Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 18: Arrangement

In the past, Tang Jie used to set up small formations. He could just find a location and then arrange the rest according to the principles of the formation. But this time he was going to set up a super large formation, and everything was no longer that simple.

The size of the formation itself has nothing to do with the grade, only the effective range.

But that being said, in fact, the larger the formation, the higher the requirements for alignment ability. This is like the difference between a bungalow and a skyscraper. When the number rises to a certain level, a quantitative change will lead to a qualitative change. Its complexity is far beyond what ordinary small arrays can compare with.

The positioning of the eight gates alone involves dozens of miles around Laoya Ridge. In other words, the distance between the eight gates may be several miles long. Such a long distance will definitely have an impact on the accuracy, which will have an impact on the power, and it may even be impossible to form an array.

Tang Jie's visit to Laoya Ridge this time was definitely not just for the Fire Crow Spirit as he said, but with a larger purpose. This purpose even required him to use a large area that covered the entire Laoya Ridge for dozens of miles. Array.

This kind of large-scale formation was the first time even for Tang Jie.

For this reason, Tang Jie also had to draw a map first, and then simulate it repeatedly on the map. Not only did he need to measure accurately, but he also had to observe the terrain to see if it was suitable for use.

In addition to being difficult to position, large-scale formations also have the problem of huge material consumption.

The larger the scope, the more materials are consumed. Such a large-scale formation, even using the most common materials, could bankrupt Tang Jie.

Tang Jie naturally cannot afford such a large amount of money. Fortunately, he studied under Xu Muyang, and he pays attention to the way of nature. The formation way is integrated with nature and uses the power of heaven and earth to perform actions, so there are still ways to use tricks. . However, in this case, the terrain requirements are high.

For example, if he wants to set up the extremely fiery prison formation, the Death Gate needs the main fire. In order to make the Death Gate host fire, it cannot be deployed in a place with mountain springs. Not only that, but the water source must be blocked through the Dumen transformation. To make the door of death far away from the water, the best way is to stand on the lower **** of the west **** of the ridge. However, the opening of the door corresponds to the Door of Death. If the Door of Death were built here, the door would have to be on a slope.

Looking at his position, he is on the Xiangji Cave.

Tang Jie naturally did not think that he could deploy the formation at the door of Phantom Demon Fox's house without being noticed, so he had to give up the extremely fiery prison formation and try other formations.

No matter how he changed the formation, he couldn't get around the threshold of Xiangji Cave.

It was like a wedge, firmly fixed on Laoya Ridge, making it impossible for all of Tang Jie's ideas to be implemented. Tang Jie was so angry that he had to curse: "Damn it, I actually took over the place. No wonder no formation master has come to clean it up in all these years!"

The formation path has extremely high requirements on terrain, so it has extremely detailed classification and description of the terrain.

In "The True Interpretation of Formation Dao" written by Xu Muyang to Tang Jie, there is a special chapter on terrain that explains the impact of various terrains on the formation.

The so-called return place refers to the place of return to origin, which is the most core place among all terrains.

Occupying the home ground means occupying the most critical position on this land, and no array arrangement can bypass this place. On the other hand, the opponent can use this to gain advantageous terrain, and even counterattack is not impossible.

It is like a turning point in a war or the winning hand in Go, with great significance and far-reaching influence.

This Xiangji Cave's immortality was actually based on Lao Yaling's return status, causing Tang Jie's plan to deal with the phantom fox to encounter a major setback from the very beginning.

That's right, Tang Jie's real goal is naturally not the crow fire spirit, but the phantom fox itself.

If Qin Zhou, Wei Tianchong and others knew about this purpose, they would be scared to death.

You must know that this phantom demon fox is not another existence. It is a monster with high-level intelligence and only one step to transform. Its strength is equivalent to the pinnacle of transcendence. Even in Nanbaicheng, Gu Changqing and others cannot match it, not to mention that there are a bunch of little demons under this demon fox, and there are also some enlightened beings among them.

