Chapter 145 Threshold (third update)


    Mo Hua chatted with An Xiaopang for a while, and then Zhang Lan found him and said he was going to say goodbye, and asked Mo Hua if he wanted to leave.


    Mo Hua said goodbye to An Xiaopang, but An Xiaopang was a little reluctant, so Mo Hua asked him to think more about what he wanted to do when he had time.


    In the end, people can only rely on themselves.


    An Xiaopang nodded solemnly.


    Mo Hua and his men left An’s house, but Zhang Lan and Situ Fang did not go back. Instead, they followed Mo Hua and went to the restaurant of Mo Painters. They spent the spirit stones to buy a lot of wine and meat, saying that they would take it back for food.


    Their behavior makes ink painting very puzzled.


    Hua Lingshi invites ink painting to eat spiritual meal, but don’t eat it yourself, and then you have to go to the ink painting’s house and buy meat to eat Hua Lingshi!


    I don’t know what to say about ink painting.


    But they have many spirit stones, let them go.


    Zhang Lan doesn’t like eating spiritual food. Situ Fang was in the mountains before and tasted beef from ink paintings, so she has been thinking about it all the time.


    The two of them bought a few kilograms of demon meat and said goodbye to Mo Hua.


    Mo Hua remembered that there was also spiritual meal in the Lingchen Building in his storage bag.


    There are a lot of chicken, duck, fish and meat.


    Mo Hua handed the spiritual meal to his mother.


    Liu Ruhua divided some for Aunt Meng, Aunt Jiang and other neighbors, and then kept some by herself, and made it again in the evening to taste the ink painting.


    After eating the Mo Hua, he nodded and then felt that the taste was right.


    In the next few days, Mo Hua practiced the painting formation as usual.


    One morning, Mo Hua meditated and practiced, and in a daze, he felt his meridians tremble.


    Ink painting immediately took out more spirit stones and absorbed them carefully to practice.


    I don’t know how long it took, my cultivation level would be broken through.


    Ink painting has a complicated mood.


    If you spend all your time in thinking, you may not be able to make a breakthrough. If you practice without distraction, you will make a breakthrough.


    Sure enough, practicing Taoism is still a natural thing to do over time.


    But finally the sixth level of Qi refining!


    The spirit of ink painting is excited.


    He felt that the strength of his spiritual consciousness had further improved, and the shackles that vaguely restricted his spiritual consciousness growth were unconsciously untied.


    Mo Hua lifted up the quilt, and a row of storage bags beside the bed were filled with jade bottles, and the jade bottle was filled with demon blood!


    Dense, more than a thousand bottles!


    Ink painting needs to borrow more than a thousand bottles of demon blood to comprehend the nine formation patterns and pass the threshold of reaching the first-grade formation master!


    Mo Hua opens the "Thousand Form Catalogue" and finds a formation.


    First-grade Golden Armor Formation!


    This is what you need to learn in ink painting, the first pair of formations containing nine formation patterns.


    I have long remembered the ink paintings of the array pattern, but I didn’t have enough spiritual consciousness before and couldn’t draw them.


    Now Mo Hua has become a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining, and his spiritual consciousness has been greatly enhanced. You can try the formation of painting the nine-patterned pattern.


    Ink painting is calm, spread the paper, adjust the spiritual ink, dip the pen ink, and start to officially draw a first-grade golden armor array.


    The first eight array patterns are easy to draw, and there is no obstacle, but the ninth array pattern is not yet drawn, and the ink painting feels that the spiritual consciousness is not enough.


    “No…”


    Mo Hua was stunned. When his spiritual sense was almost exhausted, he only drew eight and a half array patterns.


    "Why are you so much worse?"


    Mo Hua put down his pen, held his chin, and began to think.


    Logically speaking, if his realm is improved, his spiritual consciousness will also be greatly enhanced. Why can his spiritual consciousness be able to draw half a formation pattern now?


    He originally thought that even if he could not draw the nine formation patterns directly, he could draw a rough idea. He practiced it a few more times when he had time, and it would be almost done.


    Now it seems that it is not that simple.


