Asking About Longevity Chapter 528

Chapter 528 Hidden Formation Pavilion

 Being the first to attack? To support the scene? To save face?

Mo Hua was startled.

 Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi also looked at each other.

Mo Hua asked: "Master, what should I do?"

“It's very simple,” Mr. Zhuang said with a smile. “You go and compete with them. If you beat them, you can learn the Five Elements Spiritual Formation.”

 “Compare with the first-level formation?”

 “Yipin.”

Mo Hua's eyes lit up.

 Compared with the first-level formation, he is not afraid of anyone, except of course Mr. Zhuang.

But he won't be careless.

Mo Hua frowned and said, "Master, what if the Five Elements Sect makes a small move and I lose?"

It doesn't matter if you lose.

 Personal victory or defeat is irrelevant.

 Although the Five Elements Jue Zhen is important, it is only a matter of time before you want to learn it.

 The most critical issue is that if you lose, you will lose the face of your master.

Master's face is the most important thing!

 The ink painting looks a bit serious.

Mr. Zhuang felt slightly warm in his heart, then raised his eyebrows and said:

"Don't worry, you are my disciple, what can they do to defeat you?"

These words were a bit subtle, but Mo Hua felt that they made sense. He couldn't help but nodded. It just looked like he was still a little worried.

Mr. Zhuang's eyes moved slightly and he said again:

“Do you remember what I told you back then?”

Mo Hua is a little confused and doesn't know what Mr. Zhuang said.

Mr. Zhuang pretended to be sorry and sighed:

“When I came to the Five Elements Sect, I wanted to learn this art of Jueji, but I failed to learn it due to various reasons. Therefore, I was despised by them and lost a lot of face..."

 “I can't avenge this revenge back then.”

“Now I'm counting on you to help restore this situation for me...”

 Being slighted or losing face?

Mo Hua's little face tensed up, and he immediately said with high morale:

“Master, don't worry! I will definitely find this place for you and kill them to pieces!”

 “Learn their secret skills again and make them angry to death!”

Mr. Zhuang couldn't help but smile proudly, "Okay, kill them all, and then **** them off to death!"

 The old man outside the door couldn't help but shook his head when he heard this.

 At such an old age, he is still like a child, greedy for success.

Mo Hua thought for a moment and then asked: "Master, don't you show mercy?"

Mr. Zhuang shook his head, "Not only don't you use it, you also have to be more arrogant."

 “Arrogant?”

"That's right," Mr. Zhuang said, "use the skill of pretending to be a suit that I once taught you."

 “Pretending?”

 Can't remember the ink painting clearly.

Mr. Zhuang demonstrated the ink painting again.

He suppressed his gentle expression, his eyebrows became sharp, his expression became indifferent, and he raised his head calmly, like a sword that was born from the dust. When he looked at it, his aura was majestic, and he was like a blue dragon looking down at the world.

 Her grace and grace make people dare not look directly at her.

Mr. Zhuang quickly calmed down and his expression became gentle again, "Have you remembered?"

"Uh-huh."

Mo Hua's eyes lit up, and he followed suit.

He held his head high, pinched his waist, and had a look of arrogance on his fair little face.

It's just not like a dragon, but more like a ferocious little tiger.

Mr. Zhuang couldn't help but touched Mo Hua's head and commented:

 “It's not very interesting, but it works. I'll have to practice more in the future.”

 “Okay, Master!” Mo Hua said obediently.

  Looking at the pair of master and disciple, Mr. Puppet looked even more speechless...

Mr. Zhuang ordered Mo Hua again:

"In a few days, you will take the lead and give your senior brothers and sisters a place to stand. Whoever beats you will be able to compete with your senior brothers and sisters in formations."

When Mr. Zhuang said this, Mo Hua understood:

 “I am the threshold!”

Whoever wants to enter and compete with his brothers and sisters must first cross his own threshold.

Mr. Zhuang nodded happily.

This kid is just smart.

