Chapter 16: Formations
When he came to the city, Mo Zhuoyu first found a shop that specialized in repairing magic weapons. I found a refiner and took the two magic weapons to repair. Fortunately, they are only first-class magic weapons, and the refiner's skills are good, and they were repaired in less than half a day. Although it cannot be said that it is brand new, it does not delay its use.
Mo Zhuoyu came out and went to the elixir shop again, and sold all the elixirs and demon beast corpses that had been sorted out a few days ago.
Although the elixirs are all of the same product, they are better than the quantity, and they still sell hundreds of spirit stones. But the corpses of demon beasts, because some of them are mutilated and some are not properly preserved. Plus the first-grade demon beast is not worth much, and it will be sold for less than a hundred spirit stones in total.
However, Mo Zhuoyu does not dislike it, no matter how few spirit stones there are, they are still spirit stones. Next, when you buy pills, you have to prepare to build a foundation, and there are many places to use spirit stones.
In addition to these two things today, Mo Zhuoyu is also going to go to the city to stay and fast, looking for the secret book of the formation.
Liufu Zhai is a place on the Lingyun Continent that specializes in selling exercise cheats. It is the same as the Lingbao Pavilion, which specializes in magic weapons, and the Aoki Pavilion, which sells pills, and is known as the three major merchants in the Lingyun Continent.
Who is the main family behind Ruto Lent has not been disclosed. However, if you can do business all over the continent, and you can also sell such a sensitive thing as the cheats of the exercises, the background must be unfathomable.
Mo Zhuoyu had already looked at the map carefully before setting off. At this time, there is no need to ask anyone, just look for it.
From the outside, it doesn't look like a shop, but like a big family's house.
A huge mansion occupies nearly half of the street. There are two stone lions at the door, standing majestically on the left and right. If the door is opened, there will be two attendants on the left and right who are practicing qi.
When he came to this Aoki City, Mo Zhuoyu couldn't help but sigh, practicing qi like a dog, building a foundation and walking all over the ground. In the Lushan faction, they can be regarded as high-ranking qi cultivators, but in Aoki City, as long as there are shops that can be on the table, they are all hired qi cultivators.
Mo Zhuoyu came to the door, and the waiter immediately greeted him. After she explained the purpose of wanting to see the formation cheats, she immediately led them to a courtyard.
"Fellow Daoist, what kind of formation cheats do you want to see?" the waiter entered the courtyard and introduced, "This is a defensive formation, this room here is full of offensive formations, and there are other trapped people, illusions, etc." ”
Mo Zhuoyu said, "I haven't decided which one to buy for the time being, can I take a look everywhere first?"
The waiter immediately bowed down, "It's okay, that fellow Daoist, please feel free." If you like it, you can take it to the front door to pay the bill. ”
After speaking, he bowed to Mo Zhuoyu and withdrew.
Mo Zhuoyu looked at the introduction of the houses on the left and right, although because of the phantom array, he was very interested in the illusion formation. But when I think of my own formation, I basically don't know anything, so I still advanced the room of the basic formation.
When I entered the house, I saw three long rows of bookshelves as high as a room in the horizontal row. On the bookshelf, there are all kinds of jade slips secretly.
The jade slip of the cultivation realm feels like a USB flash drive in Mo Zhuoyu's previous life. It can store all kinds of information, but the reader has become a monk's spiritual house.
There was no one else in the room, Mo Zhuoyu stepped forward and looked at it in turn, and the name of the cheats was written in front of each jade slip.
Mo Zhuoyu picked up one and read it, and he could also see the detailed table of contents and general introduction from the jade slip.
In view of the fact that he was almost zero-based, Mo Zhuoyu looked at the price, and finally picked three jade slips, "Overview of Lingyun Continent Formation", "Introduction to Formation", and "Ten Introductory Formations". When I came out of the house, I couldn't help but be curious, and when I came to the Phantom Array Cheats, I chose another copy of "Phantom Array Foundation".
came out to pay for the spirit stone, and the practice cheats have always been very expensive. Although the most basic books were chosen, in the end, nearly two hundred spirit stones were paid, and the accommodation fee for two years was required.
Mo Zhuoyu endured the heartache, stopped wandering the streets, and returned to the premises after buying the Qi Gathering Pill needed for cultivation.
In the current cultivation realm, cultivators will always choose to practice a skill for the sake of their own cultivation path.
The most popular of these are alchemy, training tools, and spells. After all, although the conditions are harsh and it consumes spirit stones to learn, it is easy to earn spirit stones after learning well. And even if you use it yourself, you can save a lot of spirit stones.
In addition, there are also small paths such as planting, weaving, and cooking, and although there are not many people who practice them, they can also have their own system.
It's a formation, not a trail. However, because of the difficulty of learning and the harsh practice conditions, most people are blocked from the door.
Mo Zhuoyu doesn't have to choose a hard persimmon. However, alchemy and training tools must require a fire spirit root, or a body with a spiritual fire. And Mo Zhuoyu does not have these two things, although the spell technique is also broad and profound, but it is not what Mo Zhuoyu is interested in.
Because of the Phantom Spirit Array, after Mo Zhuoyu first came into contact with the formation, he had to be attracted by the subtlety in it. It's just a few seemingly ordinary stones, and when put together, they can exert such a magical reaction, which is really addictive.
