Chapter 212 Grand Formation
Gu Qingshui turned into water and went away, and the cave became peaceful.
"Ancestor's shoulders are small, and it's a bit painful to pinch. They're not as comfortable as Jiang Yatou's."
Lin Bai looked at his hands for a while, thinking that he would go further this time, and he only hoped that he could beat Aunt Gu's legs next time we meet again.
"Foxes feel comfortable to touch, but they are not human after all. Patriarch Gu treats me very well, and I wish I could show my filial piety at my knees!"
After muttering for a long time and refining two batches of Tiger Wolf Pills, I finally calmed down.
After being in a daze for a while, I came to the stone plate.
But I saw stars hidden in the clouds and mist, each forming a constellation. There is a hint of green on the outside, which is Aunt Gu's bracelet.
Xiuxiu seemed lazy and stopped doing deductions.
"After knowing my whereabouts, why are you lazy? The stinking fox doesn't even say to take care of me!"
After scolding for a while, Lin Bai thought carefully about Aunt Gu's words.
In fact, when Gu Qingshui came to visit this time, he didn't say anything useful and only asked Lin Bai to go to Qiaoshan and send Qingyun Mountain to do his bidding.
As a small foundation builder, like an ant, Lin Bai had no idea what Nascent Soul was thinking. However, although Gu Qingshui has always been cold, he is not cunning and cunning, and he has not seen many deep cities. His love and hatred are all written on his face.
"Aunt Gu is a young genius who has realized the Tao Nascent Soul very early. She has everything going smoothly. She rarely makes mistakes with others and keeps herself somewhat naive."
"There are good and bad things about following this kind of person."
After thinking for a long time, Lin Bai opened his eyes and took out the escape talisman given by Xiu Xiu.
"The fox is stingy!"
If I don't scold a fox twice every day, I feel uncomfortable all over.
After collecting the elixirs and opening the cave door, Miaomiao and Xiaoyuer were waiting.
"Senior." Jiang Yu saluted respectfully, "My sister is ready to listen attentively. Let me urge senior."
Lin Bai also wanted to taste the wonders of slender branches and fruitful fruits again, but Aunt Gu gave orders and could only endure it.
"My sister also said that my senior has gone through many hardships and dangers outside. Can he give a sermon in Yuhu and describe his gains and losses?" Jiang Yu spoke clearly, with jade on his forehead and a smile on his face.
The so-called preaching is a common occurrence in sect families. If you go out to build a foundation and successfully build a foundation, you have to come back and talk to each other; if you return from an adventure in a secret realm, you have to talk to your fellow disciples; or if you encounter a monster, you have to tell how to capture it or how to escape; or even how to fight with it. Dealing with casual cultivators, or even how to prevent being cheated.
Of course, if the person involved doesn’t want to talk more, that’s okay. However, as long as the matter does not involve secrets, most of them will be shared with fellow disciples.
The so-called foundation, this is one of them, everything has its precedent.
"Forget about the preaching." Lin Bai waved his hand, "I am just building a foundation, how can I preach under the Jindan sect? It's better to do this. I will talk a little about the principles of formation and alchemy another day."
Now that Lin Bai was familiar with various sects and families, whenever anyone asked him to talk a few words, Lin Bai would talk about alchemy. Anyway, alchemy is a profound knowledge. No matter when you talk about it, there are people who are willing to listen.
"Thank you, senior." Jiang Yu happily bowed and saluted, and then asked, "When will senior be free? I can make arrangements."
"Whatever."
Lin Bai was about to go to Qingyun Mountain, so he didn't care about these small things. "You go and do these things. I have many things to do."
He put his hands behind his hands and looked at the horizon. The clouds were changing, and his eyes could not break through the layers of clouds. "I want to focus my energy on serving the nobles."
Jiang Yu and Miaomiao looked at each other, not knowing what they meant, let alone who was the noble one.
After dealing with the two little girls, Lin Bai closed the door of the cave that was not yet warm and went to Xinyi Square.
Go to Fengming Pavilion for a walk and ask Zhu Yuhui to tell Zhu Yushu and Tian Wanjun that they are safe.
After leaving Fengming Pavilion, I wandered to the Crystal Palace and met the old cultivator on the way.
