Chapter 515: Cat and Horse


    First of all, the design of the mine.


    This large mine not only needs to open mountains and connect mountains, but also build a formation system with rigorous structure and complete functions.


    What mountains should be opened and how to connect.


    What formations should be built and how to layout them.


    These are all things to be considered.


    Ink painting first refers to the mine maps of all dynasties and studied the structure of several mines, large and small, outside Nanyue City.


    Later, I solicited the opinions of several aristocratic families and sect elders.


    There is also a mining industry among these elders’ tribes, or sects.


    They have operated related road cultivation businesses, guarded the mines, or participated in the construction of mines.


    Mo Hua asked them, but they didn''t hide their own private matters either.


    It is to seek some welfare for these poor mining cultivation, but also to thank Mohua for suppressing the corpse king and quelling the corpse troubles.


    After Mo Hua became familiar with the mine structure, it took several days to draw up a large formation sketch.


    In the mine, you cannot use a large array, and you cannot use a large array.


    The formation is grand and unified.


    The formations in the mine are trivial.


    It is necessary to meet all kinds of functions, and it must be as simple as possible, familiar and durable as possible. Even if it is damaged, it must be easy to repair.


    If a large formation is formed, once it is broken, almost no one will repair it after the ink painting is gone.


    Therefore, the formations in the mine are just a bunch of complex arrays, including some simple single arrays.


    Simple, basic, and practical.


    But the project volume is not small.


    At the same time, the ink painting also combines the underlying structure of the Five Elements Demon Destroy Formation, and uses the five elements to generate and suppress the formation to sort out and optimize these complex formations.


    Make these formations clearer and more concise, and at the same time, some redundant formations are removed, reducing some costs.


    Although there are many formations used in the mine, it is not very difficult.


    The ink painting didn''t even have to be taken to Mr. Zhuang for a look, but it was just for Bai Zixi to see. The two of them got together, checked the array patterns, sorted out the array pivot, checked for omissions and made up for the gaps, and even improved it.


    Later, he took it to the Daoting side''s formation master, discussed it, and then finalized it.


    There are many formations. Although the ink painting is very fast, there is only one person after all. If you can’t draw it, you need the help of the formation masters like Daoting.


    They all agreed.


    After Mo Hua left, an old formation master sighed: "This formation is well constructed..."


    A young formation master said in confusion: "They are all using ordinary formations, just the same one, right?"


    The old formation master glared at him, "What do you know? It is the most difficult to use ordinary formations well."


    He pointed to the array diagram on the table, "These formations seem simple, but their layouts are concise and complement each other. If one adds one, it is too much, and if one reduces one, it is too little. To achieve this, the foundation must be deep enough and the foundation must be solid enough..."


    The old master blows the ink painting.


    The young formation master nodded, but his expression still disagreed.


    Simple formations, after all, are just simple formations, even if they are used, they are nothing more than that.


    The old formation master couldn''t help but shake his head.


    Young Master Yun looked at the formation in front of him, but was a little silent and frowned and thoughtful.


    He is a second-grade formation master and has a deep understanding of his family, so he can see more deeply.


    The pattern of these formations looks simple, but also majestic, as if they are derived from...a formation?


    The formations are gathered into a variety of complexity and are integrated into a variety of complexity, and these formations are simplified by deleting complexity.


    The concept is indeed exquisite, but...


    Young Master Yun couldn''t figure it out.


    Why, we use basic and simple formations.


    Instead of using some more powerful formations, first-grade or even first-grade or above.


    Master Yun was puzzled. A few days later, when Mo Hua began to draw the formation, Master Yun was a little shy and embarrassed, walking to Mo Hua.


    Mo Hua was carefully painting the formation. When he saw Young Master Yun, he said curiously:


    "Mr. Yun, is there anything wrong?"


    In Nanyue City, among the various forces in the Dao Court, there is the only second-grade formation master, and he is so young, so I naturally know Mo Hua.


    But before, the tide of corpses was a disaster, time was urgent, and I hadn''t talked much, so I was not familiar with it.


    Young Master Yun was looked at by Mo Hua''s innocent and watery eyes. For some reason, he was a little helpless, but in the end he was calm and asked for the doubts in his heart:


    "There are better choices for these formations, why choose the most basic one?"


