Chapter 1295: Chapter 1295: Improving the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array
Xing Yao stood to the side, feeling somewhat awkward after hearing Duan Yuanfeng’s words to Lin Chen. Was this Master Duan in front of him still the same Master he knew? He actually bent the rules for someone.
The Master he knew despised such behavior the most.
Therefore, the fact that his Master was willing to break his principles for this young man in front of them showed just how much he valued him.
Xing Yao couldn’t help but glance at Lin Chen a few more times, pondering to himself, what was the background of this young man?
"Master Duan, your methods are truly admirable, being able to use the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array within the flames of this mountain range, not only controlling the fire here but also preventing it from getting out of control. I am impressed,"
Lin Chen said with sincere admiration as he gazed at the giant furnace where the mountain flames converged.
"I didn’t expect young friend Lin Chen to recognize the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array,"
Duan Yuanfeng said to Lin Chen with surprise in his heart.
This mountain range indeed had the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array set up, but it was something that no ordinary person could discern, and Duan Yuanfeng had never mentioned it.
"Just know a little bit, I hope I didn’t embarrass myself,"
Lin Chen said with a smile to Duan Yuanfeng, appearing very humble.
However, Lin Chen knew far more than just a little bit.
Subsequently, Lin Chen’s gaze fell on the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array within the mountain range, and he immediately noticed some flaws in Duan Yuanfeng’s setup.
After a moment’s thought, considering his previous transaction with Duan Yuanfeng, a powerful artifact refiner, he decided to point them out.
Thus, Lin Chen pointed out several shortcomings of the Gathering Fire Spirit Array within Duan Yuanfeng’s mountain range.
"Senior, this Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array is indeed mysterious, but in its current setup, there are some flaws. It might achieve the goal of concentrating fire, but I’m afraid not at one hundred percent. Over time, there should be bursts of rampant fire attribute energy within the array, hard to control."
"Moreover, this situation should become more frequent and erratic as time goes on,"
Lin Chen said blandly.
However, as soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, Duan Yuanfeng was utterly shocked.
It was already surprising that Lin Chen recognized the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array.
Now, to think that Lin Chen could even point out the flaws in the formation, left Duan Yuanfeng thoroughly shaken.
Moreover, Lin Chen’s remarks were precise, matching exactly the issues occurring within his Spirit Fire Mountain.
One should know that this Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array was arranged with great effort by Wang Tong, the Hall Master of the Spirit Formation Hall of Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
It took a significant cost for Duan Yuanfeng to invite Wang Tong to set up the formation.
And even Wang Tong wasn’t too willing, considering he’s as exceptional in spiritual formations as Duan Yuanfeng is in artifact refining, his skills are top-notch throughout the Cloud Dragon Kingdom, even surpassing Duan Yuanfeng’s in artifact refining.
Yet now, Lin Chen could identify the deficiencies in the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array set by Wang Tong; most crucially, Lin Chen’s words were nothing but accurate, not mere nonsense.
"Young friend Lin Chen, do you have a method to perfect this Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array?"
Duan Yuanfeng approached Lin Chen, asking nervously.
Understand that establishing this formation cost him significant effort.
Though the frequent disturbances of the Earth Spirit Fire wouldn’t harm him with his cultivation, they affected his artifact refining process.
Yet being able to harness the Earth Spirit Fire already left Duan Yuanfeng quite satisfied.
However, if there was a way to perfect the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array, it would be even better.
Looking at Lin Chen, Duan Yuanfeng was filled with anticipation.
It might be amusing for outsiders to see the foremost artifact refiner of the Cloud Dragon Kingdom seeking the help of a young boy with Fifth Level Cultivation of the Nirvana realm in such a humble manner.
But Duan Yuanfeng firmly believed that Lin Chen must have a solution.
These issues with the Gathering Fire Spirit Flame Array within the volcano had troubled him for a long time.
If they could be resolved today, it would greatly assist him.
Then, he could continually harness the Earth Spirit Fire for artifact refining without worrying about its volatility.
"There’s naturally a solution; just adjust some locations of the formation, and it can change the situation,"
Lin Chen said after surveying the surrounding formation.
In fact, Lin Chen really wanted to say that the formation arranged by the Hall Master was mediocre at best, or that the guy deliberately held back from setting up a perfect one for Duan Yuanfeng.
As long as Lin Chen had enough materials, not only could he repair this formation, but setting up one ten times more potent wouldn’t be a problem.
This enhanced fire control formation was child’s play to Lin Chen, who could arrange arrays for automated alchemy and artifact refining.
He helped Zhao Rushi in alchemy by laying down the Pill Spirit Array, which was immensely beneficial.
Similarly, setting up a Spirit Array for Duan Yuanfeng would bring colossal benefits.
However, both Pill Spirit Array and Spirit Array are formations that had already been lost on the Mysterious Heaven Continent, and Lin Chen would not arrange them lightly for others.
Listening to Lin Chen, Duan Yuanfeng’s heart was a mix of emotions, both tense and excited.
If Lin Chen indeed had a way to perfect the formation, it would be an extraordinary boon to him.
However, if Lin Chen wasn’t capable and simply overconfident, should a renovation result in lesser effectiveness, what then?
In that case, he’d have to humbly beseech that old fellow Wang Tong again, and if he did, he’d surely be severely overcharged.
Duan Yuanfeng looked at Lin Chen, hesitating, unsure whether to let Lin Chen repair it.
Lin Chen, seeing this, wasn’t bothered. Duan Yuanfeng’s hesitation was a normal reaction.
After thinking it over, Duan Yuanfeng gritted his teeth and chose to take a risk, deciding to trust Lin Chen.
After all, Lin Chen’s demeanor moments ago, so confident, shouldn’t be deceiving him.
Between a better formation and a flawed one, Duan Yuanfeng chose to strive for the former.
If it indeed ruined the effect of the current formation, he could always turn to beg Wang Tong again.
"Young friend Lin Chen, go ahead and perfect the formation,"
"Regardless of the outcome, this old man will accept it happily."
