The morning light is faint, and the mountain breeze is cool.

In the guest room of the temple, dressed in a green shirt, exuding a lazy atmosphere from the top and bottom of the dusk, dragging his cheeks, sitting by the desk and flipping through the books in his hands.

Guo Jing sent the "Wu Mu's Testament" to dusk as a thank you, but one day, it was returned by dusk. After all, in the future, Xiangyang City will rely on Guo Jing's strength to protect it, and without battlefield weapons such as "Wu Mu's Testament", although Guo Juxia's martial arts are still outstanding, it is difficult to reach the sky if he wants to hold Xiangyang for decades.

Of course, although the "Wu Mu Testament" was returned to Guo Jing, in the heart of being cheap and not taking advantage of nothing, relying on the ability to never forget, Dusk still took the opportunity to forcibly remember the entire "Wu Mu's Testament" in his mind. It's just that he can be said to be blind to the marching formation, but he can't figure out the military strategy formation in the book.

Resting in the hermitage of Master Yideng, there is nothing big in the mountains, and I don't want to face Guo Jing and Huang Rong all day long, and find abuse by myself, it just so happens that Zhu Ziliu has some books on basic formations, and he borrowed them to study them at dusk.

To put it nicely, the study of the formation is to think that there are many skills and not to press down, to be honest, since you have obtained the "Wu Mu Testament", it can't be wasted, and you can take it out and pretend to be a wave when you have nothing to do in the future.

In the morning, after reading the books in my hand at random, I rubbed my slightly swollen head at dusk, lay on the ground at will, closed my eyes and began to sort out the bits and pieces in my mind.

Formations, in general, are divided into two types and six levels.

There are two types, one is the living formation and the other is the death formation.

The six levels, from low to high, are the primary basic formation, the primary entry formation, the intermediate small formation, the intermediate large formation, the advanced earth-level formation and the advanced heaven-level formation.

The theory of the level of this formation was spread from the side of the Han Empire, the suzerain, and the specific formation, such as the Southern Song Dynasty, did not even have an intermediate Dacheng formation, let alone the legendary high-level formation.

Whether it is the "Northern Yan Hengwei Formation" of the Jin Kingdom or the "Wolf Walking Iron Cavalry Formation" of Mongolia, they all belong to the category of primary formations, that is, the thirteen soldiers of the Yue family, which are regarded as classics, and most of them are also primary formations. After reading the entire "Wu Mu's Testament", Dusk naturally understood that among the thirteen soldiers, according to the introduction in the book, there was only one that could barely be called an intermediate formation. Moreover, even if it can be said to be an intermediate formation, it is also at the bottom of the intermediate small formation formation.

"Is the formation as awesome as the book says!" The introduction of the formation level in the reminiscence book, to be honest, Dusk doesn't believe it, how can it be said that the Southern Song Dynasty is also a feudal country that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and there is not even an intermediate Dacheng formation. Moreover, according to the power of the formation introduced in the book, if nothing else, the most advanced marching formation can make hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops travel tens of thousands of miles a day.

Your sister, what kind of terrifying speed, tens of thousands of people a day, is it difficult to fly, this is faster than the high-speed rail in the previous life, how is it possible, the record in this book must be false, the three of them become tigers, even if the suzerain, the Han Empire, has a more advanced formation than the Southern Song Dynasty, but it should not be possible to have such a perverted gap!

Complaining in my heart, getting rid of the doubts about the level of the formation, Dusk still puts his mind on the classification of the formation, as for the awesomeness recorded in the book, Dusk is purely as if the author is bragging.

On the whole, the classification of formations is very simple, there are only two types: life and death.

The formation of the living formation, the formation of the living people. The so-called formation is a people-oriented, arranged formation, in other words, the formation can be said to be a military formation. Whether it is a 10,000-strong army formation, a small killing array of three or five people, or even a large marching array of hundreds of thousands, it is all a living formation.

With the help of people's flexible movement, the formation is unpredictable, elusive, and powerful. The power of the formation, in addition to depending on the level of the formation itself, also tests the tacit understanding of the formation and the familiarity of the person who leads the formation.

For example, the Quanzhen Sect can be said to be the "Tiangang Beidou Sword Array" of the Zhenjiao Formation, although it is derived from the "Chaotic Star Array" of the small killing array, but after the improvement of Wang Chongyang and other Void Realm powerhouses, the level has already been qualitatively improved, and the power is far from being comparable to the "Chaotic Star Array" composed of seven people.

The seven sons of Quanzhen formed the "Tiangang Beidou Sword Array", relying on the cultivation of the seven people out of the physical realm, they could face the Eastern Evil Yellow Medicine Master at the peak of the Chengwu Realm, relying on the transformation of the sword formation and the tacit cooperation between each other, not only fighting back and forth with Huang Yaoshi, but even not falling behind for a while, this kind of cross-level battle is the manifestation of the power of the "Tiangang Beidou Sword Formation".

However, if you casually pull out seven martial artists who are out of the body realm and even the peak of the body realm, and form a seven-person "Chaotic Star Array", or form a "Tiangang Beidou Sword Formation" that they are not familiar with, although they can still forcibly cross the realm to fight, but this is already very reluctant, if it is really against a master of the level of Huang Laoxi, not to mention that there are back and forth, I am afraid that it will not pose much threat to it at all.

The reason why the formation is called the formation is because the eyes and sources of the formation are people!

For an ordinary formation, the eye of the formation is not only the source of the formation, but also the leader of the entire large array. It's okay to live in the array, especially the kind of 10,000-person large array, because of the large number of people, the power required for the operation of the large array can be shared by all the members who make up the large array, although the layout of the 10,000-person life array is very complicated, but the requirements for the formation source, that is to say, the cultivation of the person who controls the large array, the requirements are not particularly high.

Like the "Northern Yan Hengwei Formation" and "Wolf Walking Iron Cavalry Formation", these formations only test the master's understanding and perception of the formation, as well as the quality of the formation army, and do not have too high requirements for their own martial arts cultivation. Even if it is the "Tiangang Beidou Sword Formation", although there are also people who serve as the source of the formation eye, there is no obvious difference in the consumption in the formation, and there is no more consumption of their internal strength because one of them serves as the formation eye and the formation source. Or, to be more precise, in fact, like a formation of less than 100 people, basically the requirements for the eye and the source of the formation are not high, because the composition of the personnel is too small, every position is very important, this kind of "small killing formation" of the formation members, need to watch each other, each other is the horns, any one person's mistakes, will affect the normal operation of the entire formation.

Therefore, the source of the formation is not important.

However, there are also some special formations that require the strong urging of the formation source.

This kind of formation can be said to be a forbidden formation, the average martial artist simply can't withstand the consumption of this kind of 10,000-person large array, if the internal strength of the formation source martial artist can't provide the energy needed for the operation of the formation, and the big array is not terminated, then the running formation will directly forcibly extract the vitality of the formation source and even the entire large array to maintain the operation of the entire large array.

Therefore, the source of this formation must be a martial artist whose realm has reached a certain level. If the person in control of the formation, that is, the person who serves as the eye of the formation, cannot achieve his cultivation, and he is unwilling to extract everyone's life force, he must separate the source of the formation from the eye of the formation, and find a martial artist with a high enough cultivation to serve as the source of the formation. At this time, the array eye is responsible for controlling the large array, and the array source only needs to urge the large array to run.

"It seems that none of the Yue family's thirteen soldiers have requirements for the cultivation of the master!" Rubbing his frowning brows, Dusk complained in his heart: "This can't be another legend, it's unreliable!" ”
