Chapter 21 Gathering Spirits
Carefully placed the cloud stones on both sides of the room, carefully sprinkled with special silver powder, as the light flashed, all the materials used to form the formation disappeared, as if they had never existed.
Only then did Tang Jie let out a sigh of relief: "This gathering of spirits is finally a success."
The spirit-gathering array is a formation method that gathers the aura of heaven and earth, and it is also a relatively common formation method in the world of cultivating immortals. Cultivators often use this formation to gather spirits and arouse the aura of heaven and earth.
Although it is said that the practitioner's absorption of spiritual energy is mainly related to Yumen, the difference in the environment also has a significant impact on the practitioner. Even if it is the Nine Revolutions of Yumen, it is useless to practice in a place without spiritual energy.
It's just that the spirit-gathering array can't be arranged randomly like the little rosemary array. It needs some special materials as the foundation.
Like the pill puppets, the magic circle also has mortal spirit grades, which correspond to different levels.
For example, the small rosemary array is only ordinary, so it can be arranged by drawing a few spiritual lines.
The spirit-gathering formation is a first-grade spirit formation, so some materials are bound to be needed. Even if Xu Muyang claims to use the heaven and the earth as his formation, in fact he can't really do without any spell-casting materials, he just uses as little as he can.
And so far, the most powerful formation known is the Jiujue Zhuxian formation. Since it is called Zhuxian, it means surpassing the immortal rank, and it is precisely because of this that even the Tianshen Palace does not dare to forcibly break the formation.
As the foundation of the formation, Tang Jie has long mastered the deployment method of the gathering spirit formation, but here, he has never dared to deploy it.
The spirit-gathering array gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and its movement is much larger than that of the little rosemary array. Once it is activated, it will definitely be discovered.
He can't let anyone know that he understands formations!
At least not now!
If Tianshen Palace knows that he understands this, then his identity can basically be confirmed.
Tang Jie's plan only needs the other party's suspicion, not the other party's confirmation!
So no matter what, he couldn't give Tianshen Palace and Xiyue faction a chance to confirm himself.
But when Xie Fengtang set up a guard formation for him in Tao Ranju, everything changed again.
With the big formation outside as a cover, no matter how he tosses about inside, he will not be noticed. Even if he notices, he will only think it is the fluctuation of the big formation outside.
For Tang Jie, this is also the first time he has truly set up a magic circle. Compared with this time, it was just laying the foundation before.
The formation this time is like a chef in training who has finally graduated and started to cook for the guests.
Fortunately, the guest is also himself, so he doesn't have to worry about evaluation.
At this moment, the Spirit Gathering Formation was launched, Tang Jie was in the formation, and began to feel the gathering of spiritual energy.
Under the action of the Spirit Gathering Formation, more and more spiritual energy from the heavens and the earth gathered, almost actively rushing toward Tang Jie's body—the faucet of Yumen Five Turns may not be opened too much, but the speed suddenly accelerated.
Tang Jie has taken advantage of the situation and started to run around the sky, greedily absorbing every bit of spiritual energy, turning them into spiritual liquid and dropping them into the spiritual space, and then turning them into spells to release, and the cycle is endless, spells change, one water mask after another On Tang Jie's body, he was born, disillusioned, regenerated, and disillusioned again.
The effect of the spirit-gathering array is very obvious, and Tang Jie's mana recovery speed has almost doubled.
Even so, Tang Jie was still dissatisfied. After reaching a certain level of proficiency, it became more and more difficult as it went up.
From the water mask once every 20 seconds to once every 6 seconds, it may be possible to do it after hundreds of times of proficiency, but if it goes up further, it may take hundreds of times of hard practice to increase the release speed by one second. .
Fortunately, Tang Jie not only has the Spirit Gathering Formation, but also the elixir Xie Fengtang gave him.
In order to quickly master the water mask, half of Tang Jie's choices were medicines for returning to spirit.
In Qixia Realm, most of the spirit-returning medicines are not able to replenish spiritual power after ingestion, but the medicine itself contains a lot of spiritual energy, and it is very easy to be condensed into liquid, but it also needs to be completed through small circles.
