Formation: "Cloud and Mist Formation", "Eastern Green Dragon Formation". 99% of the ten realms of transcendence and sainthood; 13% of the "Northern Xuanwu Formation" of the second realm of rough skin.
Looking at the leafy bitter bamboo, Jiang Xuan could not help but exhale with satisfaction.
I remember that when Bitter Bamboo first appeared, there was only one solitary bamboo pole.
Now ten months have passed, and it finally looks a bit like normal bamboo.
Reaching out to pluck the bamboo leaves, Jiang Xuan then sat cross-legged on the bluestone.
Everything is ready, and the east wind will come.
With a thought, the 50 packets of double ingredients waiting to be collected were turned into fertilizer, which was then poured onto the "Cloud and Mist Formation" by Jiang Xuan, which was the first formation he learned.
The next moment, endless enlightenment arose in Jiang Xuan's heart.
"The formation technique borrows the power of heaven and earth."
"What is heaven and earth?"
"The sun, moon, stars, wind, rain, thunder and lightning, mountains, rivers, lakes, vegetation, and living creatures are all heaven and earth."
"The "Cloud and Mist Array" that was deployed before only borrowed the power of the mountains and earth veins, not even the power of the water veins, let alone the sun, moon, stars, vegetation and creatures?"
"If we could borrow the power of water veins, Gungun and Qianqiu wouldn't be able to follow the stream up the mountain."
Various perceptions kept rising in his heart. After a long time, the perceptions faded, and Jiang Xuan once again set his sights on the bitter bamboo.
As he expected, "Cloud and Mist Formation" was still stuck at 99%, but Jiang Xuan was already confident of improving it.
He reached out and took out thirty-six pieces of spiritual jade, carved formation runes on them, and then, using the power of the formation, began to appear in every corner of Zhushan.
Either he hid the spiritual jade in a tree hole, or buried it deep in the ground, or placed it in a river. The last piece was stuffed into the mouth of a hibernating bamboo leaf by Jiang Xuan.
The next moment, wisps of clouds and mist rose from the mountain stream, lingering on the bamboo mountain.
The clouds and mist that rose this time seemed more spiritual than the clouds and mist that rose after the "Cloud and Mist Array" was deployed before.
They dispersed into mist for a while and covered Zhushan Mountain, and then gathered into clouds and formed snake-like shapes that circled the mountainside of Zhushan Mountain.
Sometimes the clouds and mist clear away and the Bamboo Mountain is revealed to the world.
But if you look closely, it's all misty on Zhushan Mountain, and you can't see anything clearly.
"The cloud formation is complete."
With a sigh, Jiang Xuan stretched out his hand.
The next moment, the spiritual jade as the base of the formation turned into powder at the same time.
But after the spiritual jade was shattered, not only was the "Cloud and Mist Formation" not broken, but an inexplicable Taoist rhyme appeared on the bamboo mountain, but if you look closely, you can't seem to see anything.
Then another green snake emerged from the snake hole and climbed to the top of the mountain, spitting out a snake message and came to Jiang Xuan.
Looking down at the little green snake, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the green scales on its body were growing towards the cloud and mist spirit patterns:
"By accident, I turned you into a formation spirit."
"However, although "Cloud and Mist Formation" has entered the Taoist realm, it is still a little behind."
"In the future, I will set up an "Eastern Blue Dragon Formation" for you and let you be the spirit of the formation. Let's see if you have the chance to transform into a blue dragon."
Chuzhi tapped the cold snake's head, and Jiang Xuan pointed to the bamboo garden on the top of the mountain:
"Go on and hibernate."
After sending the little green snake away, Jiang Xuan turned his attention to the bitter bamboo again.
This time, "Cloud and Mist Formation" finally reached the Tao realm.
As for the Taoist text, there is once again an additional Taoist text with the word "formation".
"It's interesting to say that the Taoist scriptures I comprehended after perfecting the magical power of "Red Dust" turned out to be "Desire" among the seven emotions and six desires."
"If you are passionate, you don't know where to go to find love."
With a sigh, Jiang Xuan turned his attention to the "Cloud and Mist Formation" again.
"Following the stars in the sky and borrowing the power of the Eastern Azure Dragon Formation, the cloud and mist formation has reached its peak."
"After the "Cloud Mist Array" is completed, it will probably be able to trap practitioners of the second level of the extraordinary. It will be much stronger than before."
