After purifying the materials, Li Muzi said goodbye and left.
Xu Ke picked up the altar array, came to the cave in the mountain, and began to arrange the altar.
"Installation" of the array is simple.
After boarding the round platform, Xu Ke placed the formation disk on the round platform, and placed the five formation flags around the altar according to the five elements. It was complete.
The next step is very critical.
Xu Ke fired a line of spiritual power, pulling the formation base, introducing spiritual power from the formation nodes, and connecting the formation disk and formation flag.
This step is very easy to operate, and the formation flag is smoothly connected to the Five Elements Formation.
The next step is the most critical step.
The altar that Xu Ke arranged in the cave was not a public altar like those on the original defense line, but a private altar that could not be manipulated by others.
Therefore, Xu Ke mobilized his own spiritual power with all his strength, integrated into the operation of the spiritual power of the array, constantly circulated in the array and flags, and constantly left his own spiritual mark.
This is refining the altar array.
Because the level of the altar array was too high, Xu Ke could not refine it with his own spiritual power. He could only use the process of the formation to imprint his own spiritual power into the array.
Xu Ke stopped operating the formation until the array formation flag was completely refined.
From then on, only Xu Ke could control this altar, and no one else could.
With a wave of his hand, the altar responded. The entire 500-mile boundary of Bishuitan, all the movement of spiritual power and the flow of all earth veins, were all under Xu Ke's control.
If someone comes to attack Xu Ke, they must destroy the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the five hundred miles of earth in one blow to break through the formation.
Even the master of Jindan Perfection should not be so strong, right?
Xu Ke smiled, his nest was already very stable.
——
After building the cave, Xu Ke placed a futon in the quiet room of the cave and began to practice.
With the help of the Five Elements Formation, one thought can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of five hundred miles. The concentration of spiritual energy is frighteningly high.
Xu Ke no longer worries that when practicing, the concentration of spiritual energy is not enough. Instead, there is too much spiritual energy and he cannot absorb it at all.
After one exercise, Xu Ke clearly found that his practice speed had increased significantly.
Without a hundred-fold harvest, the efficiency of one practice is at least doubled. One practice is equivalent to two previous practices.
Of course, it is impossible for practitioners to practice Qigong and Qi only once a day.
As long as you have time and conditions, you can practice as many times as you can. On average, I have to perform the exercises at least ten times a day.
In fact, Xu Ke's one hundred-fold gain every day does not increase his cultivation speed by a hundred times, but only ten times at most.
Now, with an abundant spiritual energy environment, practicing once is equivalent to practicing twice before. If you gain a hundred times more, the speed of practice will increase by at least twenty times.
The time for foundation building... has to be advanced again.
This speed of practice is really outrageous.
A helpless smile appeared on Xu Ke's face. The golden finger was too powerful, but it was also a trouble!
According to Xu Ke's idea, on the surface, it must only be the "Sword Art of Returning to the Origin of All Things" to build the foundation. From now on, the apparent cultivation will be shown in the "Sword Art of Returning to the Origin of All Things".
The foundation building of the Little Five Elements Hunyuan Zhenjue is reserved as a trump card.
Xu Ke had no public thoughts on the foundation-building method deduced from the Five Elements Hunyuan Zhenjue in a short period of time.
This is the fundamental path of one's own practice, and it is impossible to let others know about it.
The next thing to do is to thoroughly analyze the Wanxiang Guiyuan Sword Art, integrate it into the foundation of the Small Five Elements Hunyuan Zhenjue, and realize the concept of "one Qi to develop ten thousand methods".
Thinking of this, Xu Ke sighed again.
The foundation-building method of the Little Five Elements Hunyuan Zhenjue has not yet been thoroughly verified!
Now, on top of this, we have to add the "All Things Return to Origin Sword Technique", and the difficulty has soared again.
It seems that weapon refining must be learned.
Verifying the way of cultivation through refining weapons is the "instrument of enlightenment" and the "method of enlightenment".
Now that I have been promoted to the inner sect, I can go to the Buddhist Scripture Pavilion of the Chuanfa Hall to read. It is a good time to go out.
Xu Ke got up and walked out of the cave and came to Kunwu Courtyard.
Turning his head and taking a look, Xu Ke didn't even bother to greet the Purple Skylark that was jumping on the roof. He directly released his flying boat, took off into the sky, and rushed all the way to Haoyang City.
The formation protection covering the Bishuitan naturally has no blocking effect on Xu Ke, and Xu Ke can enter and exit at will.
Driving the green jade boat, we arrived all the way to Haoyang City and landed at the airport in Fang City.
Xu Ke had just put away the flying boat when he saw a sect's flying boat landing, and a group of injured monks walked out of it.
Injuries are normal.
Whether you are stationed at the defense line to farm monsters and collect materials, or you are exploring and developing the Hengduan Mountains, how can you be without any danger?
If you are not careful, you will inevitably get hurt.
These repatriated monks were all seriously injured and needed a period of rest to recover. Otherwise, they would not have given up the "opportunity to make a fortune" and returned to the sect's headquarters.