With Tang Jie's current strength, it would be many times more difficult to destroy this group of monsters than when one man was on the road to destroying demons.

For this reason, Tang Jie put his hope in the formation. This was also his only chance to transcend levels and create miracles. Unexpectedly, he encountered this kind of thing.

"Is it a coincidence, or does this demon fox also have access to the formation? Logically it shouldn't be..." Looking at the terrain on the map, Tang Jie was also frowning and muttering to himself. There is no reason for a wild fox to understand the formation.

Thinking of this, he looked carefully, and all the terrain on the map came into view. His mind gradually became clearer, and Tang Jie continued to mutter to himself: "The land is occupied, the land is sitting and looking at it, the powerful land is still there, there are no soldiers in the important land, and the living land is still there. The disconnection... must be just a coincidence, otherwise it would be impossible to just occupy the homeland."

There are eleven important places in the formation and terrain chapter, the most important of which is the return place, which is the place where the magic array returns to its source; the second is the sitting place, which has the power of sitting and looking at the eight wastelands, and all things are in the heart; the third is the positioning place, which is promising Qi captures the momentum, which has the effect of winning in battle; once again, the important place has the ability to strengthen magic and flourish; once again, it has the ability to retreat and escape from the living place...

Now Xiangji Cave only occupies the returning land, but not the sitting land, the positioning land, the living land, and the important land. From this, Tang Jie judged that this demon fox was purely lucky. The scenery around Xiangji Cave is very beautiful, and the demon fox probably chose this place because of it.

Whether it was a coincidence or intentional, this was always a big trouble for Tang Jie. For this reason, Tang Jie couldn't help but fall into deep thinking, looking for a solution, and his eyes kept wandering around the map: " The home ground is occupied and it is difficult to form a large formation. The only way is to reduce the scope and find another battlefield. But in this case, the fox must be lured out..."

"Isn't that too risky?" Yiyi was startled.

The small scale is not only dangerous for luring the enemy, but most importantly, it is difficult to place all targets in the formation during the process of luring the enemy into the enemy. Once the formation is activated, the monsters outside will be alert and will never enter again.

Not only will there be fewer monsters trapped in this way, these monsters will be more likely to attack the formation from the outside and destroy it.

However, for Tang Jie, he had no choice.

If you want to create a miracle, you must take big risks, and he didn't expect the trip to be smooth sailing.

"There are always risks." Tang Jie said calmly.

Yiyi was frightened after hearing this and threw herself into Tang Jie's arms: "Brother, if it doesn't work, let's forget it."

Tang Jie said categorically: "No, if I want to deceive the Tianshen Palace, I must have an external incarnation. This demon fox is the only one who can help me do it now."

For Tang Jie, the biggest difficulty in entering the secret land of Tiandu Mountain is not breaking the formation, but how to avoid the surveillance of Tianshen Palace.

It is impossible to hide the ordinary art of disguise and transformation from the Tianshen Palace. The only way is to incarnate outside the body.

But the external incarnation can only be mastered by the Tianxin level. With Tang Jie's current strength, he would not be able to possess it in another hundred years, so Tang Jie could only turn to others to ask for help, and this phantom fox was his chosen target.

The phantom demon fox has a thousand changes in talent. After killing it, you can obtain its demon elixir. With this object supplemented with soul jade fragments and then refined with secret methods, you may get an external incarnation.

Tang Jie got this method from the Supreme Heart Sutra of the Supreme Heavenly Treasure. The Five Gods Sect is proficient in the secret method of the soul. Even puppets can embody the soul, so there is no problem in creating a substitute. Of course, this method is far inferior to the real external incarnation. There is no possibility of cultivation and the strength will be weakened. It can only be regarded as an external substitute, but the possibility of being exposed is greatly reduced.

According to the Heart Sutra, unless a powerful person at the Zifu level personally visits such a substitute, or someone who understands the way of insight is willing to observe it, ordinary Tianxin level people will not be able to tell the authenticity.

But it is not easy to achieve this step. It is not easy for the phantom demon fox to open up high-level intelligence, but it is precisely because of this that he has to do it.

