"That's right." Mr. Xue said directly without covering up.
Sitting down silently, Mo Tian picked up a low-grade spiritual stone and played with it and said, "In that case, why did Mr. Xue tell me the formation and let me know the secret of the formation before?"
"The most important thing for you at that time was self-preservation. Besides, how could I know that you would get into sword-making in the future, and even make such high achievements in sword-making," said the old man.
"I'm not afraid of your pride either."
"Mo Tian, I once accompanied my master in the five major realms. I have seen many powerful swordsmiths and formation masters."
"Because of the Shura Demonic Sword, the master has been communicating with the swordsmith for some time."
"That is a ninth-level swordsmith, a true swordsmith. That senior has lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests for many years, and the master also met him by chance."
"At that time, when the master was asking for advice on the Shura Demon Sword, he was also deeply fascinated by the swordsmith's practice taught by the senior. The master even said that he wanted to become a swordsmith with that senior as his teacher."
"The master at that time had already stood at the pinnacle of the world. His strength was unmatched by anyone. Even the strong men of the four major clans did not dare to confront the master alone."
"According to the master's understanding and strength, it will be easy to become a swordsmith."
"Then why didn't your master become a swordsmith?" Mo Tian asked curiously.
Sighing, Mr. Xue said slowly: "Because at that time, the master was already an array mage, or a high-level array mage."
"As I said before, the alchemist can be regarded as an accessory profession. When the master became a high-level formation mage, he also came into contact with alchemy and successfully refined a sixth-grade elixir, becoming a high-level alchemist.
."
"But at that time, the master did not continue. The sixth-grade elixirs were enough. In addition, the seventh-grade and above elixirs can be called magic pills. It takes a lot of time to become a seventh-grade alchemist. Sixth-grade elixirs are enough."
An alchemist is enough."
"Do you understand what I mean?" Mr. Xue asked, looking at Mo Tian.
Shaking his head, Mo Tian looked at Mr. Xue in confusion.
"Since we have all become sixth-level alchemists, wouldn't it be better to take advantage of the victory and pursue it? The seventh-level alchemy is called the divine elixir, so being able to refine the divine elixir should be of greater help to the first-generation Shura demon body owner, right?"
"No, no, no." Mr. Xue shook his head.
"You still don't understand what I mean."
"Didn't you notice? To become a high-level alchemist, a sixth-level alchemist is far easier than an array mage or a swordsmith."
"Swordsmiths are called high-level after the fourth level. In other words, it is very difficult to upgrade to the next five levels."
"Although the formation master calls the sixth-level formation master a high-level formation master, in fact, being called a sixth-level formation master will be a qualitative change. It is not like an alchemist who only needs to refine elixirs."
"In alchemy, what becomes stronger is the spirit, as well as the control of Yuanli. But the formation mage does not. The formation mage requires spirit, Yuanli, understanding, and even involves the laws of heaven and earth."
"In the formation, that is the world you control. High-level formation masters can turn the formation into a small world and change the rules of the formation at will."
"You should understand what I said, right?" Mr. Xue looked at Mo Tian helplessly.
"Xue Lao, do you mean that it takes a lot of time for an array mage to become a high-level array mage? Even after becoming a high-level array mage, I don't even have time to forge swords." Mo Tian replied.
"Absolutely." Mr. Xue nodded.
Putting a hand on Mo Tian's shoulder, Mr. Xue said, "Didn't I just say that the master is going to meet a senior who is a ninth-level swordsmith?"
"Yeah." Mo Tian nodded.
"My master had the same idea as you at that time. He also wanted to make swords with formations and practice together. Moreover, my master was already an eighth-level formation mage at that time, a powerful being who was one step away from being a ninth-level formation mage." Xue Lao said.
"Compared with the master, you are still far behind. After all, if the master reaches the level of a ninth-level array mage, it is still possible to practice sword making. It is really not advisable for you to focus on three things just to get started."
"But even if the master was about to become a ninth-level array mage, he told the senior what he wanted. The senior still didn't teach the master how to make a sword. Instead, he helped him solve some confusion about the Shura Demon Sword and told the master not to think about becoming a magician anymore.
Swordsmith."
"Mo Tian, take out your magic sword and show it to me." Elder Xue said.
With a touch of the ring, Mo Tian handed Old Man Xue what he thought was the best human-level high-grade demon sword he had ever refined.
With his eyes focused, Mr. Xue stared at the texture of the demon sword and the fluctuations of the demon sword. Mr. Xue could not help but praise it.
"Mo Tian, listen to my advice and practice making swords in secret. As for formations, I will just tell you how to set them up. Don't be obsessed with formations."
"Mr. Xue, why do you keep trying to persuade me to give up the profession of formation mage? I am really interested in formation magic!"
Looking at Mo Tian, Xue Lao's eyes softened, looking at Mo Tian as if he were looking at his own grandson.
"Because I saw the future of the swordsmith." A faint smile appeared on Old Xue's face.
"That ninth-level swordsmith, a powerful being who stands at the top of the swordsmith, has no talent as good as yours."
"At Master's time, swordsmiths had begun to gradually decline. Although it was not like there were no swordsmith sects now, there were fewer and fewer truly high-level swordsmiths, such as eighth-level or even ninth-level swordsmiths.
"
"In addition to character and talent, it's more about the way of heaven."
"The demon body of Shura appeared, and the way of heaven gradually awakened. Originally, the energy of the five major domains were similar, and the Holy Land just had some more secret realms."
"However, when Tiandao awakened, most of the Yuanli from the four major domains were placed in the holy land by Tiandao and placed within the four major clans. This also made it difficult for the warriors of the four major domains to break through to the War Pill Realm, because the Yuanli was not enough to break through.
It is necessary, so it will always be stuck in the battle elixir realm."
"The most important fifth-level swordsmith among swordsmiths is that they need the Infant Qi of the Battle Infant Realm after the War Pill to awaken the sword soul in the sword. So at that time, the swordsmith gradually began to decline, and finally to the present
Swordsmiths became so rare that there was not even a single sect left."
"Because of the ninth-level swordsmith, the master can control the Shura Demonic Sword, so this is a favor we owe to the swordsmith."
"Your qualifications can fully qualify you to be called a high-level swordsmith, reaching the pinnacle of swordsmiths, or even a ninth-level swordsmith!"
"I'm not afraid of your pride. I've made it clear that at your age, none of the ninth-level swordsmiths have achieved as much as you!"
"The sword bones in your body are transformed from earth-level high-grade warriors. When you grow up in the future, your sword bones will also grow with it."
"Moreover, the sword energy contained in your body was transformed by countless swordsmiths, which will be of great help to you in becoming a high-level swordsmith in the future. The master of the swordsmithing sect even devoted his life to cultivating it after his death.
To blend into your body."
"And you want to practice formations now? Are you worthy of those who gave you sword energy and buried sword bones for you?"
"Xue Lao, I still don't understand why you are trying to persuade me to give up becoming an array mage?" Mo Tian frowned tightly and looked at Mr. Xue with complete incomprehension, who had been persuading him earnestly.
