Asking about longevity

"Yan Jiaoxi, what kind of formation is the Lingshu Formation?"

Mo Hua couldn't help but ask.

Yan Jiaoxi was about to answer, but suddenly paused, "How do you know about the Lingshu Formation?"

Yan Jiaoxi was a little strange.

The Lingshu Formation Diagram should be the secret skill of Xiaolingyin Sect. How did Mo Hua learn about it?

"Mo Guanshi told me!"

Mo Hua changed hands and sold Guanshi Mo.

Yan Jiaoxi's mouth twitched.

I made a mental note to Manager Mo.

This fat junior brother was so lax in his talk, and he even said such important things to Mo Hua.

"Yan Jiaoxi, can you tell me?"

Mo Hua looked expectant, his big eyes flickering.

Yan Jiaoxi didn't want to say it, but looking into Mo Hua's eyes, he couldn't refuse. He hesitated for a moment and sighed deeply.

The Xiaolingyin Sect has been destroyed, and these things are meaningless.

"Okay." Yan Jiaoxi nodded, looked at the ink painting, and talked about the origin of the Lingshu Formation:

"I was studying in the sect and was highly regarded by my master. I also heard some secrets from the past in the few words I chatted with..."

"The inheritance of the Xiaolingyin Sect comes from the Great Lingyin Sect in the past."

"Most of the inheritance within the sect are the legacy of our predecessors. They are not complete. Those with only scales and claws are not considered rare..."

"Only this Lingshu Formation is extremely mysterious and difficult. It is the real one and can be used as a formation to suppress the sect."

"But this Lingshu Formation is too mysterious and difficult. For hundreds of years, no monk from Xiaolingyin Sect can understand this formation."

Yan Jiaoxi sighed, "The first-grade formation only has nine lines, but this Lingshu Formation actually has twelve lines..."

"The consciousness of the twelve patterns cannot be reached without foundation building, and it cannot be obtained without a second-grade formation master!"

The ink painting on the eighth level of Qi refining and the twelve lines of spiritual consciousness remained silent.

Mo Hua thought for a while and asked again:

"Has Xiaolingyin Sect ever produced a second-grade formation master?"

"Yes." Yan Jiaoxi nodded, "Two hundred years ago, there was a master who was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment and had the formation attainments of the second-level primary level."

"Didn't he learn the Lingshu Formation?"

Yan Jiaoxi shook his head and said regretfully: "No."

Mo Hua frowned and said doubtfully:

"A monk in the middle stage of foundation building should have about fourteen lines of spiritual consciousness. How can he still not learn the Lingshu Formation? Is the Lingshu Formation so difficult to learn?"

"It's not that simple..."

Yan Jiaoxi organized his thoughts and explained the ink painting:

"For the master, spiritual consciousness is the threshold and the basis, but that's all.

"I don't have enough spiritual consciousness to learn formations."

"With divine consciousness, you only have the qualifications to learn formations, but you may not be able to learn them."

"We need to learn more, practice more, think more, and understand more..."

"If you don't work hard, no matter how good your spiritual consciousness talent is, you can only waste your years and waste your talents, and you will not be able to become an extraordinary formation master."

Mo Hua nodded.

Mr. Zhuang also taught himself this.

Yan Jiaoxi's eyes were awe-inspiring, and then he sighed:

"As for the Lingshu Formation, it is such a formation that is extremely difficult to understand even if you have enough spiritual consciousness..."

Mo Hua said: "Is it because it involves the understanding of the way of heaven and the origin of spiritual power?"

Yan Jiaoxi looked surprised, nodded and said:

"good."

Then he sighed:

"Mr. Zhuang is indeed an expert. This kid Mo Hua, at such an old age, already knows the in-depth understanding of these formations."

It seems that I made the right choice back then, otherwise I would really have wasted such a good formation seedling.

Mo Hua asked again: "Did the second-grade Patriarch of the Xiaolingyin Sect fail to learn the Lingshu Formation because he failed to understand the great principle of the Lingshu Formation?"

Yan Jiaoxi nodded and said bitterly:

"Yes, Master, he probably knows what the origin of the Lingshu Formation is, but he just can't understand it, let alone draw the Lingshu Formation..."

"Sometimes even if it is painted, it is just a skeleton without charm and has no effect."

Mo Hua nodded to express understanding.

