Chapter 177: Formation

Hearing the noise outside, Lin's father and mother woke up from their meditation.

When they came outside, they were all happy to see Lin Mu coming back.

Then they looked at Yunmeng and Jingu, and there was confusion on their faces.

Lin Mu smiled and introduced them to his parents: "This is Sister Yunmeng, an old friend of mine. We haven't seen each other for many years. This time we met by chance. When she heard that we were practicing here, she was yearning and followed us."

Lin's father and mother looked at Yunmeng, very satisfied, with a smile on their faces. Mother Lin smiled and said: "Just treat this place as your own home, don't be restrained."

Yunmeng blushed with shame and bowed her head.

Lin Mu blushed, and quickly diverted his parents' attention, pointing at Jin Gu and saying, "This is Jin Gu, the formation master I invited, who is here to set up the mountain protection formation."

Father Lin smiled and said, "You are most welcome, and please help me."

Jin Gu smiled and said, "Don't be polite, senior, I will do my best."

Father Lin's cultivation is only in the middle stage of foundation building, while Jin Gu is already in the late stage of foundation building, but he regards himself as a junior and gives Lin Mu enough face.

Mother Lin greeted warmly, "Don't stand outside, come inside and talk."

Several people went into the house and sat down together. Father and Mother Lin were busy preparing tea and water, and they were very busy.

Lin Mu, Jin Gu, Shitou, and Yunmeng sat down to talk.

After some pleasantries, Lin Mu took a sip of tea and asked Jin Gu with a smile: "I wonder how long it will take to set up this "Golden Stone Array"?"

Jin Gu put down the teacup and said with a smile: "If everything goes well, it can be set up in three days."

Lin Mu's face was delighted, and he said with a smile: "That's great. You must be exhausted after traveling all the way. Take a rest tonight and set up the array tomorrow when you are full of energy."

Jin Gu naturally would not refuse, and nodded in agreement with a smile.

Lin's father went to the Mist Lake to catch a few big fish and Lin's mother made a pot of delicious fish soup, and several people had a full meal.

It was getting dark, and Lin Mu suddenly remembered that now there were two more people, and four wooden houses were not enough.

He hurriedly called Shitou and his father, and the three of them worked hard to build two more wooden houses.

Each wooden house was equipped with wooden tables, wooden chairs, and wooden beds, using local materials, which was quite economical.

Several people said good night to each other and went back to their houses to rest.

There was no conversation all night.

The next morning, Jin Gu began to set up the formation.

Lin Mu took Jin Gu to check the lake island. Jin Gu understood and had a general idea of ​​the formation.

The art of formation is profound and extensive. Surveying the terrain is only the first step.

This step seems ordinary, but it is extremely important.

Many formation masters are busy improving their formation skills and buying high-level formation equipment all day long, but the power of the formation they set up is often unsatisfactory.

Some people study formation painstakingly for decades, but their formation skills are not necessarily very good.

The reason is that most formation masters are only busy studying the operation of formations, the balance of spiritual power, and the changes of the mutual generation and mutual restraint of the five elements. Few people study the terrain.

Jin Gu is completely the opposite. He may not be as good as other third-grade formation masters in studying the operation of formations.

But Jin Gu has a unique understanding of the terrain.

Many spiritual solitude cultivators have studied hard for decades, but they cannot set up a third-grade formation.

Jin Gu's cultivation is only at the foundation-building stage, but he can easily arrange the third-grade formation.

The essence of the formation is actually two words, borrowing momentum!

Borrowing the momentum of heaven and earth for the cultivator's use.

The size of the momentum of heaven and earth is closely related to the blessed land of the cave.

The higher the grade of the blessed land of the cave, the stronger the power of the formation.

On the contrary, the power of the formation is smaller.

The reason why Jin Gu can reach such a level is because he is good at borrowing momentum.

Many formation masters know too little about the momentum of heaven and earth, and the formations they arrange are superficial and cannot exert the true power of the formation at all.

Jin Gu is much better than others in this regard.

After surveying the terrain, Jin Gu had made a decision in his mind and immediately began to busy himself with the formation.

The arrangement of the mountain protection formation is different from the general formation and has higher requirements.

The general formation is mostly arranged with formation symbols, which is simple and easy to complete, but the power is much worse.

The mountain protection formation is quite different, and it mostly uses formation plates and flags.

The use of formation plates and flags can give full play to the power of the formation, but it is troublesome to set up and takes too long, so it is not feasible for real-time confrontation.

Lin Mu followed behind Jin Gu, watching how he set up the formation and supervising him at the same time.

He didn't know much about the formation. If Jin Gu was passive and lazy, and did it hastily, and left with the spirit stones afterwards, he would have no place to cry.

Watching Jin Gu set up the formation with his own eyes, Lin Mu felt more at ease.

Jin Gu began to put the formation plates in different positions, high or low, up or down, in a staggered manner.

The formation flags were also inserted in different directions on the island according to strange rules.

The positions of the formation plates and flags were fixed at the beginning, and there could be no mistakes.

Six hundred and thirty-six formation plates and one hundred and twenty-eight formation flags must be placed in the correct position.

Only in this way can the power of heaven and earth be stimulated, forming a cycle that lasts for a long time.

Otherwise, all previous efforts will be wasted.

This is a hard job. No one else can help, so Jin Gu has to do it himself.

Jin Gu already knows the position of each array plate and flag.

But burying them underground is very particular.

Some array plates need to be buried three feet underground, while others only need to be placed on the surface.

The same is true for the array flags, which are of different heights and are scattered in an orderly manner.

Jin Gu spent three days to place all the array plates and flags in the appropriate positions.

