Lin Yitang nodded, indicating that she understood the key points of breaking the formation. With Senior Brother Liu's careful demonstrations several times, she gradually mastered some basic methods of breaking the formation.

Seeing how quickly she was learning, Senior Brother Liu took out an exquisite jade slip from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Yitang. "This is the detailed method for setting up the Spirit Gathering Array. I've recorded it all in here. If you still have any questions, feel free to ask me."

Lin Yitang accepted the jade slip and thanked him gratefully.

She pondered for a moment, then took out an array plate from her storage bag. This array plate was a gift given to her by True Monarch Huan Yue, the peak master of the Array Weapon Peak, during her disciple-acceptance ceremony.

She asked, "Senior brother, can you help me identify what kind of formation this is?"

Senior Brother Liu took the array plate, examined it carefully, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He said, "This is a very powerful defensive array, at least a high-level array. There's also my master's mark on it. It must have been given to you by my master, right?"

"If that's the case, then you're in for a treat. If you encounter danger outside, activate this formation, and even a Golden Core cultivator won't be able to harm you. This is a top-tier defensive formation. With my master's skill, this formation plate can last for years without breaking. Make good use of it."

Lin Yitang nodded and put away the array plate.

After thanking his senior brother, he suddenly remembered something, took out a yellowed array diagram from his storage bag, and said:

"Senior brother, take a look at this. I obtained this array diagram by chance a few days ago, but I really can't understand it. Can you help me figure out what kind of array it is?"

She was actually quite helpless. Generally, such opportunities are not meant to be known by outsiders, lest they be spied on. But she couldn't figure it out herself, so she had to seek help from a professional array cultivator.

Senior Brother Liu knew about her swordsmanship after the last team training session, but he hadn't told anyone about it, so he must be a reliable person. That's why I decided to ask him for help.

However, when Senior Brother Liu took the array diagram and looked at it closely, his eyes widened and his mouth opened involuntarily. His breathing became rapid, and his hands trembled slightly.

"This...this is...the Heavenly Net Formation!"

His voice trembled slightly with excitement, "This is a legendary, unparalleled formation! It's said that once this formation is activated, it's an inescapable net, with nowhere to hide! It's a top-tier trapping formation!"

"I never expected you to have such an opportunity. This is incredibly lucky! With this formation, as long as an ambush is set up, no one can escape from it!"

Lin Yitang was also stunned. She vaguely remembered that this array diagram was given to her by the disciples of the Tianyin Sect; she never expected it to be such a treasure! She excitedly asked, "Really?"

But then he sighed and lamented, "It's a pity I didn't have time to learn formations, so I can't set up formations."

Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Liu quickly comforted her, "It's alright, Junior Sister Tang. There are so many people in this world who don't know formations, and even geniuses don't know all four arts. Junior Sister is already at the top level in the path of magic cultivation, so there's no need to be so discouraged."

“However, junior sister, this array diagram is far too precious for us to be passed on to others. If you are willing, could you sell it to the Array Weapon Peak? If so, I will go and communicate with the Array Weapon Peak’s Hall of Affairs immediately.”

Lin Yitang asked with some curiosity, "Senior brother, since this thing is so good, why don't you buy it for yourself? If you learn this Heavenly Net Formation, wouldn't you be able to do whatever you want in the cultivation world?"

Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Liu scratched the back of his head and said awkwardly, "Where would I get so many spirit stones! For things like these that have been lost to time, the price is calculated in mid-grade or even high-grade spirit stones! I personally don't have that much money."

"But if we hand it over to the sect, we can not only save a lot of spirit stones, but also study formations with more people. It just means a few more people will know about it. But even so, it doesn't matter. Junior Sister Min and I are both proficient in formations. Even if others know about it, they won't be able to set it up as well as we do."

Lin Yitang suddenly understood and nodded.

Upon seeing this, Senior Brother Liu excitedly took out his communication jade slip and immediately sent a message to the Hall of Affairs of the Array Weapon Peak.

Within fifteen minutes, an elder from the Hall of Affairs of the Array Weapon Peak rushed over, his steps hurried and his expression excited, as if he were afraid of missing some treasure.

Upon seeing Lin Yitang, he stared intently at her, his voice filled with excitement: "Young friend, I've heard you possess the diagram for the Heavenly Net Formation? Is that true?"

Lin Yitang nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case. Upon hearing this, the elder's voice trembled with excitement: "That's wonderful! Young friend, would you be willing to sell this array diagram to our Array Weapon Peak? We are willing to offer one thousand mid-grade spirit stones!"

The price stunned everyone present.

As ordinary disciples, we mostly see low-grade spirit stones, with a few mid-grade ones. Who has ever seen a thousand mid-grade spirit stones? That's enough to exchange for a single high-grade one!

Seeing everyone's shock, the elder suddenly realized what he had said and thought he had given too little. So he coughed and explained, "The Array Weapon Peak doesn't have much stock recently, so this is all we can offer. Generally, we give these kinds of treasures in units of high-grade spirit stones."

The elder added, "However, to compensate young friend Yitang, we will give you a copy of every Heavenly Net Array plate we make in the future. If you need other array plates, you can also choose them. However, you can only choose once a year."

Upon hearing this, the others were immediately filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.

If the spirit stones were paid in full upfront, there would be no further involvement. But now that the elder has proposed such a condition, Lin Yitang's interests have become infinitely greater.

As long as she lives, she can continue to enjoy the benefits of the Array Weapon Peak. How could that not make people envious?

Lin Yitang naturally understood this principle as well. Faced with such generous terms, she could not refuse, so she readily agreed, "Since the elder is so generous, then I will respectfully accept. I am willing to sell the array diagram to the Array Weapon Peak."

Soon, the Hall of Affairs delivered a thousand mid-grade spirit stones and exchanged them for the array diagram from Lin Yitang. Even after bidding farewell to Senior Brother Liu and Junior Sister Min, Lin Yitang was still somewhat dazed as she descended the mountain, as if she were in a dream.

Lin Yitang never imagined that one day she would possess over a thousand mid-grade spirit stones. Those were mid-grade spirit stones! If they were low-grade spirit stones, that would be a full million low-grade spirit stones! This was the first time she had ever held so many spirit stones in her hands, and her excitement was indescribable.

Recalling how he painstakingly gathered spiritual plants and herbs in the secret realm and sold various ores, he only earned fifteen mid-grade spirit stones. Now, a small array diagram is worth sixty times that harvest, equivalent to a hundred times the value of the spiritual plants and herbs. It seems that ordinary secret realm treasures are indeed not as valuable as true treasures.

He secretly resolved that from now on, his goal when venturing into secret realms would no longer be ordinary flowers and plants, but rather the valuable treasures. Only in this way could he make the most of his time and energy.
