Chapter 341: One penny, one penny, old friends come, one case after another
On the top of the mountain, the trees are green.
Tie Tang and Fang Pengyi sat opposite each other, with a set of jade-colored tea sets placed on the purple-gold nanmu tables and chairs.
When the sweet spring rolls, the fragrance of tea will overflow after a while.
The nanmu table also showed the appearance of the entire Qingshui City. Fang Pengyi marked 218 light spots on it and explained to Tie Tang the specific location of the formation.
"These two hundred and eighteen formation bases may seem like a lot, but in fact we only need to coordinate twenty-eight constellations, plus the Four Spirit Formation Eyes and you as the core, there are thirty-three in total, which is the most expensive place. Except for this aspect.
There are still 218 star flags that need to be built. As for the outline of Taoist texts above and below ground, I can do it myself.
The estimated cost before and after...should be around 90,000 to 120,000 yuan.
This is still a situation where our family is responsible for all the natural materials and treasures, otherwise it would be a trivial matter for the price to double."
Tie Tang held up the tea cup and smelled the aroma of the tea. He felt that the price was still a bit expensive.
He knew that after the formation was deployed, it would also cost a lot of money for daily maintenance, and it was not something that could be done once and for all.
"I dare to ask senior, how long can the formation be maintained at full power after it is formed? And what kind of offensive can it withstand?"
Fang Pengyi did not hide anything: "How long it can last... This is a question that cannot be elaborated on, because the conditions are different and the time is also different.
This formation actually has you as its core, so when the formation is fully activated... you must be in the city.
To put it simply, you can form an array with just one person.
At this time, the power of the formation will be fully coordinated by you alone. The power of the formation will also be different according to your cultivation strength.
This is the first full-strength situation!
The second type——
Even if you are present, you must also ensure that there are four masters, at least witches and above, in charge of the Four Spirit Formation Eyes.
At this time, with the combined strength of the five of you, the power of the formation will increase.
The third type——
When the previous two conditions are met.
If there are enough manpower, 218 soul wizards can be summoned, each holding a star flag, and the power of the formation will reach its peak.
The fourth type——
It should be very difficult for this kind of situation to happen in Qingshui City.
That is to summon the 218 witches and Taoists who are above the secret realm of gods and witches. With each of them holding a star flag, they can fully activate the potential of this formation.
The Twenty-Eight Constellations Formation at this time is enough to temporarily compete with the immortal overlords such as the Taoist Master, and may even seriously injure the Taoist Master of the True Immortal level.
But this way.
The star banners in each person's hands cannot last long, and will completely disintegrate and be scrapped in no more than twelve hours at most.
As soon as the Star Flag is broken, the power of this formation is immediately reduced by 50%, which is equivalent to half of it being destroyed. If you want to rebuild it, it will cost a lot of life."
"You can actually compete with the master?" Tie Tang was delighted.
His original plan was to be able to stop the master of the Tao. Although this prerequisite is very harsh, it is not without hope of success.
According to the level of the formation... it actually met his expectations.
From this point of view, the money spent is far from being much, or even very little.
"Don't be happy too early. You get what you pay for. Nothing in this world is cheap, even if I take action." Fang Pengyi poured cold water on him on the spot.
"In the first four situations, although the power of the formation increases gradually, there is a necessary prerequisite...that is, you must be present.
Not only do you need to be present, but you also need to be able to withstand the counter-shock force of the formation.
With the combined power of more than two hundred wizards and Taoists, and the power of the left formation, you may not be able to hold on for long.
Of course.
After all, you are at the top of your game, and your cultivation is progressing very quickly. If this problem has been around for a long time, it will no longer be a problem.
In addition.
Because Qingshui City has no terrain or natural dangers to rely on, and there are very few geographical factors that can be relied upon, the main power of this formation still depends on the formation itself.
This is what I said earlier. Although you have spent money, the effect is not satisfactory and you get twice the result with half the effort.
Each star banner and Taoist talismans on the ground and underground require more time, energy, and financial resources to maintain.
Precisely because there is no earth vein dragon energy to rely on, this formation is more about people and people.
Very dependent on people!
For example, if you are not in the city, or there are no corresponding masters in the city, the power of the formation will immediately drop significantly.
This is very different from the formations of other cities."
"Listening to what senior said...why do you feel that this formation is not a city defense formation, but a prison set for me?
If I am not in the city, is there no other way?"
Tie Tang also feels a little tricky in this aspect. After all, there are always special moments. He cannot stay in Qingshui City all his life. There will always be situations where he is not in the city.
"Without you, the power of the formation will be reduced. I don't need to elaborate on this point, but it does not mean that the formation will not be able to operate at all without you.
