In the evening, after finishing his meditation practice, Li Qingfeng put away his exercises, opened his eyes and got up, and went to have dinner.
Since everyone has different time to meditate and practice, Li Qingfeng and the other five people usually do not have dinner together. Li Jinhua will prepare it and put it in the kitchen for them to use.
After walking into the kitchen and having dinner, Li Qingfeng returned to his room. Their room is not small, with a length and width of several feet each. The cultivation issues of everyone have been taken into consideration when building it.
Back in the room, Li Qingfeng sat down cross-legged and took out the blank formation flag purchased from Da'anfang City from his storage bag.
Usually at this time after practicing, he would choose to practice some low-level spells. Although he knew these spells in his previous life, he was still a pill-forming monk at that time, and these low-level spells were rarely used on weekdays. And now that his cultivation level is low, he naturally needs to practice more.
Generally speaking, magical weapons are more powerful than spells and are relatively easier to control. Therefore, those who have some financial resources mostly rely on magical weapons, talismans, etc. But in his previous life, as a casual cultivator, he never had many magical tools and props, so he was well versed in all kinds of magic and spiritual arts, which was convenient for him in this life.
For example, his ice cone technique can now be used instantly. If an ordinary monk wants to be as good as him, it will take at least several months to practice.
But today, he does not plan to practice magic, but plans to draw the spirit gathering array.
Cultivation is the foundation of everything. Li Qingfeng could see clearly that when the time came to deal with the giant python, he and Li Qingqing would be the main ones. The other few people can probably only play a role in maintaining the formation and transmitting spiritual power. Therefore, he decided to set up a spirit-gathering array first. This array could gather spiritual energy and effectively speed up the cultivation speed of the people in the array.
Sitting cross-legged on the futon, Li Qingfeng picked up a blank formation flag, closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing.
After a while, he opened his eyes, held a magic formula in his hand, and his eyes glowed with purple light. As he muttered a few words, the flag slowly left his hand, spread out and floated in the air.
Li Qingfeng raised his right hand, light blue light stained his fingertips, Li Qingfeng looked serious, and pointed his fingers towards the unfolded formation flag.
As his fingers gradually came closer, the array of flags gradually began to tremble, looking a little unstable. Upon seeing this, Li Qingfeng opened his mouth and blew a breath. Although the formation flag was still trembling slightly, it had calmed down visibly.
When his finger was less than an inch away from the formation flag, the light blue light on his hand flourished, and the formation flag also glowed faintly. As he gets closer, the blue color on his fingertips gradually breaks away from his fingers and falls on the formation flag.
There were more and more blue light spots on the formation flag. As his fingertips came closer, the blue aura gradually formed a thin line between his fingertips and the formation flag. Finally, his finger landed on the formation flag. The formation flag shook violently and was immediately stabilized by Li Qingfeng.
The flag body of the formation flag was originally woven from silkworm silkworm, which was soft yet tough. But at this moment, Li Qingfeng pointed his finger on it, and the fingertips turned slightly white with force, but the flag surface did not move at all. It did not look like a layer of cloth at all, but more like a freshly split bluestone, rough and hard.
His fingers slid hard on the formation flag, carrying blue aura. Wherever his fingertips crossed, they left thin blue lines. These lines have different shapes, floating slightly on the formation flag, and gradually outline a complex pattern.
This is the spirit-attracting pattern, which can attract spirits and gather energy. It is a pattern unique to formations. The drawing of the formation flag is an extremely important step in refining the formation, and it is a great test of the formation master's skills.
Refining different formations requires drawing different formation patterns on the formation flag. This is not the same as the pattern engraved on the magic weapon when refining it, but there are similarities. Not only that, but the same goes for drawing talismans. You also need to draw different runes on the talisman paper to make different talismans.
It is said that the ancient human monks were inspired by the various patterns on the monsters' bodies, and then they invented the magic patterns that belong to humans, and gradually evolved into three methods of use, so that humans began to have the ability to fight against the monsters. This is why among the earliest four arts of cultivating immortals in the world of human beings, three of them require the use of magic patterns. As for beast control, it was a skill derived from human monks who tamed young monster beasts later. Because the skill of beast control shined brightly in the later human-monster wars, it was classified as one of the five arts of cultivating immortals. .
In the past two thousand years, the art of puppet making has gradually begun to appear in people's field of vision. As it gradually plays a role in the war against the demon clan, some people have proposed to treat puppet making as the sixth art of immortality. It's just that this skill is not very mature yet, and is regarded as a strange skill by the conservative monks from Tianxingzhou and Tianyun Land, so it has only been popular in Zhennan and Dongyi Land.
In his previous life, Li Qingfeng was a formation master and knew how to draw formation patterns. But something is also very strange. It is clear that the art of refining weapons and the art of formations have the same origin, but he made no achievements in refining weapons in his previous life.
As Li Qingfeng's fingers crossed the lines left before, all the lines on the formation flag merged into one, and finally turned into a formation pattern glowing with blue light. Li Qingfeng's hand clicked a little on it, and the blue light on the formation pattern dimmed and brightened, and finally disappeared into the formation flag. The formation flag also swayed slightly and fell down. Several dark formation patterns appeared on the originally blank flag.
Li Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. The first formation flag was finally drawn.
The spiritual power in the world is divided into five elements, and the spirit gathering formation also needs five formation flags as five formation eyes. Generally speaking, it is not necessary to use a formation method to set up an formation, as long as it is a spiritual thing, it can be used as an formation eye. However, the Spirit Gathering Formation requires the Five Elements Formation Flag, and Li Qingfeng could not produce five spiritual objects to set up the formation, so he simply used the Formation Flag as the spirit object to form the formation.
What he drew just now was the Water Spirit Formation Flag, with water diversion patterns painted on it, which can guide and gather water spirit energy. Next, he needs to draw the remaining formation flags with the four attributes of metal, wood, fire, and earth before he can start setting up the spirit gathering array.
Among them, because his main spiritual root is water, the Water Spirit Formation Flag is the easiest for him to draw - which is why he chose to draw the Water Spirit Formation Flag first. Next is gold, then wood, and the most difficult to draw are fire and earth.
In the great avenue of heaven and earth, the five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. Li Qingfeng's main spiritual root is water, and his secondary spiritual root is gold. Metal produces water, and water produces wood. Therefore, the wood attribute formation flag is relatively easy to draw. Earth overcomes water and fire overcomes metal, which exactly restrains Li Qingfeng's spiritual root attributes. Therefore, it is most difficult for him to draw a formation flag with fire and earth attributes.
Putting down the water spirit formation flag, Li Qingfeng exhaled a breath of turbid air and sat up cross-legged to meditate.
He will finish drawing all these formation flags in the next few days.