"I heard that a young Ji Ji from Qiaoshan fell in love with my master uncle, and caused great disgrace to my master uncle Qu. Do you know where that person came from?" After the old cultivator took Lin Bai's Tiger Wolf Pill, they started talking.
Did the news spread so quickly? Lin Baixiao asked: "Oh? Which young hero is it?"
"What a young hero, please stop saying a few words." The old cultivator tugged on Lin Bai's sleeves, lowered his voice and said, "I heard that he is a ruthless person and loves to show off. Uncle Master's close disciple is hooked. Yes, he is the one who is destined to be the one of Fairy Shen Yu. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, there are really all kinds of monsters in Qiaoshan, so we might as well rename it Jiuyin Mountain."
"..." Lin Bai didn't expect that after a few harsh words with the Jindan monk, his reputation would get worse and worse!
After chatting for a long time, Lin Bai said goodbye and left.
After finding Tianchi Pavilion, he sent a letter to Yao Qianyuan to give to Pei Ning.
"Why did that bitch hook up with Yang Shu?" Yao Qianyuan received the letter and was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
She had never dealt with Gai Yingqiu before, and then Gai Yingqiu established the foundation. Now she got her wish and got closer to Yang Shu. Yao Qianyuan was very unconvinced.
"How do I know?" Lin Bai gave her a bottle of Tiger Wolf Pills and went to Qiaoshan School.
When I got there, I didn't go to Qingyun Mountain first. Instead, I went to tell Sister Huanhuan what was on my mind.
After soothing his mood, Lin Bai felt much better, and then went to look for Gu Yao.
When they came to the cave under Gu Qingshui's butt, there was another person besides Gu Yao.
This man was extremely old, with white hair and white eyebrows, and a white beard longer than Gu Yao's hair.
His face was dry, his eyes were cloudy, and his hands were as skinny as bones.
Only a kind smile appeared on his face.
This person is in the Golden Core realm, sitting cross-legged on the edge of a small pool, with Gu Yao kneeling beside him.
"Lin Zhuanlun pays homage to senior." Lin Bai bowed and saluted.
"No need to be polite." The old man waved slightly, indicating to come forward.
Lin Bai quickly stepped forward and knelt down beside him.
The old man took Lin Bai's hand, then took Gu Yao's hand, and pressed their hands together, "A talented man and a beautiful woman, Yao'er, don't bully others."
What kind of mandarin duck chart is this? From the oldest to the youngest, the Gu family is unreliable! Lin Bai didn't have any temper at all, not to mention he didn't have any thoughts about Gu Yao, but he did... really didn't.
Gu Yao immediately took her hand out, and Lin Bai also stopped it in embarrassment.
"Is this person old and confused?" Lin Bai asked Gu Yao with his eyes.
Gu Yao couldn't understand, so she just said helplessly: "Ancestor, he has his own Taoist companion, don't point fingers at the mandarin ducks!"
"So what if you have a Taoist companion? Just be happy." The old man looked at it openly.
"Senior, I and Senior Sister Gu are good friends and have no evil intentions." Lin Bai immediately expressed his determination.
It's not that he disliked Gu Yao, but he just slapped Aunt Gu on the back. Lin Bai disliked Gu Yao for being too young and tasteless.
It's boring to look for Gu Yao, but if you want to look for him, just look for the Yuan Ying ancestor of Gu Yao's family.
"That's it." The old cultivator sighed.
Lin Bai didn't understand what the old cultivator was doing here. Anyway, he just pretended to be an honest person.
The Gu family had folded a batch of golden elixirs before. Lin Bai had only seen Gu Jinzhen and Gu Jiuzhong, but this was the first time he met them.
However, judging from his appearance, I am afraid that his life is almost over and he may not be able to live for more than a few years.
Gu Yao patiently introduced him immediately.
This person is indeed a member of the Gu family, named Gu Laoquan. In terms of mortal seniority, he is Gu Qingshui's grandfather, and he is already 520 years old this year.
The golden elixir monk has a life span of five hundred. However, most of them live less than 500 years, because old injuries have damaged their vitality, or they may have lost their lives like Lu Qingyin. However, there are also those who have a long life span and live an extra twenty or thirty years. This type of people either take life-extending elixirs and herbs, such as Wannian Dan and Evergreen Dan; or they have differences in their destiny and use magical powers to extend their life, such as longevity trees, ivy, etc.
