Chapter 251: Completed in one go, formation engraving
"Old doctor, what should we do then?" asked Magu.
The old doctor thought for a while, and finally said: "Let's turn around, return to Yunzhou, and choose another route."
If it were just him and Lu Qing, the old doctor might choose to abandon the car.
After all, neither the master nor the disciple are ordinary warriors. If they use their own abilities to travel, they can travel much faster than the speed of a carriage.
But considering the existence of Xiaoyan and Wei Zian, this is not possible.
So the only thing we can do is go back and find another way.
"Okay, I understand."
Magu nodded and prepared to lift the carriage and turn it around.
"Master, don't rush back. Let me try to see if there is any solution."
At this time, Lu Qing suddenly said.
"A Qing, do you have a solution?" The old doctor looked over in surprise.
"I just have a clue. Let's find a place nearby and stay for a day to see if my method works.
If it works, then whether we move forward or return to find another way, perhaps our speed can be greatly increased."
Lu Qing didn't say everything.
However, the old doctor understood his disciple's personality and knew that since he said so, he was obviously quite confident.
He didn't hesitate and nodded, "Okay, in that case, let's do as you say. We'll stay here for a day."
It just so happens that it is already afternoon and it will only take a little over an hour before it gets dark.
They rested early today.
So Lu Qing and his men carried the carriage out of the stone pit, walked back, and after exiting that section of the mountain road, they found a relatively spacious place nearby and set up camp.
Lu Qing asked Ma Gu to dismantle the carriage, then walked around it, examining it and thinking slowly.
"A Qing, what solution have you come up with?" asked the old doctor.
"Master, I was thinking that if we could engrave a few simple formations on the carriage, maybe we wouldn't have to worry about the uneven ground. " Lu Qing replied.
"Engraving formation?" The old doctor was really surprised this time, "Ah Qing, can you do it?"
"I'm not sure yet. Let me think about it first." Lu Qing said uncertainly.
As for the master and disciple Ma Gu and Wei Zian, they were already confused after hearing what they heard.
Formation, Lu Qing also understands such mysterious things?
Moreover, isn’t this the magical method that only appears in those strange stories?
Especially Wei Zian, he suddenly remembered what Lu Qing and the old doctor had discussed in the carriage before, about the breathing method and the air-eating method.
Could it be that this is also the legendary method used by the immortals?
Lu Qing didn't notice the expressions of Ma Gu and the others. He continued to walk around the carriage and observe carefully.
He was able to think of engraving a formation on the carriage, not only because Wei Zian's words enlightened him.
He also saw with his own eyes that Liuyun Sect had set up two large formations, and both of them were able to be used, which made him wake up.
As the world changes and spiritual energy recovers, those immortal cultivation methods that were once unusable can actually gradually regain some of their power.
In that case, he might as well try out some of his ideas.
After walking around the carriage for a while and imprinting all the frame details of the carriage in his mind, Lu Qing began to sit cross-legged.
"Master, Master Ma, I need to do some calculations first. I'm afraid I won't have time to prepare dinner. Please just work harder."
"It's okay, you just go about your business, I'll make dinner." Magu said quickly.
Although his cooking skills are a bit rough, it is still eatable.
These days, when Lu Qing is sometimes busy with other things, it is basically Ma Gu who is responsible for cooking.
Lu Qing nodded, then closed his eyes, immersed his mind in the acupoint between his eyebrows, and entered a state of meditation.
After entering into meditation, Lu Qing's mind became peaceful and he began to think.
First of all, he was thinking about what kind of formation should be engraved on the carriage.
With two great immortal cultivation inheritances, Lu Qing knew quite a few formations, one could even say he knew a lot.
The Shenfu Sect is fine. This line of inheritance adheres to the idea of taking the heavens, the earth and all things as teachers. The formation is arranged according to local conditions, without any restrictions and can be done at will.
There are not many specific formations left, and they are all large formations with great power that can only be set up relying on the power of heaven and earth.
Lu Qing is unable to arrange it now.
But the inheritance obtained from the Lihuo Ding is different.
The Lihuo Sect has a profound and unique attainment in the way of fire, and is also very good at refining weapons and pills.
When it comes to refining weapons, formations are essential.
After all, no matter what kind of magic weapon or artifact it is, it must be engraved with a magic array in order to have a powerful power beyond the material itself.
