Chapter 2006 Tribe Chief 3
Her gaze remained fixed on the array core, her focus unwavering. It was evident to Gu Chaoyan at first glance that the core of the barrier was a blue crystal. Though merely a middle-grade Spirit Stone in terms of spiritual energy, it possessed the ability to provide temporary protection for the Bai Clan.
During her time in the Yuehua Continent, she had acquired numerous Spirit Stones. Some were utilized for her own cultivation, while others were stored within her spatial storage.
Now was the opportune moment to employ them.
However, cultivating such an array formation required a certain amount of energy.
Gu Chaoyan meticulously studied the array, attempting to replicate it in her own way, with the goal of establishing a barrier array.
Yet, each time the Spirit Stones emitted light, they were extinguished in an instant.
Letting out a sigh, Gu Chaoyan persevered, continuing her efforts.
One day and one night passed, but Gu Chaoyan still hadn't managed to create the actual array formation. At times, it appeared tangible, only to vanish within moments. At other times, there was no reaction whatsoever.
The four of them grew increasingly anxious, yearning to assist but realizing their limitations.
Until suddenly, Gu Chaoyan had a revelation.
Releasing her spiritual energy, she gathered and concentrated it.
The spiritual energy coalesced upon the Spirit Stones, forming an array core.
Gu Chaoyan closed her eyes and activated the array, causing a vibrant red light to envelop the sky above the Bai Clan.
A joyful expression adorned Gu Chaoyan's face as she witnessed the success of her efforts. Rising to her feet, she stepped outside to observe the faint red glow that encased the Bai Clan within the barrier array.
"Success," Gu Chaoyan declared, a smile gracing her lips. She then collected the array, and the red crystal core gently landed in her hands, emitting a radiant red glow.
"Congratulations, Master!" the four of them cheered, their smiles reflecting their delight.
Gu Chaoyan nodded approvingly.
Her gaze shifted to the four disciples. "Have you learned anything from this experience?"
Silence ensued as the four contemplated her question.
"While you may not be capable of constructing such an extensive barrier formation at this time, you can still establish smaller formations. These formations can offer you precious time in the face of sudden danger. Understand?" Gu Chaoyan explained, emphasizing the importance of their knowledge.
None of the four uttered a word.
Master had come to the Bai Clan with the purpose of obtaining this barrier array and had taken them in as disciples, promising them the opportunity to possess this array if they succeeded in the competition. And now, that promise had been fulfilled.
Furthermore, Master had taught them how to protect themselves and escape harm.
Did this mean Master was departing? Did Master no longer wish to have them by their side?
"Master, can we continue to follow you in the future? With you by our side, we won't face danger alone," Fu Huarong mustered the courage to express his heartfelt desire, his eyes brimming with anticipation.
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
They were her disciples. Whether they stayed or followed her, it made no difference. As long as they were willing, she welcomed them wholeheartedly.
"Really?" Fu Huarong asked, his voice filled with excitement.
He was typically the quietest member of the group, but when it came to speaking boldly in front of Gu Chaoyan, he never held back.
"Of course, you can weigh the pros and cons," Gu Chaoyan responded calmly. "If you choose to accompany me, you must be prepared to handle everything on your own."
Joyful expressions adorned the faces of the others, but Wu Zimo found himself frozen in place.
Had he misunderstood Master?
Did Master never intend to leave them behind?
Why…
Why hadn't he personally asked Master about this earlier?
Wu Zimo let out a sigh, filled with regret.
The other three individuals exchanged glances, concern etched upon their faces.
"Zimo, are you…" Hong Fang hesitated, unsure of how to express his thoughts.
