"This ...... This is too fast!" Zhu Yuan couldn't believe it when he saw that the white-robed Daoist came out of the formation he had arranged so quickly. This is a large-scale formation that I have done my best to fully exert my perception of the formation in the past two years, as well as the understanding and sorting in the past month, and the level of the formation after improvement. Unexpectedly, the tea cup kung fu was cracked. Zhu Yuan, as the controller of the formation, was fully aware of what was happening in the formation, and the white-robed Daoist had indeed cracked his formation with only the mana of the Bigu Period. This time, Zhu Yuan felt devastated.

"Don't be discouraged, you've done a great job. The white-robed Taoist said encouragingly.

"But senior, you only used the tea cup time to crack my formation. Zhu Yuan said dejectedly.

"It's also very good, our formation level is not at the same level at all. Last time, when the immortal cultivator who had reached the eighty-first order set up the formation for me to crack it for the first time, it took me even less time than this time. So you're already very good, keep up the good work!" the white-robed Taoist comforted Zhu Yuandao.

"Senior, I want to ask, did the senior who reached the eighty-first order last time pass the test?" Zhu Yuan was very curious about whether the monk who came to the eighty-first order before him had passed the test, so it was also a reference for himself. After all, this Heavenly Ladder has existed for tens of thousands of years, and he is the second monk to reach the eighty-first order. You can see how difficult this test is.

"Actually, it's nothing to tell you, the only monk who reached the eighty-first rank before you didn't pass the test that time. However, I am optimistic about you, and I am sure that you will pass the test. Come on!" the white-robed Taoist continued to encourage Zhu Yuan. He didn't want to give up the test after tens of thousands of years when another monk had reached the eighty-first rank.

"Senior, this is already a formation that the junior has done his best to arrange. The predecessors actually cracked it with only a tea cup. In the next less than a year, it is really difficult for the juniors to be promoted to a level that can trap the seniors for half an hour. Zhu Yuan explained.

"No, you'd be wrong. In fact, the formations you arranged before seem complicated and varied. In fact, it didn't exert the full power of the formation. Although you managed to make them connect with each other, you used superposition, overlapping, nesting, and many other means. But in fact, the power of each formation has not increased much, and they are still fighting separately. At most, the phantom array has been added to the maze, and the effect of the phantom array has been added. In fact, these two formations are still independent in terms of effect, and they produce the effects of confusion and illusion respectively. When you understand this, your formation level will be greatly improved. With the formation you laid out before, if you can exert all your might, it will be absolutely no problem to trap me for half an hour. The white-robed Taoist continued to encourage Zhu Yuan.

"Thank you seniors for solving your doubts, the juniors will not disappoint the seniors. Zhu Yuan said firmly.

"Don't give up easily. After the white-robed Taoist finished speaking, he disappeared.

......

Zhu Yuan knew that he had hit too hard before, so he had the idea of giving up, which was not good. Fortunately, the white-robed Taoist woke himself up, otherwise, he might really give up.

Zhu Yuan continued to comprehend the formation, and what the white-robed Taoist said was right. The formations arranged by Zhu Yuan, each formation is fighting its own battle, and at most it is just to assist each other. Speaking of which, it was just the original formation, no matter how complicated Zhu Yuan's arrangement was, it had not changed in essence. It's just a combination of these basic formations, and the only thing that changes is the organizational form of the formation. If you do this, the power of the formation can be improved quite limited, and it is impossible to trap the white-robed Daoist for half an hour.

What Zhu Yuan needed to do was to start with these basic formations and improve the power of the formations little by little. Fundamentally changing the formation is not a simple superposition of the two formations. Merge the two formations into one and make a brand new formation. Thus producing the effect that one plus one is greater than the sum of its parts.

For example, the Five Elements Tribulation Annihilation Array in the third level. The Five Elements Tribulation Array contains the effects of the Phantom Array, the Maze Array, the Killing Array, and the Trapped Array. The reason why this is a formation has a formation name. It is because it is a whole, a complete formation. And not some other superposition of multiple formations. This is the upgrade of the formation. The Five Elements Tribulation Annihilation Array is mainly based on the killing formation, supplemented by many other formations. This Five Elements Tribulation Annihilation Array has the effects of a maze array, a phantom array, and a trapped array. This is not because of the arrangement of these three formations. It is the formation attribute of this Five Elements Tribulation Annihilation Array. The Five Elements Tribulation Array was based on the Five Elements Killing Array, and then after many complex changes, this powerful Five Elements Tribulation Array was finally formed.

After a month of enlightenment, Zhu Yuan finally improved again. This time, Zhu Yuan arranged the formation and asked the white-robed Taoist to crack it. Zhu Yuan was still based on the original formations, but now he has changed slightly. The formation has become more round. When the formations are combined with each other, the power is even greater. Just by taking a look, the white-robed Daoist had not yet entered the breaking formation, so he nodded secretly, praising Zhu Yuan's rapid progress.

Sure enough, this time, the white-robed Daoist took more than twice as long to crack the formation as before.

"The formation is precious, but not many. This time there has been a lot of progress, keep up the good work. Come on!" the white-robed Taoist left a word and disappeared.

