Chapter 387 Hidden Formation
This hundred hectares of spiritual fields, connected into a piece, may itself be a formation!
Mo Hua suddenly understood.
Before, he only stuck to the form of the formation, limited to part of the formation pattern, and only saw the formation pattern on the surface, thus being blinded by a leaf and not seeing the whole picture.
Whether it is the soil-cultivating formation or other formations, they are just branches and leaves of details, not the main body of the absolute formation.
This absolute formation itself is the spiritual field.
Mo Hua then became a little confused.
If the spiritual field is a formation, then what are the formation medium, formation pattern, formation hub and formation eye that are based on it?
Mo Hua sat back on the ground again and began to think carefully.
If the spiritual field is a formation, then the formation medium is not the stone ridge, but the land where the spiritual rice is planted.
Land is generally difficult to be used as a formation medium.
Because its texture is soft or wet, and because of dryness and wind, it will flow, it is difficult to have a fixed shape, and it is not easy to carry the formation pattern.
"Why does this formation use the land as the medium?"
"Or is this itself the mystery of the formation?"
Mo Hua thought about it, but had no idea, so he skipped it for the time being and continued to think.
The land is the medium, so the formation pattern of this formation should be the ridges that intersect and divide the spiritual field.
The formation hub is the division layout of the entire spiritual field.
So what is the formation eye?
How to maintain the operation of the entire formation?
There is no special place in the spiritual field that can be used as the formation eye.
Mo Hua looked up and looked at the spiritual field of the Bi Tao formation and the crisscrossing ridges, and was suddenly startled.
This is not a large formation, or a complex formation, but just a single formation.
There is no special gathering formation or gathering formation that provides spiritual power.
The source of spiritual power for a single formation is its own formation pattern.
The natural absorption of spiritual power by the formation pattern provides spiritual power for the operation of the single formation.
In other words, the crisscrossing ridges are both array patterns and array eyes.
So how to supply spiritual power?
Mo Hua frowned, thought for a while, and figured it out.
It is the soil nurturing array!
The function of a single array is relatively simple.
Even if it is a perfect array, the array effect is extremely strong, and it is impossible to cover everything.
So some arrays need to be filled to enhance the effect.
The soil nurturing array is such a filling array, which is used to assist the perfect array and nourish the soil.
But if the soil nurturing array and the perfect array are constructed together, it becomes a complex array containing the perfect array.
This type of array has high spiritual strength and complex array patterns. Once damaged, no one can repair it except the ancestor of the Sun family himself, and no one will repair it.
So the ancestor of the Sun family has a unique Taoist heart and separates the two types of arrays from each other, and they are connected to each other.
The arrays of the soil nurturing array are drawn separately, not connected to the complex array, easy to draw and easy to repair.
Even the half-baked formation masters of the younger generation of the Sun family can cultivate it.
But at the same time, it is related to the absolute formation.
Whenever the spiritual farmer provides spiritual power for the soil-cultivating formation, part of the spiritual power will naturally overflow and be supplied to the large absolute formation.
Therefore, this soil-cultivating formation is not only a filling formation, but also an alternative "eye of the absolute formation".
The spiritual power provided by the soil-cultivating formation is actually very little.
But this absolute formation is a formation of earth nourishment, which does not focus on killing and does not trap strong enemies.
So what is needed is a long-term spiritual power, and a small amount of long-term spiritual power supply is enough.
From another perspective, the purpose of the Sun family ancestor doing this is also to help the spiritual farmer save spiritual stones.
Mo Hua couldn't help but admire him.
The Sun family ancestor's thorough understanding of the formation, his clever use, and his mind and character are all extraordinary.
No wonder that for hundreds of years, the casual cultivators in Qianjia Town have been grateful for his kindness.
Understand the way of heaven and benefit the people.
This may be a true array master...
Mo Hua sighed in his heart.
Seeing Mo Hua in a daze, Ding Miao'er, who was standing by, couldn't help but whispered:
"Brother?"
Mo Hua came back to his senses, smiled and touched Miao'er's head, and said:
"Thank you."
Without Miao'er's simple drawing, he wouldn't have found the clue.
An adult should not lose his childlike heart.
The more innocent a child is, the more natural his eyes are, without color, and it is easier to see the true face.
Miao'er tilted his little head, a little confused:
"Did I help?"
Mo Hua praised: "I helped a lot."
Miao'er immediately became happy, although he didn't know what he helped.
Mo Hua gave him another piece of cake.
Miao'er clenched his hands and ate it with peace of mind.
"My brother said that I have done a great deed, so this time it is not in vain."
Miao'er nodded, thinking silently in her heart.
...
Knowing the essence of the formation, we must try to restore the formation diagram.
Mo Hua told Miao'er not to run around, and walked to the high mountain to take in the spiritual field.
Then he began to follow the layout of the spiritual field, using the thinking of the formation master and the brushwork of the formation pattern to recalculate this spiritual field constructed according to the formation into the original formation.
As he calculated, Mo Hua stopped again.
Something was wrong.
He couldn't figure it out...
Mo Hua frowned.
The structure of many spiritual fields was too square and orderly, but they were not based on the formation.
Therefore, the calculated formation was intermittent and fragmentary.
Mo Hua sighed.
Troubles really come one after another...
He ran down the mountain again and asked Ding Miao'er:
"Miao'er, who in your village has lived the longest and knows the most?"
