Section 136 Sword Formation

Making weapons is not as difficult as you might think. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the guns of the civilized world are like this, and the same is true of the Xuan soldiers.

Of course, gunpowder guns and high-precision sniper rifles are two different concepts. With reference and limited mechanics, you can make a crude product by hand, but you can't make a sniper rifle anyway.

The difference between a first-grade Xuanbing and a second-grade Xuanbing lies in this. The reason why the latter was included in the scope of strictly supervised magic weapons by Taiyi Palace was because the second-grade Xuanbing was extremely powerful. To some extent, it is equivalent to an assault rifle manufactured in a regular military factory, which is extremely exquisite in terms of caliber, performance, and appearance, and meets the standards.

Taking the common infantry long knife as an example, the basic materials consumed are ten catties of fine iron and six coins of dark iron. Any blacksmith in the world can mix and melt these two materials and forge them. If it is a monk from the Guiyuan Sect to operate it personally, this procedure is absolutely unavoidable. Just like the products in the tofu workshop include tofu skin, tofu brain, dried tofu, etc., but no matter what kind of tofu products, they are inseparable from the basic links of soaking soybeans, steaming, and grinding.

"These 2,000 craftsmen are all juniors. They have three months of training with a professional blacksmith and are able to take care of all the groundwork. In the link of sealing spiritual power into the Xuan Bing, they can't do it no matter what, which requires the help of your senior brothers. ”

Che Jun, Zhang Yan and others gathered around, staring at every word on "The Law of Assembly Line Production" with hungry and greedy eyes, almost wanting to swallow the whole book. In his ears, Yang Tianhong's bright voice came.

"According to this method, 10,000 pieces of Xuanbing were produced very quickly. With these people as the foundation, an incomparably large forging system can be formed soon. At that time, even if 100,000 or a million Xuan soldiers are needed, it will definitely not be a problem. ”

As he spoke, Yang Tianhong walked to Zhang Yan's side. Gently patted Zhang Yan's Qiankun bag tied to his waist, and said meaningfully: "Senior Brother Zhang, I have a question. ”

Zhang Yan turned around, looking a little dazed: "What?"

Yang Tianhong pointed to his Qiankun bag: "Senior Brother Zhang's Xuan soldiers are battle axes. How many axes do you have in this bag?"

Zhang Yan was very puzzled by this question and thought about it. Say, "Only one handful." ”

Yang Tianhong turned his gaze to Che Jun again: "Senior Brother Che, what is your magic weapon, how many?"

Although some of the questions involve personal privacy, everyone is the same door, and Che Jun is also calm: "I like to use swords, when the foundation was successfully built, the master gave me a spiritual bamboo sword, I like it very much, and it is also very cooperative with my exercises, and I have been using it until now." ”

The same question continued to be asked to Zhang Fucheng. He replied, "My companion is a rock shield, strong and heavy as a mountain. As for the quantity...... Hehe, of course, there is only one. ”

Next to him, the monk Zu Kuan, who was also a disciple of the Houtu Temple, hurriedly said, "I am different from Senior Brother Zhang, I like to use a hammer. One can be used to attack, and when needed, it can also be used as a defensive weapon, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Yang Tianhong was still smiling: "Dare to ask you, senior brothers, why do you only have one Xuan Soldier with you? Do you think that there are too many magic weapons that are not easy to control, or is it beyond the tolerance range of your spiritual power?"

"How is this possible?"

Zhang Yan, the first disciple of the Agni Fire Palace, was impatient. Immediately shouted: "My Tiangang axe is a four-grade Xuanbing, if it is not refined, it is not easy. The materials are precious and hard to find, and I have already refined a second magic weapon of the same style. It's easy to control the axe with one hand, but it's not difficult to control it with psionic energy. If you can have an extra spare, you may be able to save your life in case of danger. ”

Che Jun nodded again and again when he heard this: "The same is true of my Spirit Bamboo Sword." If it's a little more, it's a handful. With a handful of psionic control, you have a better chance of winning the enemy. ”

Yang Tianhong wasted no time in interjecting: "Yes! If Senior Brother Zhang Yan has as many as a dozen Tiangang axes, when he encounters an opponent, he doesn't need to do anything at all, just face to face." It was an overwhelming steel axe that flew past. The other party suddenly encountered this kind of change, and he was caught off guard, so he just had to dodge, and Senior Brother Zhang could take the opportunity to win. ”

After a pause, Yang Tianhong continued: "The same is true for Senior Brother Che. If you have more flying swords on your body, five, ten, twenty...... When all of them are released, it is an incomparably powerful flying sword array. That kind of formation, just looking at it makes people feel intimidating. Maybe you don't need to do anything at all, and the other party will turn around and run away. ”

This kind of thing is not Yang Tianhong's nonsense.

