Almost all the monks who come to Forbidden Mountain and climb the road to heaven are interested in the Tao.
There are even many who had considerable attainments in formations before they came here.
When they started climbing, most of them skipped the first one thousand meters. From about one thousand meters on, the speed began to slow down.
Like Lin Zheyu, it has been almost a month and he is still wandering around 900 meters.
This speed is simply outrageously slow.
"Don't underestimate others."
The middle-aged monk next to the man said calmly.
After hearing the middle-aged monk's words, the man curled his lips, obviously not taking it seriously.
"This person should be a beginner."
"As a warrior, I'm new to the formation. With such speed, I'm still so-so, at least at a mid-level level."
"If he is willing to switch to the path of immortality and study the methods of formation, many sects and forces will probably follow him."
"But as for Si Tianjian, I'm afraid there is no chance."
The middle-aged monk said calmly.
Although in the Wei Dynasty, each of the major sects had their own formation monks trained by them.
But in the entire Wei Dynasty, the Wei family has the strongest formation foundation and strength.
This huge forbidden mountain alone puts other sect forces beyond reach.
"Is it really that powerful?"
"But not long after I started learning the formation, my speed on climbing the road to heaven was much faster than his."
When the man heard the middle-aged monk's praise, he had a look of disbelief on his face.
Even when he first started practicing formations, his progress was not as slow as the guy above.
"whispering sound……"
"Xiao Jiaqiang, don't be fooled by your uncle..."
The middle-aged woman next to the man smiled and said: "With your uncle's eyes, it's strange that you can see that man's potential from such a distance."
The beautiful woman sneered: "Your uncle just happened to recognize that person."
"Ahem..."
The middle-aged monk coughed twice and did not argue. His face was slightly red.
"oh?"
"Please ask Auntie Master to clear up the confusion!"
Zhang Jiaqiang immediately became interested.
"Although I have never met this person, I have heard about him."
"This person's name is Xiao Yu. He is a new talented warrior in the Martial Alliance. I heard that he has opened the three great sacred treasures and awakened his spiritual powers."
"I heard that it is a spiritual power of perception."
"Perception-type spiritual powers are extremely precious to Taoist monks."
"As long as his array talent is not terrible and he is willing to switch to the immortal path, I am afraid Si Tianjian will be willing to accept him."
The middle-aged beautiful woman said with a smile.
Among the monks, a lot of news about Xiao Yu has been circulating recently.
Among them, there is a story about Xiao Yu awakening his magical power, his strength improving rapidly, and he seems to have obtained a huge chance treasure, etc.
The message was conveyed in a precise and realistic manner.
"so smart!"
"His perceptual spiritual powers, and the pupil technique that you asked us to practice since we were young..."
Before Zhang Jiaqiang finished speaking, he was interrupted by the beautiful woman: "Ahem, that is a spiritual power, how can it be comparable to ordinary eye skills."
"At least we need those top-notch pupil training secrets to have any chance!"
"hiss--"
Zhang Jiaqiang and several companions around him took a deep breath and looked at Lin Zheyu's figure that was as slow as a snail, their eyes completely changed.
The Martial Alliance is not very famous in the monk world, but it is not too bad either.
After all, it is a force with the power to transform into gods.
However, due to the special reasons of martial arts, immortal cultivators have a natural sense of superiority towards warriors.
“Interesting~”
A monk in green clothes looked at Lin Zheyu's back and sneered.
"Do you think the rumors are true?" the companion next to the monk in green asked with interest.
"Who knows~"
"Whether it's true or not, don't get involved in this kind of thing."
"And with our strength, there is nothing we can do against each other." The monk in green shrugged.
Lin Zheyu didn't know much about what happened at the foot of Forbidden Mountain.
He doesn't care either.
at this time.
Lin Zheyu was immersed in understanding and breaking the formation.
The golden energy rolling in the sea of consciousness surges toward the spiritual eye.
The recovery speed of golden energy simply cannot meet the speed of consumption.
This forced Lin Zheyu to only open his spiritual eyes at critical moments, and then close them immediately after observing the formation clearly.
Then while restoring the golden energy in the body, he thought about ways to break the formation.
Suddenly.
Lin Zheyu's eyes narrowed slightly, with a happy look on his face.
The qi and blood in the body surged and poured into the joined index and middle fingers. Then, using the fingers as pens and the power of qi and blood as ink, a miniature formation was carved in the void.
