Chapter 410: Non-Formation, Non-Weapon
The next day, Xiao Cong woke up on time - it seemed that no matter how late he slept the night before, he would never miss the thunderous morning class the next morning, and when he came back, he saw that Ouyang Xun was already busy there, and the classics he read were still a stack left over from last night, thinking that it should have just begun.
Xiao Cong continued to move books, Ouyang Xun continued to read books and make drawings, today's progress seems to be a little slower, Xiao Cong also has other things to do in addition to moving books, Ouyang Xun gave him a beautifully bound white book, let him make some notes from time to time on the side, Xiao Cong noticed that the material of this white book and pen and ink are good, it can be seen that Ouyang Xun attaches great importance to this information.
The two of them were busy from morning to noon, in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Xiao Cong went to the kitchen to steal things to eat after noon, after lunch, he was busy until midnight in one breath, or like last night, Xiao Cong brought back the food from the kitchen, Ouyang Xun drank a small jar of Luoxian Mansion Craft Brew, and then fell asleep.
Day 3, Day 4, Day 5......
It wasn't until the middle of the sixth day that the two of them added a "class" for a while, and they finished sorting out these things on the seventh day, and for six days, Ouyang Xun stayed in the two-foot-square hidden shadow hiding array, studying hard, only occasionally moving his buttocks, in his own words,
"I was exhausted, I felt like my body was being hollowed out. β
After eating the first breakfast in seven days in the Ancient Knowledge Room of the Mansion Lord's Pavilion, and putting away all the materials that had been sorted out, Xiao Cong took Ouyang Xun and used Bu Tiangua to a relatively safe place on the edge of the Turtle Mansion, and then set up a high-level teleportation array, and hurried back to the Sun Desert to meet Xingliuyun and his party.
It's the beginning of the hour.
There was a big sun hanging in the sky, shining brightly, the sand and gravel on the ground were golden, and it felt a little hot when I looked at it, Xiao Cong and Ouyang Xun came to the area where the sheepskin tent was supported before, and when they looked around, they saw that there was nothing in the sky over the Shaohai Sea, which caused Ouyang Xun to doubt himself,
"Are we in the wrong place?"
Xiao Cong thought for a moment, and couldn't help laughing,
"Don't worry, that's right, they're here?"
"Where is it?" asked Ouyang Xun.
Xiao Cong pointed his finger down,
"Down there. β
Ouyang Xun looked at Xiao Cong's fingers in a daze, and after a while, his big mouth cracked slightly, looking a little helpless and laughing.
"It must have been a bad idea from the Nebula Nebula. β
Xiao Congfu smiled,
"We came late that day, and left early the next day, the time was too coincidental, and I didn't take into account the fact that the weather was too hot at noon, I knew that this would have been the case for me to set up a Guanghan Palace in the tent, which was what I did when I came here with Hongxiang before, but thanks to the star boss, otherwise, if you stick here, Sister Younu and Hongxiang will suffer!"
Ouyang Xun pursed his lips and teased:
"The fine sons of the Xing family, all of them are really rats, and their stronghold doesn't have a serious ground facility, but then again, this ability to make holes is really strong enough, and they can dig out holes in the desert, and they are really convinced. β
"What now, can you accurately sense their position?"
Xiao Cong put his arms on the back of his head, twisted his neck, and said with a smile:
"Yes, yes, but I can't find where the entrance to the ground movement is, I'm afraid that I will collapse the hole in the ground by rushing in, let's wait here, maybe they will come out on their own." β
Ouyang Xun was helpless, lying on the ground, squinting his eyes like a dead dog, Xiao Cong looked at the sky, took out a pair of materials, and set up a "Guanghan Palace" on the ground.
After lying down for about half an hour, Ouyang Xun suddenly sat up, turned his head and said to Xiao Cong:
"Idle is idle, you take out the things we have sorted out, and let's refine it. β
"Refinement?"
Xiao Cong waved his right hand slightly, and a stack of drawings almost five inches high and a book half a palm thick appeared on the sand.
Ouyang Xun looked up at the sky,
"You say, will the wind get up?"
Xiao Cong didn't know why, so he could only smile back,
"This ...... I don't know. β
Ouyang Xun looked at the sky and slowly twisted his neck,
"Look at it like this, it shouldn't be anytime soon, well, exactly. β
With that, he picked up the stack of drawings and spread them out on the sand like a jigsaw puzzle.
To say that Ouyang Xun is indeed a talent, the stack of drawings he drew can be put together into a complete map on the ground, mountains, rivers, plains, basins, just like he really went there in person, and there are dense annotations written in the blank space, such as what incredible things have happened in this place or what forces exist, what needs to be paid attention to, etc., it is simply exhaustive.
The drawings were arranged into a large map three zhang square, which looked very impressive from a close distance, of course, it was inconspicuous from the entire near sun desert, Ouyang Xun stood at the edge of the map, scratching his ears and cheeks and looking helpless, and muttered to himself:
"No matter how you look at it, I don't think it's a little inconvenient, even if it's on a piece of paper, it's still too strenuous......
