Chapter 228
Mo Hua was completely dumbfounded.
Only by becoming a foundation-building cultivator can one possess foundation-building consciousness, and he must possess foundation-building consciousness to become a foundation-building cultivator...
As the saying goes, those who are good at swimming drown, and those who are good at riding fall.
Originally, his strong consciousness was a good thing, but now it has become an obstacle.
Mo Hua silently counted the ways to enhance it:
First, his current realm is the seventh level of Qi Refining. If his cultivation breaks through to the eighth and ninth levels of Qi Refining, his consciousness will increase.
Secondly, he can practice formations on the Dao stele.
Normally drawing formations can exercise consciousness, and consciousness will increase to a certain extent. This is why the consciousness of formation masters is stronger than that of ordinary cultivators.
But when drawing formations on the Dao stele, the mind is clear, and it seems that there is some enlightenment, and the consciousness is enhanced more obviously.
In addition, Mo Hua can't think of any other way to enhance consciousness.
Mo Hua couldn't help but ask: "Sir, before I build my foundation, is it really possible for me to have the spiritual consciousness of building my foundation?"
"How can I know if I don't try it?"
Mr. Zhuang's eyes flickered slightly, "With your current spiritual consciousness growth rate, it is not impossible."
Mo Hua nodded, but he was still not sure, "Sir, is there any other way to enhance spiritual consciousness?"
Mo Hua thought for a while, his eyes lit up, and said: "For example, the visualization map you mentioned."
"Visualization map..." Mr. Zhuang pondered for a moment, his eyes slightly fixed, "Visualization map is very rare, and it contains dangers. Unless it is a one-time situation, it is best not to touch it, let alone rely on it."
Mo Hua's heart trembled.
Mr. Zhuang added, "There is no other good way. We can only rely on drawing arrays and learn and practice more. But the things we practice can be a little different."
Mr. Zhuang took out a booklet and an old array diagram from his arms, "This is the "Collection of Explanations of Arrays", and there is also a special array."
Mo Hua looked at Mr. Zhuang, "Sir, have you prepared these a long time ago?"
Otherwise, why did he take them out of his arms just after he finished speaking...
Mr. Zhuang looked at Mo Hua helplessly, this child is too smart.
"Everything is prepared, and if it is not prepared, it will be abandoned. Studying and teaching are the same." Mr. Zhuang taught.
Mo Hua nodded in agreement. Hunting monsters is the same. You must be well prepared so that you can advance and retreat in moderation when encountering things.
Mr. Zhuang pointed to the "Collection of Explanations" and said, "This is a book on arrays. It records some complex principles. It is more difficult than the one I gave you before. Take it back and read it carefully. Practice solving arrays when you have nothing to do."
"Drawing arrays can train your spiritual consciousness, and solving arrays can do the same, and the training effect is better."
Mo Hua looked at another array, "What about this array?"
"This array is also for you to train your spiritual consciousness."
Mo Hua looked at the array and asked in confusion, "This array seems to be incomplete?"
Mr. Zhuang nodded and said, "It's enough that it's incomplete. You can't draw a complete one."
"Can't draw it?" Mo Hua looked at it carefully again and was shocked, "Sir, is this a first-grade array? Why are there nine and a half array patterns?"
Isn't it said that a single first-grade array can only contain nine array patterns at most?
Mr. Zhuang's eyes sank slightly, and his expression became more serious:
"Do you remember what I told you? The rank of the Dao Court is determined according to their rules, and the Heavenly Dao has its own anomalies, and does not operate according to human norms."
"Nine patterns are the first rank, ten patterns are the second rank, and the first rank with ten patterns is the anomaly of the Heavenly Dao!"
"This Niling formation contains ten first-rank formation patterns, which is an anomaly of the Heavenly Dao and is not within the inheritance norms of the Dao Court formation."
Mo Hua was shocked. It was the first time he came into contact with such a profound inheritance of the formation.
Mo Hua looked serious and solemn. With awe in his heart, he took a closer look at the formation diagram of the Niling formation.
The diagram was simple, the formation patterns were obscure, and the formation pivot was obscure. Just a glance at it made him feel that there was an indescribable mystery.
As Mr. Zhuang said, it was full of the feeling of anomalies in the evolution of the Heavenly Dao.
Moreover, the formation diagram was missing a corner, which made its origin more profound and heavy.
Mo Hua asked carefully, "This formation diagram is incomplete. Was it damaged during the inheritance?"
"No." Mr. Zhuang said casually, "I just tore it."
"Ah..." Mo Hua's thoughts were confused for a moment.
"The complete reverse spirit formation is too difficult. You can't learn it, so I tore a corner and left nine and a half formation patterns to make it easier for you to learn."