After a dozen breaths.
The miniature formation was condensed, but it only lasted less than ten breaths before dissipating in the void.
"Using the power of Qi and blood to condense into forbidden runes, it is too difficult to engrave formations. This kind of energy is not suitable for inscribing formations and prohibitions."
Lin Zheyu shook his head slightly.
His progress is so slow because he has a low starting point and wants to lay a solid foundation.
It is also because it is difficult to condense the forbidden runes using the power of Qi and blood.
Although they are both energy, the power of Qi and blood and the spiritual power cultivated by immortal cultivators are essentially different.
The power of qi and blood mainly acts on the physical body and is the energy source of the physical body.
The uses of spiritual power are even broader.
Using the power of Qi and blood to condense forbidden runes and inscribe formations is thousands of times more difficult than using spiritual power.
"However, there is no way..."
Lin Zheyu murmured secretly.
Thoughts moved slightly.
The energy and spirit in the body merged with a wisp of martial arts will, condensing the gray power of true energy.
He has not used this kind of power for a long time.
With the improvement of strength, martial arts gradually return to its original nature. After returning to the physical body, the true essence is abandoned and returns to the most fundamental power of Qi and blood.
The foundation of martial arts lies in the physical body.
As the divine treasure is opened and the shackles are broken away, the warrior's physical body will undergo tremendous transformation and improvement.
At this time, the power of true energy, oh no, it is just true energy for ordinary warriors.
The power of true energy cannot keep up with the rapid improvement of the physical body.
The most suitable energy that can exert the power of the physical body is the power of Qi and blood.
Therefore, qi and blood once again replaced true qi and became the most fundamental energy for warriors.
Wisps of gray true energy flowed out from Lin Zheyu's fingers, re-engraving the formation just now.
Using true energy to condense forbidden runes and inscribe formations is indeed much less difficult than using qi and blood.
But it still can't compare with spiritual power.
"break!"
Lin Zheyu drank lightly.
The formation formed by condensing true energy quickly floated towards the formation in front, and the two formations collided with each other in an instant.
Just hearing a pop, the formation on the way to the sky burst like a bubble, turning into dots of energy starlight.
The formations on the way to the sky are all condensed by the forbidden runes condensed by mana.
This is specially used for formation monks to understand and practice.
The power is thousands of times weaker than that of large-scale formations made of high-quality materials and engraved with the trend of the earth's veins.
However, the difficulty of condensation is low and the cost is low, so it is just suitable for the formation monks to understand and practice.
"It's a thousand meters..."
"Each Ascension Conference in Forbidden Mountain is only open for three months. I don't know where I can go."
Lin Zheyu looked up at the end of the road to heaven and murmured to himself.
It took him about a month to climb one thousand meters.
There is no way, the foundation is too poor.
Comprehension of the Formation Dao and incorporating its principles into the martial arts divine patterns is different from direct and systematic practice of the Formation Dao.
The biggest difference is that there is no way to use source power.
actually.
Integrating the learned principles of formation into the martial arts divine patterns and into the martial arts system is much more difficult than practicing formation.
This involves the integration of two different cultivation systems.
It's just that Lin Zheyu's use of Yuan Li greatly shortened the process.
But now, he can only rely on himself.
Rested for more than ten breaths.
Lin Zheyu began to continue climbing.
This forbidden mountain is very interesting. Every grass, every tree, and every stone is made of forbidden and formation methods.
"It's incredible..."
"The essence of these flowers, plants, stones, and trees does not seem to be formations, but the transformation of independent or two or three restrictions."
"The restriction can be so powerful that it is so terrifying!"
Lin Zheyu murmured softly.
As he observed and studied the Forbidden Mountain, he became more and more frightened by the owner of the Forbidden Mountain.
Restriction is the basis of formation.
This is a special forbidden rune that is condensed and formed using spiritual power through a special method, and is engraved with the texture of the avenue.
It is difficult for a single restriction to exert much power. Most of them are restricted runes drawn into a formation and used.
However.
Lin Zheyu saw that the stones, vegetation, and soil in the Forbidden Mountain were all composed of pure prohibition.
Then, the power of restriction contained in these plants, soil, stones, etc. formed one formation after another to restrict each other.
The complexity is so complex that even if Lin Zheyu has spiritual eyes, his head will hurt just by looking at it.
