Cola Novels, catching up on updates has never been so fun.
This afternoon, after Li Yuan finished teaching Han Qing, he went out to Rogue Cultivator Gathering Area to replenish a batch of Cinnabar.
There were more people in the stall area than in the past few days. The news of the Yuanyang Sect recruiting disciples continued to ferment. Rogue Cultivator came from all over the place and crowded the stall area. Even the open space outside the stone fence was covered with coarse cloth stalls.
Li Yuan walked slowly along the stall area and stopped in front of a stall selling Cinnabar and Mineral Powder. He picked two Cinnabar that were in good condition and paid Spirit Stone.
As I continued walking forward, I passed a stall that I had not noticed before.
The stall owner is an old monk in his sixties, with a skinny face, white temples, and a cultivation level of Qi Refining Sixth Layer. There are only three things on the coarse cloth in front of him: two bottles of Medicinal Pill without labels, and a roll of Beast Skin Booklet carefully wrapped in oil paper.
There are a few words written on the oil paper cover of Beast Skin Booklet: Fiend Gathering Array.
Li Yuan's pace slowed down.
Fiend Gathering Array. Gather Array of Fiend Qi.
He knelt down, picked up the volume Beast Skin Booklet and turned over two pages.
The content is not too complicated.
Fiend Gathering Array is a functional Array of Low-grade First-Order. After being deployed, it can continuously gather Fiend Qi in the surrounding environment and concentrate them at the Array Eye position. The coverage area is very large, and Fiend Qi within a hundred feet will be slowly pulled over.
For most monks, Fiend Qi is something that needs to be avoided. Fiend Gathering Array gathering Fiend Qi in one place is equivalent to creating a dangerous area with extremely high concentration of Fiend Qi.
Not many people will buy this Array.
But Li Yuan is different.
Fiend Qi Affinity allows Fiend Qi to have almost no negative impact on him. Fiend Qi Body Tempering converts Fiend Qi into nutrients for tempering the physical body. Iron Wall Body Refining Art's cultivation requires a large amount of Fiend Qi.
Previously, I went to Ghost Mist Forest to collect Fiend Qi. It took me half a day to go back and forth, and the amount of Fiend Qi I could bring back each time was limited.
If Fiend Gathering Array can be deployed in a place with sufficient Fiend Qi, and all the surrounding Fiend Qi can be gathered together, it is equivalent to creating a training ground there that can continuously supply Fiend Qi.
No need to run back and forth, just practice directly in Array.
"How do you sell this?" Li Yuan raised the brochure in his hand towards the stall owner.
The old monk raised his cloudy eyes and took a look.
"Fiend Gathering Array, twenty-five Spirit Stone, no bargaining."
"Okay."
Spirit Stone put it down and put the booklet into the storage bag.
Li Yuan stood up and continued walking around the stall area.
The layout of Fiend Gathering Array requires materials. There is a list in the booklet: eight pieces of Array Base Stone, several pieces of Conductive Spirit Sand, and one piece of Fiend Absorbing Stone for Array Eye.
Array Base Stone is the most common cloth Formation Materials material. Rogue Cultivator Gathering Area is sold at the ore stalls, one piece of Spirit Stone is available. Conductive Spirit Sand is not expensive, three pieces of Spirit Stone are available in a bag.
Fiend Absorbing Stone is a little more troublesome. This thing itself has Fiend Qi, which is not common in ordinary ore stalls.
Li Yuan walked around the stall area, and finally found one Spirit Stone at a stall specializing in Yin-type materials, which cost fifteen yuan, and I bought three pieces in total.
After returning to the yard, Li Yuan unfolded Fiend Gathering Array and Beast Skin Booklet on the table and read it twice carefully from beginning to end.
The array diagram is not complicated. Eight pieces of Array Base Stone are placed according to specific orientation and spacing, and Conductive Spirit Sand is used to lay connecting lines on the ground to connect the eight nodes in series into a network. Fiend Absorbing Stone is placed at the position of Array Eye as the core of the entire Array.
The key to the layout lies in the direction of the transmission lines and the sequence of Spiritual Qi Infusion. The transmission of spiritual power between the eight nodes must form a stable closed loop, which is somewhat similar to the nine-grain closed structure of Spirit Gathering Array Talisman.
The Permanent Affix of Basics of Array Dao is always hanging, and the Proficiency speed during formation is increased by 50%. Coupled with the spiritual power control accuracy brought by Talisman Crafting Art Major Accomplishment, the technical difficulty of formation is not too high for Li Yuan.
The problem is location.
The coverage area of Fiend Gathering Array is not small. Moreover, after the operation of Array, Fiend Qi will continue to gather, and the concentration of Fiend Qi near Array Eye will become higher and higher.
