Chapter 137 Li Fan Begins His Apprenticeship [Please Be the First to Order! ]

Li Fan had a hunch that if an ordinary cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining forced himself to read the contents of the "Mountain and River Hundred Veins Formation Diagram".

Then the surging information flow in it would undoubtedly blow up his brain.

Even if Li Fan's mental strength was higher than that of ordinary cultivators, his end might not be much better.

He immediately withdrew his spiritual consciousness and solemnly put it into the storage ring.

"How are you learning the formation?" Gong Boyu asked casually.

Li Fan pondered for a moment: "I have studied for two years and have gained a little. But I don't know to what extent I have mastered it."

Gong Boyu said: "This is easy!"

Then he took out a small black ball and threw it over: "You can separate a wisp of spiritual consciousness and enter it."

Li Fan looked at the black ball, which seemed to have starlight flowing on the surface, and then did as he was told.

In an instant, Li Fan seemed to be in a dark tunnel.

Thoughts were like riding a roller coaster, gliding rapidly in the tunnel.

One after another, the questions and answers about the formation came head-on, and Li Fan could not help but respond in an instant.

If he knew and the answer was correct, the speed of his thoughts would be accelerated again.

If he did not know, or the answer was wrong, the speed of his thoughts would be reduced.

This feeling of a hundredfold increase in thinking speed was somewhat similar to the awakening spirit in the Tianxuan mirror.

But it was much more effective.

After a while, Li Fan felt that his thoughts were getting slower and slower, and finally stopped completely.

Exiled from the black ball.

Gong Boyu took back the black ball, looked at the barely visible light on it, and looked at Li Fan with unbelievable eyes: "Have you really studied for two years?"

Li Fan's face did not change: "Indeed."

After a silence, Gong Boyu kindly comforted: "The formation is really too dependent on talent. It is normal for you to progress slowly. Don't mind."

Li Fan agreed and nodded slightly.

Who knew that Gong Boyu's words angered another cultivator present.

"What a bullshit truth! The way of formation is just about diligence! You, Gong Boyu, have a high talent for formation, but do you dare to say that your understanding of formation is better than mine?"

Li Fan looked over and saw that the man who spoke had white hair, but his eyes were full of brilliance, making people dare not look directly at him.

"Brother Zhiliang, don't be so irritable. I was just comforting the juniors and said it casually. Why do you have to be so serious? On Wanxian Island, who doesn't know that you, Zhang Zhiliang, are the best in formation?" Gong Boyu was a little helpless.

"The way of formation is to be diligent and true, how can you say it nonsense!" Zhang Zhiliang snorted coldly, obviously not happy with Gong Boyu's words.

He turned around and looked at Li Fan seriously: "Boy, you must not be discouraged. You know, when I just learned the formation for two years, the test results of the spirit ball were not as good as yours!"

"For five hundred years, I have spent almost all my time studying the formation, bit by bit, and slowly improved. Only then did I have today's understanding of the formation. Diligence can make up for lack of talent, especially in the formation."

"Although the formations in the world are said to have infinite variations, the commonly used fixed patterns are limited in number and can be mastered by human power."

"If you study carefully, never slack off, and never give up, who knows if you will become a master of formations in hundreds of years?"

Li Fan heard this and looked solemn: "Thank you for your guidance, I will definitely keep it in mind."

After Zhang Zhiliang finished speaking, he gradually calmed down.

He assessed Li Fan and then said slowly: "Although hard work can make up for lack of talent, it is also very important for the master to lead the way."

"When I first learned the formation by myself, I knew how difficult it was to explore."

Zhang Zhiliang pondered for a moment: "I see that you are calm and steady, not arrogant or impatient. Quite similar to me back then."

"I have also benefited a lot from He Zhenghao's "Mountain and River Hundred Veins Formation Map". You brought the fragments here, and I am also indebted to you."

"..."

He asked slowly: "I wonder if you are willing to follow me and learn the formation?"

Gong Boyu heard this and quickly reminded: "Why don't you thank Master Zhang!"

Li Fan was also very surprised and bowed quickly.

Zhang Zhiliang accepted Li Fan's greeting calmly, and then said: "Let me be frank. I don't want to accept disciples. So there will be no master-disciple relationship between us."

"I will naturally not teach you the unique formation I created."

"I am only responsible for leading you to truly enter this formation. I will not keep some insights to myself."

"I am busy with various trivial matters, so I can only take time to guide you."

"I am meticulous in my work on weekdays, and I am also very strict with others. If I find that you are lazy or slack, I will ruthlessly expel you."

...

Zhang Zhiliang stated a series of conditions that sounded harsh but were actually reasonable.

Finally, he asked: "In this case, are you willing to follow me and learn the formation?"

Li Fan put away the surprise in his heart and calmed down.

He bowed to Zhang Zhiliang again and said slowly: "Junior is willing."

Zhang Zhiliang looked at Li Fan's performance and touched his beard with satisfaction.

"Okay, work hard anytime."

"Learn the formation from today!"

Zhang Zhiliang grabbed Li Fan and disappeared in the council room.

Gong Boyu and other formation masters looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

...

Li Fan followed Zhang Zhiliang and arrived in the starry sky in an instant.

The surroundings were pitch black, with countless twinkling stars in the background.

"Do you know what a formation is?" Zhang Zhiliang asked.

Li Fan was about to answer, but after thinking for a while, he finally shook his head: "I don't know."

"The formation is a standardized law."

Zhang Zhiliang said word by word.

"Burning, freezing, lightning..."

"These are all natural phenomena that exist in the world, and what supports their occurrence and operation are the various laws between heaven and earth."

"Laws are eternal. Well, except for some special circumstances..."

"Cultivators often have to observe and comprehend the laws of heaven and earth."

"And the formation is the standardized, mechanized, and standardized application process of the law."

...

As Zhang Zhiliang was telling the story, the door to the formation slowly opened to Li Fan.

Li Fan was deeply immersed in it, not realizing the passage of time.

In a blink of an eye, he arrived at the anchoring 20 years.

Cong Yunhai.

Zhang Haobo stood in mid-air and looked up.

"Is your dying blow coming soon?"

In his memory, in the last life, a terrible storm will happen soon.

Its might is so strong that it makes the world change color.

More than 200 islands including Dayu Island were razed to the ground, and countless mortals returned to the sea.

Compared with this terrible storm, the storm he is currently controlling is so weak and pitiful.

But...

He, Zhang Haobo, is a reborn person, a child of destiny, and a favored person of Congyunhai.

He is about to swallow an elephant, and then...

Mufeng!

Ling Wanxian!

Thanks to the book friends for the rewards and monthly tickets, the list will be sorted out tomorrow. I have been writing all day today, and I am dumbfounded. Tears.
