Chapter 535 Gathering Spirits
Among ascetics, the most widely spread is the yellow-rank Taoism, but for ordinary ascetics, it is extremely luxurious to have the yellow-rank Taoism.
Mr. Du helped Li Xiao a lot. The two of them talked from early morning to noon. Only then did Mr. Du say, "That's all about monks, and that's what your grandfather told me."
"Mr. Du, thank you for your hard work." Li Xiao bought two bottles of water from the store and handed one to Mr. Du, "If it wasn't for you, I really don't know who to ask about this."
"Hehe, don't thank me. If it wasn't for your grandfather, the graves of the Liu family and I would have already grown grass, haha." Elder Du said kindly, "Come on, son, I'll teach you another skill."
"Ah?" Li Xiao was suddenly excited, "Okay, tell me, Mr. Du, I'm all ears."
Du Mingqing picked up a stone from the ground, came to the lawn where there were no flowers and plants, but only soil, and said: "In this era, the aura in the world is too thin. When an old friend of mine traveled around the world, he accidentally got a broken formation. This Formation can extract the aura contained in medicinal materials."
While talking, Du Mingqing used stones to draw in the soil, and after a while, he drew a strange figure.
The figure is like a corner, but it is also extremely complicated, and it seems to contain many things.
Taking a closer look, Li Xiao felt as if he had seen this picture somewhere.
Soon, Du Mingqing stopped, and then took out a plant of Codonopsis ginseng with some ideas from his small world and placed it in the center of the formation.
The spiritual energy activated the formation, and the formation immediately glowed with a faint light, and the Codonopsis was also drying up at the speed of the naked eye.
Inside the Dangshen, a cloud of spiritual energy emerged and followed the formation into his body.
Li Xiao's eyes were straightened, this formation is simply not too good, if he learns it, it will be like adding wings to a tiger.
Because the spiritual energy between the heaven and the earth is too thin, Li Xiao will feel very strenuous every time he absorbs the spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy absorbed in daily life is not as much as that absorbed from antiques and fungus on the mountain several times back then.
At first Li Xiao thought that he could absorb the aura of objects at any time, but after a long time he discovered that the reason why he could absorb the aura of antiques and fungus before was because the aura was related to his clairvoyant eyes.
Once the clairvoyant eye is successfully upgraded, it will gradually become unabsorbable.
Just like now, even if an ancient antique is placed in front of Li Xiao, he can't absorb the golden aura inside.
"This formation is called the spirit-gathering formation." Seeing that Li Xiao was a little excited, Du Mingqing picked up the half-dried Codonopsis ginseng and explained to him, "This is just an incomplete formation. The aura in the medicinal materials cannot be completely absorbed. But it's enough for us."
"Come on, come and try."
Du Mingqing taught Li Xiao to set up the formation hand in hand.
However, the formation method is not as simple as Du Mingqing's painting seems to be. To set up this formation method, not only must the use of aura be used when drawing, but even the strength of each stroke must be accurately grasped.
"In addition to strength, you also need to choose the right location, and you must move the truth between heaven and earth."
"Evoking the truth of heaven and earth?"
"Well, this thing is more mysterious. To put it simply, it is like some popular software now. These software need to be compiled to produce code. Code is aura. What we are doing now is to compile it. Taoism is also the same principle. Different Compile, there will be different effects."
Li Xiao nodded, with the stones in his hand non-stop, fiddling on the ground.
It has been more than 30 times, and every time in the middle of the painting, the formation text will collapse because of the excessive use of spiritual energy, or too low level.
For the 60th time, Li Xiao could barely paint three-fifths of it.
For the eightieth time, Li Xiao's hand hurts, and he has already succeeded four out of five times.
It took Li Xiao a total of 130 times to draw the last fifth.
It was easy for others to do, but when Li Xiao came by himself, he was so tired that if he were an ordinary person, his fingers would be worn out.
After the formation is drawn, it is necessary to determine whether it can be operated. Under Du Mingqing's signal, Li Xiao put his hand on the eye of the formation with excitement, quietly instilling spiritual energy.
call!
A small whirlwind blew past, shaking the soil around the formation, and purple-gold aura burst out from the soil instantly, and at the same time, the formation emitted a gentle purple-gold light.
Seeing this scene, Du Mingqing was a little excited, and took out another medicinal plant and put it into the spirit gathering array.
The moment the medicinal materials were put in, they dried up quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the aura floated out from inside and entered Li Xiao's body.
"Successful, it succeeded once..."
Du Mingqing's eyes widened, staring straight at the gathering spirit array.
Deep inside he was broken.
Li Xiao has drawn more than a hundred times, and when he first learned this formation, it took him half a month.
Just painting, half a month.
When running the formation, he often made mistakes. It took him more than a month from learning the formation to fully mastering it.
However, Li Xiao only used it more than a hundred times, and succeeded immediately after the painting was completed.
How can this prevent Du Mingqing from being shocked, everyone likes to compare themselves, seeing a young junior surpassing him easily, still feels somewhat uncomfortable.
Soon, Du Mingqing's mood returned to normal. After all, he is also a person who has experienced a lot of troubles, so it's not like he can't bear even this little thing.
"As expected of the descendants of Master Nine, you are amazing!" Du Mingqing praised sincerely, "Given time, it will become a great weapon."
"What a master." Li Xiao muttered dissatisfied, "It takes so long to learn a formation."
Ever since he became a monk, Li Xiao has gone smoothly no matter what he learned, and he has almost never made a mistake, but this time he failed more than a hundred times, which really made him feel a faint sense of frustration in his heart.
His heart was very tired. If it was his grandson, Li Mingqing would have to slap him in the face. This pretense was so deep that he almost vomited old blood.
"Ahem..." Du Mingqing coughed twice, trying to maintain his self-restraint, "Well, you are already very good."
"Hey..." Hearing what he said, Li Xiao felt that he was not very good. He sighed deeply and made up his mind to learn more in the future.
Seeing himself drawing this picture, Li Xiao felt more and more familiar with it.
After taking a few more glances, Li Xiao suddenly remembered that it seemed to be in the book he got from the old Dongying woman when he was in Ning Village.
At that time, because Li Xiao couldn't understand the island language above, he barely knew that one of them was a substitute technique, and he didn't understand the other one at all.
Thinking about it now, the second one seems to be the formation.
And the content of the formation is somewhat imaginable with this spirit gathering formation, but there is one thing, the formation is complete, not a corner.
"Could it be, is that a complete spirit gathering array?" Thinking of this, Li Xiao became emotional and excited.
ps: I saw a classmate in the book review area asking about a dozen or so updates that were agreed last time. I checked the time today, and the time is set at around 12:00 noon on the 26th. In addition, it is not more than a dozen updates, at least 30 chapters will be updated ...
