Chapter 432 Sword Formation
Li Chuan immediately walked quickly into the semicircle. He turned back to confirm: "Is this here?"
Elder Mi gave a gentle "hmm" and then turned around Mu Ling said: "Let's get started."
Li Chuan watched Mu Ling make a few hand seals, then kept his posture motionless and stared ahead.
He followed Mu Ling's line of sight and looked forward. Dozens of swords suddenly rose into the sky in front of him, intertwining into a sword formation in the air, constantly changing.
A fierce sword intent spread out from the sword formation.
The sword formation began to move.
A string of flying swords passed in front of Li Chuan very quickly, and then spread out in all directions.
Li Chuan watched it for a while and found it quite interesting, so he simply sat down cross-legged and watched it quietly. He carefully counted the swords in the sword array. The swords flew too fast. It took him several times to count them before he realized that there were indeed only twenty-seven, but they were dancing with the momentum of hundreds.
He looked at Mu Ling again.
Mu Ling's expression was solemn, and the movements of his hands were no longer as light as before. Every move seemed to be as heavy as a thousand pieces. Li Chuan was afraid of disturbing Mu Ling, so he turned around and continued to appreciate the changes in the sword array.
After watching for a long time, he became familiar with several routines of the sword formation. Li Chuan gradually felt a little bored. He kept raising his head and his neck felt a little sore. So he changed his sitting position and looked at the swords on the island one by one.
Sunlight and sword light were constantly refracted on the tens of thousands of swords. After looking at it for a while, Li Chuan felt dizzy and his eyes were swollen.
So he began to study the rune patterns winding on the ground.
Li Chuan recognized some runes, from which he deduced that the entire island was made of sword formations. Subconsciously, he concentrated slightly and entered a mysterious state. The runes on the ground Vin moved in his field of vision.
He wanted to close his eyes and escape. He needs to take a good rest now, regain his energy, and try to refine the 'Full Moon' in one fell swoop when he returns to Jinyang Peak.
At this time, the sword formation controlled by Mu Ling passed by his eyes again.
This time, Li Chuan saw clearly the structure of the sword array. The twenty-seven swords were constantly changing around three points. In the field of vision, runes and sword formations unfolded layer by layer. As he watched, he confirmed it with the 'full moon' structure he had memorized in his mind.
He had just had some ideas when the sword formation flew past. Li Chuan got out of his state, stood up, turned around and stared at Mu Ling.
Mu Ling was still focused on the sword formation.
Elder Mi saw Li Chuan's expression, walked slowly to him, and asked: "What did you see?"
Li Chuan thought for a while, shook his head, and asked: "This sword formation, Can I learn?"
Hearing this, Elder Mi looked him up and down and said honestly: "I can't learn."
"I know," Li said. Chuan Ye said honestly: "I just learned something from Brother Mu's sword formation, which can solve some of my recent doubts, so I want to learn it."
He had also thought about 'Yuan' before. There may be some kind of formation of the gods in the middle of the moon. He had looked for information in the library before, and also went to the weapon refining hall to seek advice from monks who were good at formations, but he found nothing.
Today he saw the sword formation by accident, and he knew that he had been looking in the wrong direction before.
Hearing what Li Chuan said, Elder Mi asked: "How do you plan to learn it?"
"Is there any sword manual that I can look at?" Li Chuan asked.
Elder Mi shook his head and said: "No." He looked into the distance and said: "Everything in the sword array is on this sword island. You can walk around as you like. As for how much you can understand. , It’s up to you.”
Li Chuan thinks it’s okay.
When he was about to walk out, he saw semicircular patterns on the ground again. He asked: "Is it dangerous to walk on the island?"
"Yes." Elder Mi said.
Li Chuan immediately retracted the leg he just took. He was going to refine the 'Full Moon' and go to Yashan County, and he was wondering if he could go back to Yunqiao Township on the way, but he couldn't afford to lie down again. He glanced in the direction of Mu Ling. If that didn't work, then after he finished today, he could choose a day and ask him to control the sword array to revolve around him for hundreds or thousands of times.
Then he noticed that Elder Mi was looking at him, so he said directly: "Elder Mi, can you demonstrate a sword formation for me?"
"Okay." Elder Mi said. When he raised his hand, all the swords on the sword island trembled.
“Wait a minute.” Li Chuan said.
Elder Mi looked at him.
Li Chuan asked: "Can there be less swords?"
"How many?" Elder Mi asked.
Li Chuan thought for a while and asked: "How many can he control at the beginning?"
Elder Mi knew that Li Chuan was referring to Mu Ling, and he replied: "Twenty-seven."
>"There have always been twenty-seven swords..."
Elder Mi explained: "He realized the way of sword formation in Cuoyu Canyon. The sword formation he saw at that time was twenty-seven swords. A sword formation composed of swords. He learned the sword formation from me, and I couldn't teach him much. I just guided him to constantly recall his feelings that day."
"It doesn't matter if you can control a few. Importantly, even monks who don't use swords at all can still control many swords with their concentration. For them, it doesn't matter whether it is a sword or a flying stone. As for the sword formation, the important thing is the formation. Not a sword.”
"As long as it can be formed into a formation, it doesn't matter whether it's a handful or tens of millions." Elder Mi said.
Li Chuan also said clearly: "There are too many swords for me to see."
After thinking for a while, Elder Mi said: "I understand." As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chuan heard a cracking sound in the air, and he quickly looked in the direction of the sound. What caught the eye was twenty-seven swords gathered together, surrounded by a halo of light, and thrust towards the sky.
Boom.
Li Chuan saw a beam of light falling from the clouds. Twenty-seven swords shattered in the light, and the fragments fell one after another.
He quickly went to see Mu Ling.
Mu Ling's face was red, and while wiping sweat with his sleeves, he said: "It's still a little bit close. I thought I could do it today, but it looks like I'll make you laugh next time."
Li Chuan said: "Call me again next time."
"Okay, but it will take a few days," Mu Ling agreed, "I think every step I took was right. Why? It doesn't work..."
"Look at it," Elder Mi said, "Nephew Master Mu, take a look at it, the only thing you're missing is a little detail."
Li Chuan and Mu Ling stopped talking and focused on watching Elder Mi do what he did.
As Elder Mi's gestures changed, a sword flew out from among the swords and slowly surrounded them, then a second one, a third one, and finally nine swords.
Li Chuan watched intently.
When Elder Mi deliberately slowed down, Li Chuan finally saw it clearly. He saw some rules in it. In his mind, there were also some big circles with three small circles inside them. Constantly combining and changing.
It wasn’t until the sky turned completely dark on Jiandao that Elder Mi stopped the demonstration. He said: "Let's come here today."
Li Chuan and Mu Ling thanked each other.
