Chen Ping came out of Bailiye House and went to the leader's meeting hall, but the leader was out and could only leave a message. Then he returned to his house.
Study the secret technique of breaking formations.
The secret technique of breaking the formation is actually a small part of the engraving formation, or a simplified version of a certain link.
Simplified for ease of understanding.
Chen Ping has currently reached the 'Grandmaster' level with the 'Five Elements Psychedelic Array,' 'Spirit Gathering Array,' and 'Vientiane Formation.' The 'Five Elements Psychedelic Array,' is even closer to completion.
When he was practicing the formation, he not only set up the formation step by step, but also constantly revised the formation, discovered the imperfections in the original formation, and found the correct way to improve it.
Then achieve the transformation of the battle strategy.
Enhance the strength of the formation.
After so many years, Chen Ping's understanding of first-order formations has reached its peak.
He is already the top level one formation mage.
The fog formation was naturally beyond his ability to understand, but the secret technique of breaking the formation was just a simplified version of a certain small link, which in itself was not difficult for him.
He continued to study like this, and after seven days, he had thoroughly studied the secret technique of breaking the formation.
On the one hand, it benefits from his understanding of first-order formations that is different from ordinary people.
The more important reason is that the panel will constantly revise his understanding of the secret technique. Even if it is a secret technique designed for the demon clan, he often makes mistakes when he first understands it, but the next breath will give him the correct answer. The guidance made him realize where he went wrong and correct it.
There is not much content in the secret technique of breaking formation, so it can be understood quickly.
'call. ,
'There's no need to be anxious anymore, just wait until we get in touch with Wei Xun. ,
'Wei Xun, the leader, has not received any news yet. Then use this time to use the three formations of one liver and one liver. After all, the next thing you will come into contact with is the formations. There is no harm in brushing up on more knowledge in this area. ,
With this in mind, Chen Ping began to practice the Five Elements Psychedelic Formation.
The current level of this formation is 'Grandmaster: 998/1000,'.
Realizing Dzogchen is today.
The 'Spirit Gathering Array' and 'Wanxiang Array' are 'Grandmaster: 927/1000' and 'Grandmaster: 722/1000' respectively.
The progress is not too fast.
This is mainly because after entering Luoyue City, the survival crisis has greatly increased. I spend very little energy on formations and only refresh them occasionally.
Otherwise, it would not be that he only learned three first-order formations after so many years of foundation building.
Moreover, after entering Luoyue City, it was impossible to purchase formation equipment, so there was no chance to practice more second-level formations.
He didn't think so much at the moment.
Concentrate on practicing the 'Five Elements Psychedelic Formation'.
After reaching the 'Expert' level, every step of practice will be the improvement of the original formation.
After completing these actions, in fact, the first-level formation is no longer just the first-level formation.
The so-called distinction between first-order and second-order... is mainly determined by the difference in difficulty of formation arrangement, the difference in complexity of the formation, and the difference in the effect of trapping the enemy.
The formation is usually named by the creator of the formation, and is graded by subsequent practitioners based on its overall performance.
But as long as the flaws of the original formation can be improved and more factors added, the complexity of the formation can be continuously improved, its enemy-trapping effect can be improved, and the formation can escape from its original level.
It is possible to change from first level to second level.
Of course, the premise is that it must be improved well.
Without full confidence, if you make blind changes, you may only leave bigger loopholes and flaws, allowing the formation to be broken with one blow, which becomes an unnecessary extra step.
Chen Ping has no such concerns.
His improvements are not self-explored improvements, but under the guidance of the 'panel', not just fixing defects, but adding more valuable factors.
The process is perfect.
in short.
'Expert, before the level, the process of gaining proficiency in the formation is actually a replica of the formation. It is repeated within the rules and regulations of the formation creator to understand the essence and continuously improve one's understanding of the formation. degree.
'Expert, after the level, it is about improving the formation, discovering the shortcomings of the original creator, stepping out of the box, removing the dross, retaining the essence, and forming a more powerful formation.
At this moment, Chen Ping continued to improve his proficiency.
