Chapter 25: The Array

Chihuang was kept in prison from evening to evening.

After Hatsuyuki returned to the Snow Lotus Temple, she learned what had happened and immediately rushed to the Law Enforcement Palace.

Chihuang was ashamed of Chu Xue and lowered his head: "I'm sorry." ”

"I'm not here to hear you apologize, I want to hear the truth. Who are you, are you really as ill-intentioned as they say! Chu Xue's eyes were extremely cold at the moment.

She didn't want the person she was saving to be a person with bad intentions, and because she was kind, she would be heartbroken because of it.

Up to now, Chihuang has nothing to hide, he started from the Ghost Yan Clan's mine, and continued to talk about the Netherworld Poison Fire, during which he told Chu Xue the truth. Except for the matter of the Ten Thousand Flame Spirit Body, there is nothing to hide.

"As for last night's incident, it was because I felt a mysterious energy from the top of the mountain, and under the temptation of this energy, the ghost sent the god up the mountain." Chihuang has explained everything he should have explained, and as for Chu Xue's belief or not, he has no complaints.

Hearing about Chihuang's tragic experience, Chu Xue felt sympathy again, and she looked at Chihuang, whose eyes were so sincere and determined.

She chose to believe in Chihuang, not only that, but also her own considerations.

First of all, when she saw Chihuang for the first time, the latter had already stepped into the ghost gate with half a foot. Just ask, if it's just to get close to yourself, why do you have to pay such a big price, or even bear the consequences of death!

Moreover, the Snow Clan is located in the land of the west, if you want to say that some people covet it, most of them are also the people of the land of the west, in the southeast border, which is separated by tens of thousands of miles or even more, who will stretch out such a long hand, or should it be said, who can stretch out such a long hand?

When Chihuang talked about the mystical energy of the mountain top, he really surprised Chu Xue.

After all, even she can't perceive a single inch of that energy, and in this Heavenly Pavilion, the people who can perceive it are afraid that there are no more than five fingers, it is hard to imagine how strong Chihuang's soul body is?!

……

That night, Chihuang walked out of the Law Enforcement Hall safe and sound.

For the first snow, this is not a difficult task.

The first thing he did when he returned to Xueheyuan was to test the strength of Chihuang's soul body.

Chu Xue has been refining a low-grade Fan Dan for the past two days: Zhuji Dan, but it always ends in failure. The reason for this is also very simple, the soul body is not strong enough to accurately capture the changes in the alchemy furnace, resulting in improper fire control and ultimately failure.

This time, she let Chihuang sense and tell her about the changes in the furnace, and she herself was responsible for controlling the fire, refining, and condensing the pill.

It didn't take long for a bright-colored Tsukidan to be baked with excellent color.

As a result, she was also amazed at the strength of Chihuang's soul body, far better than herself.

"Are you going to leave in a month?" Hatsuyuki asked.

"Hmm." Chihuang nodded, "After all, the southern land is where I should go. ”

Chu Xue pondered for a while and said, "Why don't you go to the formation hall to study for a while, and then decide to stay?" ”

As we all know, the Martial Hall has strict requirements for cultivation strength, the Array Hall has strict requirements for the strength of the soul body, and the Dan Hall has very strict requirements for both of these requirements.

In Chihuang's situation, going to the Array Hall to study is undoubtedly the best choice.

Chu Xue had already said so, and Chihuang gladly accepted the arrangement.

……

The physical body can be cultivated, and the soul body is naturally no exception.

The soul has nine orifices, and every time a soul aperture is opened, the strength of the soul body will undergo a qualitative change. Legend has it that the Nine Souls can encompass the Galaxy Divine Domain, distinguish the ashes and dust, exhaustively investigate the secrets of the Nine Heavens, and spy on the mysteries of eternity. A single thought can make the starry sky come to naught, and the demons and gods can be turned into dry bones!

Even if it is good, there are thousands of difficulties.

Cultivating the soul body is thousands of times more difficult than cultivating the physical body, and many people have become spiritual cultivators, and the strength of the soul body is still stuck at the triple soul. It's not that they don't want to work hard, it's really powerless.

The Fourth Soul Technique and the Seventh Soul Technique are two big hurdles that most cultivators cannot cross.

Chuxue is still in a heavy soul, and there are faint signs of breakthroughs, but he has never been able to wait for an opportunity.

Most of the cultivators in the Heavenly Pavilion were one-heavy souls, and even a small number of closed souls had poor soul body perception ability, and they could only detect some clumsy attacks.