"If you want to continue to enhance its power, you can expand the range of the formation, gather more power from heaven and earth, or integrate phantom formations and killing formations into it."
"But it's not necessary. If you want to set up a big formation, it's better to set up a four-image formation."
With thoughts swirling in his mind, Jiang Xuan turned his attention to the bitter bamboo again.
"Now that the "Cloud and Mist Formation" is complete, let's upgrade the "Northern Xuanwu Formation" first."
"In the past, it took 20 packets of fertilizer to increase the 1% proficiency of the "Oriental Blue Dragon Formation". Now that I have broken through the innate realm and understood the way of the "Array", can I use less fertilizer to improve the "Northern Xuanwu Formation"?"
While thinking, Jiang Xuan poured 200 bags of fertilizer onto the bamboo leaf that represented the "Northern Xuanwu Formation".
The next moment, endless enlightenment arose from the bottom of Jiang Xuan's heart, and his understanding of the formation began to improve at an incredible speed.
After a long time, as the enlightenment faded, Jiang Xuan felt a sense of clarity in his heart when he saw that the realm of "Northern Xuanwu Formation" had reached 33% of the first glimpse of the four realms.
"The effect of fertilizer has really improved."
"Fertilizer and feed can only be produced after the plug-in absorbs the inspiration of heaven and earth."
"Using fertilizer is equivalent to raising my understanding to an unimaginable level, and then instilling all kinds of knowledge in me in a way that I can understand."
"The higher my understanding and the sharper my thinking, the more benefits I will get."
"So should I wait until my cultivation level is higher before using fertilizer to improve myself?"
After thinking about it carefully, Jiang Xuan suppressed the idea again.
"In the future, as you become stronger, you will naturally earn faster from fertilizers."
“The fertilizer accumulated over a month of hard work now may not be as good as the fertilizer accumulated in one day in the future.”
"In addition, improving one's realm requires time and effort, and what I lack is time and knowledge, so I can't save it."
Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan raised his head and glanced at the sky, and then with an idea, he received another 660 bags of fertilizer and sprinkled it on the bitter bamboo.
The next moment, the Xuanwu stars in the north shone brightly in the sky. The starlight fell on Zhushan Mountain and condensed into a big black turtle behind Jiang Xuan.
It is not a basalt statue entwined with a turtle and snake, but a simple black turtle, but it can also be called a basalt statue.
With the appearance of black black basalt, Zhushan, which was still filled with the chirping of insects and birds, instantly became quiet.
The cold spring welling up from the ground no longer splashes a drop of water.
The stream reflecting the stars in the sky never had a single ripple.
And Jiang Xuan also completely fell into the world of formations.
On the third day of the morning, he called the golden crow to sweep away the remaining stars and the dawning moon.
However, after Si Chen announced the dawn that day, Jiang Xuan did not wake up from his meditation as usual.
Instead, time moved forward for a long time, and when the sun reached three poles, he opened his eyes.
As all kinds of knowledge about the "Northern Xuanwu Formation" flashed through his mind, the Xuanwu Dharma behind him roared and then turned into smoke and dissipated, and Jiang Xuan's eyes completely regained their clarity.
"If you want to upgrade the Qinglong and Xuanwu formations to the Dao realm, you need to find a large enough place to lay out the formations yourself, and use all you have learned to integrate them."
"Qinglong can be deployed in Sixi County. Xuanwu belongs to water. Although there is no difference between land and water for Xuanwu Formation, we can still start from Yunmengze."
With various thoughts flashing in his mind, Jiang Xuan raised his head and glanced at the sky. Seeing that there was still some time, he simply took out his true jade token and went to find his fifth uncle.
Injecting true energy into the jade tablet to link with the aura of his fifth uncle, the next moment, Yang Shoutian's slightly illusory figure appeared in front of Jiang Xuan:
"What's the matter?"
Jiang Xuan first saluted Yang Shoutian, and then revealed the reason why he was looking for him:
"Fifth Senior Uncle, can Menli take control of Sixi County?"
A trace of doubt flashed in Yang Shoutian's eyes: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Xuan considered his words before continuing:
"The disciple has a little understanding of the "Eastern Blue Dragon Formation" and found that the current formation of the master has only borrowed the power of the sky star, the earth veins, the water veins and the power of all the spirits in the world after falling into the formation.
Within the range.”
"In addition, the borrowed power of the earth's veins is often blocked and will be controlled by the city god."
