Aspiring to the Immortal Path

"That said, you just set up on a whim, and then went back to the room to remember and forget me?" In the room, Tang Jie stared at Xu Muyang and asked.

Xu Muyang blushed: "I just forgot the time."

He was so grandiose and real, and he turned out to be like a kid who made a mistake in the face of the question of a half-year-old. It was also interesting.

It's no wonder that Tang Jie was angry, and whoever came back and was trapped in the formation for several hours would not feel better.

Hearing Xu Muyang's answer at this moment, Tang Jie got up and left.

"Where are you going?" Xu Muyang asked in amazement.

"Go cook. I was trapped as soon as I came back. I haven't cooked yet."

"..."

Before long, Tang Jie had already prepared dinner and delivered it.

The two ate together in the courtyard, and Tang Jie remained silent.

"Why? Still angry with me?" Xu Muyang looked at Tang Jie with a smile: "Well, I admit that it was all my fault. I apologize to you, okay?"

Immortals are to mortals as gods are to the world, not to mention that if they are trapped for a long time, they are really killed, and others dare not say anything. But now Xu Muyang actually apologized to Tang Jie, and can only say that the current Xu Muyang and Tang Jie are already in a very good relationship.

Tang Jie shook his head, "I'm not angry, I'm just thinking, what is the formation and why is it so magical?"

He was trapped in the formation before, and he only felt like a maze. The yard was obviously still the same, but he couldn't get out of it. The hut was close at hand, but it was far away. At that time, I was still a little panicked and panic. Afterwards, I only felt that the mystery was infinite, so I couldn't help thinking when I was eating, what is the principle that can make the original ordinary land into a god-like space.

"Did you also find out?" Xu Muyang laughed: "Yes, formation is indeed a very magical knowledge, all-encompassing, implying the principle of heaven and earth, every plant and tree, everything can form a formation, it can be said to be the world. The first-class mystery, even if the immortal cultivator spends his entire life, he may not be able to understand one out of ten thousand, and the uses are even more extensive..."

When it comes to what he loves most, Xu Muyang immediately starts to talk, even more eloquent in his mouth.

"What the **** is the formation?" Tang Jie asked.

Xu Muyang replied: "The so-called formation, in the final analysis, is the cultivation of heaven and earth!"

"The repair of heaven and earth?"

"Yes!" Xu Muyang replied with a serious face: "If you think of the human body as a world, we cultivators will cultivate our own body. And outside of us, this vast world is itself a world. In this world Among them, there are mountains and rivers, lakes, land, and oceans. In fact, everything corresponds to our human body. The human body absorbs aura and releases the fairy dharma through its use. The heaven and the earth have aura, why can’t it be used to produce the fairy dharma? Heaven and Earth are unconscious, unable to use aura on their own, but immortal cultivators can use various methods to combine them. This is the formation!"

"It turned out to be like this." Tang Jie understood. To put it bluntly, it was the physics of the previous life!

The so-called formation method is like a certain high-tech precision machine, which uses aura as the power, replaces the veins with the formation pattern, runs the aura, and achieves the specified effect.

It's just that the laws of the world are different, and the people who use it are different, so the phenomena and effects, and even the means of creation are completely different.

It is precisely because of this that the Array Dao has a very wide coverage in the world of immortality.

The fourth auxiliary of the immortal family, the pill talisman formation, among which the formation is the most versatile. It can not only be used to make the martial art of guarding the mountain, but also has an auxiliary effect on the third auxiliary of the pill talisman. Alchemy needs Array formation, talisman making requires an array map, and refining tools also need to engrave an array. It can be said that it is ubiquitous and has a far-reaching impact. Therefore, there are also many types of formations.

According to Xu Muyang's statement, there are generally two types of formations. The Death Array is a fixed and immovable array, such as the Little Rose Array that Tang Jie experienced before is the Death Array. Living formations are generally battle formations, which are generally used by immortal cultivators to multiply their power, and are also a magic weapon for defeating the strong with the weak.

In addition, there are also divisions according to function. For example, formations are also required when refining pill talisman. Some people call this type of auxiliary array, which means auxiliary in auxiliary.

In short, there are many sects in the formation, and they have a long history. In fact, there is no uniform standard. Each has its own way of judging, and even their opinions are different.

For example, some people think that the formation method is used to assist, it is the external expression of the will of the cultivator, and it serves the cultivator. Therefore, this kind of people think that Xu Muyang's so-called formation is the way of heaven and earth. Dismissively.

Ideas guide behavior.

Xu Muyang's philosophy has made him proficient in the formation of heaven and earth. He is good at arranging or cracking some super-large and large-scale formations. He is not good at battle formations or small auxiliary formations.

Regarding the current understanding of large-scale formations, at least in Qixia Realm, no one is better than Xu Muyang.

At this moment, Xu Muyang talked endlessly, and he was full of excitement.

Tang Jie had never seen him so proactive before. In order to learn from Xu Muyang to cultivate immortality, he didn't know how much effort he had spent to make himself almost alive. In the end, he only learned a Tibetan elephant scripture.

