Chapter 135: Cultivation is steadily improving
Without a suitable foundation building period exercise, Li Qiao took pills to assist in cultivation, and his cultivation speed was not much faster, so he had the idea of arranging a spirit gathering array in his cave.
This is the purpose of exchanging formation materials at Lingdui Peak, after a little twist and turn, after the formation materials are in hand, Li Qiao began to arrange the Spirit Gathering Array in the cave.
The formation is difficult to get started, and it takes a lot of time and energy, but after getting started, it is simple to say, according to the arrangement of the formation in the record, it is easy to arrange the formation, but there are no two places in the immortal cultivation world, and the formation is exactly the same, and sometimes the gap will be very large.
Take the spirit gathering array that Li Qiao wants to arrange as an example, with a large number of medium-grade spirit stones as the core, it can generally increase the aura environment by two percent, even if it is qualified, but if it is purely arranged according to the array diagram and does not add some changes made according to the calculation of the surrounding environment, it may be that the formation is arranged, and even the effect of increasing half of the aura cannot be achieved.
The formation mage in the ancient era was not so difficult, but with the lack of some precious array materials in the immortal cultivation world, thinking of maintaining the power of the formation, he could only start from the details of all aspects, if every era of immortal cultivation had a synonym, then the era of immortal cultivation that Li Qiao was living in now could be called the era of the decline of the formation.
As the core of the spirit gathering array, the spirit stone is indispensable, and the spirit gathering effect of a spirit gathering array is not only to see the strength of the arrangement of the formation, but also the quality of the spirit stone at the core is also very important.
Li Qiao has a high-grade spirit stone in his hand, and the effect of using a high-grade spirit stone is of course the best, but when he thinks of dividing a large piece of high-grade spirit stone, he is a little reluctant, and finally thinks that using a high-grade spirit stone is too ostentatious.
The arrangement of the formation is not cumbersome, what is really cumbersome is how to accurately determine the location of various array materials, but this can be a shortcut for Li Qiao, because the pupil technique can see the operation effect of the formation, so after quickly arranging the formation, just keep making adjustments, although this is also a delicate job, it takes a lot of time, but it is better than the calculation of the amount of heaven, how is the effect of the formation, and the kind of luck that is stronger.
In just over a month, Li Qiao adjusted the effect of the Spirit Gathering Array to the normal level, although there is still hope to continue to adjust, but it will inevitably take more time, and after the effect of the formation reaches the normal level, an incident that happened also made him give up the idea of continuing to adjust the formation.
Just a few days after the formation was adjusted, after Li Qiao experienced the effect of the Gathering Spirit Array and the auxiliary medicine of the Gathering Spirit Array several times, Li Zongjing, the Jindan monk of the family, took the initiative to come to the door.
When the other party suddenly appeared in his cave, Li Qiao was very surprised.
"Meet the Elders!"
"The effect of the Spirit Gathering Array is good, you arranged it yourself?" The other party looked at Li Qiao and asked, Li Zongjing knew the answer, but he still couldn't help but want to confirm it.
"Because there is no suitable exercise, the cultivation speed is too slow, so I had the idea of using the Spirit Gathering Array to assist, because I also spent a lot of thought on the formation before, so I tried it myself, but the effect of the formation after the arrangement was too poor, so I kept trying to adjust, but I didn't expect that the luck was not bad, and it actually achieved the current effect." Although the other party didn't ask, Li Qiao still explained something and attributed the effect of the formation to luck.
"If it's arranged, it's arranged, you can arrange it, and others can't say anything, it's just that I felt that the aura near the family had changed, so I came over to see the reason."
The monk of the family Lingdui Peak didn't know much about the formation, after all, there were very few formation mages in the Li family, and he thought that it was very powerful to be able to arrange the formation, and the family Jin Dan obviously knew more about the formation, and while saying these words, he was also constantly observing the formation arranged by Li Qiao, and he did find a lot of traces of modification.
Then he briefly chatted with Li Qiao for a few words before leaving.
Li Qiao couldn't guess if the other party had any purpose, but when he saw that nothing happened in the end, he was relieved, but because of this incident, he also gave up the idea of continuing to modify the formation, because he realized one thing from the words of the family Jin Dan, that is, the Spirit Gathering Array would more or less affect the surrounding aura environment.
assemble
The spirit array will continue to absorb the surrounding aura, so that the aura effect in the cave will be maintained at a good level, correspondingly, the aura in other nearby areas will inevitably be affected a little.
