Chapter 137 Taoist Battle Formation (1/2)
"There is great knowledge in refining puppets. There are two methods of refining puppets. One is an ordinary puppet, which can cast spells and has average combat effectiveness.
There is another kind that needs to be integrated into the magical seeds that you have cultivated yourself. The puppets that are integrated into the magical seeds will have more than a little bit of powerful combat power.
A puppet that is fused with supernatural power seeds is naturally close to the rules. Against ordinary puppets, even if they are made of the same material, there is no problem if one is equal to ten.
It's just that cultivating magical seeds is not easy. It often takes decades of hard work to cultivate a magical seed. "Cheng Jingming introduced with longing.
"In the hands of your master, there is a set of twenty-eight constellations copper spirit puppets that are integrated with magical seeds. Each one taken out individually has the combat power of the peak of the golden elixir. After forming the twenty-eight constellations array, it is also difficult to fight against Nascent Soul monks. If you don't fall behind, you can even win the battle." Cheng Jingming was filled with envy when he mentioned the puppet in his master's hands.
"Master, you just said that it would take decades for a person with good qualifications to develop a magical power. How many years would it take to integrate into the Twenty-Eight Constellations Bronze Essence Puppet? Although the golden elixir stage can last for thousands of years, it's probably not enough, right? How did Master master it?" Feng Tianzong asked in confusion.
"Idiot, of course it is passed down. If one generation can't train it, can't it be passed down from generation to generation? When your master is promoted to Yuanying in the future, then this set of twenty-eight constellations copper spirit puppets will be passed on to the next generation of disciples. Already?
In my generation, your junior uncle is the only one who has been promoted to the Golden Core Stage. From now on, this set of Twenty-Eight Constellations Bronze Essence Puppet will be passed into the hands of your junior uncle.
I asked you to apprentice with your junior uncle before because of this consideration. With your junior junior uncle's talent, you will be able to be promoted to Nascent Soul in a hundred years. By then, this set of Twenty-Eight Constellations Bronze Essence Puppet will be Wouldn’t it be passed down to you?
Do you regret it now? "Cheng Jingming said gloatingly.
Feng Tianzong was also stunned. It turned out that it could still be like this and be passed down from generation to generation. How strong is the foundation of the Puppet Sect?
My own ancestor has a set of Twenty-Eight Constellations Bronze Spirit Puppet inheritance, but what about the other ancestors? I'm sure I won't be empty-handed. It has been passed down from generation to generation of ancestors.
There is no shelf life for puppets. Generations of disciples have continued to use mana to nourish and refine them. The longer they exist, the more powerful they become. I'm afraid no one knows how many powerful puppets there are.
"What's there to regret? Master has been so kind to me, so how can I accept someone else as my master just for some benefit?
Aren't they just puppets? I will just refine it myself from now on. Sooner or later, there must be twenty-eight constellation puppets, and they must all be powerful puppets that are infused with magical seeds. Feng Tianzong said confidently.
"I really don't know how high the sky is, but if you can refine a set of Twelve Yuan Chen Bronze Essence Puppet in the golden elixir stage, I will accept you as my disciple for the rest of my life.
In the future, our lineage can also have a complete puppet to pass on. "Cheng Jingming said with emotion.
"By the way, Master, the Bronze Spirit Puppet has a large formation, but do the Stone Spirit Puppet and Bone Spirit Puppet have a battle formation?
Can I use Bone Spirit Puppet and Stone Spirit Puppet to form the Twelve Yuan Chen Battle Formation? "Feng Tianzong asked.
“Theoretically it should be possible, but whether it’s Bone Spirit Puppet or Stone Spirit Puppet, they lack the spells needed to form a battle formation.
Many advanced spells, bone spirit puppets and stone spirit puppets cannot be integrated because of the poor materials. Unless you refine them into life puppets, constantly use mana to refine them, and then integrate them into the corresponding spell lines. Only then is it possible.
But if you want to refine and upgrade all twelve puppets, the time cost will be too great. The gain outweighs the loss. It is better to refine the copper essence puppets.
Although the material for the copper spirit puppet is a bit difficult to find, if you are willing to look for it, it is still possible to find it after a hundred or two hundred years. "Cheng Jingming explained.
Feng Tianzong thought. The material for copper spirit puppets was so scarce. If he wanted to collect all the twenty-eight constellations of copper spirit puppets, he would need at least a mine to refine them.
Going to the dangerous world of immortality to look for resources while sleeping rough is dangerous and boring. Whether you can find it in the end depends on luck, it's too elusive.
The Bone Spirit Puppet is much simpler. There are many monsters in the Qi Refining Stage. Although the monsters in the Foundation Establishment Stage are a little scarce, they are not absent.
