Chapter 767 Four-Elephant Formation
Xunzi sighed.
If he continued to struggle like this, he suddenly didn't know whether he should care about Mo Hua or the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons...
As soon as this thought came to mind, Xun Ziyou was stunned and immediately shook his head.
After all, Mo Hua is just a child.
The Valley of Ten Thousand Demons is a real place of demons and evil, extremely dangerous.
I don’t know how many dangers are waiting for Mo Hua inside...
Xun Ziyou couldn't figure out the situation in the valley, so he could only tell Mo Hua tirelessly:
"The valley is dangerous, so be careful, keep a low profile, and don't take risks. If you notice any danger, tell me immediately..."
"Uh-huh."
Mo Hua nodded and replied.
He has always been careful and low-key.
Even if the demon cultivator in charge was tricked to death, he still did a good job in dealing with the aftermath, "destroying the corpse and eliminating traces" without leaving any flaws.
However, now that things have happened, the Ten Thousand Demons Valley is actually not as dangerous as Elder Xun thought.
Without the golden elixir, the entire Valley of Ten Thousand Demons would no longer have a "dead end" in the true sense.
The Yuan Magnetic Vision Array is lit up, and any disturbance nearby is under control.
Now that I have the demon flag, I have an even greater advantage!
After the chat ended, Mo Hua continued to do his own thing.
He took out the manager's storage bag, looked through it, and found that most of it belonged to the demon cultivator.
Demon blood bottles, human flesh pills, demon magic swords, demon transformation secrets, etc...
Ink paintings are not interested in evil things of flesh and blood.
It's a secret book of magic, you can read it.
Mo Hua took out some demon cultivating skills and demon transformation secret books, and briefly browsed them. He had a general understanding of demon cultivating and stopped reading.
This kind of thing should only be tasted briefly.
Just know some of the principles of demon cultivation and know yourself and your enemy.
Don't look too deeply, lest you look too far ahead. If you don't pay attention, you will fall into evil ways and become a big devil.
After reading it, Mo Hua put away the secret book of demon skills, and then took out the black demon flag that he had coveted for a long time from the bottom of the storage bag.
The demon flag has a black background with blood lines, and uses bone as a rod. It is cold and a little sticky in the hand, which makes the ink painting feel uncomfortable.
This is a monk who cultivates spiritual power in the right way and has a natural rejection of evil things.
Then, without saying a word, Mo Hua tore down the demon flag.
This demon flag is an evil weapon and needs demon power to activate it.
Mo Hua is a serious monk, and without demonic power in his body, he cannot activate the demonic flag. It is even more impossible to use demon flags to "control" other demon cultivators.
There's nothing we can do about it.
He couldn't personally learn the demon cultivator's techniques in order to use this demon flag to deal with the demon cultivator.
However, this demon flag is also very useful for ink painting.
Mo Hua took out various tools for refining crafts and "dismembered" the demon flag.
His skill in refining weapons is not good, but his skill in dismantling spiritual weapons is not bad.
The main thing is that practice makes perfect.
After the demon flag was "dismembered", it was lying in pieces on the ground.
Mo Hua rummaged around and rummaged around, and finally found a special type of bloody pattern on the inside of the flag.
"Four Elephant Formation Patterns..."
found it!
Moreover, these formation patterns are not like ordinary formation patterns, but more like a special type...
Mo Hua looked at it for a few times and frowned slightly, "...the Four Symbols Formation Pivot?"
A little weird...
He took out a piece of paper and carefully copied down the "formation pivot" formations on the demon flag, and then silently wrote down the several sets of four-elephant demon patterns he had obtained in his memory.
These demon patterns include the four-elephant eagle pattern copied from the original bald sin cultivator "Vulture".
It also includes the four-like wolf pattern on the werewolf whose arm was cut off by his own sword in the dense forest.
Mo Hua put together the four-image formations he had obtained so far, silently compared them, and then combined them with the formation pivot structure in the demon flag to carefully deduce them.
At the same time, he also recalled old Mr.
Time passed little by little.
The logic of the four-image formation became gradually clearer in Mo Hua's eyes.
Finally, after pondering for a long time, Mo Hua suddenly had an idea and suddenly realized it.
He understood what the underlying logic of the four-image formation was...
The so-called formation is the manifestation of the rules of heaven and earth.
The monks use formations to control the power of heaven and earth.
