Chapter 144: Formation
"Alas... I don't cause trouble, why do troubles come to me?"
In the world of cultivating immortals, Zuiyue Pond.
Fang Xing half leaned on the railing, casually throwing fish food and sighing.
"Now Wei Shentong is thinking about me. I will have to do internship in two years... There is a 90% chance that I will go to the battlefield of the secret world. Although the treatment is better than that of a soldier, it is also very dangerous."
"We must improve our strength as soon as possible!"
"In the secret realm, the emphasis is on high burst at a low level... Such warriors have the highest survival rate. If they have strength far beyond their current level, it's almost as if they were walking on flat ground, and there's no danger."
The secret world rejects technological weapons and also suppresses realms.
When a warrior enters it, he will only encounter enemies of the same level as himself, or only one level higher.
If you can master strength far beyond your own level, you can naturally ensure your safety.
'Think about it this way... Gu Jiantong has been suppressing himself and has not broken through to the outer scene. Maybe in addition to integrating himself and wanting to create his own martial arts, he also has this consideration. He is really a clever little ghost... Or maybe his family or even a big force reminded him? '
"That's right. After all, he came from one of the three major educational planets and has a strong background. He won't be forced by Wei Shentong."
"In fact, for some college students, getting in touch with these factions in advance is still an opportunity... These big forces often have a lot of good things, such as the 'Yin and Yang Qi of the Universe', and other strange things that can strengthen the foundation of the golden elixir... If you don't have these, you have to rely on your own martial arts training. In the future, you can only reach the seventh level of the golden body in the Vajra Realm..."
"In fact, the seventh level of the Golden Body is not bad. There is a high probability of breaking through to the Martial Saint. It is not completely impossible to become a Martial God..."
Although there is the yin and yang energy of the universe in the treasure house, the exchange price is very high, very high!
Even for an average genius, it is enough to make him despair.
If you can get something by joining a big force, I believe many people will make this choice.
"But Wei Shentong is different. He only talked about responsibilities, but no treatment. He is just a hooligan... He is clearly bullying me because I am new."
In fact, Wei Shentong just wanted to recruit talents for his faction at the lowest cost.
As for the treatment, we’ll talk about it after we sign the contract.
Unfortunately, it was this attitude that made Fang Xing extremely unhappy and the negotiations broke down.
'I can't break through the martial arts golden elixir in the short term. I need to pay attention to the matter of the Sun's True Gang, but it is not the first priority...'
'The first one should be the Bodhi Saliva, a medicinal elixir that can promote the advancement of the Vajra Prajna power!'
If you go to the battlefield at the level of martial arts Jindan, you will inevitably be sent to a more dangerous secret world! It is far less cost-effective than practicing the Dragon Elephant Vajra Indestructible Magical Power!
Now Fang Xing has already mastered the Dragon Elephant Skill. As long as he can also upgrade the Vajra Prajna power to the master level, it will be a natural thing to complete the Dragon Elephant Vajra Indestructible Magical Power.
'After the Great Vajra Prajna Power was promoted to the master level, the effect of the Bodhi Saliva plummeted...'
'Perhaps... I need a higher level of body building pills, even... a third level one?'
"Zheng Qian has not yet reached any conclusion. Is Ziyuan Fairy City really too low-level?"
As soon as he thought of this, Fang Xing flicked the 'Wind and Snow Sword' in his hand.
With the sound of a sword, he soared into the sky!
A cultivator who has established his foundation can fly in his physical body. Of course, long journeys consume a lot of mana, so he still needs to rely on spiritual tools.
At this time, he managed to fly with the sword, and at the same time tried to achieve the unity of man and sword.
"After all, the Wind and Snow Sword is not a special flying magic weapon..."
"And the way of sword cultivation is even more difficult... Even though I have collected some sword cultivation books from the market, most of them are first- and second-level."
Sword cultivator!
They are a category among immortal cultivators, known for their amazing combat prowess.
It is said that when one reaches the peak stage, he can "break all laws with one sword"! It is not that a cultivator can be called a sword cultivator just because he has a flying sword.
"The foundation of sword cultivation lies in refining a natal flying sword... Once you have mastered the natal flying sword, you can cultivate both your body and soul, and you will make rapid progress in both sword energy cultivation and fighting skills..."
"It is even rumored that what sword cultivators condense is not a golden elixir, but a 'sword elixir'!"
"That is to say... if I want to change my profession to a true sword cultivator, it would be best if I did it before I formed a pill. Otherwise, it would be considered a concurrent cultivator at best..."
Above the nine heavens, the wind is fierce and fierce.
Fang Xing's body was like a dragon, and the Wind and Snow Sword turned into a white light, piercing through one cloud after another.
"This body has a heavenly gold spiritual root. It's a pity not to follow the path of sword cultivation..."
The magic power he is practicing now carries a sharp aura.
If it is transformed into sword energy, it will only be stronger!
The way of sword cultivation is to make the strong stronger! "The way of ancient sword cultivation has four realms - Qi, Gang, Intention, and Momentum!"
