"Fellow Taoist, please think clearly. Apart from being able to stimulate, this formation is faulty. If you buy it, this spiritual stone will not be returned." The ugly man was afraid that Jiang Chen would regret it, so he couldn't help but stepped forward to dissuade her. .
Faced with these words, Jiang Chen felt like laughing in his heart. Why did he come to the young man to withdraw the spirit stone, but told Jiang Chen that he could not withdraw. However, he did not express it at this time, and only said firmly: "This formation Although it’s unbearable, I still have some uses for it, thank you fellow Taoist for reminding me.”
"Okay, let's go!" The ugly man walked up to the young man, grabbed the spirit stone in his hand, and walked straight forward.
The people who were preparing to watch the show saw that the ugly man had left and no longer stayed. Everyone quietly muttered a few words and left in scattered pieces.
Just when Jiang Chen was about to step forward to talk to the young man, several more people ran over and immediately surrounded the young man. Before Jiang Chen could react, he saw the young man bowing and apologizing to the newcomers one by one. .
It turned out that there was another problem with the formation he refined, and this time he injured one of the opponent's brothers. Fortunately, the problem was not serious, but at this time, he grabbed the young man and asked him to pay a thousand spiritual stones.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen shook his head. He really didn't know what to say. Just when he was about to walk over to rescue him, the young man suddenly rushed out and said to Jiang Chen: "Fellow Taoist, can... can you If you want to help me again, I still have a few formations at home, and I am willing to package them up and sell them to fellow Taoists."
"I don't even know what the formation is, how can I make a deal easily? Besides, the spirit stone you are holding was blown by the strong wind?" Jiang Chen made a pretense and was about to leave, but the young man quickly caught up with Jiang Chen. , whispered a few words in his ear, Jiang Chen squinted his eyes and looked unbelievable, then pretended to be embarrassed and took out some spiritual stones from the storage bag and handed them to him.
When the young man saw the spirit stone, he took it and quickly dismissed those people, then walked to Jiang Chen coyly.
He said with some embarrassment: "If I don't have any Taoist friends today, I don't know what I will do to these people."
Looking at the young man in front of him who seemed to be about the same age as himself, Jiang Chen was speechless. Instead, he looked at his clothes. He looked a little downcast, but there was something noble in his brows.
Jiang Chen raised his hand and pointed at his stall without saying a word.
Seeing this, the young man looked back in confusion, then smiled at Jiang Chen, and then walked in the direction Jiang Chen pointed, tidying up his stall.
It turned out that the few people just now were a little angry and smashed some of the young man's things. Fortunately, they were all worthless things, so he didn't pay much attention to them. After cleaning up, he found a stool and said apologetically Passed it to Jiang Chen.
Then he said in a low tone: "To be honest with you, fellow Taoist, these things are already my entire net worth. I just mentioned that there are several formations at home that are also used to deceive fellow daoist. I will admit it if you want to fight or kill me, fellow daoist." "
"I don't dare to hit you, let alone kill you. If I hurt you, who will help me repair my improved version of the positive and negative two-dimensional forbidden formation?" Jiang Chen sat on the stool and chuckled twice.
"Fellow Taoist, don't you blame me for deceiving you?" The young man was surprised by Jiang Chen's generosity. This was not like the behavior of monks, who always punished others with contempt.
"To be honest, I'm not even interested in your other formations. If you hadn't just said that you could improve the positive and negative two-dimensional forbidden formation for me and achieve half the power of the original formation, I wouldn't have helped you so easily." Jiang Chen's eyes widened and he stared at the expression on the young man's face.
He was slightly startled, and then sighed helplessly.
"Fellow Taoist, have you ever thought about what it means if such a large formation is improved to half its power?" The young man slowly asked Jiang Chen.
Shocked by his sudden question, Jiang Chen thought about it seriously and said, "It means that he can withstand the attacks of Nascent Soul Stage monks."
"It means it will cost a huge price!" The young man interrupted before Jiang Chen could finish speaking.
Unexpectedly, the young man would say this. Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud.
The young man who didn't understand why he thought Jiang Chen didn't know what he meant by the huge price, continued to explain to him: "Just the basic materials required for the formation are enough to cost hundreds of thousands. Excluding the failure of refining, the engraving of the formation plates, formation flags, large formation runes, etc. will take an unknown amount of time. Even if the subsequent work can be completed, the materials alone are not something ordinary people can bear. If Plus the experimental stuff, the cost is even more expensive.”
"What if I say I can bear the cost? How sure are you?" Jiang Chen didn't take it seriously and expressed his thoughts.
"If there is a large amount of materials, half of the power is hard to say, but 30% is always available, which is enough to resist the alchemy monks." The young man's eyes suddenly lit up, as if Jiang Chen's words gave him great confidence.