The Five Elements Formation borrows the power of the Five Elements. The Bagua formation borrows the power of Bagua.
The Four Symbol Formation, in essence, is borrowing the power of the "beasts" of heaven and earth...
According to what Mo Hua learned from courses on Taixu Sect and Kyushu Taoism history books, there are many kinds of "beasts" in heaven and earth.
There are mythical beasts from ancient legends;
There are species-specific exotic beasts;
There are spiritual beasts that are born or raised by monks;
There are also ferocious and violent monsters...
…
If the ink painting is as expected, the pure four-image formation should use the orthodox "animal pattern".
Use animal blood as ink to draw "animal patterns" on the body, use your own flesh and blood as the formation medium, use the meridians as the formation center, use the heart veins as the formation eyes, and use the surging blood to provide the driving force for the formation.
Integrate the power of beasts into your own body and use your body to form a formation, thereby controlling the power of all beasts, roaring like the wind, and powerful as a giant.
But this type of formation has an obvious problem...
Mo Hua took a slight breath and looked solemnly.
The structure of this four-image formation is almost exactly the same as the method of the "evil formation"!
The only difference is that this formation is based on the monk's own flesh and blood, and will not commit the sin of killing or be contaminated by evil.
Unlike a real evil formation, it requires killing people to refine blood to make ink, skinning and breaking bones to make matchmakers, and even borrowing the power of evil ghosts.
But it is true that as Mr. Xun said, this four-image formation is really too dangerous.
The fine line between good and evil is too difficult to control.
Borrowing the power of the beast, blending it into his own body, and using his body to form an array, he is almost walking on the edge of the good and evil arrays. If he is not careful, he will make a mistake and fall in the direction of the evil array.
Moreover, Mr. Xun said that beasts are close to demons.
The animal patterns in the Four Elephant Formation can basically easily evolve into demon patterns.
Because the best "animal patterns" are rare.
Divine beasts almost only exist in legends. Alien beasts are extremely rare. Spiritual beasts are not strong enough and are also very expensive.
These types of "animal patterns" are either scarce or too weak, and are almost unable to meet the large-scale application of the four-image formation.
In this case, instead of using beasts, we can only use "demon".
The powerful and versatile Four Elephant Formation Patterns can only be called "demon patterns".
But as long as the demon pattern is used, the four-image formation becomes an "evil formation".
Once a monk paints the four demon patterns on his body and integrates the power of the demon beast into himself, the demon power will contaminate the flesh and blood, assimilate the monk's blood, corrode the monk's consciousness, gradually annihilate the monk's humanity, and step by step become a true monk. "monster".
Mo Hua sighed.
It's no wonder that Daoting didn't popularize the Four Symbols Formation.
Once this kind of formation is promoted, it will harm yourself at least, and harm others at worst.
If there are too many formation masters who learn the Four Symbols Formation, and the Demon Sect comes to seduce them at will, I am afraid that a large number of evil formation masters will be "batch" transformed immediately...
Mo Hua shook his head and muttered in his heart:
"No wonder, no matter how I learned these four-image formations before, I felt that they were almost useless and I couldn't learn them at all..."
If you want to learn the four-image formation, you must learn not only its own formation patterns but also the formation's pivot structure.
The blood circulation system of the flesh and blood array medium and array eye is also particularly important.
In other words, it is not enough to learn the formation patterns.
This set of formation patterns must use "flesh and blood" as the medium, "heart pulse" as the eye, and "blood energy" as the energy source.
When I drew the Four Elephant Formation on the formation paper before, I used the Spirit Gathering Formation as the center of the formation and used spiritual power to power it. Naturally, I couldn't learn it no matter what.
Mo Hua scratched his head.
This is troublesome...
This is almost the method of the evil formation master.
Moreover, the several sets of four-image formations in his hands all use "demon patterns", and they are "evil formations" in the strict sense.
It's not easy to learn at all.
Even if you learn it, you won't be able to use it.
Paint these four demon formations on yourself?
Once the demon power enters the body, one becomes a demon cultivator.
Moreover, he is not a physical practitioner, and his blood is weak. Once the ferocious demonic power enters his body, he is likely to explode and die immediately.
Paint it on someone else?
Isn't that just raising a "demon cultivator"...
Mo Hua shook his head.
This is purely harming people, and it's definitely not okay.
The ink painting is a bit dejected.
“If you can’t apply what you have learned, wouldn’t it mean that you have learned it in vain?”