If a big sect like Tianshen Palace wanted to use some trick to deceive them, it might be possible once, but definitely not again. After suffering a loss at the hands of Tang Jie, it is conceivable that Tianshen Palace will definitely become cautious towards Tang Jie.

As long as a large organization is cautious enough, there is no way to deceive them in theory. After all, if you work together and work together, the other party can think of any method you can think of.

The reason why wrong judgments occur is because there are too many answers and there are no answers. Therefore, when making decisions, decision makers often try to eliminate unlikely answers.

Miracles are usually based on these "impossibility".

Tang Jie stayed at Xiyue Academy for four years and gradually understood the behavioral patterns of this world.

When it comes to ideas, the people here may be limited by the times, but when it comes to the deceitful tricks and intrigues between people, the people here are no weaker than the world they once lived in.

Tang Jie absolutely does not believe that Tianshen Palace would not think of using methods such as avatars, so ordinary methods are absolutely ineffective against them. Only by incarnation can it be possible to deceive the opponent.

Because in the eyes of Tianshen Palace, this falls into the "impossible category" of Tang Jie, so they will hardly take action against it.

For this reason, if Tang Jie wants to create a "big miracle" that defeats the Tianshen Palace, he must first create a "small miracle" that defeats the demon fox. Through the accumulation of countless small miracles, he will build the future big miracle.

Having made up his mind, Tang Jie made new plans.

This time it was much easier, and Tang Jie quickly found the place he needed.

The soil **** on the west side of Laoya Ridge.

There are cliffs and steep slopes here, steep mountains, flowing springs and waterfalls, dense jungles, and fire crow spirits scattered everywhere. The five elements have four elements. As long as you find a place that can replace the gold element, you can make it. Create a powerful formation of at least level 3. There are no mineral veins on Laoya Ridge, but they can be replaced by materials. Tang Jie was prepared before coming and brought a batch of ores.

While finding the location, the required magic circle naturally appeared.

Yimu Tianqing Formation.

This is a third-grade magic circle. The reason why we chose it is that the terrain in this area is suitable for this formation. ~IndoMTL.com~ The second reason is that this formation is average in terms of damage, but it is excellent in defense and trapping. Since it is destined not to trap all targets in the formation this time, the defensive ability of the formation itself is more important. The third is that Yiyi's flower formation can be put into better use here.

The plan was decided, Tang Jie put away the map and walked towards the hillside.

With his clear eyes and his carefulness along the way, he didn't encounter any trouble. Tang Jie quickly arrived at the location and started setting up.

Time passed little by little, the hillside was dotted with green light, thorns grew densely, spiritual energy surged slightly, and water flowed gurglingly.

Tang Jie is like a wanderer in the mountains. Everywhere he goes, he will carefully position himself and cast spells with all his heart. Yiyi is responsible for looking for the fire crow spirit. She is a spirit creature and can naturally deal with plants. , so it is particularly convenient for finding things, and with a clear eye, I quickly found three pieces of Fire Crow Essence. It's a pity that the Fire Crow Spirit on Laoya Ridge found one piece missing, so even after Yiyi found three pieces, she couldn't find any more.

Tang Jie didn't care. Yimu Tianqing Formation didn't have much demand for fire-attribute materials, as long as it could support the operation of the array.

Since the scale of the magic circle this time is much larger than before, it is particularly difficult and time-consuming to set up.

Finally, I was lucky this time, and there were no accidents along the way. By the time the sun was getting dark, the prototype of the Yimu Azure Formation was basically completed, and the next thing to do was to add and improve some details.

Of course, this is also related to the small scale of Tang Jie's current array. The scale of the current array is only one-tenth of the original plan. If he had followed his original plan, it would have taken at least seven or eight days to complete. A large formation surrounding the entire Laoya Ridge.

Seeing that the magic circle was about to be completed at this moment, Tang Jie felt much more relaxed. At this time, Yiyi ran over with a handful of white grass in her hand and said excitedly: "Brother, look, it's Bai Fu!"