Therefore, the formations passed down by the Lihuo Sect can be said to be very rich.
Everything from the most basic entry-level magic array to the top-grade magic array that can be used to refine spiritual weapons are recorded.
With Lu Qing's current ability, he doesn't need to think about those advanced formations.
He couldn't even set up a medium-level formation.
So he finally set his sights on the most basic magic arrays in the inheritance.
After selecting from the inheritance with his mind, Lu Qing finally chose three primary formations.
[Light and Spiritual Array], [Fresh Breeze Array], [Solidifying Array].
Of these three formations, the first two, as the name suggests, are meant to make the carriage lighter. As for the last one, the [Solidification Formation], Lu Qing uses it to reinforce the carriage.
As the carriage becomes lighter, its speed will increase accordingly, and the carriage will naturally have to be stronger.
Otherwise, if you encounter any special accident while driving at high speed and the car overturns, it will be a lot of fun.
After choosing the formations, Lu Qing began to activate his supernatural powers directly, entered a state of cultivation, and began to comprehend those formations.
In a state of near enlightenment, Lu Qing soon completely comprehended those formations.
At this moment, the carriage frame he had memorized earlier emerged in his mind, and he then figured out how to engrave the formation on it.
Not long after, he worked out the most perfect seal carving plan, confirmed it again and again, and found that there was indeed no mistake. Then he came out of the cultivation state and opened his eyes.
Outside, it was almost dark.
The master and his companions were gathered in front of a fire, eating.
"Ah Qing is awake? Come, come and eat."
The old doctor was the first to discover that Lu Qing had woken up.
"Thanks."
Lu Qing walked over and took the baked naan that Ma Gu handed over.
"How is it? Do you have any idea?" asked the old doctor.
"It has been basically calculated. We can start engraving the formation tomorrow morning." Lu Qing nodded.
Hearing what he said, Ma Gu and Wei Zian, the master and disciple, immediately became extremely excited.
I didn't expect that Lu Qing actually knew the formation methods mentioned in the storybook.
They really can't wait to see it.
Even the old doctor was looking forward to it.
He was actually very curious about how Lu Qing would engrave the formation.
Although he had seen a real formation in Liuyun Town before, it was too mysterious. He was confused and could not see through the mystery at all.
Being able to see Lu Qing engraving the formation with his own eyes, perhaps he would be able to comprehend one or two of the mysteries behind it.
With such excitement, Magu and his friends almost couldn't sleep well that night.
Wei Zi'an was so confused about this that he had a very strange dream. In the dream, he became a fairy who could call the wind and rain. He could fly to the sky with a wave of his hand. It was magical.
So much so that when Lu Qing woke up early in the morning, he was followed by two pairs of eyes. No matter what he did, those eyes were stuck on him.
Especially when eating breakfast, the gazes of Ma Gu and Wei Zian were extremely passionate and full of passion, which made Lu Qing quite helpless.
"Okay, wait until I finish this bowl of porridge and then I'll start engraving the formation, okay?" Lu Qing sighed.
"It's okay, it's okay. Eat first." Master Magu and his disciple said in unison.
But the gaze is still burning.
Lu Qing sighed again, and finished the porridge in the bowl in a few mouthfuls. Then he stood up and walked towards the carriage.
Ma Gu and Wei Zian followed closely behind, their curious looks made the old doctor laugh.
Coming to the carriage, Lu Qing took out a carving knife and a bottle of vermilion ink.
The most basic formation does not have high requirements for materials, all it needs is spiritual ink.
And this bottle of vermilion ink was what Lu Qing had configured before.
Speaking of which, the materials for making spiritual ink were collected by Wei Shanhai at his request.
Originally, I wanted to use it in the medicinal field in the courtyard halfway up the mountain, but I didn't expect that my master suddenly decided to go to Zhongzhou, so this spiritual ink was temporarily unused.
I don’t know what happened to the thousand-year-old ginseng in the medicinal field in the courtyard halfway up the mountain.
Looking at the bottle of spiritual ink, an idea suddenly came to Lu Qing's mind.
At first, he wanted to set up a small spirit gathering formation in the medicinal field in the courtyard halfway up the mountain to nourish the medicinal field.
As a result, the formation has not been set up yet and they are not at home.
