Formation mastery? Tongtian Sect Master: It's possible to achieve sainthood through the physical body. Li Er: I've made it!
Deep within the Chaos.
With the departure of the Three Pure Ones, the battle between the Witch Race and the Demon Race also ceased, as there were no so-called opportunities to be found here.
Nüwa observed intently for a while, but finding no hope, she returned to her Nüwa Palace. However, she secretly noted the rhythmic fluctuations of this place.
More than anyone, she desired transcendence, and if transcendence itself was unattainable, then escaping the control of the Heavenly Dao was her greatest wish.
That damned Heavenly Dao was using her as a tool!
The two Saints of the West returned once more, only to find that everything was already over, as they had just been ambushed at their home base by Old Ancestor Styx.
"Senior Brother, I will go to the East to take a look. You must guard our Western Spiritual Mountain well," Zhunti said earnestly, a flash of killing intent in his eyes.
That damned Old Ancestor Styx.
"Junior Brother, be discreet in all matters. If it doesn't work out, just come back.
Anyway, we have accumulated so much merit; it will take a while to pay it all off," Jieyin said patiently, his face growing even more bitter at the last sentence.
"Understood, Senior Brother. Farewell."
Primordial World – Mount Buzhou.
Li Er looked at the fishing rod in his hand and silently put it away. He was done fishing.
He was never fishing again, no—not for the next ten years!
Looking at Pan Laosan, who had his eyes closed, no bait on his hook, and no immortal techniques, the fish were still biting like crazy.
And he just casually pulled them up.
Then look at himself; he had become a bait-spreading immortal, and hadn't even caught a single scale.
He was done fishing!
Sect Master Tongtian was a little puzzled as to why Li Er had stopped fishing, but he didn't think much of it and continued to close his eyes, digesting the gains he had just acquired.
At this moment, he regretted spending so long in the Chaos. It would have been better to stay with Li Er than to be in the Chaos.
A casual cultivation method from him had actually improved his cultivation so much.
Li Er returned to his residence and continued to cultivate. This time, he focused on formations and divine patterns, hoping to create formations with a single thought.
After all, he could now cast the Five Elements spells with a single thought, the spells arriving instantly.
"Fortunately, the Primordial Spirit can continue to grow, drawing in the spiritual energy from outside, so my strength won't be locked at the Golden Core Stage.
But with such a large Golden Core, wouldn't I be doomed in a place with little spiritual energy?
So, these formations can save my life at critical moments," Li Er analyzed earnestly and began to study formations.
Time in the Primordial World was the least valuable. The Time Elder came for a stroll and took away a hundred years.
Li Er slowly opened his eyes, and a complex formation appeared in his palm with a flick of his fingers. It was a bewilderment formation.
If applied to the body, it could simulate the aura of a higher-level cultivator.
It was pretty good for scaring people, but it would reveal its true nature as soon as he made a move.
This was one of his achievements after studying formations for 100 years.
Li Er looked at the distance measuring device and said with great emotion, "I didn't expect another 100 years to pass. I wonder how much lifespan my Golden Core has left. Unknowingly, I have lived in this world for two hundred and thirty years.
Was it worth it?"
"Eh, Li Er, your cultivation has broken through to the Mysterious Immortal realm?" Sect Master Tongtian walked in at this time and asked in confusion. Was his progress that fast?
"No, it's just a small formation," Li Er removed the formation from his body and said helplessly.
However, he was still very happy inside. At least he could catch Pan Laosan's eye, and he could bluff a lot of people when he walked in the Primordial World in the future.
"Hmm? Formation? So powerful? How did you do it?" Sect Master Tongtian asked curiously, feeling a myriad of emotions in his heart.
Even he, a dignified Saint, was fooled and couldn't tell it was a formation. What level of formation was so powerful?
Li Er excitedly told Sect Master Tongtian upon hearing this, "It's actually just a small trick. It's constantly stacking on the original formation, so that they are connected to each other.
For example, this formation, I first stacked it thousands of times, and then it produced a qualitative change.
I then use this qualitative change formation to stack again, so that they form a small turning point in this formation, and so on.
Stacking until it can't be stacked, of course, you have to understand the constructed fluctuations between the formations, that is, their mutual generation and restraint.
If you think this book is not bad, in order to avoid not finding it next time, please remember to add it to the bookshelf.
