Chapter 193: Sideways
Regarding the title of Array Dao Grand Master, there is a conventional rule in the cultivation world, that is, those who can create a unique Dao Array system, or fight against two Grandmasters in the process of fighting with monks who are also Array Dao Grandmasters, and those who meet any of these two can be called Array Dao Grand Masters!
The Great Grandmaster itself is just an honorary title, and it does not represent the Formation Mage's Formation Dao realm.
Just like a grandmaster who has pioneered a new Dao Array system, his own Array Dao attainments may not be higher than those of the Formation Mage who has achieved the Grandmaster step by step according to the inheritance of his predecessors, but his contribution to the Formation Dao is definitely greater than the latter!
In the same way, a formation mage who can defeat two grandmasters in the process of fighting the formation without defeat, his own formation attainment is naturally extremely high, but it does not mean that this person can arrange a set of immortal formations to surpass all the formation grandmasters.
However, when Yang Junshan's original Five Elements Thunder Light Dao Array was born in Yuzhou, even with the help of two Daoists to survive the Thunder Tribulation, among the array path monks, there were those who were surprised and unbelievers, and there were also those who did not hesitate to admire, but almost all the formation mages had reservations about calling a monk who had only been a cultivator for more than a hundred years together as a great grandmaster.
Among the hundred arts of cultivation, array mages may not be as popular as alchemists or refiners, and it can even be said that the number of array mages is very small, and they may not be as closely related to the cultivation career of monks as alchemists or refiners, but the loftiness and pride of formation mages, as well as the encyclopedic omniscience and omnipotence they show in the formation together, are recognized by the cultivation community.
In other words, if you can understand it better, that is, the formation mage has the highest quality among the hundred arts of cultivation!
In the world of formation mages, most formation mages may recognize Yang Junshan's formation talent, but they may not respect his achievements!
Some array mages even questioned whether the Five Elements Thunder Light Dao Array was his originality, after all, after figuring out the relationship between Yang Junshan, Luoxia Zhenren, and the Purple Wind Sect, these array mages were more willing to admit that the genius formation mage of the Purple Wind Sect hundreds of years ago, and they were more willing to believe that the Five Elements Thunder Light Dao Array had already been successfully deduced by her and not known to the world, and Yang Junshan was at best just an ordinary formation grandmaster who successfully picked peaches along the path of his predecessors.
However, I don't know if they thought that more than eighty percent of the formation masters in the cultivation world were following the old path of their predecessors, strictly speaking, these formation masters were not picking peaches, but the fruit trees where the peaches they picked already had a home.
There are also some formation mages who even admit that Yang Junshan has completed the Five Elements Thunder Light Dao Array that has never been seen in the cultivation world, but they only praise him for making a genius leap from the Five Elements Thunder Light Treasure Array to the Dao Array realm, and they are more willing to give more credit to Luo Xia Zhenren and the Purple Wind Sect where she is from, thinking that Luo Xia Zhenren has already completed the deduction preparation of the Five Elements Thunder Light Array before achieving the Dao Array with the formation background of the Purple Wind Sect.
These two points of view represent the views of the vast majority of formation mages in the cultivation world on Yang Junshan, a new grandmaster, that is, at best, he is just a "young man" who has some talent and has been lucky enough to complete the last leap of the Dao formation by mistake.
They always think that the accumulation of the foundation of the formation path is not fake, it needs to be comprehended little by little, and the cultivation can be quickly improved through the elixir, and the strength can be quickly enhanced through magic weapons and supernatural powers, even if it is longevity, it can be increased through the treasures of heaven and earth, but the cultivation of the formation can only rely on learning, accumulation and comprehension, which is not a little fake or shortcut.
Because of this, although the formation world has high praise for the Five Elements Thunder Light Dao Array, the positioning of Yang Junshan has always been a gifted good luck grandmaster, somewhat with some sarcasm and derogatory meaning, of course, there is no lack of reluctance, but jealousy is always human nature, at least the Red Palace Master of the Burning Heaven Gate does not look down on Yang Junshan.
And yet all of this was overturned overnight today!
The Burning Heaven Gate arrived, and under the witness of more than two digit Dao realm existences, the three foreign aid formation masters launched a wonderful battle formation that was rare in the cultivation world for hundreds of years.
That Grandmaster Yang Junshan Daoren, who had a great controversy in the formation world, defeated the two formation masters recognized in the cultivation world with one enemy and two in front of everyone, and beat the two of them to the ground, and retreated in embarrassment!
Some people may accuse Yang Junshan of relying on the advantages of the formation map, relying on the geographical advantages of the land domain, and relying on conspiracy and calculation, which Yang Junshan cannot deny, but don't forget that what a great grandmaster needs to do is only to "rival" the two grandmasters, but Yang Junshan really "defeated" the two formation grandmasters!
People want face, and the importance of the Dao realm to the face is equivalent to their own dignity!