Bai Zisheng on the side felt a little guilty, "Master, my formation skills are not as good as my junior brother..."

Bai Zisheng is very self-aware. Although he is a senior brother, his formation level is far inferior to that of Mo Hua.

If someone really can win ink painting, then he will definitely not be his opponent.

Bai Zixi is okay, her formation level is not as good as Mo Hua, but it is still very high.

 But you will be exposed.

Mr. Zhuang smiled lightly and said: "It doesn't matter, your junior brother's threshold is very high..."

Moreover, it is still “high” that is unattainable.

Mr. Zhuang thought of the ink paintings during the Qi Refining period and was still a little amazed at the current level of formations.

 The ink painting was praised by Mr. Zhuang, and his face was smiling again.

 In the next few days, the Five Elements Sect was calm on the surface, but secretly people were coming and going, sending letters and bargaining...

Master Liao welcomed him and sent him off.

 Elders move around frequently.

 Some strange disciples also appeared quietly in the Five Elements Sect...

Mr. Zhuang sat in front of the window and watched all this, calmly and calmly.

 A few days later, Head Liao came to invite Mr. Zhuang and said respectfully:

“The discussion meeting is about to begin. Please invite Mr. Zhuang and several disciples to move to the Tibetan Formation Pavilion.”

Mr. Zhuang nodded slightly, stood up and looked at the ink painting, as well as Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi, and said:

 “Let's go.”

 Taoism meeting.

 It is a meeting of monks discussing Taoism.

 It is also a general term for various meetings of monks.

When monks gather together, they can discuss cultivation, knowledge, weapon refining, elixir refining, formation techniques, and even raising spiritual animals, cats and dogs.

 The Wuxing Sect's discussion meeting is mainly to demonstrate the formation.

The Hidden Formation Pavilion is the monastic attic where the sect collects formations.

 It contains formation books, formation diagrams, precious ink, ancient pens, precious formation paper, and a series of formation-related monastic matters.

Zangzhen Pavilion is a secret place and one of the important places for monastic seminars in the sect.

The Five Elements Sect once established its sect based on the formation method, but now it uses earth and wood to build up the sect, so the hidden formation pavilion is very large and luxurious.

Zangzhen Pavilion has four floors in total.

 The venue for the Taoist Forum is on the widest floor, decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and is magnificent.

 At this time, all the pen and ink desks were ready, and all the disciples of the Five Elements Sect were already seated.

Setting up were the great elders of the Five Elements Sect, head Liao, as well as other elders and guests.

The great elder who has been in seclusion for a long time has come out.

Beside the great elder, there are also two old men in rich clothes and gold crowns and jade ornaments. They have strong auras and are clearly two great monks in the golden elixir realm.

At this time, the great elder was discussing in a low voice with these two old men:

“…This person's surname is Zhuang, and he has a great background. It's not appropriate to go into details…”

“It's an agreement made by our ancestors and we have to abide by it...”

“But the sect is in a state of decline and is no longer what it used to be…they bullied them to the point of being…”

“…covets my Five Elements Sect, the ancestral formation…”

“Two old friends, please help me, the Five Elements Sect!”

The great elder deliberately acted miserably and spoke sincerely.

 The other two old men said, "Definitely, definitely!", but their expressions were dull and indifferent.

 The elder scolded them in his heart.

　　It's true that people become better with age!

 The older you get, the more worldly you become.

　　They are two iron roosters who cannot afford to start early without any profit.

The great elder cupped his hands and said: "Headmaster Chu, Brother Shen...after the matter is completed, I should give you a generous gift..."

The great elder's hand was hidden in his sleeve, and he secretly made a number of spiritual stones so that the two old men could see it.

 The two people's eyes lit up.

The old man named Shen is the ancestor of the Shen family in the nearby Sishui City, a family of formations, and an early-stage Jindan cultivator.

His originally cold face immediately broke out into a smile, and his tone was very familiar:

"The Great Elder is too polite, but disrespectful, yet disrespectful..."