From the perspective of the difficulty of obtaining materials, monster skeletons are the easiest to obtain, and they also provide the basis for large-scale refining of puppets.
As for spending time warming up and cultivating, it is an unsolvable problem for ordinary people, but for Feng Tianzong, that is not a problem at all.
The most important thing is stability. The acquisition of materials is stable, and the strength of the refined puppets is also stable.
So for Feng Tianzong, the Bone Spirit Puppet is the best puppet. If the material is not enough, just keep warming, nourishing and refining it. Over time, it will always reach the standard.
"Low-level puppets such as bone spirit puppets are generally used by sects in conjunction with Taoist battle formations. Hundreds or thousands of bone spirit puppets form battle formations in the same way as Taoist soldiers, and gather mana together. It's just that the number required is too huge, at least 800 is required.
The stone spirit puppet theory can also be used in this way, but because the materials are scarce, it will not be used in this way. Thirty-six Tiangang formations can be formed. "Cheng Jingming introduced to Feng Tianzong.
"Master, I want to learn the Taoist battle formations, the Thirty-Six Tiangang Formations, the Twelve Yuanchen Formations, and the Twenty-Eight Constellations Formation.
Also, if you want to refine a puppet that fits the big formation, what magic powers are needed? I also need to learn these magic powers. Feng Tianzong said firmly.
"It's nothing to learn, you can't bite off more than you can chew. No matter how ambitious you are, what achievements will you make in the future? I can teach you the Taoist battle formation, and I can also teach you the Thirty-Six Tiangang Formation. These two are relatively simple. A little, as long as you save it for decades, you should be able to use it.
Forget about you, Master, I still want to learn the Twelve Yuan Chen Formation and the Twenty-Eight Constellation Formation, so I need to get to the Golden Elixir Stage. If you are not strong enough, there is no benefit in learning.
As for the Taoist and magical powers required by the Twelve Yuan Chen Formation, to be honest, I don’t know yet as a teacher. Your master is currently in seclusion. After your master comes out of seclusion, you can seek advice from me as your master. But when you need it, it will be decades later.
Those are Taoist and magical powers that can only be used in the golden elixir stage. If they are given to you now, you won’t be able to practice them. "Cheng Jingming explained.
Feng Tianzong was quite disappointed. There were too many things to learn. Unfortunately, he was only in the foundation-building stage and could not yet learn the things he wanted to learn in the golden elixir stage.
After I advance to the Golden Core stage, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the sect for a long time. For a genius like Junior Master Uncle, it would take decades to advance to the Golden Core stage.
Feng Tianzong pondered in his mind that after being promoted to the Golden Core stage, he would not be able to return to the sect for at least thirty years. Being promoted too quickly is also a worry.
Without a reasonable reason, it would be too easy to arouse suspicion. If any old monster thinks he has some treasure, wouldn't it be over?
Fortunately, the harvest after coming back this time is quite good. The most important thing is that we got the sect's Liantian Yishu. With this Yishu, we can also do it at a glance in the future.
Think about what Master said just now: "I already know your purpose of coming." How impressive.
Cheng Jingming also entered the Taoist battle formation methods and the thirty-six Tiangang formation cultivation methods into jade slips and gave them to Feng Tianzong.
Cheng Jingming originally planned to teach Feng Tianzong slowly, but Feng Tianzong was anxious and said that the battle for the dragon was about to begin in the mortal world and he didn't want to miss it, so Cheng Jingming could only record the jade slips for him and let him take it back to study.
"This kind of Taoism is the secret magic of our Puppet Sect and must not be spread. Otherwise, you will be the sinner of the sect." Cheng Jingming said solemnly.
"Master, don't worry, these jade slips will be destroyed by disciples once they learn it, and no trace of them will be left out." Feng Tianzong said equally solemnly.
Master Cheng Jingming really didn't tell him that if he wanted so many sect secrets, he would give them to him. He is really just like his biological father.
Even if you ask for your biological father, he may not be given to you.
The first thing Feng Tianzong looked at was the Taoist battle formation. Most other sects have the tradition of cultivating Taoist soldiers. Taoist soldiers can provide their masters with a steady stream of mana, and at the same time, they can also play a great role in low-end battles.
It is very useful for increasing combat power during the foundation building period. It's just that most sects don't invest too many resources in cultivating Taoist soldiers, so most of the Taoist soldiers are outer disciples who have no hope of building a foundation.
Taoist soldiers in the foundation-building stage are already very rare. The Puppet Sect has not cultivated Taoist soldiers. For the people of the Puppet Sect, with the resources, how good would it be to refine two more puppets?
