Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Soul Sealing Array, the Power of the Little Seven Levels
The small seven levels mentioned in the Soul Sealing Array refer to: Yunken Pass, Shangxian Pass, Zichen Pass, Shangyang Pass, Tianyang Pass, Yusu Pass and Taiyou Pass.
And these seven levels correspond to the seven stars of the Big Dipper.
The seven levels represent the flow of vitality in the area where the formation is placed, and to find the seven levels on the ground, you must first gaze at the stars.
Stargazing is a secret technique of Taoism, and Qin Yu doesn't understand it very well.
But from Mo Qiyuan's explanation, we can roughly understand some relevant knowledge.
Nine days is a stargazing cycle, this cycle is also called "the number of nine opposition", as long as you find a reference on the ground to observe from a fixed angle and mark the scale.
However, the Big Dipper will move, and every time it moves, the direction of the flow of life will change, and people will also be affected by this.
Looking at the Big Dipper at different times, the brightness of each star is different.
However, stargazing must conform to the principle of the number of nine levels, which is not only the stargazing cycle, but also the change cycle of the position of the seven levels in a place.
Within nine days, the position of the seven levels will not change, and the direction of the qi veins will not change, so the last day of the number of Chong Jiu, in some formations, is the best time to cast spells.
As for the change in the brightness of the Big Dipper, the direction of the local seven passes can be deduced according to the algorithm of the "General Principles of the Heavenly Evolution Bureau".
Regarding these news, Mo Qiyuan did not deliberately conceal it, but in order to let Qin Yu understand it faster, on the basis of the original annotations, he said it more popularly.
Because knowing is knowing, if there is no teaching, systematic study and specialization, just relying on this talk about hundreds of descriptions, you only know it but do not know why it is.
However, this astrogazing technique made Qin Yu have a strong interest, but it is a pity that at this time, the Taoist classics can only be studied unless they are approved by Zhang Tianshi, the head of the Zhengyi Sect.
This made Qin Yu a little disappointed.
The formation of Xiaoqiguan, after Mo Qiyuan was busy for half an hour, was finally laid out in the place where the corpse was buried in Fengmen Village.
By this time night had already fallen.
After doing all this, Mo Qiyuan and Ning Chonghua went to the location of He Yan's bones non-stop and began their layout.
Qin Yu took out the nine-song glass cup from his arms, and waited quietly with Huikong for the arrival of Zishi.
When the sun of heaven and earth gathers.
Once there was a battle in Mo Qiyuan's place, then these controlled ghosts would definitely rush to help under his call, and at this time, Xiao Qiguan in the Soul Sealing Array played an important role.
However, at this time, it was a matter of his own safety, and of course Qin Yu would not completely pin his life on the Jiuqu Glass Cup.
Before coming, he brought the ancient sword with him, and carried it behind his back.
As for the other two magic weapons, Qin Yu didn't dare to take them out at will, those two sentences of dry corpses were the costumes of Taoists and Buddhists, if they took out the gourd and Buddha beads, they would inevitably be suspicious of these three people.
Therefore, the sword of the Confucian predecessor is the best choice at this time.
The two of them were a little bored at the moment, and Huikong's eyes couldn't help but look at the sword behind Qin Yu, and asked curiously:
"Master Qin, I haven't seen this sword behind you before, it seems to be extraordinary, I don't know if I can show it to the little monk."
Hearing this, Qin Yu hesitated for a while, but still untied the ancient sword from behind him, handed it to Huikong, and said at the same time: "This sword was given by a Confucian predecessor. ”
Huikong took it with both hands, gently stroked the carving on the scabbard, and couldn't help but sigh:
"This scabbard is gentle to the touch, full of yang energy, I am afraid that it is made of hundred-year-old peach wood, the scabbard alone has the purpose of driving away ghosts and avoiding evil, but I am afraid that the sharp blade hidden in the scabbard must also be a good thing."
"I don't know about this." Qin Yu sneered.
Huikong stroked the scabbard and returned the ancient sword to Qin Yu.
Seeing that he hadn't even pulled out his sword, Qin Yu couldn't help but ask curiously, "Master Huikong, don't you draw your sword and take a look?" ”
"No need, the sword is a murder weapon, this scabbard is so good, presumably the blade of the sword is absolutely extraordinary, it doesn't matter whether you look at it or not."
Qin Yu was speechless, seeing that he really thought so, he didn't insist, and tied this ancient sword to his back again.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is midnight.
When the hour was about to arrive, in the closed door village, the yin qi began to gather, and the temperature dropped suddenly.