In addition to your core formation eye, there are four main four spirit formation eyes. As long as someone is in charge of the four spirit formation eyes, they can still resist the ordinary miscellaneous immortals in the immortal realm.
You can also look for someone who can replace you as the core formation.
However, the method of dominating the body is unparalleled in the world. Apart from you, I have not seen anyone else who has reached the top with the help of this method.
So you can’t find this kind of person!”
Tie Tang knew what the problem he was talking about was. There really wasn't one in the world. At least so far, he had never seen a second prodigy who had cultivated the Ten Ultimate Hegemony and reached the ultimate peak.
"Is there a possibility... that I can refine my own formation into a star banner, and then give it to someone else to control it on my behalf?"
Fang Pengyi was surprised. He didn't expect Tie Tang to have such an idea.
"Better not!"
"Your method is your personal magical power and secret skill. If you refine it into a formation and give it to others, others will understand your secrets and maybe know your weaknesses.
And you are at the top of your game. Just because you can control this formation easily does not mean that others can do the same.
In other words...
Even if you really want to do this, the person who replaces you must at least have top-notch qualifications.
Where can I find such a person?"
Tie Tang laughed: "In my city, if you look for a few top leaders, you can still find them."
"Really?" Fang Pengyi obviously didn't believe it, but Tie Tang didn't need to lie to him, this kind of bullshit would be broken at the first prick.
"I'll take senior to meet my friends later."
"You and I have nothing to do now, why don't you introduce them to me?" Fang Pengyi was eager. The most talented people are not everywhere.
If this supreme genius can inherit his formation method, he will be worthy of being the ancestor.
"The master's reputation is far and wide, so why talk about introduction? Let's go, I, the junior, will show you the way."
........
"Iron Mansion"
Today's Iron Mansion is no different than in the past. Anyone with a little knowledge in the city knows that this is the residence of the new county governor.
Tiehu was afraid that his men would neglect the visitors and ruin Tietang's reputation, so he even asked his son to see the gate.
However, after Tie Tang found out, he immediately recruited back and selected several smart and smooth guards.
At this time, three women with curvy figures arrived in front of the golden gate of Iron Mansion.
The person at the head was wearing a purple skirt, with a translucent veil covering her face, a colorful phoenix and peony sachet hanging from her waist, and colorful phoenix embroidery on the cuffs on both sides.
As soon as the guard guarding the door saw this posture, he knew that the person coming was someone special, and he was very discerning and had the ability to pass the news to the house.
After the three women entered, less than half an hour later, Tie Tang arrived again with Fang Pengyi.
"Master, you are back."
"Well, are everyone inside?"
“Most of them are here, I’ve never seen them go out.”
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard work, it's not hard work." The guard waved his hands repeatedly.
Tie Tang patted his shoulder, said nothing, gave up his position, and walked side by side with Fang Pengyi.
The further inside, the more frightened Fang Pengyi became.
The closer you get, the more you can sense those auras that tower over the mountains.
"One, two, three...four!"
"How is it possible? How is it possible?"
The four supreme peaks, plus Tie Tang, make five people. What is this concept?
It would be too wasteful to settle down in the small Qingshui City with so many great peaks.
Tie Tang heard something strange: "Senior, there are quite a few talents in my house, but not this many. You made a mistake."
"That's right. Plus you have a total of five top players present. Tsk tsk. It seems like that boy Le Xian's vision is getting more and more powerful.
If he can find you, he will have no worries for the rest of his life."
Five?
Now Tie Tang is confused.
He counted it several times with his fingers, and found that there were only four.
This doubt will be answered in no time.
The two walked through the winding corridors, passed through several houses, and finally stopped in the largest courtyard in the mansion.
Tie Tang glanced around and immediately knew where the fifth person came from.
This familiar aura has obviously been hidden by the real owner. If it weren't for such a close distance, he wouldn't even have sensed it before.
"What kind of wind is blowing today? How can it bring you..."
"Have you entered the secret realm of witches? Just in time!"
The purple figure remained motionless, still facing Tie Tang, but a strong wind suddenly blew in the courtyard, causing the bamboo leaves all around to rattle.
A large handprint holding up the sky fell from the sky. It was powerful, but it was concealed and did not even hurt any surrounding flowers and plants.
"You take action as soon as you come...your temper is getting worse."
Tie Tang stood there, raised his hand and punched nine times, and the power of the punch turned into nine green dragons that were ten feet long and flew out.
It was also silent but powerful, breaking the big handprint holding the sky in mid-air. The remaining three dragon shadows were entangled and intertwined, flying into the sky and dissipating.
