Chapter 187: The First Entry of the Formation
I saw a large white cocoon, enveloping the big black ball, and then the cocoon began to slowly become smaller, until it shrank to the size of an ordinary human, and then it stopped.
When it stopped changing, Situ Nan could no longer feel any breath of life from the other party, but he had another feeling that as long as the other party survived this level, he would be a new life!
As for the transmission that this big guy gave him before, he also understood what the other party meant; "Don't worry, I'm tired, I need to sleep, and I'll be fine when I wake up." ”
Therefore, Situ Nan will wait and wait for the other party to wake up!
......
Pushing the door out, Situ Nan walked out of the cultivation secret room, at this time it was already a day after he entered the cultivation secret room, if it weren't for the fact that he was going to go to Xue Ming today to learn formation knowledge, I'm afraid he would have to continue to stay in the cultivation secret room.
"Situ, are you out?
As soon as Situ Nan came out, a cordial greeting belonging to Zhang Ping appeared in his ears, looking at Zhang Ping and Yingchen in front of him, Situ Nan couldn't help but be stunned, "Why are you all here?"
When Yingchen heard this, he answered, "It's not you yesterday, Brother Zhang told me that you came back with a gloomy face, and you didn't say hello, and you were worried all night! ”
"It's exaggerated, it's not as exaggerated as you say. Situ, looking at you like this, there should be nothing wrong, right?"
"Well," Situ Nan looked at the two people in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart, "It's taken care of for the time being, you two don't have to worry, don't you still have the task of the academy today?" ”
Seeing that Situ Nan's face returned to normal, and he didn't ignore people like he did yesterday, Zhang Ping suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Situ Nan didn't want to tell him about the two of them, so he didn't ask more, nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll go." ”
When Yingchen saw Zhang Ping's appearance, he knew that Situ Nan at this time was no longer as problematic as yesterday, so he nodded together and said, "Then I'll leave too." ”
"Let's go, I'm fine!Oh yes, I'm going out too, I have to go to Master Xue today to learn the formation." ”
"Then let's go out together. ”
"Well, let's go, Brother Zhang, and Yingchen. ”
With that, the three of them walked out of the gate of the cave, and then the three of them rushed towards their own destinations.
......
Soon, Situ Nan came to the location of the Formation Law Academy and knocked on the door of Xue Ming's office.
After five breaths, the door of Xue Ming's office opened by itself, and Situ Nan deliberately recalled it, and found that this time was exactly the same as the time it took for the other party to open the door when he came here to find Xue Ming before.
After entering the door, Xue Ming sat on the office chair as usual, looked at Situ Nan and said, "Here, I thought you were going to release my pigeon again today." ”
When Situ Nan heard this, he smiled bitterly, "Master Xue, don't make fun of me, there was really something wrong last time." ”
"Well, understood. I can break through a small realm in one night, and I will go too, break through the cultivation, who doesn't like it. By the way, I heard that you went to the ring area yesterday? It seems that your cultivation is almost consolidated?"
"It's almost, when I was cultivating there before, I kept pressing, and I didn't let my cultivation break through too quickly, so it wasn't too troublesome to consolidate. ”
Hearing this, Xue Ming nodded, "I have to praise you for this." Although in that environment, you have only raised one level in it, but it is precisely because of this that I am more optimistic about you, and you understand the reason for this, right?"
"Understood! It's too fast and unstable. ”
"That's right, it's just too fast and unstable. In fact, the academy had also opened that set of formations for a few students before, allowing each other to absorb these spiritual powers, but among them, only a very few people knew this, and some of them might know, but they were lost in front of that kind of spiritual power.
As a result, at the end of the day, their cultivation has improved a lot, but their cultivation has come to an end, so after that, the academy rarely gives students this thing as a reward. ”
Situ Nan nodded first, and then asked with some puzzlement, "Then why don't you tell those students before they enter the formation? If someone mentions it, they shouldn't absorb spiritual power like that, right?"
When Xue Ming heard this, he shook his head, "You think too simply. There are two reasons for this, the first is that even if we tell those people, in the face of that majestic spiritual power, many people should still be tempted.
Didn't I say before that there were smart people among those people, and I thought about it before that, but as time went on, there would always be people who got carried away under the temptation of that spiritual power, and then they didn't care about it. ”
Situ Nan bowed slightly, and then asked, "What is the second point?"