"I spent a long time thinking about it, and finally figured out the way to the evil formation..."
Mo Hua sighed, feeling a little tired, so he simply lay down on the ground to rest for a while.
Lying down, out of the corner of his eye, Mo Hua saw the black demon flag that was in pieces after being dismembered by him. Suddenly, his heart was excited and he sat up immediately.
"control!"
Mo Hua's thoughts changed rapidly.
This formation cannot be used on oneself or others, but it can be used on demon cultivators.
Just like this demon flag, used to control demons!
Through the Four Symbols Formation Hub, "control" other demon cultivators!
Mo Hua's eyes lit up.
He immediately turned over the four-image formation pivot on the demon flag, considered it carefully, and felt a slight movement in his heart:
"The entire Valley of Ten Thousand Demons uses the Four Symbols Demon Array to control and control the numerous demon cultivators in the valley..."
“It’s still unclear who created this demon formation.”
"But based on past speculation, there is a high probability that it is the 'Mr. Tu' who believes in the Great Wild Evil God and is inextricably linked to the wild mountains."
"If that's true..."
Mo Hua said silently in his heart, "That Mr. Tu must be an extremely skilled formation master, at least a very skilled Four Symbol Evil Formation master."
"He split the four-elephant demon formation into two."
"Part of the demon pattern is painted on the body of the demon cultivator to enhance the demon cultivator's demonic power."
"The other part of the formation hub is painted on the demon flags, and the demon cultivators are controlled through the formation hub's control of the formation pattern."
"This formation system is very complete, and considering the current scale of demon cultivators in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, it is also extremely widely used."
"Furthermore, because the demon flags need to be driven by demon power, which cannot be used by righteous monks, to a certain extent, the loss of 'controlling power' is also prevented."
"The entire four-elephant demon formation system is very strict."
"However, there are also loopholes..."
Mo Hua's eyes brightened slightly, "If you learn the Four Symbols Array Pivot, in a certain sense, you can use the Array Pivot to 'usurp power' and indirectly control the life and death of many demon cultivators in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley!"
but……
Mo Hua frowned slightly.
The array hub is hidden in the demon flag.
This kind of 'usurping power' must first go through the demon flag.
The problem is that he is a righteous monk, and what he cultivates in his body is spiritual power, so he cannot activate the demon flag.
And the demon flag in charge has been "dismembered".
Taking things apart is not difficult for Mo Hua, but it is unrealistic for him to put them back together again.
"Then...refining a 'spiritual flag'?"
Mo Hua thought for a while and shook his head.
In this case, where are the conditions for refining a spiritual weapon?
Moreover, wanting to use the "spiritual flags" of the righteous way to control the "demon patterns" of the evil way is obviously a bit fanciful.
Mo Hua continued to think:
"The essence of the demon flag is the formation pivot."
"The reason why the supervisor uses demon flags is because he doesn't know how to use formations, so he can only use the demon flags to control demon cultivators."
"So, the demon flag is refined for 'formation fools'."
"But I'm not a 'formation fool'..."
Mo Hua's eyes lit up.
With his own formation strength, he could completely abandon the demon flags and control other demon cultivators directly through the Four Elephant Formation Hub.
"But without the demon flag as the matchmaker, what exactly should we do?"
Mo Hua frowned.
"Directly use the skin and flesh of the demon cultivators as the formation medium, draw the formation hub on their bodies, and control the four-elephant demon formation on their bodies?"
"This is somewhat similar to the Spiritual Pivot Formation..."
However, there are obvious differences between the two.
The Spiritual Pivot Array is a spiritual energy formation. Through the weight of the Array Pivot, it achieves hierarchical control and controls the actions of the puppet.
Of course, if it is used to control zombies with evil power, it is an evil formation.
The Four Elephant Formation - or the Four Elephant Demonic Formation, is an evil demon power formation. The formation pattern is controlled through the formation pivot, which essentially controls the flow of demon power.
As for whether this idea would work, Mo Hua thought about it and decided to give it a try.
Regarding formation problems, only by trying it yourself can you test your guesses, check for gaps, and discover more problems.
Mo Hua turned his attention to the spiritual vision array.
He wants to choose a "lucky guy" who is also an "unlucky guy".
In the spiritual vision array, the phantom of the demon cultivator composed of Yuan Magnetic was moving back and forth in the Ten Thousand Demon Prison, constantly shuttling back and forth.
