Chapter 94: The eleventh level of Qi training [Seeking further reading]
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it was July of the 24th year of the Ping Calendar. Wang Ping had spent three springs and autumns on Yinhuan Island.
In the past three years, he has never taken a step forward from Yinhuan Island.
Except for the several times during which monsters attacked coastal fishing villages, he used to kill monsters, he spent the rest of his time practicing in the cave.
After three years of practice, after taking all the remaining five "Blue Algae Pills", Wang Ping's cultivation level has also steadily improved to the eleventh level of Qi training, and he is only one step away from reaching the peak of Qi training.
At the same time, Xiaofeng successfully advanced half a year ago and became a first-class monster.
After reaching the eleventh level of Qi training, Wang Ping was no longer in a hurry.
According to the agreement, he had to stay in Yinhuan Island for seven years. Even if he didn't take a single spiritual pill during these seven years, he could steadily break through to the twelfth level of Qi training with the help of the Spirit Eye Stone.
After not rushing to improve his cultivation, Wang Ping focused on studying the formation again.
At that time, he saw two Jinshui Gate Foundation Establishment monks easily deploying a powerful formation using the array flag and array plate at the "Island Seizing Conference", and he was concerned about this matter.
If he can also refine the formation flag and formation plate by himself, then even if he encounters an enemy with a stronger cultivation level than himself in the future, he may not be able to defeat the formation battle.
However, there are very few records in "The Mountains and Rivers Array Strategy" about refining array flags and array plates. After studying for a while, Wang Ping found that he was basically unable to refine array flags and array plates based on the little records above.
This made him quite distressed and helpless.
Now he is no longer a novice in the Immortal Cultivation World with no news on Jinzhu Island. He understands very well how rare the formation scripts are in the Immortal Cultivation World.
Formation inheritance classics like "Mountain and River Formation", it is very difficult to buy in the market. Basically, only those sects and immortal cultivation families have such classics to collect.
The skills of refining array flags and array plates are even collected by those who master this skill as treasures, and it is impossible to spread it for ordinary casual cultivators to obtain it.
"It seems that if I want to obtain more formation books, I can either wait until I succeed in building the foundation in the future and leave the Qiansha Islands to collect it in a more prosperous place, or I can only wait until the ten-year garrison period expires and choose to join the Golden Shui Gate and get it from the Golden Shui Gate!"
There are two roads, but I don’t know how much time it takes to get through the previous road, but the latter road is very clear and clear.
There is no need to say much about how Wang Ping would choose.
Seven years left!
Wang Ping shook his head and continued to study the arrangement of the new formation.
Because the cave is located, there is already a "water mist maze array" arranged, Wang Ping wants to test the arrangement method of the new array, so he can only find another place.
Fortunately, he is the only one cultivator on Yinhuan Island now. He can choose the place where he can set up a formation on the island.
He rode the white feathers and flew several times in the mountains and found a suitable place to set up the formation.
It was a hilly area composed of twenty or thirty hills. The distance between each hill is within five or six miles, and there were many streams interspersed through it. It was indeed a good place to set up a formation.
The formation that Wang Ping is going to set up this time is called the "Shenyuan Thick Soil Formation", which is a "forbidden formation" that integrates attack, defense, transformation and control.
The so-called "forbidden formation" generally refers to a complex formation with complex arrangements and multiple formation functions.
Generally speaking, the mountain gates of each immortal cultivator will be protected by the "Forbidden Formation". That powerful "Forbidden Formation" can even enclose hundreds of miles of areas into the formation!
Of course, Wang Ping must not be able to arrange such a powerful formation.
Even the "Sunny Thick Soil Array" he was going to arrange this time was actually impossible to completely arrange it, because he didn't have many materials needed to deploy the array at all.
However, at this time, the one thing that different from other skills is reflected.
If you can refine weapons or alchemy, and you can't get the corresponding materials together, you can't even open the furnace.
However, if the formation is lacking, the corresponding materials can be deleted or replaced.
Although doing so will reduce the power of the formation, it can still arrange the formation.
Moreover, this arrangement can also allow the formation master to obtain relevant formation experience, which will be of great help to arrange real formations in the future.
Despite this, the arrangement of a "forbidden formation" is still not a simple matter.
After Wang Ping chose the place to set up the formation, he spent the rest of his practice on setting up this formation for a long time.
During the process of setting up the array, we naturally encountered various difficulties. When we actually do some things, we will find that they are very different from our previous expectations.
