Chapter 73 The Fourth Level of Qi Refining


    In the days that followed, ink paintings were still as Mr. Zhuang said, and he practiced the formation using what he learned.


    Master Chen’s weapon refining furnace and Mr. Feng’s alchemy furnace were both tossed by ink painting.


    Near the neighborhood, there is nothing that can make the ink painting "show its skills".


    Ink painting can only be second-rate, and find some low-end formations to practice, such as the double lock formation on the door, the earth and stone formation on the wall, the open fire formation on the lamp, etc.


    The formation in the Taoist world is widely used, from spiritual weapons for killing and fighting to shield armor for defense, as well as all the food, clothing, housing and transportation in daily life, they are all drawn with formations.


    But among the scattered cultivators at the bottom, the formation is used very roughly and briefly, and some are even just a simple array pattern or two, which cannot be regarded as formations.


    In comparison, Master Chen’s refining furnace and Mr. Feng’s alchemy furnace are already considered “high-end goods”.


    Especially Mr. Feng''s alchemy furnace, he even used a three-format compound complex to achieve the harmony of the spiritual power of wood and fire. There shouldn’t be many formation masters in the entire Tongxian City who can draw such a formation.


    Mo Hua helped several neighbors to repair doors, walls, and lamps. They were basically miscellaneous tasks that could not reflect any formation attainments, but the monks in the neighborhood were very grateful to Mo Hua.


    They don’t have enough spirit stones, so they all use some of their own fruits and vegetables to thank the ink paintings. Although the gift is light, the intention is heavy.


    The ink painters are not rich, and there are many casual cultivators who are poorer than those ink painters. Ordinary casual cultivators save as much as possible. They continue to use things when they are broken. When the formation is worn out, they will never ask the formation master to repair it.


    Sometimes the spirit stones spent on asking the formation master to repair the formation may be more expensive than buying one again.


    There are few formation masters. After most formation masters have achieved success in their skills, they will only serve families, sects or some major immortal cultivators. This is not only to earn more spirit stones, but also to be able to go further in the formation.


    "Learn from literature and martial arts, and be good at the imperial family." This is a sentence in the memory of the Ink Painting another life.


    After stepping into the threshold of superior families and sects, we will naturally no longer look at those poor families.


    This is both a human nature and a cold heart.


    Thinking of this, Mr. Feng, who can still practice alchemy for the poor and carefree scattered scattered people, is even more respectable.


    It took about a month for Mo Hua to repair the formation for others.


    Most of the people who practice are low-end formations, which only contain two or three formation patterns, but they can be considered to have been reviewed again, and the memory is much deeper than before.


    Previously, when drawing formations on paper, paper was the array medium, but when actually using formations, every brick, stone and wood can be used as array medium.


    Although the formation drawn on paper can also operate, it has some meaning of talking about war on paper. Moreover, the formation on paper will generally be invalid once and cannot be used for a long time.


    Only by truly drawing the formation to all things in the world, earth, wood, bricks, stones, and various spiritual weapons, and allowing them to operate for a long time can they truly understand the way of heaven and follow the way of heaven.


    Drawing formations on different array media consumes more spiritual consciousness and spiritual power, has higher requirements for brushwork, and is more difficult to draw.


    But as long as you practice diligently, your understanding of formation will be more thorough.


    After practicing ink painting for a while, when you go to see the formation again, you will feel enlightened.


    It seems that the array patterns are no longer obscure and abstract patterns, but more vivid patterns, and are the trajectory of the spiritual power of heaven and earth.


    When the ink painting sank the spiritual consciousness into the sea of ??consciousness and then looks at the mysterious array woven by spiritual power in the sea of ??consciousness, there is no longer the feeling of being confused before.


    The spiritual power flowed on the mystery array, and every thread became much clearer.


    On this day, Mo Hua broke the formation according to Professor Zhuang''s rules of spiritual power.


    As the white little hands outlined, one array pattern after another condensed, and then one array pattern after another dissipated, like the silk being pulled open, slowly stretched out, and then dissipated and melted into the sea of ??consciousness. The ink painting faintly realized that every time a pattern was untied, the connection between spiritual consciousness and spiritual power became closer.


