Now that we have exchanged greetings with Situ Zhi, the rest of the time will be spent talking about business.
Under Situ Zhi's description, Jiang Beiran quickly understood what was wrong with the Yulu Formation.
There are many ways for formations to exist, but most of the time there are only three.
One is the "trap" type formation, which will be activated once someone steps in or a certain condition is triggered.
Such a formation will have no effect before being triggered, and naturally there will be no consumption.
In addition, after this type of formation is triggered, the effect is explosive, that is, the effect is fully displayed in an instant, but it will not last too long.
Another type of formation is the continuous formation.
This type of formation is always in a triggered state from the moment it is set up, so the consumption is naturally much greater than that of a "trap" type formation, and what it consumes is spiritual energy.
The larger the continuous formation, the more spiritual energy is needed to support it.
Therefore, this kind of continuous formation will have many more spiritual stone positions than the "trap" formation, and it also requires regular maintenance by the formation master to maintain the effect.
Yulu Formation is undoubtedly a continuous formation, and as a top-level earth-grade formation, its consumption is far greater than that of ordinary formations.
However, those who can set up this kind of formation or are willing to use this kind of formation basically have a big family and a big business, and they don't need this little spiritual stone.
But the problem this time is that under normal circumstances, the Yulu Formation can easily support a Xuansheng in long-term operations, allowing him to have a far more ferocious "firepower" reserve than his opponent.
But this time the consumption of the Yulu Formation was too exaggerated.
You must know that during these three days, a group of mysterious saints are counting on it to provide mysterious energy.
group!
Xuansheng!
The combined consumption of profound energy by these two units is simply an astronomical figure.
The fact that the Yulu Formation was able to last until the third day before any problems appeared shows that the organizer was very powerful. They definitely maximized the effect of every spiritual stone in the formation, and 80% of these spiritual stones are of heaven level. Otherwise, even if
No matter how powerful the organizer is, the node design alone will never be able to afford such consumption.
Although there are many powerful people in Yuan City now who have the Heaven-level Spiritual Stones of the Heaven and Earth Ring, the problem is that this Yulu Formation is not a TV remote control. If it runs out of power, just replace it with two batteries.
This is the top-level earth-level formation, and it is a very complicated technical task to "charge" it again.
The trouble is that the person who planted it is not in Yuan City at the moment.
This is really life-threatening. A group of Xuansheng, oh no, the entire Tong Kingdom is now counting on it to continue its life. If it really can't continue to play its role, then everyone will really die together.
So after discovering signs of instability in the Yulu Formation, Gu Liangqian immediately called for two ninth-level formation mages in Yuan City, and they were also the only two ninth-level formation mages in Yuan City.
After the two ninth-level formation masters came to the scene for inspection, they both said that they could restore the Yulu Formation to its original state, but they were not absolutely sure.
Gu Liangqian breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the first sentence, but the second half of it made his heart skip a beat.
If it were normal times, if you were not sure, you would not be sure. After all, it is such a high-quality formation, and failure is normal.
But now that the whole Yuan City is relying on it to live, it is really a matter of trying or dying.
Once the repair of the Yulu Formation fails, they will have no chance to do it again.
After understanding how critical the situation was, Jiang Beiran carefully inspected the Yulu Formation.
In the end, I came to the same conclusion as the other two ninth-grade array masters.
It can be repaired, but there is a chance it will break.
However, compared to them, Jiang Beiran has several more protections, and the safest among them is the system option.
If he tries to repair it, the system will inevitably skip the option. Otherwise, breaking the guarantee of the Yulu Formation will be a big trouble at the heaven level.
Therefore, Jiang Beiran can completely determine whether there will be any problems with his action based on the system's option to jump or not.
"How is it, Beiran, have you come up with any perfect strategy?" Situ Zhi asked as he looked at Jiang Beiran who had finished thinking.
After glancing at Situ Zhi, Jiang Beiran replied: "To solve this problem... it can't be trivial to me, it seems like it's too crazy to say, it's just moderately trivial."
"Um?"
Situ Zhi and another ninth-level formation master were obviously stunned for a moment after hearing this.
Even they dare not say that they will be able to repair the Yulu Formation. The reason is very simple. Firstly, this is a top-level formation with a very complex structure. Secondly, this is not a formation designed by them, so many ideas may be different.