At this moment, Tang Jie took a piece of Huiling Pill, and he felt that the spiritual energy in his body was filled immediately, and after a small week, thirty spiritual liquids were condensed directly, not only that,
Even Xiao Zhoutian's running speed suddenly accelerated, mainly due to the effect of the medicine, the coagulation process was extremely smooth.
While Tang Jie continued to refine the remaining properties of the medicine, he continued to rapidly consume the replenished aura with the water mask, and became proficient in the application of the water mask.
After one night, he finally absorbed all the medicinal properties of the elixir. Tang Jie did some calculations. This night, he actually ran the small circle for more than seventy times. The speed was twice as fast as before. It should be mainly refining For the sake of ease, and this process also greatly improved his little Zhou Tian's proficiency in movement itself.
At the same time, he also released the water mask more than 200 times, and finally increased the release speed of the water mask to nearly five seconds.
A bottle of Huiling Pill has ten pills, and five bottles of Huiling Pill can be used for fifty days. Tang Jie estimated that two to three bottles would be enough to release his water mask within one second.
Seeing that it was already dawn, Tang Jie felt refreshed, and withdrew from the spirit gathering array, and then walked out of the house to go to class.
—————————————
During class during the day, Tang Jie saw that Wei Tianchong was listless, so he wrote with a pen and asked Wei Tianchong: "Why didn't you sleep last night?"
Wei Tianchong wrote back: "Oh, don't mention it, I finally know what the disadvantages of making puppets are. It's okay for us to practice without sleep all night, but making puppets is not cultivation! I've been busy all night, and now I'm sleepy to death .”
"Then go to sleep. Anyway, as long as you don't talk, it's okay to sleep in class."
"What about that class? There will be a big exam in a few days."
"Anyway, whether you listen or not, you can't pass the test, so you can continue to take it when the time comes."
"Tang Jie, did you ever say that to the young master?"
"I'm not talking, I'm writing."
"...Tang Jie, do you think I'm really right to be a puppet? Yesterday my elder brother came again and taught me a lesson, saying that I'm not doing my job properly."
"The fairy road is very narrow and very long, but there may not be only one fairy road. Everyone has their own road, young master, you are suitable for this. If you believe me, you will walk along this road, I promise If you can succeed, don't forget that I expect you to become the top ten disciples."
"Don't mention the top ten. But after I made it last night, I realized that making puppets is also quite interesting. Every material has its own function. Putting it in different positions and using different formations can stimulate different effects. , It’s really interesting. My sculpting skills are not enough to make puppets.”
"As long as you like it, if you are interested, you can achieve it with a little persistence. By the way, how long is it expected for your puppet to be completed?"
"Anyway, it's my first work. I want to do better, at least twenty days. However, after a few senior brothers found out, they all said that it was too young, and it was not easy to practice formation. Unless the master is invited to help, ordinary students are afraid Not that capable."
"Don't worry, I can help you out."
"You know how to form an array?"
"I won't, but I know people who will."
"An expert?"
"A master who can't hide from the world, a crouching tiger, a hidden dragon among students, a super model who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger, and a generation of peerless masters."
"...Tang Jie, you are talking nonsense to me again!"
"Where did you get the word, young master! In short, I guarantee that your formation formation is perfect, and the first-rank war puppet is enough to shock the world. But if you want to make a formation formation that satisfies you, the price may be more expensive."
"How many?"
"One hundred spiritual coins."
"If you can do what you said, a hundred spirit coins will be worth it."
"That's fine." Tang Jie smiled and stopped writing.

eagle's nest.
Gu Changqing sat in his seat, and a new book table was placed in front of him.
After contemplating for a moment, Gao Fei finally said: "If he is really Tang Jie, what does the Eagle Master think his successor will be?"
Gu Changqing shook his head: "I don't know, this young man has exceeded our expectations, and some things can no longer be estimated or speculated. To deal with such an opponent, sometimes the simplest method is the most convenient."
Gao Fei's eyes flashed brightly: "The Eagle Lord means..."
"The worst thing about fine things is savage treatment. When the opponent has laid out an interlocking plan, sometimes what you need to do is not to untie it, that will only follow the enemy's path, and will only make yourself more difficult. The trap is getting deeper and deeper, so the most suitable thing at this time is to directly destroy it with thunder! Since the opponent wants to play with fire, let him know that he has no ability to control the fire. When he ignited the fire, the fire rushed towards him and swallowed him alive!"