Speaking of excitement, Xu Muyang suddenly said, "Why don't you learn from me?"

"Huh?" Tang Jie was stupid.

Xu Muyang has said: "This Array Dao was self-studied by me from searching the world. It does not belong to the Xujia secrets, it can be passed on to you. I think you are smart and smart, and you are also suitable for learning!"

"But... my heart is on the road, it's not suitable to be distracted by the side..." Tang Jie replied hesitantly.

Although the formation is good, human energy is limited.

Now Tang Jie is no longer the chaotic and ignorant kid who knew nothing about Xiuxian. He already knew how difficult the road to Xiuxian was. Many people may not be able to reach the peak during their lifetime.

Why is Xu Family Patriarch not willing to learn from Formation Dao? Isn’t it just because he’s afraid that his energy will be scattered and delay the right path, Tang Jie asked himself that he didn’t have Xu Muyang’s aptitude against the sky, and even the people who opened his door for Rank 7 would run away in embarrassment under the chase of the golden armored deity. If he is No matter how distracted, I am afraid that future achievements will be limited.

"You can't say that." Xu Muyang already shook his head and said, "The path of cultivation is difficult. In addition to hard work, you also need to have comprehension. Formation and cultivation are both inclusive of the principles of heaven and earth. Both may not be necessary. They can’t complement each other. Furthermore, one of the formations may not have any effect on the battle. In the battle of Cuiwei Mountain, my strength is far worse than that of He Chong, but he has not been beaten with the help of the eight-door lock sky formation I arranged in advance. Ran."

If you are willing to listen to your father's concentration on cultivation, I'm afraid that he can't beat him without a battle, and Tang Jie will slander in his heart, but seeing Xu Muyang's elated appearance, I can't bear and dare not attack him.

Most of the Xu Muyang he saw these days were taciturn and awe-inspiring. Only the current Xu Muyang truly showed the aura of a mortal.

It can only be said that he really loves Zhendao.

Xu Muyang has continued to say: "Besides, you are just washing your pulse, unable to cultivate, and you are idle. I have promised to teach you something, but I can't teach you the magic of the Xu family, so I will teach you all my life. Learning is not against your promise. If you are really not interested in learning in the future, I will not force you, what do you think?"

"Well..." Tang Jie replied feebly.

Seeing him reluctantly, Xu Muyang couldn't help being angry and funny, and patted his head: "You kid, you are really cheap and good. You know how many people want to worship me and learn from me. None."

Yes, your father told you not to learn the Dao, you want to learn;

If others want to learn from you but don’t teach, I don’t want to learn from you but I want to teach;

What I want to learn is immortal law, but what you want to teach is formation;

You belong to a donkey, and you specialize in confronting people. Since knowing that Xu Muyang can't measure his heart, Tang Jie's slander has become more and more fierce.

But whether he wants it or not, he still has to learn this way.

After dinner, Xu Muyang began to teach Tang Jie.

"The formation is vast and profound, but no matter what kind of formation it is, it is inseparable from the four elements of formation eye, formation pattern, formation gate and formation source. The so-called formation eye is the center of the formation, where the core is, just like the human brain. , Controlling everything is the most critical part. Without the formation eyes, the formation cannot be operated as you wish. Such formations are the real death formations. The so-called formations are the routes of spiritual energy, such as the blood meridians of the human body. , The road of the world, without the formation pattern, the formation cannot be operated. The gate is also the gate. It can accommodate people in, give people out, or defend the enemy outside the gate. The source of the formation is the big formation. The source of mobilization. A person can only perform a spell if he has aura, and so is the formation..."

"Understood, the formation eye is the brain, it is the command; the formation pattern is the blood veins and bones, it is the support; the formation gate is the place where the real power is exerted, it is the limbs; the formation source is the heart, the source of power, like an engine... oh No, it's like the spiritual eye in our body, right?"

"That's right. The cultivator uses the spirit sea in his body as the driving force, and the formation source uses the spirit stone and other external objects as the driving force. Of course, the cultivator himself can also help it."

"That's weird, the little Rosette array you used before, I didn't see any spirit stones."

"That's because I added a small gathering spirit formation, which can automatically absorb aura. This is called a multi-array formation in the formation."

"Doesn’t that mean that as long as there is a Spirit Gathering Formation, it can automatically absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and the Spirit Gathering Formation is the source of the formation? But how did the Spirit Gathering Form be activated? Self-sufficient? Perpetual motion machine?" Tang Jie's eyes are all It's almost protruding.

Xu Muyang had never heard of the term perpetual motion machine, but he could understand its meaning literally, and laughed and said, "How can such a good thing happen. The Spirit Gathering Array itself also needs external force to activate it, and I input another aura to make it? Even so, the spirit gathering array can only gather nearby auras. Once the nearby auras are exhausted, it will have no effect. This small rosette array is just my game for a while, unless it is supplemented with a spirit stone, it will be three at best. Days will dissipate on its own."

"It turns out that there is still no real perpetual motion machine." Tang Jie sighed, "That is to say, there is no real formation that can last forever in the world. Each formation actually needs someone to maintain or have enough aura. Can resources exist?"

