Chapter 530 Who Else?
"What should we do?"
The three elders began to communicate with each other through telepathy.
"My Five Elements Sect has already taken the lead, and we have lost two games in a row. It is not appropriate to fight again. Next, it will be the turn of the Formation Sect and the genius of the Shen family to show their skills..."
The elder said it implicitly.
But Master Chu and the elders of the Shen family knew it well.
The Five Elements Sect is out of stock.
Among the Qi Refining disciples, the two just now were already the most capable, but they were defeated by the little formation master without any effort.
Unless the first-grade or second-grade foundation-building disciples are allowed to go.
Otherwise, the remaining crooked melons and jujubes of the Five Elements Sect will only be embarrassing if they go up.
But letting the foundation-building disciples go up is completely bullying the weak and shameless. This kind of thing is even more embarrassing if it is told to others.
"Don't worry, elder. I will do what I promised."
Master Chu looked very relaxed.
"Next, let me, the disciple of Zhenxuan Sect, meet this little formation master."
Zhenxuan Sect is different from Wuxing Sect.
Wuxing Sect has declined, but Zhenxuan Sect is gradually prospering.
There are several formation geniuses in the sect, whose talents are even better than his own in the past.
Master Chu glanced at Mo Hua, who was sitting leisurely in front of the table in the hall, and slowly said:
"Little brother, let's compete in the first-grade formation again."
"First-grade formation?" Mo Hua was puzzled, "Haven't we competed before?"
"This time it's not about who draws better, who draws faster, but who draws harder..."
Master Chu's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, "I will send out a disciple from Zhenxuan Sect, and you will each draw a formation. Whoever's formation is more difficult, requires stronger spiritual consciousness, and contains more formation patterns will win."
Mo Hua nodded, "Who will come?"
In the crowd, a disciple of Zhenxuan Sect wearing a Taoist robe of Wuxing Sect stood out.
Before, they conspired to let a group of array geniuses pretend to be disciples of the Five Elements Sect to compete.
But since Mr. Zhuang pointed it out, and everyone present was discerning, pretending to be like this would only be self-deception and self-inflicted trouble.
This disciple was very handsome and bowed his hands and said:
"I am Chu Xuan, a disciple of the Array Xuan Sect."
Mo Hua also bowed his hands and said: "Mo Hua."
Then he felt that without the suffix, it lacked a bit of momentum, so he said: "...I am the disciple of my master!"
He felt that this statement was already impressive enough.
Chu Xuan thought he was a little childish and shook his head.
Then the two began to draw the array.
Chu Xuan had a plan in mind and wrote as if he had a god.
But Mo Hua was entangled.
Whose drawing was more difficult?
Then what kind of array should he draw?
Is it the first-grade ten-pattern reverse spirit array, the first-grade eleven-pattern thick earth array, or the first-grade twelve-pattern spiritual pivot array?
If the painting is not too difficult, it may not win.
If the painting is too difficult, it is a bit too ostentatious.
It is better to hide the real strength...
Mo Hua secretly looked at Chu Xuan, thinking that it would be enough if he painted a little harder than him. This Chu Xuan was quite polite and his words and deeds were also quite appropriate.
If the painting is a little harder, he can win a little and give him some face.
If the painting is too difficult, it seems that the gap between the two is too big, which is impolite.
Mo Hua is very considerate.
But how do you know what difficulty of formation he can draw?
Mo Hua thought for a while, his eyes lit up.
You can calculate it.
Anyway, we are all drawing our own, and it is not considered cheating to take a few glances.
Mo Hua glanced at Chu Xuan, his consciousness moved slightly, and after a little calculation, he understood it in his heart.
Although he didn't know what formation he drew, according to the trajectory of spiritual power, it was probably more than nine patterns, very close to ten patterns, but still less than ten patterns.
There is a little bit of the flavor of the ultimate formation.
But only a little bit.
