Chapter 19 Earth Solidification Formation

The deposit for the earth-fixing array was twenty spirit stones. Mo Hua took out ten spirit stones from the spirit stones he had earned before and deposited them to the fat steward. He received the earth-fixing array diagram and ten sets of paper and ink materials, with a term of twenty days.

After leaving the business, Mo Hua went to the pastry shop again and spent two spirit stones to buy ten multicolored cakes. Then he went straight back to the sect and divided the cakes among Da Hu and the other two.

The food in the sect was not good. The three of them were greedy at ordinary times, but there was nothing delicious.

Mo Hua bought some cakes to satisfy their cravings.

A few days later, in the evening, after a day of classes, Mo Hua was studying the formation of the earth-fixing array behind closed doors with his disciple Curie when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.

As soon as Mo Hua opened the door, he saw Shuang Hu standing in front of the door stealthily.

Shuang Hu secretly handed an oil-paper bag to Mo Hua and said in a low voice:

"I left it for you on purpose. Don't tell anyone else."

After saying that, he looked around and ran away like a thief.

Disciple Residence is a dormitory for disciples of Tongxianmen. There are two people in one room. The room is not big. There are two simple wooden beds and two somewhat worn wooden tables, which are just enough for disciples to live.

There are also luxurious and comfortable disciple residences in Tongxianmen, but they require extra spiritual stones.

Mo Hua originally had a fellow disciple as a roommate, but he dropped out this year. It was not because he could not pay the tuition, but because he simply felt that cultivation was boring and did not want to learn anymore, so Mo Hua was the only one in the room now.

Mo Hua closed the door, opened the still hot oil paper, and found a freshly roasted chicken leg inside.

The chicken leg was the size of a fist, steaming, and a little burnt. You can smell the tempting fragrance, especially the faint spiritual energy floating on it.

It is the meat of a spiritual beast.

"This... It can't be stolen from somewhere..."

The beast meat with spiritual energy, Shuanghu and others can't afford it at all. Looking at Shuanghu's sneaky look, it can only be stolen.

Mo Hua hesitated for a moment and took a bite. It had a bit of burnt smell and meaty aroma, but it was not roasted thoroughly and was not seasoned, so the taste was somewhat bland.

The cooking of meals in the cultivation world is also very particular. If you don't learn it specifically, it's hard to make delicious food.

Because the ingredients in the cultivation world are difficult to handle, for example, the taste of meat is very tough, and some meat, such as the meat of herbivorous monsters, can't be cooked at all without spending a lot of spiritual power to drive the flame and steaming for a long time.

The texture of spiritual meat will be more delicate, but cooking also requires some thought.

In addition to meat, other fruits and vegetables, in addition to their own taste, also have some spiritual energy. These spiritual energy and the taste of the ingredients themselves are mixed. If they are not properly mixed, the taste will be very strange.

The chicken leg in Mo Hua's hand was simply roasted. Probably because he was afraid of being discovered by others, he also secretly made a fire and roasted it in a hurry, so it couldn't be roasted very deliciously.

But Mo Hua, who hadn't eaten meat for more than a month, didn't have so many particularities. It was good to have some.

Mo Hua gnawed the chicken leg with some effort, then lit a fire to burn the oil paper, and threw the bones into the stream outside the house, completely destroying the evidence.

After eating, Mo Hua spent some time refining the spiritual energy contained in the chicken, and then buried his head to continue studying the formation.

Sure enough, two days later, Mo Hua heard that several Qi Refining disciples stole the elder's golden pheasant, plucked all the feathers, and roasted it to eat.

The elder was furious, caught several disciples, and punished them severely.

Two days later, Mo Hua saw Da Hu and his three people with bruised faces and two big lumps on their heads.

The three of them were all in Tongxuan Peak, and the elders could find them with a simple investigation. They couldn't escape, and they were bound to be punished.

However, the few people just looked miserable, most of them were flesh wounds, and the elders couldn't really do anything to them.

It was nothing more than a small punishment and a warning to other disciples.

Dahu and the other two looked miserable, but they held their heads high and looked a little proud. After all, being able to steal a chicken from under the nose of the elder was not something that ordinary disciples could do.

When they saw Mo Hua, they pretended not to see him. Xiaohu even secretly winked at Mo Hua, asking him to pretend not to know them.

Mo Hua was a little amused and thought that he would buy more cakes for them during the next ten-day break.