    Mo Hua said: "Because these formations need to be used."


    "Use?" Young Master Yun was slightly stunned.


    Mo Hua nodded, "Master taught me that you should apply what you have learned to form..."


    "The formations in this world are drawn on paper, and they look the same, but when they are actually used, the situation varies greatly."


    Young Master Yun thought about something.


    Mo Hua sighed slightly and then said:


    "This is the mine, and the formation inside is for mine repair."


    “Mine repairs are very poor.”


    "While using a higher-end formation is better, once it is broken, no one will repair it for them."


    "Even if they can practice, they can''t afford it."


    "So, a simple, durable, sturdy and easy to cultivate is a good formation for them."


    Young Master Yun was stunned.


    No one has ever said this to him.


    All formation masters are learning more advanced formations and more difficult formations to improve their formation level and seek a greater future for cultivation.


    But almost no one expected to popularize these most basic formations for the most ordinary monks...


    He himself never realized it.


    Young Master Yun suddenly turned slightly red and felt a little ashamed.


    Mo Hua also looked at him in surprise.


    He thought that Young Master Yun was so young and a second-grade formation master would have to be arrogant, but he didn''t expect that he was so shy and had a tender face than himself.


    I guess I have been staying in the family for a long time and have never been out of the house. I am not very familiar with the world.


    Young Master Yun seemed to remember something again, and he was a little reluctant to speak.


    But almost all his thoughts were written on his face.


    I could see the ink painting clearly, so I asked:


    "What else do you want to ask?"


    Young Master Yun hesitated for a moment before saying with apologies:


    "Maybe, it''s a bit abrupt..."


    "Yes." Mo Hua said, "You ask."


    Young Master Yun made up his mind and asked slowly:


    "Did you draw the formation on the body of the corpse king? Is that... the ultimate formation?"


    Mo Hua nodded and said frankly:


    "yes!"


    Although there were already speculations, Master Yun still looked shocked.


    Other monks and even some other formation masters may not understand what the ultimate formation means.


    8th level of Qi Refining.


    Master the ultimate formation of the first grade twelve patterns.


    This kind of thing goes against his common sense as a formation master.


    Young Master Yun felt a little depressed.


    In the Yun family, and even the entire state where the Yun family is located, I am a highly respected formation genius.


    But he only found out at this time.


    There are also differences between geniuses, and there are even worlds of difference.


    Some people are almost evil because of genius.


    He looked at the childish ink painting in front of him again and sighed in his heart.


    This is a little monster.


    Mo Hua saw that Young Master Yun looked a little disappointed, and didn''t know what he was thinking.


    Suddenly, Mo Hua''s eyes lit up slightly and she whispered:


    "Mr. Yun, do you know what formation is this?"


    Master Yun shook his head honestly and said in confusion:


    "What formation?"


    "Lingshu Formation." Mo Hua said.


    "Lingshu Formation..."


    Mr. Yun said it several times, nodded and praised, "It''s indeed a paradise. Just a name is unusual..."


    "Then..." Mo Hua blinked and tempted, "Do you want to learn?"


    Young Master Yun''s heart trembled and his mouth widened.


    He thought Mo Hua was teasing him, but when he looked up, Mo Hua''s eyes were as clear as water, without any teasing. Then he suppressed the excitement in his heart and nodded slowly:


    "think…"


    Without a formation master, you can withstand the temptation of formation.


    Mo Hua smiled and said, "Then I will teach you."


    Young Master Yun was even more surprised, "Would you like to teach me?"


    "Yeah." Mo Hua nodded, "The formation needs to be inherited in order to have a long history. If you cherish it yourself, no matter how precious the formation is, it will be cut off sooner or later."


    "Once it is cut off, no matter how precious the formation is, it will be useless."


    "Since you want to learn, I will teach you, but you have to promise me that you can''t do bad things."


    Young Master Yun couldn''t help but nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I promise you!"


    "There is one more thing..." Mo Hua said again, "After you learn, you should do me a favor."


    "Help?" Young Master Yun was stunned.


    "Yeah!" Mo Hua''s eyes shining brightly, "I want to build something and use the Lingshu Formation to control it. I can''t be busy alone and need your help."


