Seeing that, Lin Yan could not help but frown, and asked Mo Xuan beside him: ”Mo Xuan, do you remember that there is a type of array formation, with the shape of the Big Dipper, connected to each other, which can be added onto spirit treasures, and absorb spirit energy by itself, secretly activating the array?”

Hearing Lin Yan's words, Mo Xuan frowned, but he thought to himself, for Mo Xuan, arrays were nothing to him, just by looking at it, he would be able to know where it came from, its origin, its core, and the key to breaking through the array.

However, Mo Xuan didn't know much about formations that could be placed on artifacts. Especially ancient formations, Mo Xuan had no way of knowing.

Therefore, facing Lin Yan's question, Mo Xuan shook his head, indicating that he was unable to help.

After hearing Lin Yan's words, he could not help but close his eyes to think for a moment, and then said to Lin Yan: ”You're talking about the legendary Seven Stars Hidden Spirit Formation, this formation is extremely small, if placed on top of the Spirit Treasure, it can hide the level of the Spirit Treasure, and at the same time, restrain the aura of the Spirit Treasure to prevent it from being too obvious.”

In his mind, he had an impression of this array. He remembered when he was reading some books on array glyphs in the Scripture Pavilion, he had once seen this array, there were seven stars on this array, from left to right, it was as follows: Tianshu, Tianxuan, Phecda, Tianqian, Yuheng, Kaiyang, Yaoheng, Dianliang, seven positions.

These seven locations resonated with each other and formed a unique entity from beginning to end. It could absorb the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth and operate as usual. The spiritual energy could supplement the formation and, as long as it was activated, it would not stop.

Thinking up to here, Lin Yan smiled and said to Jiu Zun, ”Ninth Master, if I'm not mistaken, the array formation on this Star Gauze Sword is the Seven Star Hidden Spirit Formation.”

”What?” Seven Stars Hidden Spirit Formation? ”Impossible, if there really is an array formation on this sword, then it might be seen by the elders of the auction house already. There is no way they would be so careless.” Ninth Elder shook his head, he did not believe what Lin Yan had said. He held the Star Gauze Sword and looked through it, but he could not find any traces of an array.

Lin Yan laughed and said: ”If I am not mistaken, the sword's tip is gold, and the person who set up the array on the spirit sword must not want anyone to know where the array is, thus, he used the flower juice of the Golden Brilliant Flower as ink, the metal powder as a guide, and a special method to make these two materials become one, and engraved them on the sword blade's back, his goal is to hide the sword's grade.”

After pausing for a moment, Lin Yan continued, ”So, the golden sword tip and the golden formation are almost one. That's why it is hard to see the secrets of the formation with the naked eye.

Hearing this, Ninth Elder and Mo Xuan were shocked, they frowned as they looked at the Stargaze Sword in front of Lin Yan, but no matter how they looked at it, they could not see any clues.

Lin Yan looked at the two of them, and laughed: ”I know you two have doubts about my words, it doesn't matter, once I break this array, I will prove it to you two.”

With that, Lin Yan handed over the Star Gauze Sword to his left hand, then raised two fingers with his right hand. The tip of his finger gently swept across the back of the sword, and the Purple Void Pupil Skill operated to its limits, carefully staring at the Seven Stars Hidden Spirit Formation on the sword. After taking a deep breath, Lin Yan's fingertips quickly tapped the back of the sword, following the order of the Seven Stars, and made seven crisp sounds in a row, which were extremely pleasing to the ear.
