Chapter 720: Array System
Mo Hua has more and more "guiding" fellow disciples.
The more customized spiritual weapons you refine, the more you refine them.
There are more and more weapon refining arrays designed.
Mo Hua thought for a while and simply gathered these formation diagrams together, gradually forming a system for customizing spiritual weapons.
This spiritual weapon system covers a wide range of things.
Including reconnaissance, surveillance, early warning and other functions to anticipate enemy opportunities;
Including quicksand, dungeon, golden lock, wooden binding and other formations to trap the enemy;
Including sword slashing, spear blade stabbing, fist and kick striking, and other armors for strong defense;
Also including armor Taoist robes for magical defense such as fire, water, wood, and poison...
Only the offensive spiritual weapons are missing.
Because most of the attacking spiritual weapons used by the children of aristocratic families are inherited spiritual weapons passed down from their ancestors.
Customized weapons made from ink paintings are definitely not as powerful as these inherited spiritual weapons.
Most of the spiritual weapons he customized have specific functions.
For example, armor-breaking blades are used to break the enemy's hard armor.
Or there are fire-attached swords, water-attached swords, gold-attached swords, etc., which are used to supplement the attribute attacks for disciples who lack spiritual root attributes.
But the children of the aristocratic family still pay attention to "breaking all laws with one force".
Those with above-grade spiritual roots, deep foundations, and excellent cultivation techniques and Taoist techniques can rely on their strength to fly big bricks and suppress the enemy with their strength.
I don’t pay much attention to little tricks such as attribute generation and countermeasures.
Therefore, they don't use many such attack weapons, and they don't design many ink paintings.
But despite this, this entire set of customized spiritual weapons has begun to take shape.
The formation and spiritual weapon systems already have a basic framework and prototype.
It integrates early warning, trapping enemies, attacking and protecting.
From now on, we just need to continue to improve the level of spiritual weapons and formations, continue to iterate, continue to complete, and continue to improve, so that this system can shine.
However, after careful consideration, Mo Hua discovered that this system seemed to be missing a piece:
Spiritual power increase.
In other words, it is...
"Five Elements Source Formation!"
Mo Hua's eyes brightened slightly, and then he frowned.
The Five Elements Source Formation is the ultimate formation of the Five Elements Sect in the past. It can strengthen the Five Elements and increase spiritual power.
This is a very powerful formation, but Mo Hua has reached the border of Qianxue State and has only been used in a handful of times.
One is because it is not used.
At first, he hung out with his senior brothers and sisters.
Senior brothers and sisters have profound cultivation and strong strength.
The enemies they can defeat do not need the Five Elements Source Formation to increase.
The only time when the vulture was captured, with the increase of the Five Elements Golden Source Formation, Senior Sister Murong killed the vulture with a superior Taoist technique that condensed the colorful rays of light.
But only this time.
As for an enemy you can't beat, it's best not to fight him at all.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall unless absolutely necessary. There is no need to take risks and fight to the death with powerful enemies.
Using the Five Elements Source Formation to increase spiritual power, one can compete and decide life and death. There is only a thin line between life and death. If you are not careful, you will be the one who dies.
So don’t fight if you can’t.
The second reason is that the Five Elements Source Formation is very demanding to use.
The monks must stand within the formation to be strengthened by the Five Elements Source Formation. Once outside the range of the formation, their spiritual power will not be enhanced.
This is equivalent to a living target.
Especially for spiritual practitioners, who have high attack and low defense and rely on spells to survive. In a life-and-death battle, they are especially afraid of getting close to physical practitioners.
Due to the increase of the Five Elements Source Array, although the power of the spell has increased, its movements are also more restricted, and it has truly become a fixed-point "glass cannon".
There are pros and cons.
But the advantages are great, and the disadvantages are even greater.
For physical cultivation, the Five Elements Source Formation also seems a bit useless.
The Five Elements Source Formation strengthens the Five Elements and increases spiritual power.
Physical cultivation relies on strong blood and strong strength to kill at close quarters, but it also has the attribute of spiritual roots, and the blood itself is also transformed from spiritual power through meridians.
Therefore, although the physical cultivator is not good at spells, he can still be amplified by the Five Elements Source Array.
However, because of the transformation of spiritual power into blood, the effect of physical cultivation on the amplification of the five elements is far less effective than the direct use of spells on spiritual cultivation.
The biggest problem with physical training is also limited movement.
To kill at close quarters, you must be flexible in advance and retreat, and rely more on body skills.
In actual combat, they would fight each other quickly and rush to kill each other. It was even more impossible to stay within the confines of the Five Elements Source Formation and constrain oneself.
Otherwise, he will not only be a target, but also look like a fool.