    Mo Hua frowned, then meditated and used meditation to restore his spiritual consciousness. Afterwards, he tried several times, but the results were not very ideal.


    In the afternoon, he went to Zhuju to find Mr. Zhuang.


    Mr. Zhuang looked at Mo Hua in a complicated manner and asked, "How many array patterns did you draw?"


    "Nine Ways."


    “Sixth floor…”


    Mo Hua doesn’t understand why Mr. Zhuang asked about this.


    Mr. Zhuang sighed in his heart and said, "How can the breakthrough from the fifth to sixth level of Qi refining make up for the gap in spiritual consciousness between the eight and nine formation patterns?"


    “Aren’t they all just one level away?”


    "There is only one level between the nine levels of Qi refining and foundation building."


    Mo Hua smiled embarrassedly.


    Mr. Zhuang said patiently: "In each major realm, the slower the improvement of cultivation and spiritual consciousness, the greater the gap between the realm."


    "So is the gap between the eight formation patterns and the nine formation patterns bigger than before?" Mo Hua asked.


    Mr. Zhuang nodded and said, "Generally speaking, the nine formation patterns are already the limit of a first-grade formation master."


    "The thought of the nine array patterns is completed has extremely high requirements for your brushwork of drawing the array, memory of the array diagram, understanding of the array pivot, and the strength and control of your spiritual consciousness..."


    "The eight formation patterns to nine formation patterns seem to be just a step before the door, but the difference is quite large. Some formation masters have been patrolling here for a lifetime, only one step away from getting the first grade, but this step may not be able to get through in the lifetime."


    Mr. Zhuang was quite moved.


    Mo Hua was a little nervous. He would not have to walk through this threshold for the rest of his life.


    Mr. Zhuang saw through Mo Hua''s thoughts and pointed at his forehead, "How old are you? What are you anxious about? Go back with peace of mind and just draw more and practice more."


    Mr. Zhuang said this and the ink painting became more at ease.


    It’s better to just keep drawing the formation. Sometimes the stupidest way is the best way.


    Mo Hua nodded.


    After Mo Hua said goodbye, the breeze floated in the bamboo room. Old Kuang appeared behind Mr. Zhuang and asked curiously:


    "How long does it take for his threshold?"


    Mr. Zhuang said, "It can be as low as three or four days, and it can be as high as half a month."


    Old Kuang was silent, and finally couldn''t help saying, "You call this the threshold?"


    Ten days and half a month is enough. This is not a threshold, and it is not even a stumbling block...


    Mr. Zhuang said lightly: "After breaking through the realm, he unravels the shackles on his spiritual consciousness, the limit of his spiritual consciousness growth has been relaxed. Now his spiritual consciousness is not enough. After ten days, he practices the formation and his spiritual consciousness is enhanced, and these nine formation patterns will not be difficult."


    Puppet old man was speechless.


    Mr. Zhuang raised his eyebrows, "The nine formation patterns are indeed a threshold for other monks, but the child Mo Hua has practiced too many formations. For him, this threshold is actually nothing."


    Old Kuang said unhappy: "Then you still say so much nonsense just now?"


    Mr. Zhuang''s expression became playful and he smiled slightly:


    "I''ll tease him and let him not be proud."


    After Mo Hua returned home, he carefully followed what Mr. Zhuang said, calmly and practiced the formation with peace of mind.


    After practicing for a while, I felt that my spiritual sense had increased, and I could draw a few more strokes of the array pattern of the golden armor formation.


    Ink painting was refreshed and inspired, so I continued to paint.


    In this way, you have stronger spiritual consciousness every day and draw more array patterns every day.


    Ten days later, the ink painting naturally drew out the golden armor array, which felt like it was ripe and natural.


    But Mo Hua frowned.


    It seems that it is not as difficult as Mr. Zhuang said.


    Isn’t it said that there is a threshold between the eight formation patterns and the nine formation patterns? Where is the threshold?


    Mo Hua recalled it carefully, but still didn''t remember where it could be considered a threshold.


    "What''s going on?"


    Mo Hua was a little confused and his brows frowned even tighter.


    What about the agreed threshold...
