Chapter 249: Completely different, the difference between cloud and mud
In less than half a stick of incense, Lu Feng had finished inscribing five pieces of jade. He waited for a few breaths, and after Qian Xin finished inscribing the fifth piece of jade in his hand, he said, "How many of these lines have you remembered?"
Qian Xin calmed down the spiritual energy in his body, closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, and replied: "These lines have no rules, and I can't tell what kind of formations they are. I...I can only remember less than 30%."
Lu Feng sighed, took out a piece of Yunzhi leaf and drank it with dry core to restore his spiritual energy.
"continue."
This time, the sword in Lu Feng's hand was obviously a bit faster. Fortunately, Qian Xin had gone through the experience and could barely keep up. When half of the incense was burning, five more pieces of jade were inscribed.
Gan Xin took a breath and asked, "What should we do next?"
"Have you memorized all the patterns?" Lu Feng did not answer Qian Xin and continued to ask this question.
"Uh?" Qian Xin was stunned, "Isn't ten pieces of jade enough?"
"Remember?"
Qian Xin scratched his head and blushed, like a child who had done something wrong, "I thought this was the last group, so I didn't remember much. I am only 20 to 30% more familiar than before."
Lu Feng shook his head and said: "Continue, when you have memorized everything, when will you stop."
"What's the use of carving so many messy jade stones?" Qian Xin muttered in confusion, feeling aggrieved.
"You will understand when you remember everything," Lu Feng said and raised the sword in his hand again.
Half an hour later, Qian Xin's hand holding the carving knife began to feel numb. The constant consumption and recovery of spiritual energy made her physically weak, but the desire to win in her heart made her persevere. Finally, on the twentieth After carving the jade stone, she finally remembered all the confusing lines.
"Didn't you say that you will understand it after you memorize it all? Why can't I still see the use of these jade stones?" Qian Xin asked with a frown.
Lu Feng raised his sword and pointed at several pieces of jade, and said: "You divide these jade stones into four groups, every five pieces into a group, and bridge the edge lines to understand."
Qian Xin doubtfully moved the jade that had been engraved, looking for the edge lines. After breaking it down, he found that although the lines in the twenty pieces of jade were messy, they could be connected at the edges.
With five pieces as a group, the edges are close to each other, and the lines are gradually connected. The five small jade stones are united in one place and become a whole. The lines are no longer messy, and they are as precise as a picture.
The dry core is combined with jade. From the five pieces of jade as a whole, we can see the shadows of these three groups of patterns, but the lines seem to be a bit thick. To be precise, there seems to be overlap. Recalling the situation when the inscription was made, the dry core dare not He looked at the lines in front of him with confidence, "This...is it engraved twice?"
The hand holding the jade couldn't help but break into a cold sweat, "Is this really engraved by me?"
Qian Xin's theoretical knowledge on formations is not weak, and he knows what the overlapping lines mean. This is not only a simple strengthening of the formations, but also a qualitative improvement of the formations. If you don't know the inscription technique in ordinary times, , no matter what kind of formation pattern she was asked to accurately overlap and carve twice, she couldn't carve it out even if she was given ten chances, but now she succeeded in carving it without knowing it.
Although Sikong Yan was a little surprised when he saw the combined formation patterns, he did not think that doing so could change the formation. He laughed and said: "You have been tinkering for so long just to engrave these groups of formation patterns? Don't think it's such a bluff. How many jade stones can you trap me in?"
Lu Feng sighed and smiled: "The theory is a bit off."
"You..." Sikong Yan glared at Lu Feng angrily.
After assembling the first three groups of jade stones, Dry Core was already shocked. He stretched out his hand to explore the remaining five jade stones. The three formation patterns required for the formation were already there. What exactly was engraved on this last group of jade stones?
"Huh?" Qian Xin looked at the combined patterns in confusion, "Is this...the spirit gathering pattern?"
What do you need to do to gather spirit patterns when setting up a trap formation?
Are you afraid that Sikong Yan doesn't have enough spiritual energy to break through the formation and give her a chance to recover?
Qianxin's face was full of confusion.
"Place it in a "pin" shape, place the jade stone engraved with the spirit gathering pattern in the center, and start infusing the spirit from it," Lu Feng said.
"What?" Qian Xin thought that he had heard wrongly. This method of injecting spirits would not be able to fill all the jade stones with spirits.
It wasn't until Lu Feng spoke again that the dry core was confirmed and placed according to his instructions to start injecting spirits.
"That's all, just be dissatisfied if you are not satisfied with the spirit injection. With the double formation pattern, it should not be easy for Sikong Yan to break through it," Qian Xin completed the spirit injection with a give-and-take attitude, although each piece of jade contained only seven points of spiritual energy. Full, which weakens the power of the formation to a certain extent, but also because of this, the lines between the jade stones are much less repulsive.
After nearly half an hour, Qian Xin finally completed the layout of the formation. As the formation chanted, the pile of jade had disappeared, replaced by spiritual energy barriers several meters wide on three sides, forming a huge triangular prism. .
Although the combined formation has the potential of adding up several formations, its resistance to concealment also makes it unpopular in the actual application of the formation. With such obvious traces of the formation, anyone who is not a fool will not be trapped by the formation, so , combined formations are generally used in fighting formations.
"After working on it for a long time, it's still the same formation as before? It seems like your mentor is just like that," Sikong Yan said disdainfully: "I was dissatisfied with the soul injection before, but this time it is still the same. Do you think there are too many carving knives, or do you think there are too many? How many pieces of jade can stop me?"
