Chapter 9 Open Fire Array
The body of the ink painting in the sea of ??consciousness looks like the external body, and can be moved by the heart, but it is not flesh and blood, or even spiritual power, but just a phantom of the spiritual consciousness.
The phantom of the ink painting held his breath and focused his mind, used his fingers to make a pen, and painted the array patterns of the open fire array on the Taoist stele.
The light blue lines flexibly wandered with the fingers of the ink painting, gradually appearing on the mysterious black Taoist monument, and strands gradually connect from simple to complex to mysterious patterns.
After drawing the second formation pattern, when I continued to draw, the ink painting gradually felt unprecedented fatigue and even pain.
The sea of ??consciousness is like a **** that has been chiseled open, and the spiritual consciousness in the sea of ??consciousness keeps flowing out like a tide.
The more spiritual consciousness flows out, the closer the sea of ??consciousness becomes to dryness, as if the riverbed of the river water gradually becomes dry and cracked, causing a tingling feeling due to the pressure of Weiming, and the scalp is faintly numb.
Ink paintings gradually felt that their thoughts were stagnant, and the third formation pattern was drawn slowly and slowly.
Suddenly, a needle-like pain came from the sea of ??consciousness. The ink painting was temporarily lost and could not help but lose its sense. The formation pattern on the monument was also wrong.
Mo Hua had to stop, cover her head, and wait for the pain to slowly relieve.
It took a full cup of tea to recover. After thinking for a moment, I realized:
"The monks need a huge amount of spiritual consciousness to draw formations, which consumes much more spiritual consciousness than other types of spiritual cultivation! It also consumes much more than what they think!"
"Therefore, the illustration is to be deliberately marked with a red pen. Those who are not in a good state are careful to learn. If the state is not in a good state and their spiritual consciousness is not strong, forcibly imitating the formation will consume the spiritual consciousness excessively, and even lead to the exhaustion of the spiritual consciousness..."
The exhaustion of spiritual consciousness will bring strong pain to the monks, and may even damage the sea of ??consciousness and crack. Once the crack is too much, the sea of ??consciousness will be directly broken, and the monks will die and disappear.
This is what the teacher said in the Formation Class. I didn’t care much about the Ink Painting when I listened to the class. When I think about it, I felt a little cold in my heart.
"The open fire array requires three levels of Qi refining, but I only have two levels of Qi refining, so my spiritual consciousness is indeed a little short..."
Mo Hua held his head with his hands, lay on the ground of the sea of ??consciousness, slowly thinking:
"Although it''s a little worse, it probably won''t be much different. My spiritual sense is already a little stronger than others. I have learned the formation for so long. I may not be able to draw it after practicing it a few more times."
"If you can''t draw it once, just draw it the second time, the third time... Every time you increase your spiritual consciousness, and every time you draw one more stroke than before, you will be able to draw the formation sooner or later..."
After thinking about it, Mo Hua stood up and wiped off the unfinished array patterns on the Taoist stele, and then his spiritual consciousness became full again.
It seems that I have never painted a formation, but every stroke I have just turned into Mo Hua’s mind.
Ink painting couldn''t help but sigh in my heart.
Fortunately, there is this Taoist monument, otherwise the spiritual consciousness will be almost exhausted, and I don’t know how long it will take to rest before I can draw it a second time. When you learn the open fire array, it is estimated that ten days and half a month have passed, and more than ten days, the mortgaged spirit stones will be deducted.
When I thought of this, Mo Hua felt ache in her heart and her spiritual consciousness became more concentrated. She began to draw the second time the open fire array...
The passage of time cannot be felt in the empty sea of ??consciousness.
Print ink for a while, pause for a while, and rest for a while, if you really can’t continue, just wipe it off and start from the beginning.
I don’t know how many times I drew it, but finally drew the complete open fire array formation.
Mo Hua breathed a long sigh of relief, and his limbs collapsed on the ground, feeling like a small salted fish with spiritual sense being squeezed out.
After resting for another half cup of tea, Mo Hua had the intention to stand up and appreciate his first-ever formation - the open fire formation.
