"My lord, the essence of Formation lies in learning how to extrapolate from one case to many, to be intuitive, rather than just... rote memorization,"

Shen Yi sat in the empty cave dwelling, vigorously massaging his temples.
Charts of various formations raced through his mind, slightly overwhelming his spirit.
After nearly two thousand years of extrapolation,
Shen Yi had finally mastered the seven books on Formation.
With his current understanding of Formation, he could barely be called a master.
However, it was not until he began to deduce the entirety of the Xu Family's Formation Diagram Manual
that he realized all he had learned was merely the basics.
The Xu Family's manual recorded a total of thirteen hundred formation diagrams.
Just the Dragon Locking Array alone could evolve into nearly a hundred variations; what seemed to be minor adjustments could lead to entirely different outcomes.
