no need to worry about the unstable power affecting the array formation.
At that time, the array formation would automatically adjust itself to prevent itself from being damaged.
This process took another five years.
Jiang Lan had already set up a large part of the array formation, and he would often see his Senior Sister in the water.
He had never peeked.
For ten whole years, his Senior Sister had never woken up, nor had she changed her posture. She had always been coiled in the water.
However, her strength had fluctuated a few times before.
Her strength had reached the realm of a perfected Void Refinement cultivator.
She was very close to the point of becoming an immortal.
In another twenty years, she might become an immortal.
He should be able to complete the array formation in five to ten years.
“I need to speed things up.”
Jiang Lan thought to himself that his Senior Sister only needed another twenty years before she was ready for the breakthrough.
However, she had a deep foundation and was also a dragon.
As she grew up, her cultivation would become faster and faster.
It was most likely that the time she would take would shrink from twenty to fifteen years.
At that time, if the array formation was yet to be completed, it would drag his Senior Sister down.
Furthermore, it was also unsuitable for him to complete it in a hurry. The array formation required experimentation and adjustments.
This was to ensure that the array formation would bring about the most help to his Senior Sister.
Besides, his Senior Sister had to know how to use it for it to be of aid to her.
Otherwise, it was just for show.
When setting up the internal array formation, he wanted to speed up the process, but he did not give up on the meticulousness from before.
Instead, he spent the first half of the night reading books on formations instead of cultivating.
This would allow him to understand more about array formations.
Another five years passed. Jiang Lan stood at the edge of the Jade Pool, looking at the array formations. It was almost done.
All that was left was the finishing touch.
“Very good. It should end in another year. I can complete it before Senior Sister comes out of seclusion.”
Then, he found out that he had a new problem.
If his Senior Sister still hadn’t come out of seclusion after he had completed his task, should he wait for her to come out of seclusion or go back first?
He then looked at his Senior Sister in the water. Jiang Lan felt that he should wait this time.
It was rare to see his Senior Sister come out of seclusion.
In the past, when he came out of seclusion, the first person he would see would be his Senior Sister.
The following year.
Jiang Lan retracted his hand.
The array formations were all completed.
This year was his sixteenth year at the Jade Pool.
According to his prediction previously, his Senior Sister would be ready for the breakthrough in another fourteen years. However, looking at it now, perhaps she only needed nine more years.
Fortunately, it was completed ahead of time.
This year, Jiang Lan entered the sect for 451 years and he was one step closer to achieving immortality on the surface.
His true cultivation level had also made considerable progress over the years.
Even though he had just been cultivating at the edge of the Jade Pool, it wasn’t inferior to him cultivating at the Netherworld Entrance at all. In fact, it was even better.
It was no wonder his Senior Sister had advanced so quickly. Her strength was also slightly stronger than ordinary dragons.
Since the array formations were completed, he would wait for his Senior Sister to come out of seclusion.
During this period of time, he could continue the cultivation routine he had when he was on the Ninth Summit.
He read books during the day and cultivated at night.
However, there were only books on array formations here.
Sometimes, he would also observe the Kunlun Mountains and try to comprehend the power of the world.
Perhaps it would help his Dao.
“It has been a long time since I watered the egg and plant.”
Jiang Lan suddenly recalled this matter.
Normally, when he was in seclusion, Xiao Yu would help to water them.
Now that he and Xiao Yu were here, whether or not they would be watered all depended on his master’s mood.
However, such a circumstance happened quite often. They were still alive up until now, so this time, they should be able to make it through.
Jiang Lan then began cultivating.
He wasn’t in a hurry. He tempered his body step by step, slowly increasing his strength.
His constant effort did not let him down.
He was becoming stronger day by day.
Although he could not see any results, this was how cultivation was. A small accumulation every day would one day show great results.
Over 450 years had passed in this manner.
After a few years.
Jiang Lan, who originally had his eyes closed, suddenly woke up.
He looked in the direction of the main hall.
At this moment, a beam of light shot into the sky, illuminating the entire sky.
It was the light from the Kunlun Main Hall.
“Did something happen again?”
He had waited for his Senior Sister for four years.
A total of twenty years.
It was time for his Senior Sister to come out of seclusion.
Arriving at the edge of the Jade Pool, Jiang Lan saw Ao Longyu about to surface.
It looked like she was about to exit seclusion.
Before sunset.
Jiang Lan saw Ao Longyu move her body before she lifted her head to reveal herself.
Then, she slowly got up.
The Jade Pool’s water flowed down Ao Longyu’s body without stopping on her clothes.
At this moment, Xiao Yu saw Jiang Lan who was looking at her at the side of the Jade Pool.
She was shocked and subconsciously moved.
Splash!
She hid behind Jiang Lan.
“Junior Brother really knows how to peek. Did I catch you?”
It was Xiao Yu’s voice. His Senior Sister seemed to have become softer in an instant.
Jiang Lan looked back and saw that it was indeed Xiao Yu who was breathing heavily.
He was stunned for a moment.
Of course, if the other party was an enemy, he would kill him before he was stunned.
He would not give the other party a chance to get behind him.
“Senior Sister is going to transcend your tribulation?” Jiang Lan didn’t answer the question of peeking.
Wasn’t he looking at her openly? How was this considered peeking?
“Has Junior Brother finished setting up the array formations?” Xiao Yu looked around.
“It’s been four years.” Jiang Lan nodded slightly.
“I can indeed transcend the tribulation in a few more years.” Xiao Yu looked up at Jiang Lan and said.
“I’ll protect Junior Brother from now on.”
Jiang Lan envisaged his Senior Sister who was about to become an immortal facing the enemy of a Heaven Immortal…
If that happened, his Senior Sister would definitely obediently run behind him.
Then, she would thicken her skin and say, “Junior Brother, you will protect me this time, I’ll do it the next time.”
Would it be like this?
The skin of a dragon was indeed quite thick.
“Senior Sister, you should familiarize yourself with the array formation before preparing to transcend the tribulation.” As Jiang Lan spoke, he began to guide Xiao Yu in injecting her strength into the array formation.
He also informed her of the effects of the array formation.
The external array formation had offensive power and the Dragon Soaring Art.
The interior array formation mainly focused on defenses. There was a Hundred Protection Shield.
“There are a total of nine heavenly tribulations. Senior Sister can use Dragon Soaring Art to break through the first to the third heavenly tribulations. From the fourth to the sixth, you can use the Hundred Protection Shield to block them.
The sixth attack should not be able to be completely blocked. Senior Sister can only rely on yourself for the rest.
There shouldn’t be any problems. Logically speaking, even without any array formations, Senior Sister should be able to safely tide through the tribulation. The array formations just makes the process easier for Senior Sister.” Jiang Lan said.
Xiao Yu listened by the side and nodded her head without any intention of rebutting.
Her lips carried a smile.
It was not because her Junior Brother had praised her, but because he had told her so much.
And he’d done so much.
He had been setting up array formations for her for decades.
Over forty years of hard work, starting from exploring the Jade Pool, then thinking about how to create an array formation, gathering materials, and finally setting up an array formation.
He had only used a single sentence to make her feel more relaxed.
He had never mentioned anything about the hardship.
“Junior Brother, I suddenly discovered something.” After Xiao Yu figured out the array formation and infused her power into it, she stood in front of Jiang Lan and spoke seriously.
“Is there a loophole in the array formations?” Jiang Lan asked.
He hadn’t discovered it yet, but he was still confused.
“No, I realized that being a Goddess is especially good. Because I can be with Junior Brother. “Xiao Yu smiled brightly at Jiang Lan..