    This is also what he had planned long ago.


    Manpower is sometimes exhausted.


    Although he is proficient in formation, he cannot do many things alone and will spend a lot of time.


    If someone helps, it will be different.


    What''s more, this matter requires the use of the Lingshu Formation.


    The first-grade twelve-patterned array has complex array patterns and high demand for spiritual consciousness. Almost no one in Nanyue City can learn it.


    But Young Master Yun should be able.


    He is a second-grade formation master or a formation genius, and his spiritual sense and insight should be enough.


    Mo Hua has long been thinking about him.


    Now he is "delivered to the door" by himself, and he is just going down the road and asks him for help.


    "Yes, yes..." Young Master Yun pondered for a moment and asked curiously, "But what are you going to help?"


    "Draw the formation for me."


    "Is the formation in the mine?"


    "There are some other things, you will know then..."


    Ink paintings were sold for a moment.


    So, Young Master Yun naturally became the "cool laborer" of ink painting.


    The mine needs to draw some early formations, build a formation framework, and pre-filled with some basic formations.


    Then let the zombies open up.


    After the mine is opened, the mine is dug, and then the subsequent formation is completed.


    These formations are very complicated.


    Including defense array, soil fixation array, lighting array, ventilation array, filth removal array, and some golden blade arrays that encounter monsters, temporary responses, etc.


    Mo Hua taught him how to draw the Lingshu array.


    While Master Yun was learning, he would help Mo draw the formation occasionally.


    Young Master Yun is a second-grade formation master. He draws first-grade formations at a very fast speed.


    But what made him unbelievable was that Mo Draw was faster than him!


    When he draws the formation, he also needs to look at the formation diagram and confirm the formation pattern.


    But you don’t even need to look at the ink paintings. Just rely on memory, your fair wrists are turned around, and your pen is like a dragon and a snake, and the pattern of formations appears under the pen.


    It seems casual, but the formations in the writing are both neat and rigorous, and they are not bad at all, and there is also a special charm.


    How many times have you drawn this...


    Young Master Yun was secretly shocked, and at the same time he felt relieved.


    Although he is talented, this hard work alone is something that ordinary formation masters cannot do.


    Time passes day by day.


    Master Yun’s spiritual hub formation was not learned quickly.


    The main reason is that his spiritual consciousness is limited and he can''t practice it several times a day, so he is inevitably unfamiliar with the formation patterns and his understanding is much slower.


    He finished practicing ink painting in one or two days after he was measured in one or two days.


    It is natural to make progress slower.


    When Mo Hua has time, he will also ask Young Master Yun for some knowledge of second-grade formations.


    His current formation level is far superior to that of the first-grade formation master.


    But things like the ultimate formation seem to be completely different from the second-grade formation.


    Mo Hua wants to know what thresholds there are for the second-grade formation master and the second-grade formation.


    Young Master Yun reciprocates his love and answers with all his heart:


    "When you reach the second level, the formation master and formation will be divided into the third level of junior high school, corresponding to the level of cultivation before, middle and after foundation building."


    "My cultivation level is only in the early stage of foundation building, so the level of the formation master is only at the first level of the second grade."


    "The second-grade formation is also difficult to learn and requires a lot of time and energy."


    "The level of the general formation master must be behind his own level of cultivation."


    "For example, in the early stage of foundation building, one is the first-grade formation master, the middle stage of foundation building, one is the second-grade formation master, and in the late stage of foundation building, one is the second-grade intermediate..."


    "I can become a second-grade first-level formation master in the early stage of foundation building, which is already considered to be..."


    Young Master Yun originally wanted to say "genius", but after looking at the ink painting, he said, "...it''s pretty good..."


    Mo Hua said curiously: "Can the Qi Refining Cultivator become a second-grade formation master?"


    Young Master Yun shook his head, "No."


    "Because your spiritual sense is not enough?"


    "Generally, it is because of insufficient spiritual consciousness. Another reason is spiritual power."


    "Spiritual power?"


    "Yeah." Young Master Yun explained, "There is a difference in spiritual consciousness between qi refining and foundation building, but the spiritual power is a difference in quality. Similarly, the first- and second-grade formations involve the formation and the spiritual power driven by the formation also have a difference in quality."