The battle between monks, in addition to the strength of personal cultivation, is also a competition of weapons and equipment to a large extent. Many monks like flying swords because they are easy to control, and when they are released, they can lock on to the target and attack.

This weapon resembles a missile. The difference is that missiles are disposable attack weapons. It is consumed immediately after use and cannot be recycled for further use. Flying swords are different.

If there is a sword, there will naturally be a shield, and there are various ways to deal with it. The battle between the monks lasted for more than 100,000 years, and various spells were endless. In order to deal with the flying sword, the monk has practiced a special method of restraint. When they come up, they form a defense around their bodies, and the flying sword is difficult to penetrate, and a forced attack will damage themselves. If the sword-wielding monk forcibly attacked, it would be like a kitchen knife cutting cast iron, either the blade would be shattered on the spot, or the flying sword would simply be broken in two.

Therefore, as long as the monk is powerful, he will often have an extra flying sword by his side in case of emergency.

However, the magic weapon Xuanbing is very valuable, and the monks are also poor ghosts and rich people. If it is the former, the Qiankun bag is empty, what to use to buy weapons and equipment?

This situation is also common within the Guiyuan Sect. Although the Guiyuan Sect is a great forging sect, refining magic weapons is not just about forging materials into shape. Spiritual infusion is a very complex and tedious process that requires a lot of energy. Especially for the creation of high-grade Xuan soldiers, because there is too much spiritual power infusion, it is more likely to cause the forger's cultivation to decline. At this time, a large number of pills are needed to fill it. Generally speaking, when a forging master is making a high-level Xuan soldier, he must have enough pills by his side. Once you find that your spiritual energy infusion is out of control, you immediately swallow the pill to fill the gap in your spiritual energy.

With the ability of Xiong Jie, the hall master of the Flame Palace, refining the four-grade Xuan Soldier is certainly not a difficult task. However, there were a large number of disciples in the Flame Palace, and it was impossible for Xiong Jie to forge a portable magic weapon for everyone one by one. Although Zhang Yan also has the ability to forge Xuan Bing. But his cultivation strength is still insufficient, and at most he is building a three-grade magic weapon.

The reason why high-level Xuan soldiers are precious, in addition to their own good quality, is also because high-level Xuan soldiers are easy to control. Take Zhang Yan's Tiangang axe as an example, which is engraved with a special formation to reduce weight, and bless the technique of attack power. Because it is an axe-like attack weapon. It is heavy and can also be used as a defensive weapon.

Zhang Yan cherished this Tiangang axe very much, and he refined several three-grade battle axes, all of which were made and then destroyed again. The reason is very simple: the low-level Xuan Soldier is no longer able to adapt to his cultivation combat power, if the grade is lower than the fourth level, this kind of Xuan Soldier Zhang Yan will not be able to look down on him, and he will not have extra spiritual energy to manipulate.

Yang Tianhong said that a large number of Xuan soldiers are formed into axe formations and sword formations, and their foundation must still be based on the Xuan soldiers of the corresponding level of the user's strength. Zhang Yan's cultivation corresponds to the four-rank Xuanbing. If he added a third-grade battle axe, he would have to spend a lot of psionic energy to control it, making it difficult for him to exert his true strength.

Moreover, both are four-rank Xuan soldiers, and the flying sword is definitely not suitable for Zhang Yan. Everyone has their own habits, and Zhang Yan, who likes to chop heavy weapons, will never use the flexible flying sword to the extreme. This is why many monks have several magic weapons on their bodies, but they can really use them. But there are one or two reasons for this.

