The sun is shining and the sky is cloudless.

After Li Cao had breakfast, he came to Lin Yunxuan and entered a bamboo house. Sitting cross-legged, the spiritual energy under his feet gushed in, and instantly dispersed. Being in the middle of it is like sitting on the clouds.

Li Cao retracted his mind, calmed down, and remained motionless like a mountain. Running the exercise 'grass and trees grow', the sea of qi in the body is surging, and the aura is gurgling and flowing. Almost after a stick of incense, the calm aura in the room seemed to be blown by the breeze, and began to rotate slowly, gradually gathering around Li Cao, submerging his whole body. The breath became long, and the Heaven and Earth Origin Spiritual Qi began to pour into Li Cao's body, and the spiritual energy flowing in the spiritual veins increased, as if a mountain torrent broke out in a valley stream, and finally rushed into the sea of qi.

Since it was only a small realm ascension, I didn't encounter any difficulties, but it took time and sat for a few hours. With the passage of time, the aura surrounding the plum grass has changed, becoming colorful and colorful, which is the unique feature of the wood aura, which can make the origin aura of heaven and earth turn into various colors of aura, and attract them will not dissipate. Li Cao felt that the sea of qi was full, and his body no longer inhaled the spiritual energy, knowing that he had succeeded, he stopped running the exercises. When I opened my eyes, my eyes were like electricity, and then the light was restrained.

Standing up, he couldn't help but raise his arm excitedly, stretched out his index finger, and the aura came out of his body, and he instantly attached a little fluorescent, which was very good-looking.

"Sure enough, only when you reach the peak of the Spirit Realm can you attract all kinds of spiritual energy so quickly, and you can stimulate the array paper. Li Cao muttered to herself with satisfaction.

Li Cao couldn't wait to leave Lin Yunxuan and rushed to Baiyanchang, wanting to try what the effect of the teacher's array paper was on him. Walked all the way without stopping. Entering the stone house of Baiyanchang, he immediately took out the green paper from the storage ring. I was a little apprehensive and expectant, I didn't know if I could succeed, and I didn't know how powerful the array paper that the teacher gave me was.

Holding the green paper between his two fingers and running the exercises, the aura in his body shot out, and the array paper instantly burst out with dazzling red light, covering his own ghostly green aura.

Li Cao was shocked, but then he became confused, and the array paper kept emitting a dazzling light, but there was no other change, and he couldn't help but suspect that he had done something wrong, and he was a little overwhelmed.

Suddenly, the paper burst into flames, and instead of turning into ashes, two bright red characters 'haha' appeared in the air. Li Cao knew at a glance that it was the teacher's masterpiece, which was in line with his witty character. Looking at the handwriting that gradually faded until it disappeared, although it was different from what he expected in his heart, the teacher's joking behavior also made him not feel lost, and it was a little warm.

Li Cao originally planned to go directly to Teacher Zhao Hong and tell him the news that he had successfully broken through to the peak of the Spirit Realm, and then ask what he should do in the future and what precautions he should have. But I thought that two days later would be the day when the teacher would teach again, so I didn't rush it.

Li Cao walked out of the white rock field, her stomach gurgling, she didn't expect it to take so long, it was already sunset. Fortunately, the college is sympathetic to the students and knows that it is not easy to practice and it is easy to forget to eat and sleep, so it decided that there will be meals in the canteen every 12 hours, and of course the types of meals at other times will be simpler than meals.

When I came to the dining hall, there were only a few people eating inside. Because she was too hungry, Li Cao directly ordered two bowls of beef noodles to fill her stomach.

---

Two days later, after the lecture was over and the classmates who asked the question had left, Li Cao found the teacher and said happily: "Teacher, I am now a cultivator at the peak strength of the Spirit Present Realm. ”

Teacher Zhao Hong looked happy when he heard this, "Really, why didn't you hear you say that you want to break through the realm a few days ago?"

"Because I don't know when I will be able to break through the realm, I didn't bother the teacher, didn't I tell the teacher as soon as possible?" Li Cao said with a smile.

"You kid is in a hurry to know what to do next, by the way, tell me. Teacher Zhao Hong joked.

"Teacher, I have to say that you got the order wrong, I want to share this good news with you, and then let you pass on some skills. Li Cao smiled and argued.

Zhao Hong pointed at Li Cao and said with a smile: "You kid is also cheeky now, okay, since this is the case, I will agree with your statement." By the way, did you inspire that array paper I gave you?"

"Well, it's been stimulated, and that array paper really fits the teacher's style. Li Cao said helplessly.

"Haha, I figured it out myself, in fact, we can do a lot of fun things through the formation, of course, the most important thing is definitely not to do these. The next thing you have to do is to continue to improve the strength of the realm, and at the same time start to practice drawing the formation map, which is somewhat similar to writing, but does not pay attention to the charm and artistic conception, only cares about the priority of the pen, these are the key to the success of the formation map. Oh, and also remember that the formation diagram should be written in one stroke, and it should not be broken in the middle, because the continuation will not be able to control the amount of pen and ink. Zhao Hong said seriously.

Li Cao nodded yes.