Huikong and Qin Yu also stood up at the same time at this moment, the two glanced at each other, and each took out a meditation talisman from his arms and put it on his chest.
And at this moment, in the distant dwellings, suddenly there was blood light rising into the sky, followed by the sound of fighting, and from time to time there were lightning flashes and fires.
I saw that Mo Qiyuan had already fought with the demon Dao.
Qin Yu also had a solemn look on his face, and immediately took out the Jiuqu glass cup, held it in the palm of his hand, and looked around with his eyes guarded.
The battle on the other side rang out, and the place where the corpses were buried began to be lively.
White ghosts constantly float out of the ground.
Among these ghosts, most of the ghosts had dull expressions on their faces, and only a few of them still had a sanity in their eyes, looking at the location of the village chief's house, a little curious look flashed on their faces.
Qin Yu saw the ghost figure appear, and immediately looked at Huikong who was standing not far away.
According to the plan agreed before, as long as there were ghosts, he would recite the requiem mantra, and then he used the Jiuqu glass cup to put these powerful ghosts into the glass cup.
But at this time, the number of ghosts was already dozens of them, but he didn't see Huikong chanting the requiem mantra, and Qin Yu couldn't help but panic a little in his heart.
Could it be that Huikong saw that there were too many ghosts and was worried that the requiem spell would not work?
Just when Qin Yu was worried about this, an extremely astonishing evil aura suddenly erupted from the front.
Qin Yu was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly looked ahead.
I saw a blood-red ghost slowly rising from the ground, and around the body, there was a layer of scarlet mist, which looked like blood, but it did not emit a fishy smell.
As soon as this ghost appeared, the other white ghosts scattered away as if they had encountered something terrible.
At this time, Huikong's face also showed a little shock, the red mist of this ghost was so intense, I was afraid that it would be difficult to deal with.
If Qin Yu is added, the two of them can still maneuver a little, but the time they will hold on will definitely not be long.
Today's hope can only be pinned on the formation of this little seven levels, which can hold him back, otherwise it will definitely cause a lot of trouble to Mo Qiyuan.
Qin Yu Yu Huikong was on the edge of the Xiaoqiguan formation, and at this moment the Demon Dao was busy dealing with Mo Qiyuan and the others.
These ghosts wanted to go over and help, so they didn't pay attention to the surroundings, and they didn't even notice Qin Yu and the others for a while.
And these wandering spirits and unjust souls in the field, after the appearance of this resentful ghost, seemed to have found the backbone of the main heart, and began to gather around it one after another, heading in the direction of the demon path.
But just when this group of ghosts approached the edge of Xiao Qiguan.
Seven rays of white light rose into the sky in different directions, intertwining with each other, forming a curtain of light that blocked these ghosts.
The slightly weaker spirit could not withstand the yang energy inside, and after screaming miserably, it hurriedly retreated, not daring to move forward. And although those unjust souls were not injured, they also showed fear on their faces from time to time, and they did not dare to continue to move forward.
For a while, among this group of ghosts, only the resentful ghost roared, and the red mist on his body rolled violently, turning into countless ghost hands, and began to tear the light curtain wildly.
Although the yang energy in it will cause damage to the red mist, it will make a sizzling sound and purify the resentment.
But this is a resentful ghost after all, and when those red mist disappear again, they are immediately restored.
Seeing that the Soul Sealing Array had successfully resisted the attack of the resentful ghost, Huikong and Qin Yu breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, at least for now, this resentful ghost would not be able to break the formation in a short period of time.
Just when the two of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In the distance, a shrill voice was heard.
The voice was extremely harsh, and it seemed to have some kind of power, which actually made the resentful ghost start to become irritable, and the red mist on his body instantly gathered, condensing into a huge red sphere in front of him.
The sphere was the size of a water tank, and from time to time several human faces with pained expressions appeared on its surface, making a whining ghostly sound.
Under the gaze of Qin Yu and Huikong, after the red ball was large enough to a certain extent, it crashed towards the light curtain.
There was a loud "boom".
The white light curtain shook suddenly, and the light immediately dimmed, obviously this blow caused a lot of losses to the Xiao Qiguan Array.
However, the power is so huge, relatively, the consumption of the resentful ghost is also very great, and even the red mist of the protective body cannot be maintained, revealing her original appearance, it turned out to be a middle-aged woman in her forties.
The resentful ghost looked extremely weak, and his resentful eyes stared at the light curtain in front of him for a while, and then he actually grabbed the two unjust spirits beside him, put them in his mouth and chewed them.
And just as it was chewing on the soul, the originally faint red mist actually began to recover!
