"However, it is easy to break this formation. Just cut down all the surrounding bamboo forests, and the formation will naturally break itself. But under the instructor's test, this may not be considered as passing. So what I have to do is
, find the formation eye of this formation."
Xiang Shang knows that every formation has an eye. As long as the eye is broken, the formation will naturally be broken.
"And the formation eye of this four-section formation is at the junction of the illusion formation and the trapped formation." Xiang Shang walked around in a circle along the bamboo forest. With his understanding of the formation and the traction of spiritual energy, he finally stopped.
In the middle of a dense bamboo forest.
But in front of him, it was not bamboo, but a tree, a small tree.
"This formation is really cleverly arranged by the instructor. The formation in the bamboo forest is not a bamboo, but this inconspicuous small tree." Xiang Shang said, grabbing the small tree and pulling it out hard.
With Xiang Shang's huge strength, the small tree was quickly uprooted, and then there was a "pop" sound, like the sound of a bottle cap being opened, and the environment in front of Xiang Shang immediately began to change.
In a daze, Xiang Shang was still in the bamboo forest, but what he saw in front of him was that the bamboo forest was countless times smaller. Not far away, his mentor Huang Rixin stood there, looking at him in surprise.
"Do I pass this?" Xiang Shang asked with a slight smile.
"Of course it counts as passing, but..." Huang Rixin suddenly frowned.
"But what?"
Xiang Shang became a little uneasy.
"However, since you can get out of the formation, why do you want to destroy all the formations I have worked so hard to set up? Do you think you are great?" Huang Rixin scolded with a smile.
"Well, you didn't say you couldn't break the formation, so I..." Xiang Shang said innocently.
Hearing this, Huang Ri was startled and shouted: "Forget it, just stand here and let's wait for them. They should be able to enter the top of the mountain before dark."
Originally, Huang Rixin was quite satisfied with Zhang Heng and Wu Yuanyuan. Not only did their learning progress keep up with his explanations, but their talents and understanding were also very good. Now they have reached halfway up the mountain from the foot of the mountain.
But people are most afraid of comparisons. Compared with Xiang Shang, the two of them are far behind.
However, Huang Rixin naturally would not show it in front of Xiang Shang. He just stood there with a serious face and looked in the direction of Zhang Heng and Wu Yuanyuan.
But in my heart, I felt proud that I could accept Xiang Shang as my student.
Xiang Shang's formation talent is the strongest he has ever seen.
Not only does he know the theory of formations well, but he also has an unusual understanding of formations. He often has to think twice before he can answer some of the questions he asks.
However, despite this, he was still very shocked that Xiang Shang was able to pass the test in just half an hour, and was able to easily break the formation while walking out of it.
Because this has shown that Xiang Shang has already started in the formation.
What Xiang Shang lacks at this time may only be experience and practice, as well as specialized research on more advanced formations...
Naturally, Xiang Shang didn't know what his mentor was thinking, so he stood silently behind him and looked towards the foot of the mountain.
From the top of the mountain, he could easily see where Zhang Heng and Wu Yuanyuan were walking.
Even if the opponent is trapped by the formation and spinning in place, he can clearly see it.
"Fortunately, in addition to learning formation knowledge from my instructor, I also started to study "Nine Volumes of Formation" written by senior Chen Daoyang. Otherwise, I might have been like Zhang Heng and others, spinning around in circles and being unable to get out for a long time.
The formation is coming." Xiang Shang's mind began to wander.
The "Nine Volumes of Formation Dao" left by Chen Daoyang can be said to be extensive and profound. It not only contains many formation theories, but also the methods of breaking formations and setting up formations are also very clever.
Xiang Shang even found many example diagrams of formations, including many formations with more than a hundred knots...
"However, the formation path is indeed too advanced. Even using enlightenment beads to improve it, each improvement is limited, and the amount of spiritual stones it costs is huge."
In the previous month, after Xiang Shang mastered a large amount of formation knowledge, he naturally did not forget to use the Enlightenment Pearl to study the entire "Nine Volumes of Formation" left by senior Chen Daoyang.
It's just that the knowledge of formations is different from the martial arts. It involves the aura of heaven and earth, the geographical environment, various attribute elements, and formation materials. It is extremely complicated. Correspondingly, it is also difficult for Xiang Shang to improve through enlightenment beads.
A lot.
So far, Xiang Shang has used the Dao Enlightenment Bead to comprehend the Dao of Formation three times, each time taking at least half an hour. However, until now, Xiang Shang dare not say that he has fully mastered the knowledge of "Nine Volumes of the Dao of Formation".
At most, it can be considered an introduction.
"Moreover, I don't have enough spiritual stones now. It seems that I will have to spend time to acquire a batch." According to Xiang Shang's estimation, if he wants to completely master the "Nine Volumes of Formation Dao", he will need at least more
Use the Enlightenment Pearl about ten times.
Every time he uses it, he needs to recharge it twice in half an hour, and each time it takes nearly three spirit stones. In other words, at least fifty or sixty spirit stones are needed to allow him to fully master the knowledge in the "Nine Volumes of Formation Dao".
And this, compared with the cost of setting up the formation in the future, is just a drop in the ocean.
Finally, after waiting for another three hours, Zhang Heng and Wu Yuanyuan walked out of the formation and climbed to the top of the mountain.
Seeing Xiang Shang standing there calmly and calmly, obviously having passed the test, they were immediately surprised.
It was precisely because they passed the examination that they became more aware of the difficulty involved. Xiang Shang was able to climb to the top of the mountain one step ahead of them. It was obvious that his understanding of the formation path had surpassed theirs.
"Okay, although it's a little later than expected, you can still pass my assessment. This is my formation card. Only with my formation card can you enter my residence. There, you
We will proceed to the next stage of learning. Formation techniques not only include breaking formations, but the most important thing is setting up formations, and the production of formation disks is also a top priority..."
With that said, the instructor Huang Rixin took Xiang Shang and others down from the top of the mountain.
…
"Now, the study of formations has been on the right track, and it's time to start refining alchemy." Xiang Shang returned to his residence, thought about it carefully, took out his storage bag, checked his mental strength, and immediately took out a lot of it.
something.
Something like a cauldron, dozens of spiritual materials, and a piece of hard paper.
He purchased these from the commercial street.
The cauldron-like thing among them is the furnace he used to make alchemy. It is naturally incomparable with the legendary alchemy furnace. It is a kind of alchemy equipment commonly produced by an equipment group. Although it is not high-end, for Xiang Shang
