Kendo projection world.
Xu Jun, who had just finished practicing sword, suddenly had a whim and went to the Sutra Library.
After staying in it for a day, he left and went directly to Lei Pei.
"Master, I want to learn the way of formation."
Now the relationship between the master and the disciple is very harmonious, far from the time when Lei Pei just returned to the mountain.
So, Xu Jun said whatever he wanted, without any scruples.
Lei Pei was startled, he stroked his long beard lightly, and said: "This, with your talent, it's better to wait until the golden elixir before considering this issue."
The master and the disciple did not know that in another world, there was also a Xu Jun who encountered the same problem.
However, no matter which world, the way to cultivate genius disciples is exactly the same. Seek realm first, then talk about other things. If the realm is delayed because of studying other aspects, it will be a matter of regret.
Xu Jun shook his head slightly and said: "Master, the disciple has made up his mind."
Lei Pei grinned and felt that his head was as big as a bucket.
In name, he was indeed Xu Jun's master, and he had given some advice. But let alone him, everyone in the Qinglian Sword Sect knew that Xu Jun's sword realm was cultivated by himself.
As for Lei Pei, this master... it can't be said that he is dispensable, but it can only be said that he is slightly better than nothing.
So, when Xu Jun decided to learn the formation now, Lei Pei couldn't say a hard word.
"Master, the sect's formation inheritance jade talismans are all encrypted and locked, and they need the permission of Jindan Zhenren to read. I used the identity of Qinglian Sword Master, but I couldn't unlock it. I can only ask for help from you."
After he obtained the identity of Qinglian Sword Master, all the sword secret books and cultivation secret books in the Sutra Library were opened to him.
No matter when to read or what level of secret books to read, there are no restrictions, and no contribution from the sect is required.
However, the formations related to swordsmanship were closed to him.
Before, Xu Jun didn't feel anything about it, because he had never thought about learning formations. But now it's different. He suddenly got a feeling. If he wants to bring the power of the origin of sword energy to its extreme, he must study the art of formation.
Although Xu Jun didn't know why he suddenly had such a feeling.
However, similar feelings have appeared repeatedly in recent years and have helped him solve many problems.
Therefore, Xu Jun did not reject it, but actively did it. Lei
Pei hesitated for a moment and said cautiously: "Disciple, if you don't learn now, you can learn after you become a golden elixir. Is it really impossible?"
Xu Jun said without hesitation: "Master, please help me." Lei Pei had no
choice but to say: "Okay, but Disciple, come back the day after tomorrow."
Xu Jun raised his head, with a questioning look in his eyes.
Lei Pei sighed, "I can't make the decision on your matter alone. I have to report to the sect master, and then convene the elders to discuss it together." After a pause, he said, "Don't think too much. This is the rule that all generations of Qinglian Sword Masters must follow. Since you are already a sword master, there is no exception."
Xu Jun thought for a while and said, "Master, I will go with you."
Lei Pei frowned slightly and said, "Why, you don't trust me?"
"Of course I trust Master, I just want to see who will oppose my disciple."
Lei Pei was dumbfounded. What is this? Those who
can become elders of the Qinglian Sword Sect are all Jindan cultivators.
Even if they oppose you, they have their own considerations. You are a foundation-building...
Lei Pei hesitated for a moment and finally decided to take him with him.
Anyway, in his heart, Xu Jun has long ceased to be regarded as a foundation-building person.
It is estimated that the brothers who saw Xu Jun's breakthrough that day also had the same idea.
Soon, the two of them came to the sect master's peak.
This is where the successive clan leaders lived. Once you become a clan leader, you must move here to perform your duties as a clan leader.
The two submitted applications to meet the clan leader and were immediately granted permission.
At this moment, even Lei Pei looked at his beloved disciple a few more times.
Before, although he was allowed to meet the clan leader every time, he had to wait for a while. This time, he was received almost as soon as the application was submitted.
It must be said that his beloved disciple has more face in front of his brother than himself.
At this moment, Lei Pei was a little disappointed, but more proud.
You people may be much stronger than me, but when it comes to the ability to train disciples, you can't catch up.
If you have the ability, train a contemporary swordsman for me!
Lei Pei thought proudly.
Soon, the two met Lu Meixian Zhenren.
"Greetings, Senior Brother (Sect Master)."
"No need to be polite." Lu Meixian nodded to Lei Pei, then said with a smile: "Jianzi, what's the matter?"
Xu Jun said solemnly: "Disciple wants to learn the way of formation, please allow me, Sect Master."
"The way of formation?" Lu Meixian hesitated for a moment, and said: "Why don't you wait a few more years, after you have reached the golden elixir stage, you can do anything without any taboos."