That is a sign of information overload and impact on the soul.
In other words, with Lin Zheyu's current strength, he is not even qualified to understand the formation restrictions in the Forbidden Mountain.
He is still too weak.
Phew~~
Breathe softly.
Calm your mind again and get rid of distracting thoughts in your mind.
Lin Zheyu refocused his attention on the new formation in front of him.
The spiritual eye in the sea of consciousness suddenly opened, and traces of energy flow appeared in Lin Zheyu's consciousness.
This formation is the Wooden Formation, which is an extremely basic formation with the wood attribute.
The formations within two thousand meters are all first-order formations. These formations can be regarded as basic formations.
These basic formations have almost every attribute, covering all formation types.
However, if you want to climb the road to heaven, you don't need to break or untie all the formations.
You only need to choose the formation in a certain direction that you want to study.
Most monks choose this way.
As for Lin Zheyu.
He refused to refuse anyone who came, and studied all the formations that appeared on the way to the sky one by one.
Then untie it and break it.
because.
Lin Zheyu didn't know which formation path direction to develop in order to help improve the martial arts divine patterns.
In this case, it is better to master all the formations before proceeding.
If other formation monks knew Lin Zheyu's idea, they would probably call him a madman.
…
Time passes slowly.
More than a month has passed.
Lin Zheyu finally completed the 2,000-meter first-level formation area and entered the second-level formation area.
The prohibition runes that make up the first-level formation are all very basic prohibition runes.
Lin Zheyu spent two months studying all the first-order formations and deciphering them.
If he was just a foundation-building monk, it would take him two months to enter the second-level formation area, and his talent would be considered average.
But Lin Zheyu is a warrior in the shackles realm, and his realm is equivalent to that of a golden elixir monk.
With a level comparable to the golden elixir, it took him two months to comprehend the first-level formations equivalent to Qi training before he could get out of the first-level formations area.
Such speed and such qualifications are extremely bad.
But this is the view of ordinary monks under the Forbidden Mountain.
For those who are interested, they find an interesting trick in it.
That is, it stands to reason that as the distance to climb becomes larger and larger, the difficulty of the formation will also increase.
The monk's climbing speed will be greatly reduced.
However, Lin Zheyu's speed not only did not slow down, but actually accelerated a lot!
"The forbidden runes involved in the second-level formation are indeed more complicated."
"Of these prohibition runes, only a few of the core runes have increased in complexity. The rest are still composed of the basic prohibition runes that make up the first-order formation."
Lin Zheyu stood two thousand meters away from the Climbing Road, observing the second-order formation and thinking to himself.
He has seen more powerful formations, analyzed them, and understood the mysteries contained in them.
But at that time, Lin Zheyu's perspective of understanding was different.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He mainly understood the forbidden runes involved in the formation, which forces of heaven and earth rules were leveraged, and in what way they were coordinated, thus exerting powerful power.
Lin Zheyu mainly mastered the principles, and then integrated the principles contained in them into the martial arts divine patterns.
Therefore, his understanding of forbidden runes is not very deep.
If you want to completely master the forbidden runes and formations, you need to study and master them step by step from the shallower to the deeper.
The same forbidden runes play different roles in different formations.
If you want to fully master the usage and secrets of a certain forbidden rune, you need to understand the various types of formations it can form.
"In other words, the forbidden runes are not isolated. The power of forbidden runes that are complex to a certain extent can even be comparable to powerful formations."
"And where is my martial arts divine pattern..."
"In the array, forbidden runes are used as the basic runes, but the basic runes that make up the martial arts divine patterns are a bit complicated and do not form a system..."
"Not only that, the basic runes that make up the martial arts divine patterns cannot be like the forbidden runes, which can be continuously strengthened and improved until they are powerful enough to rival powerful formations..."
Lin Zheyu murmured secretly, thinking about the flaws of the martial arts divine patterns.
Only by deeply understanding a system similar to the martial arts divine runes can we understand what a powerful and perfect rune system looks like.
Only in this way can we better grasp the direction of improving the martial arts divine patterns in the future.
Now, Lin Zheyu already had some clues.
As for how to do it, he still needs to continue to explore.
"It's a pity that it only lasts three months, which is too short."
"With less than a month left, it shouldn't be a big problem to climb to 3,000 meters."
"I wonder if I'm qualified enough to join Si Tianjian's formation team as a martial artist."