Hearing this, Xu Muyang replied: "There may be no formations that will last forever, but formations that have existed for thousands of years still exist."

"Existing for tens of thousands of years?" Tang Jie was taken aback by Xu Muyang's statement.

"Yes, not long ago, I personally experienced it." Xu Muyang's expression has become solemn, and there is infinite admiration in his eyes, as if he recalled something.

After a long time, he sighed: "Compared with the ancient power, I am still too far behind. If it weren't for this, it would be impossible to open only the first door..."

He didn't go on, just a turn of the conversation: "Finally, don't mention these, this is not what you can understand now, let's talk back to the formation. Of the four cores of the formation, the formation pattern and the formation source are the most complicated. I. I will teach you the basic pattern first."

As he said, he raised his hand and flicked in the void, and strange patterns flashed in the air, which faded and disappeared after a while.

"Draw the pattern I just drew, and remember, you must do it in the order I drew it, one by one, without the slightest error." Xu Muyang said lightly.

Array pattern drawing is a basic technique for an array master, and it is often an entry assessment. Although Xu Muyang had the heart to teach Tang Jie, he also wanted to see if Tang Jie had the talent in this area. If there is really no talent in this area, he will not force it.

The next moment Tang Jie had picked up a branch and began to draw a line on the ground. Without the aura of Xu Muyang's hand, he could only work on paper honestly, but the strokes were extremely neat.

At first Xu Muyang didn't care, but he was surprised when he saw Tang Jie cross the line.

Because Tang Jie almost perfectly reproduced the several lines he had drawn before, when Tang Jie finished painting, Xu Muyang found that Tang Jie's strokes were almost correct.

"You... how did you do it?" Xu Muyang looked surprised.

"It's very simple, isn't it just a combination of dashed and solid lines?" Tang Jie was puzzled. In his eyes, although these patterns are complicated, they are just some geometric figures, which can be remembered with a little care. After all, he was very familiar with this kind of thing when he was in school. Since Xu Muyang asked him to draw it, he followed it.

He didn't know that Xu Muyang asked him to paint, but he didn't expect him to paint them all.

The Qixia world is not without mathematics, but the status of this knowledge in the Qixia world is not high, and the depth is far worse than that of the earth. Those who understand may not be able to cultivate immortals, and those who cultivate immortals do not necessarily need to understand, and only those who have studied the formations of the path can study this knowledge.

Therefore, the very simple pattern for Tang Jie may be confusing to others.

At this moment, I heard Tang Jie say that it was extremely simple, Xu Muyang was busy drawing another complicated figure on the ground, but this time he no longer asked Tang Jie to copy, he still pointed to the pattern above and said: "This point is Start with this point as the end, and find three lines that are connected but do not cross each other."

Tang Jie only glanced at it briefly, then used a small branch to copy it a few times: "This...this...and this one."

Xu Muyang was shocked. It was not difficult to find three non-interfering lines in this pile of complex patterns, but it was not easy to find it at such a fast speed.

Xu Muyang asked another question, but this time it was a question of how he calculated the size of each route and area.

Tang Jie didn't expect that learning the formation method would become a math test, and he didn't know how much it had to be considered qualified, so he could only bite the bullet and follow Xu Muyang's requirements step by step.

Tang Jie didn’t have much interest in mathematics, but his mother was a mathematics teacher. She used a whip to study him~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and said that he could not learn well and lost the face of being a mother. Now it hasn’t been two years since graduation. Finally, before he had time to return all of what he had learned, it was not too difficult to add the questions from Xu Muyang at this moment, so Xu Muyang asked the questions all the way, and most of them were solved by him.

But Xu Muyang became more frightened as he watched.

Because he discovered that Tang Jie used several solutions that he didn't even understand.

The way of formation has extremely high requirements on the number of Yi Lishu, but there are very few who are really interested in studying it. Those who pursue formation are often pursuing the power of formation, which is necessary for the realization of it. , It was totally uninteresting, and it was painful to learn one by one.

It can be said that Xu Muyang hasn't seen a few good maths in his entire life. Only at this moment did he suddenly find out. He was surprised and happy, and suddenly grabbed Tang Jie and shouted, "Monster! Genius! You said you don't want to. Learn? You are a genius of practice!"

Tang Jie was taken aback by his catch, and even said what he said in his heart: "But I don't want to learn."

"Nonsense! With such a talent, how can you say that you don't love it?" Xu Muyang was excited at this moment, where is the graceful demeanor of the past, seeing Tang Jie die not admitting that he has the talent in this line is even more painful. : "You don't know what love is!"

He is an attitude determinist through and through, convinced that only love can accomplish great things.

His achievement against Dao is because he deeply loves Dao, and also loves Yi Li Shushu. In his view, Tang Jie's talent is his love for the art of numbering, otherwise how could he have such an accomplishment.

Tang Jie had never seen him like this, and he was stunned: "Big Brother Xu, but I really don't feel anything about this."

"Then how do you explain your talent?" Xu Muyang still didn't give up.

Tang Jie replied helplessly: "How do I know... Maybe I don't love Jin Dao, but Jin Dao loves me!"