Xu Jun raised his head and said: "Because I suddenly had a whim and felt that learning the way of
formation would bring great benefits to me." "Ah!" Lu Meixian was silent for a while, and said: "You are Jianzi, and we will give you any advice on your path of cultivation. However, learning the way of formation during the foundation-building period..."
He was silent for a long time, and Lei Pei's palms were sweating.
After all, with Xu Jun's talent in swordsmanship, such a request is unique in the Qinglian Sword Sect.
Finally, Lu Meixian said, "You have two choices. First, I will send a letter to inform the ancestor of this matter and wait for him to make a decision. Second, I will convene the elders' meeting, and you will state your ideas at the meeting. If you can get more than half of the people's approval, I will approve it."
Xu Jun said without hesitation, "Disciple chooses the second way."
The Nascent Soul Patriarch of the Qinglian Sword Sect has been in seclusion for thirty years, and has only sent out two messages in the middle.
Although everyone was very worried, no one dared to disturb him casually.
Therefore, Xu Jun would never choose the first way.
Lu Meixian responded, and he flicked his hands slightly and cast a small spell.
Soon, a water mirror appeared in front of them.
Golden Core Technique, Remote Mirror Technique.
After using this spell, all the Golden Core True People of the Qinglian Sword Sect can receive the communication request from the Sect Master. Unless they are in seclusion for cultivation, or they are busy with something, most of them will squeeze out time.
Because, when the Sect Master uses this kind of magic to notify, it must be that something big has happened.
After a while, the mirrors lit up one by one.
A total of 19 mirrors lit up, but the last five mirrors were always dim.
Lu Meixian didn't wait any longer, and waved his sleeves to put the mirrors into his sleeves.
"My fellow disciples, how are you?"
"Hello, Sect Master."
"My fellow disciples, you suddenly convened a meeting of elders. Is there something big going on?"
Lu Meixian nodded slightly at Xu Jun, who stepped forward and bowed to everyone, saying, "Hello, uncles."
Everyone had different reactions, but most of them nodded in return, saying, "Sword Master, no need to be polite."
Although Qinglian Sword Master was not as good as them in terms of cultivation, he was not inferior to them in terms of the treatment he enjoyed.
However, no one was dissatisfied, because the Qinglian Sword Master of this session was the only one who passed the election unanimously in all the generations.
Xu Jun raised his head, looked around, and suddenly stretched out his hand.
"Huh..."
Sword Qi suddenly flew up from his body.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
The whole hall was filled with boundless sword energy.
Ten positive and negative five-element sword images were formed in an instant, and each sword image was filled with some kind of mysterious and profound truth of the Great Dao.
And when all the truths were gathered together.
The more heart-shaking truth of life and death was looming.
A sword truth that was terrifying even for the Jindan Zhenren was released bit by bit.
Even in the mirror, many Jindan Zhenren could still sense the huge pressure from this sword master who was only in the foundation-building stage.
Everyone's face changed a little, and they were shocked.
This sword intention,
this sword intention!
At the same time, they had a thought that they didn't want to admit.
If their opponent is the master of this sword intent,
then, can they win the battle?
This is the first time in their lives that they have felt uncertain when facing a foundation-building cultivator.
Lu Meixian, Lei Pei and several Jindan Zhenren who had the honor of seeing Xu Jun survive the heavenly tribulation in the past laughed bitterly. What on earth is this kid trying to do!
However, even they had never thought that Xu Jun could improve his sword intent to such a level after only building his foundation for a few years.
The Five Elements True Meaning is fine, and even the Life and Death True Meaning seems to be similar.
Huh?
When did I feel that the Five Elements True Meaning is fine?
Xu Jun released his sword intent, intimidating all directions.
He said loudly: "My fellow uncles, my nephew has practiced swordsmanship and has achieved success in the Thousand Swords, but the power is not enough. I want to study the way of formation. The master uncle said that more than half of the elders' council must agree, so please help me." The
Thousand Swords have achieved success! Hearing this, more Jindans were filled with emotion.
There are thousands of sword energy origins. Even among Jindan sword cultivators, not everyone can do this.
It can be said that among ten Jindan sword cultivators, only one can finally cultivate a thousand swords into a formation.
The more sword energy origins are engraved, the more difficult it is.
Xu Jun can ignore all these troubles, but others really can't.
After a long time, an old man said leisurely: "Since Jianzi has completed the thousand swords, the road to Jindan will naturally be unobstructed. I agree."
Many people were stunned at first, and then regretted it. Why were they a step late?
"Second."
"Second."
"I second the motion..."
...
Lu Meixian watched all this silently, feeling deeply moved.
He had already seen that at least one-fifth of the fellow disciples had adjusted their mindsets.
They no longer regarded Xu Jun as a junior who had just established his foundation, but as a peer, and even had some intention of clinging to him.