When I first learned the thick soil formation, I didn't know that it was necessary to communicate with the Tao Yun of the earth. The formations I drew only had formal formations, but did not have the original effect of the formations.

It's like a pattern that has lost its charm.

"Then what effect does this Lingshu Formation have?" Mo Hua asked curiously.

Yan Jiaoxi said: "I don't know the specifics because no one in the sect has learned it..."

"But according to the sect master's understanding, the core of this formation should be the word 'control'."

"control?"

Yan Jiaoxi nodded, "Spiritual power control."

Mo Hua thought of Zhang Quan, who controlled the corpse.

It seems that what he thought was right, this Zhang Quan is to refine the corpse first, and then use the Spiritual Pivot Formation to increase the number of corpses he can control.

only……

"This... doesn't seem that powerful..." Mo Hua said weakly.

It's just the effect of spiritual control.

Zhang Quan used it to refine corpses. Although the zombies he controlled were large in number and harmful, they were not worth worrying about.

If you really want to take action, there are still many ways to target it.

"No," Yan Jiaoxi said with a solemn expression, "The Lingshu Formation is actually very powerful."

Mo Hua was slightly startled.

Yan Jiaoxi explained the ink painting:

"Spiritual power control is extremely important, corpse control is just a trick."

"In other aspects of monasticism, ranging from wooden and stone puppets to large machine-heavy beasts and even monastic giants, formations such as the Spiritual Center Formation are needed for central control."

"Ordinary formations do not have such a powerful spirit control effect."

"This kind of formation is not effective enough for a single monk. But the more monks there are, the greater the power, the more far-reaching the plot, and the larger the mechanisms, equipment, and monastic projects involved, the more important the spiritual hub formation becomes!"

Mo Hua was shocked when he heard this.

It seems that I am being shallow.

The world of cultivation is vast and vast, and indeed there is a lot of knowledge about cultivation that I have never understood.

The Lingshu Formation is so powerful...

"Yan Jiaoxi, do you know Zhang Quan?" Mo Hua couldn't help but ask.

Yan Jiaoxi looked serious, "Have you seen him?"

"Yeah." Mo Hua nodded.

Yan Jiaoxi frowned, "This person is sinister and vicious. It's best not to have any conflicts with him."

Mo Hua whispered:

"It's too late. He is probably dreaming about killing me now..."

Yan Jiaoxi opened his mouth wide, "You...what did you do to him?"

Mo Hua thought for a while and said, "It doesn't seem to be anything. The main reason is that he is narrow-minded and somewhat vindictive."

I just wanted to catch him but failed, I tried to snatch his bell but failed, and ended up grabbing a few zombies.

And I did it with the help of my senior brothers and sisters.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Quan is a picker of weaklings. If he doesn't hate his senior brothers and sisters, he only hates himself.

Mo Hua cursed in his heart.

Yan Jiaoxi didn't know what to say.

Zhang Quan is a foundation builder and a corpse cultivator. He has been dealing with corpses all year round, and he has taken many lives from his men.

He actually hated Mo Hua...

Yan Jiaoxi was worried.

Mo Hua whispered: "Yan Jiaoxi, is the Lingshu Formation on Zhang Shen?"

Yan Jiaoxi was slightly startled, nodded slowly and said:

"That's what I guessed too..."

Mo Hua nodded, then thought of something and asked:

"Yan Jiaoxi, how did you get to the zombie village?"

Yan Jiaoxi looked melancholy, thought for a while, and said slowly:

"Two years ago, I came to Nanyue City to find the traitor who deceived my master and destroyed my ancestors..."

"But there is no trace of the traitor in Nanyue City."

"I concealed my identity and inquired for a long time, but there was no news. When I was about to leave, I noticed something strange in the mine. I thought it was the traitor who was causing trouble, so I rented a room near the mine and planned to find out."

"One night, I heard a noise and quietly went out. After some twists and turns, I found a few monks transporting coffins near the mine..."

"I was careful enough, but I never expected that there would be a Foundation Establishment monk among them."

"Is it that Zhang Quan?" Mo Hua asked.

"Yes." Yan Jiaoxi nodded, and then felt a little ashamed, "I only focused on learning formations and was not good at Taoism. I was no match for them. I couldn't escape, so I fell into their hands."

"Zhang Quan looked through my storage bag and saw that I was an array master, so he asked me to work for them."

"I didn't want to help the tyrants, but my sect has a deep hatred and I have to avenge it. I can only..."

