Chapter 11: The Way of the Formation (Part II)

Thank you Brother Yangzhigang for your tip!

Zhao Ran got up and carefully looked at the interior of the cave. The cave is sealed by mountain walls on three sides, and the entrance of the cave is west-north, and the air circulation is extremely poor. In general, the direction of the mountain range is north-south, and after the southerly wind turns into the valley in midsummer, it rushes northward, and it happens that it cannot penetrate the cave.

Zhu Qigu asked Zhao Ran to set up the Five Elements Cremation Golden Array, this array respects fire, according to the five elements of mutual restraint, fire is born of wood, and there is no wood to borrow in the cave; even if you can rely on the magic weapon to make a fire in vain, this fire is also "not burning", because the fire borrows the wind, but there is no wind here!

However, this was not difficult for Zhao Ran, he immediately entered the state of concentration and opened his eyes to observe the flow of qi, and then he keenly felt the vitality at the top of the east-facing mountain wall, he guessed that there should be a lush root system of a big tree above here, otherwise it would not be possible.

found the key, Zhao Ran immediately dug a small lateral pit here, and placed the bottle of cinnabar in it, which can be regarded as setting up the array. He also inserted the golden sword into the ground between the entrance of the cave and the eye of the array, refining the golden qi with the fire, pointing directly at the entrance of the cave, and killing it harshly.

If this is all there is, when there is no wind in the cave, the power of this array will be reduced by one level, and the maximum effect will not be achieved. Therefore, Zhao Ran made a small adjustment and buried the jade seal outside the cave instead of in the center of the array. The jade seal belongs to the earth, and burying this magic weapon outside the entrance of the cave is equivalent to erecting an earthen wall here to intercept the direction of the wind, which can introduce the wind into the cave. Of course, this is not to say that the jade seal can really change the direction of the wind, but he used the jade seal to introduce into the cave only the flowing qi engine, or to change the operation of the qi engine at the entrance of the cave, and connect the two separate qi engine operating systems inside and outside the cave through the guò jade seal, so that the closed qi in the cave can circulate - the wind is thus formed.

The remaining wooden rulers and water beads are arranged in the direction of the five elements, these two magic instruments are not important, of course, they are also indispensable, and they play a role in maintaining the balance and stability of the formation.

As soon as the deformed Five Elements Cremation Golden Array was completed, Zhu Qigu's face suddenly changed by three points, and she was silent for a long time, and asked, "You can actually detect the qi of heaven and earth?"

Zhao Ran confessed: "Yes." ”

Zhu Qigu sighed: "God treats you well, although you have no roots, but you have good qualifications, and you are born with the eyes of heaven, if you say that you will go out, I don't know how many cultivators will be envious." ”

Zhao Ran couldn't explain that he had the golden finger skill bar, but he didn't prevent him from knocking on the side: "Sister, is it difficult to cultivate the heavenly eye you said?"

Zhu Qigu said: "Don't you know, after turning into the Yuan Shen, it is a big step on the road of cultivation, the monk has seven tricks out of the spirit, and will evolve all kinds of magical powers on its own, the Taoist Sutra explains, saying that it is because the Yuan Shen can communicate with the heavens, so the heavens will give the monks all kinds of blessings, these magical powers are called 'talents', which have always been coveted by the monks, all because they do not need to consume mana to perform such 'natural powers'. But this can only be obtained after cultivating to the realm of refining gods, there is no one in ten thousand who has talent like you, not to mention that your talent is still the eye of heaven, it is even more difficult, it is really incredible!"

Zhao Ran was embarrassed when he said this, what kind of innate talent is supernatural? It is completely the skill attribute brought by the cheat cheat, and it has nothing to do with talent. Zhao Ran remembered that he had been considered unqualified and rootless in the first two years, but today he was recognized as well-qualified and talented, which is really ridiculous.

"Sister, what is your natural supernatural power?"

"One is the Eye of Heaven, and the other is the Divine Breath. Zhu Qigu replied very simply, but if outsiders are here, I am afraid that I can only sigh that God is unfair. Needless to say, the eye of heaven can observe the qi of heaven and earth, and the divine breath is also not simple, it is extremely sensitive to the changes in the smell around it, and the range of perception will be greatly expanded with the improvement of cultivation and the enhancement of mana.

Looking at the Five Elements Cremation Golden Array laid by Zhao Ran again, Zhu Qigu said: "In terms of the layout of the formation, I have nothing to tell you, after all, I am not good at this, the formation is one layer, and the layout and transformation of the formation can be adjusted according to the operation of the heaven and earth qi machine, and in this regard, you have done a good job." However, I want to ask you, what do you do when you encounter an opponent, such as the demon monk you met outside the Jinghu Pass?"

