Chapter 137 Li Fan Begins His Apprenticeship [First Order Request! ]
Li Fan had a hunch that if an ordinary cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining forced himself to read the contents of the "Map of the Mountain and River Hundred Veins Formation".
Then the surging flow of information will undoubtedly explode his brain.
Even though Li Fan's mental strength is higher than that of ordinary cultivators, his end may not be very good.
He immediately withdrew his spiritual consciousness and solemnly put it into the storage ring.
"How is your study of formation going?" Gong Boyu asked casually.
Li Fan pondered for a moment and said, "I have studied for two years and have made some progress. But I don't know to what extent I have mastered it."
Gong Boyu said: "This is easy!"
Then he took out a small black ball and threw it over: "Just separate a wisp of your consciousness and enter it."
Li Fan looked at the black sphere, which seemed to have starlight flowing on its surface, and then did as he was told.
In an instant, Li Fan seemed to be in a dark tunnel.
My thoughts were like on a roller coaster, gliding rapidly through the tunnel.
One after another, questions and answers about formations came towards him, and Li Fan couldn't help but respond in an instant.
If you know and the answer is correct, the speed of your thoughts will be accelerated again.
If you don't know, or respond incorrectly, the speed at which your thoughts flow will be slowed down.
This feeling of thinking speed being amplified a hundred times is somewhat similar to the awakening of the spirit in the Tianxuan Mirror.
But it’s much more effective.
After a while, Li Fan felt that his thoughts were getting slower and slower, and finally stopped completely.
Banished from the black ball.
Gong Boyu took back the black ball, looked at the barely visible light on it, and looked at Li Fan in disbelief: "You really studied for two years?"
Li Fan's expression remained unchanged: "Indeed."
After a moment of silence, Gong Boyu kindly consoled him, "The art of formations really depends on talent. It's normal that you're progressing slowly. Don't mind it."
Li Fan agreed with it and nodded slightly.
Who would have known that Gong Boyu's words would anger another cultivator present.
"What bullshit is this? The way to form formations is all about diligence! Gong Boyu's talent for formations is high, but do you dare to say that your understanding of formations is better than mine?"
Li Fan looked and saw that the person who was speaking had snow-white hair, but his eyes were full of brilliance, making people dare not look directly at him.
"Brother Zhiliang, don't be so angry. I was just comforting the younger generation and said it casually. Why do you have to be so serious? On Wanxian Island, everyone knows that you, Zhang Zhiliang, are the best in formation?" Gong Boyu was a little helpless.
"The art of formation requires diligence and truth. How can you speak nonsense about it?" Zhang Zhiliang snorted coldly, obviously dissatisfied with Gong Boyu's words.
He turned around and looked at Li Fan seriously: "Boy, you must not lose heart. You know, when I just learned the formation for two years, the test results of the spirit ball recognition were not as good as yours!"
"For the past five hundred years, I have spent almost all my time studying formations, bit by bit, slowly learning and improving. Only then did I have the understanding of formations that I have today. Diligence can make up for lack of talent, especially in the field of formations."
"Although the formations in the world are said to have infinite variations, the commonly used patterns are limited in number and can be mastered by human power."
"If you study hard, never slack off, and never give up, who knows if you won't become a master of formations in a few hundred years?"
Hearing this, Li Fan looked solemn and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior. I will definitely keep it in mind."
After Zhang Zhiliang finished his speech, he gradually calmed down.
He assessed Li Fan and then said slowly, "Although hard work can make up for lack of talent, it is also very important for a master to guide you."
"When I first learned the formation by myself, I was well aware of the difficulty of my exploration."
Zhang Zhiliang pondered for a moment and said, "I see that you are calm and composed, neither arrogant nor impatient. You are quite similar to me in my youth."
"I have also benefited a lot from reading He Zhenghao's volume of 'Map of the Mountain and River Hundred Veins Formation'. I am indebted to you for bringing the remaining volume with me."
“…”
He asked slowly, "I wonder if you would like to stay with me and learn the formation?"
Gong Boyu heard this and quickly reminded, "Why don't you thank Master Zhang!"
Li Fan was also extremely surprised and bowed quickly.
Zhang Zhiliang accepted Li Fan's greeting calmly, and then said: "Let me be frank. I don't want to accept a disciple. So there will be no master-disciple relationship between us."
"I will naturally not teach you the unique formation I created."
"I am only responsible for leading you to truly enter this formation. I will not keep any insights from you."
"I'm so busy with all sorts of trivial matters, I can only take time to guide you."
"I am usually meticulous in my work and very strict with others. If I find you being lazy or slacking off, I will kick you out without mercy."
…
Zhang Zhiliang listed a series of conditions that sounded harsh but were actually reasonable.
Finally, he asked, "In that case, are you willing to follow me and learn the formation?"
Li Fan put away the surprise in his heart and calmed down.
He bowed to Zhang Zhiliang again and said slowly, "Junior is willing."
Zhang Zhiliang looked at Li Fan's performance and stroked his beard with satisfaction.
"Well, hard work doesn't choose any time."
"Learning the formation starts from today!"
As he spoke, Zhang Zhiliang grabbed Li Fan, and in a flash, he disappeared in the council room.
Gong Boyu and other formation masters looked at each other and all smiled bitterly.
…
Li Fan followed Zhang Zhiliang and suddenly arrived at a starry sky.
It was pitch black all around, with countless twinkling stars in the background.
"Do you know what a formation is?" Zhang Zhiliang asked.
Li Fan was about to answer, but after thinking for a while, he finally shook his head: "Disciple, I don't know."
"Formation is a standardized law."
Zhang Zhiliang said word by word.
"Burning, freezing, lightning..."
"These are all natural phenomena that exist in the universe, and what supports their occurrence and operation are the various laws between heaven and earth."
"The law is immutable. Well, except for some special circumstances..."
"When cultivators practice, they often need to observe and comprehend the laws of heaven and earth."
"And the formation is the process of applying the rules in a standardized, mechanized and standardized way."
…
As Zhang Zhiliang was narrating, the gate of the formation slowly opened to Li Fan.
Li Fan was so immersed in it that he didn't notice the time passing.
In the blink of an eye, it has been 20 years since the anchoring.
Sea of clouds.
Zhang Haobo stood in mid-air and looked up.
"Is your dying blow about to come?"
In his memory, in his previous life, a terrible wind disaster would occur soon.
Its power was so strong that it made heaven and earth change color.
More than 200 islands, including Dayu Island, were razed to the ground, and countless mortals died in the sea.
Compared with this terrible storm, the storm he was currently controlling was simply pitifully weak.
but……
He, Zhang Haobo, is a reborn person, a son of destiny, and a person favored by Cong Yunhai.
It's like a snake swallowing an elephant, and then...
Mu Feng!
Ling Wanxian!
Thanks to all the book friends for their tips and monthly tickets. I will sort out the list tomorrow. I have been writing all day today and I am so exhausted. Tears well up in my eyes.