"The second point, don't forget, we are an academy, what we need to do is to teach you students, but as the so-called master leads the door to practice, we will teach you what we should teach, but how to do it depends on yourself.
In the face of such majestic spiritual power, absorbing too much, too quickly, and then advancing too quickly, is there no teacher who has taught these things in the course?
But even so, there are still so many students who will lose self-control in the face of temptation, then these people, our academy can basically give up, after all, we can't even tell the difference between such obvious gains and losses, naturally we don't deserve to invest in him in depth, in this way, we can save more resources, why not?"
When Situ Nan heard this, he thought for a while, and found that what Xue Ming said made sense, just like when he was on the earth, many people had frequent opinions on the "test-oriented education" in his country, but why didn't the country cancel this test-oriented education?
It is precisely because of the limited educational resources that the country cannot do everything, and perhaps the exam-oriented education teaches a group of nerds, but if a person can't even stand the initial cramming education, and can't even memorize by rote and endure boredom, then it is understandable to remove more educational resources from these people.
In other words, the previous academy gave those students the cultivation of the No. 1 Cave Mansion as a reward, which was more of an alternative kind of "fishing law enforcement", and those who could resist the temptation and increase the inclination of his resources, and those who couldn't bear it could temporarily discard him in the scrap area.
If the other party can still break through the world in this situation, the academy will naturally vigorously cultivate it again, if not, what is the pity of giving up?
"Okay, that's not what you should be thinking about right now, let's go, let's go to class. Seeing Situ Nan's thoughtful look, Xue Ming smiled dumbly, and then opened his mouth to interrupt Situ Nan's thoughts.
Hearing this, Situ Nan bowed slightly, these are really not things he should consider at this time, for him, cultivation and improvement of the realm is the most important thing, and the appearance of the different energy before has already made him feel a sense of crisis.
"Good. ”
"Then let's go. ”
As Xue Ming's words fell, I saw him stretch out his hand and wave, and the bodies of him and Situ Nan were slightly distorted, and then disappeared.
After Situ Nan waved his hand to Xue Ming, he suddenly felt a familiar sense of spatial distortion appear on him, which was different from the feeling of riding the long-distance teleportation array before, and if he wanted to say it, it was the closest to the feeling that Situ Gong had teleported with him before.
But at that time, Situ Gong was using a formation, and Xue Ming was just a casual wave!
After having a new understanding of Xue Ming's formation ability, Situ Nan began to look at the surrounding environment, only to see that he and Xue Ming seemed to be in a forest at this time, surrounded by woods and full of greenery.
Seeing the surrounding scene, Situ Nan couldn't help but start thinking about where they were, because this green scene had not been seen in the academy before.
When he was in the academy, there were all kinds of buildings around, and although there were trees, there were not many, let alone this kind of scene of trees in the forest, but in the mountains outside the back door of the academy, when Situ Nan went there a few days ago, there was a cold wind and there was no such greenery, so Situ Nan was thinking about where else in the academy there was this kind of greenery.
Looking at Situ Nan's gaze looking around, Xue Ming said lightly, "Don't look at it, this place is not in the academy, so you must not have been here." ”
"Not in the academy?" Situ Nan was slightly stunned when he heard this.
Seeing Situ Nan's appearance, Xue Ming frowned and said, "Why, don't you know that you can roughly feel the distance you teleport from the side effects of teleportation? Although you haven't learned this knowledge systematically, these things should be common sense, right? You can't tell the difference between short-distance teleportation and long-distance teleportation?"
"Huh?" Situ Nan was even more stunned when he heard Xue Ming's words, and said in confusion, "I feel like it's similar to taking a short-distance teleportation in normal times......"
As Situ Nan was talking, he reacted, and the time he teleported with Situ Gong seemed to be not so close.
At that time, because he was attracted by his cultivation attribute problem, he didn't notice this, and at this time, thinking about it, Situ Gong could actually arrange a long-distance teleportation array, although it was relying on the array flag, but this was not something ordinary people could do.
For a while, Situ Nan couldn't help but be interested in his cheap father's past. However, in the blink of an eye, Situ Nan also thought of one thing, that is, he really didn't feel too much discomfort from the previous teleportation!
With a move in his heart, Situ Nan said to Xue Ming, "Master Xue, it seems that I have made a breakthrough this time, and my adaptability to the formation has improved a lot, so I haven't been able to feel it." ”
"Oh?" Xue Ming couldn't help but glance at Situ Nan when he heard this, and then after thinking for a moment, he said, "You can try it." ”
As he spoke, Xue Ming took out a few array flags from his storage ring, threw them on the ground, turned them into a circle, and then said to Situ Nan, "You come in." ”
Seeing this, Situ Nan took two steps forward and entered this small circle drawn by the array flag.