Yan Jiaoxi looked ashamed, "...I can only compromise and enter the zombie village to draw formations for them."

Mo Hua asked: "Then have you seen the Lingshu array diagram on Zhang Shen?"

Yan Jiaoxi was helpless: "I've never seen it before..."

"I suspect that the corpses he made were painted with spiritual pivot formations, but Zhang Quan never let me draw formations for zombies, and he never let me come into contact with those walking corpses..."

Mo Hua said: "Are you afraid that any secrets will be exposed?"

Yan Jiaoxi nodded, "It's very possible."

Mo Hua held his chin and thought about it for a while.

As expected, there are still many secrets about Zhang Quan, and we need to find ways to find out.

The Lingshu Formation Diagram is very important, so we must find a way to get it.

In this zombie village, where people kill people and refine corpses, they have to find a way to get rid of them.

Mo Hua planned what Mingming would do next, and then said:

"Yan Jiaoxi, please stay for a few more days. I will pick you up after a few days."

Yan Jiaoxi was stunned, "How...how do you answer this?"

This is a zombie village, with robbers, corpse cultivators, walking corpses and iron corpses. Zhang Quan, who is in the foundation building stage, may come back at any time.

"Don't worry." Mo Hua assured.

He wanted to take Yan Jiaoxi out now.

The Walking Dead Village is not a good place after all.

But he sneaked in invisibly, and he didn't have the strength to kill everyone for the time being. Even if he had the cover of his junior sister and junior senior brother, he couldn't guarantee Yan Jiaoxi's thoroughness during the battle.

Then it is better to take a long-term approach and make thorough preparations before proceeding.

Anyway, with their status as formation masters, these corpse cultivators should not embarrass Yan Jiaoxi.

Mo Hua had already made up his mind, but then he thought of something, and said to Yan Jiaoxi with "serious words and thoughtful words":

"Teach me, Xiaolingyin Sect is gone. Don't think about revenge. Think more about yourself, live well, find a Taoist partner, and start a family..."

"What you said..." Yan Jiaoxi frowned, "Why do you sound so familiar to me?"

Mo Hua said crisply: "This is what Guanshi Mo asked me to say."

Yan Jiaoxi had a complicated look on his face, and made another mental note to Manager Mo.

It doesn't matter if you nag yourself, you have to let Mo Hua do it.

I'll settle the score with him slowly in the future.

Mo Hua warned him for a while, and then said goodbye:

"Yan Jiaoxi, I'm going back first and will come back to you in a few days."

Mo Hua's tone was relaxed and casual, making Yan Jiaoxi feel dazed for a while.

It seems that this is not the zombie village, but an inn in Nanyue City, and Mo Hua will come to visit again in a few days...

Then the ink painting disappeared in front of Yan Jiaoxi.

Yan Jiaoxi's pupils shrank.

Although he had expected it and knew that Mo Hua had hidden methods, he still felt very shocked at this time.

When Mo Hua came, he didn't notice anything, and when he left, there was no trace.

This concealment method is quite clever.

Who taught him?

Mr. Zhuang...

Yan Jiaoxi stood stunned for a moment, and suddenly he was stunned again. He remembered a question:

Why did Mo Hua look for the Lingshu Formation Diagram?

Mo Hua has a lot of questions. He kept asking questions at Tongxian Sect before.

As a teacher, Yan Jiaoxi habitually answers questions for Mo Hua.

So whatever Mo Hua asked, he would answer.

But then he suddenly reacted.

After all the hard work in ink painting, what are you doing looking for this array diagram?

An incredible thought suddenly came to mind.

Mo Hua, this kid, doesn’t really want to learn.

impossible……

The twelve lines of the first grade require spiritual consciousness...

Yan Jiaoxi was startled.

He realized that when Mo Hua entered the room, he completely escaped his spiritual prying eyes, and when he left, he was silent.

Moreover, the aura around him was obscure and unfathomable.

This is a sign of powerful spiritual consciousness.

Could it be...

Yan Jiaoxi looked at the empty room where the ink painting had just disappeared, and his heart suddenly trembled.

"Lingshu Formation..."

Yan Jiaoxi murmured, with a hint of hope in his eyes.

He also wanted to see if anyone could really learn this Xiaolingyin Sect's first-grade and twelve-line spirit pivot formation that no one had been able to understand for hundreds of years!
