Chapter 466: Sword Formation Selection (Part 1)

Time flies, and it seems like two days have passed.

Li Mu found the flaw in the restriction, and with a sudden wave of his hand, a brilliant sword light cut through the void and directly penetrated the restriction. With a loud "bang", the restriction of the formation suddenly stopped.

As the power of the restriction stagnated, a red door suddenly cracked in the space in front. Li Mu rushed in without hesitation.

Soon, a vast and boundless underground space of extreme yang appeared in front of him. In the flowing river of "magma", various yang-type spiritual herbs grew. These spiritual herbs, nourished by the extreme yang energy, exuded dazzling spiritual light, like a mountain of gold and silver, which made Li Mu dazzled.

Under the innate magical power-identifying all spirits, the top-grade yang spiritual domains of various medicinal spirits of all kinds of plants appeared in Li Mu's eyes one by one.

[Yangyan Jinzhi]

[Grade: Seventh-level spiritual plant]

[Characteristics: Yangyan essence, Jinzhi is unique, full of vitality. 】

【A Yangyan Golden Ganoderma nurtured by the essence of Yangyan, with a medicinal age of 13,000 years, it has formed its own extremely Yang spiritual domain, containing the vitality and vigor of the blazing Yang, and is the top material for refining Yang attribute and body-refining elixirs. 】

In the Yangyan River, the glittering golden ganoderma stood quietly, bathing in the extremely Yang River, with leaves flashing with golden flames, as if a ball of never-extinguished flame was beating.

Each leaf of the Yangyan Golden Ganoderma contains a powerful Yang fire power, as if it can ignite everything around it, and the roots are deeply rooted in the ‘River of Magma’, absorbing the essence of Yangyan, and the whole plant is full of vitality and vitality.

For practitioners, Yangyan Golden Ganoderma is an extremely precious treasure with unique medicinal effects. It can quickly improve the Yang attribute cultivation of practitioners, and at the same time can also enhance their physique and vitality. Therefore, every time Yangyan Golden Ganoderma appears, it will attract countless practitioners to compete and pursue.

In addition to Yangyan Jinzhi, there are more than a dozen seventh-level Yang-type spiritual plants: Yanghuang Spiritual Grass, Chiyang Spiritual Flower, etc., not to mention the other sixth-level and fifth-level Yang-type spiritual plants. For a moment, Li Mu was overwhelmed with joy and dazzled.

Li Mu took a deep breath, restrained his excitement, and began to pick these spiritual plants and obtain them. At the same time, he began to cultivate the spiritual land and prepare to plant a large area of ​​Yang-type spiritual plants here.

After several days of hard work, Li Mu finally cultivated a piece of spiritual plants in this extremely Yang land and planted a large area of ​​spiritual plants, including seventh-level Yanghuang Spiritual Grass and sixth-level Puyang Scale Grass,...

Looking at this vibrant spiritual land, Li Mu's heart was full of a sense of accomplishment. This spiritual land will be an important helper on his future cultivation path. Now six of the seven extreme lands have been gathered, only the extreme fire land is missing, and they have all been opened up with spiritual fields, planted with high-level spiritual plants, and arranged with teleportation arrays and protective arrays. They only need to be taken care of after a period of time, without spending too much energy to take care of them.

When these spiritual plants mature and absorb a large amount of spiritual energy, it will be time for him to break through the fusion realm and even advance to the Mahayana realm.

Li Mu frowned and thought deeply, thinking about the next plan. The Extreme Fire Land is related to the final success or failure. If Feng Jianzhu and his team cannot take down the seal this time, he also needs to prepare for a rainy day and find another fire area to simulate the spiritual plant growth space of the Extreme Fire Realm.

After restoring the restrictions of the Extreme Yang Seal Array, Li Mu returned to Yin Yang Valley for a short rest, and then drove the Earth Yuan Spirit Ship back to the Ancient City.

When Li Mu drove the Earth Yuan Spirit Ship back to the Ancient City, the atmosphere in the city was more tense than before, and he felt a murderous aura in the air, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.

Seeing Li Mu return, Fang Yunjian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Elder Li, you are finally back." Fang Yunjian came forward and asked with concern: "How was the trip? Was it smooth?"

"The trip was quite smooth. Thank you for your concern, Deacon Fang." Li Mu smiled and replied. He looked around and felt the murderous aura. He knew that Xuantian Sword Sect was preparing for the upcoming war.

"What is the situation in the city? How are the elders of Feng Jianzhu preparing? Is there anything important?" Li Mu looked at Fang Yunjian and asked with concern.

"The sword master and the sword elders have been studying the appropriate sword formation for some time." Fang Yunjian looked at Li Mu and answered solemnly, and then said: "But the arrangement of the sword formation has encountered a big problem. It requires a high degree of tacit understanding and coordination to arrange the sword formation, which is not easy to do."

Li Mu nodded in understanding. The higher the level of the cultivator, the purer the sword nature. It is indeed not an easy task to merge multiple combined sword cultivators into a whole and exert the powerful power of the sword formation.