This time Tie Tang was not satisfied.
His punching power overflowed, which was a sign of lack of control over his own strength.
The opponent only used his hand to test and did not hit with any power, but he seemed to be overreacting and his punch was too overbearing.
This extremely subtle performance cannot be seen by ordinary people.
But there are only a few of these here...who are ordinary people.
"Ahem, I have just acquired a method, and I am not very proficient yet. Let me introduce to you, this is Senior Fang, the master of formations."
Tie Tang laughed and quickly skipped the topic, and everyone came forward to greet him.
When the purple figure was introduced, Fang Pengyi waved his hands before Tie Tang opened his mouth.
"I know this person, the daughter of Master Feng Mansion. Fang has been famous for a long time."
Feng Bingyao saluted, but she didn't dare to exaggerate. The other person was also a prominent figure, and in terms of real connections, he was much more powerful than her father.
"Tie Tang, a vulgar martial artist, how can I ask you to condescend to this level?"
"Haha, if you can speak, speak more." Tie Tang laughed.
Fang Pengyi didn't know what conflict they had, but still told the truth about the process.
"By drawing a talisman, you can summon the Tianpeng Formation Master... This is a good deal."
Tie Tang was neither sad nor happy, and sat down calmly: "You said it so lightly, why don't you also draw one?"
"Hey, I can't do it, I can't do it, there's no need for it." How dare Fang Pengyi agree?
He knew what Tie Tang meant and wanted to help him test Feng Bingyao's talisman qualifications.
But who is Feng Bingyao?
She is a descendant of Wu Mu!
No matter how talented she was, Fang Pengyi would not dare to accept her. Otherwise, if word spread, he and Wu Mu would compete for disciples. No one can afford this reputation.
With Feng Bingyao present, Tie Tang couldn't care less about talking about others and could only entertain her politely.
"The world is so big... Where can't you go? Why are you hanging out in my little puddle?"
Feng Bingyao looked at Tianwen, then at Li Geng, and finally turned her eyes to Tie Tang, the meaning is self-evident.
"Damn it, I'm so aggrieved at the top of my game. Why would anyone want to step on me?" Tian Wen was so excited by the gaze that he cursed on the spot.
No way.
Except for him and Long Yu, among the five top experts present, the other three have already entered the mysterious realm of witches.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Long Yu is still a peak person with thirty-six apertures. Unlike them, he doesn't even have a worse partner.
Among the four, he is the only one with a backward cultivation and a great witch of soul, and he speaks softer than the others.
Tie Tang laughed loudly, stood up, walked to Tian Wen and sat down next to him, and ordered the servants to prepare food and drinks.
"Sooner or later, let's not think so much. Everyone is here today. Let's have a few drinks first."
Some people were still outside and not in the house. Tie Tang called people one by one and called Fang Lexian back.
As soon as Fang Lexian entered the door, he immediately knelt down and gave Fang Pengyi a big gift.
No matter in terms of seniority or strength, the person in front of him can be regarded as his ancestor, and he has to be respectful.
"Okay, we're not at home, so there's no need for too much etiquette." Fang Pengyi helped him up, and the two of them sat at the same table, carefully calculating the materials needed to set up the formation, as well as the actual cost.
Tie Tang and others were drinking and eating. On the surface, everything seemed calm, but in reality, he and Feng Bingyao, Li Geng, and Tian Wen were having a great fight.
This can be seen from the broken tachyons and cups all over the floor.
After three rounds of drinking, night falls.
Li Geng got a little drunk and started to provoke the other three people, especially Feng Bingyao.
He had actually competed with the other party before entering the Magical Secret Realm earlier. Although it was a tie at the time, he actually knew that he had lost by one point.
As extremely talented people, everyone has their own pride.
We lost a lot before, but now we are in the secret realm of witches and wizards. Who is stronger and who is weaker? No one will be convinced without a fight.
"The great monk is dead. I don't think he can become a magic witch for a while. Why don't the three of us make an appointment to compete?"
Tianwen didn't like hearing this anymore. He was so angry that he was shaking all over. He jumped up and hit Li Geng on the head several times.
"Niubi, you'd better be one step ahead of me, otherwise I will make you understand why the flowers are so red."
"Cut!"
"I'm tired of hearing what you said, I'm tired of hearing what you said!"
"It's better to choose a day than to hit it. If nothing happens, why not start now." What is Feng Bingyao here for?
She is here to fight.
Now that I heard Li Geng take the initiative to mention it, there was no reason to disagree.
The last time Tie Tang broke Yuan Shi's clutches, she was truly grudged against her. She would never give up until Tie Tang regained her position.