Xiao Cong was also standing next to this map at this time, and echoed casually,
"If I could have given me more time, I would have kept it all in my head. β
Ouyang Xun seemed to have heard a great joke,
"Don't joke buddy, it's useless only for you to write it down, it's best for a few of us, I'm afraid that something will happen on the road and someone will get lost, with this map in hand, how much will increase the possibility of survival. β
"What's there to worry about, I'll send you a few more stone carvings. Xiao Cong raised the bar unconvinced.
Ouyang Xun shook his head with a smile, and the index finger of his right hand pointed to a certain area on the map.
"See, that piece is the only place we must pass through to Cambodia Mountain, and it is also a well-known dangerous place in the Xuanzhen Realm, how many stone carvings do you have enough for us to squander over there, besides, even if the teleportation array is convenient, it can only go back and not forward, if you can't go over, you can't go through, you can't go through once, and you may not be able to go back and forth a few times, so ah, forget about your crooked ideas, and it's the most correct choice to face it positively. β
After a pause, he added:
"Once we go on this trip, Cambodia Mountain is not our ultimate goal, this is a great opportunity for us to improve our cultivation, if we can really get separated, it would be good, everyone has a map, so that we can hone and hone, as long as we can't die. β
When Xiao Cong heard this, he couldn't help but sigh heavily, and only replied after a while:
"Leave this matter to me, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory result. β
Ouyang Xun was surprised when he heard this:
"What are you going to do?"
"When I have this map in my heart, I will draw a wisp of divine consciousness from my soul and pour it into the stone carving, and they will be able to know the contents of the map through my divine consciousness when they hold the stone carving. Xiao Cong replied, his tone light.
"I didn't expect the Xiao family's magic circle to have such a wonderful use, it's really surprising. β
"Don't get too happy, it's going to take a long time. β
"Why? Don't you have ready-made stone carvings?"
Xiao Cong was speechless for a while, leaned less, and replied:
"I don't have any ready-made stone carvings on my body that can be used like this, and if you want to make this thing, you have to make the stone carvings yourself. β
The surprise on Ouyang Xun's face turned into surprise at this time,
"The Xiao family's stone carving array technique...... You've got it? You're ...... That's amazing......"
Xiao Cong grinned, not smiling,
"The Xiao family's stone carving array technique was mastered by me so easily, have you been a dry cook for so many generations of the Xiao family? If I can master the stone carving secret technique so easily, it is estimated that Xiao Fengzhe's ancestor will be able to crawl out of the coffin happily!"
"Then you ......"
"This kind of thing I told you is just a little bit related to the formation, it is not a formation, at most it is a low-level Horcrux, but it is just a little bit of the skin of the Xiao family's stone carving formation. β
Ouyang Xun nodded with a big face, looking like he still didn't seem to understand,
"Then this thing must cost a lot of good materials. β
"Nonsense, it's not just good material, ordinary people definitely can't get it!"
Ouyang Xun smiled and scratched his head,
"But I still don't quite understand, you can use a formation to make a Horcrux with a formation, what is the difference between that formation and a refining weapon. β
Xiao Cong thought about it and replied with a serious face:
"The things in the world follow nothing more than a Taoist word, so all the laws are wrong, and the different paths are the same, take this matter as an example, the principle followed by the refining and the formation is the same, but the way to achieve it is different, the array is put together, the refining tool is refined together, and I, just a patchwork, want to combine the formation and refining metaphysics to make a non-array and non-instrumental thing, by the way, in fact, my ancestor Xiao Fengzhe, who created the stone carving formation, is half a refiner, and Xiao Mingyuan, the other ancestor who created the method of planting the formation, is half an alchemistγ β
Ouyang Xun scratched his forehead lightly, thoughtfully,
"In fact, from a certain point of view, there is no difference between the magic circle and the mysterious weapon, but the form of the performance is different, and it is investigated up, but it is divided into the existence between saving people and killing people, if you refine a mysterious weapon as big as a pavilion, it is almost the same as the magic circle, but the formation still has a certain advantage, because the key to the formation is still in a 'law' word, as long as you find the same point as the formation and other academics, you can achieve the miraculous effect of borrowing the stone of other mountains to change the jade, just like the stone carving formation and the body of the formation,"
Thinking of this, he smiled heartily and bowed to Xiao Cong and said:
"Taught. β
Xiao Cong waved his hand impatiently, looking quite unimpressed by Ouyang Xun's sudden humility,
"Hurry up, look at it and it's sour, what's there to worship. β
"Haven't you always been like this before?"
Xiao Cong sneered a few times,
"Hmph, I'm worshipping people like you old men, I've worshiped you? β
Ouyang Xun pursed his lips, slapped his robe a few times, and didn't speak again.