Puppet is loyal and long-lived, which is much more cost-effective than cultivating Taoist soldiers. It's just that the combat effectiveness of low-level puppets is not good, but after forming a Taoist battle formation, under the command and control of the master, it is not much worse.
Even ironwood puppets can use this set of Taoist battle formations. As long as the number is large enough, it is also a considerable fighting force.
Feng Tianzong was ready to give it a try when he went back. Refining a batch of ironwood puppets might not be useful against the foundation-building monks, but among the ordinary people, there were more Qi-refining monks. They formed a battle formation with ironwood puppets, which was enough to suppress them. A Qi refining monk.
Now Feng Tianzong's rule is in the remote areas of northern Xinjiang. In the future, if he occupies more prosperous places, there will inevitably be monks living in the cities.
Some of these monks committed crimes and oppressed good people. It was impossible for Feng Tianzong to deal with these monks himself. When the time came, he could use mortals to command the ironwood puppets to form a battle formation to suppress the Qi Refining monks.
The Thirty-Six Tiangang Formation is also very interesting. Different puppets are integrated into different Taoist methods. This battle formation is based on a complete set of curse spells. The name is grand and grand, Thirty-Six Tiangang.
In fact, they are all based on weakening curse spells, combined with battle formation suppression. As long as the opponent is caught in the battle formation, defense, strength, speed, and spirit are reduced, making people drowsy. Then use the combined mana of the entire thirty-six puppets to suppress the enemy's mana, making it difficult for the opponent to use mana.
Now Feng Tianzong has enough monster bones in his hands. He can refine a batch when he goes back. Then he can transform the existing bone spirit puppets and form a Thirty-Six Tiangang Battle Formation, which will be another set of golden elixirs. level of combat effectiveness.
Finally, there was the matter of counting the sky. Feng Tianzong took a look at it and found that it was indeed mysterious and difficult to understand. Unlike the Taoist Battle Formation and the Thirty-Six Tiangang, which he could still understand clearly, the Yishu Liantian was like reading a heavenly book and he couldn't understand it at all.
"Isn't it said that it is easy to learn but hard to master? How can it be easy to learn?" Feng Tianzong asked his soul.
He felt that even if he was exposed to such mysterious and difficult things for ten years, he would not be able to get into it.
Fortunately, he still has natural talents. He wants to see how many years it will take him to get started in Liantian Yishu.
[Liantian Yishu: Not yet started (expendable time increased - thirty years)]
Sure enough, his guess was right. In ten years he would not be able to get started. It would take thirty years of dedicated study before he could get started.
Another look at the remaining taxes.
Taxes: Thirty-eight years.
The last time I was promoted, I still had a balance of thirty-eight years. Feng Tianzong did not hesitate and directly promoted Liantian Yishu.
[Thirty years of tax consumption, countless promotions, but you haven’t started yet—getting started]
Feng Tianzong worked hard to study Liantian Yishu, and was stretched to thirty years in an instant. After thirty years of hard training, he finally got started with the study of Yi Shu.
Although he is just getting started, he is already very powerful. As for what happened in the past, he can know it clearly with just a few fingers, and he knows everything about it.
This is just an introduction. No wonder the master said that even the ancestors of the sect dare not claim to be proficient in this art.
It's just that at this entry-level level, it can only be considered ordinary. As long as the opponent has some cultivation level, the interference will increase. The higher the opponent's cultivation level, the stronger the interference. If the opponent's cultivation level is higher than Feng Tianzong, then it is completely useless. There is no way to forget it.
It is also easy to get backlash. Of course, this is just because he has just started. In the future, as he becomes more proficient, these disadvantages will gradually reduce.
Similarly, the entry-level Liantian Yishu can also calculate what is happening now. If you are a mortal, you can basically understand it.
For people with advanced cultivation, it is not so accurate, and the error will be very large.
As for calculating the future, the entry-level Liantian Yishu is basically inaccurate. Even ordinary people are the same.
But Feng Tianzong is already very excited. In a few years, he will be able to become a fortune teller. Whenever something happens, he can calculate it with his fingers and calculate the good or bad luck.
As long as his cultivation is advanced, he will basically be able to escape danger in the future. Even in the future, whenever something bad happens to him, he will be able to sense it on a whim.
The sky is easy to count, it is so mysterious and mysterious.
Feng Tianzong did not stay in the sect for long and said goodbye to his master and several senior brothers and sisters. After this separation, we will not see them again for at least thirty years. Even if they go to the mortal world to see him. Feng Tianzong would not meet them either. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be exposed?
Thinking about it now, it's a good thing that the senior sister didn't agree to him at the beginning, otherwise it would still be a big trouble.