"Cough! Cough!"
Tie Tang coughed twice, attracting the attention of several people.
"In this way, today is different from the past. After all, I am the head of a county. How decent it is to fight and kill. Even if you tell me, it will make people laugh."
Zhen Guandong, who was sitting next to him and had a mouth full of oil, suddenly raised his head after hearing this, with soup dripping from the corner of his mouth.
"Brother, we can't be cowardly and do it with them. Why did you become an official when you became an official?"
"Do you want to listen to what you are saying?"
Ji Yingzhe was also watching the fire. He wanted to see the competition between these top talents.
"Brother Tie, people use official words in their own words. How come you've changed so quickly and gone back to your old self? Is it really just your words that you have left?"
Tie Tang also drank and his face turned red. He did not use witchcraft, and his blood energy dissipated the alcohol.
"It's not a big deal for you all to watch the excitement, but don't you know that the official documents piled up in my county office have almost turned into a mountain.
Yesterday, the county magistrate Chao told me that he wanted to be a county magistrate and become an official. As a county magistrate, he could not do the job of a county guard.
Do you really think I’m so idle?
If the city defense formation hadn't fallen yet, it would be all thanks to your ability to see me."
Feng Bingyao didn't take it seriously: "How can a mere county guard be able to compete with the witchcraft? The worst thing is that if you don't do it, it will be difficult to improve your cultivation quickly if you continue like this."
"You don't feel pain in your back when you stand and talk. I'm too lazy to argue with you."
"You..." Feng Bingyao was furious, but unable to refute.
She was indeed born in a good family, with Wu Mu as her backing, and her father was a feudal official who was in charge of a government. She had no shortage of training resources or skills, so she had whatever she wanted.
Compared with Tie Tang's background, one is in the sky and the other is on the earth. It is really incomparable.
However, there are also people present who dare to speak, can speak, and understand Tie Tang’s thoughts.
Tian Wen didn't have that much nonsense, and started directly: "Stop talking nonsense, let's have a fight, I'll see how tired you are, tell me, how do you want to compete?"
Tie Tang chuckled, slapped his Dantian forcefully, and spat out the Human Emperor's handwriting.
This scene made Feng Bingyao frown.
"You are so disgusting!"
"Disgusting?"
"This is the handwriting of the Human Emperor. There are so many people who want to be as disgusted as me."
"Oh?"
"Is this the Taiwu Nirvana Code written by the Human Emperor himself? How did you get it?"
Tie Tang held the classic book with one hand, not daring to put it on the table, and rolled his eyes.
"Do you think this kind of thing can be said?"
"I'm not lying. It's not like we haven't fought against each other before. If we come back a few times, it'll probably be like that.
Why don't we compete, there are real benefits, and see who can comprehend this most amazing skill in the world?"
Feng Bingyao slowly shook his head: "I have read the transcript, but I can't understand it at all."
"Brother Tie... This is really nothing compared to the reputation." Li Geng also refused, because he had read a little bit and didn't get even the slightest insight.
"Then don't blame me. I happen to be busy at this time. Either wait for the great monk to break through, or wait for a while."
"Okay, I have time, I can wait here slowly." Feng Bingyao's answer was beyond Tie Tang's expectation.
"Well, you have to have food, food and accommodation here, and you have to do something. Taoist priests and monks all have jobs to do."
Feng Bingyao sneered: "You became a county guard...and nothing else has improved, but your face has become much thicker."
Tie Tang's face turned red, and he quickly lowered his head and drank a glass, pretending to be drunk.
At this moment.
The guard who was guarding the door hurriedly walked to the courtyard door and was led to Tietang's table.
"Master, there is a man named Li Qingyuan outside, who claims to be the county arrester, and he said he has something important to report to you."
"Li Qingyuan..."
Tie Tang shook his muscles and bones, and there was a crackle and explosion all over his body. The alcohol was completely driven away, and then he squeezed the seal with his hand, and his body disappeared like a dreamy bubble.
In front of the gate of Iron Mansion, Li Qingyuan walked back and forth extremely uneasily when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Why are you panicking?"
He looked up and saw Tie Tang standing in front of him.
"Sir, we found the suspected murderer, but found that the two of them were not in the city at all. They may have been killed and silenced, and their bodies were destroyed."
"Then you, the joint inspector, will continue to follow the clues. Why are you looking for me?"
Li Qingyuan looked around for a moment, then approached Tie Tang and whispered softly: "Sir, I checked this eucalyptus here and there, and found an old eucalyptus.
The old murderer should have been beheaded long ago, and that’s what the file says.
But...
The brothers from Plum Blossom Hall said they had seen this person recently."
