Liu Xiaolou will not force a breakthrough like Longshan the Rogue Cultivator back then. That would be too laborious and not in line with Formation Master's style. The real Formation Master breaking formation must be light and breezy, with no smell of fireworks.
Following the method taught by Liu Daoran, after deducing the result, he stepped on Beidou Xuanshu Gang, mixed with Xiantian Dou steps, and stepped on the key of the formation every step of the way. In less than half a cup of tea, he walked out of the countless layers of ridges and came under the ancient pine trees.
The ancient pines that are tens of thousands of years old have a sense of vitality. The simple desolation that comes to Tiansheng is intimidating, as if an elder who has experienced the hardships of the world is looking at Liu Xiaolou with a scrutinizing gaze.
Liu Xiaolou couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. He looked up for a moment and subconsciously cupped his hands. Then he calmed down and looked for the amber Pine Resin Essence among the tree trunks and pine branches.
Pine Resin Essence is the essence of the sun and the moon condensed from ten thousand years of ancient pine trees. It is the essence of spirituality, overflowing from the trunk like the tears of the tree. All he needed to do was collect the teardrops spilling from the branches.
It took half an hour to finally pick off all the teardrop-like Pine Resin Essence and shape it into a rosin essence ball as big as a dog's head. I felt infinite joy in my heart. After all the hard work of going south to Qianli, it was really worth it!
Just such a large piece of rosin essence ball can be used to refine a lot of Misty Incense Tendon. If you let it go, there will be no problem in using it for three to five years!
After checking again, Liu Xiaolou made sure that he had not missed anything, so he picked everything he could before letting go. If this thousand-year-old pine wants to grow so many Pine Resin Essence again, I'm afraid it will be five or ten years later.
He looked at the pine branches again with satisfaction, and finally resisted and did not break off a few. For him, Pine Resin Essence is the essence of this ten thousand-year-old pine. The pine branches are certainly the best treasures for refining weapons, but breaking the pine branches will trigger the formation to report to Feiyun. The purpose of his trip has been achieved, and there is no need to cause any setbacks.
Back then, Longshan the Rogue Cultivator and the others were just running towards the pine branches. It was natural for them to take risks, but there was no need for him. After all, he was only Qi Refining sixth layer, so it would be much slower to escape.
Therefore, he suppressed the greed in his heart, turned around and left, quietly walked out of the Trapping Array, followed the rope bridge back to the opposite side of the deep stream, shook the rattan rope, loosened the buckle, retracted the rattan rope, dug a hole in a secluded place and buried it, eliminated all clues, and went down the mountain before dawn.
Liu Xiaolou walked briskly, got off Huashou Platform, and soon entered Azure Mist Valley. As usual, he walked and pondered:
With so many Pine Resin Essences, when Impotence Circle Young Masters gather the materials required for the array plate, they can refine the simplified version of Lin Yuan Xuan Shi Formation according to their ideas.
This time Pine Resin Essence was obtained without any effort, not even a single spiritual stone was spent. After completing the production of the formation disk, it was equivalent to a net profit of twenty spiritual stones. After that, a regular income from the repair of the formation disk would be obtained every six months. This business was quite good.
If in addition to Shenwu Mountain, I discover another Impotence Circle and refine a set of formation disks, wouldn't my income double?
It's just that Impotence Circle like this has always been very hidden. Where should I find it?
Do you want to take the time to go to Yuezhou and visit Qingzhu? Doesn't she claim to have a lot of contact with such people?
The road ahead is getting brighter and brighter. As long as you work hard, you can really hope to earn one hundred spiritual stones. When the one-year period is up, you will go back to Shenwu Mountain and formally ask Steward Song whether his promise at that time is counted and whether you can take Susu away!
Coming slowly and leaving quickly, the journey has always been like this. Before we knew it, we were out of Azure Mist Valley, and the mountain walls on the left and right sides also stretched out, getting lower and lower.
We were about to leave Jade Goose Peak, and after a short detour, we could leave Luofu Mountain before dawn. Liu Xiaolou was in a good mood. But within a few breaths, his mood suddenly took a turn for the worse.
On the opposite side of the road stood a man, with his back to him, looking up at the stars.
Liu Xiaolou subconsciously put on the bamboo hat and covered it with a black scarf.
The man turned around, his half-smiling expression froze, and he couldn't help scolding. "Put away the hat and black scarf, who are you showing them to?"
Of course, Liu Xiaolou would not take off his hat and black scarf just because of his words. The Xuanzhen Rope on his wrist was beating faintly, and his right hand was slightly bent, ready to draw the sword at any time. The array plate also slipped halfway from the cuff and landed on the fingertips of his left hand.
