Chapter 1792: Empty Position Formation

"I am Xuanji, and I would like to ask you the name of the Immortal."

The old monk stopped about ten steps in front of Tang Feng, put his hands together, and bowed to Tang Feng again, asking him with respect in his tone.

The young monk who followed closely behind him also bowed to Tang Feng like him, but his eyes were full of curiosity, secretly looking at Tang Feng.

Obviously, the young monk could not see the level of Tang Feng's cultivation like the old monk, but he could also feel that Tang Feng was much better than him, and he was also confused about Tang Feng's identity.

Xue Rui looked at the two monks, one old and one young, and his eyes were also very surprised.

Under normal circumstances, Tang Feng gave people the feeling of an ordinary person.

When he first met Tang Feng, if it were not for Rong Guocheng's introduction, he would not have believed that the man standing in front of him was the famous Tang Feng.

If they met on the street, they would have just brushed past each other, and Xue Rui would not have thought that he was any different from other passers-by.

However, this old Zen practitioner could tell at a glance that Tang Feng was not an ordinary person, and he was so respectful to him, so he must have known something.

Based on this alone, Xue Rui knew that these two Zen practitioners were not simple characters. At least, they should be considered the same type of people as Tang Feng and Zi Xuan.

Tang Feng said lightly: "Tang Feng."

Just two simple words, the old Zen practitioner who called himself Xuan Ji smiled as if he had found a treasure, nodded, and said: "I didn't expect that in such a situation, there would be such a cultivation level as the immortal. It is a great honor to see him today."

Xue Rui was a little surprised.

Obviously, the name Tang Feng did not have any special meaning to Xuan Ji.

In other words, Xuan Ji should have never heard of Tang Feng's name before.

However, Tang Feng is now well-known in Jin Province. Even if Xuan Ji, as a Zen practitioner, has no contact with the secular world, he should not be unaware of Tang Feng, right?

It seems that Xuan Ji is not a native of Jin Province, but comes from somewhere else.

In the face of Xuan Ji's sigh, Tang Feng did not express anything special. His eyes passed Xuan Ji and fell on the young Zen practitioner.

The young Zen practitioner immediately put his hands together, bowed slightly and said: "I am Jueming, the young monk, and I greet the immortal."

His voice was crisp, with a taste that was still a bit childish, and his expression was quite respectful and polite.

Tang Feng nodded slightly.

This young Zen practitioner was quite cute, with a baby face, a bit of beauty, a pleasant voice, and a polite person. The first impression he gave was quite good.

Xuan Ji bowed towards Tang Feng and said in a very earnest tone: "The immortal said just now that this Nine Cauldron Formation is not suitable for catching ferocious beasts. I hope the immortal can give me some advice."

It really is the Nine Cauldron Formation.

Tang Feng shook his head slowly and said, "As far as I know, this Nine Ding Formation is a large formation for meditation. It requires many people to form the formation. Nine people, eighteen people, and twenty-seven people are all multiples of nine. The largest formation can be formed by eighty-one people. You only have two people, and you want to set up the Nine Ding Formation?"

Xuan Ji's eyes immediately flashed with a look of surprise and joy.

What surprised him was that Tang Feng knew so much about the Nine Ding Formation, but what made him happy was also this point. Since Tang Feng knew it, he could naturally give the answer he wanted.

"What the immortal doesn't know is that in the last days of the law, practice is declining, and there are very few people practicing meditation. In the gate of my temple, let alone nine people who can form the formation, even the third person can't be found."

Xuan Ji's voice already revealed a sense of compassion.

Tang Feng actually thought of this point.

Although the Nine Tripods Formation is formed according to multiples of nine, it is usually formed by nine people, and rarely by more. The large formation that Tang Feng saw that time had eighteen people, which is already very rare.

Now here, it is indeed quite difficult for Xuanji to find nine Zen practitioners to form the formation. He has no choice but to settle for the second best and form the formation with this young Zen practitioner named Jueming.

There is no big change on Tang Feng's face. He just said: "It is not impossible to form the formation with two people, but the other seven positions cannot be vacant. Instead, the formation must be set with empty positions to form the real Nine Tripods Formation. However, this is only a stopgap measure, and it cannot make the Nine Tripods Formation reach one tenth of its power."

Xuan Ji murmured: "Setting the formation with empty positions? This, this has never been mentioned by Master."

Jueming, who was standing behind him, also looked at Tang Feng with a pair of black eyes, full of confusion, waiting for his further explanation.

Tang Feng did not keep the secret and said: "The Nine Cauldrons Formation, as the name suggests, uses people as cauldrons to form a formation in nine different positions. If there are not enough people, a real cauldron must be placed on the vacant position, and a Zen meditation instrument must be placed in the cauldron. The better the quality of the instrument, the greater the effect of the formation. Of course, this is only effective within a certain range. No matter what, it is not as good as a formation of nine people."

"I see, I have learned a lot. Thank you for your guidance, Immortal!"

Xuan Ji bowed to Tang Feng again, and his eyes flashed with joy.

Although this Nine Cauldrons Formation is a large formation in the Zen meditation world, it has been passed down to this day, and many of them have been lost.

Xuan Ji had no choice but to bring Jueming to set up the formation here. After all, there were only two people left, and he could only figure it out by himself. Both of them were in the most important positions, and he was just trying it out.

When the Nine Tripods Formation was set up, it seemed to be in good shape, but Xuan Ji was not very confident.

Unexpectedly, instead of waiting for what he was waiting for, he met Tang Feng by accident, and he pointed out the problem of the formation and gave him a solution, which made him very happy.

Tang Feng then said: "In fact, strictly speaking, the Nine Tripods Formation formed by the Void Position Formation is not a real Nine Tripods Formation, but no matter what, it is many times stronger than what you have now."

Tang Feng had known about the Nine Tripods Void Position method for a long time, but it was useless to him.

Replacing people with a tripod would reduce the strength of the Nine Tripods Formation by 70% or 80%. Some other formations could far exceed the usefulness of the Nine Tripods Formation. In the Northern Star Region, it was of course quite useless.

But it is different on Earth. A Nine Ding Formation with only one-tenth of its effectiveness can be considered a very powerful existence.