In the cultivation world, there has always been a saying that "if you are high, you will not be low". This refers to the monk's use of the Dharma. Usually only high-grade Xuan soldiers will be selected. The reason is very simple: the higher the level of the Xuan Bing, the more spiritual energy it contains, and the easier it is to control. The legendary Divine Weapon Immortal Treasure only needs the user's mind to move, and it can accurately attack or defend according to the requirements. Among the differences. It is equivalent to a high-precision missile that can fly automatically with a simple push of a button with your finger. If you use a low-level Xuan Bing...... Imagine a soldier picking up a special 30-kilogram grenade and throwing it with all the strength he could eat.

The Guiyuan Sect monks present soon fell into collective silence, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Yang Tianhong.

Cha Jun lowered his voice. Quite excitedly, he said, "Sword formation...... Senior Brother Yang, aren't you kidding?"

Yang Tianhong's smile was extremely calm: "Senior Brother Che's understanding may be a little misunderstood with reality. The sword formation I'm talking about is not the kind of incomparably subtle and ever-changing method of manipulation. ”

Cha Jun frowned: "No? What exactly are you referring to?"

The so-called sword array must be composed of more than three Xuan soldiers of the same quality and level. The lower limit is three, and there is no upper limit. The Ancient Monk has created many attack arrays that allow the user to maneuver with three flying swords that can attack from different directions, while creating a killing and dangerous environment that traps the target until it is killed.

Owning a sword array is, of course, more powerful than holding a single flying sword. Under normal circumstances, the combat power of a monk holding a sword formation is equivalent to an increase of three small levels. It is even possible to reach five small levels. This is the equivalent of a hundred kilograms in the boxing ring, and suddenly a seventy-kilogram fighter appeared. Although there is a big difference between the two sides, he is holding a laser sword in his hand, and the lack of strength is made up by weapons.

The sword array is extremely rare. The greater the number of flying swords that make up the sword array, the more powerful the sword array will be. These are two prerequisites that cannot be changed. Even if it was the Great Refining Sect Guiyuan Sect, only the sect leader Zhong Yuanyu and a few elders held this kind of magic weapon with incredible power.

It's not that the sword array is difficult to make, but the people who can use the sword array are really rare.

People who can do two things are often much smarter than the ones who have a tendon in their heads. Many sects use special methods to train their disciples. Yang Qiurong's Qingling Sect requires his disciples to draw a square with their left hand and a circle with their right hand when they walk every day, and think about other things in their minds...... This training method may sound perverted, but it can strengthen the trainee's thinking and reaction speed. Using the sword array, you must flexibly control the movement and direction of each of the flying swords in order to change the blockade sword net against the target. As a result, the user must consume a lot of psionic energy, and the battle time cannot be extended. But the benefits are also obvious: monks who can use sword formations are very powerful in combat and can often kill the enemy with one move.

If the sword formation magic weapon falls into the hands of other people who are stupid, even if the seal is broken, it will be difficult to use. It's like an F22 in front of you, and everyone knows it's the best fighter in the world, but you're not a pilot, you don't know how to fly it. At most, it is to drill into the cabin and pose a few poss and take a few photos. Maybe if you accidentally press the self-destruct program of the plane, you will blow yourself to pieces in vain.

Cha Jun is only a monk at the fifth level of the foundation, and his qualifications are not outstanding.

Yang Tianhong looked at Che Jun and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Che, have you ever thought about it?" The sword formation is not the form you are familiar with. Before that, I would like to ask Senior Brother Che to answer me a question: If there is a sword formation magic weapon in front of you, how many flying swords can you control at most, Senior Brother Che?"

Che Jun hesitated for a moment, and said reluctantly, "Three." If there is an elixir in your hand to replenish spiritual energy, you may be able to drive four handfuls. ”

Yang Tianhong continued to laugh and said, "There are only four flying swords, it's too few. If it is a sword array, there must be no less than 500 flying swords in order to live up to the name of "sword array". ”

As soon as this remark came out, it was not only Cha Jun. The other Guiyuan Sect monks around also laughed.

