This was not the first time that Hu Mingxian had seen a combination formation.
When he was first brought to the top of Kunlun Mountain by Jiang Nantian, Jiang Nantian once told him that hundreds of small formations constituted the "Qiankun Spirit Gathering Formation", "Eight Dragons Transforming Heaven Formation", and "Golden Book Soul Sealing Picture" The three formations, together with the restraints on the jade coffin body, totaled a thousand restraints, and combined with each other to form a set of circular formations.
To this day, when Hu Mingxian, who is a third-level formation master, recalls what he saw at the beginning, he will only feel more and more how complex the cyclic combination formation arranged by Jiang Nantian is, even if he is allowed to go into detail now. After careful consideration, I can't find a way to break the formation, and I can't even figure out the principle of the formation.
Not to mention the thousand restrictions, there are only hundreds of small formations combined into three large formations. I'm afraid it can only be understood from Jiang Nantian's level. Any one of these small formations, at the moment, may be It will be a huge killing array.
Compared with the complexity of this circular formation, the four formations carved by Shenwu Wenhong in the four jade pendants should be much simpler.
With this idea in mind, Hu Mingxian, who was sitting cross-legged, immersed his mind in the chaotic consciousness world, and manifested a formation imprint from his own soul seed.
When he gave the pink mandarin duck jade hairpin to Ying Sisi, Hu Mingxian imprinted all four formations into the soul. Now that his cultivation has reached the divine soul realm, the original villain of the soul has also degenerated into the seed of the soul. This The four formations were imprinted on the soul seed.
However, when he looked at the imprint of this formation manifested in front of him, Hu Mingxian realized how troublesome this formation was!
As a third-level formation master, whether it is the formations arranged by Hu Mingxian himself or the formations arranged by others, such as the "Emperor Formation·Four Elephants of All Heavens Demon Sealing Formation" left by Emperor Xuankong in the Demon Control Battlefield. ", the "Emperor Formation·Nine-Nine Ziwei Demon-Conquering Formation" left behind by Empress Ziwei in Shen Yuan's Secret Realm, and the eighty-one sub-formations, the spirit-summoning formation owned by Yin Changshou of the Dan Palace Branch in the Demon-Conquering Battlefield …
No matter how strong or weak these formations are, at least the appearance of the formation formed by the formations and the interconnection between each formation for the complete operation of the formation can be said to be a complete formation. It can be called a formation.
But the formation in front of me has none of the characteristics that a formation should have. There are three thousand formations, one in the east and one in the west. They are piled up here and clustered together. It is extremely messy, and among them are some More than 70% is still in a damaged state...
When he first felt the formations in the four jade pendants in Luoshui City at the request of Shenwu Wenhong, Hu Mingxian frowned. After thinking for a long time, he could only judge from these formations that they might be four formations. , nothing more.
Right now, if you want to repair this formation, you must first repair these damaged formation patterns, and then find the correct position where each formation pattern should be in the formation...
Not to mention anything else, just the workload of repairing the formation lines can make people's scalp numb.
"Fortunately, repairing the formation pattern can also exercise the power of the soul..."
With a wry smile, Hu Mingxian could only comfort himself in this way.
At the moment, Hu Mingxian stopped thinking too much, calmed down, and then devoted himself wholeheartedly to the formation pattern.
Although the previous soul has degenerated into the current divine soul seed, due to the concentration of the true divine soul seed and the extremely vast power of the divine soul, it is difficult for him to specifically check a certain formation pattern among the three thousand formation patterns. It's still very relaxing.
However, during the exploration of the power of the soul, these three thousand formation patterns are composed of two parts. The outer part of each formation pattern shows a series of vertical stripes. The shape, thickness and length of each vertical stripe are different. They are the same, and although they are vertical stripes, they are not straight. There are more or less bending curves, and these bending curves are also completely different.
The inside of the array pattern forms the outline of a phoenix because each vertical stripe is of different lengths. The specific characteristics of the phoenix are depicted by the array pattern, such as the crest, wings, and sharp claws. Among them, the crest is the It's simpler, but the more complicated ones are the patterns on the wings, and the distinct patterns on the claws that look like scales...
From the phoenix's beak, body movements, whether the wings are extended, and the extent of the extension,
Including the expressions reflected by the phoenix eyes, none of them are the same.
This is also the conclusion that Hu Mingxian came to after comparing those relatively complete formation patterns. Those damaged formation patterns, from the outside to the inside, either have missing or missing vertical stripes, or missing or missing phoenix patterns... Light Even the repair of a formation pattern can be called a huge project.
This is because Hu Mingxian doesn't know what these damaged formation patterns look like in their intact state. Therefore, in order to repair these formation patterns, it is not just about depicting the defective state, but also exploring it bit by bit. , so as to achieve the original appearance.