The first level of the sword is to 'condense the sword into qi'! As long as you cultivate the sword qi, you have entered the door.
This step is simple, even Fang Xing has done it.
The Gengjin sword energy he now possesses will kill most Qigong practitioners if they just touch it.
Fang Xing's mind moved, and the Wind and Snow Sword made a pleasant sword sound, transforming into an extremely sharp golden sword energy, breaking through the air in front of him, causing his flying speed to increase again.
"The second level of swordsmanship is 'refining the sword into a strong force'!"
This step was like seeing flowers in the fog for him, although he knew clearly that once the sword energy was condensed, the power of the flying sword would increase exponentially, making it almost invincible even in the foundation-building period.
But I just can't get started.
This is probably not a problem of qualifications and talent, but a lack of guidance from the method.
Moreover, he also lacks a true natal flying sword.
"The third level of swordsmanship is to comprehend the sword's will... It feels a bit similar to the will of a warrior, but it's not exactly the same. I should have an advantage, but I haven't even mastered the sword's power yet. This is just a castle in the air."
As for the fourth realm, 'Sword Intent Becomes Momentum', it only exists in legends.
Furthermore, Kendo is constantly evolving.
Nowadays, there are still many branches, such as "Human and Sword Integration", "Sword Qi Thunder Sound", "Sword Refining into Silk", "Sword Heart Clear" and so on...
This is why people today are not necessarily inferior to people in ancient times.
But these are all supplementary means for their respective realms. The major realms of kendo should be Qi, Gang, Yi and Shi.
Only after cultivating sword energy can one perform the sword energy and thunder sound techniques.
Only by condensing the sword energy can the sword be refined into silk and the sword light be divided! Finally, it is necessary to comprehend the "sword heart" so that the sword heart can be clear and the sword intention can be used.
He saw all of this from a book on sword cultivation.
Unfortunately, there is only an introduction to the general realm, but no method of cultivation.
As Fang Xing hurried northwards from the Immortal City, he casually used the Wind and Snow Sword in an attempt to comprehend the power of the 'Sword Qi and Thunder Sound'.
"The so-called sword energy thunder sound should be a blessing for the sword energy, making the sword energy not only condense, but also increase its speed..."
"Once you have mastered it, you will have no rivals in the Qi training stage. There is even a possibility that Qi training sword cultivators will threaten foundation building cultivators..."
'This means that the sword energy of thunder and lightning emitted by the Qigong sword cultivator has the potential to break through the true essence shield of the foundation-building cultivator.'
Fang Xing casually swung out a few Gengjin sword energies.
Although it was very shocking, there was no sound of thunder.
"As expected, I am still missing a sword cultivation method... Perhaps, when I go to Qi Country, I should join the Heavenly Sword Sect? The Heavenly Sword Sect is named after the sword, so there should be many sword cultivators..."
After playing for a while, Fang Xing recalled the Wind and Snow Sword and performed a magic gesture.
The Wind and Snow Sword suddenly transformed into a giant sword about ten feet long and fell at his feet, allowing him to fly with the sword.
"This behavior is actually a waste... The Wind and Snow Sword is not a real flying magic weapon..."
"Strictly speaking, it is only slightly better than the physical flight of a foundation-building cultivator..."
Although Zheng State was adjacent to Qi State, they were still very far apart.
According to Fang Xing's estimation, even if he flew at this speed, it would take nearly six or seven days.
He traveled during the day, and at night he would casually suppress the sword light and find a place to rest and recover his magic power.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed and they arrived at the eastern border of Zheng State.
But it is surrounded by mountains, and the originally scattered houses have disappeared. Occasionally, there are traces of monsters. It is a place of poor mountains and bad waters.
It is impossible for ordinary people to cross the border.
Even large caravans have to follow well-explored safe routes. Even so, Qi-cultivating monks may encounter danger and suffer casualties.
It is precisely because the road is dangerous and communication is inconvenient that many businesses are able to make profits!
However, for the foundation-building cultivators who can fly, crossing mountains and ridges is a piece of cake.
Fang Xing went deep into the mountains, and soon his brows suddenly frowned.
He saw a dark cloud at the end of the sky, with muffled thunder and violent fluctuations of magical power coming from it.
"Array?"
"Are there cultivators fighting? Or are they surrounding and killing monsters?"
He moved a little closer and found that it was a formation, and he immediately became alert.
"Don't mind your own business, just leave..."
Fang Xing immediately controlled the Wind and Snow Sword and tried to avoid this place as far as possible.
At this moment, something strange happened! A huge suction force seemed to emerge from the dark cloud. The dark cloud suddenly expanded and swallowed him whole!
…
A moment ago.
On top of a mountain.
Senior Brother Lian and his fellow apprentices were guarding a pitch-black formation flag.
The flag was pitch black, with a thunder beast on it, breathing out thunder. It had a mighty look and a wild and ancient air.
On other hilltops, there are faint traces of other formation equipment.
The numerous array patterns worked together to form a dark cloud, covering the area within a radius of several miles.
