When Uncle Jiu heard this, he felt terrible.

"What do you mean it's just a basic formation inheritance? You know, it's a formation."

In the Whirlpool Sea, the foundation-building families do not have the inheritance of alchemy. Because this kind of inheritance often exists in the form of jade slips, some confidentiality measures will be taken. Some professions often require a lot of materials to practice. If too many people compete with you for these opportunities to practice, then the opportunities for your people to practice will be reduced, resulting in slow progress. Therefore, these major forces often keep these production-type inheritances very strictly confidential.

A formation inheritance and a basic formation arrangement method are very valuable, probably not lower than the price of [Spirit Transformation Pill].

According to what Lu Ping had described, the array inheritance was worth at least five foundation-building pills. What made Uncle Jiu speechless was why he had set the value of half a [Spiritual Transformation Fruit] when he gave the jade slip to Lu Ping. He really misjudged it.

What puzzled Uncle Jiu was why the original owner of the cave would leave such a precious jade slip of array inheritance in the cave? According to Uncle Jiu's experience in exploring the cave, the owner of the cave must have something urgent to do, so he took the more valuable things with him. Logically, it was unnecessary for him to leave the array inheritance behind. Generally, the jade slips left behind would be some that were not easy to pass on, such as "Eating Wind and Drinking Dew", which was a relatively useless skill. In addition, there was no need to carry the skills that one had learned by oneself.

But why didn't he carry this formation inheritance with him?

Lu Ping and Uncle Jiu finally came to the conclusion that unless the original owner of the cave didn't know what was inside, he thought it was just a useless inheritance. Coming to a conclusion, Uncle Jiu naturally sighed and envied Lu Ping's luck.

Lu Ping said to Uncle Jiu, "Don't be envious. To practice and set up this formation, you need some precious materials. Of course, you can also use some ordinary materials, or save materials to set it up, but Lu Ping doesn't have these materials."

"I am worried too."

Uncle Jiu said with a little pride, "See. I told you that you would know the feeling of being short of spiritual stones sooner or later, and it hasn't been long since I realized it."

"Uncle Jiu, please stop making fun of me. Give me some advice. Which one should I choose first, cultivation or formation?"

"For matters like this, you usually have to make your own decisions. My suggestion is to improve your cultivation. When your cultivation improves, it will be easier for you to earn some spirit stones to buy materials to set up the formation. If your cultivation is not enough, what's the use even if you have superb formation skills?"

"As your cultivation improves, and even when you have established your foundation and gained spiritual awareness, the need for setting up formations will decrease, and the difficulty will also be reduced."

"If it's really hard to decide, I'll take you to see my friend. He's good at refining pills but can't make any progress in cultivation. Cultivation is the foundation."

When Lu Ping heard this, he realized that what Uncle Jiu said made sense.

"What kind of person is that Qing Xiu?"

Uncle Jiu said casually, "You will know when you see him."

Lu Ping: In the evening, the boat started moving again. During this time, the Chiyan family naturally explained to everyone that the encounter with the thunder dragon was just an accidental encounter. This casually made-up reason could not convince the crowd as some excuses, but it was obvious that many late-stage Qi training cultivators present did not dare to complain, whether because of the reputation of the Lu family or the Chiyan family. As for those below the middle stage of Qi training, they did not even want to explain, and there were no casualties. Lu Ping was not surprised that there were no complaints. After all, the foundation-building stage has divine consciousness and can hear.

Now Lu Ping was wondering about another thing, why didn't the Thunder Dragon run away? Logically speaking, this Thunder Dragon had attacked everywhere before, and there were Foundation Establishment cultivators who could have killed him, but he still ran away.

Out of curiosity, I asked, "Uncle Jiu, why didn't the Thunder Dragon run away?"

When he asked this question, Uncle Jiu looked a little embarrassed.

Then he straightened his expression and said, "The patriarch of the family naturally has some tricks up his sleeve."

"Oh." Although Lu Ping was doubtful, after all, the environmental changes were so great that it was difficult to form a formation, so how could the means be extraordinary? However, it seemed that it was a family secret, and Uncle Jiu should not know it either. Lu Ping just asked casually. As for the pulse-cutting mentioned by other cultivators, Lu Ping just wrote it down and would check it later.

Uncle Jiu had traveled far and wide in his early years and was well-informed and fond of reading. Naturally, he knew the cause of the strange phenomenon in the heaven and earth at that time. It was the abnormality caused by the cutting off of the water veins, and this skill belonged to the acupoint-pressing and pulse-cutting skills among the miscellaneous arts. However, it was not easy to say this to Lu Ping as it would hurt the face of the patriarch. After all, people who could press acupoints and cut pulses did not have a good reputation in the world of immortal cultivation.

In the world of immortal cultivation, the ability of acupuncture and pulse cutting is often used to rob caves and tombs. Although it is not as famous as the notorious demon cultivators, it is still despised. In the world of immortal cultivation, the power of the earth veins is endless and endless. The caves and secret realms built by relying on the power of the earth veins can often exist for a very long time. Because of this, some cultivators specialize in the art of cutting off the earth veins to cut off the power of the earth veins, so that some relics that should not appear in the world at this time can appear in the world.

These secret realms of relics often have owners. The places where secret realms and relics can be built are often the nodes where the power of the earth veins accumulates. These nodes are not necessarily suitable for building forces. Moreover, the appearance of relics in the world will cause great commotion. The scene will be the same as the previous sea area. Wouldn't it be a suffering to put them next to your own home? Therefore, most of the relics in the world of immortal cultivation are not within the scope of construction forces.

This situation gives some people an opportunity. They will cut off the earth veins in advance, allowing the ruins to appear in advance and then plunder them. When the descendants of the builders come, the buildings will be empty.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Moreover, the secret realm of the ruins often contains a large number of precious spiritual medicines. Opening it will cause a large amount of spiritual energy inside to be lost, and the production and growth rate of the spiritual medicines will be slowed down.

So after the exploration, the ruins will be sealed again. This behavior will change the density of spiritual energy again and restore it to a normal level. But the pulse cutter is often afraid of the victim coming to find him. Besides, it will cost a lot of spiritual stones to seal the ruins again. How can the pulse cutter who came for the spiritual stones do such a thing?

Therefore, people who are proficient in acupoint pressing and pulse cutting often have a bad reputation. However, in today's vortex sea, secret realms are rare, and the few that are there are also under strict surveillance. Moreover, the skill of pulse cutting can also be used to comb the earth veins, move souls and guide the meridians, so not everyone wants to punish them.

Uncle Jiu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Ping did not pursue the matter further. After thinking about it, he shook his head and returned to his room to rest. There were too many people on the ship, so it was not suitable for practicing. It would take the ship three days to reach the destination.

After three days of sailing, Lu Ping and Uncle Jiu finally arrived at their destination, Taihang Island. During this time, Lu Ping kept asking about some matters related to going out.

Taihang Island gets its name from the Taihang Market on it.
