Lin Xuan took a leisurely glance at the Spirit Gathering Array.
"You said earlier that building an array is like building a house—there's some truth to that."
"But arrays are flexible and changeable, which is quite different from constructing a building."
As soon as he said these two sentences, Rong Hui's expression shifted.
This was absolutely the most subversive thing he had ever heard!
He had always thought that every array had its fixed structure and purpose.
But upon careful thought, Lin Xuan's words did make a lot of sense.
"Imperial Husband, please continue." Rong Hui wore a look of eager thirst for knowledge.
Lin Xuan pointed at the Spirit Gathering Array and said, "The most fundamental function of this array is to gather endless Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy."
"But if you forcibly cram all that spiritual energy inside, there will come a day when it exceeds its capacity."
"As the saying goes, 'blocking is worse than channeling'—if you want it to last long and function well, you must pay attention to the array's balance."
After hearing this, Rong Hui nodded repeatedly. "That's exactly the logic! Listening to the Imperial Husband's words is better than reading ten years of books!"
Feng Jin Fan's face showed even deeper reverence.
Even an Artifact Array Grandmaster was so humble before the Imperial Husband—it seemed this Imperial Husband was even more formidable than he had imagined.
"Then, in the Imperial Husband's opinion, what should be done to perfect this Spirit Gathering Array?" Rong Hui continued to seek advice.
Lin Xuan smiled faintly. "If the Five Elements Seven Stars Number isn't enough, then use the Eight Desolations Six Harmonies Number."
"Ah?" Rong Hui was startled.
The Eight Desolations Six Harmonies Number could derive eighty-one billion variations.
Such a massive undertaking would take him at least half a year to complete!
Before Rong Hui could recover, Lin Xuan had already stepped into the Spirit Gathering Array.
He raised his finger and tapped several directions within the array.
Mysterious golden rings soon appeared inside the Spirit Gathering Array.
The distribution of these golden rings was very peculiar, carrying a resonance that aligned with the principles of Heaven and Earth.
After careful identification, Rong Hui couldn't help but show shock. "These are the Eight Desolations Six Harmonies Positions! The Imperial Husband is truly swift as lightning!"
Whoosh~
Golden light burst forth.
All the golden rings in every direction connected into a graceful curve.
At that moment, the wildly gushing spiritual energy actively flowed back into the Spirit Gathering Array.
Not only that, but once the spiritual energy reached a certain concentration, the energy within the array flowed out again along countless predetermined paths.
This cycle repeated endlessly, smooth and gentle, yet perfectly harmonious.
Rong Hui clapped his hands and sighed, "The Imperial Husband is truly a Divine Person!"
Only now did he understand why Lin Xuan could become the Empress's Man.
With just this mastery of the Eight Desolations Six Harmonies, Lin Xuan was absolutely qualified to look down on all the Heroes of North Profound Heaven.
Of course, aside from his profound skills, Lin Xuan's appearance was also exceptionally handsome.
Combined together, even the Eternal Empress couldn't resist Lin Xuan's charm.
Feng Jin Fan silently praised in his heart, "Your Majesty truly has excellent judgment—the Imperial Husband is indeed one in ten thousand!"
"Alright, let's go in."
Seeing the matter resolved, Lin Xuan led the Four Daughters toward the Spirit Gathering Array.
Rong Hui and Feng Jin Fan immediately withdrew.
According to the rules set by the Empress, guards must retreat when the Princesses practice their swords.
This was mainly because the sword techniques Donghuang Ziyou taught the Children were very powerful.
"Daddy, I'll show you the sword technique Mother taught me!"
Xuan Zhu's dark eyes rolled, and she was the first to grab Lin Xuan's hand and speak.
"I also need to show Daddy!"
The other three Girls snapped out of it and immediately crowded in to compete for his attention.
Lin Xuan affectionately rubbed their Little Heads. "Treasures, what's the name of the sword technique Mother taught you?"
"I'll say—it's called 'Tian Zhao Swordplay'!" Xuan Xi quickly raised her Little Hand to answer.
Xuan Zhu added, "Mother said it's a Saint Grade Mid Rank swordsmanship."
Lin Xuan listened and nodded silently.
No wonder Donghuang Ziyou didn't allow anyone to watch.
This Tian Zhao Swordplay was Saint Grade Mid Rank, definitely a precious sword art.
"Alright, then you can all practice together for Daddy to see." Lin Xuan smiled.
The four little girls nodded at once, stepping back several paces, gathering their breath and circulating their True Essence.
Using the endless spiritual energy in the Spirit Gathering Array as a guide, they pulled the long swords from the rack across the air into their hands.
"Daddy, we're starting now!"
With Daddy watching, the four little girls were full of fighting spirit.
The moment they moved, they had the bearing of supreme experts.
Seeing this, Lin Xuan couldn't help but sigh.
As expected, dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes.
Donghuang Ziyou's monstrous talent had been perfectly passed down to these four children.
Coupled with the help of the Saint Grade Mid Rank "Tian Zhao Swordplay," the four little girls' sword strikes were sharp and extraordinary.
Before they knew it, the four children had finished practicing.
They all ran over to Lin Xuan in a rush, vying to ask, "Daddy, did we do well?"
"Good, good, good!" Lin Xuan felt four soft little bundles rubbing desperately against his legs, and the feeling made his fatherly love surge.
Xuan You climbed up Lin Xuan's leg as she said, "Daddy is so amazing, can Daddy teach us sword moves too?"
When Xuan Zhu and the others heard this, they immediately perked up, pestering Lin Xuan to teach them new sword moves.
Lin Xuan had no choice but to nod: "Alright, Daddy will teach you a new sword move too."
"Yay!"
The four little girls quickly scattered, all staring wide-eyed at Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan picked up a long sword and held it in his hand, sweeping his gaze over his four daughters: "Watch closely."
What he used was exactly the system-rewarded "Limitless Sword Technique."
The so-called limitless meant boundless, endless, infinite, without end, and without shadow!
This was a sword move that valued intent over form, unleashed from the heart, with no framework and no constraints.
Since Lin Xuan had no cultivation and had never practiced swordsmanship before, the posture he displayed looked not only slow but also lacking in power.
However, for Xuan Zhu and the others, it was a completely different feeling.
"Daddy moves very slowly, but it feels so powerful!"
"Yeah, Daddy's sword moves are really different from Mother's!"
"I really want to learn!"
"Me too!"
The four little girls' eyes sparkled brightly.
Lin Xuan put away the long sword and turned to look at his four daughters: "Did you all see anything?"
"Mm!"
The four little girls nodded at the same time.
Their talent was already at the monstrous level. Although Lin Xuan's sword moves were clumsy, the Sword Intent was extraordinary.
Xuan Zhu and the others forgot Lin Xuan's sword moves, but they could firmly engrave the Sword Intent he revealed into their hearts.
"Then give it a try." Lin Xuan wanted to see how far his daughters could comprehend the "Limitless Sword Technique."
"Daddy, I'll go first!"
The eldest, Xuan Zhu, stepped forward without yielding.
She took a deep breath and circulated her True Essence.
Closing her eyes to sense the Sword Intent in her heart, she slashed out a sword horizontally.
Whoosh!
A streak of sword light shot across, spanning a hundred zhang in an instant.
The golden sword light pierced through the Spirit Gathering Array and landed on a giant stone in the distance.
With a boom, the giant stone burst apart, sending countless fragments flying into the air.
"Wow!"
"Ah!"
"Eep!"
"Oh!"
The four little girls all covered their mouths, letting out startled cries.
In the distance, Feng Jin Fan and the other guards, hearing the commotion, turned around with shocked expressions.
