In the following days, the sect printed and bound into books a large quantity of the array insights and created array content submitted by Chen Junting. They selected sect disciples who had previously come into contact with arrays, and Chen Junting provided them with systematic teaching. In the future, the few would lead the many, spreading arrays throughout the entire Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
As for when to teach them to other powers…
In Ning Bowen's words: Wait another year or two. When the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect occupies an absolute advantage in the path of arrays, that will be the day to negotiate "array" cooperation with other powers.
Regarding this, Chen Junting naturally neither agreed nor disagreed.
Anyway, he believed the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would not harm him.
However, during this period, due to one matter, Chen Junting finally took time out of his busy schedule of array teaching.
"Thank goodness."
At this moment, in Huo Yuhao's courtyard, Ning Tian was accompanying Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er in drinking tea. But just then, a knocking sound and a murmuring voice came from the gate.
The next second, Chen Junting pushed open the door and walked in.
He looked up at the three people sitting there, then said, "Sorry. I just finished class over there, so I'm a bit late."
"It's fine, we only arrived not long ago ourselves."
Ning Tian put down her tea cup. Along with Huo Yuhao, the two nodded understandingly. Then she alone lightly came to Chen Junting's side, pulled him to sit on the seat, and placed her hands against his temples.
Kneading gently, she relieved his fatigue for him.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er served tea and peeled fruit respectively; the service was quite comprehensive. Except…
Taking the fruit, Chen Junting couldn't help but feel amused and helpless. "Dong'er, are you peeling the skin? I'm afraid you're peeling the flesh."
A perfectly good fruit, half the flesh was peeled away.
What a waste!
Instantly, Wang Dong'er's face flushed red with embarrassment. With lightning speed, she snatched the fruit back and stuffed it into Huo Yuhao's mouth, "Isn't this my first time peeling one!?"
Then she even picked up the fruit peel from the table, "Swish—"
Physically destroyed!
Seeing this scene, Chen Junting shook his head. Lifting the tea cup to take a sip, he enjoyed Ning Tian's massage. A gentle voice sounded behind his head, "Are you very tired?"
"It's okay."
Chen Junting narrowed his eyes slightly, looking quite pleased. "Our sect's disciples still have talent. Moreover, during this period they've learned almost enough; just now was the last class."
"That's good."
Suddenly, the entire courtyard fell into silence.
Even Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, who had specifically sought out Chen Junting for something, did not rush but waited quietly, giving Chen Junting enough rest time. Until a quarter of an hour later, his narrowed eyes slowly opened, and Ning Tian's actions stopped accordingly.
"Comfortable."
Chen Junting lazily stretched his muscles and bones, saying with a smile.
"Xiao Tian, thank you."
But what greeted him was a glare like a reproach.
Obviously, Chen Junting did not take this to heart. He withdrew his gaze from Ning Tian and turned to Huo Yuhao and the others. However, when looking at Wang Dong'er, his expression gradually became serious.
For a moment, the atmosphere changed accordingly.
Wang Dong'er's smile could not be maintained directly; she fumbled anxiously, but could not grasp anything.
Until Huo Yuhao's hand firmly grasped hers.
"Brother Junting…"
"I know the purpose of your visit."
Before Huo Yuhao could finish speaking, Chen Junting had already opened his mouth. He waved his hand, and a gray six-pointed star array appeared.
"This is not the place to talk; come with me."
The next second, the gray six-pointed star array shone brightly, swallowing the bodies of the four of them, and they disappeared together.
Ning Tian and the other three only felt a strong sense of dizziness come over them. It was like being stuffed into a tube, then everything around them constantly twisted, as if trying to tear them apart.
Fortunately, this process was not long. The three only felt their bodies relax, and they had already arrived in the world of the Undead Demiplane.
"Ugh—"
The moment her feet touched the ground, Wang Dong'er's first reaction was to dry heave. But she retched for a long time without vomiting anything out.
In a trance, Chen Junting's voice came to her ears, "The first time might be uncomfortable; the second time will be much better."
"I don't think so."
Ning Tian shook her head, looking slightly uncomfortable.
"This space travel is far less comfortable than Tianchen's."
Nearby, Huo Yuhao nodded in complete agreement.
