Chapter 316: The Secret of the Spirit-locking Formation
Chapter 314 – The Secret of the Spirit Locking Array
It was different from the unusual quiz.
Because the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation pivot was very rare, it was impossible to mobilize all of the thousands of pivots in quantity to Tianyu Prefecture just for a single quiz.
Therefore, this formation practice test was not conducted by all the formation dao students at the same time, but rather in groups of fifty people, who were tested sequentially in groups.
The order in which they took the test was their usual combined test scores.
Li Fan was ranked in the middle of the pack, so he didn’t have to wait too long.
The Tian Xuan Spirit Locking Formation was on a grand scale, even if one was a genius, if one wanted to build it completely, it wouldn’t be possible without a few years.
After all, it was just a quiz to test the level of the crowd’s array formation, so it was impossible to really waste so much time.
So the specific rule was to build the central core structure of the formation as much as possible in seven days.
The final rankings would be determined by the actual deployment of the formation.
Li Fan was ranked in the sixth group, which meant that it was conservatively estimated that it would be more than forty days before it was his turn.
During the assessment period, it was likewise strictly forbidden to go out.
Only those students who had finished the examination were allowed to leave the Huan Yu Special Academy and relax in Tian Yu City.
However, with the previous lesson, they were also not allowed to leave Tianyu City.
While waiting, Li Fan studied the small black box that Zhang Zhiliang had given him.
Previously, Li Fan had also tried to crack it.
However, at that time, Zhang Zhiliang was not dead, and the small black box seemed to be shrouded with a layer of unknown prohibitions other than the sealing array, so Li Fan gave up for the time being after a few unsuccessful attempts.
Now that Zhang Zhiliang had fallen, Li Fan sensed that the layer of prohibition had also spontaneously disappeared.
It meant that it was time to open Zhang Zhiliang’s legacy.
It didn’t take much effort, and with a thin silver line lighting up on the small black box, the sealing formation was broken by Li Fan.
The contents inside also revealed its appearance, not much different from the twelfth generation.
The encrypted jade slip that recorded the Infinite Law, the Heart Ape Spice, the Sense Spirit Orb, the Legacy Tui, and the ordinary jade slip that recorded Zhang Zhiliang’s last words.
Li Fan first read up Zhang Zhiliang’s last words.
After a few moments, he looked emotional and put the jade slip down.
In his last words, Zhang Zhiliang briefly elaborated that he had coincidentally learned about the imminent descent of Red Flame into the Cong Yun Sea several years ago.
In order to be able to advance to the Harmonization Realm, he began a desperate plot.
If Li Fan was able to see the last words in the jade slip, it would mean that he had failed to merge with the Dao and died.
Zhang Zhiliang’s tone was filled with regret, but he also said that he would never regret it.
In the Great Battle of Tian Ling Zhou, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association cultivators fought each other and fell one after another like ants.
Zhang Zhiliang even saw with his own eyes that several cultivators who were usually friends with him died tragically in front of him.
The entire sky was occupied by the vision of falling cultivators.
Often, before the previous dead one could be seen, it was covered by the after-fallen cultivator’s visions.
In the midst of the war, Zhang Zhiliang’s pride of being a YuanYing Formation Master was completely crushed to pieces.
Not to mention the YuanYing, even the Spirit Transformation cultivators, in this great war, could only go with the flow and live or die by their fate.
“Under the Harmonized Dao, all are ants.”
As Zhang Zhiliang came to his senses, the infinite ambition to merge with the Dao was inevitably born in his heart.
He was lucky enough to survive and return to the Cong Yunhai, and he had an epiphany after his great calamity, advancing to the Transformation God realm.
And now that a heavenly opportunity happened to present itself, how could he possibly give it up?
Defeat is a death, he has long been prepared. Fear that his life’s learning [infinite law] disappeared, so he left the inheritance in advance.
……
Because most of the savings were used to create the array corona, the contribution left in this world’s legacy was a little less than before, only more than 200,000 points.
For the current Li Fan, it was only liao than nothing.
What Li Fan valued more was how Zhang Zhiliang’s Infinite Method in the Realm of Transformation was different than when he was a YuanYing.
Igniting the Heart Ape Spice, Li Fan picked up the encrypted jade slip with gold-colored inlays on all four corners and read it carefully.
After the Jindan realm, the strength of divine sense skyrocketed.
This time, without the feeling of vertigo, Li Fan quickly skimmed through the contents of the jade slip roughly.
With regards to the content of the original Infinite Law, Li Fan had long been familiar with it.
This time, when compared to this new version, he quickly noticed the differences, or rather the improvements.
The core concept of the Infinite Method was that the formation could constantly evolve and grow all the time.
The most crucial thing was the lack of a central core that could provide arithmetic support for the unlimited evolution of the formation.
In the twelfth life, due to the limitations of the YuanYing realm’s eyesight, Zhang Zhiliang did not explicitly say anything about the possible reference object for this core.
This time, however, Zhang Zhiliang was blunt that the most suitable to be used as the pivotal core of the Infinite Method was the Wanxian Alliance’s greatest treasure, the Tianxuan Mirror.
When countless cultivators of the Ten Thousand Years Alliance used the Tianxuan Mirror at the same moment, it did not experience any lag.
Not to mention that the Tianxuan Mirror was also responsible for regulating prices, controlling the flow of information, and other matters at the same time.
It could be seen that its data processing ability had reached such an unimaginably terrifying point.
And Tianxuan mirror has its own spiritual intelligence, is a perfect fit for the infinite law.
Previously, because of its unique position in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, Zhang Zhiliang hadn’t even thought about this aspect.
However, after the Great Battle of Tian Ling Zhou, the Tian Xuan Spirit Locking Formation came out of nowhere, but it inspired him.
“The Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation is a great attempt to combine Tianxuan Mirror’s own abilities and formations.”
“They all thought that the attempt was somewhat stone cold, but in my opinion, it was still a bit conservative.”
“However, the Tianxuan Mirror is simply too important, and once something goes wrong, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance will inevitably be thrown into violent turmoil. It’s only right to be cautious.”
“Even so, with the Tianxuan Mirror’s newborn mirror as the pivot of the formation, the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation has changed qualitatively compared to the rest of the formations in the world.”
“You received closed training in Tianyu Prefecture, so perhaps you already have an understanding of how to construct it.”
“However, you may not be clear about the true power of the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation.”
“In the Nine Mountains Prefecture, when the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation made its debut, I went there to feel it for myself.”
“When I saw those pillars of light that carried out heaven and earth light up, when the feeling of being watched and threatened all over my body loomed, when the fluctuations of the Heavenly Xuan Mirror swept over my body.”
“A sense of trembling from the depths of my soul was born.”
“Ji Hongdao and the others are true geniuses, creating true monsters.”
“Think about it, what will happen when one Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation after another is constructed, covering the entirety of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance’s territory?”
“When Tianxuan locks up the spirits, it’s hard for everything to escape. Everything that happens in the world, any little breeze, will fall into the sight of the Tianxuan Mirror without fail.”
“Cultivators in the world will no longer have any secrets to speak of in front of the Tianxuan Mirror.”
……
Li Fan couldn’t help but be creeped out when he read this.