Whether the sword formation can be deployed is related to the success or failure of the attack on the Extreme Fire Realm. The Extreme Fire Realm is extremely important to Li Mu, so he naturally cannot sit idly by.

Li Mu pondered for a moment and said, "I have also heard about the difficulty of the sword formation. The core of the sword formation lies in unity and resonance. Perhaps we can start from these two aspects."

"Oh? How to unify and resonate? What do you think, Elder Li?" Fang Yunjian was moved after hearing Li Mu's words, and his face showed an expectant look.

Li Mu explained: "First, unify the sword intent. Every sword cultivator has his own unique sword intent, but the sword formation needs a unified sword intent to lead. We can select a sword cultivator with the most profound sword intent and who can influence others as the core of the sword formation, and he will unify everyone's sword intent."

"Secondly, resonate the sword energy. The sword energy in the sword formation needs to echo each other to form a powerful force. Through specific training methods and techniques, other elders can cooperate with the resonant sword energy so that their sword energy can be integrated with each other and exert a stronger power."

After hearing this, Fang Yunjian's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly, and said in deep thought: "Elder Li is right! However, it is not easy to achieve these two points."

Li Mu nodded, and then added: "Of course it is difficult, but some external forces can be used to assist in the arrangement of the sword formation. For example, taking some special elixirs, such as Tongxin Dan and Lianyi Dan, these elixirs have the effect of sharing the same heart and soul, which can enhance the tacit understanding between them."

After hearing this, Fang Yunjian was overjoyed: "Elder Li is really well-informed and knows the effects of this special elixir clearly. There will be no problem with the arrangement of the sword formation this time!"

Li Mu smiled slightly and responded modestly: "Deacon Fang is too kind. This matter still needs to be discussed with the Sword Master and the elders to see what their opinions are."

Fang Yunjian nodded repeatedly and left in a hurry.

Li Mu walked towards the Wanbao Pavilion in the ancient city and began to prepare for the matter of refining elixirs.

Of course, Li Mu was not refining special elixirs such as Tongxin Dan and Lianyi Dan for Feng Jianzhu and his team, but was refining Guixu Dan for advancing to the Lianxu realm and condensing the spirit.

Cangyuan Secret Realm obtained - Ningshen Yuanguo, Lingxu Fudao obtained - Jiuxu Lingzhi, two main medicines for refining Guixu Dan, and Li Mu also collected most of the remaining auxiliary elixirs needed, leaving only two main medicines, and a few auxiliary medicines may be found in the ancient city.

Xuantian Sword Sect has other alchemy masters, and Li Mu dare not expose the ability of the alchemy master in front of Feng Jianzhu and his team.

On the other side, Fang Yunjian was very excited after listening to Li Mu's suggestions. This time, Li Mu's proposal was undoubtedly a timely help for the sword formation that was about to be arranged.

Fang Yunjian hurried to the meeting hall where Feng Jianzhu was.

"Master, Yunjian wants to see you!"

In the hall, Feng Jianzhu was discussing the sword formation with several elders. Fang Yunjian bowed respectfully and walked forward.

"Well! What's the matter!" Feng Jianzhu frowned and looked at Fang Yunjian in confusion.

"Elder Li returned safely and brought some good news." Fang Yunjian hurriedly gestured.

Hearing this, Feng Jianzhu's face lightened up a little. He valued Li Mu very much. He immediately stopped blaming Fang Yunjian for interrupting him. He glanced at him and motioned him to speak quickly.

Fang Yunjian walked up to Feng Jianzhu and told him Li Mu's proposal in detail. He described in detail the core of the sword formation proposed by Li Mu, as well as the special elixir assistance and other plans, as well as the possible help these plans could bring to the arrangement of the sword formation.

Feng Jianzhu and several elders listened carefully and nodded in agreement from time to time.

Especially when he heard Li Mu propose to use special elixirs to enhance tacit understanding, Feng Jianzhu's eyes flashed with surprise and joy.

"Wonderful! Elder Li is not only a master in weapon refining, but also has such profound insights into the art of sword formations. Amazing!" Elder Yun Yi exclaimed.

"Indeed, he can even think of a way to use the Tongxin Pill. Elder Li's understanding of the sword formation is beyond my reach!" Elder Gu Yun nodded repeatedly, praising him endlessly.

"Yes, his proposal is very practical. If it can be successfully implemented, our sword formation will surely succeed." Xiao Shuang echoed with joy.

A trace of approval flashed in the eyes of Sword Master Feng, and he valued Li Mu more and more. He always gave people unexpected highlights, such as discovering the Lord of the Blood Demon-Dana, performing the method of escaping from the shell, and digging several extreme places for the Xuantian Sword Sect, the realm of the underworld water, the realm of the extreme yin,..., over the years, no one has been able to make great contributions to the sect in such a short period of time like him.

