Watering the plants himself would waste some of Levis cultivation time. If he could refine the Cloud Mist array and make a few sets to cover all of his herbal fields, he could rely on the arrays to gather the ingredients that were beneficial to the growth of herbs and nourish them continuously. This way, Levi could free up his time.

Refining a Cloud Mist array required 144 types of spell runes and 12 array items. Each array item needed to be solidified with the corresponding spell runes and placed at a specific position.

It was relatively easy to find the materials for crafting such low-level arrays. Levi had asked Manla to collect some from the Blacksail Wizard Market. These materials allowed Levi to craft about 20 Cloud Mist arrays. The materials for crafting a Cloud Mist array cost about 100 Aether Stones, which was not expensive. It was much cheaper than making an alchemical creature like the Swordsman Mantis.

Levi had calculated that with the size of his herbal field, 12 Cloud Mist arrays could cover all the herbs that needed nourishment.

Therefore, he only needed to refine 12 arrays successfully.

On Black Fire Island, Levi went underground with these materials to refine the arrays. There was a fire cave deep in the abode where he lived. Red lava, rich in raging fire element power, flowed in the fire cave.

Levi mumbled, Its a pity I dont know how to make weapons. Otherwise, this lava would be perfect for making weapons.

Crafting items for arrays was similar to crafting weapons, but arrays were much more complex. Even the simplest Cloud Mist array required 144 different spell runes. Levi had to imprint these spell runes into his spiritual force before he could solidify them onto the array items, similar to solidifying ordinary spells.

Fortunately, the Book of Cypher was extensive and profound. Although it only recorded some low-level arrays, it was an encyclopedia of array knowledge. It detailed how to start from zero basics to forming beginner arrays and becoming a qualified array wizard. In addition, Levi had some talent in this field of study, so he now had some confidence in refining the Cloud Mist array. He placed the materials for the array into a special refining vessel and lowered them into the lava. He began to refine them. As he refined them, he also needed to recite the corresponding incantation and perform the related hand seals.

The refining cycle of the array was long. Levi focused all his attention on refining the array items. He cultivated Meditation Arts to recover his spiritual force during breaks. He even temporarily stopped cultivating breathing techniques. He was determined to complete this array as soon as possible so that he could move on to refining the few first-circle arrays he wanted.

Half a month later, Levi finally completed the first Cloud Mist array. His first attempt was naturally a failure. After the array item was inserted into the ground, it could not be activated.

This was inevitable for his first attempt, but Levi was not discouraged.

At the very least, this failed refinement had increased his proficiency by nearly 200 points. The process helped him to grasp the knowledge he had gained from the book firmly.

Levi was refining arrays while comprehending the Book of Cypher. His array proficiency was increasing rapidly. Refining arrays was much more complicated than Levi had imagined. He failed again and again. However, with sufficient money and time, he had nothing to fear.

It was the Year 1030 of the Holy Brilliance Calendar, the Month of Beginning.

Levi officially entered his 40s. However, he looked no different from when he was in his 20s. After all, Winnie had mistaken him for a 40-year-old uncle long ago.

In the past half a year, Levi had been devoted to only one task: refining arrays.

After a total of 12 failures, Levi had gone numb. He took out the 13th set of array items and went to the herbal field on Fire Dragon Peak. Most of the herbs Levi had planted had already sprouted and grew nicely.

The four Swordsman Mantises patrolled the herbal field like robots in an orderly manner, preventing some hateful seagulls and other seabirds from stealing the precious medicinal herb seedlings.

Levi chanted an incantation, and 12 array flags embedded with Aether Stones flew out. They turned into streams of light and surrounded a herbal field where Blue Fire Grass was planted. Then, streams of white light shot out from these array flags and connected with each other, finally forming an array.

As the array activated, wisps of white smoke diffused into a mist. The mist filled the herbal field and lingered. Drops of nutritious dew condensed on the leaves and roots of the Blue Fire Grass.

I succeeded.

Levi heaved a deep sigh of relief. With this success, refining the other arrays would be easy..