The originality of the Five Elements Thunder Light Dao Array can be said to be picking peaches and taking the old path, but the Dao Array itself was not successful by Yang Junshan himself, but it was a real existence, and his status as a Formation Dao Grandmaster was unquestionable.
The battle formation with the two Formation Grandmasters can also be singled out for using external forces and conspiracy calculations, but the result of defeating the two Formation Grandmasters to win the battle formation cannot be reversed!
Even if an ordinary formation grandmaster succeeds in one of these two things, he is respected as a great grandmaster, but Yang Junshan has achieved both, this kind of achievement is enough to make the entire cultivation world look sideways, if there are still others who are unwilling to call him "great grandmaster" with a clear conscience, then it is really shameless.
On the second day, the Red Flame Daoist personally visited Yang Junshan, and called Yang Junshan "Junshan Great Grandmaster" on the spot, and after expressing his gratitude to him for the success of the power of the Sect Protector Dao Array, he patted his chest and promised that for the matter of fighting last night, if the sect reproached him, he would carry it with all his might, and it had nothing to do with Yang Junshan.
In fact, at this time, even the other two major factions of the Burning Heaven Gate were unwilling to go to Yang Junshan's trouble, even if some people were worried that Yang Junshan could quietly set up a treasure array in the Earth Domain, they only raised it euphemistically, without the slightest blame or blame.
After Yang Junshan explained that the Three-Talent Spirit Control Array was also a three-talent array, and the secret technique of "Embedding Array" in his hand, all that was left was sounding quite heartfelt admiration.
However, Yang Junshan himself still maintained a minimum of calm, at this time, Zhang Xunyu Daoist of the Heavenly Domain still controlled the power of the entire Dao Array in the hands of three or seven points of the source of the formation, although the Human Domain also lost three points of the power of the source of the formation, the power of the source of the formation in the hands of the Miao Xuan Dao people still reached three percent of the power, in comparison, the power of the two and two points of the source of the formation in Yang Junshan's hands was still in a weak position, not to mention that the total formation map in the hands of the real person of the Red Palace, Yang Junshan would not expect that the last formation source power attracted by the general formation map at the critical moment would fall on Yang Junshan himself。
However, no matter what, when Yang Junshan only had one or six points of array source power at the beginning, he was able to save one point of array source power, and now that the power of the array source in his hand is more abundant, then there is no reason to treat himself badly.
After completing the protection of the low-level monks and the cover of the high-level monks every day, reserve a few points of the power of the formation source in the formation pool for possible Dao-level battles, and leave the remaining two or three points of the power of the formation source for their own use.
This kind of origin power that has been refined layer by layer by the great array itself is an extremely pure heaven and earth vitality, and it is very suitable for Yang Junshan to use it for cultivation, not to mention that the earth domain itself has a relatively sufficient supply of spiritual energy, at least it can reach the level above the West Mountain, which means that Yang Junshan's cultivation efficiency here is at least twice as high as that of the West Mountain.
Of course, there are pros and cons, although the power of the formation source provides Yang Junshan with nearly double the cultivation efficiency, it also shortens Yang Junshan's cultivation time, don't forget, the fight with foreign forces in the Earth Fire Abyss Prison is going on all the time, which means that Yang Junshan must be vigilant enough against the situation in the Earth Fire Abyss Prison.
However, Yang Junshan did not have no countermeasures for this, you must know that Yang Junshan is not the only formation mage in the formation pool of the three-vein treasure array, the discouraged formation master Guan Zhenren, who was suppressed by the Chigong Zhenren and the two formation masters, has returned, and after meeting Yang Junshan, he immediately devoted himself to assisting Yang Junshan in controlling the formation pool.
Yang Junshan smiled dumbly, but he knew the plan in Guan Zhenren's heart, Guan Zhenren was coming for the power of the array source at his disposal.
However, being able to have a formation master as an assistant could indeed save Yang Junshan a lot of energy, allowing him to devote more time to cultivation.
Yang Junshan divided half of the power of the formation source in his hand to supply his sister Yang Junxin to impact the Jugang Realm, and the remaining half of the point was handed over to Guan Zhenren at his disposal, while Yang Junshan himself needed to retain at least one point of the power of the formation source for cultivation, which was the most basic way to distribute the power of the two points of the formation source.
If there was a time when he could divide the power of the three sect formation sources, Yang Junshan would give half a point to the remaining formation masters in the formation pool, and the remaining half point would still be in his pocket.
Although Yang Junshan was already trying to improve his cultivation speed, in fact, it was still difficult to satisfy himself, and with the time of deduction, the battle in the Earth Fire Abyss Hell became more and more intense, and the consumption of the power of the array source was gradually increasing, even Yang Junshan, who was using the Dao Array to such an accurate point, also felt that the power of the array source at his disposal was getting less and less, and it was becoming more and more difficult for him to even maintain the most basic double efficiency.
However, after all, Yang Junshan only controls two or two parts of the entire Dao Array system, don't forget that there are still six or seven percent in the other two domains, since the power of the array source in his hands is stretched thin again, then he can only touch some from the other two domains again.
