After dealing with matters of the Small World, Zhao Letian reunited with his family briefly before returning to the outside grand world. He then transformed into a terrifyingly fast streak of light, shooting straight toward the Heavenly Array Sect and soaring through the sky!

Based on the memories of that white-robed youth and the black-robed Emperor Wu, the Heavenly Array Sect is a superpower on the Youzhou Continent with Emperor-level powerhouses presiding over the sect, even surmounting Emperor Wu!

What is most important is that this is a sect that specializes in cultivating Arrays, home to the formidable Array Masters of Level 6 Arrays!

Fortunately, Zhao Letian needed to become an Array Master of Level 6 or above, so visiting the Heavenly Array Sect might allow him to make gains!

Moreover, getting in touch with such an Emperor-level force would further his understanding of the Youzhou Continent. Perhaps there could be other ways to return to Qingzhou Continent, aside from repairing the Nine Provinces Transmission Formation!

As of now, Zhao Letian's cultivation level was extremely close to that of a mid-ranking emperor, rendering his speed incredibly astonishing. Soon after, he traversed tens of millions of miles and arrived at the Heavenly Array Sect.

The Heavenly Array Sect was constructed amid a lofty mountain range, with palaces and buildings sprawling across the peaks. Its grandeur and sheer scale surpassed even the Imperial City of the Sky Dome Dynasty!

Above this vast sect, an even larger Array Formation Light Shield enveloped in the air.

"This...this is a Level 6 Array!"

Zhao Letian, observing the Array Formation Light Shield that reflected rainbow glows under the sunlight, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

A Level 6 Array was comparable to the existence of an Emperor-level powerhouse. Zhao Letian was not yet able to decipher it; after all, he was currently just a Level 4 Array Master.

"After breaking through to the Emperor-level, the bottleneck I faced in Array Formation cultivation has been overcome, and I can breakthrough to a Level 5 Array Master at any moment. However, advancing from Level 5 to Level 6 is extremely challenging. I wonder if there are things within the Heavenly Array Sect to help a Martial Artist swiftly advance their Array Formation Proficiency."

Zhao Letian pondered as he gazed at the Array Formation Light Shield before him.

"Eh? Brother, are you also here to participate in the Selecting of the Array Master's inheritance?"

Just then, a curious voice suddenly sounded.

"Uh?"

Zhao Letian was slightly startled and quickly turned to look. To his surprise, a young fat man—similar in age to him, dressed in an ornate golden robe, portly in stature, appearing somewhat comical—had silently appeared not far behind him.

"A mid-rank Emperor? His cultivation is higher than mine; no wonder he could approach me silently. However, it's my fault for paying too much attention to this Level 6 Array. Had I been vigilant of my surroundings, I could have discovered him earlier!"

Zhao Letian thought.

"Brother, why are you constantly staring at me? Could it be that you are attracted by my modestly handsome appearance? If that's the case, I can only apologize. I am not into that sort of thing!"

The golden-robed fat man said with a sheepish smile.

"..."

Zhao Letian was slightly taken aback, speechless for a moment.

This little fatty was truly narcissistic, and his name was unusual enough. Had Zhao Letian not seen it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to believe that such a person could also be an Emperor-level powerhouse, and a mid-rank Emperor at that!

"Hey, don't be nervous. Just kidding. But I've already introduced myself, isn't it about time for you to do the same?"

Qian Buduo grinned and said.

"My name is Zhao Letian, nice to meet you!"

Zhao Letian responded with a light smile.

"Zhao Letian? How could there be such an unusual name? I've always thought my name was peculiar enough, but I didn't expect that you would be even more outlandish than me!"

Qian Buduo paused slightly, a hint of surprise in his voice.

"…Brother Qian, you must be joking. May I ask what this Array Master apprentice selection you spoke of is all about?"

Zhao Letian was internally speechless, then helplessly smiled with curiosity.

"You don't know about this? You really are an oddity! Not even knowing about such a significant event as the Array Masters taking on apprentices. You must be one of those cultivation fanatics who only knows to immerse themselves in secluded meditation. That someone like you could become an Emperor-level powerhouse really defies all reason!"

Qian Buduo shook his head, seemingly very frustrated.

"..."

Zhao Letian was at a loss for words, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, he couldn't tell if it was him that was peculiar, or Qian Buduo, or maybe both of them were oddities.

That Qian Buduo said he only knew to meditate in seclusion, yet Letian felt that this little fatty was the one who seemed to be the type to meditate in seclusion and rarely walked amongst others!

Because this guy's manner of speaking and behavior were totally like someone who seldom interacted with others, completely devoid of any schemes, just a shut-in.

"That's enough! That's enough! To meet is fate. It's your lucky day to have met this young master. I will tell you about the Array Master apprentice selection. In the Heavenly Array Sect, there is a vast burial ground where countless Array Grandmasters are interred. Not only are there many Array inheritances, but there are also many powerful Arrays left by predecessors waiting for future generations to decipher. This burial ground is called the Array Tomb, a forbidden place of the Heavenly Array Sect. It opens once every hundred years. If someone can pass through each Array trial and exit the burial ground within a hundred years, they will be eligible to become an apprentice to the Array Master, inheriting the Array lineage, and may even become the Sect Master of the Heavenly Array Sect!"

Qian Buduo spoke slowly.

"The Array Tomb? I see... So, according to Brother Qian, the Array Tomb will be opening soon?"

Zhao Letian pondered.

"Not just soon! It's opening today! There's only half an hour left. If we don't go now, we'll be too late!"

Qian Buduo said.

"Today? Does Brother Qian know if there are any requirements to participate in this Array Master apprentice assessment? Can people who are not from the Heavenly Array Sect also go?"

Zhao Letian asked.

"There are no specific requirements. Anyone can enter as long as they dare. However, under normal circumstances, those who dare enter the Array Tomb are at least lower Emperor-level practitioners, and many are mid-level Emperor or upper Emperor-level. Moreover, you also need to have a good understanding of Arrays!"

Qian Buduo answered.

"Thank you for the clarification, Brother Qian! One more question, who is this Array Master?"

Zhao Letian thanked him with a hand gesture.

"What? You don't even know the Array Master? Did you spring out from a crack in a rock? Or are you really not from the Youzhou Continent?"

Qian Buduo said with a face full of astonishment.

"…I'm merely uninformed, and I've caused Brother Qian to laugh at me!"

Zhao Letian was slightly startled and spoke with some embarrassment.

"Forget it, I must have encountered an idiot today… The Array Master is naturally the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Array Sect, a high and mighty Emperor-level powerhouse! And besides being an Emperor-level powerhouse, the Array Master is also a genuine Level 6 Array Master!"

Qian Buduo spoke while looking towards the Heavenly Array Sect, his eyes filled with boundless reverence.