Lin Zheyu murmured secretly.
He is quite reluctant to give up on this road to heaven, if he can stay here for a long time.
In less than ten years, Lin Zheyu was able to raise his formation attainments to the fourth level through his own self-study.
As for the fifth level, the power of its formation is comparable to that of a transformed god.
Lin Zheyu didn't have a clear understanding of the complexity of the fifth-level formation, so he wasn't very sure that he could master it in a short time.
"let's start……"
Lin Zheyu said softly.
The thought moved slightly, the spiritual eye reopened, and a new round of practice of understanding the formation, solving the formation, and breaking the formation began.
…
The mountainside of Forbidden Mountain.
A pretty woman in purple clothes stood on a towering tree.
A pair of cold eyes stared at the monk who was climbing the road to heaven.
Whoosh——
A white shadow flashed through the woods, and a handsome man in a white shirt landed gracefully next to the woman.
"Junior sister, have you found any good seeds?"
The man said with a smile.
The man's name is Wan Xiaofei and the woman's name is Xu Yiru. They are both monks from Si Tianjian.
Both of them joined Si Tianjian at a young age and became disciples of strong men from the Wei family in Si Tianjian.
Rather than other sect disciples who joined Si Tianjian later.
Therefore, the two of them are called brothers and sisters.
As for the foreign monks who join Si Tianjian from other sects, they are referred to as fellow Taoists.
"I found a few, but most of them are true disciples of those sects." Xu Yiru said lightly.
"There is no way. Those sects who are true array geniuses are like treasures. They are not allowed to join Si Tianjian at all for fear of being abducted."
"I don't even think about it. If you train them, you can't cultivate real geniuses. They can only disappear into the crowd. It's better to let them join Si Tianjian."
Wan Xiaofei shook his head, feeling that what those sects did was stupid.
He glanced at the monks who were climbing the road to heaven. There were quite a few who had climbed to the 10,000-meter mark this year.
However, these are not the candidates Si Tianjian recruits.
Just kidding, someone who can reach a distance of 10,000 meters has a strength comparable to that of a powerful god.
Wan Xiaofei's eyes mainly fell on the monks within six thousand meters.
Suddenly, an interesting look flashed in his eyes.
"Hey, there is actually a warrior participating this year, and he has almost climbed to three thousand meters."
"Not bad."
"It seems that this warrior is planning to take the path of fusion formation, but this path is much more difficult than other paths."
"However, it is extremely rare for a warrior to be able to climb three thousand meters."
Wan Xiaofei commented with a smile.
It's a pity that warriors are all stubborn and are unwilling to turn to the path of immortality unless they are desperate.
Otherwise, if this person were to switch to cultivating the Immortal Path, with his qualifications in the Formation Dao, he should be able to barely reach Si Tianjian's recruitment line.
"Well, this person's formation aptitude is indeed good." Xu Yiru heard this and nodded in agreement.
"Yes, it's just a pity that warriors are all a stubborn bunch and may not want to turn to the path of immortality."
Wan Xiaofei shook his head and said.
"No, even if he doesn't want to turn to the path of immortality, I still plan to summon him to Si Tianjian."
Xu Yiru said lightly.
She is one of the main persons in charge of this Forbidden Mountain Climb to Heaven trial, and gives ratings by observing the monks' performance on the Climb to Heaven.
Determine whether you have enough qualifications to enter Si Tianjian.
"ah?!"
Wan Xiaofei was slightly stunned, with a look of surprise on his face: "Junior sister, you are not joking, are you?"
"The power of a warrior's qi and blood is not suitable for condensing forbidden runes at all. Even the energy of true qi is only slightly better than the power of qi and blood."
"If he is unwilling to turn to the path of immortality, he may not even be able to condense the complex forbidden runes when he encounters them."
Wan Xiaofei said with some confusion.
For first-level, second-level, and even third-level formations, the prohibition runes that make up the formation are relatively simple.
It is still possible for warriors to use the true energy condensed by essence and spirit to condense it.
However, even after the forbidden runes contained in the third-level formation are condensed, it is very difficult to form a formation.
This is also the reason why none of the formation monks are warriors.
It's really because warriors themselves are not suitable for practicing formations.
"Senior brother, if you take a closer look, you will understand why."
Xu Yiru did not explain, but asked Wan Xiaofei to take a closer look.