"The carving knife is right in front of you, it depends on whether you have the ability to take it away," Lu Feng suggested with a smile: "Although this formation has not reached the level of a magic formation, it is difficult to get out of it with your strength. I advise you to take your mentor Please come, maybe there will be a 10 to 20% chance."
"Don't be so self-righteous. What's the problem with a formation that's not even full of soul energy?" Sikong Yan sneered and stepped into the formation.
Su Qing'er felt a little worried after hearing Lu Feng's words. She knew that Lu Feng's words were not self-righteous at all, but a sincere reminder. When she saw Sikong Yan stepping into the formation without any care, she realized something was wrong and hurriedly He ran out of the formation hall to find his instructor.
Sikong Yan, who stepped into the formation, still had a trace of confidence on her face. As before, she easily found a place where the spiritual energy was not fully injected, gathered her spiritual energy and took a shot there.
Qian Xin's heart tightened and he turned his head away, not wanting to see the formation in pieces.
All the formation masters present also saw that Sikong Yan had found the weak point of the formation, and it would definitely break it with one strike. They all thought about how Lu Feng would end up. In such an outcome, his mentor's face and prestige would be damaged. No more.
The spiritual energy mass gathered by Sikong Yan finally accurately landed on the weak point of the formation, but the formation that everyone expected to break did not appear, and not even the slightest movement was made.
"Look," Jun Ziyi tugged Gan Xin's arm excitedly, "She missed it, the formation hasn't been broken yet."
Qian Xin was stunned for a moment and looked at the formation intently. With Sikong Yan's strength, how could he hit the enemy in the air?
There must be a mystery in it.
The smile on Sikong Yan's face faded and became more solemn. Although the blow just now was not her full strength, it still had 70% strength, but the result was like hitting a huge ball of cotton. Not only did it fail to break the formation Instead, part of his own spiritual energy was sucked away.
With the intuition developed through years of experience in formations, Sikong Yan instantly realized that the formation in front of her was completely different from the one she had broken before.
After part of the spiritual energy was sucked away, Sikong Yan recovered immediately, but found that the spiritual energy in the array was horribly thin, and there was no amount for her to absorb and recover.
"What's going on?" Sikong Yan's face showed shock, recalling the formation patterns engraved on the dry core before, "Is it the spirit-expelling array? But isn't the spirit-expelling pattern expelling the spiritual energy I shot out? How can it be connected? The spiritual energy within the formation has also been expelled?"
Sikong Yan had a bad premonition in her heart, and her intuition told her that she could not stay in this formation for a long time. She immediately took out a spirit recovery pill and swallowed it. While recovering her spiritual energy, she gathered another spiritual energy ball, and was about to bombard the weak point. She was surprised to find that the jade stone that had not been fully infused with spirit was now completely infused with the spirit energy she blasted out.
"How is this possible?" Sikong Yan couldn't understand the phenomenon in front of her, and a sense of frustration arose spontaneously.
"Calm down, understand carefully, and don't get confused," a voice from outside the formation shouted to Sikong Yan.
Lu Feng followed the sound and saw a figure walking not far away, followed closely by Su Qing'er.
"Teacher Fang," Lu Feng greeted him with the same teacher's etiquette. The person who came was none other than Teacher Fang Xinping, whom he had met once in the Dongyuan Mountains. But what he didn't expect was that she was not only in the same group as Bai Bing and Bai Xue, but she was also in the same group as Bai Bing and Bai Xue. Judging from the situation, it seems that he is still the mentor of Su Qing'er and Sikong Yan?
Sikong Yan was in the formation, and she woke up when she heard the voice coming from outside the formation. Although she was a little reluctant to ask for help from her instructor, she also knew that she would never be able to get out of this formation by herself.
"Teacher Fang, what should I do?" Sikong Yan shouted loudly.
Fang Xinping took an overview of the formation and said: "Combine the formation together, don't combine it and break it. How come you can't remember anything I teach you when it's time to use it?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Sikong Yan's face, and she apologized: "Teacher, I was wrong. I will apologize to you after I break this formation."
"This formation is very delicately arranged, which is rare in a combined formation." As an formation master, Fang Xinping agreed with the formation laid out by Qian Xin, but as Sikong Yan's mentor, she had to give her guidance on how to use it. It breaks open.
"Although those jade stones that are not fully infused with spirit are flaws in this formation, the existence of the spirit gathering array has the effect of turning decay into magic. You cannot break through those jade stones with your strength. You need to break them apart to make them lose sight of one thing. .”
Sikong Yan began to think after listening to Fang Xinping's words, and muttered the words: "Divide and destroy, focus on one and miss the other", and suddenly walked towards another direction that was not filled with spiritual energy.
Qian Xin asked nervously: "Instructor Lu, what does that woman mean when she talks about dividing and breaking, focusing on one and not the other? Will this formation really be broken by Sikong Yan?"
Lu Feng said calmly: "Don't worry, she can't break it. The method described by instructor Fang Xinping is indeed the most direct way to break this formation. If Sikong Yan was in his heyday, he might still have a few chances, but she has already been absorbed a lot. As the spiritual energy waxes and wanes, the power of this formation has increased."
Sikong Yan focused on searching for the weak points of each of the small formations, and the spiritual energy group in his hand also condensed from one to four. These four spiritual energy groups almost condensed the spiritual energy of the whole body, and success or failure depended on this.