Mo Hua draws the ultimate formation every day, so he is very sensitive to the breath of the ultimate formation.
The formation drawn by this disciple named Chu Xuan is very close to the ultimate formation, but it is not yet the ultimate formation.
However, it is already very good.
This is one of the most talented first-grade formation masters that Mo Hua has seen so far.
This kind of formation master should be encouraged well and not be given too much of a blow.
The little Mo Hua felt "cherishing talent" and nodded slightly, and began to draw his own formation.
...
In the hall, the elder looked at Chu Xuan, a little surprised.
"Is this... the dead tree revived in spring formation?"
The head of the Chu clan nodded, "Yes."
"The dead tree revived in spring formation, is it the first-grade ten-pattern ultimate formation that your Zhenxuan Sect has passed down from your ancestors?" The ancestor of the Shen family also frowned.
Sect Leader Chu sighed, "The ancestral art is the ultimate formation, but what Xuan'er drew doesn't count."
He paused for a moment and explained calmly:
"The first-grade ten-pattern formation requires foundation-building consciousness to learn."
"Qi-refining disciples don't have foundation-building consciousness, so they can't learn it at all."
"Therefore, the ancestors of our Zhenxuan Sect have been concentrating on studying how to simplify this ultimate formation so that disciples in the Qi-refining period can also learn it."
"After four generations of sect leaders, they have spent countless efforts. In my generation, we have finally achieved some results."
Steward Chu's tone was calm, but there was uncontrollable pride on his face, and he was obviously very proud.
"Although the effect of this formation is a little weaker now, it is already infinitely close to the ultimate formation."
"More importantly, Qi-refining disciples can really learn it."
"It's just that the consciousness requirement is extremely high, which is a bit higher than the general first-grade nine-pattern formation, and the difficulty is also extremely high..."
Steward Chu stroked his beard and sighed.
Although he spoke modestly, anyone could tell that he was showing off.
But it seems there is nothing we can do.
The ancestor of the Shen family shook his head.
The great elder was jealous, jealous, and a little sad.
The level of Zhenxuanmen's formations is rising day by day.
The Five Elements Sect is getting worse from generation to generation...it doesn't focus on formations, it only builds the sect, its prosperity comes to an end, and it will fall into depression sooner or later.
At the same time, he felt more at ease.
Qi refining monk, a first-level formation that is infinitely close to the ultimate formation, the peak of the first-level nine patterns, the ultimate consciousness of qi refining... In this competition, the chance of winning is extremely high.
The inheritance of the Five Elements Sect may also be preserved.
The three golden elixir ancestors sitting here each have their own thoughts.
Mr. Zhuang's attitude was calm and unruffled.
In the middle of the main hall, two people, Mo Hua, were drawing formations.
After an unknown amount of time, the two of them drew the formation at the same time, sealed it, and handed it over.
The Great Elder first looked at the "Withered Trees Renew with Spring Formation" painted by Chu Xuan, with an expression of emotion and amazement.
This is a "pseudo-defeat".
A first-level formation that is close to a perfect formation.
He is a Qi Refining monk, touching the ladder of the Jue Formation beyond the rank.
The Qi Refining cultivator who drew this formation is naturally extremely talented.
But being able to simplify this formation and use it is the embodiment of a sect's formation heritage.
But these have nothing to do with the current Five Elements Sect...
The great elder sighed, and then opened the formation of Mo Huahua. After just one glance, his hands couldn't help shaking...
Headmaster Chu and the ancestor of the Shen family on the side noticed the strangeness of the elder and looked over. Their eyes shifted from the elder's shocked expression to the formation in his hand. Their hearts were shocked and their brows were beating wildly.
Ten lines!
Defeat?
Can this little kid draw a perfect formation? !
Moreover, it is not a simplified version of Zetsu.
It's a real thing, a good deal, and it contains ten formation patterns!
The expressions of the three people all became solemn.
"This is... the ultimate formation?"