Therefore, the Five Elements Source Formation looks very strong, but in actual use it has harsh conditions and will be restricted by various factors.
unless……
The ink painting is a little contemplative.
Carve the Five Elements Origin Array into spiritual weapons such as armor and Taoist robes.
Wear it anywhere, easy to move without restrictions.
This is the best solution.
It's just that there was no condition before, and Mo Hua couldn't find anyone to refine this special armor or Taoist robe.
He was practicing and learning formations, going out to offer rewards, and was quite busy, so he had no time to think about this matter.
And now...
Mo Hua thought about it carefully.
He was "grounded" in the sect, and he happened to be researching custom-made spiritual weapons, with the help of Master Gu, a third-grade weapon refiner.
The time, place and people are favorable.
We can just take this opportunity to study the practical application of the Five Elements Source Formation.
If the research is done well, this Zhen Sect, which used to be famous for the Five Elements Sect but is now on the verge of being extinct, can be considered to be able to "come back to the world"!
And this perfect formation can just make up for the last link in the formation and spiritual weapon system that I built:
Spiritual power increase!
Mo Hua's eyes lit up and his thoughts gradually became clear.
Monastic industry integration.
The combination of weapon refining and formation techniques was finally applied to monks.
Build a complete array auxiliary system that integrates detection, enemy trapping, attack, defense, and amplification!
This system will first be used on sect disciples to earn some spiritual stones.
Then with the support of spiritual stones, we continued to improve.
One day, when this set of formations and weapon refining processes mature and my own experience becomes rich, I can generalize and try to decentralize them to the lower-level cultivation circles for the development of various relatively economical and low-cost products for monastic production. Spiritual weapons, as well as supporting formations that are simple and easy to learn.
From monk killing to monastic production.
From customized to standard.
From expensive to cheap.
This is gradually spreading...
"Understand the way of heaven and benefit all living beings."
A true formation should not only serve a few people, but should truly benefit everyone in the world.
Mo Hua was startled, and his mind suddenly dawned, and his understanding of the formation of heaven and earth became more and more profound...
After that, Mo Hua couldn't wait and started researching armored Taoist robes suitable for the "Five Elements Source Array".
But this kind of armor is very special.
The inheritance of the Five Elements Absolute Formation is on the verge of extinction, and there are almost no records of matching spiritual weapons or formation matchmakers left.
Even if there were, the ink paintings would be impossible to find.
He could only explore a little bit by himself and then discuss it with Master Gu.
This also takes a while.
About a month later, Master Gu personally came to Taixu Sect, chatted with Mo Hua, and then drew up a prototype of a set of armor.
Master Gu plans to go back and practice first.
He wasn't sure what the effect would be. After all, Mo Hua's requirements were very strange and he had never refined a similar spiritual weapon.
But Master Gu didn't ask any more questions.
After all, the formation issues were too complicated and obscure for him to understand. He only needed to be responsible for the issues at the weapon refining level.
After the discussion, Master Gu left Taixu Gate and then went to the Shang Pavilion in the city.
The customized spiritual weapon was sold, and he wanted to get the spiritual stone.
This month, the spiritual weapons were sold very well, which was a large sum of spiritual stones.
In Taixu City, in the Gu Family Shang Pavilion.
When the manager of Shangge handed over the storage bag full of spiritual stones to Master Gu, he couldn't help but click his tongue in surprise.
"In the Taixu Sect, I don't know where there are so many swindlers who are willing to spend so many spiritual stones to buy these weird spiritual weapons of yours."
He and Master Gu usually have a good relationship, so they talk more casually.
Master Gu smiled and said, "You don't understand this..."
The doorway here is complicated...
Weapon refining techniques, process optimization, formation diagram design, formation characterization, as well as the demand and sales of spiritual weapons.
It looks simple on the surface, but Master Gu also knows that even though he is a third-grade weapon refiner, what he can do is actually very limited.
Most of the credit goes to Young Master Mo.
Master Gu also couldn't figure out where Mr. Mo got so many connections in the sect.
He shook his head, looked at the steward, and said with a smile: "I'll treat you to a drink at noon."
The manager did not refuse anyone who came, and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will also take advantage of it."
At noon, the two of them ate spiritual food and drank fine wine in Taixu City.
The Shangge affairs will have to be entrusted to the trustee in the future, so Master Gu is very generous.
The manager is also very happy.
Coupled with the drunkenness, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
After drinking, the two of them went home.
Master Gu has to return to Gushan City to continue making the next batch of spiritual weapons.
On the carriage heading to Gushan City, Master Gu touched several heavy storage bags around his waist. Although he felt emotional, he was still a little unbelievable.
Five hundred thousand spirit stones!