Xu Ke didn't pay much attention at first. He just glanced at it and planned to leave.
Just as he took a step, Xu Ke saw out of the corner of his eye a staggering figure, who looked very much like Hedongfang Zheng Liu Yongtian.
Is Liu Yongtian injured?
After the entire army of the "senior brothers" in Hedongfang was wiped out, even the leader of the square, Liu Yongtian, was injured and sent back?
Xu Ke paused, turned around and looked over. Sure enough, it was Liu Yongtian, the principal of Hedongfang.
At this moment, Liu Yongtian looked tired, his back was stooped, his steps were stumbling, and he looked very depressed.
"Fangzheng!"
Xu Ke called out and hurried over.
Liu Yongtian heard the call, turned his head and looked over, and saw Xu Ke.
"It's you!"
Liu Yongtian nodded, "I heard that you were promoted to the inner deacon and became the chief of Bishuitanfang. Congratulations!"
"It's all good luck!"
Xu Ke said something perfunctory, then looked at Liu Yongtian with concern, and asked: "Fang Zheng, what's wrong with you? What situation have you encountered?"
"Oh, I was careless!"
Liu Yongtian sighed, "A foundation-building monster was hiding in the herd and pretending to be an ordinary beast. We didn't pay attention when we killed it and were caught off guard. If the sect hadn't rescued it in time, I wouldn't have been able to return. coming."
At this point, Liu Yongtian raised his head, glanced at Xu Ke, and said: "Although I was able to recover from this injury, it was completely depleted and my life span was severely damaged. I... only have twenty years left at most. "
"Fangzheng, you..."
Xu Ke was shocked and his expression changed drastically.
Liu Yongtian is only over sixty years old. According to the 150-year lifespan of a Qi practitioner, he has not even passed half of it. Now he only has twenty years left to live?
"I plan to resign to the sect and return home."
Liu Yongtian waved his hand, "The road to spiritual practice is dead, and I only have twenty years left in my life. I want to return to my roots and visit my hometown again."
"Fangzheng, if..."
Xu Ke looked up at Liu Yongtian and said seriously: "What if you still have a chance to build a foundation?"
"Foundation building?"
A glint flashed in Liu Yongtian's eyes, and then dimmed again, "No chance. The Little Five Elements Hunyuan True Secret has no way to build a foundation."
"I'm not talking about the Little Five Elements Hunyuan True Secret."
Xu Ke smiled, stretched out a finger, and a sword energy rushed out from the fingertips. Then the sword energy divided into five elements and turned into five sword lights belonging to the five elements, intertwined and circulated at the fingertips.
"Did you waste your skills and rebuild your sword energy?"
Liu Yongtian saw the five-color sword energy swirling around Xu Ke's fingertips and nodded, "Yes, it would be better to revise as soon as possible. You are still young and have the opportunity to make further progress."
"This is the Wanxiang Guiyuan Sword Qi, given to me by the master master. It has other origins and is not a sect inheritance."
Xu Ke said to Liu Yongtian: "Fangzheng, I found that based on the Small Five Elements Hunyuan True Secret, there is no need to waste your efforts and rebuild the Wanxiang Guiyuan Sword Secret."
"With Fangzheng's cultivation level, within a few years, no more than ten years at most, he can definitely transform all the Hunyuan spiritual power into Guiyuan sword energy."
"The Wanxiang Guiyuan Sword Jue has a way to build a foundation. When the time comes, Fangzheng can take another step forward."
After saying that, Xu Ke reached out and took Liu Yongtian's hand, "Fang Zheng, you still have a chance, don't give up."
Liu Yongtian was silent for a while, and his confused eyes gradually became firm.
"good!"
Liu Yongtian held Xu Ke's hand tightly, "Okay, I will use the last twenty years of my life to fight against Mother Te!"
"Hahahaha! Okay!"
Xu Ke laughed loudly, "Fang Zheng, practicing is to fight for your life against heaven, how can you not fight for it?"
"Yes, fight for your life against heaven!"
Liu Yongtian also burst out laughing, and his heart felt heroic again.
After laughing, Liu Yongtian looked at Xu Ke again and said: "Xiao Xu, I came back from injury, and Hedongfangfang just can't go on anymore. You are already Bishuitanfangfangzheng, and I will rely on you to take care of me from now on." ”
"It's natural that you come to Bishuitan!"
Xu Ke really welcomes Liu Yongtian to Bishuitan. From now on, the Baibaozhai in Bishuitan Market Town was handed over to Liu Yongtian.
Xu Ke doesn't have the free time to stay in Baibaozhai and be the boss every day.
After talking for a while, the two said goodbye and left.
Liu Yongtian still needs to go through some handover procedures before he can resign as Hedong Fangfangzheng and successfully join Bishuitan.
After agreeing on a time, the two of them left.
Xu Ke set off for the Dharma Transmission Hall.
In the nine-story area of Haoyang City, the Dharma Transmission Hall is at the top.
Although "ranked in no particular order," the difference in position already indicates the level of status.
