Chapter 137 – Li Fan Si Worships His Master [Request for First Booking!
Li Fan had a premonition that an ordinary late stage Qi Refining cultivator, if he forcefully read the contents in this Mountain and River Hundred Veins Formation Diagram.
Then the raging flow of information in it would burst his brain without a doubt.
Even if Li Fan’s mental strength was a bit higher than that of an ordinary cultivator, he probably wouldn’t end up any better.
At that moment, he withdrew his divine sense and solemnly received it into his storage ring.
“How did you learn about formations?” Gong Bo Yu asked in passing.
Li Fan pondered for a moment, “The latecomer has been studying for two years and has gained slightly. But to what extent has it been mastered, senior doesn’t know.”
Gong Bo Yu said, “This is good!”
He then took out a small, pitch-black orb and threw it over, “Just detach a strand of your divine sense and enter it.”
Li Fan scrutinized the black, seemingly starlight flowing on the surface of the orb again, and then did as he was told.
In an instant, Li Fan seemed to be in a pitch-black tunnel.
Thoughts were like being on a roller coaster, gliding rapidly through the tunnel.
One array of questions and answers came crashing head-on, and Li Fan couldn’t help but respond in an instant.
If he knew, and the answer was correct, the speed of his thoughts was accelerated again.
If he didn’t know, or responded incorrectly, then the speed of his thoughts would be reduced.
This feeling of the speed of thought being amplified a hundredfold was somewhat similar to the Enlightenment in the Heavenly Xuan Mirror.
But it was much more divinely effective.
After such a period of time, Li Fan felt his thoughts getting slower and slower, and finally stopped completely.
Banished from the black ball.
Gong Bo Yu retrieved the black ball, looked at the faintly visible light spot on it, and looked at Li Fan with incredulous eyes, “You really studied for two years?”
Li Fan’s face was unchanged: “Indeed.”
After a moment of silence, Gong Bo Yu kindly consoled, “Formation together, it really depends too much on talent. It is normal for you to progress slower. There is no need to be concerned.”
Li Fan thought deeply and nodded slightly.
Who knew that Gong Bo Yu’s words had angered another cultivator present.
“What bullshit reasoning? The Dao of Formation is only in the word of diligence! Your Gong Bo Yu’s talent for the Dao of Formation is high, but do you dare to say that your understanding of formations exceeds mine?”
Li Fan looked over and saw that the person who spoke had snow-white hair, but a pair of eyes that contained a dark light that made people not dare to look directly at them.
“Brother Zhiliang, don’t be so grumpy. I am also just comforting the juniors and casually speaking. Why be so serious? On the Ten Thousand Immortals Island, who doesn’t know that you, Zhang Zhiliang, are number one in formations?” Gong Bo Yu was somewhat helpless.
“The way of formations is as diligent and true as it gets, how can you say anything rashly!” Zhang Zhiliang snorted coldly, clearly not dealing with Gong Bo Yu’s words.
He turned his head and looked at Li Fan seriously, “Kid, you must not be discouraged. You should know that when I first learned formation for two years, the results of the Sense Spirit Orb quiz were not as good as yours!”
“Over the past five hundred years, I have spent almost all of my time studying formations, bit by bit, slowly learning and progressing. Only then did I have today’s understanding of the Dao of Formation. Diligence can make up for clumsiness, and in the Dao of Formation, it’s even more so.”
“Although the world’s formations are claimed to have an infinite number of variations, the common definitions used in them are limited in number, and manpower is enough to become proficient in them.”
“If you study it attentively, don’t slack off and don’t give up. In a few hundred years, how do you know that you won’t become a generation of formation masters?”
Li Fan heard this and looked solemn: “Thank you senior for your guidance, I will definitely keep it in mind.”
Zhang Zhiliang also gradually calmed down after finishing his speech.
He scrutinized Li Fan for a while, and then resumed slowly, “Although it is said that diligence can make up for clumsiness, it is also very important for the master to lead the way.”
“When I first learned Formation on my own, I was well aware of how difficult it was to grope around on my own.”
Zhang Zhiliang pondered for a moment, “I see that you are calm and steady, not arrogant or impatient. Quite similar to me back then.”
“I have also benefited greatly from this volume of He Zhenghao’s Mountain and River Hundred Veins Formation Diagram. You brought the remnants of the scroll, and I count myself as having been favored by you.”
“……”
He slowly asked, “I don’t know, are you willing to follow me around and learn about formations?”
Gong Bo Yu sniffed from the side and hurriedly prompted, “Why don’t you thank Master Zhang!”
Li Fan was also extremely surprised in his heart and bowed hurriedly.
Zhang Zhiliang accepted Li Fan’s salute openly and then said, “Let’s say the ugly words up front, I am unwilling to accept a disciple. So there will be no master and disciple name between us.”
“The unique formation I created will naturally not be taught to you either.” “I’m only responsible for leading you to truly enter this formation discipline. Some of the sensory insights I will not hide.”
“With the busy schedule of various trivial matters, I can only take the time to instruct you.”
“I am meticulous in my work on a regular basis, and I am extremely strict with others. If you are found to be lazy or slacking off, you will definitely be expelled without mercy.”
……
Zhang Zhiliang spelled out a series of conditions that sounded harsh but actually made sense.
Finally, he asked again, “In that case, would you like to follow me around and learn about formations?”
Li Fan put away the surprise in his heart and composed himself.
Re-bowing towards Zhang Zhiliang, he slowly said, “Late generation is willing.”
Zhang Zhiliang looked at Li Fan’s performance and stroked his beard in satisfaction.
“Good, hard work does not choose the time.”
“Learning about formations will begin today!”
Saying this, Zhang Zhiliang grabbed Li Fan and with a flash of his body, he disappeared into this council room.
Gong Bo Yu and the other formation masters looked at each other and all revealed a bitter smile.
……
Li Fan followed Zhang Zhiliang and in a blink of an eye, arrived in a starry sky.
It was pitch black all around, with countless twinkling stars in the background.
“Do you know what a formation is?” Zhang Zhiliang asked.
Li Fan was about to answer, but after thinking about it, he finally shook his head, “Disciple does not know.”
“A formation is a formulated law.”
Zhang Zhiliang said word for word.
“Burning, icing, lightning ……”
“These are all natural phenomena that exist in heaven and earth, and what supports their occurrence and operation are the various laws of heaven and earth.”
“Laws that remain unchanged throughout time. Well, except for certain special circumstances ……”
“Cultivation by cultivators often involves observing and sensing the laws of heaven and earth as well.”
“And formations, is the process of systematizing, mechanizing, and standardizing the use of laws.”
……
During Zhang Zhiliang’s narration, the door to the Dao of Formation slowly opened to Li Fan.
Li Fan was deeply immersed in it, not realizing the passage of time.
In the blink of an eye, it came to the anchoring 20 years.
Cong Yunhai.
Zhang Haobo stood in mid-air and looked up.
“Your dying blow, is it about to come.”
In his last life, as he remembered, a terrifying windstorm would occur shortly afterward.
Its might was so strong that it taught heaven and earth to change color.
More than two hundred islands, including Dayu Island, were razed to the ground, and an unknown number of mortals’ souls returned to the sea.
Compared to this horrendous wind disaster, the storm he was currently maneuvering was pathetically weak.
But ……
He, Zhang Haobo, the reborn, the son of destiny, the Cong Yunhai Favored One.
is about to perform the act of a snake swallowing an elephant, and then ……
Shepherd’s Wind!
Ling Wanxian!