Overpowering the contemporary generation!
This was the charm of the peerless genius who could overpower the contemporary generation.
...
...
On the top of the mountain, Xu Jun picked up a jade talisman of inheritance and read it silently with his spiritual sense.
Any super sect with a Nascent Soul would have an inheritance of the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation.
Regardless of the level of the inheritance, the foundation was not bad. A primary inheritance like "The Beginning of the Way of Formation" would never be lacking in the Nascent Soul sect.
Xu Jun finished reading it, and then looked at the fellow disciple Fei Gang who was good at formation in the sect.
Although this fellow disciple was also a sword cultivator, his talent in the way of sword was really lackluster. However, he still found his position in the Qinglian Sword Sect, and performed well in the art of formation among the hundred arts of cultivating immortals. After
decades of practice, he was finally promoted to a second-level formation master.
Then, with the help of resources from the sect, he built his foundation twice in thirty years and finally succeeded in becoming a foundation-building cultivator.
Of course, there is also a third-level formation master in the Qinglian Sword Sect.
However, Fei Gang, a second-level foundation-building formation master, is more than enough to guide Xu Jun, a new formation cultivator.
In fact, if Xu Jun's identity was not special and he had the title of Qinglian Sword Master, it would be a great honor to have a first-level formation master come forward when facing a newcomer.
In most cases, a book like "The Beginning of Formation" is thrown to you first. You take it to study, and if the level of research can satisfy me, then I will teach you. But if you can't research anything...
then there will be no future.
This is how most sects select talents. Those who are qualified for this kind of one-on-one guidance are either very powerful or the people behind him are very powerful.
And Xu Jun undoubtedly has both.
Regardless of his identity as the Green Lotus Swordman, or the elders behind him, including the Sect Master, they were not people that Fei Gang could offend.
Therefore, when facing Xu Jun, he was not as arrogant as he was when facing ordinary disciples of the sect. Instead, he was trembling with fear and caution.
"Swordman, have you read "First-level Formation Layout"? Do you have any doubts?" Fei Gang asked with a smile, and his voice was extremely soft, as if he was afraid that a loud voice would scare people.
Xu Jun frowned slightly and said, "Brother Fei, this formation layout... doesn't seem to be too difficult."
Fei Gang was stunned and actually didn't know how to answer.
This book is indeed not difficult!
It is the foundation of the foundation, and the so-called first-level formation is just an example of a gathering spirit formation.
It can be said that more than 90% of the formation masters who are new to the field of formations will arrange the first formation, which is the gathering spirit formation. Because this is one of the simplest and most basic formations of the immortal family.
However, for a novice...
that is to say, this sentence is from the Green Lotus Swordman, whom he cannot afford to offend, otherwise he would have scolded him long ago.
"Ahem, Jianzi, what do you feel after reading this book?"
Xu Jun's eyes lit up, and he said, "This book records a spirit gathering formation. And the so-called spirit gathering requires first sensing the aura and aura nodes. Only by mastering these two can you be qualified to set up the formation."
Fei Gang nodded slightly and complimented, "Jianzi really hit the nail on the head. In fact, our immortal formation, no matter what kind of formation it is, no matter what level it is, what we are looking for are two key points. Aura and aura nodes, as long as you grasp them, then any formation will remain essentially the same."
Xu Jun bowed his head slightly and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior brother."
"Hehe, Jianzi, in which book have you read a similar passage before?" Fei Gang said seriously, "If Jianzi has any feelings about that book, you can start learning from it first."
"No." Xu Jun pointed to the inheritance jade talisman on the table and said, "Aren't they all written on it?"
"Oh, it's written here?" Fei Gang looked suspicious and said, "This book "First-level Formation Layout" is the first book on the art of formation that I learned. It has more than 13,000 words. When I first started, I studied it for a whole year and memorized all the contents..." He hesitated and said, "But, it seems that these words are not written on it."
Xu Jun laughed dumbly and said, "Brother, you misunderstood. Although it is not written on it, the content inside mentions spiritual power concentration and spiritual power nodes everywhere. I just said it casually."
"Casually..." Fei Gang was stunned for a long time and said in a lost voice, "You, summarized it yourself?"
Xu Jun nodded slightly and said, "Yes."
Fei Gang's eyes were a little weird, his face was shocked, but he didn't believe it in his heart.
I have heard for a long time that this swordsman is good at everything, but he likes to play the pig and eat the tiger. Forget it, forget it, I can't afford to offend him, so let's fulfill his wish.
After a moment, Fei Gang, who thought he had been shocked enough, said: "Jianzi, since you must have understood the essence of the formation, why not start practicing directly."
"Practice directly?"
