Chapter 2166
“Eh?” Old Ghost, who was in the middle of arranging the array, heard Xiao Chen’s words and instantly looked straight at him.
His eyes were filled with intense anger.
Elder Zhang also looked over and his expression instantly became gloomy. With their status, how could they allow an ordinary disciple to disturb them during the process of refining pills and arranging the array?
Just a moment ago, he felt that Xiao Chen’s performance had made him somewhat happy. But now, he wanted to slap Xiao Chen to death.
That was because Xiao Chen had no manners at all. Old Man Gui was a famous Formation Master in the sect. Xiao Chen’s words were clearly questioning Old Man Gui, which was extremely disrespectful!
“Why did you interrupt this old man’s arrangement?”
Although Old Ghost was angry, he still maintained his status and asked. If Xiao Chen couldn’t give him a satisfactory answer, then he definitely wouldn’t be so easy to talk to.
“Elder, this disciple has studied some array knowledge in the past. Of course, I can’t compare to Elder’s attainments in arrays. However, the medicinal properties of this Thousand Faces Pill may be a bit stronger than what the two elders think. This junior is more sensitive, so he was able to perceive these subtle changes. As for the array that Elder is arranging now, there are several subtle flaws in it. Although they aren’t fatal, if you continue to arrange it like this, the Thousand Faces Pill will not be able to form. Therefore, this disciple dared to interrupt you!” Xiao Chen said calmly.
“Eh?!
You said that there are flaws in this old man’s array and there are several flaws? ”
Old Ghost’s eyes narrowed and revealed a bit of murderous intent. His attainments in arrays were famous in the entire Immortal Sect. But now, he was being questioned by an ordinary disciple. This was a provocation to him!
However, Old Man Gui quickly suppressed his anger.
Although he was a Grandmaster, he had his own pride and didn’t like to be questioned.
Whether it was to protect his status as an elder or for some unknown reason, Old Ghost did not attack him directly. Instead, he looked at Xiao Chen and said coldly, “You’re just a disciple in the Realm of True Immortality. How dare you question the flaws in my formation? Why don’t you tell me what the flaws are in the formation I just set up? Don’t blame me for not reminding you. If you’re just talking nonsense without any proof, humph, you know the consequences.”
“Then this disciple will offend you!”
Xiao Chen cupped his hands and said bluntly, “Elder, under normal circumstances, the array that you want to arrange is completely fine.
However, this disciple boldly speculates that this should be the first time you two elders have refined this pill and arranged this array. In theory, of course, there is no problem. However, the medicinal effect of the Thousand Dragons Pill is much stronger than what you two elders had imagined.
Elder, you made a total of three mistakes in the process of arranging the array. Of course, it can’t be said to be a mistake. Perhaps you wanted to make some slight changes and control the medicinal effect of the Thousand Dragons Pill more perfectly. However, because of this, the three changes you made just now caused the entire array to become extremely uncoordinated. Even if the array was successfully arranged, the pill would not be successful. ”
“What?
You can actually see that I just changed three minor details in the process of setting up the formation? “Ghost Geezer’s face was full of shock when he heard this!
There was no way he wouldn’t be shocked. He was already a powerhouse in the Celestial King Realm and a Grandmaster of Arrays!
As for Xiao Chen, he had just ascended not long ago. Even if he had learned some superficial knowledge about arrays in the lower worlds, it was impossible for him to see the three minor changes that he had just made.
However, the fact was that Xiao Chen had indeed seen the three minor changes in the array!
He couldn’t help but be shocked.
“How did you see that I just made three changes in the array?”
Old Ghost stared at Xiao Chen. At this moment, he had already forgotten to reprimand him. Instead, he was full of curiosity.
“This … disciple doesn’t know how to explain it. Anyway, when Elder made the changes just now, disciple vaguely sensed something!” Xiao Chen was silent for a moment and then slowly said.
“Are you saying that you felt that I had changed it three times just now?” Old Man Gui’s eyes widened instantly.
“Yes!” Xiao Chen gritted his teeth and said directly.
In fact, of course, he didn’t sense it by feeling it. It was the Fengsha Sword that made him say it. However, he didn’t know how to explain it at the moment, so he could only find an excuse to evade it.
However … after hearing his words, Old Ghost’s eyes instantly widened. After a moment of silence, he murmured, “Could it be that thing in the legends?!”
Then, Xiao Chen found that Old Ghost’s eyes were frighteningly bright, “Kid, is everything you said just now true?
If there is even a trace of deceit in this old man, not only will you not be able to continue to be a target in my heart, but you will also be cruelly tortured to death! ”
“Yes, disciple dares not deceive Elder!” Xiao Chen gritted his teeth again and said!
“Hahaha, good, since you sensed that I made three changes and said that if the array continues to be arranged according to the current array, the elixir will not be successful.
Then, do you have a way to improve it? “Unexpectedly, Old Ghost didn’t say anything more and asked Xiao Chen instead.
This caused Elder Zhang to be somewhat stunned.
“I dare not say that I have absolute confidence, but I should be able to try.” Xiao Chen hesitated for a moment and didn’t speak too confidently.
“Alright, then make some changes. Let me have a look and see if what you said just now is true, or if you’re just spouting nonsense.”
While controlling the array, Old Ghost slowly left the range of the cauldron and waved at Xiao Chen.
“Old Ghost, you …” Elder Zhang was somewhat shocked after witnessing this scene.
“Don’t say anymore. Actually, I also felt that after this array is arranged, the next attempt to refine the elixir will most likely fail. Since this kid is so confident, there is no harm in letting him try.” Old Ghost grinned at Elder Zhang.
“This … it can’t be!” Elder Zhang was somewhat shocked.
“Indeed, that kid is right. This is your first time refining the Thousand Faces Elixir, and it is also my first time assisting in refining the Thousand Faces Elixir. There must be some mistakes. Just now, I made three changes because I felt that if I didn’t make any changes, it would most likely fail. I just didn’t expect that after making three changes, this kid would still say that there is a possibility of failure.” Old Ghost smiled bitterly and spoke the truth.