In normal times, these would be minor problems, but now success or failure is related to the fate of the entire city, and even the entire country. Even if they are stronger than them, they still feel a little guilty.
You must know that once they set it up wrong, they will not be able to set up another Yulu Formation, at least not in a short period of time.
But the kid in front of me didn't know whether it was because he was a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, or he didn't consider the consequences of failure, so he could say it so lightly.
Compared to Xue Yongqing, Situ Zhi knew Jiang Beiran a little better. After all, the two had talked happily all afternoon before.
At the same time, during the last chat, Situ Zhi did express his feelings many times that this young and somewhat young formation master was indeed very powerful. He had his own unique understanding of many formation issues and even gave him a lot of inspiration.
So not only did Situ Zhi not look down on Jiang Beiran because of his age, but when he felt pressure this time, he immediately thought of this young man who had given many surprises. He felt that one more person would have more strength, and maybe he would be found
What new possibilities can there be?
But this is good, not only is it a new possibility, people will "solve" the matter directly as soon as they come.
This really made Situ Zhi a little confused.
Because he remembered that he was very humble when he chatted with this young man last time, including just now, but in the blink of an eye, he became arrogant.
Looking at the disbelieving eyes of Situ Zhi and another ninth-level formation master, Jiang Beiran smiled and said: "I believe that you two also have the ability to repair this Yulu Formation. I am just worried about the possibility of failure. But here, there is no such thing.
possible."
"Why?" Situ Zhi asked a little strangely.
After listening to this, Jiang Beiran pulled out a stack of golden talismans from the Qiankun Ring, "As long as you affix the Shining Stone Curse on all nodes, even if there are any mistakes in the process, the talisman can immediately replace the original nodes and continue to support the operation of the formation. There is no need at all.
I’m worried about fixing the problem.”
"The Shining Stone Curse..." Situ Zhi narrowed his eyes after hearing this. He didn't have much knowledge in spells, so he felt a little strange when he heard the Shining Stone Curse.
"The Shining Stone Curse you are talking about...could it be the Shining Stone Curse, one of the destiny spells?" Xue Yongqing said in surprise at this time.
"Oh?" Jiang Beiran raised his eyebrows, looked at Xue Yongqing and smiled: "The old man is very knowledgeable. Yes, it is one of the destiny curses."
Like all mystical arts, spells are of course divided into different levels.
However, unlike the talisman paper, which is yellow, blue, purple, silver, and gold from bottom to top, the grading of the talisman is a little more complicated.
There are many factions of talismans, such as Tianshi Curse, Earth Tribulation Curse, Renzong Curse, etc.
In the case of complex factions, it is difficult to clearly distinguish between high and low, but no matter which faction, they will use the most powerful spells in their faction as a signature.
For example, the Tianyun Curse that Xue Yongqing just mentioned is composed of the seven most powerful talismans in the Tianshi Curse.
The Shining Stone Curse is one of them.
As the most powerful talisman, it is naturally the most difficult to draw. However, Xue Yongqing had only heard of the Brilliant Stone Spell. As for how difficult it was specifically, he could not explain why.
But when the young man in front of him was told by Situ Zhi just now that although he was unknown, he definitely had the level of a ninth-grade formation mage, he didn't believe it. Now he still claims that he can draw fortune talismans!?
It's like taking advantage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage, and the tricks of charlatanism are used here.
"Master Yao and Master Jiang are studying very important issues inside. Immortal Gu Liang has said that no one is allowed to enter."
"Of course I know, but our issues are also very important. I must see Master Jiang now, and it won't take too long."
"Master Yao, please don't embarrass me..."
…
Just when Xue Yongqing was about to embarrass this ignorant young man, a quarrel suddenly came from the door.
Jiang Beiran, who recognized the voice as Yao Yichen, sighed and thought in his heart.
'Oh, you really have to rely on me to take care of you no matter where you go. I'm tired!'
After sighing, Jiang Beiran bowed his hands towards Situ Zhi and the others and said, "Excuse me."
After saying that, he walked towards the door.
Watching Jiang Beiran leave, Xue Yongqing and Situ Zhi looked at each other and followed. On the way, Xue Yongqing whispered: "Is this the young man you are very optimistic about?"
"Although I don't know why he is so arrogant today, I can guarantee you that he will never be inferior to you and me in terms of formation."