Small spiritual weapons are cheaper, while large ones are more expensive. The average price of spiritual weapons is about 5,000 spiritual stones. Within a month, nearly a hundred pieces were sold.
After deducting the cost, this is also a very considerable income.
And, this is just the beginning. Master Gu's disciple Dachuan also looked shocked.
He has grown up and lived a hard life every day, but he has never seen so many spiritual stones.
Master Gu thought for a moment and then ordered: "Stop when passing by the next fairy city, go into the city to buy some wine and meat, and take it back to reward everyone."
Dachuan was very happy and quickly smiled and said:
"Yes, Master!"
Life at the Gushan Weapon Refining Shop has always been hard, and it has been a long time since everyone has been able to drink heavily or eat meat.
Then he couldn't help but sigh: "Master, how can I spend these spiritual stones? I feel like I can't spend them all..."
Master Gu laughed.
This silly boy is used to being poor. Since he was born, he only knows what it is like to be poor and has no idea what he can do with too many spiritual stones.
Even if you ask him to think about it, he can't think of it.
Then Master Gu changed his mind and felt a little sad.
Five hundred thousand spirit stones...
a lot of.
These spiritual stones are enough for the refining shop to buy a good refining furnace, purchase a lot of high-grade refining materials, and buy some rare refining maps.
The remaining spirit stones can allow everyone to live a life without worrying about food and drink for a while.
This amount of spiritual stone can be said to be very rich.
but……
Master Gu sighed in his heart.
But these spirit stones are actually very few.
It might just be the cost of a banquet for some aristocratic families.
Even just the price of a horse, a chariot, a song and dance, a fine wine, a beauty...
The world is so unfair.
Master Gu glanced at Dachuan again.
This simple, miserable boy knows nothing.
But it’s okay not to know…
simple is the best.
Once a person sees the colorful world and has frivolous desires, but does not have a firm Taoist heart, sooner or later a person's mentality will be distorted and completely broken.
Master Gu looked at Dachuan, smiled and said: "There are a lot of things that can be done. Let's talk about it when we get back. Let's do everything one by one. Let everyone have a good meal first, but..."
Master Gu frowned, thought for a moment and said, "I want to leave a portion for Young Master Mo."
Dachuan was startled and nodded.
They were able to complete this business and earn so many spiritual stones, thanks to the fair and tender little Mr. Mo.
It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.
When they first met, he thought the young master was a kid from some family, but he didn't expect that he was so capable.
Dachuan was amazed.
"It's just," Dachuan was a little confused, "Little Master Mo, does he know how to do it?"
He always felt that although Young Master Mo was young, he already had some celestial spirit.
Such a person may not be interested in these spiritual stones.
Master Gu shook his head and said: "This is what the young master deserves. Whether he wants it or not, we will give it to him. This is the principle of life. A drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring."
"What's more, to us, the young master is much more 'precious' than these spiritual stones."
“Never lose the big for the small.”
"But there is no need to say it clearly now, otherwise it will look like we are deliberately repaying our kindness, and it will appear as if we are deliberately repaying our kindness. We can just keep a portion silently for Young Master Mo."
Dachuan nodded repeatedly, "Master, you are still thoughtful."
Master Gu patted the storage bag on his waist, and a smile appeared on his determined face...
…
In Taixu Gate.
At this time, Mo Hua didn't know that two people were secretly "saving" spirit stones for him.
Inadvertently, he already had two "small spiritual stone libraries".
Mo Hua continued to learn the formation.
The armor would have to be refined for a while, but before that, he continued to practice the formations with peace of mind as always.
Mo Hua lay on the desk and slowly drew out a second-grade seventeen-line formation, one stroke at a time.
After finishing the painting, he continued with the second painting.
These were all the lessons assigned to him by Mr. Xun.
"Study more. The more you learn, the better. The more solid you are, the better. If the formation diagram is not enough, come to me again..."
What Mr. Xun said was right, and Mo Hua liked to hear it very much.
But there was something strange in his heart.
Originally, Mr. Xun said that he could not ignore the sect system and asked him to accumulate merits and change formations by himself.
But now, Mr. Xun doesn't care about this anymore.
He kept pushing himself to learn and cramming himself with formations.
Although Mo Hua has a big appetite and digests quickly, and he can eat whatever Mr. Xun feeds him, he still has some murmurs in his heart.
Mr. Xun, seems a little anxious?
What are you anxious about?
Does Mr. Xun have any other plans?
Mo Hua is a little confused.
He also secretly looked at Mr. Xun, but Mr. Xun's mind was as deep as the sea, his expression was as calm as an ancient well, and he couldn't tell a single clue.
Mo Hua tentatively asked:
"Mr. Xun, do I still want to place an order now?"