"So this disciple wants to use Sixi County to conduct experiments, redirect the power of mountains and rivers in Sixi County, and build an "Oriental Blue Dragon Formation" in the Sixi County area."
"It might cause a big fuss by then and require cover from the division."
Yang Shoutian fell silent upon hearing this, and then replied after a long time:
"After the new year, we will arrange for people to take over the Sixi County Literary Academy, the Martial Arts Academy, the county government office, the military camp, the Taoist temple and the City God's Temple."
"The same is true in every village and town."
"Whatever you want to do, just do it."
"On July 15 next year, the ghost gate of Yunmengze will open. We will blockade Yunmengze for three months. If you want to form an formation, do so at that time."
Jiang Xuan's heart surged when he heard this. Just when he was about to say something, Yang Shoutian spoke again:
"You don't have to be embarrassed. I've been planning what will happen next year for decades, and you just happened to get it."
Jiang Xuan was speechless.
Co-author Bai was moved just now?
Before he could say a few words, Yang Shoutian turned off the Water Mirror Technique, and his last words reached Jiang Xuan's ears:
"When you set up your formation, you still have to set up your formation, but don't let your state of affairs fall behind."
"I don't want to see you die of old age one day and have your master with white hair send someone with black hair."
"How can you die of old age?"
Feeling that he still had more than 500 years of life left, Jiang Xuan smiled, put away the Shenxiao jade tablet floating in front of him, and looked up at the sky.
"It's almost time, it's time to go down and eat."
"Otherwise, the ears will not be clean again."
Just as he was about to move away, four little guys, namely Little Taurus, Little Biyan, Gungun and Coal Ball, gathered around Jiang Xuan's feet.
Feeling the thoughts conveyed in their minds, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but laugh:
"You also want to go down the mountain with me to play?"
When he heard the word "down the mountain", Xiao Huidou, who was standing next to the phoenix blood phoenix tree, started wagging his tail crazily, indicating that he was also very interested.
Jiang Xuan thought for a moment, then looked at Dahuang beside him:
"I'll take these little guys down the mountain, and you can keep an eye on the house."
Dahuang nodded, and then lay down in front of the bamboo house door, as if to say that no one could cross her and enter the house.
After giving orders to Dahuang, Jiang Xuan turned his attention to the silly bird on the roof:
"Would you like to go down the mountain together?"
As Jiang Xuan finished speaking, the silly bird tilted its head and looked at Jiang Xuan, then fluttered its wings and landed on his shoulder.
This surprised him.
He thought the silly bird would stay on the eaves as before.
He reached out and touched the little fox sleeping soundly on his arm. He lowered his head and glanced at the little guy surrounding him. Jiang Xuan couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.
It feels good.
At least I'm not alone in this world.
He took the little ones to Jiang's yard in one step, and then the smile on Jiang Xuan's face became even bigger.
The little girl Jiang Yao chased the little tiger all over the yard, leaving a string of laughter like silver bells along the way.
Jiang Wen and Wang Xuejun stood together. In front of them was Jiang Wu, who was tall and thick, sitting at his desk, biting his pen and looking desperate.
Father Jiang was smoking a dry cigarette on the side and chatting happily with the sergeant named Yang Jun who escorted Wang Xuejun to Sixi County.
As for Jiang's mother, she was in the house, probably cooking.
Jiang Xuan's face darkened as he noticed another scent in the room besides Jiang's mother.
I have to avoid it at all costs, but why can't I avoid this White Lotus Saint?
"Cauldron!"
As soon as Jiang Xuan's face darkened, Jiang Yao, who was circling around the yard, saw him, and then ran over and hugged his lap:
"Big pot, the vegetables you brought here are almost finished."
He lowered his head and glanced at Jiang Yao, whose nose was red from the cold. Jiang Xuan's face turned cloudy and then clear. He suppressed his worries and hugged her with a smile on his face:
"Since Yao'er likes to eat, I'll bring some home from the big pot tomorrow."
"The cauldron is the best for me!"
After rubbing Jiang Yao's red nose and seeing her staring at Gungun and the little guys with bright eyes, Jiang Xuan put her on the ground and let her play with her, then walked up to Wang Xuejun, who was wide-eyed.
"Why, layman Wang doesn't know Pindao anymore?"
Jiang Wen, who was standing aside and had just said hello, looked at Jiang Xuan and then at Wang Xuejun.
Jiang Wu also took the opportunity to raise his head, showing an expression of watching a good show.