Li Qiao hadn't thought about such a problem before, but when he thought that he was just an ordinary Spirit Gathering Array, the impact should be minimal, but he didn't expect to be able to directly lead to the family Jin Dan.
In fact, this kind of spirit gathering array, in addition to arranging it yourself, of course, you can also ask someone to arrange it, such as the formation mage in the family, but because there are a lot of formation materials needed, and the family formation mage will also open his mouth, there are very few family monks who can arrange it.
The sudden appearance of the family Jin Dan was not because of the Spirit Gathering Array, but because Li Qiao's sudden display of the formation level was a bit surprising, Li Qiao's time to learn the formation, the family had records, and if there was an abnormal situation, it was inevitable to take a look.
Of course, the theory of luck can also explain the past, after all, only one formation has been arranged, if this level of formation continues to be shown in the future, the family Jin Dan thinks that he can also pay attention to it, so he doesn't care about it for the time being.
And after that, the family Jin Dan found that in addition to Li Qiao's normal cultivation and occasional outings, a lot of time and resources were spent in the formation pavilion, and he didn't care about Li Qiao's formation level, because as time went by, the deeper the understanding of the formation, it was normal for the other party to be able to arrange a formation with normal power.
It's just that Li Qiao is arranging the formation, exchanging the elixir for cultivation, and learning in the formation pavilion, this kind of performance of cultivation resources is not very bad, which makes this family monk sigh that the other party's luck in breaking into the immortal cultivation realm is good.
Many family cultivators also had some understanding of Li Qiao's cultivation resources in private, but they could only sigh that Li Qiao's luck was good and bold.
The reason why this is the case is because Li Qiao has done some processing on the acquisition of resources, just like the process of the patriarch asking him about the origin of the sect monk's spiritual weapon flying sword, he will not say that he is against the two sects and directly snatched it from the other party, it is too troublesome to explain.
And the spirit weapon flying sword had the mark of that sect on it, and I had to explain that Li Qiao's statement was that he happened to encounter two sect monks fighting inwardly, and they didn't kill each other, but they were also seriously injured, so he took the risk to snatch it, and the reason was more or less in the past, after all, in the world of cultivating immortals, if you are lucky, anything may happen.
This kind of example of going out and getting good results is placed in front of him, which makes some of the monks of the family excited, but basically they are all inner monks, and if they want to go out, they have to ask for the consent of the family, and as the foundation of the family, under the condition of cultivating in the family for a long time, Li Qiao also has to occasionally participate in some family meetings, and at a family meeting, this kind of discussion appeared.
"Many monks in the family have the idea of going out, although there are clan rules, no one dares to mess around, but they all deny it, isn't it not good." A family Zhuji said this, and when he said these words, this family Zhuji also glanced at Li Qiao, and somewhat expressed who caused this problem.
Li Qiao was noncommittal about this, he went out to wander, and he gained a good harvest, and he didn't hide it, some people also want to try their luck, what does it have to do with him!
"If you want me to see it, just choose some to go out, and when a few die, they will know that it is better to stay in the family." There were other family monks who said coldly, and there was something unkind in their words, but several monks agreed.
On the surface, it really can't be seen whether they are looking forward to a few deaths, or if they have the idea of letting the monks who have a relationship with them go on a rampage, danger is danger, but danger also contains some opportunities.
Most of the family members are inner monks, there are very few outer monks, and there are even fewer outer monks like Li Qiao who often wander around, so although most of the family monks know the dangers of the immortal cultivation world in their hearts, there are some things that they know and experience differently.
"Isn't it against the clan rules to let the inner monks go out and wander around?" Doubts have been raised.
"It's just a special case, it's not the norm, it's not a violation, it's too depressing their thoughts, and it's not good for the development of the family." Immediately after that, someone replied like this.
"I think it's okay to ......" As the number of foundation-building monks who agreed with it increased, the possibility of letting some of the inner monks also go out and wander became more and more likely, and then someone asked again
A key question: "Who do you want to go out the most?" If you let you go out, who will go?"