He can already draw second-level high-level introductory formations. He has extensive experience in formations, has a solid foundation in formations, and knows many formations.
It should be no problem to take the formation assessment and decide to be a second-grade mid-level formation master.
When Mr. Xun heard this, he raised his eyes slightly and said calmly:
"Not urgent."
"oh."
Mo Hua was sure in his heart that Mr. Xun must have some plans.
But since Mr. Xun said there was no rush, he wasn't in a hurry either.
Anyway, as long as you can learn formations, that's fine.
The more formations you learn, the deeper your understanding, the higher your attainments, and the stronger your foundation.
Mo Hua has strong spiritual awareness, quick recovery, and is also assisted by Taoist tablets.
After studying formations day and night like this, although he can only learn seventeen lines, the foundation of second-grade high-level formations in ink painting is already stronger than that of many real second-grade high-level formation masters.
Gather sand to form a tower.
What he has to do now, or rather, what Mr. Xun asked him to do now, is to continuously expand, consolidate, and lay the foundation of the formation...
After several days of this, the armor was still not finished.
Mo Hua was eating in the dining hall when Cheng Mo suddenly found him and asked: "Senior Brother, is there any way to prevent demons or evil spirits?"
Mo Hua was confused, "You want to deal with the demon cultivator?"
Cheng Mo thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't count. It's a reward issued by the Daoting Secretary to catch a few criminal cultivators. It's just that these people have practiced some evil skills, but they are not orthodox. They are considered to be evil halfway... "
"Nip it in the bud, so I'm here to ask you."
Mo Hua frowned.
Practicing evil skills and becoming a demon halfway?
Daoting Sifa’s mission?
Mo Hua was startled, and suddenly remembered what Uncle Gu had told him before:
"A group of demonic cultivators of unknown origin have poured into the area around the border of Qianxue State..."
"The origin has not yet been found out, and it is also unclear how many there are and what their cultivation level is."
"The scope of activities is limited to the second- and third-grade small states near the Qianxue state boundary. The intentions are unknown, but they must not have any good intentions..."
Is the person Cheng Mo wants to arrest one of these "devil cultivators"?
Daotingsi doesn’t have enough manpower, so the reward for capturing the demon cultivator can only be sent to the sect?
Mo Hua thought about it and felt it was very possible.
And when Cheng Mo said this, he remembered that the fellow disciples who had recently asked him for advice had accepted bounties and asked some dangerous questions.
Before, I still caught some snitches and arrested a few criminal cultivators.
The opponents we have to deal with now are obviously desperadoes who have had lives on their hands.
Now it seems that the bounty they accepted is probably to deal with the "demon cultivator" that Uncle Gu mentioned.
Mo Hua thought for a moment and then said:
"Evil skills are also diverse. For example, some people use evil spirits to take away people's minds, some people have poison in their blood, some people are accustomed to using poisonous evil weapons, and some people use poisonous evil weapons. Repair and repair..."
"When you encounter someone who cultivates evil spirits, you must stay away and don't look into their eyes."
"There is poison in the blood, so we must use fire spells or formations to restrain it."
"Insidious evil weapons cannot be used head-on with spiritual weapons, especially inherited spiritual weapons, otherwise they will be contaminated."
"Xiu Caibun generally has good physical skills, so if he is caught, he will have his three legs broken to prevent him from doing evil again..."
Mo Hua told Cheng Mo about the various demonic cultivation methods he had seen in the Bishan Demon Cave, as well as the many demonic cultivation techniques he had seen, "like a treasure trove".
Cheng Mo was shocked.
He hesitated for a long time, looking around, then lowered his voice and said nervously:
"Senior brother, why are you so familiar? You can't be..."
Mo Hua glanced at him lightly, "Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. How can you kill demons if you don't know their methods?"
Cheng Mo was startled, thought for a moment, nodded and said:
"It makes sense!"
But the ink painting is also very curious.
He wanted to know why these demon cultivators suddenly appeared and what their intentions were.
Could it be related to the evil god?
If this is the case, it must not be ignored.
But he was trapped in the sect and could not leave the Qianxue state boundary to find out.
Mo Hua was thinking silently, and suddenly an idea flashed through him.
He asked Cheng Mo to call over a group of disciples who had good relationships and often called him "little senior brothers", and then said to them:
"You accept bounties, complete tasks, and catch criminal cultivators or demonic cultivators. If you find something weird and whose origin is unclear, remember to bring it back to me for a look."
Situ Jian frowned, "What about?"
"For example," Mo Hua thought for a while and said in deep thought, "statues, broken swords, horns, bones and other weird things..."
"Or..." Mo Hua's eyes narrowed slightly and he said slowly: "The encrypted letter, the blank jade slip, the message order with the message erased, and..."
"Some kind of sect token!"