Wang Xuejun was still a little distracted, "Tao, Taoist Master?"
"Just now."
Seeing Wang Xuejun hesitating and speechless, Jiang Xuan's face became even more interesting:
"Yes, Xiaowen did call me eldest brother just now, and I am his real eldest brother."
"By the way, Pindao remembers that when he was in Yongning County, the layman seemed to have told Pindao that he wanted to invite Pindao to a wedding banquet."
Wang Xuejun was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered all the things that happened after meeting Jiang Xuan in Yongning County, and his face turned red with embarrassment.
When Jiang Wen heard Jiang Xuan's words, he felt a sense of enlightenment:
"Brother, are you the Taoist priest of the Shenxiao sect that Mr. Xue said saved a whole city?"
Jiang Xuan smiled and waved his hand:
"I wasn't the one who saved him. It was my fifth uncle who took action. I just called my uncles to Yongning County."
When Jiang Wen saw Jiang Xuan's admission, he immediately smiled bitterly:
"That's why you asked Mr. Xue to come to Sixi County to block me?"
"How can it be called a blockage?"
Jiang Xuan couldn't hide the smile in his eyes. This feeling of cheating his younger brother was really good:
"Your eldest brother, I want lovers to get married eventually, so that if you two don't get together, you will regret it in the future."
"According to Buddhist teachings, this is also called immeasurable merit, right?"
Seeing that Jiang Wen was speechless, Jiang Xuan glanced at Jiang Wu who was snickering, took out a big book and slapped it on his head:
"What are you laughing laughing?"
"Make this book memorized first. If you can't memorize it, you will be rewarded later in the year."
Jiang Wu looked at the big book about ten centimeters thick on the table, and his whole body immediately went numb:
"Brother, can a person memorize this thing?"
"Oh, since you can't remember it, forget it."
With that said, Jiang Xuan reached for the book.
It's just that Jiang Wu has become more clever recently and snatched the book away first.
After grabbing the book and flipping through a few pages, Jiang Wu's eyes suddenly glowed:
"Brother, is this a physical training method?"
Jiang Xuan nodded:
"The full name of this book is "The Military Art of Star Evil", and it contains the "Tiansha Starlight Technique", a technique for practicing in the first three realms of martial arts."
"As for the name "Military Techniques", it is because in addition to the martial arts techniques, there are also military cultivation techniques, methods for raising military horses, methods for refining military strategists' valuable treasures, and methods for sacrificing military strategists."
"These exercises are all derived from our master's sect and form a system. Even if you practice martial arts, as long as you are recognized by the soldiers, you can also get the blessing of the military formation."
"The more soldiers you have, the stronger they are, and the more convinced they are of you, the stronger the blessing you will receive."
"In addition, the book also contains methods for arranging military formations, as well as military instructions on marching and combat."
After finishing his words, Jiang Xuan knocked on the table with his fingers as he looked at Jiang Wu who was hugging "Star Evil Military Art" tightly:
"Whenever you reach the third level of military cultivation, I can also tell you the cultivation techniques of the fourth level."
"Now, can you remember it?"
Jiang Wu nodded crazily:
"If you can memorize it, give me a month and I will know it by heart. Give me two months and I will know it by heart."
"Remembering is secondary, the important thing is understanding."
"I have discussed it with the master. After the year, the master will send someone to take over Sixi Martial Arts Academy. Then you can go to the martial arts academy and learn from them."
"As for your little brothers, what's the point of being a gangster?"
"Send them directly to the military camp, and I will arrange for someone to 'take care' of them."
After saying this, Jiang Xuan took out another stack of talismans:
"It's not a problem to memorize by rote. Using a few talismans before memorizing can improve a lot of efficiency."
"You can bring flowers to the mountain again after the new year. I will have something for her."
Seeing Jiang Wu nodding in agreement, Jiang Xuan turned his attention to Wang Xuejun again:
"As a big brother, I won't treat others favorably. As long as you get engaged to Xiaowen, I will naturally prepare a gift for you."
Wang Xuejun, whose blushing face had just faded, felt ashamed again when she heard Jiang Xuan's words.
"What are you doing outside? Come in and eat?"
Before Jiang Xuan could say anything more, Jiang's mother's voice came from the house.
This also made the smile on Jiang Xuan's face fade away.
After sighing, he opened the door and entered the room and sat down in his seat. However, when Jiang Xuan saw Bai Xianglian again, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