"One grade and ten patterns, there is no doubt that the battle will be defeated."
"What ultimate formation?"
Head Chu frowned, "Our Formation Xuan Sect doesn't have this kind of inheritance, so we can't tell..."
The great elder and the ancestor of the Shen family also looked confused.
The ancestor of the Shen family transmitted his voice through his spiritual consciousness and said in a trembling voice:
"Being able to draw a first-grade ten-mark formation, doesn't that mean that this kid only has Qi refining skills, but he has foundation-building consciousness?"
Head Chu was frightened for a while.
There is a limit to cultivating the Tao.
Qi refining monks cultivate qi spiritual power and condense qi spiritual consciousness. This is the shackles of heaven.
In his entire life, he has never seen that a Qi Refining cultivator can possess the spiritual consciousness of the Foundation Establishment stage.
At most, I just heard about it.
It's still the kind of thing that's almost legendary.
The great elder thought for a moment, then shook his head, "Not necessarily..."
"What do you say?" Head Chu asked.
The Great Elder frowned and thought deeply: "How can it be so easy to refine the state of Qi and build the foundation of spiritual consciousness? Even Mr. Zhuang back then, with his natural talent and spiritual consciousness, never broke through..."
"I guess the reason why this young monk knows the formation of the first grade and ten patterns is because he learned that inheritance just like Mr. Zhuang!"
The ancestor of the Shen family couldn't help but ask: "What inheritance?"
The Great Elder's eyes were solemn, "That gate can integrate all the sources of formations and connect them all. It is the supreme inheritance of innate formations!"
Head Chu and the Shen family ancestors both took a breath of air.
The great elder's heart also sank.
Misreading!
He had previously thought that this small formation master was just used by Mr. Zhuang to lead the battle. Even a first-grade formation master was only averagely strong and might not be valued by Mr. Zhuang.
Now it seems that it was a big mistake!
This little formation master has extremely high attainments in formations and extremely powerful formations!
You can even get the orthodox and supreme innate array inheritance taught by Mr. Zhuang!
It can be seen that this little formation master is extremely favored by Mr. Zhuang.
And this little formation master is just a junior fellow student. Above him, there are a pair of senior fellow apprentices.
He can draw a ten-level formation, but what about his senior brothers and sisters?
Is it possible to draw eleven lines, or even... twelve lines?
The great elder broke into a cold sweat.
No wonder this man named Zhuang is so arrogant!
He does have arrogance.
Mo Hua, who was sitting under the stage, saw them grinding and chirping, so he asked, "How is it?"
The corner of the elder's mouth twitched slightly and he said bitterly:
"Chu Xuan, the formation he drew is the Dead Tree Renewal Formation, the pinnacle of the first nine patterns..."
"Ink painting, the formation drawn, one grade and ten patterns..."
"Ink painting... wins."
One product and ten patterns? !
Chu Xuan, who originally thought he had a chance to win, stood up and looked at Mo Hua in disbelief.
Other disciples also talked about it:
"Isn't there only nine lines in the first rank? Why is there a formation of ten lines in the first rank?"
"Don't you even know this?"
"You are from the Five Elements Sect, right..."
"Stop learning formations..."
"The first grade and the ten patterns are a perfect formation, a super formation that cannot be learned by ordinary people."
"But he just practices qi, so how can he learn the ten-mark formation?"
"how could I know?"
"Are you going to ask?"
A disciple secretly said: "Didn't you see that the Great Elder's face looks like a pig's kidney? He is obviously unhappy. Who dares to ask and touch his brow at this time?"
"You are dead. The Great Elder is a golden elixir. He will definitely hear what you say..."
The disciple turned pale and covered his face with his sleeves, hoping that the great elder wouldn't see him.
…
Chu Xuan's mood fluctuated, his expression changed, he was frustrated and unwilling, finally he sighed, put away the arrogance on his face, and humbly bowed to Mo Hua.