In the future, if this formation is destroyed by others, it can still restore itself and form a new one, but the power is reduced a little.
Over time, it can restore itself."
Sect Master Tongtian: ? ? ? ?
Wait, formations can be played like this?
Also, don't you need a formation base to set up a formation? And what is this constant stacking?
"Here, Pan Laosan, take these formation disks. I have set up some formations on them. Just throw them out.
These can explode, these can trap enemies, these can confuse enemies, these are..."
"It's a pity my understanding of the Space Laws isn't quite there yet, otherwise I could have created those array disks that break through space. That way, it would be much more convenient for you to escape when the time comes.
In the future, when you go out to 'collect resources,' you'll have one more trick up your sleeve." Li Er took out the array disks he had engraved from the Purple-Gold Gourd and handed them to Sect Master Tongtian.
Sect Master Tongtian: ???
Why does this pile of array disks give him a sense of danger? What's going on?
"It's a shame the materials for these array disks are too poor, otherwise I could have stacked my formations even more.
Don't look at me like that, I don't need these things, I don't go out anyway.
Besides, I can stack formations in the void myself, I don't need array disks." Li Er couldn't help but explain, seeing Pan Laosan's expression.
Pan Laosan is genuinely good to him, always reserving a share for him from whatever he plunders.
Even though these things aren't much, it's the thought that counts.
Now that his formation skills are coming along, he definitely needs to make some things to protect the other party, otherwise this guy, addicted to robbing, will inevitably crash one day.
"How many layers have you stacked on these array disks?" Sect Master Tongtian couldn't help but ask, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
Although he considers himself proficient in formations, as a Sage who understands one law, he understands all laws. He still understands that Li Er's approach can indeed increase the power of the formation by more than just a little bit.
But the problem is, who would have thought that formations could be stacked? The difficulty of this stacking is not a small matter.
Even the slightest fluctuation in the formation can cause a collapse. If one doesn't have a strong enough understanding and the power of the Primordial Spirit, it's simply impossible to do.
The difficulty involved is simply unimaginable.
"Not much, just a tiny bit, that's all. Hey, don't worry about such details. Tell me when you've used them up, and I'll make another batch for you.
It's very simple, it's just that the materials need to be a little better. Next time, help me find a batch of materials, and I'll make more for you.
Alas, it's a pity I'm still at the Golden Core Stage. I wonder what's going on with my body?" Li Er said with a bit of disappointment.
It's not like he hasn't thought about arranging formations on his Golden Core, but the result was that the formation was directly digested by the Golden Core.
The result he got was the same as his usual cultivation. The Golden Core only lit up a tiny bit, even worse than when he cultivates seriously.
Sect Master Tongtian was silent again.
Based on his understanding of Li Er, what he calls a "tiny bit" should be a massive amount.
He knew it! How else could he feel a certain sense of danger from this pile of array disks? If this thing accidentally explodes, it would be quite embarrassing if caught off guard.
"Li Er, don't be discouraged. There are many ways to increase cultivation.
For example, achieving Sainthood through the physical body, achieving Sainthood through merit, or even achieving Sainthood through your Primordial Spirit." Sect Master Tongtian hurriedly comforted him. He also has quite a headache regarding Li Er's constitution that is immune to all laws.
His cultivation is as slow as a snail. Knowing that in the Primordial World, one can become stronger with every breath, his cultivation is as if he hasn't cultivated at all.
However, his Primordial Spirit can continuously cultivate and become stronger. If there's really no other way in the future, he can let his Primordial Spirit out and cultivate alone to achieve the Dao.
He also knows that Li Er is worried about the issue of lifespan. After all, the lifespan of the Golden Core Stage doesn't seem to be very long, but Li Er's Golden Core is indeed strange enough.
He has entered it with his divine sense and seen that it is indeed pitifully small, but the energy it contains is something he can't quite understand.
He tried to pour a large amount of spiritual energy into it, but it was of no use at all. Only the energy that Li Er cultivates himself can make the Golden Core grow.
Otherwise, he wouldn't mind tearing apart the nine heavens and taking the top-level spiritual energy from above to cultivate Li Er.
"Achieving Sainthood through the physical body? How did I not think of that?
The Nine-Nine Mystic Art seems pretty good. Its concept is also to temper the physical body through methods similar to formations. Now that my formation skills are coming along...
Haha...!! Dao Ancestor, I've got it!!"