On the pitch-black Taoist monument, there is a complete light blue patterned formation. The pattern of the formation is rigorous and beautiful, with an unknown sense of mystery. When the formation pattern is bright and dark, it seems to contain unspeakable rules and power.
This is the formation!
In the ink painting was in a daze, as if there was nothing more beautiful than this pattern containing rules in the world. Even if you just look at it, it made people unable to help but immerse themselves in it...
As I looked at the ink painting, I suddenly realized that something was wrong.
When painting, the pattern is light blue, but now it seems to be gradually becoming lighter, and the color is dim, gradually appearing light gray. It was as if... the Taoist stele was telling the ink painting that he had painted the wrong one...
Mo Hua was stunned.
"Draw the wrong one?"
“No…”
Ink painting was a little discouraged, but I still cheered up and carefully checked it one by one. Finally, I found that I had indeed drawn the wrong one, and I had drawn more than one wrong one.
Some have drawn a stroke of the array pattern, some have the wrong angle of connection, and some have the wrong fusion of the two fire patterns...
Because I was drawing the wrong way, my spiritual sense was not consumed so much, so I could finish drawing the open fire array.
Mo Hua scratched her head, so she had to pay attention to note the mistakes, then erase the formation again, and draw it again.
…
After drawing this repeatedly, the ink painting couldn''t help but feel dizzy. In addition to the pain in the sea of ??consciousness, he was a little numb. Looking at the formation patterns on the Taoist monument, he was also dazed and full of heavy shadows.
I don’t know when the ink painting was confused and finished the last stroke.
The Taoist stele seemed to tremble slightly, and the light blue array patterns on the stele emitted a warm white light, and there seemed to be a faint shaking of the white light, like the lights illuminated on the candle in the dark night.
Open fire array!
Ink paintings can’t hide their excitement, and the fatigue of the night was wiped out.
In his life, Mo Hua personally felt the ability of a monk for the first time, the feeling of comprehension, then creating it himself, using formations to reflect the rules of the way of heaven and master the power of heaven and earth.
Although it is just a small step and a little bit of power, it is the first drop of water that forms a great river!
Ink painting is very proud. Although the open fire array can only be used for lighting and is one of the most common and cheapest formations in Taoism, at least this formation illuminates the first step in the Taoism practice.
He wished he could draw the ink painting that was still unsatisfied several times, but he also knew that his weak spiritual consciousness was like a candle in the wind and could not withstand the tossing.
If you continue to draw, the sea of ??consciousness may not be exhausted, he will definitely go crazy.
After all, although the spiritual consciousness will be restored, the spiritual consciousness is gradually being lost during the process of drawing the formation, and this process is not so comfortable.
This is the first time that Mo Hua has drawn a formal formation, but it is definitely not the last time.
He plans to practice the open fire array several times every night. After a few days, he will use the materials of the array pavilion to draw the array. After drawing it, he will find a manager to change the spirit stones. It is best to get several sect sect sects so that his parents don’t have to work so hard.
“Let’s just stop here tonight…”
The open fire formation on the Taoist stele shines brightly, and the ink painting admires it again, and nods involuntarily, then brushes his hand a little reluctantly to wipe the formation away.
The moment it erased, the spiritual consciousness was like a tide rising and falling. The moon was like a sea water breaking the dam and then tracing back again. After sunset, the exhausted spiritual consciousness instantly retraces, filling the sea of ??consciousness of the ink painting!
The ink painting stood in front of the Taoist stele, full of spiritual consciousness. At this moment, just like the moment when he had just entered the sea of ??consciousness a few hours ago.
This feeling of spiritual consciousness from full to loss, and from loss to full, no matter how many times I experience it, I still feel it is extremely mysterious.
And this time my experience is deeper than any previous one.
Ink painting looked at the Taoist stele, the surface of which was pitch black and deep, and seemed to be nothing, but it seemed to contain everything, and it seemed to have nothing, but it seemed to be able to show everything.
Transforming the divine consciousness into a formation, and reverse the formation into a divine consciousness, and existence or non-existence is born and transformed.
A sentence from ancient books emerged in Mo Hua''s mind:
It is profitable if it is not useful if it is useless if it is useless if it is useless if it is not!
