Mo Hua began to draw the Compass Parent-Child Compound Formation on the Taoist Stele.
A Single Formation starts with drawing Formation Patterns, connecting independent patterns through the Formation Pivot. A Compound Formation, on the other hand, starts with the Formation Pivot, coordinating different Single Formations through the central covenant of the Formation Pivot.
When drawing a Single Formation, the brush can pause slightly, but Divine Sense must not be broken.
If Divine Sense breaks, the mystery of the Heavenly Dao inherent in the Formation will not be connected, the Drawing Formation will fail, and the drawn Formation Patterns will be voided.
According to Mr. Zhuang, Formation Masters call this "Creation with a Single Thought."
That is, with an unbroken Divine Thought, the Formation is drawn out in one breath.
A Single Formation must be created with a single thought, whereas a Compound Formation is different; it does not need to be entirely made in one breath.