"Of course, drawing a formation diagram is inseparable from pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and the inkstone can be used ordinary. As for paper, I use ordinary paper for my usual practice, and for combat, I need the kind of cyan paper I gave you, and I'll give you some. As for the pen, it is not an ordinary sheep's pen, a wolf's pen, or something, because they are not too much ink made of spirit stones, and it is easy to fail when used to draw a formation map, of course, you can still use it in an emergency. The pens we commonly use are made from animal hair called Jade Rabbit, and if you practice skillfully, you will generally not fail. ”

Zhao Hong said, the light of the finger flashed, and a brush appeared, the pen shaft is white jade, snow white and lush, and the animal hair at the end of the pen is as crystal clear as white jade, "This one is made of the hair of the jade rabbit, I made it myself, and it has been used for a hundred years, which is very convenient." Look, be careful, don't break it. ”

Li Cao took it carefully, and started delicately, with a slight feeling of coolness, and I liked it very much.

Zhao Hong took the jade pen and said with a smile: "I can't give it to you, so don't think about it." But don't worry, although the pen given to you by the academy is not as good as mine, it is not bad. ”

Although Li Cao likes that jade pen, he also knows the truth that a gentleman does not take away the favor of others, not to mention that it is the thing of a teacher he respects. As for the teacher's jokes, I have long been accustomed to them.

"By the way, I also want to tell you that in the academy over the years, the academy will provide everything you need to practice, but it is not unlimited, of course, the academy is not too stingy, enough for you to practice. After you leave the academy, everything will have to be solved on your own, so I will make it clear to you so that you don't get deceived when you go out. There are three most common types of paper we need to draw the formation diagram, one is white, which will be slightly red under the light, and we call it 'plum snow paper'. One is the cyan paper made by our academy itself, which is called 'green leaf paper'. The third type is golden paper, which is called 'gold leaf paper'. These three kinds of paper have their own advantages and disadvantages, Meixue paper is the most tough and strong, while gold leaf paper retains the aura for the longest time, and our green leaf paper is the most balanced. In the case of a pen, in fact, the most important thing is the nib, the most common is the nib made of jade rabbit fur I told you. There are also some made of the tail hair of the divine beast Chiyan Tiger, but because the Chiyan Tiger is very powerful, it is still relatively rare, and I haven't used it, so I don't know how effective it is. If you are lucky enough to get it in the future, you can show it to me when you have time, so that I can open my eyes...... But I wasn't worth wasting your time as an old man then, was I?"

Li Cao hurriedly said: "Teacher, I will definitely not forget your kindness, if I ...... in the future"

Zhao Hong interrupted: "Okay, okay, I thought you had become humorous just now, but it turns out that this is still the case." It's good that you're loyal and gentle. But after you go out, you have to be more open-minded, after all, some bad guys are very cunning and hypocritical, and they can't be seen through at a glance. ”

Li Cao listened to the teacher's advice and admitted: "I must remember it, teacher." ”

"Alas, it's still the same sentence, I don't know the specific taste of it without experiencing it, but it's always good to have a preparation in my heart. Zhao Hong said softly, "Okay, let's continue to talk about the formation map, there is only one ink left, I have briefly told you before, this is the foundation of our ability to use the formation to fight against people, it is also related to the power of the formation, because the quality of the spirit stone is high and low, so the lower the realm strength, it is best to use the ink made of high-quality spirit stone." Do you know what kind of spirit stone you're going to use?"

"Teacher, how can there be so many high-grade spirit stones for me? I can't afford to use them?" Li Cao couldn't help but say.

"When you practice, you can use ink made of inferior spirit stones, don't waste it. However, the array paper used for battle is drawn with medium spirit stones at the most, otherwise the power is insufficient. And you have to keep in mind that because we need to activate the array paper in battle, that is to say, the attack will be relatively slow, so when fighting with people, you must pay more attention to the body dodge, so you can't slack off in peacetime, unless you just want to bully people who are not as good as yourself. Zhao Hong reminded.

"Got it, teacher. Li Cao agreed.

Zhao Hong put away the jade pen, took out a piece of green leaf paper that had already drawn the formation, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to know how to confirm that our array paper can be used?"

"Of course, I've been waiting for the teacher to talk about this. Li Cao said.

"There's really nothing to talk about about this, it's just that practice makes perfect. Zhao Hong said, holding the green leaf paper between his fingers, and an imperceptible green light appeared on his fingertips, which quickly flowed along the pen and ink on the paper, and the place became a slightly eye-catching green glow. From beginning to end, the flow flowed smoothly without a pause.

"See, this is the way to test whether you are successful, to control your aura, neither too much, nor too little. Otherwise, it will stimulate the formation, or it will have no effect. This degree cannot be described to you in words, you can only slowly explore it by yourself and try it over and over again. Actually, practice is a very boring thing, and you should have experienced it. ”

"Yes, it's just a boring repetition. Li Caoxin said.

"So the practice pays attention to a fixed word, simmers slowly, and boils. But the benefits are also great, at least you can live a long time. Zhao Hong smiled, "Okay, that's pretty much it, you can go with me now to get paper, ink, pen and inkstone, go." ”

"Okay. Li Cao said happily.