"Hahaha, Elder Li is indeed talented. His proposal is crucial to the arrangement of the sword formation. Let's act as soon as possible and put his proposal into practice." Feng Jianzhu looked at everyone and nodded with a big laugh.

"Sword Master is wise!" Several elders responded in unison.

Feng Jianzhu turned to Fang Yunjian: "Yunjian, you should immediately invite Li Mu to come. We need to discuss this matter with him in detail."

Fang Yunjian responded and turned away.

Soon, Fang Yunjian brought Li Mu, who looked sullen, to the hall. He had just walked into the Wanbao Pavilion and was about to entrust the shopkeeper to help collect several spiritual medicines. Fang Yunjian came over and took him to the meeting hall.

Li Mu walked into the hall and saluted Feng Jianzhu and several elders.

Feng Jianzhu smiled and nodded, indicating that he didn't need to be polite.

"Elder Li, we have discussed your proposal in detail and unanimously agreed that it is very feasible." Feng Jianzhu looked at Li Mu with a smile and praised him directly.

"Sword Master, you are too kind. I am just trying my best to contribute to the sect." Li Mu responded modestly.

"Okay, let's stop being polite." Sword Master Feng changed the subject, "Now, we need to discuss in detail how to implement your proposal. First of all, regarding the issue of unified sword intent, which sword cultivator do you think is most suitable as the core of the sword formation?"

"I wonder, Sword Master, what kind of sword formation did the other elders choose?" Li Mu looked at Sword Master Feng and asked curiously.

"In this attack on the sealed land, the opponent is very likely to be a demon god, so we have selected several sword formations as alternatives, namely: Tiangang Sword Formation, Dragon Snake Sword Formation, Seven Star Sword Formation, Bagua Sword Formation." Sword Master Feng looked at Li Mu and answered.

“The Dragon Snake Sword Formation is inspired by the dance of dragons and snakes. This sword formation is composed of nine sword cultivators, five of whom simulate dragons and four simulate snakes. The dragon-shaped sword cultivator is mainly defensive, with sword intent like a dragon, steady as a mountain, protecting the center of the sword formation; the snake-shaped sword cultivator is mainly offensive, with sword intent like a snake, agile and swift, wandering around the edge of the sword formation, waiting for an opportunity to move. Once the sword formation is activated, the dragon and snake will combine to form an attack and defense, with infinite power.

“Seven Star Sword Formation: This sword formation takes a star image and is composed of seven sword cultivators, representing the seven stars of Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang, each carrying different sword intent and responsibilities. ”

“Eight Trigrams Sword Formation: It gathers eight sword cultivators, representing the eight trigrams of Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui, and carries out the circulation and coordination of sword intent according to the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint of the eight trigrams. This sword formation can both attack and defend, with many changes and strong power. "

"Tiangang Sword Formation: Six combined sword cultivators and thirty refining sword cultivators are deployed together according to the Tiangang star positions to form a huge sword field. This sword formation is extremely powerful. Once activated, even the demon gods will find it difficult to resist. "

Feng Jian explained the characteristics and power of several alternative sword formations in detail, and then asked: "Which sword formation do you think is suitable for our operation this time? Combined with the several methods you mentioned, how to maximize the power of the sword formation?"

Hearing this, Li Mu frowned and pondered. Among these sword formations, except for the dragon and snake sword formation, he was quite familiar with the remaining three. If he was asked to set it up alone, it would be a piece of cake. However, with multiple people cooperating, the difficulty is really very high.

"There are too many people cooperating with the Tiangang Sword Formation, and their cultivation is also different. This sword formation can be abandoned first. "Li Mu pondered for a moment and suggested.

Hearing this, Master Feng and the elders looked at each other and nodded in unison. With the Tongxin Pill, a method of reaching a tacit understanding, there is a better choice, and the Tiangang Sword Formation can indeed be ruled out.

After careful consideration, Li Mu continued: "For a powerful enemy like the Demon God, we need a sword formation that can both defend and attack. The Seven Star Sword Formation and the Eight Diagrams Sword Formation both meet this requirement. The Dragon Snake Sword Formation is flexible and changeable, and is also suitable for dealing with various situations. "

"However, the performance of these three sword formations has its own characteristics, the number of people required, and the attributes of the sword formations are not the same. Master Sword, Li would like to ask, I wonder if those people who participated in the formation this time, whether the number of people is sufficient, and what kind of skills they practiced? "Li Mu looked at Sword Master Feng and asked with concern.

Given Li Mu's profound and unique insights into the sword formation, Sword Master Feng responded to his question without hesitation and introduced in detail, "This time, the formation will be arranged by me, Sword Master Chen, Yun Yi, Xiao Shuang, and several other sword elders. We will dispatch nine combined sword cultivators to clear the Demon Abyss forces out of this world in one go. The attributes of the skills we practice are respectively..."

Several sword elders at the scene looked sideways, and couldn't help but be a little surprised that Sword Master Feng valued Li Mu. (End of this chapter)
