Chapter 923: The Civilization System of the Formation (1/4)
The simplicity of the Dao is just like the demon clan and the witch clan in the prehistoric world. They are the most primitive and pure energy, and the witch clan proves the Tao with their strength.
They are expected to summarize millions of words of cultivation techniques, use all kinds of gorgeous words to pile up beautiful prose, and every sentence and every word can be read with different meanings horizontally and vertically...
Think too much.
You know, the entire text of the Tao Te Ching is only 5,000 words.
When I say complex, I mean the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills, which support a civilization system.
The core exercises are not difficult and obscure, but the many uses derived from the core exercises are all-encompassing and cover a myriad of things. Coupled with the language barrier, the faults in civilization, and the limitations of cognition, this makes the book difficult to read and the large characters cannot be read.
knowledge.
At least, Xi Tong did not find it too difficult when he delved into the Eight-nine Mysterious Techniques. If there was anything he did not understand or had doubts about, he could basically understand it by comparing it with the civilization of the world of Atlantis.
It is for this reason that he was able to create the transformation talisman.
The many cultivation techniques of the Monster Clan and the Witch Clan have not yet formed their own systems. Compared with the Eighty-nine Mysterious Gong system, the Electrical Civilization system is extremely weak.
However, there are many dazzling existences in the cultivation techniques of the demon clan and witch clan, and each one of them is enough to become the core and support a civilization system.
For example, the Zhoutian Xingdou Formation, the Hunyuan Heluo Formation, and the Dutian Shensha Formation.
The Zhoutian Xingdou Formation uses the stars in the sky as its base to form a large formation. Its power is unpredictable. It is an formation that protects the foundation of the demon clan and represents the sky.
The Hunyuan Heluo Formation is designed according to the ancient mountains and rivers. The changes in the mountains and seas can be reproduced in the formation, which is a representative place.
The representative of the Dutian Divine Evil Formation, the Twelve Ancestral Witches summon the true form of Pangu through this formation, which can fight against the demon clan's Zhoutian Star Dou Formation.
In Xi Tong's view, these three formations can completely represent the three realms of heaven, earth, and man. The three formations are almost the same, but each one has infinite changes and unparalleled mysteries, and many changes and functions can be derived from them.
In the Age of Conferred Gods, the most powerful formations were the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and the Immortal Killing Sword Formation set up by the Tongtian Cult. Compared with the former, they were almost at the same level.
"The civilization system of the prehistoric world should be the formation."
When he was in the world of Atlantis, Xi Tong stole a weakened version of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation from the Samsara Man, and easily killed the King of the Seven Seas with this formation.
The Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is only a second-rate formation in the Fengshen World and is not worth mentioning.
At that moment, Xi Tong had a flash of inspiration.
He vaguely grasped something, so he concentrated his mind, as if diving deeply, to pursue that ray of light.
Luo Tianyi noticed Xi Tong's mysterious state and immediately issued an order to the surrounding dragon people, ordering them to be on duty and alert within ten kilometers of Xi Tong.
Don't let any external factors interfere with learning the path to enlightenment.
In his mind, Xi Tong was thinking about a simple, boring, but crucial question.
What is strength?
Punching and kicking is strength, wielding swords and swords is strength, chanting incantations and casting spells is strength, exorcising ghosts and inspiring gods is strength...
The second question is, what is the criterion for determining strength?
In the past, Xi Tong has always used acquired (1-3 stars), innate (4-6 stars), and divine level (7-9 stars) as the basis for classification.
But after arriving in the world of gods, a problem arose - cultivators.
How to define the strength of a cultivator?
As far as Nezha in the world of gods is concerned, he was born the day after tomorrow. After practicing with his master for several years, he reached the innate state. After eating a few dates and drinking a few sips of wine, he had three heads and six arms. He had the power of rules and was considered a god.
However, all of Nezha's strength lies in his magic weapon. Without the magic weapon, he is nothing at all.
To give another example, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong, the princes of the Great Shang Dynasty, were of average strength, but after receiving the Fantian Seal and the Yin-Yang Mirror given by their master, they actually had the ability to deceive their masters and destroy their ancestors.
The magic weapon is indeed an external cause and cannot be counted as part of the strength. But based on this principle, how can the gunman's strength be calculated?
In this way, the magic weapons in the world of gods are equivalent to guns, missiles, and nuclear bombs, which are tools and weapons for the weak to defeat the strong.
Some people may say that this is a foreign object, not the power cultivated by one's own punches and kicks, so it does not count.
So, how to calculate the power of thunder given by Mjolnir?
It is also given by external things, but it is a power controlled by oneself.
Thor's Hammer is indeed buggy in terms of granting strength, but it relies on this ability to become an artifact of creation, just like the Donghuang Bell is infused with merit and luck, blessed by the thoughts of all living beings, and gains the power of time.
There is no need to dwell on the source and nature of strength.
In the future, there will be more worlds, more forms of power, and the larger framework of strength levels will be subject to more and more impacts and even subversions.
So, how to define it?
The demon clan's strength levels are simple and crude when it comes to formulating the levels: demon ding, demon soldiers, demon generals, demon kings, demon gods, and the supreme demon emperor Taiyi, demon emperor Dijun.
You don’t rely on cultivation at all, just say you are who you are.
As long as you reach a certain level and status, and with the accumulation of massive resources, it won't be a problem.
This method is impossible to learn and is meaningless.
The hierarchy system was originally designed to select talents and define strengths and weaknesses, but the way the demon clan is divided is the opposite.
Xi Tong continued to think.
Many pictures float before my eyes like a long river, day and night.
The powerful spiritual thoughts are centered on Xi Tong and radiate in all directions, and the realm of the unity of heaven and man is unfolded without reservation.
He saw the gurgling water.
He heard the faint chirping of insects.
He smelled the rich fragrance of flowers.
He felt the sea breeze...
The wandering mind returned to its original place and was attracted by the clanging sound of forging.
He saw a hairy blacksmith clumsily pushing the blower, and as a result, half of his body was wrapped in the raging flames. He wiped the ashes from his face and body, and the hairy man had turned into a qualified dwarf.
"Idiot, the wind should be blown as hard as you can. It can't be too strong or too weak. If you do this, the charcoal fire will only be able to exert less than 30% of its effectiveness."
boom!
It was like a big firecracker exploding in my ear.
Xi Tong, who was wandering thousands of miles around, was instantly kicked back to his true body, like a replay of the Big Bang in reverse.
A sprout is born in nothingness, turns into tangible substance, and grows crazily.
This is the essence of enlightenment.
"A display of power! That's what it is!"
The most obvious truth has always been right under my nose, but I have never been able to discover it.
When fighting against the five scum creatures, the punches and kicks are not strong enough, and the posture is wrong. If the punches are thrown out with only one force, the attack power will be reduced, and they may even fall down due to the instability of the lower body.
The slightly stronger ones are powerful and well-organized in their punches. They also know how to attack the enemy with fatal blows. They can exert their full strength and punch to the flesh.
As the skills are honed and the moves are understood, I begin to understand various different strengths, which can be achieved by borrowing force to hit, moving a thousand pounds with four ounces, etc. One force can exert double, triple or even ten times the effect.
The body continues to transform, the energy becomes more and more refined, the skills and weapons mastered increase to a greater extent, and one force can achieve a hundred times the damage.
The formation method is to continuously push up the multiple of the increase, gather the weak, and defeat the strong one. The effect exerted by one force through the formation is almost infinite.
Is this the secret of the formation civilization system?