At this time, as a formation master, he needs to work hard to overcome these difficulties one by one and continue to arrange the formation.
These are normal situations.
Even if it is a formation master who can truly arrange the "Forbidden Formation" independently, and has a complete set of materials in hand, it is basically impossible to arrange a real "Forbidden Formation" without a year or two.
So Wang Ping set a time for himself for five years. Within five years, he could make this "Sank Abyss and Thick Earth Array" run, even if it was successful.
When people focus on something, they are always not easy to detect the passage of time.
In a blink of an eye, four years have passed when Wang Ping used the time to arrange the "Sunken Earth Formation".
Because there are not many materials to use for formation, Wang Ping used the formation master to use mountains, rivers as the formation base, which can be said to have achieved the ultimate goal.
In four years, he dug up seven hills, built five stone hills, filled three water piers, and shoveled thousands of acres of forests!
During this period, he also asked Xiaofeng and Bai Yu to take charge of Yinhuan Island instead of him, secretly went to Jinshafang Market, and spent 300 yuan of low-grade spirit stones to buy some spiritual jade and earthen yellow stones for array layout to refine the array plate.
After four years of this, Wang Ping finally completed the general structure of the "Sunken Earth Array".
Once the general structure of the formation is completed, the rest is some fine work, mainly to check for the missing and see where it needs to be improved and improved.
Wang Ping spent about half a year doing these tasks.
After four and a half years of hard work, the deleted version of the "Sun Abyss Thick Earth Array" was almost completed.
On the day when the formation was activated, Wang Ping also chose a good day with a beautiful and beautiful sunny day.
On a hill more than 70 meters high, Wang Ping carefully placed the main array plate refined from the earth-attributed spiritual object in his hand into the formation base that had been prepared long ago, and then quickly pinched the spell with both hands and chanted the spell, and played the activation technique towards the array plate.
Rumble!
With the sound of the shaking mountain, Wang Ping's hill began to shake slightly, and the main array plate in front of him began to release dazzling yellow glow.
At the same time, more than a dozen mountains around which Wang Ping'an had placed the array plate quickly began to shake and each released a yellow glow that soared into the sky.
At this time, Wang Ping quickly changed the magic trick, using the main array plate as the guide, pulling the power released by the surrounding array plates, slowly allowing the power of the formation to spread around the array base.
Because there were no spiritual veins in the place where the formation was arranged, this spread became very slow, so in order to replenish his magic power, Wang Ping had to take out the middle-grade spiritual stone that he had obtained from Sun Renli to absorb the spiritual power inside to replenish his magic power.
After this lasted for almost half a day, the yellow glow had almost completed half of the area covered by Wang Ping's formation.
But his mana consumes a lot and it is impossible for him to last another half a day.
Before this, Wang Ping did not expect that just activate this deleted array with one-tenth of the power of the original "Shenyuan Thick Earth Formation", it would consume so much of his magic power.
This is a problem caused by his lack of experience, so he is now in a dilemma.
If he enters, his magic power will definitely not be able to support the formation to fully operate.
But if you retreat, those array disks that can only be used once will be scrapped.
If he wants to try again in the future, he not only needs to buy the materials again, but also spend at least a year to make and craft the game plate.
"No matter what, I can't waste my hard work this year. It's time to last until the time!"
Wang Ping felt cruel in his heart and immediately gritted his teeth and struggled to hold on.
After half a day passed, when nearly 70% of the formation was activated, Wang Ping's magic power finally came to an end.
At this time, no matter how unwilling he was in his heart, he could only stop for his own life and future paths.
But just as he was about to stop, a large amount of spiritual energy suddenly gushed out of an area that had just been covered by the formation light, and it was quickly absorbed and converted into the formation light by a nearby formation array.
What's going on?
Where did those aura come from?
Wang Ping looked at the area where the spiritual energy surged out with a look of confusion in his eyes.
During the past few years of setting up the array, he has explored this area countless times. If there were any spiritual veins or places where spiritual energy gathered underground, it would be impossible to hide it from him!
However, although he was full of doubt, because the sudden surge of spiritual energy helped Wang Ping saw a glimmer of hope.
He immediately ignored the severe pain caused by the meridians and dantian in his body, and continued to desperately squeeze out the last little magic power in his body. With the help of the sudden burst of spiritual energy, it took less than a quarter of an hour to cover the remaining 30% of the area.
