Ten years slipped by in silence.
"Finally... I'd completely mastered it..."
Benjamin raised his head from the simulated layout of the Celestial Star Array. Out of habit, he examined his Spirit Sea inwardly, then froze slightly.
Within the Ring of Truth, the golden line representing his degree of control over the Spirit Energy Law had, at some unknown point, quietly risen to ninety percent.
He remembered it clearly.
Decades ago, that line had still been stuck at eighty percent, as though an invisible wall had pressed against it with absolute force, leaving it utterly motionless.
Yet now, it had truly advanced by ten percentage points.
The golden line itself was also thicker than it had been ten years ago. The law fluctuations it emitted intertwined and resonated with the other golden law lines inside the Ring of Truth, faintly carrying an air of imminent completion.
Benjamin stared at that line for a moment before quickly understanding why.
The Celestial Star Array.
After all, during this period, nearly all his energy had been devoted to researching the Celestial Star Array. He had not specifically set aside time to arrange for the construction of the Creation System.
Moreover, although he had not actually deployed the array during these ten years, in order to deploy it successfully, he had practically dismantled the entire grand array inside and out.
From the arrangement patterns of the array cores to the energy circulation paths of the auxiliary stars.
From the rune structures within every primary array core to the resonance frequencies of starlight within the formation, he repeatedly deduced and simulated every detail. He had conducted no fewer than dozens of miniature experiments. Each simulation exposed new problems, and every problem had to be traced back to the underlying principles of the Spirit Energy Law to