    When the ink painting unraveled the last array pattern, it was discovered that the entire mysterious array in the sea of ??consciousness had dissipated, and the sea of ??consciousness had returned to its original state. It seemed that nothing had happened. Only the Taoist monument in the middle of the sea of ??consciousness, although it was abrupt, still existed as before.


    "Is this a solution?"


    Mo Hua scratched his head, then tried to mobilize his spiritual power, and found that the sea of ??consciousness suddenly trembled, like his stomach that had not been dripping water for several days, suddenly became hungry.


    Mo Hua was shocked and quickly took out the spirit stone and absorbed the spiritual energy from the spirit stone. After refining more than ten spirit stones, the sea of ??consciousness gradually calmed down.


    When I looked inside, I found that my spiritual power was much more abundant and my spiritual sense was stronger.


    “The fourth level of Qi refining!”


    Mo Hua was very happy and couldn''t sleep when she lay on the bed.


    Get up and light the lamp, spread paper and ink, and draw a three-talent formation.


    The three talent formation contains six paths and first-grade formation patterns.


    Ink painting was previously limited by spiritual consciousness, and although it could be drawn, it was still a bit difficult. Now that the cultivation level has been broken and the spiritual consciousness has increased, the three talent formations can be easily drawn.


    After finishing the painting, I remembered that after midnight, I could draw a formation on the Taoist stele of the sea of ??consciousness, and wasted a piece of paper and ink.


    No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.


    Mo Hua felt a little heartbroken, and then he sank his spiritual consciousness into the sea of ??consciousness again, drawing the formation on the Taoist monument without any scruples.


    The formations that I felt had difficulty in the past became much easier due to breakthrough in cultivation and increased spiritual consciousness. No wonder others often say that realm is the foundation of monks.


    Mo Hua kept painting the formation until dawn, and then couldn''t wait to tell his parents the good news.


    Moshan had just finished climbing the mountain and hunted a few bison monsters with his companions and repaired them at home for a few days. The couple was relieved after hearing this, so they arranged a banquet for nearby neighbors and friends they knew each other.


    The third level of Qi refining to the fourth level of Qi refining is from the early stage of Qi refining to the middle stage, which is considered to have broken through a middle level, and as usual, it is necessary to have a banquet. Dahu and the other three also invited them when they broke through the fourth level of Qi Refining, but the Meng family was not in good condition, so the three children got together and only had a banquet once.


    The restaurant had a day off. Moshan asked someone to carry the whole bison demon he had hunted a few days ago to his home, peeled the skin and stewed Liu Ruhua with spices, and then opened the table in the restaurant.


    Master Chen, Dazhu, and several other disciples of Master Chen were all here, not to mention Dahu and the three of them were not very familiar with each other. However, the casual cultivator who had received help from Mo Hua before gave some small gifts, but did not leave them for dinner. Liu Ruhua then wrapped some beef as a return gift.


    Although it was a banquet, the food was better than usual. There was no spiritual meat because it was too expensive. However, it was enough for bison meat. In addition, Liu Ruhua''s craftsmanship was well-known, so although the food was cheap, it was delicious. Everyone was very happy to eat meat and drink wine.


    Mr. Zhuang doesn’t like the hustle and bustle, and the Bai family has a special status, so I didn’t invite Mo Hua. I just made some more delicious food and sent it to Mr. Zhuang and the others the next day.


    Bai Zixi thanked him, ate the crispy snacks and drank the sweet wine, and looked quite satisfied.


    Bai Zisheng was very regretful. He also wanted to join in the fun and wanted to follow others to drink and eat meat with big mouthfuls. But I also know that I can only think about it. Although Aunt Xue has a gentle temper, she is absolutely impossible to agree to them.


    Mo Hua originally had a little sympathy for him, but Bai Zisheng asked in confusion:


    "But it''s just the fourth level of Qi Refining. Is it worth celebrating like this?"


    The little sympathy in Mo Hua''s heart disappeared instantly.


    For ordinary casual cultivators, the Qi Refining Period may be the end of the Taoist practice, so it is not easy to take a step forward.