For example, the length and thickness of a vertical stripe in an array pattern may have grown a little longer or thicker during repairs. Individually, it may look fine, but when all repairs are completed, the array cannot operate. , then we have to go back, explore and adjust one by one, and finally re-draw it.
The same goes for the phoenix pattern inside...
This is just one of the damaged formation patterns. More than 70% of the three thousand formation patterns in the entire formation are damaged. If you want to completely repair each formation pattern and finally make the formation operate, there are The workload and difficulty are self-evident...
There are three more formations like this waiting for Hu Mingxian...
But having said that, Hu Mingxian actually likes to immerse himself in the process of repairing this kind of formation. Just like when he spent a full year in the virtual and real world, practicing the formation carving of various formations, among which The boredom it brings is something I have become accustomed to.
At that moment, Hu Mingxian imprinted a single broken formation pattern from the three thousand formation patterns, and amplified it with the power of his soul. Then he pointed like a sword, and concentrated the power of the formation on his fingertips, trying to It was carved on this formation pattern.
It is worth mentioning that the three thousand formation patterns in front of Hu Mingxian were all manifested by the power of his soul according to the formation patterns imprinted on the soul seed. It was not that he repaired the three thousand formation patterns in front of him, but just The formation was directly repaired.
To truly repair the formation, it is necessary to carve and repair the places where these formation patterns were born.
The so-called beginning of birth refers to the origin of the two formations.
One is the formation patterns carved by the formation master with the power of formation. They are mostly used on formation disks, formation platforms, jade, weapons and armor, elixirs and other carrying objects. It is the most common formation. Law.
Second, there are formations and formations that are born with a certain thing. For example, the bones left behind by some ancient monsters after their death may have innate formations. These formations may be a kind of treasure. , or a formation, etc.
For another example, a certain strange stone is born with formation patterns...
Although this kind of formation pattern derived from innate formations can be carved and imprinted by the formation master, the power that the formation should have must be weakened. Correspondingly, if this kind of innate formation formation pattern has If it is damaged, it must be carved and repaired on the object of its birth.
The formations in the four jade pendants that Shenwu Wenhong gave to Hu Mingxian were imprinted on their own, and were not the source of the true formations and patterns.
Of course, even if these broken formations are repaired now, Hu Mingxian can still use his own formation power to rearrange this formation and make it a formation that he has mastered.
At the moment, the damage to the formation pattern that Hu Mingxian alone imprinted is relatively minor.
There are seventy vertical stripes on the periphery of the array pattern, only five of which are damaged, and they are only breaks in the transverse section, not the lack of vertical sections. In this way, at least he does not have to worry about the thickness of the vertical stripes, only the thickness of the vertical stripes. You need to find out the pros and cons and then you can fix it.
Inside, the outline of the phoenix outlined by these seventy vertical stripes of different lengths shows the posture of the phoenix standing firmly with its feet folded, its head slightly raised, and the five damaged vertical stripes. It's on the back of Phoenix.
The entire phoenix pattern is relatively complete, with only the wrinkled stripes on one foot missing, which is relatively simple to repair.
Of course, this simplicity is only relative. Even if there is only one vertical stripe with the wrong length, the array pattern cannot be activated, so the damaged five
The vertical stripes must be of perfect length to perfectly reproduce the outline of the phoenix's back.
But even with this relative simplicity, Hu Mingxian has never been able to depict the correct part. Even after carving, the outline of the phoenix's back inside seems to fit perfectly, and the wrinkles on one foot also look very vivid, but This array pattern still looks dead and cannot be activated...
"Sure enough, it's not that simple..."
After trying for a whole day and failing to repair the formation pattern, Hu Mingxian took a short rest and stopped trying to repair the formation pattern forcefully.
If it was really that simple, with Shenwu Wenhong's connections in Zhongzhou, it would be impossible to find other formation masters to repair these four formations.
Of course, it is also possible that these four formations are of great importance. Unless it is a last resort, the Shenwu clan will not easily find outsiders. The reason why they dare to imprint these four formations and hand them over to him is probably because of Shen Wu. Because of Fang’s recommendation.
This is one of them.
Secondly, his cultivation level is not high. No matter what happens, he cannot threaten the Shenwu clan.
After resting, Hu Mingxian once again immersed his mind in the three thousand formation patterns.
But this time, he did not try to repair any of the formation patterns. Instead, he imprinted all three thousand formation patterns. For a time, the three thousand formation patterns filled the entire room.
Sitting cross-legged among these three thousand formations, Hu Mingxian carefully controlled the power of his soul to observe each formation, compare the vertical stripes in each formation, and observe each phoenix at the core of the interior. The charm of patterns!