 After that, the ancestor of the Shen family said seriously again:

"The Taoist court is unified, and the monks act according to the rules. No matter how powerful they are, they must act according to the rules. As the saying goes, a strong dragon will not suppress a local snake. Don't worry, First Elder, I will handle this justice for you!"

 He is the ancestor of the Shen family.

The Shen family has a great cause and many disciples, and consumes a lot of spiritual stones. No amount is too much.

The great elder cursed in his heart, "You are an old man who is greedy for money." With a smile on his face, he raised his hands and praised:

 “Brother Shen's ancient ways are warm and heart-warming, I admire him!”

On the other side, the well-dressed Sect Leader Chu pondered for a moment, and then said after considering it for a moment:

“Brother, I don't want this spiritual stone.”

 Don't need spiritual stones…

The great elder was not only unhappy, but also alarmed.

 Just because he doesn't want the spiritual stone doesn't mean he really doesn't want it.

 It is very possible that the spirit stone is not to his liking.

This head of Chu is the supreme head of the Zhenxuan Sect. He is old and has abdicated the throne long ago. He has a false title, but he is highly respected in the sect and still keeps his word.

Zhenxuanmen is proficient in formations and doesn't value spirit stones that much.

As expected, Head Chu continued:

“It's not easy for your Five Elements Sect to earn some spiritual stones, so why am I so embarrassed to add insult to injury…”

 The ancestor of the Shen family next to him was unhappy.

What's the meaning?

 To ask for spiritual stones is to add insult to injury?

 But he has lived a long time, and he still has some time to cultivate his energy.

 An old face, full of wrinkles, with no trace of happiness or anger.

The great elder frowned, "Brother Chu..."

The head of Chu continued: "All I need is to borrow your Five Elements Mountain Protection Formation to take a look..." The great elder suddenly changed his expression and said hurriedly:

 “No, this will never work!”

 The formation diagram of the five elements protecting the mountain?

 You are thinking shit!

 How can I show you the formation map of the great formation?

Doesn't this mean that I've exposed all my family assets to you?

　This old man will never die!

 The great elder cursed in his heart.

The ancestor of the Shen family on the other side also said in a strange manner:

"Spiritual stones are something external to the body, formations are the foundation of one's life. It would be good to get some spiritual stones, but it would be a bit shameless to be greedy for other people's wealth..."

Headmaster Chu was not angry, but bargained:

 “I can only watch one product.”

 “Not even one product.”

 “Don't look at the array diagram of the example, just look at the simplified diagram.”

“Brother Chu, don't make things difficult for me...”

Head Chu then straightened his face and said, "Brother, you can't trust me?"

 “This is not a question of whether you believe it or not…”

 Headmaster Chu knew the great elder's concerns and said:

“The first-grade formation and the second-grade formation are very different in difficulty, and the formation patterns are very different. Even though the formation hubs are somewhat similar, they are still two completely different types of formations in essence..."

“What you Five Elements Sect has established is a second-grade formation.”

“I only looked at the first-level formation diagram, and it actually has no impact on your Five Elements Sect.”

 The great elder hesitated, "This..."

Head Chu sighed and said with emotion:

“Chu has no other aspirations in his life than to understand the formation map.”

"Now that your Five Elements Sect is in danger, I step forward and speak out for you. It is because of the past relationship between you and my sect..."

“Now that I'm making this small request, brother, you're trying to push back and prevaricate me. It's really chilling for me...”

Headmaster Chu looked disappointed.

 But the great elder knew in his heart that he was retreating in order to advance, taking the opportunity to threaten himself.

 If he was not shown the formation diagram, he would just stand by and not help them.

 The key point is that their Xuanmen formation is based on the formation method and is very powerful.

Wuxing Sect is gradually declining, but the Formation Xuanmen is working hard. Among the disciples in the sect, there are many formation geniuses.

If this guy named Chu doesn't help, it's really hard to say whether we will win or lose.