"The formation is precious, but not many. That's right, I've laid out too many formations. Deletions are required. Zhu Yuan muttered to himself.

However, if the formation is deleted, it will face another problem. That is, the formation has been deleted, and the time that can trap the white-robed Daoist has been shortened. Then it is necessary to increase the power of the remaining formations.

Zhu Yuan tried little by little. Keep cutting formations, and at the same time constantly improve the formations you want to keep. Every time he made a big change, Zhu Yuan would invite the white-robed Daoist to crack the formation and give it a try. Every time, more or less will be praised by the white-robed Taoist.

Another two months passed, and Zhu Yuan finally reached his limit. Now, all the formations have been fused into one by Zhu Yuan. There is only one formation left here. Since he wanted to trap the white-robed Daoist, Zhu Yuan arranged a formation that was mainly based on the trapping formation, supplemented by the restraint formation, the forbidden formation, the maze formation, and the killing formation. The effect of these formations is just to confuse the white-robed Daoist and make the white-robed Daoist break the formation for a longer time, and the longer he is trapped, the lower the possibility of the white-robed Daoist breaking through the formation.

"If it doesn't work this time, it's really not very promising. Zhu Yuan muttered to himself. Now Zhu Yuan has reached a formation bottleneck. It's really hard to get up again. This is not something that can be done in such a short period of time.

Immediately, Zhu Yuan invited the white-robed Taoist to crack the formation.

"This time you look like you're in a big grip. Just so confident. Before the white-robed Daoist broke the formation, he made a joke with Zhu Yuan first. Then he walked into the formation.

"Let's start!" the white-robed Taoist commanded.

"Yes, Senpai. Zhu Yuan immediately checked the opening formation.

After the formation was activated, the white-robed Daoist immediately felt that this formation was very different from the previous one. But there are still traces. After all, Zhu Yuan has not improved or modified the formation every time, and he will invite the white-robed Taoist to break the formation and give it a try. Therefore, the white-robed Taoist has a better understanding of Zhu Yuan's formation style. However, this time the formation is obviously much more mysterious. It's quite difficult to crack.

Finally, half an hour passed. The white-robed Daoist still couldn't crack the formation arranged by Zhu Yuan. 、

"The hour has come, Zhu Yuan, you have passed. Let's open the formation. Half an hour later, the white-robed Daoist still hadn't been able to break through the formation. So he gave up breaking the formation and shouted at the same time. In the eyes of the white-robed Taoist, as long as the formation arranged by Zhu Yuan can trap him for half an hour, he will be considered to have passed the test. As for whether he chooses to continue to break the formation, it doesn't matter.

"Yes, Senpai. Hearing the voice of the white-robed Taoist, Zhu Yuan jumped up excitedly. I finally completed the task and passed the test without any problems. The past two and a half years have not been in vain, and I am finally about to harvest. At the same time, Zhu Yuan immediately responded and opened the formation ban.

"What reward will you get if you pass the ladder test?" Zhu Yuan secretly looked forward to it. Zhu Yuan really wanted to know what kind of reward Lu Dao would be. After all, it took a lot of effort to pass the test. And listening to the meaning of the white-robed Taoist, I am the only immortal cultivator who has passed the test for tens of thousands of years. Since the test is so difficult, the rewards will definitely be even more generous in the end.

"Could it be the immortal weapon in the creation theory?" Zhu Yuan thought to himself.

"Zhu Yuan, congratulations on passing the test. "The white-robed Daoist who had just come out of the formation arranged by Zhu Yuan congratulated Zhu Yuandao.

"Thank you, senior!" Zhu Yuan also immediately thanked the white-robed Taoist.

"Alright, let's go to the Autumn Hades Temple! The white-robed Taoist urged Zhu Yuan to arrive. At the same time, he also informed Zhu Yuan that he was going to get the reward for passing the test in the Autumn Hades Temple.

"It's good, senior. Let's go to the Temple of the Autumn Hades. I'm really looking forward to what the reward will be. Zhu Yuan said.

"Don't ask around, you'll know the Tao when you arrive. "The white-robed Taoist deliberately sold Guan Zidao.

Soon, Zhu Yuan and the white-robed Taoist arrived at the Autumn Hades Hall on the top of the mountain.

"Zhu Yuan, don't you have anything to know before you get the reward?" The white-robed Taoist was not in a hurry to give Zhu Yuan a reward, but chatted with Zhu Yuan first.

"Back to the seniors, the younger generations really have a lot of questions. I hope that the seniors will solve their doubts. Zhu Yuan said.

"Ask, I know I'll tell you everything. The white-robed Taoist said generously.

"I want to ask if my predecessors are immortals, and in addition, whether the owner of this Autumn Styx Mountain is an immortal. Is the predecessor the owner of the Autumn Styx Mountain, if not, then where is the owner of the Autumn Styx Mountain?" Zhu Yuan asked. "I haven't asked my predecessors for their names. Zhu Yuan suddenly thought that he hadn't asked the name of the white-robed Taoist yet, so he continued to ask.

"You can just call me Jinque. The white-robed Taoist replied.