There were still seven days until the next ten-day break, and thirteen days had passed since he received the formation materials from the fat steward, but Mo Hua's comprehension of the earth-fixing formation was not going smoothly.

The formation pattern of the earth-fixing formation was something Mo Hua had never learned before. It was much more complicated than the basic earth formation pattern taught by the sect, and it was more difficult to comprehend.

Moreover, the earth-fixing formation was composed of four formation patterns, and the spiritual consciousness requirements were also high.

It was not too difficult for Mo Hua to remember the formation pattern, but when practicing on the stone tablet, he consumed a lot more spiritual consciousness, and it was easy to make mistakes.

Either the array patterns drawn cannot form an array, or the array patterns drawn are simply ineffective and cannot conduct spiritual power.

Mo Hua has been groping for ten days, but still has no clue. Sometimes he seems to understand, but he still makes mistakes when he draws.

Finally, there is no other way, so Mo Hua decided to ask Teacher Yan for advice.

One day, Teacher Yan finished his class and was tidying up the desk. The disciples left in twos and threes.

Mo Hua took a few basic earth array patterns to Teacher Yan and asked respectfully:

"Teacher, I don't quite understand the earth array patterns here. Please give me some advice."

Teacher Yan looked at the array patterns handed over by Mo Hua and said:

"This is the earth array pattern among the basic five elements array patterns, and it is a relatively standardized general array pattern. It should not be too difficult for you. If you can't draw it well, just practice more."

The earth array patterns taught by the sect are very basic, and of course it is not difficult for Mo Hua. What Mo Hua wants to ask is actually something else.

Mo Hua took out several earth element formation patterns from the solid earth formation and said:

"Disciples occasionally see these formation patterns and find that they are somewhat different from those in the textbook, but they cannot tell the specific differences. Moreover, it is easy to make mistakes when drawing. I don't know what went wrong."

Yan Jiaoxi looked at it and said with some surprise:

"This is the changed Five Elements formation pattern. It is different from the one officially taught by the sect. This kind is not standardized and not very common. To draw this kind of formation pattern, you need to change the brushwork, and the order is also different from the standard formation pattern. Basically Change the order of these strokes..."

Yan Jiaoxi took a piece of paper and drew a few formation patterns, explaining as he drew.

After Mo Hua heard this, he suddenly realized.

The painting method of formation patterns is also somewhat similar to that of calligraphy. In addition to the standard formation patterns, there are also some more distinctive formation patterns, and the brushwork is somewhat different.

There are many types of this variant formation pattern, and they cannot be classified, so the sect normally only teaches the standard standard formation pattern.

"No wonder they say that the formation is extensive and profound, and there are too many twists and turns in it. If I hadn't asked the teacher to learn it, I wouldn't have thought of it..." Mo Hua secretly complained in his heart.

"Then we need to connect these formation patterns together to form a formation, such as this formation..."

In the end, Mo Hua directly took out the formation diagram of the Solid Earth Formation.

Yan Jiaoxi glanced at it, recognized it, and said in surprise: "This is the solid soil formation," and then looked at the ink painting and said:

"It's too early for you to see. This is not something you can draw now."

"Disciple is just curious and wants to find out the whole story." Mo Hua asked seriously.

"That's right...it's better if you know something in advance."

Yan Jiaoxi was in high spirits. He had been teaching basic formation patterns on weekdays, which was somewhat boring. Now it was rare that he could talk about some decent formations, and his interest was obviously much higher.

"Arrays are all composed of arrays arranged and interconnected. A simple array contains simple arrays and a small number of arrays. The more difficult an array is, the more arrays it contains. Various arrays The sequential arrangement, spatial composition, and interconnection become more complex and exquisite. The solid earth formation contains four formations. The formations need to be drawn in sequence according to fixed directions, leaving two positions of Qian and Kun..."

Yan Jiaoxi lectured with great interest, and he also listened to the ink painting with great interest. Until the end of the teaching, Yan Jiaoxi still had some unfinished ideas, and then warned:

"The art of formation is profound and profound. You might as well understand it in advance. What the sect teaches is only the basics of the basics, and it doesn't even count as an introduction. If you want to become a true formation master, the difficulty and effort required are the same as those of you now. Unimaginable..."

Yan Jiaoxi paused and then said:

"At the same time, you must not be too ambitious and blindly draw formations that you cannot master. It's okay if you just look at them. If you actually start painting, you will easily run out of consciousness. You must remember this!"

Mo Hua saluted and said: "Disciple has been taught!"