However, Lin Bai naturally admired the golden elixir that could live five hundred and twenty years.
"Xiao Shui said you have some talent in the art of formation." Gu Laoquan looked at Lin Bai with cloudy eyes.
Xiao Shui? Auntie Gu? Lin Bai understood that he was here to preach.
Previously, he had to pass on the book "Enter the Formation". Lin Bai only studied the first seven formations intensively, but he had not yet figured out the rest and needed someone to guide him.
"This junior is stupid and only has a little experience." Lin Bai was very humble.
"There are many methods and skills. If you can choose the right path, that's a good thing." Gu Laoquan sighed, his eyes seemed to see through time, "Speaking of which, I have also gone astray."
Lin Bai and Gu Yao sat up straight, looking like they were all listening.
This old man has lived for such a long time, so he must have countless life experiences to impart, and Lin and Gu are naturally willing to listen.
"I'm stupid, I don't know anything! I only opened two spiritual orifices, and I'm still in the third level of Qi training when I'm over thirty."
Gu Laoquan's voice was low and a bit old-fashioned, "There is no other way. Ancestor said you should learn how to make talismans, but looking at those ghostly talismans made me sleepy, and I was kicked out by the instructor within a month." ”
"I don't want to give up. I'm not good at it, so I just want to learn a craft and raise a few beautiful wives. I went to learn how to grow spiritual plants and destroyed a few of my ancestor's new seedlings, so I was kicked out again."
"Later, my ancestor sent me to make elixirs. I burned the furnace for half a year, and my face was as black as coal. Several girls I liked stopped interacting with me. I was very angry, so I made a furnace of elixirs and tried them. Fortunately, my senior brother from the Zhu family was here, otherwise I would have confessed on the spot.”
"My ancestor saw that I was not good at the Dao and had no ability to learn arts, so he sent me to Santongfang to be a scholar. As a result, I was deceived by a few casual cultivators and defrauded me of many pills. It was not a honey trap, but a set up to deceive me into being ignorant. ! ”
"I really had no choice but to be put into solitary confinement again. When I was free, I looked for two books on how to get started with formations. Unexpectedly, I found one. This is how a dragon enters the sea and a tiger enters the mountains!"
"It's hard to get started with formations, but it's hard to master them. I never dared to think of practicing formations before."
Gu Laoquan talked about the past for a long time, and Lin Bai and Gu Yao listened with interest.
This is the child of the Yuanying family. If it were a casual cultivator, how could he keep trying and making mistakes again and again? He had been beaten to death by his elders long ago.
"The book about 'entering the battlefield' was compiled by a senior?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
"I want to be that capable," Gu Laoquan pointed at the top of the cave with all his strength, "Can I let Xiao Shui sit on my head? Can I let Jiuyin Mountain kick my nose into my face?"
Neither Lin Bai nor Gu Yao dared to say anything. Gu Laoquan didn't have a good life for a few days, so he naturally said what he wanted to say, but Lin and Gu didn't have the courage, so they just pretended not to hear.
"Speaking of which, Xiao Shui is also a bitch. When she was a child, she even asked me for advice on formations. Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Gu Laoquan shook his head, obviously looking down on Gu Qingshui's abilities.
"Old Ancestor," Gu Yao lost her temper and pulled his sleeve and said, "You are here today just to preach, aren't you? Lin Zhuanlun and I are waiting for you!"
"I can't say preaching, but I just lived a few days and saw a few powerful formations." Gu Laoquan actually became humble.
"Then let's start, ancestor!" Gu Yao said with a smile.
"Start?" Gu Laoquan opened his cloudy eyes, "This place is too small to set up a big formation."
"Where to go?" Gu Yao asked.
Gu Laoquan looked towards the door, and Gu Yao quickly helped him up.
"Go to the most suitable place." Gu Laoquan trembled and moved forward.
After exiting the cave door, Gu Laoquan took out a flying boat, which was only more than a foot long and half a foot wide.
There were cloud patterns and water waves on the flying boat. "Come here." He grabbed Lin Bai and said, "I will show you the way."