In the center of the dark clouds, there seemed to be a figure with long purple hair, being constantly bombarded by thunder.
He controlled a purple magic weapon that continuously emitted purple divine light, barely resisting the thunder.
However, there was another skinny old man standing on the head of a second-grade high-quality flying snake with fleshy wings, controlling a pitch-black long sword magic weapon and attacking continuously.
Under the combined power of the formation and the old man, the figure with long purple hair was in extreme danger.
"Okay, this time the elder will take action and will definitely be able to take down that bitch!"
When Senior Brother Lian saw this scene, he laughed immediately: "It's worth it that we have been lying in ambush for so long. Ancestor Lian deliberately went to the wild land to lower the vigilance of this bitch... Ziyuan Immortal City will belong to my Lian family and the Ten Thousand Beast Sect by then."
The one being besieged was the Lord of Ziyuan Immortal City—Ziyuan Zhenren! "Well... then our sect will be able to control a large source of wealth, and many disciples will also benefit."
The junior brother who was in the late stage of Qi training smiled, with some inexplicable meaning in his eyes: "Thanks to the fact that the sect was able to accurately grasp the whereabouts of Master Ziyuan... we were able to set up this ambush."
"Haha, our sect wants to dominate Zheng State, why didn't we make any preparations in advance? There must be people from our Ten Thousand Beast Sect in the Purple Kite Immortal City!"
Senior Brother Lian laughed loudly: "The building is about to collapse. Originally just a secret line for transmitting information, I am willing to do more and win over more people..."
"I see... Huh? There's a cultivator approaching... It's a foundation-building cultivator!"
The junior brother took out a formation plate and looked at a light spot that was getting closer and closer, his expression changed.
"Humph, my Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is doing things, and those who know what's best will get out of here... If a mere Foundation Establishment dares to enter my sect's 'Ancient Thunder Thousand Layer Formation', I'll just send him to death!"
The monk named Lian pointed with one finger and kept chanting spells.
Above the array plate, the spot of light continued to grow larger, revealing a young monk in silver clothes and riding a sword. He looked truly unrestrained and was preparing to go around it from a distance.
"It's this person?!"
Senior Brother Lian laughed out loud, "It's really easy to get it... The Ancient Thunder Thousand Layer Formation has the ability to expand. We will immediately extend the range of the formation and bring it to the center of the formation... With the power of this quasi-third-level formation, it will be easy to suppress the foundation-building cultivator... When the time comes, give me any opportunity!"
He had already regarded Fang Xing's foundation-building opportunity as his own, and at this moment he made the decision without hesitation.
Even if the other party has already used up the opportunity to build his foundation, the storage bag and spiritual weapon of a foundation-building cultivator are enough to make up for it.
"This...isn't it? We shouldn't make things complicated for the things we are doing."
The junior brother was a little hesitant.
"This time, I will be the one taking charge. Just do it for me. I will take responsibility for anything that comes up."
Senior Brother Lian took out a token and injected magic power into it.
In the corner of the Ancient Thunder Thousand Layer Formation, a dark cloud suddenly swelled up and engulfed Fang Xing's figure...
"What's going on?"
When the disciples from other directions saw this scene, they couldn't help but cast their eyes over: "So Senior Brother Lian is going to hunt for food... But a Foundation Establishment can suppress it with a flip of his palm."
…
"Um?"
When Fang Xing's eyes lit up, he found himself on top of a small hill with thousands of thunders above his head.
On the opposite side, there are two very familiar people.
"Haha, Mr. Fang, you finally fell into my hands. Let's see who will come to save you this time..."
Senior Brother Lian laughed out loud, ready to make some sarcastic remarks and vent his pride.
Being able to dominate the life of a foundation-building cultivator with his Qi training did make him very happy.
Swish! Before he finished speaking, the Wind and Snow Sword turned into a beam of white light and came to kill him.
Swish!
A lightning net emerged, blocking all the sword energy of the Wind and Snow Sword.
"Now that you've fallen into the formation, do you still want to turn the tables?"
Senior Brother Lian’s smile widened even more.
Facing a foundation-building cultivator, he was naturally fully prepared.
With a quasi-third-level formation protecting it, even if the majority of the power of this formation is with Master Ziyuan, it is not something that a mere early stage foundation-building cultivator can...
Whoosh! He suddenly saw a flash of sword light in his eyes.
The sword light was cold and shimmering with golden light. It shook the lightning net and cut out a gap with great difficulty.
Then...
It's just a ray of light.
Senior Brother Lian’s head melted instantly and his body fell down.
The face of the junior fellow student next to him was filled with fear. Before he could react, his head also disappeared...
"I haven't even thought of looking for you yet, and you dare to come to my door?"
Fang Xing smiled calmly, and before the other disciples could roar, he pointed.
Swoosh! The Snow Wind Sword turned into a beam of white light and chopped heavily on the formation flag on the top of the mountain! Boom!
The entire Ancient Thunder Thousand Layers Formation suddenly trembled! (End of this chapter)