Soon, Mo Hua selected a demon cultivator.
This demon cultivator is not very strong, probably only in the middle stage of foundation building. He is tall and thin, with vertical pupils in his eyes and a long tongue. He looks very sinister.
He is the guard of the prison, and the demon pattern on his body is painted on his back.
Mo Hua approached the demon cultivator through the array hub passage, and then observed it closely for a while. Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he secretly used his spiritual consciousness to draw four elephant array hubs on the demon cultivator's back.
The demon cultivator had an abnormal body temperature and was as cold as a dead person. He was taking a nap and didn't notice it at all.
Finally the formation pivot was drawn.
But the experiment of ink painting failed...
He tried to control the demon pattern on the body of the demon cultivator through the Four Symbols Array, but for some reason, it was of no use at all, and he was even noticed by the demon cultivator.
"What's crawling on my back?!"
The demon cultivator said in horror.
He yelled like this, which made Mo Hua very difficult to deal with.
Mo Hua had no choice but to use his hands to create a small meteorite technique, which destroyed the demon cultivator's head on the spot.
The demon cultivator lost his head and died on the spot.
The reason why he blasted the head instead of the chest was because Mo Hua wanted to leave a relatively complete body so that he could copy down the four-symbol demon pattern array on the demon cultivator and study the reason for his failure.
After copying, Mo Hua tampered with the chain and released a monster.
The demonic beast ate the demonic cultivator's body, became furious, and rushed out of the prison, causing another commotion.
In the Ten Thousand Demons Prison, there was another burst of excitement.
Mo Hua was safe and sound, returning to his own formation.
He began to study, why did he fail?
Why, even though the Four Elephants Formation Pivot was drawn and the Array Pivot was indeed functioning, it failed to successfully control the demon pattern?
Is it because of the ink problem?
If Lingmo doesn't work, should I use pure demon blood?
Or do you want some human blood?
Mo Hua frowned and thought for a moment, feeling that it shouldn't be such a trivial issue.
At least, this is not the fundamental problem.
The formation pivot structure itself should still hide some mysteries that I have overlooked.
Mo Hua once again tossed around with the dismantled demon flag, using the secret calculations and calculations to further deconstruct the formation. Only then did he discover that there were some small demon patterns inside the demon flag, which he had ignored before. Lost.
These demon patterns have different demon beast pictograms.
It seems to represent different...authorities?
Mo Hua was startled for a moment, then suddenly realized.
It is naturally impossible for one demon flag to control all categories of the four demon patterns at the same time.
Different demon cultivators have different types of demon patterns, and the corresponding formation hubs are naturally different.
Eagle pattern, wolf pattern, bear pattern...each type of demon pattern should have a corresponding formation hub.
What Yaofan does is the integration of array hubs.
How many types of array hubs are integrated inside, how many corresponding types of demon patterns can be controlled.
This seems to be a very high-end method of array hub fusion and array design, and the corresponding evil weapon refining should also have special requirements.
I know nothing about these ink paintings.
With his attainments in formations, he has never been exposed to such complex formation craftsmanship.
"This Mr. Tu... is indeed very powerful. I don't know what level of formation master he is..."
Mo Hua said silently in his heart.
At the same time, he also understood that it was no wonder that Mr. Tu was so confident that he was not in the demon flag, doing some "self-destructive" means, and was not afraid of others taking it apart and studying it.
Because the integrated formation hub is very complicated, even if others get these formation hub patterns, it will be of little use.
But that's for others.
Mo Hua's eyes lit up.
As long as you know the principle, everything else will be easy.
The Four-Elephant Array Hub and the Four-Elephant Demon Pattern need to be adapted.
Mr. Tu integrated the array hub into the Demon Banner, and with the help of the Demon Banner, he can call the array hub alone, adapt the Four-Elephant Demon Pattern, and control it.
This is the effect of the evil weapon.
But I can't use the Demon Banner, and I have to draw the array hub on the demon cultivator, which means that I can't use the integrated array hub.
It can only be adapted individually.
One set of array hubs is matched with one set of demon patterns.
For example, the eagle-shaped array hub is matched with the eagle demon array pattern, the wolf-shaped array hub is matched with the wolf demon array pattern, the bear-shaped array hub is matched with the bear demon array pattern, and so on...