After getting on the flying boat, many high-grade spiritual stones were stuffed into them. The clouds dispersed and covered the flying boat.
The clouds rose and slowly moved toward the northeast.
The flying boat hid in the clouds and traveled for a day. Lin Bai finally understood where he was going.
"What's the point of setting up battles at home and playing house all day long? Try it yourself next time and get a kill. It's better than anything else." Gu Laoquan laughed.
Gu Yao was not a fool. She probably knew where she was going. She was not afraid, but had high morale.
The flying boat continued to move forward, sometimes moving and sometimes stopping.
Lin Bai had always felt nothing in his heart, Gu Yao became more and more silent, but Gu Laoquan became more and more energetic, and he would see a sinister smile from time to time.
Arriving two hundred miles away from Cangyun Gate, the clouds fell to the ground and took the shape of a flying boat.
The three of them got off the ground. Gu Laoquan took out a bell and handed it to Gu Yao.
"If someone approaches within one mile, there will be a warning." Gu Laoquan grabbed Lin Bai again and said, "These days, you are a bit better than Yao'er in discussing formation methods. You are also easy to talk to, so I guess you can seduce him. People are capable, right? Why don’t you like Yaoyao?”
"..." Lin Bai understood Gu Laoquan's temperament and could only bite the bullet and said: "I would like to see the killing array of seniors."
Gu Laoquan chuckled and led the two of them forward. "I'm familiar with this place. I've been here countless times and I'm very familiar with it."
He had already explored the way.
Stop and go, be careful. After bypassing Cangyun Gate and coming to the woods by the sea, the three of them stopped on the only road from Jiuyin Mountain to Cangyun Gate.
"The formation needs to take advantage of the momentum." Gu Laoquan looked at the sea and saw rolling waves and sand gulls on the beach. He smiled and said: "The offshore water is strong and windy, so it is natural to take advantage of it."
He sat cross-legged under a tree on the coast, took out the array diagram, and explained to Lin Bai and Gu Yao the trend of spiritual energy and weather changes here.
After talking for a long time, Lin and Gu didn't know what formation they were going to set up. They just followed the instructions and worked on their own.
"You don't need to understand it at this time. You only have to do it once and you will gain something. As for your future achievements, it depends on yourself."
Gu Laoquan commanded the two of them without hesitation. It was obvious that he had already understood the geography of this place.
Ten miles along the coast, three busy days and nights.
With Gu Laoquan as the center of the formation, the formation was finally completed.
Gu Laoquan took out a round object the size of a head and placed it on the center of the formation.
"If you want to capture a golden elixir, why do you need to work so hard? But if you want to trap Nascent Soul, you need the demon elixir to help!" Gu Laoquan's eyes were not cloudy and his face was crazy.
The so-called demon elixir is generated in the body after the demonic beast has achieved the golden elixir.
The demon elixir has endless magical uses and is an important item in making natal magic weapons. It can be used in various ways, mainly depending on the type of demon beast.
If used elsewhere, it would be wonderful. It's just that the demon elixirs are taken from demonic beasts. They have violent auras and have different attributes. Ordinary people cannot take advantage of their power. Only the golden elixirs can use them.
The demon pill that Gu Laoquan took out had layers of ripples on it, and instead of being violent, it had a peaceful air.
"This..." Gu Yao was still a little confused, "Ancestor, we have set up a formation, but the formation won't move, how can we coax people in?"
"No hurry, no rush." Gu Laoquan crushed a jade pendant, "A good defender hides under the nine earths, and a good attacker moves above the nine heavens. If we hide, there will be people to attack." He looked at him lovingly. Gu Yao said: "Silly boy, you don't really think that with a formation, we old and young can cause trouble for Yuan Ying's advanced cultivation, do you?"
Gu Yao said nothing, raised her head and looked east.
I saw the clouds and mist breaking over the sea, and someone seemed to be coming from a very far distance.
The figure arrived in an instant, but stopped after entering the formation.
"My Gu family was deceived before, but now it's the other way around!" Gu Laoquan pressed his hand on the monster, "Chengyu Pingbo Formation, start!"
His white hair was tumbling endlessly, and his face, which had only skin left, became even thinner.
"Lu Haike!" A cold voice came as the blue waves cut across the sky.