After Situ Nan entered, Xue Ming started to urge the formation and said, "If you can't hold it, tell me." ”
Hearing this, Situ Nan nodded.
As Xue Ming's words fell, Situ Nan only felt that the air around him had changed.
In the past, this air was as imperceptible to ordinary people as water was to fish, but for a monk like Situ Nan, this air was not only that, the spiritual power contained in it was also in friendly exchanges with him all the time, and the two sides were like partners, cordial and harmonious.
But at this time, as Xue Ming drove the formation, these friendly spiritual powers were like soldiers who were full of hostility to Situ Nan, using their own bodies to wave their swords at Situ Nan.
Not only that, but those ordinary airs without spiritual power are like the people of a country, although they did not show their swords to Situ Nan, but they looked at Situ Nan with hostile "eyes" one by one, embattled, that is, Situ Nan's current situation.
At the beginning, these hostilities and the sword from these spiritual power Situ Nan didn't care, compared to it, the quality of the spiritual power contained in his body was far better than the spiritual power of the outside world, but as the formation continued to increase, Situ Nan's pressure was gradually increasing.
If it was only a group of children who waved their immature fists at Situ Nan at the beginning, then after that, it was adults and warriors who were attacking Situ Nan.
In the back, these mighty forces turned into monks who had ascended to the realm one by one, and what they launched against Situ Nan was not a fist and foot attack, but a martial art!
Looking at Situ Nan's more and more solemn expression, the surprise in Xue Ming's eyes became more and more intense, because the formation coercion he exerted on Situ Nan at this time was already able to make an ordinary monk in the early stage of entering the house unbearable, but at this time, Situ Nan's face was only a little more solemn, and as for the pain, even unbearable expression, it had not yet appeared on Situ Nan's face.
Seeing this, Xue Ming stretched out his hand, and in an instant, the pressure on Situ Nan increased again, and the pressure at this time had risen to the limit of the mid-stage monk's bearing!
But at this time, although Situ Nan's head was covered with sweat, his body was still standing extremely steady, and he didn't even shake it.
"If you can't bear it, you tell me that you don't need to speak, just move your body down. ”
After Xue Ming's words fell, Situ Nan moved, but he was not showing weakness to Xue Ming, but raised his head, looked at Xue Ming, and smiled slightly!
Seeing this, Xue Ming glanced at Situ Nan deeply, and then, with a wave of his hand, the pressure directly crossed the limit of the late stage of entering the room, and was in vain promoted to the peak of entering the room!
"Tear the ......"
After Xue Ming raised the pressure, a slight sound sounded from Situ Nan's body, and at the same time, Situ Nan's body also began to shake slightly, crumbling, but he didn't fall.
After perceiving Situ Nan's state, Xue Ming couldn't help but slow down the improvement of the formation, and his eyes were staring at Situ Nan deadly, for fear that something would happen to the other party under this heavy pressure.
Different from Xue Ming's nervousness, Situ Nan had a different feeling at this time, at this time he could feel that his spirit was not bad, at least he didn't feel too much pressure, but his physical body was a little unbearable, if Xue Ming increased even a little bit of pressure, his physical body would definitely be hit hard.
I knew in my heart that my soul had gone through several crossings after all, so he was still a lot ahead of the body that had only started cultivating in this life, and this was still under the condition that he had divided his spiritual power, otherwise, his spiritual power cultivation would far exceed that of his physical body cultivation as he did at the beginning.
"Click"
Situ Nan controlled his body and moved down slightly, but the bones on his body made a sound, as if he was overwhelmed.
Sensing Situ Nan's actions, Xue Ming immediately began to reduce the power of the formation, and he did not directly withdraw the formation, because in that case, it would be like alternating hot and cold, but it would cause Situ Nan to suffer secondary damage.
As the formation slowly weakened, Situ Nan also slowly adapted to the pressure from the outside world, and tried to move his body, he found that he was no longer in trouble, so he spoke, "Master Xue, it's okay." ”
Seeing this, Xue Mingcai completely withdrew the formation, and after casually putting away the formation flag, Xue Mingcai spoke, "Good boy, your bearing ability is much stronger than I did back then!"