Miao'er frowned, her eyes suddenly lit up and said:
"Elder!"
Dongshan Village did have an elder, but he was too old to take care of things, and his cultivation was only Qi Refining, not Foundation Building.
Everyone nominated him to be the elder because he was old, experienced, and could convince everyone.
He was called an elder, but in fact he was more like a "village chief".
Xiao Miaoer brought Mo Hua to find the elder.
Mo Hua explained his purpose and said he wanted to ask a few questions.
The elder was grateful when he saw Mo Hua, and said:
"Young Master has been kind to us. If you have any questions, just ask. I will tell you everything."
"You are too polite, elder."
Mo Hua exchanged a few pleasantries and then asked politely:
"Elder, has the layout of this spiritual field been changed over the past few hundred years?"
The elder pondered for a moment before slowly nodding:
"Yes, it has been changed."
"Why was it changed?" Mo Hua asked.
The elder said, "We usually don't change the land that was passed down from our ancestors. The pattern of this spiritual field has been maintained for hundreds of years..."
"But later, in order to organize the fields and make it easier for them to draw the formation, the Sun family reorganized some of the original fields."
"Now many fields have become a well shape, one piece at a time, and they look neat and tidy."
"Has the spiritual field changed after the regularization?" Mo Hua asked.
"No big changes, but the land is getting poorer year by year."
The elder sighed, "I am old and can still feel these things. The children born later in the village don't know anything at all."
"I still remember that when I was young, my grandfather told me that the soil hundreds of years ago was much more fertile than it is now."
After saying that, the elder's eyes were full of longing, "At that time, as long as everyone worked peacefully and steadily, they could all have enough to eat..."
Mo Hua felt complicated, and then his eyes sank slightly, and gradually figured it out.
The function of this formation should be to make the soil fertile and the spiritual field rich.
The layout of the spiritual field itself is the core of the formation.
After the death of the ancestor of the Sun family, the descendants of the Sun family, a bunch of lazy people, regulated the spiritual field and changed the layout of the field in order to make it easier for them to draw formations.
As a result, the core of the formation was affected, and the absolute formation gradually became ineffective.
Later, in order to exploit the spiritual farmers, the descendants of the Sun family drew some inferior formations on the ridges of the fields, which were often broken and repaired.
Because the formations were often broken and repaired, the spiritual power provided by the spiritual farmers to the soil-cultivating formation was intermittent.
As a result, the spiritual power supply of the entire absolute formation was unsustainable.
After decades or even hundreds of years, the absolute formation was completely ineffective.
Mo Hua sighed.
The ancestor of the Sun family once established an ancestral precept:
Any child of the Sun family must not occupy a piece of land in Qianjia Town for life, otherwise the surname will be revoked, the family tree will be destroyed, and they will be expelled from the family!
This ancestral precept is to ensure that the spiritual farmers have a basis for survival.
The second is to restrain the younger generation, to prevent them from occupying the spiritual field and changing the structure of the spiritual field, thus destroying the formation of the formation.
But he should not have thought that the younger generation of the Sun family would be so mediocre.
Because of greed, they did so many stupid things, ruined the blessing of the formation, and also cut off the inheritance of the formation.
The spiritual field changes, and the formation of the formation changes.
In this way, the complete formation diagram cannot be deduced.
Mo Hua frowned, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to him, and he asked again:
"Elder, do you have the spiritual field map from hundreds of years ago?"
The elder hesitated for a moment, nodded, "Yes, there is..."
"Can I see it?"
The elder was a little embarrassed, these things are relatively confidential, and generally not shown to outsiders.
Mo Hua said: "I want to find the formation that the ancestor of the Sun family drew back then."
The elder was shocked when he heard this, and said in a trembling voice:
"The formation of the ancestor of the Sun family...?"
Mo Hua nodded.
The elder said tremblingly: "But the ancestor of the Sun family is a second-grade array master..."
He looked at Mo Hua with his eyes full of disbelief.
This young master, can comprehend the array drawn by a second-grade array master?
Mo Hua said: "The ancestor of the Sun family is a second-grade array master, but the array he left behind is actually a first-grade array master, but it is a little difficult to draw."
The elder didn't understand, but was also quite shocked.
It is amazing to be able to comprehend this kind of array.
He thought for a long time, and said with a firm look: "Okay, I'll give you the map!"
If this young gentleman can really find the formation that the ancestor of the Sun family drew back then, it would be a great thing for their spiritual farmers, and naturally it would be a great favor.
It's just a few acreage maps. They can't survive without enough food, so what's so worth cherishing?
The elder walked into the inner room, opened a box at the bottom of the corner, and then took out a stack of yellowed parchment from the bottom of the box and handed it to Mo Hua.
Mo Hua looked at it and saw that each piece of parchment was painted with spiritual fields like fish scales.
The spiritual fields were naturally distributed, and the ridges were staggered in an orderly manner.
In addition, the paper also recorded the Taoist calendar year.
The household register of spiritual farmers, land allocation, fertility of spiritual fields... and other information were also recorded clearly.
This is indeed confidential information.
No wonder the elder hesitated before.
Mo Hua flipped through it a few more times, compared it with the acreage map, and made a slight deduction in his mind based on the old layout of the spiritual fields. Mo Hua's eyes gradually brightened.
I was not wrong.
The real ultimate formation is hidden in this, in the map with hundreds of years of vicissitudes!