It is forbidden to set up formations privately in Yunyang Marketplace. To set up formations, you must apply to the Yuanyang Sect.
Not to mention Array like Fiend Gathering Array that can create dangerous areas, even if it is an ordinary Spirit Gathering Formation, it is illegal to install it privately within the city limits.
Li Yuan needs a place outside Fangshi.
Fiend Qi is sufficient, no one has jurisdiction, and it cannot be too far from the city.
Ghost Mist Forest.
The forest that is filled with thick fog and Fiend Qi all year round is the place with the highest concentration of Fiend Qi in the entire area. If Array is deployed there, the effect of collecting evil will be better. Moreover, Ghost Mist Forest does not belong to the jurisdiction of any force, and no one will care about whether you are in the bush formation inside.
It takes more than half a day to travel from Yunyang Marketplace. It is not too close, but it is not unacceptable. After setting up the formation, every time I go to practice in the future, I no longer need to search for a place with a high concentration of Fiend Qi in the forest. I can just sit down near Array Eye.
Li Yuan put away the brochures and materials and was not in a hurry to set off.
First finish the Talisman Making task at hand.
Lay down Talisman Paper and pick up Talisman Brush.
One sheet, two sheets, three sheets.
The quality of each one is excellent.
When I drew the fifth picture, the feeling at the moment I finished painting was different from the first four pictures.
It's not that it's getting better, it's that you don't need to care anymore. Heart-Locking Talisman's Six Paths Spirit Pattern From starting to finishing, the whole process is like an instinctive movement of the body, completed directly without thinking.
[Talisman: Heart-Locking Talisman-Mastery(0/800)]
Li Yuan put Talisman Brush aside and replaced it with Breath-Concealing Talisman.
The Concealment Pattern direction of Breath-Concealing Talisman is different from that of Heart-Locking Talisman, but the accuracy requirements for spiritual power control are the same. After drawing a few pictures, the same feeling appeared.
[Talisman: Breath-Concealing Talisman-Mastery(0/800)]
Two Talisman arrived Mastery at the same time.
The rotation of different types of Talisman has always been the most effective way to push the total Talisman Crafting Art degree to Proficiency. Every time one more type of Talisman reaches Mastery, the total Proficiency degree will be pushed forward a lot.
Li Yuan folded the finished product and put away the pen.
At night, sit cross-legged on the bed and run Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art.
Spiritual Qi pours into the body, Pure Spirit Power removes impurities, and the spiritual power condenses and sinks into the Dantian. Spirit-Gathering Pill's Spirit Essence Condensation increases the cultivation speed by 50%, and Breakthrough Pill's Spiritual Power Advancement adds another 20%.
The Spirit-Blood Dual Cultivation of Blood Coagulation Pill makes Qi and Blood run synchronously with the spiritual power. The Permanent Affix of Eternal Qi-Blood Stability makes the cycle of Qi and Blood as stable as a rock.
One Sunday, two Sundays, three Sundays.
Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art has been slowly advancing since Major Accomplishment. The core of this Cultivation Method is to reconcile the coexistence of spiritual powers of different attributes in the meridians, so that the spiritual powers of Fire Element, water type, Earth Element, Metal Element, and wood type can coexist peacefully in the same meridians without conflicting with each other.
Major Accomplishment stage has achieved no conflict. There is no sense of rejection when the spiritual power of different attributes is switched in the meridians, and the speed and loss of transformation have reached a very low level.
But the absence of conflict does not mean integration.
When spiritual power circulates in the meridians, although different attributes are no longer exclusive, they still go their own way. Fire Element follows the path of Fire Element, and the water system follows the path of the water system, and they do not interfere with each other.
The process of pushing from Major Accomplishment to Perfection is from conflict to coexistence.
Rather than merging into one, it allows spiritual powers of different attributes to exist in the same meridians at the same time, like cold water and hot water in the same river, not mixing but flowing together.
After the fourth week of operation, Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes. Perfection.
[Cultivation Method: Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art-Perfection(3200/3200)]
Li Yuan opened his eyes and moved around for a week to feel it.
After Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art Perfection, the most intuitive change is the speed of spiritual power attribute conversion. In the past, switching from Fire Element to water type required a very short transition process, but now this transition has almost disappeared. Spiritual power can switch attributes instantly in the meridians without any transition time.
The benefit to Talisman Making is huge. When drawing Talisman with different attributes, the spiritual power attribute was frequently switched. After Perfection, the loss of switching dropped to zero, and the efficiency was much higher.
It is also good for combat. When Law Technique with different attributes is used continuously, there is no need to wait for the conversion of spiritual power to be completed, and the connection can be seamless.