"Senior Brother Yang, what are you kidding, five hundred flying swords...... It's absolutely impossible. ”

"If you want to control five hundred flying swords at the same time, I'm afraid only Da Luo Jin Immortal can do it. ”

"It's ridiculous. What is the concept of five hundred flying swords? Even the sword formation of the Sect Master is only twelve flying swords at best. If you have more, it will be difficult to use. ”

Yang Tianhong didn't care about these sarcastic words. He said earnestly: "Why do you have to regard the flying sword as a flexible and delicate Xuan soldier? Why can't you make the use and control of the sword array simpler? Why do you have to divide your mind and carefully control each of the five hundred flying swords? Why can't you treat all the flying swords as a whole? As many as five hundred. Spread out, enough to cover a radius of several hundred meters. It can even be as wide as a kilometer. ”

As he spoke, Yang Tianhong snapped his fingers, and Yang Yuan and Yang Yi, who had been following the nearby guards, ran quickly, carrying an ash bucket in their hands, and quickly scattered a circle with a diameter of about 100 meters with white ash on the ground.

Yang Tianhong spread out his hands and stood in the center of the circle. Looking around, his voice was full of infinite demagogy: "All senior brothers have seen it, this circle under my feet is very large. Of course, for cultivators, this range is not worth mentioning. Right now. I need the help of a volunteer. Excuse me, who wants to come?"

The monks of the Guiyuan Sect looked at each other, and Che Jun quickly walked over and said seriously, "I'll come!"

Regarding the kind of large-scale sword formation that Yang Tianhong said, Che Jun vaguely had a vague concept, but it was not very clear. At the same time, out of curiosity, I am very active in this kind of thing.

Yang Tianhong let Che Jun stand in the center of the circle and asked, "If Senior Brother Che and I are rivals at this moment, and suddenly release as many as five hundred flying swords, all of which cover this place, how sure are you that Senior Brother Che will escape from it?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yan, who was standing nearby, suddenly moved his face, and involuntarily "hissed" in his mouth.

Cha Jun didn't speak, his face was full of horror and excitement.

The rest of the Guiyuan Sect monks also fell silent, their eyes fixed on the circle drawn with white ash on the ground, obviously thinking about something in their hearts.

After nearly half a minute, Che Juncai took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, shook his head, and said in a low voice: "I can't escape at all if I am caught off guard." That's five hundred flying swords after all, it's really ...... It's just too much. ”

Yang Tianhong took out an ordinary steel sword from the Qiankun bag, stuck it on the ground hard, and looked at everyone with blazing eyes: "We don't need to control every flying sword. When you compete with your life, even a random stone around you can pick it up and smash people. Not to mention sharp weapons. As long as there are enough of them and the enveloping area is large enough, it is impossible for the other party to dodge at all. We don't need to pursue killing with a single flying sword, as long as we can cover it with a sword array, even if the opponent's strength exceeds our own by several ranks, he will definitely die. ”

Cha Jun's eyes lit up, and he nodded excitedly.

This sword formation is very convenient to use. Just look at all the flying swords as a whole and release them all towards the target, without thinking about the hit rate and accuracy at all. Huge volume, means huge coverage. Even if the falling flying sword doesn't hit the opponent's vital point, at least it can hurt him. As long as there is bleeding, the speed will become slow. When the time comes, even if it is dragged, it can drag the opponent to death.

What's more, this sword formation is not a one-time consumable. Even if you don't hit the first time, you can fire again the second time. One shot is a piece, which is equivalent to carrying a long-range support artillery group with you.

Ten Guiyuan Sect monks approached one after another and gathered around Yang Tianhong.

Not everyone has been favored by Yang Tianhong. Although the masters of each hall have repeatedly explained, there will be a few people who disagree. After all, he is a junior disciple of the Guiyuan Sect, and he is also a mere qi refiner. In terms of realm alone, it is enough to make people look down on it. However, he creatively proposed the concept of a large sword formation, and this intelligence alone also instantly improved Yang Tianhong's position in the minds of his fellow senior brothers.

"No wonder Senior Brother Yang wants us to make a large number of first-grade Xuanbing. From this point of view, forging a sword formation magic weapon does require a first-grade Xuan soldier is enough. As long as the number is sufficient, there is no difference between high-level and low-grade Xuan soldiers. (To be continued.) )