Zhao Ran was just about to blurt out the phrase "set up a formation to trap the enemy", when he suddenly realized a very strict question: Will that demon monk give him time to calmly set up the formation? The answer was obvious, and Zhao Ran was speechless for a moment.

Zhu Qigu said: "Therefore, if you are facing the enemy, you must have someone around you to protect you, this is one of them; second, it is difficult to set up a formation on the spot, the enemy is not a fool, and he will not be stupid to get into the formation you have laid out, so you must predict the enemy's whereabouts and set up a formation in advance where it must pass." With these two limitations, it is difficult for you to play a role. ”

Zhao Ran nodded silently, he remembered the battle he had in Luo Guan's Manor to assist Da Zhuo and Xiao Zhuo to eliminate demons, such an experience was really difficult to repeat.

"You have been in the jungle of the Daomen Ten Directions before, and you can't get in touch with the vastness of the outside world, if you want to close the door and keep yourself, you can live in it for a lifetime, glory and wealth can be expected, and naturally you don't have to think about so many sinisters on the rivers and lakes. But, are you willing?"

Zhao Ran shook his head, of course he was unwilling to eat and drink like this until he died, since he came to this world and didn't try to enter that side of the world, then what was the meaning of his life?

"We can't protect you forever, there will always be times when we are not by your side, and if you don't want to die in the world, you must have the ability to deal with danger on your own. Don't think that the danger only exists in the battle array, in addition to the battle with the Buddhist gate, for those who want to enter the door of monasticism, in fact, the great tomorrow is not peaceful. Although the Ming Dynasty respects the Daomen, not all cultivators are willing to accept the jurisdiction of the Daomen, and there are many families, many monastic sects, and many more scattered cultivators in the world......"

"Sister, just like you and a few senior brothers?"

"Yes, although a few of us worship under the master's disciple, we are all registered disciples, and we do not belong to the Taoist sect, and there are many, many monks like us in this Ming Dynasty. We can cling to the Daomen, not to anger the Daomen, and even accept the Daomen's dispatch at certain times, but that doesn't mean that we will worship the Daomen on top of our heads, and be cattle and horses - of course, the Daomen do not have such mandatory requirements. Therefore, in places you don't know, there are conflicts all the time, maybe for hatred, maybe for treasures, maybe for exercises, maybe just because of quarrels, or even the fight itself is just for fighting......"

"Understand that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are fights. ”

That's a good thing to say...... So, you have to learn how to use your formations well. The essence of the formation is to take advantage of the situation, which is a truth that all those who understand the formation understand. A compass and a few magic weapons don't seem to be a big deal, but when combined, they can be used in a way that we imagine. The most fundamental reason is to mobilize and borrow 'potential' in formations, such as the momentum of mountains and rivers, the momentum of plants and trees, the momentum of stars and moons, and so on. But what exactly is 'potential'? The vast majority of people think they understand it very well, but in fact they don't understand that 'potential' is not a force, force is the appearance, not its origin, and force is an effect rather than a cause. In the eyes of the true formation masters, the qi machine running in heaven and earth is the real 'potential', and the power of the formation lies in changing or adapting to the qi machine, so as to mobilize the infinite power of nature...... Do you understand what I mean?"

Zhao Ran understood too well, his own first arrangement was completed by the inspection of the heaven and earth qi, if Zhu Qigu's words were correct, then Yu Zhao Ran said that it was equivalent to finding the origin of the formation from the beginning, and of course he could understand Zhu Qigu's explanation of the formation.

Zhu Qigu said with a smile: "It's me who asked you superfluously, since you were born with heavenly eyes and can see the qi of heaven and earth, there must be no problem with this." Then I went on to say, since the layout of the formation is to change or conform to the Heaven and Earth Qi Machine, then on the other hand, no matter how the formation is arranged, as long as it can be changed or integrated into the Heaven and Earth Qi Machine, the formation will be considered successful?"

Zhao Ran was stunned for a moment, seemed to have an understanding in his heart, thought hard for a while, and couldn't help asking: "That is to say, when arranging the formation, you don't have to stick to the formation method, or you don't have to stick to the formation method set by the formation diagram, as long as it is useful, you can do it arbitrarily?"

Zhu Qigu asked rhetorically: "Didn't you do this when you laid out the Five Elements Cremation Golden Array just now?"

Zhao Ran suddenly brightened up, and couldn't help but be full of joy.