Then someone kept saying the names of some of the family Qi cultivators, but before they could say a few, suddenly a voice sounded, making the entire meeting silent.
"Li Yanhe can't go!"
Of course, the only one who can speak with this kind of power is the family Jindan.
In ordinary family meetings, only the patriarch and most of the family foundation building monks, and occasionally there will be a family Jindan Li Zongjing, and at the time of this discussion, the family Jindan happened to be there.
This kind of family meeting, if you want to speak, you can speak, if you don't want to speak, no one cares, Li Qiao's principle has always been to listen more and talk less, or even not to speak, he is more interested in analyzing the situation of these monks in the intricate relationship of the family from the words of the family members.
And at this moment, hearing Brother Jindan's sudden words, Li Qiao immediately recalled the situation about Li Yanhe, but the other party seemed to have nothing to do with the family Brother Jindan except that he was too handsome.
Although no one asked, Li Yanhe, who is the Jin Dan of the family, still explained: "The monks of other families went out to gamble on luck, and Li Yan went out with that guy, and there is a high probability that he will not be able to come back."
"Yan He's ...... to the family" A family foundation began to speak for Li Yanhe, but before he could continue, the family Jin Dan said the reason: "That guy is too good-looking, in the immortal cultivation world, it is dangerous to look too ugly, and it is dangerous to look too good-looking, even if there is no worry about his life, it is not good to be robbed by other monks."
As if to increase the credibility of his words, the family Jin Dan continued: "There are some things you just don't know, the family Jin Dan of the two nearby families, which one has not robbed a good-looking monk passing by outside?"
Hearing such an answer, Li Qiao was a little surprised, Li Yanhe is a male cultivator, and he knows it. Generally, immortal cultivators are not bad, he only pays more attention to the appearance of female cultivators, but he didn't expect that male cultivators would also be robbed.
Maybe he was used to it, he always thought that his appearance was not bad, but he didn't expect that he was not very good-looking, I don't know how many times he saved himself in secret, especially when he thought of the high-level female cultivator he met on the way back, this feeling was stronger.
Not to mention the cranky thoughts in Li Qiao's heart, as soon as he finished saying this, the monks on the scene all subconsciously glanced at the family Jindan monk.
The Jin Dan of the other two families has robbed people, do you always know so well that you have also robbed people? Maybe maybe you didn't even rob each other? You must know that the family Jindan monks have a unique space, and it is normal for them to not know if they really hide a few monks to raise them.
In the tacit understanding, it seems to convey such a meaning.
Jindan monk Li Yanhe glanced around, didn't say anything, but expressed an expression that he all looked at what I did.
At this moment, Li Qiao thought of the existence of Xiyang Danshi, who often squatted in the Fang City, was there a possibility, there were no foreign good-looking female monks in the Fang City at all, and the nearby immortal cultivation families were like this, not to mention the entire immortal cultivation world.
At this moment, Li Qiao realized that if he didn't have enough strength and wanted something, he could only choose the rest by others, and the competition in the immortal cultivation world was everywhere, but there were many things that he couldn't see, and no one said it.
If Brother Jin Dan is a monk, no one will generally object, and the whole thing can be determined, and some monks in the family can go out, except for Li Yanhe.
But it turned out that the immortal cultivation world was not so easy to break through, and the six qi cultivators who left the family went to the immortal cultivation realm, and within a few months, they extinguished four soul lamps one after another, and four died. And the remaining two returned within two or three years, one of them had almost no gain, and his strength had hardly increased during this time, while the other family monk who came back was even worse, constantly gaining nothing, and came back with a body injury.
This result made some of the monks in the family who were eager to try to break into the immortal cultivation realm because of Li Qiao calm down, the immortal cultivation world is not so easy to break through, and good luck is not something that everyone can have.
During this time, Li Qiao didn't have the heart to focus on the family and cultivation, some things had to be faced sooner or later, and a few years after returning to the family, his parents finally left one after another due to old age.
I always feel that I can see through Li Qiao, who is separated from life and death
At this time, I felt deep grief, and after half a year of adjustment, I gradually recovered.
Cultivating, learning formations, and occasionally meeting a certain female cultivator have become Li Qiao's daily routine, and in the loss of time, his cultivation has steadily improved.