Xue Yongqing couldn't help but frown after hearing this. He and Situ Zhi had known each other for a long time and knew that Situ Zhi was upright. Even to his own students, he would never say nice words to comfort him just to encourage him.
Of course, the same is true for his old friend. It is common for the two of them to argue over formation issues.
Therefore, he did not doubt the authenticity of Situ Zhi's words at all.
But the more Situ Zhi praised Jiang Beiran, the more strange Xue Yongqing felt, and finally said: "Since he has made such achievements in formations, how can he be so good at a spell? This destiny spell is the most difficult of the Tianshi spells.
One of the seven talismans that I drew. This is what Mr. Wen told me. Anyone who can draw this talisman is an eighth-level talisman master at least."
After Xue Yongqing finished speaking, he glanced at Jiang Beiran in front of him, then looked back at Situ Zhi, "Do you think it's possible?"
Situ Zhi was also full of doubts at this moment, so he just shook his head and said nothing.
"boom."
At this time, Jiang Beiran opened the door. The guard standing at the door saluted immediately when he saw it: "Master Jiang, I didn't mean to make a noise..."
"Master Jiang!" At this time, Yao Yichen pushed away the guard and came to Jiang Beiran, "We have analyzed the elixir you just made, and we all agree that as long as the dose of Minglian is increased, it will be able to suppress it.
The effects of the miasma have become more obvious, what do you think?"
Jiang Beiran shook his head after hearing this: "Of course Minglian can purge fire and detoxify, but it is inherently incompatible with gentian. If the dose is larger, it will become a detoxification pill and lose its neutralizing effect."
"We have also thought about this, but as long as we control it properly, we will definitely..."
"No, I have already done experiments. I have controlled the amount of medicinal materials to the extreme. Unless you find other ways to solve the problem, what I have set now is the perfect ratio. You might as well think about what else.
Use better medicinal materials to replace it, so that it is possible to enhance the efficacy of the medicine."
"This...I know."
"Well, then you go back and wait. I will solve the problem here soon."
"Okay, then please ask Master Jiang to come back as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation." After Yao Yichen said that, he turned and left.
After closing the door again, Jiang Beiran turned around and saw two extremely shocked faces.
"I've kept you two waiting for a long time. Let's go back."
"Gudu..."
Xue Yongqing swallowed, his expression full of disbelief.
He and Yao Yichen have been friends for many years. They are both ninth-grade masters and live in the same state, so they have collaborated many times.
But it was precisely because he and Yao Yichen were familiar with each other that he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth at this moment.
This is Taishan Beidou in the world of pharmacists. Even if they are both ninth-grade pharmacists, other ninth-grade pharmacists will politely call him senior when they see him, and some will even call him teacher.
On the issue of elixirs, he was the authority of the entire Tong Kingdom, and no one could shake it.
But just now... this boy actually taught him like a disciple!?
At this moment, Xue Yongqing felt a little numb.
'Where on earth did this little monster escape...'
If Jiang Beiran's claim to know the destiny spell just now made him laughable, then Yao Yichen's attitude towards him just now made Xue Yongqing completely unable to understand the young man in front of him.
He and Yao Yichen have known each other for so long, but he has never seen Yao Yichen speak to others in such a polite... no, should be such a respectful manner. What does this mean? It means that this young man's pharmacist level must be ninth grade, and he is a ninth grade pharmacist.
A very powerful existence in Zhongdu.
But when he thought about Jiang Beiran's young face, Xue Yongqing couldn't figure it out.
'How is it possible that there are people in the world who have reached the ninth level in two profound arts, or even...three.'
Situ Zhi was also shocked at this moment. He had personally experienced Jiang Beiran's formation skills. He originally thought that this person could have such profound formation skills at such a young age.
Master Pin!?
At this moment, the scene of the last meeting with Jiang Beiran flashed through Situ Zhi's mind.
Compare the humility of this young man that day with his arrogance today.
Situ Zhi seemed to understand something for a moment. The last time Master Jiang was so polite to him, he was probably doing it to give face to the Saint of the Shi Clan and to win over him.
As soon as this idea came up, the more Situ Zhi thought about it, the more it made sense. He even felt that Jiang Beiran was actually modest in terms of the formation level, and he curbed his talents just to suit himself.
'Could it be that... I should actually feel honored?'