I'm afraid that thousand-year-old ginseng will no longer be willing to stay in the medicine field obediently.
Shaking his head gently to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, Lu Qing opened the ink bottle and picked up the carving knife.
Look at the carriage, concentrate and calm down, wait until your mind has completely calmed down.
Immediately, a surge of spiritual power surged through his body, and the carving knife in his hand suddenly moved. He lightly tapped the ink bottle, dipped it in the spiritual ink, and began to carve on the body of the carriage.
With yesterday's observations and the calculations made with his spiritual power, Lu Qing had already memorized all the structures of the carriage.
Therefore, engraving the formation was also quite fast.
Ma Gu and Wei Zian's eyes widened the moment Lu Qing moved.
Lu Qing was seen holding the carving knife in his hand, drawing strange arcs, and carving mysterious runes on the carriage.
What’s even more magical is that every time a rune is engraved, a light will first light up above the rune and then slowly disappear into the car body.
The two had never seen such a strange sight before, and as they watched, not only their eyes but also their mouths slowly opened wider.
Only the old doctor had a solemn expression, with the power of his soul gently surging in the acupoint between his eyebrows, and he was feeling the meaning of Lu Qing's seal carving formation.
It took Lu Qing more than an hour to carve the seal.
When he finished engraving the last formation rune and connected the last stroke to the first rune, the whole carriage suddenly glowed with light. Mysterious red silk runes appeared in the air and finally sank into the body of the carriage.
When the light completely disappeared, the carriage returned to its original appearance. Apart from some new patterns on the body of the carriage, there seemed to be no other changes.
But Magu and others could feel that compared to before, there was obviously a strange aura in the carriage, and it became a lot more mysterious.
"Brother Lu Qing, is it done now?" Magu asked.
"Well, I have engraved a total of three formations on the carriage. If nothing goes wrong, it should allow us to reach Zhongzhou as soon as possible."
Lu Qing nodded.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to engrave more formations, but he can’t.
Although this carriage was built by the Wei family at great expense and used a lot of precious materials.
But they are just ordinary people after all, unable to withstand too much power of the magic circle.
Moreover, he didn't have much spiritual ink left, so he needed to save some for emergencies.
Feeling the power of the formation floating faintly on the carriage, Lu Qing also felt quite satisfied.
Although he had practiced it before, this was actually his first time to truly engrave a formation.
I didn't expect it to be completed so perfectly.
The inheritance of the Shenfu Sect is indeed powerful.
Lu Qing was amazed.
Yes, this time he was able to engrave three formations in a row perfectly without making any mistakes.
It's not that he is extremely lucky or has a good character.
And all this is because he carries the soul talisman.
The engraving of the formation is not just about carving out the formation runes.
In the process of seal carving, it is also necessary to use the soul as a guide and the spiritual ink as a guide to form a connection between each rune, and finally connect the beginning and the end to form a formation, which can attract the mysterious power between heaven and earth and transform it into the power of the formation.
And when Lu Qing was engraving the magic circle, he felt it.
Through the soul talisman, he has some kind of miraculous control over the formation runes he carved.
It was as if the soul talisman was the master, allowing him to manipulate the runes at will and arrange them at will.
“The Soul Talisman is indeed the foundation of rune cultivation. Its control and blessing effects on runes and talismans are even stronger than I imagined.
I still don't know enough about it." Lu Qing suddenly realized something.
But it's not his fault.
After all, the inheritance of the Divine Talisman Sect that he obtained was just left behind by the mysterious being who created the Jade Cave.
It is not all the inheritance of the Shenfu Sect.
Apart from the method of practicing runes, there is not much information about other things.
It is far less rich and complete than the inheritance left on the Lihuo Ding.
Therefore, as for the soul talisman, in addition to the practice method, Lu Qing needs to slowly comprehend and explore its specific power by himself.
"Yes, this is not bad now."
Lu Qing did not feel any regret, but accepted it with pleasure.
Sometimes, the path of spiritual practice needs a little surprise to make it more fun.
"Brother Lu Qing, now that the formation has been engraved, why don't we try it now?"
At this time, Ma Gu looked at Lu Qingdao expectantly.
Lu Qing pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, although the formation has been successfully engraved, we still need to test it to know the specific effect."
"Then I am the one who is harnessing the car now!"
When Ma Gu heard this, he immediately ran to get the horse.