When Situ Nan heard this, he shook his head slightly, "I almost couldn't bear it just now." ”
"Hehe, you have to know one thing first, the pressure just exerted on you, even if it is some half-step Dengfeng to bear, it may not be easy, you are just in the early stage of entering the room, enough is enough!"
Seeing that Situ Nan was still humble, Xue Ming couldn't help but say, "Okay, I said yes, it's okay, no matter how humble you are, it's hypocrisy." Besides, if this is nothing at all, then wouldn't your teacher and I be like a mighty man back then? My limit is only the hurdle from the middle to the late stage of entering the room. ”
Seeing this, Situ Nan didn't say anything more, in fact, the reason why he thought he wasn't enough before was that he remembered his apprentices.
Ahem, don't mention the past, let's look back.
Seeing that Situ Nan didn't say much, Xue Ming continued, "Judging from your previous performance, there is basically no problem for you to withstand the formations below the Dengfeng Realm, as long as it is not the kind of formation that is particularly powerful and has to cause a lot of pressure on yourself, you should have no problem in using it in the future."
When your cultivation is promoted to the middle stage of entering the room, you should be able to cast the formations below the Dengfeng Realm, and if your resistance to coercion can still maintain this state, you can even start to try to arrange formations against the monks of the Dengfeng Realm. ”
As he spoke, looking at Situ Nan, who was a little surprised, Xue Ming poured cold water and said, "But before that, you have to learn first, how to become a formation mage, don't forget, now you can't even use the formation flag!"
When Situ Nan heard this, he bowed his head and said yes, although he didn't even know how to use the formation flag as Xue Ming said, and it was okay to arrange a few small formations, but in front of the formation master opposite, he still had no idea of refutation.
Seeing that Situ Nan was not proud of some of his talents, Xue Ming's face softened a little, and he said, "Don't think that your talent is good, you can use it to squander." I saw a lot of people when I was a teacher, and their talents were good, but in the end, they gradually couldn't compare to their peers, even if they couldn't look down on their peers before, do you know why?"
"Why?" he asked, though he had a guess in his mind.
"Because they lost to themselves, lost to their pride! If they can keep the wind and water, then this pride does not matter, but as long as there is a defeat, this pride will become a butcher's knife swung at themselves, not fatal, but can ruin their fate, I hope you will not be ruined by your own pride in the future." ”
Xue Ming said, with some emotion and loneliness in his tone.
Situ Nan nodded, "Master Xue, I remember." ”
"Well, that's wrong, let's talk about the formation. I've already told you before, the origin of this formation and the ......"
In the following time, Xue Ming has been telling Situ Nan about some introductory knowledge of formation mages, some of which Situ Nan already knows, and even some of the knowledge can be said to be things that everyone on the mainland knows, but there are many things that Situ Nan does not know.
When Xue Ming finally connected what he had told before, Situ Nan found that whether it was those things that he knew before, or those things that everyone on the continent knew, they were indispensable for the way of formation.
It was only when Xue Ming connected these in his way that Situ Nan discovered that the way of this formation was so mysterious.
Of course, during this period of time, Xue Ming has not been talking about it, there are some things, he will give Situ Nan time to ask himself, or in turn ask Situ Nan some questions, some questions that are easy to understand, but once they are linked to the formation, they seem so mysterious.
Sometimes, Xue Ming would show Situ Nan a few formations on a whim, and some of the formations were full of aggression, causing many surrounding trees to suffer.
It was also at this time that Situ Nan knew why Xue Ming wanted to take him out of the academy before lecturing, this kind of destructive power, if it was in the academy, even if it was a teacher in the academy, he should have to lose money, right?
......
"Okay, that's all for today's lesson," Xue Ming said, throwing a few formation flags to Situ Nan, "You can use this set of formation flags first, and usually practice the few formation techniques I taught you before, although they don't seem to be of much use, but if they are practiced well, it will be beneficial to arrange other formations in the future." ”
Hearing this, Situ Nan bowed slightly.
"It's useless?" Situ Nan didn't look like it, in fact, the technique Xue Ming said was not a technique at all, it was very simple, just wave it and see how many array flags he could throw in the position he wanted.
The foundation is naturally one side, Situ Nan can do it without practice, if it is two-sided, he can do it with great effort, but if it is three-sided, it is basically impossible.
But when Xue Ming demonstrated before, he waved his hand casually, and twenty-seven flags were like fingers.
......