Jiang Chen nodded. This was what he wanted. If the young man was told with his current cultivation level that he could refine a formation that could withstand the Nascent Soul Stage, he would not really believe it. Danqi's formation still has a great chance.
"You only need to tell me what materials you need. The market is right here. I will buy them right away. But I only have one request, that is, in the following days, you must devote yourself to refining the formation for me. Those spiritual stones will be Think of it as an upfront reward for you.”
Jiang Chen showed off his strength slightly. Although the spiritual pressure he emitted only made the young man feel a little uncomfortable, it was enough to let him know his strength.
If it weren't for the young man's misunderstanding, how could a formation master be reduced to the point where he was at his mercy? However, Jiang Chen didn't just force him. After raising the conditions, he patiently comforted him and said, "I see that your formation master is quite good at the formation." You are obsessed with it, and the things you refine are quite exquisite. The reason why there are a lot of problems is because the materials you use are extremely cheap. Those people don’t know real gold, and they actually call you a useless formation master. If I am willing to sponsor you What do you think of the research formation?"
The young man suddenly raised his head and looked into Jiang Chen's eyes in disbelief. He saw that his face looked sincere and did not look like he was lying. He hurriedly asked: "Do you really mean what you said, fellow Taoist?"
After a second thought, I felt that there is no such benefit from the sky in the world of cultivation. I immediately became vigilant and asked tentatively: "Fellow Taoist wants to help me refine the formation for no reason. Don't you know that the formation consumes a lot of money?" It’s not something ordinary people can bear, I don’t know what you want from me.”
Jiang Chen naturally expected the young man's question. He stood up and patted the young man's shoulder and said, "Because I understand the formation and know that your inheritance is definitely not simple. I also believe that you can refine an improved version for me." For the positive and negative forbidden formations, I have only one request, and that is that any new formations that are successfully refined in the future must be refined for me first."
He had stayed in the World Pearl for a long time, and he was always worried about the destruction of the two formations he had bought. In addition, his cultivation was stagnant at the state of perfect Qi refining, and it was difficult to make any progress, so he studied it by himself. I have learned about formations for a long time, and the more I understand, the more I realize that this path is not simple. Those who use formations to enter Taoism can even use the sky as formations, but if necessary, everything in the world can become part of the formations.
This is why he can now see at a glance why the formations refined by the young people are extraordinary. Seeing the young man in such a state of desolation, he first wanted to cherish his talent, and secondly, he also wanted to see what kind of formation he could refine.
"But having said that, can your set of positive and negative two-meter forbidden formation weapons really be improved to more than 30% power?"
"Definitely! I'm familiar with this formation and have refined it many times. If the materials are complete, there won't be any big problem in improving this set of formation tools!" Seeing Jiang Chen ask this question, the young man knew that the other party would definitely It was because he cared so much about the Forbidden Formation of Positive and Negative Instruments that he treated himself so favorably, and he immediately patted his chest and promised.
Then the young man said nothing more, but took out an old piece of silk from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Chen.
"This is the prototype of the formation that I have deduced countless times. There are also the required materials on the side. Please take a look at it, fellow Taoist."
When Jiang Chen saw it, his face lit up, and he hurriedly took it with both hands. He knew that this was the most precious thing for a young man, and it could be said to be worth a thousand pieces of gold.
At that moment, he couldn't help but take a higher look at the young man, then cast his gaze on the silk and stared at it blankly for a long time.
Time passed quietly, and Jiang Chen said slowly: "Wonderful, wonderful, really exquisite. Fellow Taoist is really a genius in formation. Please forgive me for being rude."
Jiang Chen handed the silk back with both hands and was greatly surprised by the content of the formation described in it. He originally thought that the young man's formation attainments were good, but he did not expect that it was already so advanced. He was already familiar with the positive and negative two-dimensional forbidden formation. It cannot be said in terms of improvements, but innovations based on new approaches.
It is said that two rituals give rise to four images, and four elephants give birth to the Eight Diagrams. This is the core essence of the positive and negative two rituals. However, young people actually use the Eight Diagrams Formation as the core to infer the two rituals, and then use magnetic force to promote the evolution of the four phenomena to achieve the positive and negative. Liang Yi saw Jiang Chen's heart burning up. If it could be realized, the power would not be weaker than the original magic circle. He couldn't help but be surprised by this young man's unbridled creativity.
"This improved version of the formation requires eighteen formation disks and thirty-six formation flags. It is the formation magic weapon required for the simplified version of the positive and negative two-meter forbidden formation. Just follow the method deduced on this silk to refine it. , and then arrange them exactly according to the directions, and the formation can be effective immediately. The various materials listed next to the silk are saved after saving, and they must be prepared after reducing and reducing. There are hundreds of kinds of materials. I originally thought of refining some simple formations in exchange for some spiritual stones to refine this formation, but because of saving materials, it was difficult for those formations to operate well. Only then did the I feel ashamed about the situation." The young man explained in detail, and also told Jiang Chen the reason why.
