Xu Yuxiu spent more than a month in this beautiful place.
Finally, I have thoroughly understood the basic knowledge about formations in "Annotations on Formations".
Her eyes also began to aim at the primary formation.
By the calm lake, under a tree.
Xu Yuxiu held the "Annotations on Formation" and flipped through it.
She frowned slightly, as if she was hesitating or thinking about something.
"Which elementary formation should I learn first?"
After a while, she opened her eyebrows and locked her eyes on a page in the book.
"The Lost Formation, let's learn this first."
The Mystical Formation is a psychedelic formation. It does not require tracing the supply lines of spiritual energy or materials for setting up the formation. It can only be arranged based on the terrain.
And the place she was in now could be used to practice setting up the tracking array.
Xu Yuxiu stood up and began to carefully observe the terrain here.
The psychedelic formation pays great attention to details and emphasizes on confusing the real with the fake.
Therefore, we must observe the details of the terrain very carefully.
She first walked around the lake, and then climbed a mountain. Standing on the mountain and looking down, she could get an overview of the whole situation.
Xu Yuxiu's eyes gradually lit up with aura.
This is a spell that array masters must know, spiritual eyes.
It is not difficult to learn the spiritual eye. She also learned this spell by the way when she was studying the formation.
Now is the time to try the magic of this spiritual eye.
After opening his spiritual eyes, Xu Yuxiu could see more details.
Looking at the overall situation, she could see a striped road, intertwined among the mountains, forests and lakes.
It looks like a mess, but if you look closely, you can still see some rhythm in it.
After observing for about a quarter of an hour, Xu Yuxiu took out a pen and paper and began to draw on it.
What she painted was not the landscape, but the striped road.
Moreover, she cleverly added nodes between the lines while drawing.
That is this place, the intersection of mountain terrain trends. Only by understanding these intersection nodes can we use these nodes to arrange formations.
This is the advantage of the formation.
There is no need for advanced cultivation in the early stage. Just like in the enlightenment stage, even if you only have cultivation in the Qi refining stage, you can still arrange advanced formations.
But he couldn't set up a large formation. This was the limitation of his cultivation.
This place is simply not big, just a few hundred meters in diameter.
Set against the mirror-like lake water, it is like a mirror, and the surrounding mountains and forests are all decorations on the lake surface.
"This place looks so much like a mirror, why not call it 'Mirror Lake'."
The light in Xu Yuxiu's eyes faded, she clapped her hands, took the drawn grain trend chart, and went down the mountain.
After returning to the cave, she spread out the pattern chart and began to deduce the specific formation positions.
"This intersection is unstable and changes frequently, so it is not suitable to be a node..."
"The terrain here is too open. Once the formation fluctuates, it is very easy to be seen through. It needs to be improved..."
It took several hours to outline and select, and it wasn't until dark that she finished marking the nodes of the array.
It also identifies some areas of terrain that need improvement.
Xu Yuxiu put away the pen and picked up the formation diagram full of marks, with uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.
Maybe it was because I relaxed my mind and lost the concentration before.
She hadn't been excited for long when she felt tired and hungry.
Deducing formations is extremely energy-consuming.
Xu Yuxiu also didn't expect that the first time he deduced the basic formation would make him so exhausted.
"So tired, so hungry..."
She took out a Bigu Pill from her storage bag and ate one. Although her hunger subsided immediately, her fatigue was still there.
"Forget it, let's rest first."
After a night of silence, Xu Yuxiu finally regained his energy and walked out of the cave in the early morning of the next day.
She unfolded the completed formation diagram and took another look at it. After confirming that it was correct, she went straight to a terrain intersection and couldn't wait to start trying.
The complete lost formation has twenty-two nodes.
On the formation diagram, she only drew twelve formation nodes, which was the limit of what she could do.
The effect of the tracking array arranged in this way will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.
But this was only her first attempt, so she had to practice her skills first.
Xu Yuxiu came to the first terrain intersection, looked around, and after confirming that there was no misunderstanding, he began to gather spiritual power and carve formation patterns on the ground.
Although the formation pattern of the primary formation is more complicated than the basic formation, it is not much more complicated.
Xu Yuxiu confidently began to carve formation patterns at the intersection of the terrain.
However, not long after she took action, she suddenly stopped her hand and some of the formation patterns she carved immediately disappeared.
Her first attempt ended in failure.
"what happened?"
Xu Yuxiu put away her confidence and her expression became serious.
"You clearly painted it well just now, but why does your spiritual power suddenly seem to be blocked?"
She pondered for a moment, but couldn't find the answer, so she decided to try again.
On the second try, just when she had just carved the formation pattern to the previous third, the feeling suddenly came over her again.
Her hand paused again, and all the carved formations spread out.
Two consecutive failures made her look serious.
Xu Yuxiu thought for a while, but still couldn't find the answer.
So, she took out the "Commentary on Formation" and read it carefully.
After some searching, she finally found the answer in the opening chapter.
"So this is where the problem lies!"
The formation master mentioned at the beginning arranges formations based on the general trend of heaven and earth.
And Yu Chengdao mentioned it in the annotation of "General Trend".
Wherever the various lines intersect, they will repel foreign objects, and the formation lines are also counted as foreign objects.
As for the solution, Yu Chengdao also mentioned it.
That is to use one's own cultivation to suppress the repulsive force of the intersection.
After getting the solution, Xu Yuxiu closed the book and started carving the formation pattern again.
The cultivation of the third level of Qi Refining was released, and a wave of spiritual pressure spread from her body.
Xu Yuxiu raised his hand, gathered spiritual power on his fingertips, and began to carve formation patterns again.
This time she was particularly careful in carving. As the formations were drawn one by one to the intersection, she also felt the existence of the repulsive force.
Fortunately, her cultivation was enough to suppress the repulsive force of this node. This time, there was no pause in the characterization, and it was completed in one go.
As her last formation pattern fell, the formation node took shape instantly.
Xu Yuxiu breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the formation nodes taking shape.
"It actually consumed 10% of my spiritual power. This is the first formation node. There is still terrain to be transformed later..."
For a moment, she felt stressed.
After resting for a while, she headed straight to the next meeting point.
Next, she did the same thing.
It took nearly two days to complete all the remaining formation nodes.
The transformed terrain has also been transformed.
When everything is ready.
Xu Yuxiu stood by Jinghu Lake, made a gesture and pointed to the sky: "Array up!"
There was a change of light and shadow, and then it returned to normal.
If anyone enters here again at this time, they will most likely get lost.
