Chapter 389 Shortcut
Mo Hua had another doubt:
"But, Master, isn't the land not suitable for array medium?"
Generally, array masters would not use the land as the array medium of the array.
Because the texture of the land is either soft or moist, and it is also lost due to dryness and weathering, it is difficult to take shape over a long period of time, and it is not suitable for carrying array patterns.
Mr. Zhuang corrected: "It is not that it is not suitable as an array medium, but most array masters cannot use it as an array medium."
"If you can't do it, you can't understand it. Over time, most array masters think that the land is not suitable for array medium."
Mo Hua thought for a while and said weakly:
"Then how can the land carry the array pattern?"
He still didn't quite understand.
"What is the essence of the array pattern of the array?" Mr. Zhuang asked.
"It is the embodiment of the trajectory of the flow of spiritual power." Mo Hua replied.
He has learned the calculation of divine consciousness, and has drawn large arrays. He has also controlled the flow of spiritual power in the array pattern with the array hub of the large array, so his understanding is very profound.
Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Do you remember what I told you? Some formation masters only follow the diagram, and draw the formation pattern rigidly. They dare not add or subtract a stroke, but the formation they draw still has no effect."
"Because it only has the form, but no internal spiritual power flows, the formation they draw is just an empty shell."
"And some formation masters are not bound by the form, and draw at will, but the formation is natural."
"This is because this type of formation master is communicating with the avenue with spiritual consciousness and controlling the flow of spiritual power with formation patterns, rather than drawing the formation pattern rigidly."
Mo Hua suddenly realized and was a little absent-minded.
Mr. Zhuang smiled and said, "Do you understand?"
Mo Hua frowned and thought:
"The array medium needs to carry the array pattern, but in fact, it is not the array pattern that it carries, but the spiritual power that the array pattern communicates. ̢̜̳̱͈̹͓͛͜ḩ̷̻̩͍̱̗͔̺̏̓͊̀͂̀ͅu ̵̰̙̻͉̦͙̗̥̉̓̓͊̑̂̑x̸͍̘̳͂͊̂̊̀͊̕͘.̷̹̦̆̆c̶͙͈͚̽̄̈̎̒͜ó̶̧̧̝̳̠͇͕̺̲̹̔̈́̃͝͝m̷̗͓̽̂̌̋̃̌”
“Discard its form and seek its origin.”
“The array pattern is only the appearance of the array, and the inner flow of spiritual power is the essence of the array.”
“So with ‘ground’ as the array medium, what the ground has to carry is actually the inner spiritual power, not just the array pattern on the surface. "
"As long as the spiritual power of the formation matches the earth, and the formation pattern is integrated with the earth, then even if the land is dry, wet and weathered, the formation will still exist."
The more Mo Hua spoke, the clearer his thoughts became, and his eyes sparkled.
Mr. Zhuang looked at Mo Hua and sighed in his heart:
"You understand it at once. This is the understanding of the formation, and... the affinity with the Tao..."
"Master, is that so?"
Mo Hua asked with a bright look in his eyes.
Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Yes."
Mo Hua laughed happily, and then he was a little confused:
"There should be many formation masters who understand this principle. Why haven't I seen other formation masters use the 'ground' as a formation medium?"
Mo Hua then added: "...Except for the ancestor of the Sun family."
Mr. Zhuang said: "The principle is clear, but it is a completely different matter to actually do it."
"Is it difficult?"
Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Even if you understand these principles, then what? How to make the land carry spiritual power? How to make the array pattern and the earth one? How to draw the array? What array should I draw? "
"The principle is simple to say, but it is difficult to do it, and even impossible to start."
Mo Hua nodded, thinking for a moment, and his eyes lit up again:
"So, the key is still this thick earth array?"
Mr. Zhuang raised his eyebrows slightly, indicating Mo Hua to continue.
Mo Hua continued to think:
"Since this thick earth array is a formation of "thick virtue carries all things", it contains the way of the earth, and it is also a formation with "earth" as the medium. "
"In other words, learning this array is to learn to use "earth" as the medium, and to comprehend the array is to comprehend the way of the earth of "thick virtue carries all things." "
"After learning the array and comprehending the great way, you can naturally make the earth carry spiritual power and make the array pattern and the earth one. "
Mr. Zhuang smiled slightly and said, "Well said."
Mo Hua smiled shyly, "Master taught well!"
Mr. Zhuang laughed slightly, shook his head, and then slowly said:
"When a cultivator realizes the Tao, he only focuses on perception, which is inevitably illusory and formal without substance."