Mo Hua didn't know what to say for a moment.
I didn't know whether to say that Mr. Zhuang was considerate or that Mr. Zhuang always acted unexpectedly.
"Shouldn't a ten-pattern first-grade formation be very precious? Can you tear it up just like that..." Mo Hua asked in a low voice.
"Ordinary cultivators can't learn it, so it's just a waste of time." Mr. Zhuang said, "You study hard. If you learn these nine and a half array patterns, I will give you a complete one."
"Okay, sir!"
Then Mo Hua remembered again that the three words "Ni Ling Array" sounded familiar. After a moment of hesitation, his eyes lit up and he asked:
"Ni Ling Array, is it used to solve the array's core?"
The core of the array is usually the Gathering Spirit Array, and the Ni Ling Array is needed to solve the Gathering Spirit Array.
But Mo Hua had read many array books before, but there was no record of the Niling Array.
It was only said that the Niling Array was a kind of advanced array pattern, which was mostly inherited by aristocratic clans who were good at arrays, and was not easily passed on to others.
Mo Hua now understood that the ten patterns of the first grade were an anomaly in the way of heaven and were inherited by a large clan. No wonder there was no record of it in ordinary array books.
Mr. Zhuang nodded, "So these two things are actually the same thing - solving the array."
"To train the mind by solving the array, one is to learn to solve the array and solve the array pattern, and the other is to learn the Niling Array and solve the array eye. The same goal but different paths."
Mo Hua suddenly realized and sighed in his heart, worthy of being Mr. Zhuang, who thought deeply.
Next, he just needs to practice solving the array and concentrate on honing his mind.
As long as the mind is strong enough, there is hope for foundation building.
"By the way, sir," Mo Hua still had a doubt and asked, "In addition to 'intellectual entertainment' and training of spiritual consciousness, are there other practical uses for breaking the formation?"
Mo Hua adheres to the idea of "learning for practical use" and thinks that what he has learned should be put to use, otherwise it would be a waste of time.
Mr. Zhuang looked a little playful, "Naturally, breaking the formation is used to break the formation."
"You can break the formation with normal force or spiritual power, right? What are the advantages of breaking the formation?"
"Breaking the formation is too rough and makes too much noise."
Mr. Zhuang was a little disdainful and continued, "Breaking the formation is much more clever, and the means are also very concealed, and no one can know. You can break other people's formations, and others may not be able to detect it."
Mo Hua nodded and understood a little.
"There is one more thing," Mr. Zhuang added, "unraveling the formation can not only break the formation, but also break people's Tao heart."
"Tao heart?"
"The formation that other formation masters are proud of has been broken by you one by one. As a formation master, his Tao heart will be shaken, and those with weak Tao heart may even collapse directly."
Mr. Zhuang smiled, and a hint of mischief appeared on his handsome face.
Mo Hua looked strange, "Sir, did you often do this kind of thing before..."
Mr. Zhuang used his slender fingers to rub Mo Hua's hair, "You are asking around again."
Mo Hua chuckled.
Mr. Zhuang waved his hand, "Go and study hard. A good formation master must not only be able to draw formations, but also be proficient in unraveling formations."
"Okay, sir!"
Mo Hua carefully put "Collected Theory of Unraveling the Formation" and the incomplete Niling Formation into the storage bag, and then bowed to Mr. Zhuang and left.
Mr. Zhuang watched Mo Hua go away, couldn't help but shook his head, sighed: "This disciple is not easy to teach..."
Old Kui appeared beside him, and said calmly: "You chose a good technique."
Mr. Zhuang heard the sarcasm in his tone, but didn't care. Instead, he said:
"If he is determined to be a formation master, the consciousness is the most important. Refining the consciousness is not only convenient for learning the formation, but also easy to break through the realm. This is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone."
"Then have you seen a cultivator who has a foundation-building consciousness before building a foundation?"
"There are records in the classics, but I haven't seen it..."
Mr. Zhuang's eyes passed through the corridor, across the courtyard, and fell on Mo Hua, who was talking to the Bai brothers and sisters under the big locust tree with a little expectation.
"So I also want to see it with my own eyes."
Old Kui's eyes narrowed slightly, "This is not an easy thing."
Mr. Zhuang said: "Of course I know, but I underestimated this technique before. This Tianyan Jue, as long as you can break through, it is worth it no matter how much it costs."
Old Kui was slightly surprised when he heard it.
Mr. Zhuang looked at the ink painting from afar with a faraway gaze, his eyes gradually deepening:
"Heavenly evolution, Heavenly evolution... Heavenly evolution..."
