Ning Xiaochuan spent a full half year before comprehending the essential principles of formations from certain passages of the "Mystic Gate Evasion Technique."
At the same time, through his own arrangements and practice, he had reached the introductory level of formation study.
After spending another three months, he successfully set up his first formation.
"Essence Gathering Formation!"
Ning Xiaochuan took out eight Low-Grade Profound Stones and placed them within the eight spiritual nodes in midair. Operating them according to the methods recorded in the "Mystic Gate Evasion Technique," he activated the formation.
The profound qi of heaven and earth in the surroundings gathered toward the formation.
"Boom!"
When the profound qi reached a certain density, the formation began operating.
The profound qi slowly began transforming into vital qi!
Vital qi was of a higher grade than profound qi. Only Martial Venerables could cultivate it within their bodies. The power released by a single strand of vital qi could easily shatter a profound qi barrier.
Now, through the formation he had set up, Ning Xiaochuan was also able to transform profound qi into vital qi. This was a realm that left many masters of the Daoist schools eating dust.
This did not mean that Ning Xiaochuan's attainments in formations were extraordinarily high. It was merely because the "Mystic Gate Evasion Technique" was sufficiently profound and mysterious. Even a minor formation comprehended from it would be an incomparably exquisite advanced formation if taken outside.
With the formation successfully arranged, Ning Xiaochuan was naturally quite excited. "Now I'll inscribe the Essence Gathering Formation into a pill."
Ning Xiaochuan intended to refine a type of pill for practice. But what pill should he refine?
He had it!
Jade Beauty Pill.
He had long since gathered all the materials needed to refine Jade Beauty Pills.