After completing this step, Jin Gu did not relax, but became more serious.

The most important step is coming.

The arrangement of the array eye is extremely important for an array.

The array plates and flags buried before are all to accumulate power for the array eye.

The more array plates and flags take advantage of the power, the greater the power that the array eye can exert.

"Jinshi Array" is a third-grade array, which has its own unique features.

Double array eyes are its characteristics.

The Golden Scale Shuttle is mainly for attack, and the Earth Sky Turntable is mainly for defense. There are rules between attack and defense.

Jin Gu's face was solemn. He urged his spiritual power. All the array plates and flags that he had buried before shook. The array slowly started, and a wave of spiritual power fluctuations came from the array plates and flags.

The fluctuations of each array plate and flag were tiny, and these tiny fluctuations gathered towards the center of the array little by little.

The white mist surged, the fluctuations became more and more violent, and the spiritual power flashed.

Jin Gu controlled each array plate and each array flag, and all the spiritual power fluctuations were constantly gathering towards him.

Six hundred and thirty-six array plates and one hundred and twenty-eight array flags, the spiritual power fluctuations gathered more and more, and where Jin Gu was, the white mist had formed a huge vortex, which was slowly flowing and moving.

Jin Gu's forehead was covered with sweat. This step of starting the array was extremely difficult for him.

After all, he was only in the late stage of foundation building, and his cultivation was not as good as that of the spiritual silence period cultivators. When starting the array, he could not be relaxed and at ease.

The spiritual power fluctuations were like a tide, constantly surging towards where Jin Gu was.

The light flashed and the white mist changed.

Boom!

Jin Gu suddenly threw out two magic weapons, one golden and one gray.

They were the Golden Scale Shuttle and the Earth Sky Turntable.

All the spiritual power fluctuations turned to these two magic weapons. The Golden Scale Shuttle shone brightly, and the dazzling golden light passed through the white fog unimpeded and spread far away. The Earth Sky Turntable was gray and hazy.

Under the wash of the spiritual power fluctuations, the two magic weapons shone brighter and brighter, and bursts of clear sounds continued to come from the two magic weapons.

The formation eye was formed!

This big formation has been set up!

Jin Gu's eyes moved, and he controlled the Golden Scale Shuttle. A dazzling golden light came out of the Golden Scale Shuttle and flew straight into the misty lake.

Boom!

The waves were piled up, and the waves were several feet high. The entire island in the middle of the lake was almost submerged in the waves.

Lin Mu looked at the power of the Golden Scale Shuttle and his face was happy.

Jin Gu said to Lin Mu again: "You try to attack."

Lin Mu heard this and immediately sacrificed the Five Elements Ring. He pinched his hands and a ten-foot-long fireball flew out of the Five Elements Ring and headed straight for Jin Gu.

The fireball was extremely hot, and the surrounding white mist was dried up.

Jin Gu looked at the powerful fireball and smiled indifferently.

Jin Gu suddenly urged his spiritual power, and the Tuxiao turntable cloth continued to grow and rotate. The fireball just hit the Tuxiao turntable and flew out suddenly under the huge rotation force.

The fireball fell into the lake, and white mist rose on the water surface. The fireball gradually extinguished in the vast water.

Lin Mu looked at the extinguished fireball and the surging white mist, and his face was even more joyful.

This "Golden Stone Array" is indeed extraordinary.

Whether it is attack or defense, it is far beyond his strength.

It is no different from seeking death for a spiritual Silence cultivator to come here.

Jin Gu thought about it and withdrew his spiritual power. All the fluctuations of the array plates and flags disappeared, and everything returned to calm.

A white mist rose on the island.

This white mist was created by the "Golden Stone Array", which was completely different from the white mist on the island itself.

Before, standing in the air, you could vaguely see the situation on the island.

Now the "Golden Stone Array" protects the entire island in the middle of the lake. Outsiders can only see a white mist, and nothing else can be seen.

The two magic weapons, the Golden Scale Shuttle and the Earth Sky Turntable, were all buried in the soil and disappeared.

All the array plates and flags were also hidden in the air, and it looked like a piece of white mist, and nothing could be seen anymore.

Jin Gu smiled and said, "It's done!"

Lin's father and mother, Shitou, and Yunmeng all walked out of the house, looking at the misty array, with happy expressions on their faces.

Once this array is completed, the few people on the island will no longer have to worry about safety issues in the future.

Lin Mu smiled, very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, I have been busy for three consecutive days. Thank you for your hard work."

Jin Gu waved his hand and said with a smile: "I promised to help you set up the formation, so I will do my best. How powerful is this formation? Are you satisfied?"

Lin Mu smiled, but did not answer. He took out eighty medium-grade spirit stones from the storage bag, put them in a green cloth bag, and handed them to Jin Gu.

"These eight thousand spirit stones will be your reward." Lin Mu said with a smile.

Jin Gu was not polite. He took the green cloth bag, counted it, and put it in the storage bag.

"I won't be polite with you anymore." Jin Gu said with a smile: "If you need me again in the future, you can come to Linwufang to find me. As long as it is within my ability, I will respond to your request."

Jin Gu handed Lin Mu another jade slip: "This jade slip records the control method of the "Golden Stone Array". You just need to practice it and you will be able to control it freely within three or five days."

Lin Mu took the jade slip with a smile and put it in the storage bag.

Jin Gu smiled and said: "The array has been set up. I will leave now. See you later."

Lin Mu did not try to keep him, and smiled and said: "See you later."

Jin Gu smiled and nodded to the few people, then summoned the flying sword and flew out of the white fog.
