Asking About Longevity Chapter 178

Chapter 178 Limitations

 After Mo Hua planned the construction formation of the weapon refiner, he checked it himself and felt that there was no big problem.

 The basic functions are all there. Since they are all considered separate formations, they are not closely related. At least there will be no problem in drawing them.

 But Mo Hua felt somewhat uneasy.

 The construction of the Weapon Refining Center is of great importance, and it is related to the cultivation and life of casual practitioners for ten, decades, or even longer. There cannot be any negligence.

Since you are not sure, it is better to ask Mr. Zhuang for advice.

Mo Hua then went to Zuowangju and showed Mr. Zhuang the architectural formation plan he had made.

Mr. Zhuang's eyelids twitched as he glanced at the densely packed formation diagrams. However, he was relieved when he saw that the diagrams only showed simple arrangements of single formations and multiple formations, independent of each other.

“Sir, is there something wrong?” Mo Hua asked.

Mr. Zhuang shook his head slightly and said, "It's okay."

 “Can it be used?”

"That's enough." Mr. Zhuang said, then took out a few pictures and handed them to Mo Hua, "These are also simple architectural array diagrams. You can refer to them."

Mo Hua took it and couldn't wait to take a look.

The formations and ink paintings on the architectural formation diagram are not bad as expected, and they are all mainly civil formations. Single formations range from five formations to nine formations, and there are also some first-grade complex formations, but they are not special. Difficult, but still within the controllable range of ink painting.

 It's just that although these architectural formations are mainly civil formations, they are mixed with other five-element formations, and there are many differences in details.

For example, how to use metal arrays to solidify earth and stone, how to use water arrays to nourish earth and wood, and how to use fire arrays to ensure the heating and lighting of buildings, etc.

 The framework looks similar, but there are a lot of details worthy of consideration.

Mo Hua looked at it and became fascinated. When he came back to his senses, he found that Mr. Zhuang was already lying on the chair, leisurely closing his eyes and resting.

Mo Hua scratched his head in embarrassment.

Mr. Zhuang opened his eyes, smiled and asked, "How do you see?"

Mo Hua thought for a while and said: "The formation diagrams given by the teacher look simple, but the various formations are closely related to each other. There are actually a lot of details in them, and the disciple didn't understand them very well at the moment."

Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Yes, once there are many formations involved in various branches of Taoism, the planning, coordination, and mutual complementation and mutual repulsion of different formations require careful consideration... This is the first time you can see these The doorway is already very good.”

Mo Hua smiled happily, then thought about it, frowned and asked:

"Sir, although the formations on these architectural formations are arranged with attention to coordination and control, they are still independent of each other. If these formations are connected together, will the effect of the entire formation be stronger? ?”

Mr. Zhuang showed an intriguing smile, "How can you connect?"

Mo Hua frowned and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly: "...use the formation pivot?"

"What will happen if we connect them with array pivots?" Mr. Zhuang asked again.

Mo Hua thought about it for a moment. When a single formation is connected, it becomes a complex formation. When so many single formations are connected together, it's like...

 “Large-scale formation?”

Mo Hua glanced at Mr. Zhuang.

“It can be put simply.” Mr. Zhuang's eyes were meaningful, “The large-scale complex formation is actually called the 'big formation'.”

 Great formation!

Mo Hua's heart skipped a beat.

 The grand formation that countless formation masters dream of and want to draw?

 The type of formation that has the largest cultivation world, the most numerous array patterns, and the most powerful effectiveness?

Mo Hua couldn't help but ask: “Can I draw it?”

Mr. Zhuang stretched out his long and white fingers and tapped Mo Hua's little head lightly.

"Don't be too ambitious. You haven't even learned how to re-form, so don't think about the big formation."

Mo Hua covered his head and chuckled, "Okay, sir."

However, he was still a little concerned, so he asked in a low voice: "Sir, where is the difficulty in the formation?" Mr. Zhuang shook his head slightly and said with a hint of helplessness: "The difficulty lies in the formation hub."

 “Array pivot?”

Mr. Zhuang asked: "Is it difficult to build a new formation?"

Mo Hua nodded, "It's difficult."

Mr. Zhuang said calmly: "The complex formation only has a few single formations connected, and the formation pivots are not easy to learn. However, the formation pivots of the big formation can be connected to hundreds or even thousands of single formations."

Mo Hua was stunned for a moment, hundreds or thousands?

How much divine consciousness there is in the sea of ​​consciousness is not enough.

Even if you exhaust your spiritual consciousness and crush the sea of ​​consciousness into powder, you still can't squeeze out so much spiritual consciousness...

Mr. Zhuang said: "So a first-level formation cannot be drawn by a first-level master. Usually only a second-level master can learn the first-level formation and become the main master of the first-level formation."

 “Main formation division?” Mo Hua asked doubtfully.

Mr. Zhuang said: "The formation master who plans a first-class formation and can draw the pivot of the formation is called the main formation master."

"Why don't you draw them all yourself? Do you need to prioritize them?"

Mr. Zhuang said with a smile: "The formation is huge and has numerous formation patterns. If you draw it by yourself, you will be exhausted. Therefore, the formation is usually planned by a main formation master and draws the formation pivots by himself. Others The formation master draws a specific single formation on the formation pivot structure based on the formation diagram planned by the main formation master."

 “Oh oh.” Mo Hua understood.

 One fence has three stakes, one hero has three gangs.

 The formation is so huge that it cannot be drawn by one person. It requires the cooperation of many formation masters to build the formation.

Such a huge and voluminous project must be a very important event, and it is crucial to a family, a sect, and even a city and a realm.

 No wonder many formation masters regard grand formation as their lifelong pursuit.

Then Mo Hua thought of the most critical question: "Building a large formation will cost a lot of spiritual stones..."

Mr. Zhuang thought for a while and said: "Although it is a large formation, its scale can be large or small. There should not be too many smaller formations."

Mo Hua asked weakly: "How many spiritual stones are needed for a smaller scale..."

Mr. Zhuang showed an interesting expression and said with a smile:

"Didn't you dig a spiritual mine? If you use all the spiritual stones there, you can probably build a small large array. The premise is that the array master, craftsman, and weapon refiner don't need wages, and they don't count as mobilizing the large array. The spiritual stones needed for the formation.”

Mo Hua was stunned.

 A complete spiritual mine, with so many spiritual stones, is only enough to build a small large formation.

If you include the wages and the spiritual stones to activate the formation, this is not enough...

 After all, the formation master who can plan and lead the construction of a first-level formation usually has to be a second-level formation master, which cannot be hired casually.

Thinking of so many spiritual stones, Mo Hua couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

How deep a family background is to be able to build a first-grade formation. No wonder the entire Tongxian City has never seen a large formation.

Mo Hua gave up. Even if he could draw a large formation, he didn't have that many spiritual stones to build it.

However, Mo Hua was still curious: "Can a first-grade formation master really not be the main formation master of a first-grade formation?"

 “Generally speaking.”

 “What if it's not ordinary?”

Mr. Zhuang looked at the ink painting, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly:

“If it's not normal, just break through the limits of spiritual consciousness.”
