Chapter 9: Pros and Cons of Formation; Cultivation Method

On the second day, at 11:00 a.m., in the training room.

Su Ming sat cross-legged on the stone bed with his eyes closed, his expression calm, neither happy nor sad, and a faint blue light occasionally shone on his face.

Now that he had chosen the main training method, the first thing Su Ming had to do was to get started with the "Heavy Water Mysterious Art" and complete the transformation from "Water Spirit Art" to "Heavy Water Mysterious Art".

Cultivation is the most important foundation for a cultivator, and other things have to come later.

As the Water Virtue Array in the body operated, other attribute auras were rejected by the Water Virtue Array, and the training room was filled with rich water attribute auras of heaven and earth.

The Water Virtue Array was originally deduced based on the Water Element Gathering Spirit Array, and naturally included all its array characteristics, and the effect had reached the second-level level.

However, there is no perfect method in the world, and the same is true for the method of carving an array with one's body.

The array master uses the power of heaven and earth to set up the array, and the power and range can reach the extreme, but it must be prepared in advance and cannot be formed in an instant.

If the formation is arranged with the formation diagram and the formation plate, the formation time will be greatly reduced and the practicality will be greatly increased, but the power and range of the formation will inevitably be limited and cannot be brought into full play.

The method of carving the formation with the body naturally has advantages and disadvantages.

After completing the method of carving the formation with the body, Su Ming himself is a walking second-grade upper-grade formation, and the Water Virtue Formation can be formed in a thought, which can be said to directly omit the formation.

However, since the eye of the formation is the cultivator himself, the formation pattern and the spiritual power circuit are carried by the flesh and the consciousness. After the Water Virtue Formation is opened, it will not only continuously consume Su Ming's mana, but its power will naturally be limited by the cultivation level.

For now, with Su Ming's cultivation in the early stage of foundation building, the Water Virtue Formation can only exert the power of the second-grade lower grade. When his cultivation level is further improved, the power of the Water Virtue Formation will also rise accordingly.

As for the method of using spirit stones to replace the consumption of the Water Virtue Formation, Su Ming used the River Map Space to simulate and deduce tens of thousands of times, and the conclusion is.

At present, it is completely impossible!

The unrefined spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the spirit stone is too violent. If Su Ming directly uses the spirit stone to activate the Water Virtue Array, his final fate is that his meridians are broken and his body collapses.

You should know that even if the body is as strong as a monster, it will not directly devour the spirit stone, but absorb and refine the spiritual energy in it like a cultivator, not to mention Su Ming.

For Su Ming, the mana consumed by relying on the Water Virtue Array for cultivation is not large, which is completely acceptable. Only when he is at full strength will the Water Virtue Array consume mana quickly.

However, normally, Su Ming will not activate the Water Virtue Array except for cultivation. As a trump card, this defect of carving the array with his body is completely within his acceptable range.

The top-level method of "Heavy Water Mysterious Art" has a total of nine levels, and each three levels correspond to the early, middle and late stages of foundation building.

Every time you practice a level, you will naturally condense a drop of rootless heavy water. After practicing to the ninth level, nine drops of rootless heavy water will naturally condense in your body, and the mana is as heavy as a hundred pounds.

However, if he wants to reach the Golden Core Stage, he must condense at least three more drops of rootless heavy water, so that the mana in his body can reach a thousand pounds before he can barely reach the threshold.

The content of the first level of the technique emerged in his mind, and Su Ming had already memorized it by heart.

When his mind gradually settled down and entered a state of oblivion, Su Ming moved his consciousness to control the mana in his body to circulate along the meridian route of the first level of the "Heavy Water Mysterious Technique".

After opening the Water Virtue Formation, the mana in Su Ming's body was also transformed into a "black water"-like form, and its weight had reached a hundred pounds.

Because the Water Virtue Body is unique to Su Ming, there is no experience of predecessors to refer to when practicing the technique, and the mana in Su Ming's body circulates very slowly.

If you encounter a blocked meridian that has never been used by mana, you should use the grinding skill to slowly control the mana to open it. The whole process should be cautious, and never force it.

Opening up the meridians is a slow and meticulous process that does not allow for any mistakes. If the meridians are damaged, not only will it take time to repair, but the well-repaired meridians will often become more blocked and difficult to open.

The top-level practice is extremely dangerous. Su Ming is not short of patience. He firmly grasps the word "stable" and does not seek to make achievements but to avoid mistakes.

However, the "Black Water" magic power is extremely overbearing. Although Su Ming tries to slow down the pace, the speed of opening up the blocked meridians is not slow at all.

When changing to practice, the benefits of practicing basic spiritual techniques are reflected.

All changes remain the same!

As a basic spiritual technique that has been passed down since ancient times and continuously improved by generations of sages, even the "Heavy Water Mysterious Art" has not deviated from the scope of the "Water Spirit Technique" technique, but it has nine new meridians more than the "Water Spirit Technique" small Zhoutian.

Because the meridians of the techniques are connected, Su Ming's practice process is smoother. The mana in his body is lost very little during the practice process, becoming more pure and more "black".

However, even so, it took Su Ming seven days and seven nights to completely open up the first level of the "Heavy Water Mysterious Art".

After all the meridians were completely opened and the first level of the technique was circulated twelve times, Su Ming's mana lake began to boil, and the black mana was gradually vaporized.

Su Ming noticed the change in the mana lake, not only did he not panic, but a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and he continued to practice to speed up the "evaporation" speed of the mana lake.

After 200 drops of the 300 drops of liquid mana "evaporated", a black vortex formed above the mana lake. As the black vortex continued to rotate and dissipate, the last black spirit bead the size of a rice grain floated above the mana lake.

This thing is the most important foundation of "Heavy Water Mysterious Art": rootless heavy water!

Condensing the first drop of rootless heavy water means that Su Ming has successfully cultivated the first level of "Heavy Water Profound Art".

Seeing that the rootless heavy water was condensed successfully, Su Ming's eyes were full of joy. He tried to use his consciousness to control the rootless heavy water and let it slowly sink to the bottom of the lake of mana.

As soon as his consciousness touched the rootless heavy water, Su Ming's face suddenly changed.

Heavy!

This was Su Ming's only thought at this time.

This rootless heavy water weighed at least a thousand pounds. If it was not of the same origin as Su Ming, it would not be shaken by his consciousness alone.

Fortunately, Su Ming's consciousness was far superior to that of the cultivators of the same level and was close to the late stage of foundation building. Otherwise, it would take a lot of effort to control the rootless heavy water.

As the rootless heavy water fell into the lake of mana, Su Ming clearly felt that his whole body became heavier.

Through his consciousness, he roughly estimated that the mutated mana, which had already reached a hundred pounds, had become about ten pounds heavier.

Don't underestimate this ten pounds. Su Ming knew that this was just the beginning.

The rootless heavy water would resonate with each other. The more it was, the greater the impact on the mana. Twelve drops were enough to make the mana weigh a thousand pounds.

As the cultivation and skills continue to improve, the danger level of each condensation of rootless heavy water will increase.

If you overestimate your physical strength, you may not be able to save your life in time even if you disperse your skills.
