Chapter 83: Dive on the Deserted Island 【For Further Reading】
Formation is a very profound skill. Its requirements for cultivators to have a much higher understanding and talent requirements than to refine alchemy, refining weapons, and making talismans.
Wang Ping has been getting the formation script "Mountain and River Formation Strategy" for more than ten years, but he has only a few formations he has learned from it so far.
Generally speaking, there are two ways for formation masters to set up formations.
One is to take advantage of the situation, use natural objects of heaven and earth, such as mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, plants, trees, mountains and rocks as the basis for the formation. By modifying and carving these natural objects in the world, and then filling them with spiritual objects, in order to achieve the effect of forming a formation with the help of the natural power of heaven and earth.
The advantage of the formation arranged in this way is that it does not consume much material for spiritual objects and is not easy to be damaged due to changes in time. The disadvantage is that it consumes a lot of time and effort and cannot move.
The second type is to refine a complete set of array flags and array plates, and use these array tools to arrange arrays.
The benefits of using tools to arrange arrays are very obvious. They do not need to be restricted by the terrain environment. Formation can be arranged anywhere, and the formation can be put away at any time and used repeatedly.
However, refining formation tools requires a lot of precious materials, and there is a high probability of failure. It requires extremely high requirements for the formation master's formation attainment and certain refining skills.
Moreover, if the formation arranged by the formation equipment is to exert its power, it requires a lot of spirit stones to provide energy, and it will also be damaged as the number of uses increases.
Wang Ping's current formation attainments are obviously not enough to support him in using the second method to set up the formation, so he can only use the first method to set up the formation.
The reason why he chose to temporarily settle on this deserted island was because he found that the terrain environment here was easier to arrange the [Mist Movie Miscellaneous Array].
The array layout requirement of the [Mist Movie Mistake Array] is that there must be a moving water area within 30 miles nearby. At the same time, the formation center must be selected in the spring pool, and the location must be a leeward place. If it is surrounded by mountains and rivers, it will be more suitable.
More than thirty feet below Wang Ping's cave, there is a natural spring. Although the spring water inside is a bit salty and not very suitable for drinking, there is obviously no difference between salty and light in the array.
Moreover, Wang Ping also has the spirit beads and clam shells produced by the Fantasy Cloud Clam, as well as the silver flounder eyeballs that can perform spiritual illusions.
With the help of these materials, when he arranges the [Mist Movie Mistake Array], he can save a lot of unnecessary hard work and increase the power of the formation.
In this way, it took about half a month to form a permanent [Mist Movie Miscellaneous Array] and was arranged by Wang Ping.
After the formation was arranged, wisps of white water mist condensed out of thin air from the spring that was the center of the formation, and then spread around the mountain. After about an hour passed, the hill where Wang Ping's cave was located was submerged in the thick white mist and could no longer see clearly.
However, Wang Ping, who was in the formation, could easily see the scenery outside, and his vision was not hindered by the white fog.
This is the mystery of the formation!
With the protection of the formation, Wang Ping can rest assured and go to seclusion to practice.
Since he decided to participate in the "Island-Snatching Conference", he must have gone to qualify.
It just so happens that he still has nine "blue algae pills" in his hand. If he makes good use of these pills and the help of the Spirit Eye Stone, he will be promoted to the tenth level of Qi Refining before the "Island Seizing Conference" is held, there is still a high chance of doing it.
When Wang Ping was concentrating on his retreat and practicing, he assigned the alert task on the deserted island to Bai Yu and Xiao Feng.
He specially made a passive talisman with two spiritual beads of the magic cloud clams and wore them on the two spiritual pets, allowing them to enter and exit the formation freely.
Every day, Bai Yu would go out to sea to patrol the surrounding waters. Once he found that a cultivator was approaching the island, he would patrol and fly back to warn him, so that Wang Ping could put the Stone of the Spirit Eye into the "Shadow and Earth Shell" in advance to hide it.
Xiaofeng acts as a reserve warning force and specializes in guarding the cave.
In case of an enemy that Bai Yu failed to discover in time, approaching the deserted island, it can also warn Wang Ping in time.
With the double warning of these two spiritual pets, Wang Ping's life in the deserted island can be said to be unstoppable and plain.
Occasionally, there will be passers-by cultivators who are curious about who live in seclusion on such a small deserted island and come outside the cave to speak out for temptations.
Whenever this happens, the demon wolf Xiaofeng will rush out of the formation and roar and drive away people.
The cave is protected by formations, and the demon wolf spirit pet, who can be promoted to the first-level monster with only one step away from cultivation, guards the cave.
In this case, even though the master Wang Ping never spoke from beginning to end, no one of the monks who came to the door to test dared to truly show their malice and eventually left in disappointment.
Time passed day by day, and soon it took more than half a year.
In eight months, Wang Ping took a total of five "Cyanobacteria Pills". If he included the one he took on White Whale Island, it would be six.
With the help of these six "Blue Algae Pills" and Spiritual Eye Stones, his cultivation level was also smoothly and as he wished, he was promoted to the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage.
The promotion of cultivation not only drives the growth of magic power, but also increases the spiritual power of the Qi Refining Cultivator.
Now, Wang Ping's spiritual consciousness has been released to a range of fifteen feet, and the intensity of the spiritual consciousness has increased several times compared to the fourth level of Qi refining.
It is said that when the foundation-building stage is reached, the spiritual consciousness of the immortal cultivator will undergo a greater transformation, and the spiritual consciousness of the foundation-building stage cultivator can even reach hundreds of feet.
At this time, it has been less than two months since the "Island-Snatching Conference" held in the Qiansha Islands once a year.
After Wang Ping calculated the time, he did not dare to delay the time. He quickly left the customs and put away several spiritual materials used to set up the array, and then rode Bai Yu away from the deserted island without any thought.
If everything went well, Wang Pingdang could arrive at the main island of Qiansha Island in half a month.
But on the seventh day after he left the deserted island, he suddenly encountered an unpredictable disaster.
At that time, Wang Ping was riding white feathers to head towards the "Jinsha Island" in accordance with the chart.
Unexpectedly, I encountered a fighting battle between immortal cultivators on the sea.
On the blue sea, six or seven immortal cultivators in various clothes were fighting each other on flying magic weapons. At the same time, a large number of sea ship fragments were floating on the sea.
There are two sides of these cultivators fighting. One side is the masked pirates who are all masked with black veils. There are a total of four people, including a peak Qi Refining monk and three late Qi Refining monks.
The other three seemed to be from a certain cultivator force, wearing uniform blue and white clothes. The leading white-haired old man also had the peak cultivation level of Qi Refining, and the remaining two were also in the late stage of Qi Refining.
When Wang Ping saw these monks, the side with few people was already being beaten by many people, and he was almost unable to hold on.
But when he appeared, the old man with white hair, who was the leader of the man, suddenly lit up his eyes and shouted loudly:
Chapter completed!