The Hall of Transmission of Laws naturally has the highest status among the halls of Haoyang Immortal Sect.
As for why the Buddhist Scripture Pavilion of the Chuanfa Hall was placed on an outer site like Haoyang City, it is because... there is also a Buddhist Scripture Pavilion and a Buddhist Scripture Pavilion in Haoyang Mountain.
The real good things, the real sect's true inheritance, are all in Haoyang Mountain.
The ones placed in the Scripture Collection Pavilion in Haoyang City are just some ancient books from the Qi training period. From Qi training to foundation building, there is not a single classic book after foundation building.
Xu Ke has seen it with his own eyes, and there is really not a single classic after the foundation was established.
No wonder it is open to inner disciples and they can browse through it at will. There is nothing good anyway.
Xu Ke originally wanted to find a few more techniques after foundation building to analyze and verify them and enrich his knowledge. Now it seems that we can only find a way later.
Fortunately, the method of refining alchemy and refining weapons that Xu Ke wanted is available here.
Taking out the blank jade slips, Xu Ke began to copy them without ceremony, copying down all the methods of alchemy and weapon refining that could be found in the Scripture Pavilion.
This made the deacon of the Chuanfa Hall, who was guarding the Sutra Pavilion, twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Why are you, a farmer in the Sinong Palace, copying so many alchemy and weapon refining techniques instead of copying the techniques for growing various crops?
Do you still want to study how to make elixirs and weapons by yourself?
Stop dreaming. The disciples of the Alchemy Hall and the Weapon Refining Hall have to study for ten or twenty years before they can get started!
Although he was complaining in his heart, the deacon did not interfere.
After all... Xu Ke is also a deacon of the inner sect. His status is the same as his, so he can't interfere.
Xu Ke saw what the deacon was thinking and just smiled without saying anything.
I am different from others, I cheat. It takes them ten or twenty years to get started, but it only takes me a few days.
After copying the required classics from the Sutra Pavilion, Xu Ke said goodbye and left.
Release the jade boat and return to the clear water pool all the way.
When he arrived at the gatehouse of Bishuitan, Xu Ke saw a large group of people gathered near the gatehouse.
There were men and women, and there were thousands of them.
At this moment, this group of people gathered in front of the gate tower, chatting and cursing.
A disciple from the Sinong Hall who was leading the team was explaining to them: "Everyone, please be patient! Xu Fangzheng may have gone out for something, please wait a moment!"
"What a wait! He's gone out, we have to wait?"
"If he doesn't come back for a year, we have to wait for a year?"
"Exactly! If he dies outside, will we have to wait a lifetime?"
"What are you doing! Why don't you open the door yet?"
"We have become disciples of the sect. Is this how the sect treats us?"
"Why do you shut us out? Why don't you let us in? Is there any justice left?"
"To humiliate and treat a fellow disciple like this is to treat a fellow disciple harshly. Come on, let's file a complaint! He won't even be able to be regarded as an upright person!"
The disciple in charge of the Sinong Palace who led the team was besieged by so many people. He was at a loss for a moment and didn't know what to do.
This is the new temporary worker recruited by the sect...oh, an outer disciple?
It’s really a mixed bag of good and bad!
Xu Ke frowned when he saw this scene.
The flying boat turned around and hovered over the gate tower of Bishuitan. Xu Ke stood on the flying boat and shouted to the people below: "Who is making noise here?"
"Master Xu...Xu Fangzheng, are you back?"
The serving disciple who led the team breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xu Ke's arrival, and quickly said to Xu Ke: "Xu Fangzheng, these are the new outer disciples who have been assigned to Bishuitan. Please accept them."
Xu Ke nodded, lowered the flying boat and landed in front of the gate tower.
"Xu Fangzheng, this is the roster, please click on it."
The serving disciple who led the team took out the roster and handed it to Xu Ke, "There are a total of 1,125 people, and they are all here."
Xu Ke took a look at the roster and then glanced at the crowd. Dayan's talent for divine calculation allowed Xu Ke to count the number of people quickly.
"The number of people is okay."
Xu Ke nodded and put away the roster.
"After the handover is completed, I will take my leave."
As if he had been granted amnesty, the serving disciple bowed his hand to Xu Ke, then turned around and left with the utmost simplicity.
"Are you Bishui Tanfangzheng?"
At this time, a muscular man with a dark face walked out from the crowd, pointed at Xu Ke and said: "A baby with no hair on his face, actually stood up? There is no one left in the sect. ?"
"That's it! That's it!"
"If there is no one left in the sect, we can do it!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The crowd burst into laughter.
well! They are actually a group of casual cultivators!
Provoke it first, try it out, and then decide how to get along.
If you do well, you will show off your power and become the king in the future. If you can't do it, you will just keep your tail between your legs from now on.
This move is obviously a gangster move, just like the original Mr. Tiger.
Seeing this situation, Xu Ke curled his lips.
This year’s newcomers are a bit arrogant!
Just when I was about to use someone to establish my authority, you guys cooperated so well, so naturally you can't live up to your good intentions.