"And the formation is the manifestation of the Tao, and it is a bridge between the cultivator and the illusory Tao."
"Only by comprehending the formation, using the formation, and combining the real and the unreal can one truly comprehend the Tao."
"The formation master has exhausted the formation and is close to the Tao. Only by obtaining the Tao can one live forever..."
Mr. Zhuang looked at Mo Hua, his eyes were deep and full of expectations.
"Exhausting the formation and being close to the Tao..."
Mo Hua silently recited it, his eyes were clear, and his expression became more and more determined.
He nodded, saluted solemnly and said:
"Master, I remember it! "
After Mr. Zhuang finished speaking, his eyes, which were originally deep, became lazy again, and he waved his hand and said:
"Learn more about the thick earth formation and see how much you can understand. If you have any questions, come to me again."
"Yes!"
Mo Hua went to practice the formation again.
In the courtyard, the mountain breeze blew.
Old Kui appeared silently behind Mr. Zhuang and frowned, saying: "Do you have to teach such a deep thing?"
"He can learn it, why not teach it?"
Mr. Zhuang thought for a while and sighed:
"I originally just wanted him to try to find the formation and practice the method of derivation. When he really can't find it, I will tell him the reason."
"I didn't expect him to find it himself."
"He even deduced the formation diagram..."
"These things are difficult, but since he can learn them, there is no reason not to teach them."
"Time is short, I also want to teach him more things..."
Old Kui raised his eyebrows slightly, "You think you are good?"
"Not really." Mr. Zhuang shook his head, "It's just a coincidence. Before coming here, I didn't expect that the Earth Sect's formation would be hidden here."
After speaking, Mr. Zhuang's eyes moved slightly, "I don't know if I am lucky or Mo Hua is lucky."
The Earth Sect's formation is not an ordinary formation.
Old Kui was a little confused: "Is there any branch of the Earth Sect with the surname Sun?"
"It's just a surname, just a name, don't take it seriously." Mr. Zhuang said lightly.
Old Kui nodded, raised his eyes slightly, looked at the continuous spiritual fields, and sighed: "Although it can't reach the sky, it can "penetrate the earth". With such attainments in formation, even if it is only the second grade, I think it is not an ordinary person." "Such a person actually died with his sea of consciousness broken..." Mr. Zhuang's eyes also condensed slightly, but he didn't say anything. Old Kui glanced at Mr. Zhuang again, "Mo Hua learned this formation, there won't be any trouble." Mr. Zhuang said indifferently: "What trouble can there be?" "This formation is a secret of the Earth Sect." Mr. Zhuang snorted, "If they can't learn it, can they stop others from learning it?" "Besides, if you don't steal or rob, why don't you eat the fat meat that falls in front of you. If you don't take what God gives, you will suffer the consequences." Mr. Zhuang argued. "What if the Earth Sect is causing trouble?"
"Don't worry, I've already thought of a solution."
Old Kui was a little skeptical, "Is it a proper solution?"
"It's OK as long as it works, who cares if it's proper or not?" Mr. Zhuang looked calm, "Besides, the Earth Sect is in Kunzhou, which is 108,000 miles away from here, and it's not certain whether we can run into it."
Old Kui said indifferently, "Just keep it in mind."
The yard was quiet for a while, and the two of them were speechless.
After a while, Old Kui spoke again:
"They are chasing us."
Mr. Zhuang was not surprised, "Tongxian City is so noisy, if the old man can't predict it, he might as well retire and go back to his hometown to retire."
"What do you think?" Old Kui asked. Mr. Zhuang was lying on a bamboo chair, watching the clouds change, and said calmly:
"It doesn't matter, just do what you have to do."
"Aren't you afraid that they will catch up with me?"
"They can calculate, and I can calculate too. Every time I calculate one more step, they want to catch up with me, it will take at least one or two years."
"What about the strange Taoist, he won't let you go either." said Old Kui.
Mr. Zhuang smiled calmly, "He never intended to let me go."
"He has more tricks than you, and he has been possessed by the devil, and has been named a 'Taoist'. His Taoist heart has cultivated the devil, and his methods are even more unscrupulous." Old Kui said woodenly.
"It's been so many years, the grudges between the master and the sect must be resolved." said Mr. Zhuang.
Old Kui sneered, "How to resolve it, if you meet him, you will die..."
Old Kui wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Mr. Zhuang.
"Don't worry..."
Mr. Zhuang looked at the sky, his eyes were far-reaching, and he said with regret:
"I have planned everything."
His face was neither sad nor happy, his eyes were calm, and he had no life or death.