Speaking of this, Gu Changqing sneered and said: "Immediately send someone to arrest Tang Jie, and use soul searching techniques to torture him!"
Do you still have to do it?
Gao Fei frowned: "Could you be too anxious? Actually, we still have some other means to check. We can go to Anyang first and find someone who has met Tang Jie."
"What if the opponent thinks the same way?" Gu Changqing asked back: "Anyang's sky is long and water is far away. When we find someone, I don't know when. I'm afraid he will have some tricks at that time to make us run away. The opponent is so cunning, we have to take some extraordinary measures. Besides, it’s not like those guys haven’t invited them here before, and you’ve seen the result.”
Gao Fei naturally knew.
In the past three years, there have been many suspects. They have also invited people from Anyang to come, but those people don't remember Tang Jie's appearance, and the people from Tianshen Palace are scary.
The two times I made a mistake last time, one time was because those guys pointed at the deer as a horse.
"And I always feel that if Tang Jie is smart enough, he might not be unprepared for this matter." Gu Changqing added.
Gao Fei also quite agreed with what he heard. Even so, he reminded: "That's what you say, but you have to try it before you know it. And if the soul search fails to find the clue, you may completely lose hope. The cost of the soul search It's too high..."
"So you have to torture first, and soul search is the last option. As for the cost, you don't need to think about it."
"Then what if we find the wrong person?"
"So before we succeed, we can't let Tianshen Palace get involved anymore..." Speaking of this, Gu Changqing also paused and sighed: "We can't make the mistakes of the previous two times again, this time we have to think of other ways. "
"The Xiyue faction has noticed Tang Jie, and they won't believe it if they do it at this time."
"They don't need to believe it, as long as there is an explanation."
Gao Fei stopped talking.
He already understood what Gu Changqing meant.
Gu Changqing sighed leisurely: "Be prepared to sacrifice a life... If you want to achieve great things, you must sacrifice. If a life can be exchanged for a military lesson, it is extremely worthwhile."
"Yes!" Gao Fei bowed his head.
But I couldn't help thinking in my heart, I'm afraid it might not be worth it to the person who was sacrificed. This matter cannot be expected to be voluntary, after all, it is necessary to use some thought.
Gu Changqing said again: "You can decide on the candidate."
Gao Fei sneered in his heart, knowing that Gu Changqing had pushed the problem onto himself, and if something went wrong, he would be the one to be unlucky.
But as a subordinate, if he doesn't take the blame, who will take the blame?
"How much time do you need?" Gu Changqing asked.
After thinking for a while, Gao Fei replied: "At least one month, Tang Jie's residence is now guarded by a magic circle, and after this incident, no matter whether he is Tang Jie or not, he may be vigilant, and it will take time to approach slowly. Unless ..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless we let Violent Ape take action."
"No!" Gu Changqing resolutely vetoed it: "The Violent Ape is our last trump card. It is not easy to cultivate. It is not allowed to be used until the end of the mountain!"
"yes!"
"I'll give you forty days. Within forty days, Tang Jie must be caught!"
"Subordinates understand!" Gao Fei replied loudly.

PS: I don't want to explain too much about Wu Xing. Different people have different opinions. I just write some people I see in my eyes. Regarding the practices of the Moon Cleaners, I can only say that they are well-known and decent, and they are also the ruling party, so they will not kill their own people for a little gain. The world view of this book is still biased towards the present world in general, without the concept that I am the strong and all things are pigs and dogs, at least it is not so straightforward, not so naked. I personally sneer at the so-called concept that if I have a treasure, I will definitely be treated by the country. It seems that there are always people who think that if I have special functions, I will be arrested and dissected by the country. But in reality, such a thing is impossible.
There are no real supernatural powers in China, and there are countless fake supernatural powers. Many high-ranking officials believe it, and no one has been arrested for autopsy.
not!
The reason why dark things are dark is because they are hidden in the shadows. In this book, there will be some existences who are strong and can kill everything, but such people usually do not end well.
Things that are not on the table must exist, and they must not become great weapons, at least they should not exist on the bright side of large organizations such as the Xiyue Sect and Tianshen Palace.