The disciples of the Five Elements Sect alone, as well as the geniuses of several other families such as the Shen family, really may not be able to compete with Mr. Zhuang and that pair of brother and sister.

The great elder thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said:

"Okay! For the sake of our two families and hundreds of years of love, I promise you!"

 The head of Chu looked happy.

The great elder then added: "However, you can only look at this formation diagram in this hidden formation pavilion, and you can only look at it for one day, and you are not allowed to take it away."

Head Chu frowned, "What can you tell in one day?"

Although there is only one level, it is a big formation after all...

 The array patterns are complex, the array hubs are deep and numerous, and there are many single arrays.

Although he is in the Golden Core realm, he is only a second-level high-level formation master. He is not very confident that he can master a first-level formation in one day.

Headmaster Chu thought about it again and felt that it was not that he was not very sure, but that he was not sure at all...

 “Three days!”

Leader Chu said: "In three days, I will take a look at this big formation diagram!"

 The great elder cursed again in his heart.

 Three days?

Is that just a look?

You looked at it for too long, didn't you?

 “Two days!” said the great elder.

 Headmaster Chu immediately made further progress, "Two and a half days!"

The great elder said firmly: "Just two days! If it doesn't work, forget it, I'll find someone else..."

"Okay!" Head Chu immediately agreed, "Two days! Just two days!"

The ancestor of the Shen family couldn't look down upon it and said without salt or indifference:

“They are all Jindan monks and ancestors of the sect. They are not bargaining hawkers in the market. They care about everything for a small profit..."

Although he said it in a weird way, he actually felt very regretful in his heart.

Had he known it earlier, he should have bargained!

The world is prosperous, and everyone is benefiting.

The world is full of hustle and bustle, all for the benefit of others.

 For the sake of spiritual stones, don't be shabby.

Take this opportunity to waste some words and get more benefits, which is better than anything else.

 What a pity, it's too late…

He can't slap himself on something he has already agreed to and then go back and raise the price.

　People can be shameless, but they cannot be so shameless...

 The ancestor of the Shen family sighed.

Then he felt a little strange in his heart. What could Sect Master Chu do if he didn't want to give up a large amount of spiritual stones in two days to see the first-grade Five Elements Mountain Protection Formation?

The ancestor of the Shen family glanced at Head Chu, his eyes somewhat meaningful, but he did not pursue it further.

After the interests were discussed, the great elder began to discuss the next arrangements:

“That man had three disciples in total.”

“Among the three, the youngest disciple is a first-grade formation master at a young age.”

“There are two other people, a pair of brothers and sisters, with astonishing aptitudes, whose details cannot be seen, and their level of formation is unknown, but since they are senior brothers and sisters, they must be even more unfathomable than that young apprentice.”

 “At least it's the first grade!”

“And he must be a senior first-level formation master!”

The Great Elder was a little embarrassed to say it, but he still said:

“That little formation master can still handle it with the strength of our Five Elements Sect.”

"But for his pair of amazingly talented senior brothers and sisters, we are not sure..."

The elder raised his hands to the head of Chu and the ancestors of the Shen family and said:

“At that time, I have to ask the Formation Xuanmen and the talented disciples of the Shen family to help me, win the battle, and preserve the inheritance of my Five Elements Sect!”

The head of Chu nodded and said, "This is natural."

 He also wanted to take this opportunity to show off the strength of Zhenxuanmen's formation.

 Let everyone know that after the decline of the Five Elements Sect, they formed the Xuanmen and were the real leaders in the formation.

The Five Elements Sect set up a stage and they sang operas.

　　It couldn't be more appropriate.

The ancestor of the Shen family was thinking about the large amount of spiritual stones and the first-grade Five Elements Mountain Protection Formation, but he was a little confused. He couldn't help but frown and asked the elder:

“That man's disciple is really that powerful, and is it worth paying such a high price for you?”

 The great elder's eyebrows jumped.

