Qin Chen did not expect that the examination of the Twelve Heavens of the Holy Array could actually enhance his mental strength.
It is known that at Qin Chen's level, wanting to increase even a small bit of mental strength is not an easy task; often, breakthroughs in mental strength can only occur after a rise in cultivation level.
Yet now, Qin Chen surprisingly felt his mental strength gradually increasing.
But this was not the most important part. The crucial aspect was that during the process of perceiving the array patterns, Qin Chen could clearly sense that his understanding of the array patterns was also improving bit by bit.
This feeling was simply wonderful.
Especially since each array pattern on the steps was very special, containing extraordinary elements. By observing them more closely, one could comprehend their uniqueness.
What Qin Chen was currently doing was not merely replicating every array pattern on each step, but completely understanding and making them his own.
Qin Chen originally only needed to release his mental strength to instantly see the array pattern on the step he was on and replicate it. However, he did not do that; instead, he carefully perceived the formation and intent of each array pattern, investing himself wholeheartedly into it.
But to others, it looked like Qin Chen was stuck again.
“I said that Qin Chen is just lucky; look, he has stopped again on the second step.”
“White Yutang, the young master of the Treasure Hall, and Yun Mengze are impressive; they've already made it to the fourth level.”
“Is there anything to say? With the talent of the young master of the Treasure Hall and the strength of Yun Mengze, passing the six-layer examination is a piece of cake. They can even pass the Tian Gong Refiner’s examination without any problem. The only question is how well they will pass.”
The crowd was buzzing with discussions.
It must be said that White Yutang and Yun Mengze were incredibly fast; they were almost the quickest to reach the fourth level. Their speed was simply shocking, even surpassing many veteran Refiner Masters.
As time passed, just as Qin Chen was about to be eliminated again after waiting nearly the time of an incense stick on the second step, he suddenly moved.
Whoosh! His hands swiftly swept, and in an instant, an array pattern representing the second step quickly emerged. At the same time, the light brightened, and Qin Chen stepped onto the third level.
“What the hell, this kid is so lucky?”
“He stepped onto the next level with just three breaths left?”
“I…” Many people were left speechless. They even thought Qin Chen was about to be eliminated again, but at the last moment, he actually completed the examination of the second level once more and entered the third level.
This made everyone's eyes widen in disbelief.
“The third level, I bet this kid definitely can't pass the third level.”
“Right, no matter how lucky he is, he should fail at this point, right?”
“If he passes the third level, then heaven really has no eyes!”
The crowd continued to discuss, while in the sky, Yun Dongguang couldn’t help but sneer, “Hmph, this kid really has good luck.”
“Good luck?” Mu Gutian smiled coldly but did not say more, focusing intently on Qin Chen's position, his eyes filled with excitement.
Perhaps among everyone, only he realized that Qin Chen was comprehending the Twelve Heavens of the Holy Array and was not deliberately stalling for time.
“This kid is purposely waiting until the end to carve the array patterns so that he can comprehend each step of the Twelve Heavens of the Holy Array for a little longer. He is using this Twelve Heavens of the Holy Array to enhance himself. Incredible! Did he really figure it out? Or is it just luck?”
Mu Gutian’s eyes widened.
He was the only one who understood that the Holy Array of the Twelve Heavens was not merely a tool for assessment. The creator of the Tian Gong had once imitated the lost array laws of the ancient heavenly realm to create the Twelve Heavens of the Holy Array. Its primary purpose was to help Refiners improve their array cultivation and comprehend the essence of array patterns.