    "So, Qi Refining Cultivators cannot learn second-grade formations."


    Ink painting is a bit regretful.


    He thought that if his spiritual sense was strong enough, he could try to learn the second-grade formation.


    It seems that the restrictions on the major categories of Tiandao are still very strict.


    Among the same grades, you can go beyond the level and learn faster than others.


    But no matter how far you go, you can''t surpass the quality...


    The Reverse Spirit Array, Thick Earth Array and Spiritual Push Array. Although these ultimate formations are super-grade formations, they are still in the category of first-grade formations. They are first-grade formations, not second-grade formations.


    In essence, it is not a real "super" but should be considered a serious super-level...


    Mo Hua nodded and gained more understanding of the concept of grade.


    Later he asked some other questions.


    Young Master Yun answered one by one.


    Mo Hua treats people honestly. Young Master Yun is not very experienced in the world and has no scheming. He is also a formation master. As he chats, the two became much more familiar with each other and spoke very speculatively.


    Mo Hua teaches Master Yun’s Lingshu Formation.


    Young Master Yun was very grateful and thought that he could not repay him, so he secretly taught some of the formations passed down by the Yun family to Mo Hua.


    Mo Hua was a little disgusted, "Is it okay?"


    Young Master Yun blinked, "Just say I taught you."


    Mo Hua was stunned.


    Why does this sound familiar? It looks like Uncle Zhang Lan?


    Zhang Lan seemed to be so instructing him to learn from the Zhang family...


    After some time, in the mine, the early formation was drawn, and Young Master Yun also learned a rough idea of ??the spiritual hub formation.


    Mo Hua woke up the corpse king and asked the corpse king to walk out of the corpse mine with the iron corpse and tens of thousands of corpses and into various mines.


    Zombies all over the mountains followed the dispatch of Mo Hua, walked into the mines in an orderly manner, advanced in unison, and dug the mine shaft.


    This scene is both weird and harmonious.


    In order to fear that zombies will change, all the mine repairmen will stay in Tongxian City.


    Taoist soldiers were stationed around.


    Yang Jishan and several other foundation-building monks with deep cultivation looked alert and stared at the corpse king, afraid that it would betray the Lord and become a Taoist evil.


    In the mine, it became noisy again.


    It’s just that this time the work was not a mine repairman, but a zombie.


    Their movements are mechanically and repetitive, picks after picks, digging the mine bit by bit.


    For their descendants, we have created a home that can eat and wear and live a safe life...


    Under the control of Mo Hua, the corpse king did not change his corpse again. The iron corpse obeyed the orders, and all the walking corpses worked hard.


    Everything is going on in an orderly manner.


    More than a month later, the mine was dug.


    The mine is connected to several mines, with a huge scale, spacious passages, solid walls, and cleansing the foul air, which is both safe and comfortable.


    Mo Hua ordered the zombies again and returned to the corpse mine to sleep.


    The formation master of Daoting''s side completed the subsequent formations in the mine according to the array diagram of the ink painting.


    These formations are very simple, whether they are ink or not.


    Ink painting requires drawing something else.


    Mo Hua called Master Yun and came to a workshop in the city.


    The spacious courtyard is filled with some puppets made of hardwood, like cows and horses.


    Young Master Yun was a little surprised, "These are..."


    "Putao." Mo Hua said, "When painting the spiritual sirens, you can control the march by the spiritual sense, transport ore, reduce the hard work of mine repairs, and improve mining efficiency..."


    Young Master Yun came to his senses, "Is this the one you asked me to help?"


    "Yes." Mo Hua nodded, "I have to draw a lot of spiritual hub arrays. I can''t draw them by myself, so I want you to help me draw them."


    Young Master Yun nodded slightly, and at the same time he felt emotion.


    This is the real understanding of the formation and applying what you have learned.


    After learning the formation, you will use it just right to benefit more monks...


    He seems to have never done such a thing before.


    "Okay!" Young Master Yun said happily.


    Then he was a little confused, "Do these puppets have names?"


    "Yes!" Mo Huacanran smiled, "You can call them, ''wooden ox and flowing horse''!"