"That's right, as the saying goes, seeing a thousand times is not as good as seeing it once. Only by setting up the formation yourself can you have the greatest impression."
Xu Jun nodded vigorously and said, "Brother, you are right, just what I want."
Fei Gang smiled slightly and spread his sleeves.
Suddenly, dozens of rays of light flew out from his sleeves.
Each of these rays of light is a formation flag. Once the formation flag flies out, it will grow in the wind, flutter in the air for a while, and slowly fall down.
Xu Jun watched silently, and then saw these formation flags fall to the ground.
Then, something surprising happened.
When the formation flag fell to the ground, Xu Jun clearly sensed that the spiritual energy around him was weakening at a rapid speed.
It was as if there was a huge monster devouring the spiritual energy around him.
Xu Jun naturally understood that Fei Gang could not possibly murder him, but he was still a little surprised to suddenly encounter such a strange scene.
"Senior Brother Fei, this is..."
"Jianzi, this is the Soul Locking Array. I have placed thirty-six conspicuous array flags here. Each of these flags has a corresponding function. Jianzi might as well try and see how many flags you need to pull out to break this Soul Locking Array."
Xu Jun blinked, a little puzzled.
This is a bit beyond the scope, isn't it?
However, Fei Gang added: "The two most important points of the formation are to find the source of spiritual energy and the nodes of spiritual energy. And this soul-locking formation is created to cultivate the sensing ability of the formation master in this regard. You have to sense carefully and then pull out the flags. The fewer formation flags you pull out, the deeper your perception is."
Xu Jun understood a little. He sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and sensed silently.
Fei Gang smiled and sat opposite Xu Jun.
He was not lying. The soul-locking formation is indeed a formation that most low-level formation masters use to train their sensitivity when they are just starting out.
But the problem is that the beginners that Fei Gang mentioned refer to those beginners who have studied for at least a year and a half and know how to find the source of spiritual energy and nodes.
If you can't even do these two, it means that you don't have the talent of a formation master at all, and you don't need to learn.
And the reason why he made it so difficult when they first met was actually well-intentioned.
He wanted Xu Jun to feel that the formation was difficult and not easy to get started. In this way, in future teaching, Xu Jun can listen to him.
The teaching effect of a student who listens to the teacher carefully and a student who doesn't take the teacher seriously is very different.
In order to make Xu Jun study well, he also took great pains.
At this time, seeing Xu Jun really following his instructions and sensing the flags of the Soul Locking Array, he couldn't help but laugh secretly.
Although these flags did not cast any illusions or blinding methods, they were all placed in front of you.
However, it is not easy for you to find the key points.
Thirty-six flags, it is already very good if you can restore the surrounding spiritual energy to its original state before pulling out half of them.
The way of formation is profound and is not inferior to the way of swordsmanship. Jianzi still needs to be tempered more.
At this time, Xu Jun has released his spiritual sense.
The range covered by the thirty-six flags is not large, and they are all within the range of his spiritual sense. However, it is quite difficult to distinguish them using spiritual sense.
Because the spiritual power around each flag seems to be of the same size, it is extremely difficult to distinguish the importance of the flags by this point.
If Xu Jun was a high-level formation master, he could naturally infer something from all kinds of clues and the subtle changes in the surrounding spiritual power.
However, with his current half-baked level...
Although he had just read a book on formation layout, he was no different from a novice in formation in front of a second-level formation master.
After a moment, Xu Jun released the sword heart.
In an instant, the range of the sword heart had completely covered the range of the spiritual consciousness.
Sword heart, that is, spiritual consciousness!
Then, a mysterious and wonderful feeling surged into his heart.
If he was confused and unable to distinguish the changes in the spiritual energy around him just now, then at this moment, a formation diagram full of red dots emerged in his mind.
In his perception, each red dot seemed to have turned into a sword energy.
After having the experience of ten swords forming a diagram, thirty-six red dots seemed to be able to turn into a sword energy diagram.
Moreover, in his mind, the sword energy diagram just stood in the air, as if it was a dead object and could not move.
Well, which one is more important?
With his swordsmanship clear, it seemed that nothing could escape his gaze.
He found the most important point among the thirty-six red dots almost in the next moment. This point was particularly huge and shining, like a moon surrounded by stars, emitting a light that could not be ignored.
Is it this one?
This thought came to Xu Jun's mind.
Then, he stood up and walked towards a point on the periphery of the thirty-six red dots.
When he got here, Xu Jun reached out, grabbed the formation flag itself, and then pulled it hard.
Suddenly, all the red dots disappeared.
The spiritual power around him swarmed in, and in just half a minute, it had returned to normal.
Xu Jun turned his head, and the smile on his face was as dazzling and brilliant as the rising sun.
"Brother Fei, this is it."
...