'The five elements have no formal shape. They are attached to the heaven and earth, and become virtual shapes, and their meanings become increasingly mysterious. The five elements stir things up, and all things surround them, so the enemy is trapped in illusion. ,
'The Five Elements Psychedelic Array emphasizes the mutual support and restraint of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. If the lines of the gold and wood array change from intersecting to vertical intersecting, and form a line with the sky, what if you want to be sleepy at the beginning and end? ,
'Let's try...,
Chen Ping continued to perfect the Five Elements Psychedelic Formation according to the guidance from the underworld.
Continuously enhance its psychedelic effect...
'...,
Late at night, three hours later.
[Five Elements Psychedelic Array: Perfection. 】
'It's finally complete. ,
'I don't know how effective it will be. I'll give Yun Haitang a try next time and see how long it takes for her to get out of my little world. ,
'As for Yu Lingchun, forget it about that rookie. ,
...
The next day.
Received news from Ning Xiaoqi that Wei Xun had returned from the Mist Realm and convened everyone again to discuss the formation.
Chen Ping knew that the moment of decisive battle had arrived.
He thought for a while, then took down the five elements psychedelic array, the nine palaces psychedelic array, and the all things array in the house and took them with him.
He told Yun Haitang and Yu Lingchun not to go out and wait for him in the house.
Then go out to Lingxiao Sect.
This time, the team is still composed of eight people, including Chen Ping. They are also the most trustworthy monks of Lingxiao Sect at present. They are the only eight monks who know that Lingxiao Sect is seizing the time to find the formation.
In order to ensure the confidentiality of this mission, the six monks who participated in the search for the formation eye all swore in front of Wei Xun with their Taoist hearts and vowed never to tell anyone about this matter.
This is to ensure the confidentiality of the event.
In the world of spiritual practice, monks do not swear by Taoism easily. Once you make an oath, you must strictly abide by it. No one wants to make fun of their Taoist mind.
This is also the reason why Chen Ping is willing to participate in the eight-person discussion with his true identity.
Among these eight monks, two golden elixirs need not be said much. Among the remaining monks, except for Ning Xiaoqi who is a contact person and Chen Ping who is an information provider, the remaining four foundation builders are all outstanding formation mages.
At least a second-level array mage.
To find the formation eye, you have to be an formation mage.
In other words, if you are not an array mage, you may not be able to sense that the array eye is there if you actually go to the place where the array eye is.
When Chen Ping was approaching the meeting hall, he met Feng Yu who also came to attend the meeting. Feng Yu builds the ninth level of the foundation and has good cultivation. He is the direct disciple of the former head and a loyal disciple of Lingxiao Sect.
He is also the senior brother of Lingxiao Sect.
Seeing Chen Ping, Feng Yu shrugged and smiled bitterly, indicating that it was another day of nothing.
"Does Fellow Daoist Chen know the formation?" Feng Yu asked casually.
Chen Ping nodded:
"Know a little bit and know a few first-order formations."
"What about the second-order formation?" Feng Yu asked again.
"I haven't had time to practice the second-level formation yet. After Lingxiao Sect suffered a calamity, I have no chance to practice it." Chen Ping said with a bitter smile.
Feng Yu smiled and expressed understanding.
Then he regretted and said:
"There are quite a few trustworthy comrades in the Lingxiao Sect, but apart from the leader and Elder Pan, only four people including me were involved in the search for the Formation Eye this time, and only four people including me knew about it. The reason is that I want to To find this formation eye, you have to be a second-level formation mage, and even second-level formation mages are a bit weak."
"It's a pity. If Fellow Daoist Chen is also a second-level formation mage, we can use one more helper. Damn the magic cultivator, this fog formation is too profound and difficult to deal with."
As if worried that Chen Ping was looking down on him, Feng Yu added:
"When you, Daoyou Chen, become a second-level formation master, you will know how difficult it is to find formation eyes for formations that are above your own level. It has nothing to do with our ability or attitude. It is really because we are not a level master of the formation."
"Chen Daoyou, tell me, if you were asked to look for the formation eyes, would you be able to find them? It's impossible for a first-order formation mage, that's why. But we won't give up hope, at least we can collect more valuable ones. Give the information to the leader and Elder Pan so that they can save energy and make targeted decisions."
"..."
Feng Yu talked eloquently, and all he mentioned were stories about finding an advantage in the past few months, not only his own, but also the situations of several other fellow disciples.
Thousands of words can be condensed into one sentence, and the subtext is - it's hard to find the formation, it's not because they are too good at it.