"Wait, I have a question."
Wang Dong'er shivered, looking around confusedly at this world that was completely inconsistent with her cognition.
"Where is this?"
...
Divine Realm.
Under the swirling clouds of changing shapes, the majestic palace shimmered with a faint golden glow in the halo. This was the highest point of the Divine Realm, and also the place that controlled everything in the Divine Realm.
The Divine Realm Committee!
Here lay the responsibility of judging the gods;
And also the task of managing the Divine Realm and maintaining the rules.
The main hall of the palace was octagonal. Every wall around had no decoration, but countless scenes changed and flickered.
Each light screen represented a world, a scene of a different planet in the human realm. This was also the place where the Divine Realm Committee monitored various planets in this star domain.
In the center of the main hall was a round table. The surface of the table was of unknown material, like ethereal clouds and mist, yet like an endless abyss.
At this moment, Tang San was sitting in the main seat.
His gaze flowed, sweeping across the pieces of light screens.
This was his work, and today it happened to be his shift. He had to monitor the various planes under the Divine Realm to see if anything unusual happened that needed resolving.
Finally, his gaze lingered around the Douluo Plane.
The main attention was placed on the few small planes next to the Douluo Plane. After a long time, he withdrew his gaze.
"Hm, nothing happened. Phew—"
Letting out a long breath, Tang San slightly closed his eyes. "I've been staring for almost a quarter of an hour; better relax for a bit. Maybe now take some time to see how Xiao Qi is doing?"
Murmuring, he suddenly paused.
When he opened his eyes and looked outside the palace, he saw two streaks of light, one green and one purple, fall. At the same time, a low voice sounded, "Look, what do I see. You've only been monitoring for a short while, and the Sea God is already starting to slack off."
Tang San wanted to sneer coldly, but still suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, saying in a flat tone, "Destruction, today is your day off. Why not grasp the few holidays you have properly? What are you doing here?"
"Do I need to report to you what I'm doing?"
The God of Destruction was not polite either, saying coldly.
"There's usually no need." Tang San was equally impolite. "But today is my shift on duty; you coming here will disturb my work."
"I only see a god slacking off."
"Alright, Little Zi (Purple)."
The Goddess of Life spoke out, calming the retorting God of Destruction, then said to Tang San, "Sea God, we couple came today to observe the situation of the Douluo Plane. After all, Little Zi put down the Rakshasa God's inheritance to find a suitable successor for the Rakshasa God position. So we plan to put more attention on the Douluo Plane. After all, ten thousand years ago you seven gods ascended; ten thousand years later might be a new cycle. In this era, the Douluo Plane might have more outstanding juniors. Therefore, we want to increase attention on the Douluo Plane during this period."
Observing an entire plane is not the same as observing privately; to do this step, only the Divine Realm Committee can.
This was also why the God of Destruction brought the Goddess of Life here. His style of action was always vigorous and swift.
At this time, the Goddess of Life also changed the subject, "Of course, we also know you had a grudge with the previous deceased Rakshasa God. But when a god dies, debts vanish; everything has nothing to do with the children afterwards."
Paying attention to the Douluo Continent?!
Tang San's heart couldn't help but thump.
He didn't expect the descent of the Rakshasa God inheritance to attract such attention from the God of Destruction.
No, not right! It's not solely for this reason.
Damn, my excessive attention in the past has also attracted the God of Destruction's notice. Speaking of which, I must restrain myself a bit.
In less than a second, Tang San's thoughts had processed seven or eight thoughts. At the same time, regarding the Goddess of Life's words about "not making things difficult for the Rakshasa God inheritance," he secretly smiled in his heart and spared a thread of attention to respond in time.
"Rest assured, Goddess of Life. I, the Sea God, am not a petty god. As a Divine Realm Enforcer and Divine Realm God King, the most important thing is fairness and justice; I will absolutely not practice favoritism."
"Naturally."
The Goddess of Life smiled, pulling the God of Destruction.
The God of Destruction sneered coldly, then strode to the conference table. With a wave of his large hand, he presented the scene of the Douluo Plane.
However, in his heart, slight ripples arose.
The Sea God was a bit unusual just now.