Mo Hua also returned the bow and nodded silently in his heart.
This Chu Xuan has a good character, and he is indeed a promising talent.
There was some noise in the Cangzhen Pavilion. After a while, it was a little quiet, and Mo Hua began to torture his soul again:
"What else is there to compete?"
No one dared to answer.
The disciples in the full room all looked at the three Jindan ancestors sitting on the seat.
The three Jindan ancestors looked gloomy.
They obviously underestimated this little formation master.
The previous arrangement was to use the disciples of the Five Elements Sect to deal with this little formation master and test the waters.
Then Zhenxuan Sect and the Shen family sent genius disciples to deal with the pair of brothers and sisters with dragon and phoenix appearance.
But now, they are about to be beaten to a pulp by this "testing the waters" little formation master...
Whether he is born with a strong spiritual sense or has learned the formation inheritance, this little formation master is a tough guy.
The Shen family ancestor transmitted: "What should we do?"
The elder turned his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"At this point, this competition is no longer about the gains and losses of a sect, but the honor and disgrace of a state. Our entire Dalishan state is full of formation geniuses. If we can't even beat this little formation master, wouldn't it be a laughing stock?"
Sect Master Chu and the Shen family ancestor frowned.
The elder's words were deliberately alarmist in order to drag them into the water.
But they couldn't refute it.
Because this is indeed the fact.
Sect Leader Chu had some concerns, "Even if we win this young formation master, there are still his senior brothers and sisters..."
"Otherwise." The elder's eyes flashed, "I guess Mr. Zhuang might be bluffing..."
"This young cultivator has amazing talent."
"There are no cabbages with such talent in formation masters, how can there be so many."
"Even if his senior brothers and sisters are stronger than him, they are probably not much stronger..."
Steward Chu and the Shen family ancestor both nodded.
That does make sense.
Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. At this point, no matter what, we have to bite the bullet.
"Since he knows the first-grade formation, his foundation must be extremely deep within the scope of the first-grade formation. We have no chance of winning if we take the test again."
"Many of the previous arrangements will not be used."
"We can only take some unconventional tests..."
...
After several people communicated with each other through telepathy, the elder asked Mo Hua:
"Young Master..."
His address was also more respectful.
Being able to draw a first-class formation at the Qi Refining Realm, like Mr. Zhuang, he deserves the title of "Mr."
"Do you know how to solve formations?" asked the elder.
Mo Hua nodded, "I know a little bit."
Sect Master Chu nodded.
Another disciple walked out of the crowd and bowed:
"Junior Chu He, I have average attainments in formations, but I am good at 'solving formations'. I have some experience, but I am not very good at it. I would like to ask this young master for advice."
Solving formations is indeed an unpopular formation art.
Except for the disciples in the family or the sect who have inherited the formation, there are very few formation masters who will spend time studying how to solve formations.
In general, cultivators break formations more than solve them.
Breaking formations is loud, but simple and rough, while solving formations is secretive, but complex and profound.
Although Mo Hua solves formations very smoothly and uses them a lot, he has already mastered them by heart.
But he also remembered what Mr. Zhuang said. At that time, Mr. Zhuang said that solving the formation was a way for formation masters to "enlighten" and "entertain" themselves. It was difficult and unpopular, and few people learned it.
Mo Hua now knew that the "enlightenment" and "entertainment" that Mr. Zhuang said were definitely different from those of ordinary people.
In fact, formation masters who are proficient in solving formations are also rare.
The test questions for solving formations proposed by the elder were also very simple.
Solve the first-grade complex formation.
See who can solve it correctly and quickly.
When Mo Hua saw the complex formation, he was a little bored.
It was indeed too simple.
It was just a complex formation containing three single formations, and only one of them had nine patterns, and the remaining two had seven patterns and eight patterns.
This was not even an appetizer.
Mo Hua looked up.
The Tibetan Formation Pavilion was bustling with people, and there were many disciples.