Like Chihuang, who can perceive things within ten zhang of his body clearly, I'm afraid that if you look at the entire Heavenly Pavilion, you won't be able to find many people.

The next day, at the recommendation of Chu Xue, Chihuang temporarily studied with a formation master named Feng Xiuyuan.

This person's formation attainments were at the bottom of the ten masters of the Heavenly Pavilion Array Hall, and because of this, there were still spare seats in his academy.

Now is not the enrollment season, and the array hall usually does not recruit disciples, but they can't afford to give His Highness Chu Xue face, so they accepted Chihuang and stuffed it to Feng Xiuyuan.

In this way, Chihuang became a disciple of the tenth hall.

……

On the first day he entered the hall, Chihuang was met with a lot of strange eyes, and many people deliberately isolated him, after all, it was a relationship, and other people who entered the hall with real talent and real learning were naturally unconvinced.

The rule of the tenth hall has always been three small tests and one big test, and two months is a practice cycle.

The quiz means that the instructor teaches a simple circle and demonstrates it once, and the disciples must complete the arrangement of the circle within 10 days and achieve the desired effect.

The big test is the same, but the circle is more complicated, and the research time is as long as a month.

Failure to complete the task will result in a penalty.

The one who taught Chihuang was Yang Chen, a closed disciple of Feng Xiuyuan, and the magic circle he demonstrated was a palm array.

When a cultivator fights with others, he can rely on his own derived spiritual power, or he can borrow the spiritual energy from the outside world, and this palm formation is a way to condense the spiritual energy of the outside world.

They were required to leave a concave mark on the boulder in the courtyard.

After the teaching, Yang Chen explained the basic formation knowledge to Chihuang according to the master's meaning.

The essence of the formation technique is to stimulate or borrow the power of the law, and the magic is endless.

First of all, there are nine levels of magic circles, corresponding to the power of the nine souls, of which the first to third order magic circles are called floating arrays, the fourth to sixth order magic circles are called odd arrays, the seventh to eighth order magic circles are called Xuan arrays, and the ninth order magic circles are called heavenly arrays.

The first step in learning the formation technique is to depict runes, which need to use soul power or use rune pens containing soul power to attract the mysterious energy in the void and outline specific symbols, which are called runes.

Those who have not mastered the formation skills are learning second-order runes.

At this step, it only took Chi Huang less than a quarter of an hour to outline the runes that he needed to master in his palm.

Then there is the formation, which is far more complicated than sketching the runes.

Not only do you need to outline the runes, but you also have to outline the lines to connect each rune, one of the important steps is the processing of the intersection of the lines, and the aura in the lines can circulate smoothly, and the magic circle will become.

This step requires a lot of work.

The palm array that Chihuang learned can't be named, but Feng Xiuyuan used it to test whether the disciples' basic formation knowledge was firm and could be put into practice, and it was not outstanding in the first-order magic array.

This circle needs to outline a total of eight runes, and the intersections of the lines involved are all the intersection points of the two lines.

The difficulty of this circle is still relatively simple.

According to the basic knowledge taught by Yang Chen, Chihuang sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, controlling his soul power to outline runes and lines in the void.

I saw that a rune glowing with spiritual light in his palm was slowly outlined, and several stripes immediately spread out from one side, like a small snake slowly extending along the arc, and after extending to a certain length, it then outlined the next rune......

At a certain moment, beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from Chihuang's forehead, and the outline of the runes suddenly stopped, and then the runes and lines that had been outlined were also shattered.

"Humph!"

Chihuang failed to set up the formation for the first time, but he was not discouraged, just snorted lightly, and then began the second attempt.

After the rune and the pattern are successfully connected, you need to introduce the aura into the array, either by injecting the aura yourself or by introducing the external aura, this step mainly depends on whether the intersection is perfect when the rune pattern is hooked in the first step.

Chihuang also made several mistakes when completing this step.

The aura enters the array, runs in it, and the magic circle is formed.

After more than ten repeated attempts, Chihuang finally succeeded in arranging the first magic circle in his career, although the technique is still a little rough, the use of soul power is still not a little hot, and the skills are not mature enough, but he can barely be called a formation magician!

As his soul moved, the array in his palm activated, and the aura in the surrounding space merged into the array.

"Go!" With a wave of Chihuang's sleeve robe, the spiritual power in the formation turned into a sword, and it crashed into the boulder in the courtyard with a bang!

The power of this burst was impressive, and a gap exploded on the surface of the boulder in an instant.