First, check where this person came from. If he doesn't come from the right place, be ready to take action.
Xuanzhen Rope stalks the enemy and weakens the enemy's strength. Three Xuan Sword attacks the enemy and flees with one strike. This is the tactic planned by Liu Xiaolou. If he cannot escape, he can only use the formation to deal with it. However, after the array was repaired, Misty Incense Tendon was not added, and the effectiveness was greatly reduced. It became an ordinary phantom array. It is difficult to say whether it will win or lose after taking action.
The opponent seemed to have a lot of experience in fighting. With just one glance, he saw Liu Xiaolou's subtle preparations and said disdainfully, "I've been watching you all day. What kind of way are you, a thief, do you think I don't know? Qi Refining sixth layer is it still the seventh level? In short, it will never exceed the seventh level. With such a level of cultivation, do you still want to fight a trapped beast? I advise you to put out this thought early and don't struggle in vain."
As he spoke, an ancient bronze sword suddenly appeared next to him, suspended in the air, buzzing.
Liu Xiaolou My heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
He didn't see clearly how the opponent drew the sword, whether it was drawing the sword or flying out of the body. If the sword was drawn, the opponent was Qi Refining Perfection. If it was flying out of the body, it was Foundation Establishment. As for the golden elixir, it was unlikely. The golden elixir faced a minor Qi refining practitioner like himself, and there was no need to draw the sword at all.
Do you want to fight alone with a master who is at least Qi Refining Perfection? Liu Xiaolou didn't think he had this ability, especially when he Bewitching Incense failed, there was no hope at all. Therefore, he immediately corrected his mentality, pulled off the bamboo hat and black scarf, clasped his fists and bowed. "May I ask your name?"
"I am Luofu Sect Inner Gate Patrol Officer Zhao Ruyu. When you came to Huashou Platform, I was watching you. You don't need to say anything else, right?"
"Ah, I mistakenly believed the rumors in the world and thought that Jade Goose Peak is a land without one. Well, I admired Luofu Sect's large style, so I couldn't help but go up the mountain. I hope Steward Zhao will forgive me."
"Ha, who told you that Jade Goose Peak is a borderland?"
"I can't remember this right now, maybe I heard it wrong."
"Then what are you doing in Earth Gate Formation?"
"I like formations. I'm happy to see you. It's purely for studying formations. There is no malicious intention."
"Are you Formation Master? Which company do you belong to?"
"The following is Rogue Cultivator, a little Rogue Cultivator. He taught himself the formation because of his hobby. He doesn't belong to any school or sect."
Zhao Ruyu stared at Liu Xiaolou for a long time, staring at him until Liu Xiaolou felt uncomfortable, and then said, "Where is Ten Thousand Year Pine Branch? Where is he hiding?"
Liu Xiaolou spread his arms, took off the backpack, and poured out the contents. "Steward Zhao, I really didn't take the pine branches, I just went in to take a look at the formation. You see, this gourd is the miasma I collected when I traveled in the mountains. This skin bag is a kind of wild beehive, and they are all materials for refining the formation. If your sect needs it, I can send it to you."
Zhao Ruyu scolded, "I, Luofu Sect, covet this little thing from you?"
Liu Xiaolou quickly put it away. "Ah, yes, yes, my horizons are too low."
Zhao Ruyu suddenly said, "Wait a minute, what do you have in this bag?"
Liu Xiaolou untied the bag and said, "Ah, when I was studying the formation of your sect, I saw some rosin like this under the tree, so I took care of it."
Zhao Ruyu sneered, "Under the tree? Will the rosin fall under the tree?"
Liu Xiaolou excuse. "Under the tree, the trunk"
Zhao Ruyu said, "This is called Pine Resin Essence. It is the material that I, Luofu Sect, use to refine the talisman. Don't say it won't fall to the ground. Even if it falls to the ground, ha, it falls under the tree. You can't pick it up casually!"
Liu Xiaolou kept nodding. "Yes, yes, I will return it now. I really don't know."
Zhao Ruyu sneered, "Pick it up? How can you pick up so many? Are you just here for Pine Resin Essence? Are you going to use it to refine the formation disk?"
Liu Xiaolou admitted. "Ah, this can't escape the eyes of Officer"
Zhao Ruyu tilted his head and looked at Liu Xiaolou: "Are you really Formation Master?"
Liu Xiaolou swears to the sky. "If it is fake, it will be replaced! Steward Zhao can take the exam on the spot."
Zhao Ruyu nodded, waved his hand and said, "Okay, follow me up the mountain, and I will give you a good test."