If the competition continued like this, I didn't know when it would end.
It had to be a little more "quick battle and quick decision".
So when the disciple named Chu He was still solving the first formation, Mo Hua had solved it in no time, and then casually said:
"I've solved it."
The three elders were stunned again, and then they felt numb.
Mo Hua undoubtedly won the formation.
Mo Hua simply said: "You guys can do whatever you want, hurry up, I don't have much time..."
He still wanted to learn the five elements spirit formation as soon as possible, and then concentrate on building the foundation.
This was said in a somewhat arrogant way.
Everyone present was angry.
Soon, one after another, some disciples were not convinced and stood up to compete with Mo Hua in formation.
But no matter what they competed in, they were quickly defeated. In terms of formation alone, there were almost no enemies who could match the first-grade formation master present.
Gradually, everyone present lost their anger, only solemnity.
A trace of panic rose in their hearts.
The formation was well drawn, drawn quickly, and they knew the first-grade formation and were proficient in solving the formation.
It can even be said to be impeccable...
The Dali Mountain State Territory is full of array masters and disciples. It is not true that none of them can defeat this young cultivator...
The Shen family ancestor no longer hides his secrets and orders:
"Shen Wen."
A disciple stood up, his eyes burning, as if he had been suppressed for a long time.
"I'll compete with you!"
The First Elder was shocked, and Head Chu was also shocked.
Even Mr. Zhuang was a little surprised.
The ancestor of the Shen family let out a long sigh.
This is his trump card.
Originally he didn't want to be exposed.
Shen Wen was his great-grandson. He was born with a sharp spiritual consciousness and a careful mind. Later, by chance, he was accepted as a disciple by a great formation master and taught the method of spiritual consciousness calculation.
The Grand Formation Master told him that the formation calculations were confidential and should not be spread to outsiders and should not be leaked easily.
So he has always been tight-lipped.
But when things come to a head, it’s no longer possible not to expose them.
Calculation...
He, a golden elixir cultivator and a second-grade high-level formation master, doesn't know the formation knowledge. This little formation master should...
The ancestor of the Shen family was halfway through his thoughts when he heard Mo Hua calmly say:
"good."
The ancestor of the Shen family had just felt relieved, but now he was feeling anxious again.
No way……
You little kid, can you even do calculations with your divine consciousness?
So the ancestor of the Shen family soon discovered that not only could he draw ink, but he could also do calculations quickly and accurately, with a relaxed look on his face and with ease.
The two of them calculated the spiritual power trajectory of the formation together.
Not long after Shen started counting, the ink painting was already finished.
Shen Cong was defeated quickly and completely, with a look of despair on his face.
Similarly, Mo Hua began to ask again:
"What else?"
The whole place was silent.
When no one spoke, Mo Hua simply changed his question, "Who else?"
All the disciples looked pale.
Even the three golden elixir ancestors were frightened and silent.
They never expected that it was obviously a major drama, but it would end so hastily.
This little formation master, sitting quietly in front of the desk, but one man was in charge, and no one could stop him. He really killed all the talented formation masters in their entire state to a complete defeat...
Just like Mr. Zhuang back then...
No, it's still a little different.
The unbearable past events of the Great Elder came to mind one by one.
Back then, the man named Zhuang was like a fairy sword with all its edge, making it impossible for them to look directly at it.
But this little formation master named Mo has a restrained edge and a friendly temperament, like a piece of natural jade.
Simply a monster!
…
The Zangzhen Pavilion was silent for a long time, and there was a dead silence among the disciples.
The three golden elixir ancestors were also at a loss.
After an unknown amount of time, Mr. Zhuang stood up slowly and said calmly: "The competition is over."
The great elder's heart trembled, but he was speechless.
Mr. Zhuang glanced at him and said without any doubt:
"The winner has been decided. Tomorrow, we will come to the Hidden Formation Pavilion to learn the Five Elements Absolute Formation!"
