Recalling the past life, a group of their Taoist friends had tried the use of many formations. Through their own experiences and scientific testing, they found that arranging some formations did have the effect of gathering spiritual energy. However, because the previous life was a Dharma-ending world, even the legendary
The large formations of the Immortal Family can at most have some health-preserving effects. The effect of defending against foreign enemies and dividing space cannot be effective at all. However, some maze formations can still play a partial role. The most representative one is the one used by Zhuge Liang to defend against enemies.
The enemy's eight formations are revealed.
The function is actually the same as some mazes, which can create psychological and visual illusions for those entering the formation, making them unable to distinguish the direction and trapped in the formation, unable to escape.
As for why John set up the Taiyin Golden Lock Formation instead of the ordinary eight-door Golden Lock Formation, it was because he returned to the main world from the mission world, built the foundation, and then took up his position as a ranger, which seemed to have inspired the originally hidden bloodline, and for Moonlight
The energy in his body became sensitive and friendly. Whenever the moonlight shined at night, John could clearly feel that his physical and spiritual strength recovered much faster than during the day. Therefore, a lunar gold that could use the magic power of the moonlight could
Locking Formation is undoubtedly the most suitable place for him to practice at a low level.
Practitioners pay attention to the Dharma and Wealth Couple Land. Although this land is ranked last, it is also a key factor that determines how far you can go on this path.
Therefore, practitioners of Taoism, big or small, have to build their own place of practice since ancient times. After entering and becoming a disciple, they have to build their own place of practice. In ancient times, it was called a dojo. Whether it is a famous mountain, a spiritual realm, or a legendary cave, it is actually a dojo for practitioners in the beginning.
John had already planned it, but today he suddenly encountered such a thing. In order to resist possible threats, he simply set up defenses in his apartment in advance and waited for prey to come.
The use of the essence of the sun and moon and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be said to be the special skill of Xuanmen monks in Middle Earth. From the beginning of the birth of the immortal way, it was developed by imitating the ancient gods' practices of sucking wind, drinking dew, and swallowing the essence of the sun and moon.
.
Although in the era of John's previous life, there were few monks who could directly utilize the power of the blazing sun. After all, mortal monks were not born as monsters and could directly and instinctively absorb the essence of the sun and moon. However, the power of the lunar calendar was relatively cool and gentle, and there were still many of them.
The monks at the bottom can use various means to take advantage of it.
For example, some Feng Shui magic circles can indeed change the magnetic field and aura of the home environment.
It just so happened that he also felt that there was really no sense of security in Rem Town recently, and there was a senior vampire who had lived for at least a hundred years watching outside, so he simply arranged an eight-door golden lock array to protect his home and let the past life pass.
The formations of the Xuanmen of China can also be carried forward in this world.
Laying out the formation also requires a certain amount of space and distance. Fortunately, the apartment they live in is not small. It is called an apartment. It is actually similar to a townhouse. It covers an area of several acres alone, about a dozen acres in size in the previous life. The following is
Gardens, courtyards, stables and other facilities are all available, enough space for him to set up formations.
There is not much else about the New World, except that it is vast and sparsely populated. The federal government issued a land reclamation order more than ten years ago. In the western region, as long as one gold pound is paid, one can arbitrarily delineate an acre of land. The local government has implemented it in detail.
Later, many wastelands were sold at three to five times or even ten times the price, otherwise no one would buy them. After all, you still have to open up wasteland and build it yourself, as well as guard against robbers, wild beasts and elusive monsters.
The so-called eight gates are the open gate, the closed gate, the life gate, the injury gate, the Du gate, the scene gate, the death gate, and the shock gate.
In fact, it is the eight hexagrams of Qian Kan Gen Zhen Xun Li Kun Dui in the Bagua, and then the five elements are used to circulate the life and death, and the changes in life and death of Yin and Yang are one of the most commonly used formations in Xuanmen besides the Nine Palaces formation. As for the Five Elements formation, Although it is simple, it is just because it is too simple that it is more difficult to arrange it to be effective.
However, although it is very common and ordinary people have heard of it, these basic formations are skills that are easy to learn and difficult to master, because both the Nine Palaces and the Bagua are very changeable. Advanced ones can change the sky and the earth, fix the earth, water, wind and fire, and transform the heaven and earth. It can also be done by returning to chaos. It can only deceive the vision of mortals in a superficial way. People with a stronger will or beasts with beast intuition can see through it.
In his previous life, John was a practicing enthusiast who had been on forums and their Taiyin Dharma Association for many years. Although formations were not his best skill, talisman formations were inseparable. He had studied the art of talismans and naturally dabbled in formations. , although he is only at the bottom of the class in terms of understanding of formations, it is still very easy to arrange this basic formation according to the script.
Now that there are sufficient materials, sufficient manpower, and a suitable location, it is natural to set up an eight-door golden lock array.
The Eight-Door Golden Lock Array is easy to lay out. You can just take a few trees and rocks to form an array. It is hard to say. If you want to form a formation with a certain degree of defense against the impact of extraordinary power, you need spiritual items or magic. Use weapons and the like as a base.
For a while, John couldn't find a suitable magic weapon, but this didn't stop him. He directly used a whole piece of Arctic jade, which is a kind of jade from the New World, and divided it into seven-inch-long jade as the talisman paper. Got eight jade talismans.
Corresponding to the Bagua hexagrams and attributes, the key is to use spiritual power to give it spirituality. In the previous life, there was also a saying called consecration.
"What material is this?"
Watching John skillfully pick up the carving knife and carve the jade charm, Klaus asked with some strangeness and curiosity.
You must know that when we went to school together in Rodriguez, John's art classes were only average. He was better at painting, but not so good at sculpture and music.
After John finished carving a jade talisman, he explained:
"This material is called jade. We usually classify it with jade here. It is a type of nephrite and is produced in the Ivan Empire of the Old World and the Near Eastern countries."
"In the distant Eastern world, this kind of thing is a valuable precious jewelry, comparable to the red and sapphires here, but the various gemstones in the Eastern world are far less expensive than here. In the New World, there are not many people who like jade jewelry. Therefore, the value is not only far inferior to that of the Eastern world, but also cannot be compared with countries in the Near East such as Persia. The raw ore is so cheap that it can be sold for just one car. The most important thing is that this material is still an unknown material in the Eastern world. The extraordinary materials lost to gemstones have extremely high energy affinity, and the purer the quality, the greater the value."
Hearing this, Klaus's eyes suddenly turned red as he stared at the jade talisman and said:
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's quickly raise funds to buy as much of this material as possible and hoard it..."
Although he doesn’t have much economic acumen, his many years of aristocratic education are not in vain. Klaus is also very good at hoarding business behavior, not inferior to those businessmen. Several other people were also in high spirits after hearing this. As John’s Followers, if John makes money, their lives will be better. If nothing else, if John eats meat, they will have no problem following suit and drinking a few sips of soup.
This way of making quick money through spreading information is not looked down upon by people in the Western world. On the contrary, only by making enough money based on your own vision and ability will you be respected by others.