In the past, the Five Elements Sect had a large number of talented people, so it was naturally not afraid to compete with Mr. Zhuang's disciples - unless these disciples really had Mr. Zhuang's unparalleled understanding and talent...

 The great elder sighed in his heart.

To be fair, they cannot compare with Mr. Zhuang.

 But again, for so many years, there has only been one Mr. Zhuang.

Mr. Zhuang's disciple is not Mr. Zhuang after all. No matter how powerful he is, there will always be a limit.

 The great elder then had the idea of ​​​​discussing the Tao and competing in formations.

Although the Five Elements Sect is not good, the chief elder is unwilling to admit it. He has ruined his face and lost his prestige, so he said:

“Their talents are extremely good, but we can only know the level of their formations by comparing them...”

“It's possible that he is not the opponent of my Five Elements Sect disciples…”

 The great elder began to flatter himself, and then said tactfully:

“However, it is related to the inheritance of the sect. It is a serious matter, so I have to be cautious and act carefully to avoid accidents and the inheritance of the sect falling into the hands of others.”

 “Even if you pay some price, it's worth it!”

 Headmaster Chu and the ancestor of the Shen family also nodded.

Even if they look down on the Five Elements Sect's formation level now, the great elder's thinking makes it okay.

 It is a matter of top-secret inheritance of the sect, no matter how cautious it is, it is right.

Head Chu said: "Don't worry, Great Elder, the Five Elements Sect is named after the Five Elements Spiritual Formation. This sect will definitely stay in the Five Elements Sect, and no one can learn it!"

The great elder was overjoyed, "Thank you so much, Master Chu!"

The ancestor of the Shen family frowned and said: "But if you dare to covet the Jue Formation, these disciples must have great talents."

 Headmaster Chu said calmly: "It doesn't matter!"

 He sneered, "The formation is extensive and profound. It requires both talent and hard work. Even if you have talent, you can't be proficient in everything."

“Array patterns, array hubs, array eyes, array principles, and some profound array methods, it is impossible to cover everything.”

 “A ruler is longer, an inch is shorter.”

“No matter how talented the formation master is, they are all the same.”

"If Mr. Zhuang's disciples are average in strength, we will defeat them openly, teach them how to do things, and let them realize the profoundness of the formation and the mystery of the formation."

 “Let them understand that there is heaven outside the sky and there are people outside the world.”

 “If they are indeed talented and have excellent formations...”

“Then use your own strengths to attack the other party's weaknesses!”

"We have so many disciples, each of whom is good at it. There is always something better than them. In this way, we can beat them."

“Although there are some victories without force, the inheritance of the sect is a big matter, so there is no need to stick to these details.”

“Winning means winning, losing means losing.”

"Since you dare to come to learn formations, you must be mentally prepared. If your skills are inferior to others, they have no shame in reasoning!"

 The great elder nodded and praised: "Okay!"

The ancestor of the Shen family also stroked his beard and called him "Shan".

 After the discussion, they sat upright and waited for Mr. Zhuang and others.

 The bustling disciples in the Zangzhen Pavilion gradually became quiet...

 Half an hour later, Mr. Zhuang, together with Mo Hua and the other three, walked into the Tibetan Formation Pavilion in front of everyone.

The Zangzhen Pavilion was even quieter in an instant, and you could hear a needle drop.

The three Jindan ancestors, who were closing their eyes to rest, all opened their eyes. Their old eyes were full of light, and they looked at the people who came in.

 This is Mr. Zhuang!

 Sure enough, his celestial spirit is unparalleled in the world.

The man and woman behind are the brother and sister?

 Sure enough, he has the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, and his integrity is impeccable.

 The one at the back...

 The three of them were stunned.

 Why do you look so small?

Even though they had known about it beforehand, it was a little formation master who was about ten years old and had a rank of first rank, but seeing it with their own eyes now, they still found it unbelievable.

 Is this a first-grade formation master?

 Are you kidding...

 They discussed it seriously for a long time, and the result was this little kid.

 Comparing with him, isn't it bullying?