This means that a single demon-shaped array hub must be "deconstructed" from the integrated array hub and adapted to the specific demon beast array pattern.
The array hub in the Demon Banner is an integrated structure of division and total.
What I have to do is to do the opposite, from the total to the division, and deconstruct different four-elephant demon-shaped array hubs from the integrated array hub.
As for how to deduce and deconstruct...
Mo Hua thought about it and felt that this was somewhat similar to the Yuan magnetic array pattern.
Through the fixed magnetic pattern and the secondary thunder flow, the indeterminate magnetic pattern can be derived.
Then, through the integrated array pivot and the specific demon pattern, with the help of the deduction of the heavenly secret calculation, the corresponding demon array pivot can be roughly analyzed.
Mo Hua tried it immediately.
His pupils were deep, and the heavenly secrets in his eyes were ups and downs. With the help of the heavenly secret calculation, he deduced and deconstructed the integrated array pivot in the demon flag to match it with the wolf pattern in his hand.
Everything went smoothly.
It took about an hour for Mo Hua to analyze a set of four-image "wolf-shaped" array pivots.
Mo Hua was overjoyed and wanted to try again.
He stared at the spiritual vision array for a while and chose another "unlucky guy".
This unlucky guy was a green wolf demon cultivator.
Because he analyzed the "wolf-shaped" four-image array pivot, he could only try it with a wolf-type demon cultivator.
This Green Wolf demon cultivator was patrolling near the prison.
After changing shifts, he would take a break, eat some meat, and drink some blood.
But I don’t know what kind of meat he ate and what kind of blood he drank.
After eating and drinking, this demon cultivator had a mouth full of blood. He leaned back on a chair and closed his eyes to rest, saliva dripping down, and seemed to be thinking about eating people in his dream.
In the darkness, a blood-colored spiritual ink twisted into a line in the air, and then crawled onto his arm like a thin snake.
On the demon cultivator’s arm, there were wolf patterns, which merged with the flesh and blood.
The spiritual ink blood line climbed up his arm, bringing a hint of coolness.
But the demon cultivator had thick skin and flesh, and was a little sleepy, so he didn’t notice that there was such a blood line, which was unknowingly winding on his arm, condensing into a formation hub, connecting all the demon patterns, eroding them bit by bit, and completely controlling them...
When the formation hub was condensed, the demon patterns were completely controlled.
Mo Hua, who was hiding in the dark, smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth, and his mind moved.
The arm of the Green Wolf demon cultivator suddenly turned bloody, and then a green-red demon power suddenly surged from his arm, flowed through his shoulder, and rushed straight to his forehead.
The surging demon power went against the flow, instantly destroying his sea of consciousness and shattering his mind.
In just a moment, his humanity was completely annihilated, and his demon nature was rampant.
The remaining demon power rushed through his body.
Driven by instinct, the demon cultivator kept screaming with his head in his hands, his eyes bloodshot, and he almost wanted to eat someone.
Several patrolling demon cultivators noticed the abnormality and rushed over.
But as soon as they showed up, they were attacked by the Green Wolf demon cultivator.
A burst of curses sounded, and then there were the sounds of constant screaming and fighting between the demon cultivators, as well as the sound of flesh and blood being bitten...
Until the Green Wolf demon cultivator's demon power was exhausted and he died.
At that time, the rebellious demon power would also destroy the demon pattern on the demon cultivator's arm, and the flesh and blood would be blurred into a piece, and there would be no trace left.
Before the riots subsided, Mo Hua, the "instigator", had already sneaked away.
At the same time, he also verified his own ideas.
Through the Four Symbols Array Hub, it is indeed possible to bypass the demon banner, "usurp power" of the array, and control the four symbols demon patterns on the demon cultivators.
As long as each type of demon cultivator is killed, the four symbols demon pattern on his body is copied.
Then according to the four symbols demon pattern and the integrated array hub in the demon banner, the corresponding demon shape array hub is derived.
In this way, as long as this whole type of demon cultivator is found by me to draw the "array hub" on them, his life and death will be in my control.
And if all types of demon cultivators in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley are derived by me The corresponding Four Symbols Array Hub.
Then almost all demon cultivators with four symbols demon patterns in the entire Ten Thousand Demon Valley, as long as they are drawn with the array by me, their life and death will not be decided by them...
Mo Hua couldn't help but smile slightly.
This smile was a bit innocent, but in the dark, it looked very dangerous.
