Mohism

Mo Liang sat quietly in the backyard, his eyes occasionally flashing with divine light, and he could see that his heart was not at peace now.

He accidentally got information from the old man of the administrative officer, and found that the demon energy he coveted was useless to others, which made him excited. The ability to stab souls and devour energy cannot be leaked. The contradiction between him made it difficult for him to choose.

Mo Liang, who has been promoted to the third grade of ink, has come to the first bottleneck of the ink period. Whether it is ink, qi sea, soul body, or even eye-catching, soul-grabbing, and god-gathering, there are three hurdles for a strong person at any stage, which are three, six, nine. The three-product bottleneck is the threshold of the early and middle stages of the stage, the six-product bottleneck is the threshold of the middle and late stages, and the nine-product bottleneck is the bottleneck of the promotion stage.

The bottleneck is not easy to break through, and the difficulty increases geometrically compared to the improvement of other levels. And once it breaks through, it will immediately enter a new realm of strength.

The first product of the ink carries a hundred catties of strength, the second product is two hundred catties, and the three hundred is five hundred catties. And once it is promoted to the fourth grade of ink, it will be promoted to the thousand-pound level, the fourth-grade of ink, and the fifth-grade of ink, which is three thousand catties...... It can be seen that there are two worlds above and below the bottleneck.

If Mo Liang can be promoted to the fourth rank of the ink, he will have the qualification to join the guard in Beicun, and the brothers Ma Xiangfei and Ma Xiangdong are not convinced, I am afraid they can only bow their heads.

It's just that at the same time, it is also very difficult to cultivate.

Even if Mo Liang's devouring ability was against the sky, he needed at least sixteen Demon Yuan to enter the ink, which made him dare not be delusional.

Sixteen one-grade demon yuan into ink, 1,600 contribution points, Mo Liang can receive five contribution points every day as a quasi-guard, and all of them can be exchanged for sixteen demon yuan, which takes more than 300 days. Even if there is a demon killing business, you can get additional contribution points, and it will take two hundred days to advance to the fourth rank of the ink.

But now, as long as he finds a way to devour the energy of the first-grade demon yuan that is insignificant to the village, he may be able to enter the fourth-grade in a few days or ten days.

The gap is very different.

"How can we devour those energies without knowing it?" Mo Liang muttered to himself, his eyes out of his mind, his thoughts chaotic.

"The old man of the administrative officer is wilting all day long, but he is actually very shrewd, and it is difficult to start from him......"

"Most of the demon elements that enter the ink are crushed to make the introduction of the array stone, so can I go to the array stone shop?"

There was a brief silence, and Mo Liang seemed to be considering the possibility.

"Well, the Stone Shop is a good place. I can become a junior apprentice who specializes in crushing demon elements, first devouring the demon element energy, and then crushing it directly, and no one will find out. ”

"Moreover, as far as I know, the Array Stone Shop needs a lot of demon elements. ”

Mo Liang's eyes lit up, and he sat up, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

......

In the early morning of another day, Mo Liang got up early, but he did not arrive at the martial arts arena, but neatly tidied up and went to the stone shop in Xiangbei Village.

The array stone shop is a place that is only frequented by Wen Xiu, and Mo Liang has never been there before. But he knew that the array stone was of great use to Wen Xiu.

There are grades of array stones, and the array stone shop in Beicun only has a first-grade array stone, which is already very good.

The first-grade gravity array stone can create a small area of double gravity, whether it is for cultivation or against the enemy, it has a great auxiliary effect; the first-grade spirit gathering array stone can gather vitality and increase the absorption speed of vitality; the first-grade miasma array stone can put the enemy in the miasma poisonous mist......

This is only the more common one that Mo Liang has heard of, and there are many array stones, which have incomparably wonderful uses. However, it must also be expensive. For Mo Liang, it was a bit extravagant.

The North Village is not big, the Array Stone Shop is not far from the guard camp, and Mo Liang has already arrived in a while.

The boss is a man in the prime of life about forty years old, with a somewhat thin body, exuding a strong craftsman's atmosphere, bright eyes, and hard calluses on his hands. He was holding a carving knife and a stone slab, and he had already made a formation stone early in the morning.

Mo Liang came in, and he couldn't be distracted. Mo Liang had no choice but to wait quietly. After a few moments, the craftsman stroked the stone slab from his hand, put it aside, and slowly stood up.

"First time?" he asked.

Mo Liang nodded.

"No wonder. I usually make the array stone early in the morning, when I am more energetic, and everyone in the guard knows it. What array stone do you want?" the craftsman's voice was loud, and he did not hear his dissatisfaction, nor did he mean to greet him.

Mo conscience said, this craftsman has a straightforward personality, so it's better not to go around the bend.