Although formation cultivation has always been considered the most difficult technique to practice. But Mo Zhuoyu believes in the saying "There is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of those who have a heart".
As for the harsh conditions for practice, not to mention. There is no such thing as cultivating immortal techniques, but if the formation can really be practiced well, it will be difficult to be in the battle in the future.
Mo Zhuoyu made up his mind, so he took out the three jade slips that introduced the foundation of the formation. After roughly browsing through the content, Mo Zhuoyu had a general idea of the formation.
According to Mo Zhuoyu's understanding, the formation is to take advantage of the favorable time and place, coupled with the reasonable arrangement of the orientation and spiritual power guidance, to form a field in the space. Different formation diagrams will lead to different effects. There are also the so-called phantom arrays, trapped arrays, defensive arrays, etc.
The formation can be arranged temporarily, or it can be made into a spirit plate from specific spiritual materials.
Temporary arrangement of formations, although it can be adapted to local conditions and improvised. However, it requires the formation person to have a deep foundation and be able to adjust the direction of the formation's spiritual power at any time according to the situation.
The finished spirit plate has no requirements for the caster, as long as he masters the use of the formation, anyone can set up the formation. However, because the spiritual power of the formation is all engraved, the formation cannot be changed at will when it is used, which greatly reduces the power of some formations.
For example, Mo Zhuoyu's previous phantom array, if he could arrange it by himself, then the arrayer could even control the content of the trapped person's illusion.
However, the finished array plate has created a way for the array mages to earn spirit stones. It also allows people who don't know the formation to easily master and use the formation.
And the ten introductory formations are the simplest and most practical formations of all formations.
There are defensive Jingang arrays, flat evasion arrays, and sky star arrays, and the cloud piercing arrays, ten formations, high chang arrays, and fragmented arrays that are mainly used for attacks, as well as trapped arrays, foolish arrays, interpretation arrays, and phantom arrays.
Although the formation is not divided into one to nine grades like the pill magic weapon, it is also divided into four levels. Although these ten formations are all yellow-level formations, they can all be used in the Qi cultivation foundation and even the Jindan period. Among them, such as the Sky Star Array, the Fragment Array, etc., if used properly, they may not be able to resist the Jindan Monks.
Although Mo Zhuoyu didn't expect to be able to compete with Brother Jindan, it was also good that he could increase his combat effectiveness to a certain extent. After all, now he has an unknown enemy himself.
Thinking of the two ambushes, Mo Zhuoyu felt even more urgency in his heart. I have strengthened my determination to practice the formation, and it is imperative to improve my cultivation.
Mo Zhuoyu patiently read the introduction of the ten formations and the methods of cultivation one by one.
However, he was greedy and chewed too much, and in the end, Mo Zhuoyu chose a major from various types such as defensive attacks. They are the Sky Star Array, the Fragmented Array, and the Foolish Array.
In fact, among the ten formations, Mo Zhuoyu was of course most interested in the phantom formation-Plausibility.
However, the phantom array is different from other formations, and it is difficult to refine it successfully without the support of actual exercises. And buying "The Foundation of the Phantom Array" is just a simple introduction to the conditions and experiences of cultivating the Phantom Array. Helpless, Mo Zhuoyu could only give up for the time being.
Of the others, Mo Zhuoyu chose either the most powerful or the most potential.
Needless to say, the Empty Star Array, as a yellow-level formation, is simply arranged according to the most ordinary materials, and it is also capable of cultivating Qi ninth-level cultivators. The fragmented array and the foolish array also have their own characteristics.
However, although I have a rough idea of the principle of the formation. But there are still 108,000 miles away from truly mastering the layout of the formation.
This is not a matter of a while, and Mo Zhuoyu is not in a hurry. I only slowly took time to study in between cultivation.
The aura of the rented cave is good, and in this Aoki City, Mo Zhuoyu basically has no acquaintances. Every day, he only practiced behind closed doors, and the days passed with the cultivation day by day.
In the blink of an eye, the cave house rented by Mo Zhuoyu has reached the lease period. Because he was determined to cultivate here, Mo Zhuoyu came to Xunxian Residence, and then paid the rent for another three years.
Coming out of the Immortal Seeking Residence, Mo Zhuoyu thought that there were not many spirit stones on his body. The materials needed to refine the formation cost a lot, and he also had to prepare the elixir of Zhuji Dan, so Mo Zhuoyu decided to find a way to earn spirit stones.
Remembering a place on the map, Mo Zhuoyu walked towards the center of the city.
Aoki Castle is under the management of the Aoki sect, and the center of the castle is the council of the Aoki sect here. The big and small affairs of the monks in Aoki Castle, whether they are setting up stalls or opening shops, or making decisions about disputes, are all in charge there.
And there, there is also a place where the audience loves to practice. The Council has a dedicated task hall dedicated to the issuance of various tasks. The tasks were issued by the Aoki sect and by the monks in the city. However, if you can complete it, you will be rewarded accordingly. With the Aoki sect as a guarantee, no one dares to violate the agreement at will.
Mo Zhuoyu's trip was to find some tasks to earn spirit stones.
All the way to the council, enter the door and enter the mission hall.
The spacious hall was densely packed with monks who had come to look for a mission.
The walls are constantly popping up with all kinds of quest information.