After hearing these words, Jiang Chen felt very fond of this young man! Another thought suddenly appeared in my mind!
After hesitating for a moment, he put all the young man's things on the ground into the storage bag.
Jiang Chen's sudden and abnormal behavior made the young man confused and a little at a loss.
"Jiang Chen, I just heard those people talking about your name. Fellow Taoist should be called Qingyang, right?" Jiang Chen changed his initial coldness and became kind to the young man.
"My name is Lu Qingyang. I wonder why this is happening?" The young man hesitated and pointed to the ground, as if to express why Jiang Chen had taken away his things. He didn't know what the purpose was.
"Haha, I didn't expect that by accident today, I would meet a genius in formations. You are so talented in formations, why are you so embarrassed? Logically speaking, as an formation master, you will be welcomed by others no matter where you go. "Jiang Chen was a little puzzled, wondering why Qingyang would end up like this.
"It's all God's will. Although I have some talent in formations, because I was born with the golden crow's unique meridians, I need more than a hundred years of ice-attribute elixir to suppress the fire poison in my meridians every once in a while. Now my cultivation has stopped at The perfect Qi refining is due to the influence of this Golden Crow Juemai. No matter how high your cultivation level is, ordinary elixirs cannot suppress the fire poison in the body. I used to work in Jindian Taicheng, and the commander of Taicheng promised me to provide him with one every six months. An elixir with ice properties, but after the new commander took office a few years ago, he withdrew from his job because he had little knowledge of formations and was not worthy of the treatment. Because of this, he lost his enshrinement and slowly drifted to this place in order to survive. Here, we are even more penniless now, alas!" Lu Qingyang looked a little depressed and told about his unbearable past.
Jiang Chen's face darkened when he heard the Golden Crow Jue Meridian, and he couldn't help but feel sad for the young man. This Golden Crow Jue Meridian is one of the three major difficulties that monks with spiritual roots are most afraid of encountering. One is the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, and the other is the Cultivation Tribulation (i.e. Life is short, but there is little chance of breaking through the bottleneck), the third one is born with a dead pulse. This Golden Crow Jue Meridian is one of them. Just like the Golden Crow sitting in Dantian, the body is naturally filled with fire spiritual power. Over time, it accumulates in the meridians to form fire poison. If it is not practiced and refined, it will explode in the body, but if you want to refine it, You can only practice the fire technique. After practicing it, it will increase the fire poison, but it will only delay it for a few more days, so it is called the Golden Crow Absolute Meridian.
This is an unsolvable problem in the cultivation world, unless a monk in the transformation stage takes action and uses the power of heaven and earth to resolve the fire poison in the meridians in his body and open up his body's meridians. In this way, not only can the fire spiritual power accumulated for many years be refined, With a great improvement in cultivation, one can even transform into the body of the Golden Crow, and one can practice thousands of miles with each passing day. But this is almost impossible, especially since there have been no god-transforming monks in this world for a long time.
Then he sighed helplessly, and a jade box suddenly appeared in his hand. Before he opened it, he could feel the chill on his skin.
"This is an Ice Spirit Flower that is nearly 200 years old. It can be regarded as a meeting gift for you, Brother Lu." Jiang Chen handed over the Ice Spirit Flower and nodded to Lu Qingyang.
"No, no, no. I have no merit and no reward. I already owe many spiritual stones to my fellow Taoists. I dare not accept this thing again."
Lu Qingyang repeatedly waved his hands and refused to accept this thing.
"Why, Brother Lu refuses to recognize me as a friend? I still want to rely on Brother Lu's knowledge of formations!"
Jiang Chen forcibly handed the jade box into Lu Qingyang's hands, and then took his hands back after waiting for him.
Lu Qingyang opened his mouth and paused, then looked at Jiang Chen with a mixture of gratitude and doubt in his eyes, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Jiang Chen had seen what Lu Qingyang was thinking, and knew that in order to establish a friendship with him, in addition to showing his own strength, it was necessary to be sincere between friends, so he took out the ice spirit When it came to flowers, he didn't think too much about it, he just wanted to help him. Fortunately, he didn't lack the elixir.
Of course, whether Lu Qingyang is really worthy of his sincere friendship can only be known after getting along for some time!
So, Jiang Chen asked Lu Qingyang for the piece of silk again and said, "Okay, Brother Lu, now it's time to think about what materials I should buy for this formation!"
When he saw Lu Qingyang was still moved by his Ice Spirit Flower, Jiang Chen interrupted him. Now that the beast wave was approaching, he no longer wanted to waste time, so he refined the formation earlier.