Chen Ping smiled and said:
"A few days ago, I was lucky enough to find the center of the formation. This time, I only need to wait for the master's arrangement before I can start the action to break the formation."
Feng Yu nodded and continued walking, but when he realized what Chen Ping said, he was stunned:
"What, Fellow Daoist Chen found it?"
His steps stopped.
"That's true. It's a long story. Let's talk about it in person." Chen Pingfeng said calmly and continued to go to the meeting hall.
It’s not that I’m trying to get away with it, but the discussion is about to begin and there’s no need to repeat it twice.
Feng Yu was not so calm and was still stunned.
I had some indigestion from Chen Ping's words.
"Senior Brother Feng, why are you standing here? Go in." Ning Xiaoqi came over at some point.
Feng Yu came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly:
"No, it's nothing, haha."
He ignored Ning Xiaoqi, quickly caught up with Chen Ping, and said softly:
"Fellow Daoist Chen, don't be joking. Have you really found the center of the fog formation?"
Seeing Chen Ping nod seriously, Feng Yu knew that Chen Ping might be telling the truth. There was no reason for Chen Ping to make such a big joke at this juncture.
It's just that he didn't understand what went wrong. He has practiced formations for decades and has accumulated countless amounts of knowledge and cognitive views on formations.
But now, he felt that his cognitive outlook had been greatly impacted.
The edifice originally constructed is crumbling.
Chen Ping and Feng Yu entered the meeting hall together and sat down on the seats that had been arranged. Wei Xun hasn't come yet, and a few other monks haven't come either.
Everyone is still chatting.
Chen Ping occasionally chatted with other fellow Taoists in the air, and inadvertently discovered that Feng Yu, who had always talked a lot, was sitting quietly on his seat, saying nothing, and his eyes were a little dull.
…Isn’t this guy like that?
Too much impact?
Chen Ping turned slightly sideways and said softly:
"Senior Brother Feng, what's wrong?"
"Huh?" Feng Yu came back to his senses and said with a smile:
"It's nothing, haha, it's nothing."
In addition to being excited, he was also feeling embarrassed... He had been hinting to Chen Ping along the way that it was difficult to find a formation.
There are a series of things that need to be done to break the formation through the formation eye, such as secret techniques and auxiliary materials, many of which are handled by Chen Ping alone.
The only thing they have to do is find the formation.
That's it, so many of them got nothing.
It was precisely for this reason that he had mentioned in front of Chen Ping intentionally or unintentionally that it was difficult to find an opponent across levels, emphasizing that it was not because they were incompetent, so as not to be looked down upon by Chen Ping.
He also said that it would be impossible for a first-level formation mage to find the formation eye.
Thinking about it now makes me blush.
"Is Chen Daoyou really just a first-order formation mage?" Feng Yu turned to the side and asked in a low voice unwillingly.
"Yes." Chen Ping was speechless.
…This guy is so nervous.
After receiving this reply, Feng Yu straightened his body, sat upright in his seat, and said nothing again.
After a while, Feng Yu slowly turned sideways again, looked around, and asked in a low voice:
"Fellow Daoist Chen, have you never practiced the second-level formation before?"
After receiving the exact answer, he nodded matter-of-factly, and like a spring-loaded instrument, he slowly straightened his body and sat down on his seat without saying a word.
After a while, Feng Yu once again showed a set of skillful movements: turning slightly sideways, turning his head and looking around, asking questions in a low voice, slowly rebounding after receiving the exact answer, sitting upright, and saying nothing...
...There won’t be any problems with Feng Yu, right?
Chen Ping secretly glanced at Feng Yu, was it so exciting? I didn't spend much effort, and I found the formation so easily.
What's so magical about it?
Really!
Chen Ping felt that it was necessary to comfort Feng Yu, so before Feng Yu had the tendency to turn sideways, he took a step towards Feng Yu and turned slightly sideways:
"Senior Brother Feng, there is no need to be surprised. Senior Brother Feng and others are professional formation masters and do professional things. I am different. I just happened to find it after wandering around so casually. It is purely luck. "
Feng Yu felt much relieved when he heard the first half of Chen Ping's comforting words.
But when I heard the last sentence, I suddenly felt short of breath.
this…
…Is this human talk?
We monks have been searching hard for several years, rummaged through Qingyun Territory, and taken countless risks, but we still couldn't find the formation. As a result, you said that you just wandered around and found it...
