Chapter 180: Dharma Treasures Are Array Formations
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
After the morning cla.s.ses, Cao Ronghua, Zhou Liren, and Zhao Jiayi raced down the building like three excited middle-schoolers since the winner of the race would get the opportunity to sit in Hao Ren’s Ferrari.
The other cla.s.smates also knew that Hao Ren had driven a Ferrari to school, and they all went down to take a look.
Sitting in the front row, Xie Yujia quietly packed up her stuff and didn’t want to join the fuss.
Soon, only Hao Ren and Xie Yujia were left in the cla.s.sroom while the others were all downstairs checking out the Ferrari.
“The… Car is not mine,” Hao Ren explained to Xie Yujia.
The cla.s.sroom was empty now. Even though some students pa.s.sed by the door occasionally, it was very quiet inside. The sunlight shot through the windows and landed into the room, reflecting on the empty desks.
“Ok.” Xie Yujia nodded. “You don’t have to explain anything to me.”
“Are you upset?” Hao Ren asked again. Pretending to be packing his books, he still stood in the back row.
“No. I just don’t want to interfere with your business,” Xie Yujia said in her clear and casual voice.
Then, she put the books into her bag before standing up.
Speechless, Hao Ren watched Xie Yujia walk to the door of the cla.s.sroom.
“Oh,” Xie Yujia looked back suddenly when she reached the door and said, “There’s no cla.s.s after two this afternoon, and I plan to visit my old school, LingZhao Middle School. Do… Do you want to go with me?”
Hao Ren froze for a moment before nodding. “Ok.”
“Your little beauty is in LingZhao Middle School too, isn’t she? You can visit her while you are there.” She walked out of the cla.s.sroom after giving him a bright smile.
Hao Ren packed up his books hurriedly. When he walked out of the cla.s.sroom through the rear door, he saw Xie Yujia going down the stairs on the other side of the corridor.
He took out the car key and was walking down the stairs when his cell phone beeped with an incoming text message. Thinking that it was from Xie Yujia, he clicked it open and found that it came from an unfamiliar number.
“Hi, I’m w.a.n.g Jia. Dear Cla.s.smate Hao, it suddenly occurred to me that I still owe you 10 yuan when we collected the cla.s.s fees last time. How about I treat you to a dinner tonight?”
This message reminded him of the conversation between Ma Lina and Liu Yan about the sn.o.bbish att.i.tude of w.a.n.g Jia, one of the girls in their cla.s.s. He knew that not every girl in their school was as indifferent to fame and fortune as Xie Yujia, and he deleted the message without hesitation.
When he was perceived as poor, no girls except the Cla.s.s President, Xie Yujia, offered him help. Now that he drove a Ferrari to school, girls began to invite him to dinner……
After walking out of the Academic Building, he saw many students surrounding his Ferrari.
Their attention attracted the curiosity of the pa.s.sing students, and these pa.s.sing students all walked over to see what was happening. With the car key in his hand, Hao Ren backed off and decided to take a walk around campus. He was planning to come back and get the Ferrari when the crowd was gone.
“Gongzi!”
He didn’t walk far when Lu Linlin and Lu Lili jumped out suddenly from the side. They hooked their arms through his intimately.
They were as agile as small kitties, and they dressed especially bright and cute today with unique floral blouses.
“Oh, here you are.” Hao Ren pulled his arms from theirs and looked at them. “How are your exam scores?”
“Thanks to you, we had excellent scores!” Lu Lili stuck out her tongue cutely and reported before her sister could say anything.
“Excellent scores probably means that every course is over 80,” Hao Ren thought.
“Thanks to your tutoring, my sister and I got excellent scores. Thus, we have decided to invite you to lunch,” Lu Linlin said to Hao Ren with a smile.
They had not seen Hao Ren for several days and were quite pleased to see him today. Ignoring everyone else, their eyes were only on Hao Ren. The guys around them were burning with jealousy at this scene.
“The Ferrari belongs to him!”
“No wonder the most beautiful girls in the school are with him.”
“Even Huang Xujie was defeated by him. There’s nothing we can do.”
Triggered by the sight of Lu Linlin and Lu Lili clinging onto Hao Ren’s arms, the whispering gossips spread.
Since Hao Ren had questions that they could answer, he didn’t decline the invitation. While he walked with them toward the Hongji Square, he said, “A couple of days ago, I accidentally released the sword energy into the sky, and it brought back some Lightning Energy that seemed to be helpful to my cultivation.”
Hearing Hao Ren’s words, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili who were walking on both sides of him exchanged a look before raising their hands to cover their smiles.
Confused, Hao Ren asked, “What?”
“Silly Gongzi, it’s Lightning Cultivation, so of course you need to cultivate with Lightning in the sky. If you could only absorb the five elemental essences from nature, it won’t be called Lightning Cultivation at all,” Lu Lili snickered.
Her smile dazzled the guys around them.
“You dare to call me silly!” Hao Ren pouted and pretended to be angry.
Thinking that Hao Ren was about to punish her, Lu Lili stuck out her tongue before jumping further away from him.
The scene triggered another surge of jealousy among the guys who were around them.
“Gongzi, in fact, we came to you to ask you something,” Lu Linlin moved closer to Hao Ren and whispered.
“What is it?” Hao Ren asked.
“For one moment this morning, we suddenly lost contact with the bell, but the contact soon returned. We were surprised but knew that you were not in danger. We just came over to check with you,” Lu Linlin said.
“Oh…” Hao Ren thought that the loss of contact was due to his necklace. “Last night, I went to the Dragon Palace and got a hidden s.p.a.ce attached to the necklace. In fact, I was about to ask you something about it. Why is it that only Dharma Treasures or items with Nature Essence on them can be stored in the hidden s.p.a.ce, and the objects of the mortal world can’t be put in there?”
“In fact, all Dharma Treasures including the ones that have hidden s.p.a.ces in them are a combination of array formations,” Lu Linlin explained, “For the top-tier Dharma Treasures, there are comparatively more complicated array formations. There are simpler and fewer array formations in the low-tier ones.”
“Different Dharma Treasures have different functions; they are decided by both the materials and the array formations. In fact, great Dharma Treasure Creators could not only destroy a Dharma Treasure with ease but also make Dharma Treasures with materials proficiently as well.”
“Dharma Treasures such as Xumi Rings could only store the true treasures of nature. The storage places inside these Dharma Treasures aren’t real s.p.a.ce. They must sense the Nature Essence fluctuations of an object before they could store it. The objects without Nature Essence can’t form connections with the array formations in the Dharma Treasures, so they couldn’t be stored in the hidden s.p.a.ce.”
Hearing Lu Linlin’s detailed explanation, Hao Re nodded, finally understanding the great power of that young boy. That young Daoist was someone who could create hidden s.p.a.ces at will! With only one touch, he had built dozens of mini array formations that could balance one another in this ordinary necklace.
When Su Han gave him the necklace, it contained only several simple array formations. After Qin Shaoyang’s two attacks, the array formations were all broken.
Zhou Liren and the others were busy making comments and arguing with each other and didn’t hear a word of the conversation between Hao Ren and the Lu sisters.
“If the s.p.a.ce could cut off the connection between the bell and the Lu sisters, then it would…” Suddenly, an idea occurred to Hao Ren.
