Chapter 125: Testing Out the Formation Plates
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
His current cultivation was not very balanced. He spent most of his time using the cultivation chant.
The [Soul-Refining Art] and the [Vajra Seal] were both cultivation techniques that would cost him a lot of time.
Because of that, the time that he had for cultivating magical arts. While he had cultivated the spiritual plant aspect of the five-seeds cultivation technique, as he did not have the subsequent parts of it, he could not make any more progress in it. However, he would still spend some time every day to cultivate his finger techniques to prevent them from deteriorating.
As for the [Departing Water Sword Art], after he had merged it with his sword intent, he realized that there was a huge difference between his. version of it and the description on the jade slip.
The things in this book were no longer suitable for his new sword intent. Unfortunately, it was very difficult to fuse sword intents together, let alone separate them.
The only thing that made Li Ming happy was that his sword intent was much stronger than before.
As for the others, they were all pill refinement and artifact refinement techniques.
When it came to pill refinement, there was no need to talk about it. Shi Fengrong did not have that much time to teach him, so she simply gave him jade slips.
She even removed the restrictions on some jade slips that required cultivation so that Li Ming could read them at will.
This undoubtedly benefited Li Ming greatly. He became much more familiar with the usage of the stalagmite fire, and he had discovered many of its secrets.
Although he still could not fully understand many things due to his cultivation realm, his state of mind and knowledge were different from before.
As for artifact refinement, he could be considered even more of an expert, just that his specialty lay in refining materials.
As for the others, there was no need to say anything. They were too bad. However, he felt that using his fire seed to refine a magic treasure might be a good choice.
When he was free, he would also look through some jade slips on artifact refinement techniques that his Second Martial Uncle had collected.
From this point, it could be seen how rare the magical arts he had mastered were!
However, there was not much he could do. However, he could not tell the sect master. Otherwise, he would definitely be scolded.
His senior brothers and sisters would definitely teach him a lesson, telling him to focus on practicing his sword and not be too greedy.
A powerful swordsman should have the confidence to slash through everything with one sword.
However, Li Ming was not too keen on such a path. During this period of time, he did not study sword arts that much. He was a pragmatic person through and through. Everything he did was driven and decided by what he needed.
Ever since he was almost hunted down previously, he had done what he could to ensure that he would not fall into such a dire situation again.
If he wanted to earn spirit stones, he would work steadily.
He had spent a lot of time on formations before, but because he lacked effective methods, even though he was studying them, he did not have much interest in it.
But now that he had the formation plates, Li Ming’s train of thought became clear.
Outside the window was a brand new world.
Li Ming opened his eyes. The dark golden color on his body gradually faded.
If someone were to cut Li Ming’s skin, they would discover that there were pieces of golden fragments under his skin.
The “Bodily Golden Robe” of the [Vajra Seal] became increasingly solid the day, and the demonic pattern seemed to complement the [Vajra Seal] really well. Even Li Ming was shocked by the progress of the [Vajra Seal].
He originally thought that this [Vajra Seal] was a slow cultivation technique, but he did not expect that with the addition of a demonic pattern, there would actually be such a huge change.
According to this progress, it would not be long before he could cultivate to the fourth level, “Red Lotus Flowing Gold.” Unfortunately, Li Ming knew nothing about this, he only knew to refine his body.
While he did have the Bodily Golden Robe now, and ordinary flying swords would find it difficult to break through his skin, his encounter with the yin fiends made him aware of how vulnerable he still was.
Even though his body was invincible, he still had no way to fight back against a supreme sense attack.
Li Ming suddenly felt a sense of sadness. He had enough supreme sense, but he did not know how to use it.
At the same time, he had cultivated his physical body to the level of Bodily Golden Robe, but he had no idea how to use it. He knew the properties of the materials like the back of his hand, but he could not refine decent magical treasures.
Fortunately, he had already learned how to make formation plates. At least the formations he had learned had some use!
“Start working!” the tablet spirit shouted.
Without waiting for Li Ming’s reply, he threw the crystal out, and the man and the demon disappeared.
“Don’t forget our deal. Fifty heavily-injured yin fiends.” The tablet spirit then emphasized, “Alive!”
“I know,” said Li Ming lightly. Li Ming was very self-aware. He had to pay back his debt, and it was a debt he owed the tablet spirit. It was not that easy to get benefits from the tablet spirit.
These few days, he had already refined a large number of various types of formation plates. It was now the perfect time to use them to test their effects.
“There’s one over there.” The tablet spirit immediately perked up and floated to a corner. Li Ming followed closely behind.
A yin fiend silently floated in the corner. Li Ming realized that the mist on this yin fiend was much thicker than the previous one.
“What’s going on? It looks even more difficult to deal with than the previous one.”
The tablet spirit’s eyes were fixed on the yin fiend, and its saliva was about to flow out. It did not turn around and asked, “Where do you think we are? The yin fiends can absorb yin qi here every day, so of course they grew quickly.” Li Ming was enlightened.
This yin fiend was much stronger than the previous one. Soon, it noticed Li Ming and let out a shrill cry before charging at him.
Almost at the same time, it shot over a supreme sense spike. However, Li Ming was prepared this time. He chuckled and flipped his palm. A formation plate appeared in his hand and he casually threw it out!
As soon as the formation plate was thrown out, it was as if it had been thrown into water. Ripples appeared in the void before it disappeared without a trace.
The yin fiend that was not far from Li Ming suddenly stopped. It was motionless as if it had lost consciousness.
Because he wanted to see the effect of the formation, Li Ming was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he wandered around. The yin fiend in the formation did not react at all and only circled in place.
Li Ming could no longer hide the excitement in his eyes. His guess was right!
The tablet spirit had once told him the requirements for a yin fiend to form. Moreover, with the experience of the yin fiend using the supreme sense spikes to attack him, Li Ming was certain that these illusion-type formations were very effective against the yin fiends.
These yin fiends were all born from yin qi. Although they could use supreme sense spikes, their intelligence was not high, and they were easily confused by illusions and formations.
The formation that he threw out was called the Maze Formation. It was the most basic bewitching talisman that was specially used to make the enemy lose their sense of direction.
Due to the material, Li Ming could not make a more complicated Maze
Formation.
A second-grade illusion formation was not very effective in actual combat. For cultivators above foundation establishment, it was almost ineffective.
Moreover, the effect of a second-grade Maze Formation activated by formation plate would be greatly reduced..