Well, I was comforted.
"Senior brother, why do you look wrong? Did you get distracted in your practice?" Ning Xiaoqi passed by at some point and saw that Feng Yu looked wrong, so she asked.
Feng Yu suddenly felt his chest tightening even more... This, this damn girl, senior brother, I am over a hundred years old, how can I practice martial arts and cha?
If it weren't for the fact that you are a popular person in front of the leader, I would have to teach you a lesson.
"Go, go, don't hang around in front of your senior brother and me. Go and call the old man out. Really, he is a direct disciple, and he has no eyesight at all." Feng Yu scolded.
Ning Xiaoqi was speechless, wondering what happened to this senior brother today, as if he was possessed.
It wasn't like this before.
So, she said:
"I'm not showing off in front of you. I'm looking for Fellow Daoist Chen."
Feng Yu found it more difficult to breathe.
Everyone has learned to make people angry.
"..."
Ning Xiaoqi came here to introduce Chen Ping to the four foundation builders who were attending the meeting. During the last meeting, she saw that Chen Ping rarely spoke and just listened most of the time.
Apparently he wasn't very familiar with a few of his colleagues.
The current few people are the most trustworthy people in Lingxiao Sect, and they all work together. She feels it is necessary to introduce Chen Ping to the other people.
In order to prevent Chen Ping from being left in the dark again this time.
Among the four foundations, two are on the ninth floor, one is Feng Yu, and the other is Jian Rufeng, a monk at the level of master-uncle and over two hundred years old.
In addition, there is an eighth-level foundation builder named Li Feiyu, who is younger. A seventh-level foundation builder named An Baishuang is a female cultivator.
Several of them are the pillars of Lingxiao Sect.
"Uncle Jian has a bad temper, but he is upright and trustworthy. Li Feiyu is a talkative person and likes to gossip, but he shares the honor of Lingxiao Sect and has no problem in the face of the principles of right and wrong. An Baishuang talks less, but does things well She is very serious, and the tasks she takes over are very reassuring..." Covered by a mute note, Ning Xiaoqi softly introduced the situation of these people.
"..."
Chen Ping silently wrote down the character traits of these people. However, he is not a sociable person and does not intend to spend too much time on socializing.
There is not even enough time to devote to practice.
…
the other side.
After Feng Yu calmed down and recovered from the shock, what was left was joy.
After several years of hard work, it’s finally time to reap the rewards.
What's the point of being embarrassed?
But then he thought, I can't be embarrassed alone. If I want to be embarrassed, let's be embarrassed together. At least Li Feiyu and others must be dragged into the water.
Thinking of this, Feng Yu saw that Ning Xiaoqi had left, and once again used a familiar movement and whispered:
"In the secular world, ordinary people like to see rainbows the most. Do you know why, Fellow Daoist Chen?"
"Why?" Chen Ping didn't know why.
Feng Yu said seriously:
"Every time a rainbow appears, its brilliant colors mean good luck to ordinary people and are a sign of a good harvest in the coming year. Not only ordinary people, but even practitioners regard it as a sign of good luck and practice certain techniques. The success rate of the method is related.”
"The real reason for all this is just that the rainbow often appears after the rain. The season of heavy rain often makes people feel depressed and depressed. Many monks even get emotional about the scene, which disrupts their state of mind. But as soon as the rainbow appears, , which means that the long rainy season is over, and bad moods will naturally drift with the wind. Therefore, Tianhong can be so respected..."
Chen Ping heard this inexplicably:
"What exactly does Feng Senior Brother mean?"
Feng Yu chuckled and grinned:
"I mean, we monks can only feel great joy when we hear good news again after going through a downturn."
"Fellow Daoist Chen will not be in a hurry to explain the matter of the formation as soon as he comes. He will wait for fellow daoists to speak first and then speak. Only in this way can it bring great joy to fellow daoists. This is...a good thing."
Chen Ping:......
This letter looks serious, but in fact it is very sinister.
Not a good person.
Chen Ping thought that this matter should be kept low-key, with nothing to take credit for, talk less about the process of finding the formation, and blame everything on luck.
You can even push it to Bai Linye behind you.
Whether Wei Xun believes it or not is another matter.
While talking, the leader Wei Xun appeared.