"I want to learn the formation path from you. ”

"Learning the Formation Dao?" The craftsman glanced at Mo Liang in surprise and said, "The Formation Dao is also divided into the Formation Posture and the Formation Stone Dao, which one do you want to learn?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Mo Liang's eyes, and he didn't know that the formation path still had a connotation. However, he came for the demon yuan, so naturally he would not hesitate. "I'm going to learn the way of the Formation. ”

The craftsman sighed and nodded leisurely. "The way of the array stone, I have a little introduction, I can teach you. However, the formation, the Dan, and the way of the soldier all require talent. If you want to learn the way of the array stone, you need to have three lessons: Tianyan, Shengong, and Ingenuity, Tianyan and Shengong may be obtained through hard practice, but ingenuity is not easy. In this way, I will test your ingenuity, and if you can pass, it is not too late to talk about learning. ”

"How?"

"The production of array stones, pay attention to strategizing, and complete it in one go. But this square inch of land is hidden in Kunyu, and it takes a long time of concentration to complete. Ingenuity is the consistent concentration of the formation master. Do you see the sand table on the side?"

As he spoke, the stonemason pointed to the side. Mo Liang nodded, looking at him suspiciously.

"In the sand table, there are two kinds of white sand and black sand, there is more white sand and less black sand, and the black and white fine sand are not as good as the hair eleven. After a while, you need to pick 300 grains of black sand from it, and the time limit is half an hour. The sand table is half a zhang long and three feet wide, and there is very little black sand in it, like microscopic insects in the clouds, evenly scattered. If it weren't for half an hour's concentration, I am afraid it would be difficult to complete. If you are distracted for a moment, you must also rearrange it, and if there are many omissions, it will not be enough for three hundred. ”

"This side is the method of many array masters to practice their eyes, hands, and hearts, and those who are advanced can see through the overall situation at a glance, and they can separate black and white with one breath. Back then, I apprenticed and picked out 300 grains of black sand in a quarter and a half ......."

The stonemasons talked eloquently, but Mo Liang gradually showed a strange look on his face.

When the craftsman saw it, he thought he was shocked, and he couldn't help but faintly show a little pride, "Of course, most people can complete it within the specified time, which is not easy, and the so-called 'ingenuity' has it." If you fail this time, I can give you another three more chances, and you can go back and practice your spirit, and one day you will be able to succeed and achieve ingenuity. ”

looked at Mo Liang again, but shook his head lightly, and said, "No need, once is enough!"

Just now, under his gaze, the black sand mixed in the white sand had appeared in his eyes like fireflies. At first glance, there are hundreds of grains, and it is not difficult to choose three hundred from them.

He vaguely guessed in his heart that this might be his natural perception.

The craftsman was obviously stunned and said with a smile: "Okay, young people should have this self-confidence." However, you should not take it lightly, and if it fails, I will not make an exception. ”

"If it succeeds, I'll be an apprentice here. As soon as I do the chores, I'll come!" Mo Liang said heavily. As soon as he turned around, he came to the side of the sand table.

The craftsman looked at it with a faint smile.

Mo Liang's eyes swept and he directly began to reach out and grab.

It is not easy to fish out the black sand from this white sand, but fortunately, Mo Liang is keeping an eye on it. One, two... 10 capsules......

Mo Liang picked quickly, and the craftsman's face gradually changed. Such a speed has surpassed his proud record. "Maybe it's because the young man is full of energy and anticlimactic!" he comforted himself.

Thirty grains... Fifty grains... 100 capsules......

The craftsman's face became solemn. It can be seen that Mo Liang did not do his best, and many times, the speed of his hands could not keep up with the speed of his eyes. This state seems to be very easy for him, and there is no need to deliberately maintain concentration at all.

One hundred and fifty capsules... 200 capsules......

The craftsman's face flushed slightly. Mo Liang's talent has obviously surpassed him. is not only the ingenuity of concentration, but also the talent of Tianyan and Shengong, which makes him easy to play.

Three hundred grains!

In an instant, three hundred grains of black sand were already on the table. Mo Liang clapped his hands and said with a relaxed look: "It's done." ”

The craftsman was a little stunned. Although the kung fu of Tianyan and Shengong can be achieved through hard practice, but for ordinary formation masters, if they are formation masters, which one is not extremely talented? He thought that it was good for Mo Liang to be able to maintain his ingenuity, but he didn't think that he was a jade-like existence.

As a mediocre formation master, even after twenty years of hard training, his speed was not much faster than Mo Liang.

Flustered back to his senses, the craftsman praised again and again: "Good, good, good! I remember your name is Mo Liang, right? You have a good talent for the formation path, since you like the formation path, then come over tomorrow." I only hope that you can be attentive and upright, and do not insult the honor of the Mahatma. ”

Mo Liang's face immediately straightened, and he nodded seriously.
